He addressed himselfto some unfinished work, but soon threw it aside; he paced up and down, and spent a long time, with his hands clasped behind him, looking outinto the desolate garden, where a still, red sunset burnt behind theleafless trees. He was like a man who has made up his mind to a gravedecision, and shrinks back upon the brink. When his food was served hecould hardly touch it, and he drank no wine as his custom was to do, butonly water, saying to himself that his head must be clear. ...But in theevening he went to his bedroom, and searched for something in a pressthere; he found at last what he was searching for, and unfolded a longblack robe, looking gloomily upon it, as though it aroused unwelcomethoughts; while he was pondering, he heard a hum of music behind thearras; he put the robe down, and stepped through the hangings, and stoodawhile in the little oriel that looked down into the church. Vesperswere proceeding; he saw the holy lights dimly through the dusty panes, and heard the low preluding of the organ; then, solemn and slow, rosethe sound of a chanted psalm on the air; he carefully unfastened thecasement which opened inward and unclosed it, standing for a while tolisten, while the air, fragrant with incense smoke, drew into the roomalong the vaulted roof.
