And she! — the sinuous outUnes of that body of Corinthian bronze unconcealed by the feathery Ughtness of the white robe she wore; — the Creole eyes; — the pouting and passionate mouth; — and that cruel, sphinx-smile, that smile of Egypt, eter- nally pitiless, eternally mystical, — the smile she wore when I flimg myself like a worm before her to kiss her feet, and vainly shrieked to her to trample upon me, to spit upon me ! And after my fierce moment of vengeance, the smile of Egypt still remain...ed upon her dark face, as though moulded in everlasting bronze.
There was no rustle among the lianas, no stir among the dead leaves; yet she stood again be- fore me ! My heart seemed to cease its beatings ; — a chill as of those nights in which I had sailed Antarctic seas passed over me ! Robed in white as in the buried years, with lights like fireflies in her hair, and the same dark, elfish smile!
95 Digitized by Google FANTASTICS And suddenly the chill passed away with a fierce catacl3rsm of the blood, as though each of its cells were heated by vrfcanic fire; — for the strange words of the Hebrew canticle came to me like a far echo, — LOVE IS STRONG AS DEATH !
