“ Hear an illustration, reader….
A lover finds his mistress asleep on a mossy bank; he wishes to catch a glimpse of her fair face…” “….How he calls aloud a name, and drops his burden and gazes on it wildly! He thus grasps, and cries, and gazes, because he no longer fears for waken by any sound he can utter—by any movement he can make. He thought his love slept sweetly: he finds she is stone dead.”
