Æs Triplex (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Æs Triplex

Are in themselves so sharp and final, and so terrible and melancholy in their consequences, that the thing stands alone in man's experience, and has no parallel upon earth. It out does all other accidents because it is the last of them. Sometimes it leaps suddenly upon its victims, like a Thug; sometimes it lays a regular siege and creeps upon their citadel during a score of years. And when the business is done, there is sore havoc made in other people's lives, and a pin knocked out by Which many subsidiary friendships hung to gether. There are empty chairs, soli tary walks, and single beds at night.
