You
will
find
near
this
place
,
if
you
follow
not
too
tardily
,
a
dead
hare
;
eat
and
be
refreshed
.
Come
on
,
my
enemy
;
we
have
yet
to
wrestle
for
our
lives
,
but
many
hard
and
miserable
hours
must
you
endure
until
that
period
shall
arrive
.
"
Scoffing
devil
!
Again
do
I
vow
vengeance
;
again
do
I
devote
thee
,
miserable
fiend
,
to
torture
and
death
.
Never
will
I
give
up
my
search
until
he
or
I
perish
;
and
then
with
what
ecstasy
shall
I
join
my
Elizabeth
and
my
departed
friends
,
who
even
now
prepare
for
me
the
reward
of
my
tedious
toil
and
horrible
pilgrimage
!
As
I
still
pursued
my
journey
to
the
northward
,
the
snows
thickened
and
the
cold
increased
in
a
degree
almost
too
severe
to
support
.
The
peasants
were
shut
up
in
their
hovels
,
and
only
a
few
of
the
most
hardy
ventured
forth
to
seize
the
animals
whom
starvation
had
forced
from
their
hiding-places
to
seek
for
prey
.
The
rivers
were
covered
with
ice
,
and
no
fish
could
be
procured
;
and
thus
I
was
cut
off
from
my
chief
article
of
maintenance
.
The
triumph
of
my
enemy
increased
with
the
difficulty
of
my
labours
.
One
inscription
that
he
left
was
in
these
words
:
"
Prepare
!
Your
toils
only
begin
;
wrap
yourself
in
furs
and
provide
food
,
for
we
shall
soon
enter
upon
a
journey
where
your
sufferings
will
satisfy
my
everlasting
hatred
.
"
My
courage
and
perseverance
were
invigorated
by
these
scoffing
words
;
I
resolved
not
to
fail
in
my
purpose
,
and
calling
on
heaven
to
support
me
,
I
continued
with
unabated
fervour
to
traverse
immense
deserts
,
until
the
ocean
appeared
at
a
distance
and
formed
the
utmost
boundary
of
the
horizon
.
Oh
!
How
unlike
it
was
to
the
blue
seasons
of
the
south
!
Covered
with
ice
,
it
was
only
to
be
distinguished
from
land
by
its
superior
wildness
and
ruggedness
.
The
Greeks
wept
for
joy
when
they
beheld
the
Mediterranean
from
the
hills
of
Asia
,
and
hailed
with
rapture
the
boundary
of
their
toils
.
I
did
not
weep
,
but
I
knelt
down
and
with
a
full
heart
thanked
my
guiding
spirit
for
conducting
me
in
safety
to
the
place
where
I
hoped
,
notwithstanding
my
adversary
's
gibe
,
to
meet
and
grapple
with
him
.
Some
weeks
before
this
period
I
had
procured
a
sledge
and
dogs
and
thus
traversed
the
snows
with
inconceivable
speed
.
I
know
not
whether
the
fiend
possessed
the
same
advantages
,
but
I
found
that
,
as
before
I
had
daily
lost
ground
in
the
pursuit
,
I
now
gained
on
him
,
so
much
so
that
when
I
first
saw
the
ocean
he
was
but
one
day
's
journey
in
advance
,
and
I
hoped
to
intercept
him
before
he
should
reach
the
beach
.
With
new
courage
,
therefore
,
I
pressed
on
,
and
in
two
days
arrived
at
a
wretched
hamlet
on
the
seashore
.
I
inquired
of
the
inhabitants
concerning
the
fiend
and
gained
accurate
information
.
A
gigantic
monster
,
they
said
,
had
arrived
the
night
before
,
armed
with
a
gun
and
many
pistols
,
putting
to
flight
the
inhabitants
of
a
solitary
cottage
through
fear
of
his
terrific
appearance
.
He
had
carried
off
their
store
of
winter
food
,
and
placing
it
in
a
sledge
,
to
draw
which
he
had
seized
on
a
numerous
drove
of
trained
dogs
,
he
had
harnessed
them
,
and
the
same
night
,
to
the
joy
of
the
horror-struck
villagers
,
had
pursued
his
journey
across
the
sea
in
a
direction
that
led
to
no
land
;
and
they
conjectured
that
he
must
speedily
be
destroyed
by
the
breaking
of
the
ice
or
frozen
by
the
eternal
frosts
.
On
hearing
this
information
I
suffered
a
temporary
access
of
despair
.
He
had
escaped
me
,
and
I
must
commence
a
destructive
and
almost
endless
journey
across
the
mountainous
ices
of
the
ocean
,
amidst
cold
that
few
of
the
inhabitants
could
long
endure
and
which
I
,
the
native
of
a
genial
and
sunny
climate
,
could
not
hope
to
survive
.
Yet
at
the
idea
that
the
fiend
should
live
and
be
triumphant
,
my
rage
and
vengeance
returned
,
and
like
a
mighty
tide
,
overwhelmed
every
other
feeling
.
After
a
slight
repose
,
during
which
the
spirits
of
the
dead
hovered
round
and
instigated
me
to
toil
and
revenge
,
I
prepared
for
my
journey
.
I
exchanged
my
land-sledge
for
one
fashioned
for
the
inequalities
of
the
frozen
ocean
,
and
purchasing
a
plentiful
stock
of
provisions
,
I
departed
from
land
.
I
can
not
guess
how
many
days
have
passed
since
then
,
but
I
have
endured
misery
which
nothing
but
the
eternal
sentiment
of
a
just
retribution
burning
within
my
heart
could
have
enabled
me
to
support
.
Immense
and
rugged
mountains
of
ice
often
barred
up
my
passage
,
and
I
often
heard
the
thunder
of
the
ground
sea
,
which
threatened
my
destruction
.
But
again
the
frost
came
and
made
the
paths
of
the
sea
secure
.
By
the
quantity
of
provision
which
I
had
consumed
,
I
should
guess
that
I
had
passed
three
weeks
in
this
journey
;
and
the
continual
protraction
of
hope
,
returning
back
upon
the
heart
,
often
wrung
bitter
drops
of
despondency
and
grief
from
my
eyes
.
Despair
had
indeed
almost
secured
her
prey
,
and
I
should
soon
have
sunk
beneath
this
misery
.
Once
,
after
the
poor
animals
that
conveyed
me
had
with
incredible
toil
gained
the
summit
of
a
sloping
ice
mountain
,
and
one
,
sinking
under
his
fatigue
,
died
,
I
viewed
the
expanse
before
me
with
anguish
,
when
suddenly
my
eye
caught
a
dark
speck
upon
the
dusky
plain
.
I
strained
my
sight
to
discover
what
it
could
be
and
uttered
a
wild
cry
of
ecstasy
when
I
distinguished
a
sledge
and
the
distorted
proportions
of
a
well-known
form
within
.
Oh
!
With
what
a
burning
gush
did
hope
revisit
my
heart
!
Warm
tears
filled
my
eyes
,
which
I
hastily
wiped
away
,
that
they
might
not
intercept
the
view
I
had
of
the
daemon
;
but
still
my
sight
was
dimmed
by
the
burning
drops
,
until
,
giving
way
to
the
emotions
that
oppressed
me
,
I
wept
aloud
.
