R. Murray Gilchrist Quotes

By Now, At The End Of A Sloping Alley, We Had Reached The Shores Of A Vast Marsh. Some Unknown Quality In The Sparkling Water Had Stained Its Whole Bed A Bright Yellow. Green Leaves, Of Such A Sour Brightness As Almost Poisoned To Behold, Floated On The Surface Of The Rush-girdled Pools. Weeds Like Tempting Veils Of Mossy Velvet Grew Beneath In Vivid Contrast With The Soil. Alders And Willows Hung Over The Margin. From Where We Stood A Half-submerged Path Of Rough Stones, Threaded By Deep Swift Channels, Crossed To The Very Centre.
("The Basilisk")
