It was worth a trial, anyway, I concluded. And, despite the sceptical attitude of the scientist that was mine, I believed. I had no doubt I could do what Morrell said he had done three times. Perhaps this faith that so easily possessed me was due to my extreme debility. Perhaps I was not strong enough to be sceptical.
De todos modos, concluí que valía la pena intentarlo. Y, a pesar de la actitud escéptica del científico que llevo dentro de mí, creí. No tenía ninguna duda de que podía hacer lo que Morrell dijo haber experimentado tres veces. Quizás esta fe que me poseyó tan fácilmente se debió a mi extrema debilidad. Quizás no fui lo suficientemente fuerte para ser escéptico.
