In the little tale +which follows, a subdued tinge of the wild and wonderful is thrown +over a sketch of New England personages and scenery, yet, it is hoped, +without entirely obliterating the sober hues of nature. Rather than a +story of events claiming to be real, it may be considered as an +allegory, such as the writers of the last century would have expressed +in the shape of an Eastern tale, but to which I have endeavored to +give a more life-like warmth than could be infused into those fanciful +productions. + +In the twilight of a summer eve, a tall, dark figure, over which long +and remote travel had thrown an outlandish aspect, was entering a +village, not in "Fairy Londe," but within our own familiar boundaries. +The staff, on which this traveller leaned, had been his companion from +the spot where it grew, in the jungles of Hindostan; the hat, that +overshadowed his sombre brow, had shielded him from the suns of Spain; +but his cheek had been blackened by the red-hot wind of an Arabian +desert, and had felt the frozen breath of an Arctic region. Long +sojourning amid wild and dangerous men, he still wore beneath his vest +the ataghan which he had once struck into the throat of a Turkish +robber. In every foreign clime he had lost something of his New +England characteristics; and, perhaps, from every people he had +unconsciously borrowed a new peculiarity; so that when the world- +wanderer again trod the street of his native village, it is no wonder +that he passed unrecognized, though exciting the gaze and curiosity of +all. Yet, as his arm casually touched that of a young woman, who was +wending her way to an evening lecture, she started, and almost uttered +a cry. + +"Ralph Cranfield!" was the name that she half articulated. + +"Can that be my old playmate, Faith Egerton?" thought the traveller, +looking round at her figure, but without pausing. + +Ralph Cranfield, from his youth upward, had felt himself marked out +for a high destiny. He had imbibed the idea--we say not whether it +were revealed to him by witchcraft, or in a dream of prophecy, or that +his brooding fancy had palmed its own dictates upon him as the oracles +of a Sibyl--but he had imbibed the idea, and held it firmest among his +articles of faith, that three marvellous events of his life were to be +confirmed to him by three signs. + +The first of these three fatalities, and perhaps the one on which his +youthful imagination had dwelt most fondly, was the discovery of the +maid, who alone, of all the maids on earth, could make him happy by +her love. He was to roam around the world till he should meet a +beautiful woman, wearing on her bosom a jewel in the shape of a heart; +whether of pearl, or ruby, or emerald, or carbuncle, or a changeful +opal, or perhaps a priceless diamond, Ralph Cranfield little cared, so +long as it were a heart of one peculiar shape. On encountering this +lovely stranger, he was bound to address her thus: "Maiden, I have +brought you a heavy heart. May I rest its weight on you?" And if she +were his fated bride,--if their kindred souls were destined to form a +union here below, which all eternity should only bind more closely,-- +she would reply, with her finger on the heart-shaped jewel, "This +token, which I have worn so long, is the assurance that you may!" + +And, secondly, Ralph Cranfield had a firm belief that there was a +mighty treasure hidden somewhere in the earth, of which the burial- +place would be revealed to none but him. When his feet should press +upon the mysterious spot, there would be a hand before him, pointing +downward,--whether carved of marble, or hewn in gigantic dimensions on +the side of a rocky precipice, or perchance a hand of flame in empty +air, he could not tell; but, at least, he would discern a hand, the +forefinger pointing downward, and beneath it the Latin word EFFODE,-- +Dig! And digging thereabouts, the gold in coin or ingots, the +precious stones, or of whatever else the treasure might consist, would +be certain to reward his toil. + +The third and last of the miraculous events in the life of this high- +destined man was to be the attainment of extensive influence and sway +over his fellow-creatures. Whether he were to be a king, and founder +of an hereditary throne, or the victorious leader of a people +contending for their freedom, or the apostle of a purified and +regenerated faith, was left for futurity to show. As messengers of +the sign, by which Ralph Cranfield might recognize the summons, three +venerable men were to claim audience of him. The chief among them, a +dignified and majestic person, arrayed, it may be supposed, in the +flowing garments of an ancient sage, would be the bearer of a wand, or +prophet's rod. With this wand, or rod, or staff, the venerable sage +would trace a certain figure in the air, and then proceed to make +known his heaven-instructed message; which, if