Excerpt from Domus Doloris

Almost be distinguished. They veered away once more, to hang and linger, as if about a corner which they could not turn; they grew thin as the hum of insects preventing sleep. At last they were wholly round; they were no longer heard. A great contentment rose. Yet still there was no peace; a new strain pressed the mind, which would be now as sured that they were gone for the last time, utterly The tension became pain; there was a longing to hail and have no answer, but all power was lost over lips and tongue; in night mares one had known such impotence, but this was more than dream. At the point of anguish came relief. A sweet singing filled the ears, diffused at first, but then divided into a full harmony that died like chords under a bow drawn slowly to the tip. Silence had now a presage of some divine ap proach. Oblivion flowed up like evening gloom. Life moved with it to the edge of a great deep; it was drawn over; it floated down and down, wound in the arms of Sleep.
