 The future sometimes seems to sob1 a low warning of the events it is bringing us, like some gathering2 though yet remote storm, which, in tones of the wind, in flushings of the firmament3, in clouds strangely torn, announces a blast strong to strew4 the sea with wrecks5; or commissioned to bring in fog the yellow taint6 of pestilence7 covering white Western isles8 with the poisoned exhalations of the East, dimming the lattices of English homes with the breath of Indian plague. At other times this future bursts suddenly, as if a rock had rent, and in it a grave had opened, whence issues the body of one that slept. Ere you are aware you stand face to face with a shrouded9 and unthought-of calamity—a new Lazarus.
 
Caroline Helstone went home from Hollow's Cottage in good health, as she imagined. On waking the next morning she felt oppressed with unwonted languor10. At breakfast, at each meal of the following day, she missed all sense of appetite. Palatable11 food was as ashes and sawdust to her.
 
"Am I ill?" she asked, and looked at herself in the glass. Her eyes were bright, their pupils dilated12, her cheeks seemed rosier
