Maiden Castle Quotes

“And there came over him, as the sun of this pet day once more shone into his room, the old dark Homeric conception of death, with that terrifying multitude of the spirits of the dead surrounding us in their pitiful half-life and liable, on this day of their Cimmerian remembrance, when the minds of the living turn so desperately towards them, to rise thronging up, 'ethnea myria nekron', the myriad tribes of the dead, with a terrible cry!”
― John Cowper Powys, Maiden Castle
