"He's going to eat an apple!" No sooner had Mary uttered these words and pointed at Tom, who was already posing theatrically with the fruit held out to himself as if it were Yorick's skull, than the room all at once fell silent. Everyone was looking on, mesmerised, not daring to breath. Tom had never before even touched an apple: no one had ever managed to make the fruit seem palatable to him, or even managed to get one within a few metres of him. But now, to prove his love to Mary, Tom had taken the apple, as Adam had from Eve's hand, and the last remaining moments of his life of virtue were slipping away.

"Ele vai comer uma maça!" Mal acabara Maria de dizer essas palavras, apontando para Tom, que em postura teatral segurava em uma das mãos a fruta como se ela fosse o crânio de Yorick, fez-se de repente silêncio na sala: todos pareciam estar fascinados; ninguém ousava respirar; porque até então Tom nunca havia tocado numa maçã; ninguém jamais conseguira fazer com que ele a achasse palatável, ou até dela se aproximasse mesmo a poucos metros de distância. Agora, porém, para provar a Maria seu amor, ele recebeu a maçã, como Adão a havia recebido da mão de Eva, e assim se passaram os últimos momentos de sua virtude.
