" The thought lodged in the minds of both. Oppressed by long and fruitless wan...derings, they began to have a superstition that they were to continue them forever. They knew that it was unreasonable, but it clung, never- theless. There were the rolling plains, the high, brasi^ sky, and the clear line of the horizon on all sides, with nothing that savored of human life between.

Still the same high, brassy sky, still the same unbroken horizons.
