an old man; who was; i think; the voteen; pointed to me; and screamed out something; and the crowd whitened; for all the faces had turned towards me。 i ran; and it was well for me that pullers of the oar are poorer men with their feet than with their arms and their bodies; and yet while i ran i scarcely heard the following feet or the angry voices; for many voices of exultation and lamentation; which were forgotten as a dream is forgotten the moment they were heard; seemed to be ringing in the air over my head。
there are moments even now when i seem to hear those voices of exultation and lamentation; and when the indefinite world; which has but half lost its mastery over my heart and my intellect; seems about to claim a perfect mastery; but i carry the rosary about my neck; and when i hear; or seem to hear them; i press it to my heart and say: he whose name is legion is at our doors deceiving our intellects with subtlety and flattering our hearts with beauty; and we have no trust but in thee; and then the war that rages within me at other times is still; and i am at peace。
