We often thought Ruskin did not feel these losses, and was a little hard when news came that old friends were gone. But under the apparent stoicism there was much real emotion ; indeed, some of his later attacks of mental illness followed such events. I do not say they were the only causes, but they contributed. In April 1887, the sudden death of Laurence Hilliard, on board ship in the ^Egean, undoubtedly turned the balance, and intensified weakness and worry into illness of many months' durati...on. In this case he wrote : *' A heavy warning to me, were warning needed. But I fear death too constantly, and feel it too fatally, 102 ' RUSKIN RELICS as it is. " I think his fear of death was purely the dread of leaving his work undone, with some shrinking of the possible pain ; his sense of death was in the growing limitation of his powers, which he could only forget in the presence of beautiful landscape. Thus next day, on the Lucca mountains, he " sat long watching the soft sunlighted classic hills, plumed and downy with wood, the burning russet of fallen chestnuts for foreground, thinking how lovely the world was in its light, when given.
