The western sky was of the color of a soda-water bottle become glorified; and in this vast breadth of shining clear green lay one long island of cloud a pure scarlet.

He said: "You must not be afraid of me. I love you." Then the tears trickled down her pale cheeks. He knelt down by her and kissed "La lunga man d'ogni bellezza piena...."
The sea was leaden-hued and apparently still, though the booming of the Atlantic swell into the great caverns could be heard; Staffa, and Lunga, and the Dutchman were of a dismal black; the brighter colors of Ulva and Colonsay seemed coldly gray and green; and heavy banks of cloud lay along the land, running out to Ru-Treshanish.
