"I will remove the roofs from the houses with my devilish power and, despite the darkness of the night, the interior will lie open before your eyes.

The sight was too new for him not to take up all his attention. He let his eyes wander in all directions, and the colorful variety of objects that surrounded him occupied his curiosity for a long time."
Alain-René Lesage: The Devil upon Two Sticks (Le Diable Boiteux), 1707
