Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. "Sir,” said the butler, turning to a sort of mottled pallor, "that thing was not my master, and there’s the truth. My master”—here he looked round him and began to whisper—"is a tall, fine build of a man, and this was more of a dwarf.” Utterson attempted to protest. "O, sir,” cried Poole, "do you think I do not know my master after twenty years? Do you think I do not know where his head comes to in the cabinet door, where I saw him every morning of my life? No, sir, that thing in the mask was never Dr. Jekyll—God knows what it was, but it was never Dr. Jekyll; and it is the belief of my heart that there was murder done.” Which theme does this passage best support?
Good will always prevail over evil.
Appearances shape people’s opinions.
Poole is frightened by Mr. Hyde’s appearance.
Mr. Utterson listens to the butler with concern.
