"Had I been compelled to tun back now, I would never have known the new landscape hidden behind the woody hill that shut off my horizon, nor penetrated the mystery beyond that other rosy-coloured one which stood behind it, not climbed the pass which, still farther traced and mauve soft line on the sky between snow-white peaks. Forebodings still arose in my mind only to fade in there powerlessness to disturb those wonderful hours."
