By unclosing your + eyes so suddenly, you seem to have surprised the personages of your dream + in full convocation round your bed, and catch one broad glance at them + before they can flit into obscurity. Or, to vary the metaphor, you find + yourself, for a single instant, wide awake in that realm of illusions, + whither sleep has been the passport, and behold its ghostly inhabitants + and wondrous scenery, with a perception of their strangeness, such as you + never attain while the dream is undisturbed. The distant sound of a + church-clock is borne faintly on the wind. You question with yourself, + half seriously, whether it has stolen to your waking ear from some gray + tower, that stood within the precincts of your dream. While yet in + suspense, another clock flings its heavy clang over the slumbering town, + with so full and distinct a sound, and such a long murmur in the + neighboring air, that you are certain it must proceed from the steeple at + the nearest corner. You count the strokes—one—two, and there + they cease, with a booming sound, like the gathering of a third stroke + within the bell. + </p> + <p> + If you could choose an hour of wakefulness out of the whole night, it + would be this. Since your sober bedtime, at eleven, you have had rest + enough to take off the pressure of yesterday's fatigue; while before you, + till the sun comes from "far Cathay" to brighten your window, there is + almost the space of a summer night; one hour to be spent in thought, with + the mind's eye half shut, and two in pleasant dreams, and two in that + strangest of enjoyments, the forgetfulness alike of joy and woe. The + moment of rising belongs to another period of time, and appears so + distant, that the plunge out of a warm bed into the frosty air cannot yet + be anticipated with dismay. Yesterday has already vanished among the + shadows of the past; to-morrow has not yet emerged from the future. You + have found an intermediate space, where the business of life does not + intrude; where the passing moment lingers, and becomes truly the present; + a spot where Father Time, when he thinks nobody is watching him, sits down + by the wayside to take breath. O that he would fall asleep, and let + mortals live on without growing older! + </p> + <p> + Hitherto you have lain perfectly still, because the slightest motion would + dissipate the fragments of your slumber. Now, being irrevocably awake, you + peep through the half-drawn window-curtain, and observe that the glass is + ornamented with fanciful devices in frostwork, and that each pane presents + something like a frozen dream. There will be time enough to trace out the + analogy, while waiting the summons to breakfast. Seen through the clear + portion of the glass, where the silvery mountain-peaks of the frost + scenery do not ascend, the most conspicuous object is the steeple, the + white spire of which directs you to the wintry lustre of the firmament. + You may almost distinguish the figures on the clock that has just told the + hour. Such a frosty sky, and the snow-covered roofs, and the long vista of + the frozen street, all white, and the distant water hardened into rock, + might make you shiver, even under four blankets and a woollen comforter. + Yet look at that one glorious star! Its beams are distinguishable from all + the rest, and actually cast the shadow of the casement on the bed, with a + radiance of deeper hue than moonlight, though not so accurate an outline. + </p> + <p> + You sink down and muffle your head in the clothes, shivering all the + while, but less from bodily chill than the bare idea of a polar + atmosphere. It is too cold even for the thoughts to venture abroad. You + speculate on the luxury of wearing out a whole existence in bed, like an + oyster in its shell, content with the sluggish ecstasy of inaction, and + drowsily conscious of nothing but delicious warmth, such as you now feel + again. Ah! that idea has brought a hideous one in its train. You think how + the dead are lying in their cold shrouds and narrow coffins, through the + drear winter of the grave, and cannot persuade your fancy that they + neither shrink nor shiver, when the snow is drifting over their little + hillocks, and the bitter blast howls against the door of the tomb. That + gloomy thought will collect a gloomy multitude, and throw its complexion + over your wakeful hour. + </p> + <p> + In the depths of every heart there is a tomb and a dungeon, though the + lights, the music, and revelry above may cause us to forget their + existence, and the buried ones, or prisoners whom they hide. But + sometimes, and oftenest at midnight, these dark receptacles are flung wide + open. In an hour like this, when the mind has a passive sensibility, but + no active strength; when the imagination is a mirror, imparting vividness + to all ideas, without the power of selecting or controlling them; then + pray that your griefs may slumber, and the brotherhood of remorse not + break their chain. It is too late! A funeral train comes gliding by your + bed, in which Passion and Feeling assume bodily shape, and things of the + mind become dire spectres to the eye. There is your earliest Sorrow, a + pale young mourner, wearing a sister's likeness to first love, sadly + beautiful, with a hallowed sweetness in her melancholy