The Part

An amazing event occurred, as I was making my way to the theater. On approaching the playhouse I saw my own self leaving a back-stage door. I appeared to be in beggars' rags. A strange and furtive figure I made, as I scuttled away from the bright lights into a dark alley. Intrigued and yet hesitant, I followed the doppelganger into the darkness, and from that night on I was never seen again. I'm told an understudy took my part in the play, but no one in the audience could tell the difference anyway.
