christopher marlowe uses blood as a symbol for faustus's soul and life throughout the tragical history of doctor faustus. which part of this excerpt from the play provides evidence that faustus's human soul is predisposed to shun evil?
faustus: [writing] ay, so i do. but, mephistophilis,
my blood congeals, and i can write no more.
mephastophilis: i'll fetch thee fire to dissolve it straight.
(exit)
faustus: what might the staying of my blood portend?
is it unwilling i should write this bill?
why streams it not, that i may write afresh?
faustus gives to thee his soul: o, there it stay'd!
why shouldst thou not? is not thy soul thine own?
then write again, faustus gives to thee his soul.
