The Mirror

Matilda - "This was given to me by a powerful spirit. It allows me to spy on whomever I please, and I give it to you, Ambrosio, as a sign of my love and devotion to you. I will help you achieve what your heart desires through whatever means."

"'Amidst all my sorrows, amdist all my regrets for your coldness, I was sustained from despair by the virtues of this Talisman. On pronouncing certain words the Person appears in it, on whom the Observer's thoughts are bent : thus though I was exiled from your sight, you, Ambrosio, were ever present to mine.'" (Lewis, 270)
