Quand autrefois à Balbec Albertine m'attendait sous
les arcades d'Incarville et sautait dans ma voiture, non seulement elle
n'avait pas encore «épaissi», mais à la suite d'excès d'exercice
elle avait trop fondu; maigre, enlaidie par un vilain chapeau qui ne
laissait
dépasser
qu'un petit bout de vilain nez et voir de côté que
des joues blanches comme des vers blancs, je retrouvais bien peu d'elle,
assez cependant pour qu'au saut qu'elle faisait dans ma voiture, je
susse que c'était elle, qu'elle avait été exacte au rendez-vous et
n'était pas allée ailleurs; et cela suffit; ce qu'on aime est trop
dans le passé, consiste trop dans le temps perdu ensemble pour qu'on
ait besoin de toute la femme; on veut seulement être sûr que c'est
elle, ne pas se tromper sur l'identité autrement importante que la
beauté pour ceux qui aiment; les joues peuvent se creuser, le corps
s'amaigrir, même pour ceux qui ont été d'abord le plus orgueilleux,
aux yeux des autres, de leur domination sur une beauté, ce petit bout
de museau, ce signe où se résume la personnalité permanente d'une
femme, cet extrait algébrique, cette constante, cela suffit pour qu'un
homme attendu dans le plus grand monde et qui l'aimait, ne puisse
disposer d'une seule de ses soirées parce qu'il passe son temps à
peigner et à dépeigner, jusqu'à l'heure de s'endormir, la femme qu'il
aime, ou simplement à rester auprès d'elle, pour être avec elle, ou
pour qu'elle soit avec lui, ou seulement pour qu'elle ne soit pas avec
d'autres.

which fill the greater number of the pages, poems by little-

Waltz - Theory of International Relations |

From out the mass of never-dying ill,[cd]
The Plague, the Prince, the Stranger, and the Sword,
Vials of wrath but emptied to refill
And flow again, I cannot all record
That crowds on my prophetic eye: the Earth
And Ocean written o'er would not afford
Space for the annal, yet it shall go forth;
Yes, all, though not by human pen, is graven,
There where the farthest suns and stars have birth,
Spread like a banner at the gate of Heaven, 10
The bloody scroll of our millennial wrongs
Waves, and the echo of our groans is driven
Athwart the sound of archangelic songs,
And Italy, the martyred nation's gore,
Will not in vain arise to where belongs[ce]
Omnipotence and Mercy evermore:
Like to a harpstring stricken by the wind,
The sound of her lament shall, rising o'er
The Seraph voices, touch the
Almighty
Mind.
