Enfield Chapter 1 - "I incline to Cain's heresy," he used to say quaintly: "I let my brother go to the devil in his own way."... frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of downgoing men
'Cain's heresy' = not caring about Brother. This is a sin, showing that Utterson is not a religious paragon. Biblical imagery to show how seriously Utterson follows class rules
Shows that men are judged by their reputation.
Enfield Chapter 5 - What!" he thought. "Henry Jekyll forge for a murderer!"
Exclamations emphasise surprise
Jekyll Chapter 9- Lanyon, my life, my honour, my reason, are all at your mercy
Triplet - emphasises need. Jekyll seems disreputable in this moment.
Chapter 3- Dr Jekyll was quite at ease
Surprising chapter title - we expect him to be worried/afraid. Structural feature
Jekyll Chapter 5- "I have had what is far more to the purpose," returned the doctor solemnly: "I have had a lesson—O God, Utterson, what a lesson I have had!" And he covered his face for a moment with his hands.
Jekyll doesn't tell truth. Exclamatives.
Hyde Chapter 1- 'I am naturally helpless. No gentleman but wishes to avoid a scene,'
Hyde begins somewhat caring about reputation. This disappears by chapter 4. Irony of calling himself a gentleman
Lanyon Chapter 6 - I am quite done with that person; and I beg that you will spare me any allusion to one whom I regard as dead."
Pronoun 'one' instead of saying name emphasises how greatly Lanyon is affected by seeing Hyde transform into Jekyll.
Enfield Chapter 1 - I was coming home from some place at the end of the world, about three o'clock of a black winter morning
Metaphor
Enfield doesn't say what he was doing at night - suggests disreputable action. Utterson doesn't enquire. Establishes Gothic atmosphere.
Enfield Chapter 1- "the more it looks like Queer Street, the less I ask."
Metaphor
Enfield avoids anything disreputable
Enfield Chapter 1- "I am ashamed of my long tongue. Let us make a bargain never to refer to this again."
Metaphor
Mr Enfield and Utterson agree to not discuss this - shows gentlemen avoiding disreputable events.
Chapter 7- But Mr. Enfield only nodded his head very seriously, and walked on once more in silence.
C7 Enfield doesn't speak to Utterson - avoiding bad reputation
