[Gutenberg 36811] • The Hour Will Come: A Tale of an Alpine Cloister. Volumes I and II

Excerpt from The Hour Will Come, Vol. 1 of 2: A Tale of an Alpine Cloister

Woe to the lonely pilgrim who is wandering through the night in this boundless desert, in storm and snow, in impenetrable darkness; he is lost in nothingness, owned by neither Heaven nor Hell, and the earth knows him not! No ear can hear his cry for help, it is lost in vacancy; the raven and the wolf mark him down, but they tell no one of their mute prey.