features, and grace + in the flow of her sable robe. Next appears a shade of ruined loveliness, + with dust among her golden hair, and her bright garments all faded and + defaced, stealing from your glance with drooping head, as fearful of + reproach; she was your fondest Hope, but a delusive one; so call her + Disappointment now. A sterner form succeeds, with a brow of wrinkles, a + look and gesture of iron authority; there is no name for him unless it be + Fatality, an emblem of the evil influence that rules your fortunes; a + demon to whom you subjected yourself by some error at the outset of life, + and were bound his slave forever, by once obeying him. See! those fiendish + lineaments graven on the darkness, the writhed lip of scorn, the mockery + of that living eye, the pointed finger, touching the sore place in your + heart! Do you remember any act of enormous folly, at which you would + blush, even in the remotest cavern of the earth? Then recognize your + Shame. + </p> + <p> + Pass, wretched band! Well for the wakeful one, if, riotously miserable, a + fiercer tribe do not surround him, the devils of a guilty heart, that + holds its hell within itself. What if Remorse should assume the features + of an injured friend? What if the fiend should come in woman's garments, + with a pale beauty amid sin and desolation, and lie down by your side? + What if he should stand at your bed's foot, in the likeness of a corpse, + with a bloody stain upon the shroud? Sufficient without such guilt is this + nightmare of the soul; this heavy, heavy sinking of the spirits; this + wintry gloom about the heart; this indistinct horror of the mind, blending + itself with the darkness of the chamber. + </p> + <p> + By a desperate effort, you start upright, breaking from a sort of + conscious sleep, and gazing wildly round the bed, as if the fiends were + anywhere but in your haunted mind. At the same moment, the slumbering + embers on the hearth send forth a gleam which palely illuminates the whole + outer room, and flickers through the door of the bedchamber, but cannot + quite dispel its obscurity. Your eye searches for whatever may remind you + of the living world. With eager minuteness, you take note of the table + near the fireplace, the book with an ivory knife between its leaves, the + unfolded letter, the hat, and the fallen glove. Soon the flame vanishes, + and with it the whole scene is gone, though its image remains an instant + in your mind's eye, when darkness has swallowed the reality. Throughout + the chamber, there is the same obscurity as before, but not the same gloom + within your breast. As your head falls back upon the pillow, you think—in + a whisper be it spoken—how pleasant in these night solitudes would + be the rise and fall of a softer breathing than your own, the slight + pressure of a tenderer bosom, the quiet throb of a purer heart, imparting + its peacefulness to your troubled one, as if the fond sleeper were + involving you in her dream. + </p> + <p> + Her influence is over you, though she have no existence but in that + momentary image. You sink down in a flowery spot, on the borders of sleep + and wakefulness, while your thoughts rise before you in pictures, all + disconnected, yet all assimilated by a pervading gladsomeness and beauty. + The wheeling of gorgeous squadrons, that glitter in the sun, is succeeded + by the merriment of children round the door of a school-house, beneath the + glimmering shadow of old trees, at the corner of a rustic lane. You stand + in the sunny rain of a summer shower, and wander among the sunny trees of + an autumnal wood, and look upward at the brightest of all rainbows, + overarching the unbroken sheet of snow, on the American side of Niagara. + Your mind struggles pleasantly between the dancing radiance round the + hearth of a young man and his recent bride, and the twittering flight of + birds in spring, about their new-made nest. You feel the merry bounding of + a ship before the breeze; and watch the tuneful feet of rosy girls, as + they twine their last and merriest dance in a splendid ballroom; and find + yourself in the brilliant circle of a crowded theatre, as the curtain + falls over a light and airy scene. + </p> + <p> + With an involuntary start, you seize hold on consciousness, and prove + yourself but half awake, by running a doubtful parallel between human life + and the hour which has now elapsed. In both you emerge from mystery, pass + through a vicissitude that you can but imperfectly control, and are borne + onward to another mystery. Now comes the peal of the distant clock, with + fainter and fainter strokes as you plunge further into the wilderness of + sleep. It is the knell of a temporary death. Your spirit has departed, and + strays like a free citizen, among the people of a shadowy world, beholding + strange sights, yet without wonder or dismay. So calm, perhaps, will be + the final change; so undisturbed, as if among familiar things, the + entrance of the soul to its Eternal home! + </p> + <p> + <br /><br /><br /><br /> + </p> +<pre xml:space="preserve"> + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Haunted Mind (From "Twice Told +Tales"), by Nathaniel Hawthorne + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE HAUNTED MIND *** + +***** This file should be named 9209-h.htm or 9209-h.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/9/2/0/9209/ + +Produced by David Widger + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