obeyed, must lead to +glorious results. + +With this proud fate before him, in the flush of his imaginative +youth, Ralph Cranfield had set forth to seek the maid, the treasure, +and the venerable sage, with his gift of extended empire. And had he +found them? Alas! it was not with the aspect of a triumphant man, who +had achieved a nobler destiny than all his fellows, but rather with +the gloom of one struggling against peculiar and continual adversity, +that he now passed homeward to his mother's cottage. He had come +back, but only for a time, to lay aside the pilgrim's staff, trusting +that his weary manhood would regain somewhat of the elasticity of +youth, in the spot where his threefold fate had been foreshown him. +There had been few changes in the village; for it was not one of those +thriving places where a year's prosperity makes more than the havoc of +a century's decay; but like a gray hair in a young man's head, an +antiquated little town, full of old maids, and aged elms, and moss- +grown dwellings. Few seemed to be the changes here. The drooping +elms, indeed, had a more majestic spread; the weather-blackened houses +were adorned with a denser thatch of verdant moss; and doubtless there +were a few more gravestones in the burial-ground, inscribed with names +that had once been familiar in the village street. Yet, summing up +all the mischief that ten years had wrought, it seemed scarcely more +than if Ralph Cranfield had gone forth that very morning, and dreamed +a daydream till the twilight, and then turned back again. But his +heart grew cold, because the village did not remember him as he +remembered the village. + +"Here is the change!" sighed he, striking his hand upon his breast. +"Who is this man of thought and care, weary with world-wandering, and +heavy with disappointed hopes? The youth returns not, who went forth +so joyously!" + +And now Ralph Cranfield was at his mother's gate, in front of the +small house where the old lady, with slender but sufficient means, had +kept herself comfortable during her son's long absence. Admitting +himself within the enclosure, he leaned against a great, old tree, +trifling with his own impatience, as people often do in those +intervals when years are summed into a moment. He took a minute +survey of the dwelling,--its windows, brightened with the sky-gleans, +its doorway, with the half of a mill-stone for a step, and the faintly +traced path waving thence to the gate. He made friends again with his +childhood's friend, the old tree against which he leaned; and glancing +his eye a-down its trunk, beheld something that excited a melancholy +smile. It was a half-obliterated inscription--the Latin word EFFODE-- +which he remembered to have carved in the bark of the tree, with a +whole day's toil, when he had first begun to muse about his exalted +destiny. It might be accounted a rather singular coincidence, that +the bark, just above the inscription, had put forth an excrescence, +shaped not unlike a hand, with the forefinger pointing obliquely at +the word of fate. Such, at least, was its appearance in the dusky +light. + +"Now a credulous man," said Ralph Cranfield carelessly to himself, +"might suppose that the treasure which I have sought round the world +lies buried, after all, at the very door of my mother's dwelling. +That would be a jest indeed!" + +More he thought not about the matter; for now the door was opened, and +an elderly woman appeared on the threshold, peering into the dusk to +discover who it might be that had intruded on her premises, and was +standing in the shadow of her tree. It was Ralph Cranfield's mother. +Pass we over their greeting, and leave the one to her joy and the +other to his rest,--if quiet rest he found. + +But when morning broke, he arose with a troubled brow; for his sleep +and his wakefulness had alike been full of dreams. All the fervor was +rekindled with which he had burned of yore to unravel the threefold +mystery of his fate. The crowd of his early visions seemed to have +awaited him beneath his mother's roof, and thronged riotously around +to welcome his return. In the well-remembered chamber--on the pillow +where his infancy had slumbered--he had passed a wilder night than +ever in an Arab tent, or when he had reposed his head in the ghastly +shades of a haunted forest. A shadowy maid had stolen to his bedside, +and laid her finger on the scintillating heart; a hand of flame had +glowed amid the darkness, pointing downward to a mystery within the +earth; a hoary sage had waved his prophetic wand, and beckoned the +dreamer onward to a chair of state. The same phantoms, though fainter +in the daylight, still flitted about the cottage, and mingled among +the crowd of familiar faces that were drawn thither by the news of +Ralph Cranfield's return, to bid him welcome for his mother's sake. +There they found him, a