It so fell that one dark evening in the month of June I was belated in the Bernese Oberland. Dusk overtook me toiling1 along the great Chamounix Road, and in the heart of a most desolate3 gorge4, whose towering snow-flung walls seemed—as the day sucked inwards to a point secret as a leech's mouth—to close about me like a monstrous5 amphitheatre of ghosts. The rutted road, dipping and climbing toilfully against the shouldering of great tumbled boulders6, or winning for itself but narrow foothold over slippery ridges8, was thawed10 clear of snow; but the cold soft peril14 yet lay upon its flanks thick enough for a wintry plunge15 of ten feet, or may be fifty where the edge of the causeway fell over to the lower furrows16 of the ravine. It was a matter of policy to go with caution, and a thing of some moment to hear the thud and splintering of little distant icefalls about one in the darkness. Now and again a cold arrow of wind would sing down from the frosty peaks above or jerk with a squiggle of laughter among the fallen slabs17 in the valley. And these were the only voices to prick19 me on through a dreariness20 lonely as death.