By unclosing +your eyes so suddenly, you seem to have surprised the personages of +your dream in full convocation round your bed, and catch one broad +glance at them before they can flit into obscurity. Or, to vary the +metaphor, you find yourself, for a single instant, wide awake in that +realm of illusions, whither sleep has been the passport, and behold +its ghostly inhabitants and wondrous scenery, with a perception of +their strangeness, such as you never attain while the dream is +undisturbed. The distant sound of a church-clock is borne faintly on +the wind. You question with yourself, half seriously, whether it has +stolen to your waking ear from some gray tower, that stood within the +precincts of your dream. While yet in suspense, another clock flings +its heavy clang over the slumbering town, with so full and distinct a +sound, and such a long murmur in the neighboring air, that you are +certain it must proceed from the steeple at the nearest corner. You +count the strokes--one--two, and there they cease, with a booming +sound, like the gathering of a third stroke within the bell. + +If you could choose an hour of wakefulness out of the whole night, it +would be this. Since your sober bedtime, at eleven, you have had rest +enough to take off the pressure of yesterday's fatigue; while before +you, till the sun comes from "far Cathay" to brighten your window, +there is almost the space of a summer night; one hour to be spent in +thought, with the mind's eye half shut, and two in pleasant dreams, +and two in that strangest of enjoyments, the forgetfulness alike of +joy and woe. The moment of rising belongs to another period of time, +and appears so distant, that the plunge out of a warm bed into the +frosty air cannot yet be anticipated with dismay. Yesterday has +already vanished among the shadows of the past; to-morrow has not yet +emerged from the future. You have found an intermediate space, where +the business of life does not intrude; where the passing moment +lingers, and becomes truly the present; a spot where Father Time, when +he thinks nobody is watching him, sits down by the wayside to take +breath. O that he would fall asleep, and let mortals live on without +growing older! + +Hitherto you have lain perfectly still, because the slightest motion +would dissipate the fragments of your slumber. Now, being irrevocably +awake, you peep through the half-drawn window-curtain, and observe +that the glass is ornamented with fanciful devices in frostwork, and +that each pane presents something like a frozen dream. There will be +time enough to trace out the analogy, while waiting the summons to +breakfast. Seen through the clear portion of the glass, where the +silvery mountain-peaks of the frost scenery do not ascend, the most +conspicuous object is the steeple, the white spire of which directs +you to the wintry lustre of the firmament. You may almost distinguish +the figures on the clock that has just told the hour. Such a frosty +sky, and the snow-covered roofs, and the long vista of the frozen +street, all white, and the distant water hardened into rock, might +make you shiver, even under four blankets and a woollen comforter. +Yet look at that one glorious star! Its beams are distinguishable +from all the rest, and actually cast the shadow of the casement on the +bed, with a radiance of deeper hue than moonlight, though not so +accurate an outline. + +You sink down and muffle your head in the clothes, shivering all the +while, but less from bodily chill than the bare idea of a polar +atmosphere. It is too cold even for the thoughts to venture abroad. +You speculate on the luxury of wearing out a whole existence in bed, +like an oyster in its shell, content with the sluggish ecstasy of +inaction, and drowsily conscious of nothing but delicious warmth, such +as you now feel again. Ah! that idea has brought a hideous one in its +train. You think how the dead are lying in their cold shrouds and +narrow coffins, through the drear winter of the grave, and cannot +persuade your fancy that they neither shrink nor shiver, when the snow +is drifting over their little hillocks, and the bitter blast howls +against the door of the tomb. That gloomy thought will collect a +gloomy multitude, and throw its complexion over your wakeful hour. + +In the depths of every heart there is a tomb and a dungeon, though the +lights, the music, and revelry above may cause us to forget their +existence, and the buried ones, or prisoners whom they hide. But +sometimes, and oftenest at midnight, these dark receptacles are flung +wide open. In an hour like this, when the mind has a passive +sensibility, but no active strength; when the imagination is a mirror, +imparting vividness to all ideas, without the power of selecting or +controlling them; then pray that your griefs may slumber, and the +brotherhood of remorse not break their chain. It is too late! A +funeral train comes gliding by your bed, in which Passion and Feeling +assume bodily shape, and things of the mind become dire spectres to +the eye. There is your earliest Sorrow, a pale young mourner, wearing +a sister's likeness to first love, sadly beautiful, with