David Elginbrod, Vol. 1 of 3 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from David Elginbrod, Vol. 3 of 3 Do still preserve your first informed grace, Whose shadow yet shines in your beauteous face. Spenser. - Hymn in Honour of Beauty. When Hugh came to himself, he was lying, in the first grey of the dawn, amidst the dews and vapours of the morning woods. He rose and looked around him. The Ghost's Walk lay in long silence before him. Here and there a little bird moved and peeped. The glory of a new day was climbing up the eastern coast of heaven. It would be a day of late summer, crowned with flame, and throbbing with ripening life. But for him the spirit was gone out of the world, and it was nought but a mass of blind, heartless forces.
