Overpowered by an intense sentiment of horror, unaccountable yet unendurable, I threw on my clothes with haste (for I felt that I should sleep no more during the night), and endeavored to arouse myself from the pitiable condition into which I had fallen, by pacing rapidly to and fro through the apartment.
Dominado por una intensa sensación de horror, inexplicable e insufrible, me vestí de prisa (pues sentía que no iba a serme posible dormir en toda la noche) y procuré, andando a grandes pasos por la habitación, salir del estado lamentable en que estaba sumido.
