CHAPTER VIII.

In Which ! Understand the Feelings OF

So, I surmised, had been under

and this was the morning Of the sec

What had been happening to her all

sound and breath Of the sea, my an

As stood on the little rocky plat

had burned my way, and looked down
into the glimmering chasm beneath.
and heard the fresh voice Of the sea
huskily rumbling and reverberating
about hidden grottoes and channels,
all that Calypso was to me came back
with the keenness Of sword through
my heart. All there was my treasure
-as had known when my eyes first
beheld her-compared with which that
gold and silver In there, whose CLEAN

seen Calypso standing in the moonlight,
that, for moment, dreamed 1t was
the same, and started to run down 1t,
thinking, indeed, that my troubles
were over-that In another moment
would emerge through that enchanted
door and face the sea.
But alas instead Of a broad shining
doorway, and open arms of freedom
widespread for me to leap into, came
at last to a mere long narrow slit
through which / could gaze as man