a hallowed +sweetness in her melancholy features, and grace in the flow of her +sable robe. Next appears a shade of ruined loveliness, with dust +among her golden hair, and her bright garments all faded and defaced, +stealing from your glance with drooping head, as fearful of reproach; +she was your fondest Hope, but a delusive one; so call her +Disappointment now. A sterner form succeeds, with a brow of wrinkles, +a look and gesture of iron authority; there is no name for him unless +it be Fatality, an emblem of the evil influence that rules your +fortunes; a demon to whom you subjected yourself by some error at the +outset of life, and were bound his slave forever, by once obeying him. +See! those fiendish lineaments graven on the darkness, the writhed lip +of scorn, the mockery of that living eye, the pointed finger, touching +the sore place in your heart! Do you remember any act of enormous +folly, at which you would blush, even in the remotest cavern of the +earth? Then recognize your Shame. + +Pass, wretched band! Well for the wakeful one, if, riotously +miserable, a fiercer tribe do not surround him, the devils of a guilty +heart, that holds its hell within itself. What if Remorse should +assume the features of an injured friend? What if the fiend should +come in woman's garments, with a pale beauty amid sin and desolation, +and lie down by your side? What if he should stand at your bed's +foot, in the likeness of a corpse, with a bloody stain upon the +shroud? Sufficient without such guilt is this nightmare of the soul; +this heavy, heavy sinking of the spirits; this wintry gloom about the +heart; this indistinct horror of the mind, blending itself with the +darkness of the chamber. + +By a desperate effort, you start upright, breaking from a sort of +conscious sleep, and gazing wildly round the bed, as if the fiends +were anywhere but in your haunted mind. At the same moment, the +slumbering embers on the hearth send forth a gleam which palely +illuminates the whole outer room, and flickers through the door of the +bedchamber, but cannot quite dispel its obscurity. Your eye searches +for whatever may remind you of the living world. With eager +minuteness, you take note of the table near the fireplace, the book +with an ivory knife between its leaves, the unfolded letter, the hat, +and the fallen glove. Soon the flame vanishes, and with it the whole +scene is gone, though its image remains an instant in your mind's eye, +when darkness has swallowed the reality. Throughout the chamber, +there is the same obscurity as before, but not the same gloom within +your breast. As your head falls back upon the pillow, you think--in a +whisper be it spoken--how pleasant in these night solitudes would be +the rise and fall of a softer breathing than your own, the slight +pressure of a tenderer bosom, the quiet throb of a purer heart, +imparting its peacefulness to your troubled one, as if the fond +sleeper were involving you in her dream. + +Her influence is over you, though she have no existence but in that +momentary image. You sink down in a flowery spot, on the borders of +sleep and wakefulness, while your thoughts rise before you in +pictures, all disconnected, yet all assimilated by a pervading +gladsomeness and beauty. The wheeling of gorgeous squadrons, that +glitter in the sun, is succeeded by the merriment of children round +the door of a school-house, beneath the glimmering shadow of old +trees, at the corner of a rustic lane. You stand in the sunny rain of +a summer shower, and wander among the sunny trees of an autumnal wood, +and look upward at the brightest of all rainbows, overarching the +unbroken sheet of snow, on the American side of Niagara. Your mind +struggles pleasantly between the dancing radiance round the hearth of +a young man and his recent bride, and the twittering flight of birds +in spring, about their new-made nest. You feel the merry bounding of +a ship before the breeze; and watch the tuneful feet of rosy girls, as +they twine their last and merriest dance in a splendid ballroom; and +find yourself in the brilliant circle of a crowded theatre, as the +curtain falls over a light and airy scene. + +With an involuntary start, you seize hold on consciousness, and prove +yourself but half awake, by running a doubtful parallel between human +life and the hour which has now elapsed. In both you emerge from +mystery, pass through a vicissitude that you can but imperfectly +control, and are borne onward to another mystery. Now comes the peal +of the distant clock, with fainter and fainter strokes as you plunge +further into the wilderness of sleep. It is the knell of a temporary +death. Your spirit has departed, and strays like a free citizen, +among the people of a shadowy world, beholding strange sights, yet +without wonder or dismay. So calm, perhaps, will be the final change; +so undisturbed, as if among familiar things, the entrance of the soul +to its Eternal home! + + + + + + + + +End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of The Haunted Mind (From "Twice Told +Tales"), by Nathaniel Hawthorne + +*** END OF THIS PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE HAUNTED MIND *** + +***** This file should be named 9209.txt or 9209.zip ***** +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: + https://www.gutenberg.org/9/2/0/9209/ + +Produced by David Widger + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

