“(...) when the flowers hung lank and dead, their whites turning to rust and their greens to browns; when the spider and the beetle had resumed their accustomed dominance; when time-discoloured stone, and dust-encrusted mortar, and rusty, dank iron, and glimmer of a candle, the effect was more miserable and sordid than could have been imagined.

There seemed a strange stillness over everything; but as I listened I heard as if from down below in the valley the howling of many wolves.”
