A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Chateau Saint-R emy What? Can you not hear it, the rumbling of the earthquake beneath your feet; and the signs in the heavens above your heads? 0, bhnd, and deaf, and foolish! And the storm wiU break, like the hurricane of fire on Gomorrah; and you will sink beneath it, as the doomed cities sank for ever under the lake of bitumen and sulphur! You are mad, mad, mad! These books have turned your mind. Give them up, Maurice, and get your horse and dogs to-morrow, and go into the forests and the pine-woods, and get back your health of mind and body. But I tell you tis-coming, coming, and is at hand the day of vengeance and retribution. What time is this to think of horses and dogs, when the earth is shaking beneath our feet? You re a dreamer of dreams, Maurice deB rignon, a seer of visions and a dreamer of dreams! And mark you, that is a dangerous frame of mind for a young man. Chacun dson metier! And the lot of a young man is to mount a horse, not to sit on a tripod; and to look into his ladys eyes, and not into the glass of a clairvoyant. It needs no tripod and no glass to see what is at our doors, Ren rejoined his companion moodily. I hear the falling of the axe, and that most terrible of sounds the onrushing of a maddened people! You need a doctor, my friend, said Ren6 Pereyra.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
