"Through me the way is to the city dolent; Through me the way is to eternal dole; Through me the way among the people lost," with that of Dr. Parsons, , "Through me you reach the city of despair; Through me eternal wretchedness ye find; Through me among perdition's race ye fare." I do not think any one will deny that Dr. Parsons's version, while far more remote than Mr.
When the King heard thereof he was passing heavy and dolent, and considered within himself how he might be delivered from this grief.
The lamplight now shone full upon it; and this time again as he gazed at it he felt a blow in the heart, a blow which was all the deeper, as now, at his parting hour, he found a symbol of his defeat at Rome in that dolent, tragic, half-naked woman, draped in a shred of linen, and weeping between her clasped hands whilst seated on the threshold of the palace whence she had been driven.
The little by-way along which they went, the little green path leading over the hill, under trees shot through and through with the whiteness of summer seas, was strewn with blossoms fallen from the bier and the dolent fingers of the weeping girls.
It was to the old climbs that Garratt Skinner's conversation perpetually recurred the Aiguille Verte, the Grand and the Petit Dru and the traverse between them, the Col Dolent, the Grandes Jorasses and the Brenva route yes, above all, the Brenva route up Mont Blanc.
Then the technical side of Chayne's proposal took hold of him. "The Col Dolent? You will have to start early from the Chalet de Lognan, monsieur. You will sleep there, of course, to-morrow. You will have to start at midnight perhaps even before. There is very little snow this year. The great bergschrund will be very difficult.
The slopes of the Les Droites and Mont Dolent were hung with jewels; even the black precipices of the Tour Noir grew warm and friendly. But at the head of the glacier a sheer unbroken wall of rock swept round in the segment of a circle, and this remained still dead black and the glacier at its foot dead white.
