The use of phrases, fragments, and punctuation can affect the pace and mood of a text. How would you describe the pace of the following passage?

“Yet, mad am I not—and very surely do I not dream. But to-morrow I die, and to-day I would unburden my soul. My immediate purpose is to place before the world, plainly, succinctly, and without comment, a series of mere household events. In their consequences, these events have terrified—have tortured—have destroyed me.”
