There is genuine humour in some of Joseph s appearances, all the more that his efforts as a humorist are quite unconscious. In strong contrast to the gloom cast over the story by Heathcliff* is the beauty of those passages that tell how Catherine Linton does Digitized by VjOOQ IC EMILY BRONTE 8i all she can to soften the ruggedness in Hareton Eamshaw's disposition, and to raise him above the degraded level to which Heathcliff had depressed him, and of those that reveal the author's susceptibili...ty to nature under all as- pects. She is alive to the beauty of darkening moors and bright blue skies, of bare hillside and wooded valley, of carolling birds and whispering trees and murmuring streams. Her love of nature carries her into veins of thought that recall the imaginings of Shelley. Lock- wood had gone to visit the lonely churchyard where lay Heathcliff, Edgar Linton, and Catherine Earnshaw, and he thus concludes the story of Wuthering Heights : ' I lingered round them under that benign sky; watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how anyone could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for sleepers in that quiet earth.' Charlotte Bronte compares her sister's novel to a figure rudely carved from a granite block : * There it stands, colossal, dark, and frowning — ^half statue, half rock ; in the former sense terrible and goblin-like, in the latter almost beautiful, for its colouring is of mellow grey, Digitized by VjOOQ IC 82 EMILY BRONTE and moorland moss clothes it, and heath, with its blooming bells and balmy fragrance, grows faithfully close to the giant's foot' Rude Wuthering Heights is, but it has power and it has beauty, and when its author died our literature lost a novelist of great promise.
