He pushed on through the wet streets, lost in a hundred miseries and exaltations. The sensation was that of a man struggling with a rising tide, carried helplessly in the rush and swirl of it. Yet conscience had very little to say, and, when it did speak, got little but contempt for its pains. What had any clumsy code, social or moral, to do with it?
Why not learn that, at this age, there were in all earth but two peoples capable of exaltations of the kind referred to those who lived by the law of Moses, and those who lived by the law of Brahma. They alone could have cried you, Better a law without love than a love without law. Besides that, sympathy is in great degree a result of the mood we are in at the moment: anger forbids the emotion.
'I, too, once, in the middle of the desert, at Tidi-Kelt, I felt that way." Up to that time I had let him enjoy his exaltations without interruption. I understood too late the error that I had made in pronouncing that unfortunate sentence. His mocking nervous laughter began anew. "Ah! Indeed, at Tidi-Kelt?
