Dr. Faustus, Scene V

Scene V begins with Faustus and Mephistophilis (Meph) making the deal of Meph's servitude for Faustus's soul. Faustus writes the contract in his blood and asks why Lucifer needs souls and the answer to the question was to expand his kingdom. Then Meph starts talking about hell and tells Faustus why and how he is damned. Faustus in response explains that he doesn't think there is any pain in the afterlife so it doesn't matter. Faustus then asks for a wife which Meph goes and fetches a bride which was a devil and Faustus threw her away. Faustus then asks for a spell book which Meph supplies a spell book with every incantations possible and the scene ends with Meph showing the book to Faustus.
