Excerpt from The Hundred Days
Bernard st. Armand drew rein an instant upon the border of the wood to watch the glory of the setting sun as it dipped, a mighty arc, into the rolling waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Then he buttoned his cape tightly about his beardless Chin, and turned his willing horse toward the desolate chalet which had become his home.
How still it was - how expressive of the true wood land solitude, the mossy path with the pines above him and the pines below; the green mountains for his altitudes; the molten, fiery sea for his remote} horizon.