By unclosing +your eyes so suddenly, you seem to have surprised the personages of +your dream in full convocation round your bed, and catch one broad +glance at them before they can flit into obscurity. Or, to vary the +metaphor, you find yourself, for a single instant, wide awake in that +realm of illusions, whither sleep has been the passport, and behold +its ghostly inhabitants and wondrous scenery, with a perception of +their strangeness, such as you never attain while the dream is +undisturbed. The distant sound of a church-clock is borne faintly on +the wind. You question with yourself, half seriously, whether it has +stolen to your waking ear from some gray tower, that stood within the +precincts of your dream. While yet in suspense, another clock flings +its heavy clang over the slumbering town, with so full and distinct a +sound, and such a long murmur in the neighboring air, that you are +certain it must proceed from the steeple at the nearest corner. You +count the strokes--one--two, and there they cease, with a booming +sound, like the gathering of a third stroke within the bell. + +If you could choose an hour of wakefulness out of the whole night, it +would be this. Since your sober bedtime, at eleven, you have had rest +enough to take off the pressure of yesterday's fatigue; while before +you, till the sun comes from "far Cathay" to brighten your window, +there is almost the space of a summer night; one hour to be spent in +thought, with the mind's eye half shut, and two in pleasant dreams, +and two in that strangest of enjoyments, the forgetfulness alike of +joy and woe. The moment of rising belongs to another period of time, +and appears so distant, that the plunge out of a warm bed into the +frosty air cannot yet be anticipated with dismay. Yesterday has +already vanished among the shadows of the past; to-morrow has not yet +emerged from the future. You have found an intermediate space, where +the business of life does not intrude; where the passing moment +lingers, and becomes truly the present; a spot where Father Time, when +he thinks nobody is watching him, sits down by the wayside to take +breath. O that he would fall asleep, and let mortals live on without +growing older! + +Hitherto you have lain perfectly still, because the slightest motion +would dissipate the fragments of your slumber. Now, being irrevocably +awake, you peep through the half-drawn window-curtain, and observe +that the glass is ornamented with fanciful devices in frostwork, and +that each pane presents something like a frozen dream. There will be +time enough to trace out the analogy, while waiting the summons to +breakfast. Seen through the clear portion of the glass, where the +silvery mountain-peaks of the frost scenery do not ascend, the most +conspicuous object is the steeple, the white spire of which directs +you to the wintry lustre of the firmament. You may almost distinguish +the figures on the clock that has just told the hour. Such a frosty +sky, and the snow-covered roofs, and the long vista of the frozen +street, all white, and the distant water hardened into rock, might +make you shiver, even under four blankets and a woollen comforter. +Yet look at that one glorious star! Its beams are distinguishable +from all the rest, and actually cast the shadow of the casement on the +bed, with a radiance of deeper hue than moonlight, though not so +accurate an outline. + +You sink down and muffle your head in the clothes, shivering all the +while, but less from bodily chill than the bare idea of a polar +atmosphere. It is too cold even for the thoughts to venture abroad. +You speculate on the luxury of wearing out a whole existence in bed, +like an oyster in its shell, content with the sluggish ecstasy of +inaction, and drowsily conscious of nothing but delicious warmth, such +as you now feel again. Ah! that idea has brought a hideous one in its +train. You think how the dead are lying in their cold shrouds and +narrow coffins, through the drear winter of the grave, and cannot +persuade your fancy that they neither shrink nor shiver, when the snow +is drifting over their little hillocks, and the bitter blast howls +against the door of the tomb. That gloomy thought will collect a +gloomy multitude, and throw its complexion over your wakeful hour. + +In the depths of every heart there is a tomb and a dungeon, though the +lights, the music, and revelry above may cause us to forget their +existence, and the buried ones, or prisoners whom they hide. But +sometimes, and oftenest at midnight, these dark receptacles are flung +wide open. In an hour like this, when the mind has a passive +sensibility, but no active strength; when the imagination is a mirror, +imparting vividness to all ideas, without the power of selecting or +controlling them; then pray that your griefs may slumber, and the +brotherhood of remorse not break their chain. It is too late! A +funeral train comes gliding by your bed, in which Passion and Feeling +assume bodily shape, and things of the mind become dire spectres to +the eye. There is your earliest Sorrow, a pale young mourner, wearing +a sister's likeness to first love, sadly beautiful, with a hallowed +sweetness in her melancholy