here, we were talkin abt lust, talkin abt beauty, immortal, nailin one's soul to the devil, talkin abt ugly stinky sick spirit, talkin abt lost, confession, cowardice... death...
the more lust u pursue, the more depraved u turn into...
Portrait - used to keep youth and beauty for eternity, the host might be vanished like ashes, but his portrait will stay and remain the same forever...
Lust - drives the host to sell his soul to devil for exchange of immortal beauty. when all the beloved ones hv gone, all the pleasure has been satisfied, lust's gone leaving the body an empty shell, the soul became stinky and none of u.. there's no heart left.. the human died already...
Death - another chance to reborn, to regain the clean good nature, perhaps...

i'm confused, i know all the dogma, but i'm still willin to fall, though i'm more of 'Henry', the 'Gray' without guts to go to hell..
