…In the year of the Great Passing Over were signs and wonders seen of all men, O m y Brethren, as it is written, and well known unto this day. And the first sign was of dancing: for every woman that was under the moon began to dance and was mad, so that headlong and hot-mouthed she flung herself down, desirous. Whence the second sign, that of musical inventions ; for in that year, and of Ros ewomen, came A and U and M,1 the mighty musicians ! And the third sign likewise, namely , of animals : for in that y ear every sheep had lambs thirteen, and…

(2) We said “’T will be cold, not improbably wet,” We sneered at the ridge we had passed, We said of the sun “ His day’s work he has done.” We said of the sky—“ it is vast.” (3) We spoke of the snow—“ it is notably cold ” ; We supped upon Cotton and Maggi ; We observed to the moon “ Be a dear and come soon.’ We remarked of the crags—“ they are craggy.” (4) Intelligent talk will most surely beguile The longest night out on the rocks ; So we made of the guides the remarks that revile; Of their Herrs we said “sheep go in floc…

… crack, and thus starting a foot higher up, I could get to the top, and did so. I recorded this in the Climbers' Book; and the following day a man named H. V. Reade, possibly in a sceptical mood, followed in my footsteps. He found my wedged stone, contemptuously threw it away, climbed the pitch without it, and recorded the feat. That was a double blow to Mr. Jones. It was no longer a convincing argument that if he couldn't do a thing it couldn't be done. But this was not all.

JEPHTHAH. 63 Sharp and black, till day is passed Over to the ocean vast ; Where the barren rocks resound Only to the rending roar Of the shattering streams that pour Rocks by ice eternal bound, Myriad cascades that crowned Once the far resounding throne Of the mountain spirits strong, All the treacherous souls that throng Desolate abodes of stone, Barren of all comely things, Given to the splendid kings, Gloomy state, and glamour dark, Swooping jewel-feathered wings, Eyes translucent with a spark Of the world of fire, that swings Gates of adama…

…ak Stark winds of innocence astray ! The fearful passion sweeps me away. So with a passionate thrill of fear I creeplike shadows across Day ! Like Winter on the expended year ! From those cold feet, a frozen meer, To those cold knees, a lost lagoon, To that wild woodland, strangely near To the lone tower that tops the moon ! Verily and Amen ! Unhewn The great grim forest menaces. What gardener may dare to prune Those woods to build me palaces ?

…. Lamus had advised us to take Turkish baths if we felt unduly depressed. We had found them very useful. We had got down to three goes a day two days running, chiefly by following his advice to take one of the white tablets instead of the heroin whenever the craving became irresistible. He made rather a point of that, by the way. . It was a bad thing, he said, to yield to stress. It wasn’t nearly so harmful to take the heroin when one didn’t feel so badly in need of it. Even after all this time I hadn’t quite got on to the peculiarities of the …