tall, dark, stately man, of foreign aspect, +courteous in demeanor and mild of speech, yet with an abstracted eye, +which seemed often to snatch a glance at the invisible. + +Meantime the Widow Cranfield went bustling about the house full of joy +that she again had somebody to love, and be careful of, and for whom +she might vex and tease herself with the petty troubles of daily life. +It was nearly noon, when she looked forth from the door, and descried +three personages of note coming along the street, through the hot +sunshine and the masses of elm-tree shade. At length they reached her +gate, and undid the latch. + +"See, Ralph!" exclaimed she, with maternal pride, "here is Squire +Hawkwood and the two other selectmen coming on purpose to see you! +Now do tell them a good long story about what you have seen in foreign +parts." + +The foremost of the three visitors, Squire Hawkwood, was a very +pompous, but excellent old gentleman, the head and prime mover in all +the affairs of the village, and universally acknowledged to be one of +the sagest men on earth. He wore, according to a fashion, even then +becoming antiquated, a three-cornered hat, and carried a silver-headed +cane, the use of which seemed to be rather for flourishing in the air +than for assisting the progress of his legs. His two companions were +elderly and respectable yeomen, who, retaining an ante-revolutionary +reverence for rank and hereditary wealth, kept a little in the +Squire's rear. As they approached along the pathway, Ralph Cranfield +sat in an oaken elbow-chair, half unconsciously gazing at the three +visitors, and enveloping their homely figures in the misty romance +that pervaded his mental world. + +"Here," thought he, smiling at the conceit,--"here come three elderly +personages, and the first of the three is a venerable sage with a +staff. What if this embassy should bring me the message of my fate!" + +While Squire Hawkwood and his colleagues entered, Ralph rose from his +seat, and advanced a few steps to receive them; and his stately figure +and dark countenance, as he bent courteously towards his guests, had a +natural dignity, contrasting well with the bustling importance of the +Squire. The old gentleman, according to invariable custom, gave an +elaborate preliminary flourish with his cane in the air, then removed +his three-cornered hat in order to wipe his brow, and finally +proceeded to make known his errand. + +"My colleagues and myself," began the Squire, "are burdened with +momentous duties, being jointly selectmen of this village. Our minds, +for the space of three days past, have been laboriously bent on the +selection of a suitable person to fill a most important office, and +take upon himself a charge and rule, which, wisely considered, may be +ranked no lower than those of kings and potentates. And whereas you, +our native townsman, are of good natural intellect, and well +cultivated by foreign travel, and that certain vagaries and fantasies +of your youth are doubtless long ago corrected; taking all these +matters, I say, into due consideration, we are of opinion that +Providence Lath sent you hither, at this juncture, for our very +purpose." + +During this harangue, Cranfield gazed fixedly at the speaker, as if he +beheld something mysterious and unearthly in his pompous little +figure, and as if the Squire had worn the flowing robes of an ancient +sage, instead of a square-skirted coat, flapped waistcoat, velvet +breeches, and silk stockings. Nor was his wonder without sufficient +cause; for the flourish of the Squire's staff, marvellous to relate, +had described precisely the signal in the air which was to ratify the +message of the prophetic Sage, whom Cranfield had sought around the +world. + +"And what," inquired Ralph Cranfield, with a tremor in his voice,-- +"what may this office be, which is to equal me with kings and +potentates?" + +"No less than instructor of our village school," answered Squire +Hawkwood; "the office being now vacant by the loath of the venerable +Master Whitaker, after a fifty years' incumbency." + +"I will consider of your proposal," replied Ralph Cranfield, +hurriedly, "and will make known my decision within three days." + +After a few more words, the village dignitary and his companions took +their leave. But to Cranfield's fancy their images were still +present, and became more and more invested with the dim awfulness of +figures which had first appeared to him in a dream, and afterwards had +shown themselves in his waking moments, assuming homely aspects among +familiar things. His mind dwelt upon the features of the Squire, till +they grew confused with those of the visionary Sage, and one appeared +but the shadow of the other. The same visage, he now thought, had +looked forth upon him from the Pyramid of Cheops; the same form had +beckoned to him among the colonnades of the Alhambra; the