Scene V

I feel like Faustus is already out of control. I don't understand why he keeps talking about himself in the third person either? That really shows his character and how he believes himself to be more knowledgeable and more powerful than any other being, maybe even than God. I feel like he might have been possessed at that point by evil spirits because he was acting so strangely in the way he was speaking. I feel like the demon who caters to him was trying to tell him that it is miserable being where he is and he tried to talk him out of it, yet he still had to do his job and help sway Faustus to sell his soul to the devil. The idea that his body tried to stop him was interesting because I didn't know if maybe God was telling him something or his demon slave did it for him? I feel like now that he's sold his soul to the devil, there will be something that happens because when signing your soul to the devil you have to be specific about what you ask for in return. The devil is sneaky and will use loop holes to gain your soul before you want him to and in a way that gives you nothing in return. I feel like this might happen to Faustus.
