No single face, however beautiful, no single human soul, however vast, can absorb it. Silencieux, Beatrice, Wonder, himself, all faded away, in a trance like sense of a stupendous passion, an august possession. NO SINGLE FACE HOWEVER BEAUTIFUL NO SINGLE HUMAN SOUL HOWEVER VAST CAN ABSORB IT SILAGO BEATRICE WONDER HIMSELF ALL FADED AWAY IN A TRANS LIKE SENSE OF A STUPENDOUS PASSION AN AUGUST POSSESSION
ach stride, Antony fled from the place, and sought the moors. The moon was near its setting, and soon the dawn would throw open the eastern doors of the sky. He walked on and on, waiting, praying for, stifling for the light; and, at last, with a freshening of the air, and faint sounds of returning consciousness from distant farms, it came. High over a lake of ethereal silver welling up out of space, hung the morning star, shining as though its heart would break, bright as a tear that must slip down the face of heaven and fall amid the grass. As Antony looked up at it, his soul escaped from its prison of dark thought, and such an exaltation had come with the quickening light, that it seemed as though the body, with little more than pure aspiration to wing it, might follow the soul's flight to that crystal sphere. In that moment, Antony knew that the love in the soul of man is mated only with the infinite universe. In no marriage less than that shall it find lasting fulfilment of itself.