same figure +had mistily revealed itself through the ascending steam of the Great +Geyser. At every effort of his memory he recognized some trait of the +dreamy Messenger of Destiny, in this pompous, bustling, self- +important, little great man of the village. Amid such musings Ralph +Cranfield sat all day in the cottage, scarcely hearing and vaguely +answering his mother's thousand questions about his travels and +adventures. At sunset he roused himself to take a stroll, and, +passing the aged elm-tree, his eye was again caught by the semblance +of a hand, pointing downward at the half-obliterated inscription. As +Cranfield walked down the street of the village, the level sunbeams +threw his shadow far before him; and he fancied that, as his shadow +walked among distant objects, so had there been a presentiment +stalking in advance of him throughout his life. And when he drew near +each object, over which his tall shadow had preceded him, still it +proved to be--one of the familiar recollections of his infancy and +youth. Every crook in the pathway was remembered. Even the more +transitory characteristics of the scene were the same as in bygone +days. A company of cows were grazing on the grassy roadside, and +refreshed him with their fragrant breath. "It is sweeter," thought +he, "than the perfume which was wafted to our shipp from the Spice +Islands." The round little figure of a child rolled from a doorway, +and lay laughing almost beneath Cranfield's feet. The dark and +stately man stooped down, and, lifting the infant, restored him to his +mother's arms. "The children," said he to himself, and sighed, and +smiled,--"the children are to be my charge!" And while a flow of +natural feeling gushed like a wellspring in his heart, he came to a +dwelling which he could nowise forbear to enter. A sweet voice, which +seemed to come from a deep and tender soul, was warbling a plaintive +little air, within. + +He bent his head, and passed through the lowly door. As his foot +sounded upon the threshold, a young woman advanced from the dusky +interior of the house, at first hastily, and then with a more +uncertain step, till they met face to face. There was a singular +contrast in their two figures; he dark and picturesque,--one who had +battled with the world,--whom all suns had shone upon, and whom all +winds had blown on a varied course; she neat, comely, and quiet,-- +quiet even in her agitation,--as if all her emotions had been subdued +to the peaceful tenor of her life. Yet their faces, all unlike as +they were, had an expression that seemed not so alien,--a glow of +kindred feeling, flashing upward anew from half-extinguished embers. + +"You are welcome home!" said Faith Egerton. + +But Cranfield did not immediately answer; for his eye had been caught +by an ornament in the shape of a Heart, which Faith wore as a brooch +upon her bosom. The material was the ordinary white quartz; and he +recollected having himself shaped it out of one of those Indian +arrowheads, which are so often found in the ancient haunts of the red +men. It was precisely on the pattern of that worn by the visionary +Maid. When Cranfield departed on his shadowy search he had bestowed +this brooch, in a gold setting, as a parting gift to Faith Egerton. + +"So, Faith, you have kept the Heart!" said he, at length. + +"Yes," said she, blushing deeply; then more gayly, "and what else have +you brought me from beyond the sea?" + +"Faith!" replied Ralph Cranfield, uttering the fated words by an +uncontrollable impulse, "I have brought you nothing but a heavy +heart! May I rest its weight on you?" + +"This token, which I have worn so long," said Faith, laying her +tremulous finger on the Heart, "is the assurance that you may!" + +"Faith! Faith!" cried Cranfield, clasping her in his arms, "you have +interpreted my wild and weary dream!" + +Yes, the wild dreamer was awake at last. To find the mysterious +treasure, he was to till the earth around his mother's dwelling, and +reap its products! Instead of warlike command, or regal or religious +sway, he was to rule over the village children! And now the visionary +Maid had faded from his fancy, and in her place he saw the playmate of +his childhood! Would all, who cherish such wild wishes, but look +around them, they would oftenest find their sphere of duty, of +prosperity, and happiness within those precincts, and in that station +where Providence itself has cast their lot. Happy they who read the +riddle, without a weary world-search, or a lifetime spent in vain! + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE THREEFOLD DESTINY *** +By Nathaniel Hawthorne + +****** This file should be named haw4710.txt or haw4710.zip ***** + +Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, haw4711.txt +VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, haw4710a.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.
