Opis

Excerpt from The Sin-Eater: And Other Tales and Episodes To George Meredith. Here, where the sound of the falling wave is faintly to be heard, and rather as in the spiral chamber of a shell than in the windy open, I write these few dedicatory words. I am alone here, betwixt sea and sky, for there is no other living thing for the seeing on this bouldered height of Dűn-I except a single blue shadow that dreams slowly athwart the hillside. The bleating of lambs and ewes, the lowing of kine, these come up from the Machar that lies between the west slopes and the shoreless sea to the west; these ascend as the very smoke of sound. All round the island there is a continuous breathing: deeper and more prolonged on the west, where the sea-heart is; but audible everywhere. This moment, the seals on Soa are putting their breasts against the running tide: for I see a flashing of fins here and there in patches at the north end of the Sound, and already from the ruddy granite shores of the Ross there is a congregation of seafowl, - gannets and guillemots, skuas and herring-gulls, the long-necked northern-diver, the tern, the cormorant.
