Frightened By Some Alarm Of Sleep That Was Forgotten In The Moment Of Waking, A Little Boy Threw Back The Bedclothes And With Quick Heart And Breath Sat Listening To The Torrents Of Darkness That Went Rolling By. He Dared Not Open His Mouth To Scream Lest He Should Be Suffocated; He Dared Not Put Out His Arm To Search For The Bell-Rope Lest He Should Be Seized; He Dared Not Hide Beneath The Blankets Lest He Should Be Kept There; He Could Do Nothing Except Sit Up Trembling In A Vain Effort To Orientate Himself. Had The Room Really Turned Upside Down? On An Impulse Of Terror He Jumped Back From The Engorging Night And Bumped His Forehead On One Of The Brass Knobs Of The Bedstead. With Horror He Apprehended That What He Had So Often Feared Had Finally Come To Pass. An Earthquake Had Swallowed Up London In Spite Of Everybody's Assurance That London Could Not Be Swallowed Up By Earthquakes. He Was Going Down Down To Smoke And Fire . . . Or Was It The End Of The World? The Quick And The Dead . . . Skeletons . . . Thousands And Thousands Of Skeletons. [mehr]

It Will Perhaps Be Said, And Truly Felt, That The Following Is A Morbid Book. No Doubt The Subject Is A Morbid One, Because The Book Deliberately Gives A Picture Of A Diseased Spirit. But A Pathological Treatise, Dealing With Cancer Or Paralysis, Is Not Necessarily Morbid, Though It May Be Studied In A Morbid Mood. We Have Learnt Of Late Years, To Our Gain And Profit, To Think And Speak Of Bodily Ailments As Natural Phenomena, Not To Slur Over Them And Hide Them Away In Attics And Bedrooms. We No Longer Think Of Insanity As Demoniacal Possession, And We No Longer Immure People With Diseased Brains In The Secluded Apartments Of Lovely Houses. [mehr]

We Came Back Yesterday, After A Very Prosperous Time At Zermatt; We Have Been There Two Entire Months. Yes, It Was Certainly Prosperous! We Had Delicious Weather, And I Have Seen A Number Of Pleasant People. I Have Done A Great Deal Of Walking, I Have Read A Lot Of Novels And Old Poetry, I Have Sate About A Good Deal In The Open Air; But I Do Not Really Like Switzerland; There Are Of Course An Abundance Of Noble Wide-Hung Views, But There Are Few Vignettes, Little On Which The Mind And Heart Dwell With An Intimate And Familiar Satisfaction. Those Airy Pinnacles Of Toppling Rocks, Those Sheets Of Slanted Snow, Those Ice-Bound Crags--There Is A Sense Of Fear And Mystery About Them! One Does Not Know What Is Going On There, [mehr]

Aus dem Vorwort: Das Jesuitengesetz vom 4. Juli 1872 wurde bekanntlich vom Bundesrathe unter’m 20. Mai 1873 auch auf die Congregation der Missionspriester vom h. Vicenz von Paul (Lazaristen) ausgedehnt, und in Folge dessen wurden die Niederlassungen dieser Genossenschaft innerhalb der Grenzen des deutschen Reiches aufgelöst. Die Ordensmitglieder zerstreuten sich in alle Welt. P. Hugo von Rolshausen, in der Blüthe der Manneskraft und voll heiliger Begeisterung, ward in die abyssinische Mission gesandt. Hier wirkte er mehrere Jahre, mit heroischer Geduld und Hingebung die Schwierigkeiten des Klima’s, der Sprache und ungewohnten Lebensweise überwindend. Als Hungersnoth und Seuche am Ende des vorigen und im Anfange des laufenden Jahres Abyssinien heimsuchten, stand er als treuer Hirte mit geistlicher und leiblicher Hülfe den Leidenden unermüdlich bei, bis die Krankheit ihn selbst hinwegraffte. Er starb den schönsten Priestertod am 28. Januar dieses Jahres. Während der vier Jahre seiner Missionsthätigkeit in Abyssinien richtete er an seine Familie eine Reihe in religiöser und culturhistorischer Beziehung interessanter Briefe, welche hiermit der Oeffentlichkeit übergeben werden ... Rechtschreibung und Grammatik folgen der Originalausgabe von 1878, auf Frakturschrift wurde verzichtet. [mehr]
