A call from his lawyer for some papers necessary to complete an arrangement in which he was much interested, had sent Sir Horace to Maitland Park, in the midst of the London season, to explore the yet unfathomed recesses of an old escritoire of Sir Thomas. He had been gone but two days when Edward received the following note from him, written, as it seemed, both in haste and agitation:
The way they've handled me proves it. Might be a good thing if they weren't so devilish intelligent!" He relapsed into silence, and for a while there came no sound but the cadenced dipping of many paddles as the boats, now perhaps a score in number, all slowly moved across the unfathomed black as though toward some objective common point.
Sheer terror had caught hold of him: and he headed blindly for the ring of natives, who broke away right and left, with shrill cries that gave the finishing touch to his terror. And now no more than a stretch of shelving turf lay between him and the unfathomed lake.
My eye had been couched into a secondary power of vision, by misery, by solitude, by sympathy with life in all its modes, by experience too early won, and by the sense of danger critically escaped. Suppose the case of a man suspended by some colossal arm over an unfathomed abyss, suspended, but finally and slowly withdrawn, it is probable that he would not smile for years.
Are you prepared to say, 'I know that the sweetness of Thy presence is the truest sweetness that I can taste; and lo! I give up all besides and my own self'? 'O God of good, the unfathomed Sea! Who would not yield himself to Thee?
The lady who had left her standing rejoined her and they drifted off together into the vast of the unfathomed, but not, I like to believe, the unfathomable. When the heat broke at last, after a fortnight, of course it did not break. That would have been a violence of which English weather would not have been capable.
The life of a poet such as I am is a perpetual marvel! the whole Universe ministers to my needs, Humanity becomes the merest bound slave to the caprice of my imperial imagination, with a thought I scale the stars, with a wish I float in highest ether among spheres undiscovered yet familiar to my fancy I converse with the spirits of flowers and fountains, and the love of women is a mere drop in the deep ocean of my unfathomed delight!
Oh if she knew what I was facing!" and such was the burden of all his broken words. The young girl now learned the secret which had been so long unfathomed. Vainly, with streaming eyes, she tried at first to reassure him, but the doctor told her it was of no use, the fever must take its course. Yet her hand upon his brow and cheek often seemed to have a subtle, quieting spell. Mr.
The same stars, that for thousands of unfathomed years had looked upon the changes of this nether world, gleamed pale, and pure, and steadfast upon their burning but transitory vow. In a few years what of the condemnation or the recorders of that vow would remain?
It is "of the Father," indeed. We picture to ourselves the pure joy of God in thought. Free from so many of our cumbrous processes, free from the limitations of slow-moving time, free from all imperfection, with an instantaneous thought as is His being, the intellect that is the center of all reason revolves in its unfathomed majesty. And man thinks too. God makes him think.