features, and grace in the flow of her +sable robe. Next appears a shade of ruined loveliness, with dust +among her golden hair, and her bright garments all faded and defaced, +stealing from your glance with drooping head, as fearful of reproach; +she was your fondest Hope, but a delusive one; so call her +Disappointment now. A sterner form succeeds, with a brow of wrinkles, +a look and gesture of iron authority; there is no name for him unless +it be Fatality, an emblem of the evil influence that rules your +fortunes; a demon to whom you subjected yourself by some error at the +outset of life, and were bound his slave forever, by once obeying him. +See! those fiendish lineaments graven on the darkness, the writhed lip +of scorn, the mockery of that living eye, the pointed finger, touching +the sore place in your heart! Do you remember any act of enormous +folly, at which you would blush, even in the remotest cavern of the +earth? Then recognize your Shame. + +Pass, wretched band! Well for the wakeful one, if, riotously +miserable, a fiercer tribe do not surround him, the devils of a guilty +heart, that holds its hell within itself. What if Remorse should +assume the features of an injured friend? What if the fiend should +come in woman's garments, with a pale beauty amid sin and desolation, +and lie down by your side? What if he should stand at your bed's +foot, in the likeness of a corpse, with a bloody stain upon the +shroud? Sufficient without such guilt is this nightmare of the soul; +this heavy, heavy sinking of the spirits; this wintry gloom about the +heart; this indistinct horror of the mind, blending itself with the +darkness of the chamber. + +By a desperate effort, you start upright, breaking from a sort of +conscious sleep, and gazing wildly round the bed, as if the fiends +were anywhere but in your haunted mind. At the same moment, the +slumbering embers on the hearth send forth a gleam which palely +illuminates the whole outer room, and flickers through the door of the +bedchamber, but cannot quite dispel its obscurity. Your eye searches +for whatever may remind you of the living world. With eager +minuteness, you take note of the table near the fireplace, the book +with an ivory knife between its leaves, the unfolded letter, the hat, +and the fallen glove. Soon the flame vanishes, and with it the whole +scene is gone, though its image remains an instant in your mind's eye, +when darkness has swallowed the reality. Throughout the chamber, +there is the same obscurity as before, but not the same gloom within +your breast. As your head falls back upon the pillow, you think--in a +whisper be it spoken--how pleasant in these night solitudes would be +the rise and fall of a softer breathing than your own, the slight +pressure of a tenderer bosom, the quiet throb of a purer heart, +imparting its peacefulness to your troubled one, as if the fond +sleeper were involving you in her dream. + +Her influence is over you, though she have no existence but in that +momentary image. You sink down in a flowery spot, on the borders of +sleep and wakefulness, while your thoughts rise before you in +pictures, all disconnected, yet all assimilated by a pervading +gladsomeness and beauty. The wheeling of gorgeous squadrons, that +glitter in the sun, is succeeded by the merriment of children round +the door of a school-house, beneath the glimmering shadow of old +trees, at the corner of a rustic lane. You stand in the sunny rain of +a summer shower, and wander among the sunny trees of an autumnal wood, +and look upward at the brightest of all rainbows, overarching the +unbroken sheet of snow, on the American side of Niagara. Your mind +struggles pleasantly between the dancing radiance round the hearth of +a young man and his recent bride, and the twittering flight of birds +in spring, about their new-made nest. You feel the merry bounding of +a ship before the breeze; and watch the tuneful feet of rosy girls, as +they twine their last and merriest dance in a splendid ballroom; and +find yourself in the brilliant circle of a crowded theatre, as the +curtain falls over a light and airy scene. + +With an involuntary start, you seize hold on consciousness, and prove +yourself but half awake, by running a doubtful parallel between human +life and the hour which has now elapsed. In both you emerge from +mystery, pass through a vicissitude that you can but imperfectly +control, and are borne onward to another mystery. Now comes the peal +of the distant clock, with fainter and fainter strokes as you plunge +further into the wilderness of sleep. It is the knell of a temporary +death. Your spirit has departed, and strays like a free citizen, +among the people of a shadowy world, beholding strange sights, yet +without wonder or dismay. So calm, perhaps, will be the final change; +so undisturbed, as if among familiar things, the entrance of the soul +to its Eternal home! + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE HAUNTED MIND *** +By Nathaniel Hawthorne + +*** This file should be named haw3610.txt or haw3610.zip *** + +Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, haw3611.txt +VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, haw3610a.txt + +This eBook was produced by David Widger [widger@cecomet.net] + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
