He
manifested
the
greatest
eagerness
to
be
upon
deck
to
watch
for
the
sledge
which
had
before
appeared
;
but
I
have
persuaded
him
to
remain
in
the
cabin
,
for
he
is
far
too
weak
to
sustain
the
rawness
of
the
atmosphere
.
I
have
promised
that
someone
should
watch
for
him
and
give
him
instant
notice
if
any
new
object
should
appear
in
sight
.
62
Such
is
my
journal
of
what
relates
to
this
strange
occurrence
up
to
the
present
day
.
The
stranger
has
gradually
improved
in
health
but
is
very
silent
and
appears
uneasy
when
anyone
except
myself
enters
his
cabin
.
Yet
his
manners
are
so
conciliating
and
gentle
that
the
sailors
are
all
interested
in
him
,
although
they
have
had
very
little
communication
with
him
.
For
my
own
part
,
I
begin
to
love
him
as
a
brother
,
and
his
constant
and
deep
grief
fills
me
with
sympathy
and
compassion
.
He
must
have
been
a
noble
creature
in
his
better
days
,
being
even
now
in
wreck
so
attractive
and
amiable
.
63
I
said
in
one
of
my
letters
,
my
dear
Margaret
,
that
I
should
find
no
friend
on
the
wide
ocean
;
yet
I
have
found
a
man
who
,
before
his
spirit
had
been
broken
by
misery
,
I
should
have
been
happy
to
have
possessed
as
the
brother
of
my
heart
.

I
shall
continue
my
journal
concerning
the
stranger
at
intervals
,
should
I
have
any
fresh
incidents
to
record
.
August

My
affection
for
my
guest
increases
every
day
.
He
excites
at
once
my
admiration
and
my
pity
to
an
astonishing
degree
.
How
can
I
see
so
noble
a
creature
destroyed
by
misery
without
feeling
the
most
poignant
grief
?
He
is
so
gentle
,
yet
so
wise
;
his
mind
is
so
cultivated
,
and
when
he
speaks
,
although
his
words
are
culled
with
the
choicest
art
,
yet
they
flow
with
rapidity
and
unparalleled
eloquence
.
66
He
is
now
much
recovered
from
his
illness
and
is
continually
on
the
deck
,
apparently
watching
for
the
sledge
that
preceded
his
own
.
Yet
,
although
unhappy
,
he
is
not
so
utterly
occupied
by
his
own
misery
but
that
he
interests
himself
deeply
in
the
projects
of
others
.
He
has
frequently
conversed
with
me
on
mine
,
which
I
have
communicated
to
him
without
disguise
.
He
entered
attentively
into
all
my
arguments
in
favour
of
my
eventual
success
and
into
every
minute
detail
of
the
measures
I
had
taken
to
secure
it
.
I
was
easily
led
by
the
sympathy
which
he
evinced
to
use
the
language
of
my
heart
,
to
give
utterance
to
the
burning
ardour
of
my
soul
,
and
to
say
,
with
all
the
fervour
that
warmed
me
,
how
gladly
I
would
sacrifice
my
fortune
,
my
existence
,
my
every
hope
,
to
the
furtherance
of
my
enterprise
.
One
man
's
life
or
death
were
but
a
small
price
to
pay
for
the
acquirement
of
the
knowledge
which
I
sought
,
for
the
dominion
I
should
acquire
and
transmit
over
the
elemental
foes
of
our
race
.
As
I
spoke
,
a
dark
gloom
spread
over
my
listener
's
countenance
.
At
first
I
perceived
that
he
tried
to
suppress
his
emotion
;
he
placed
his
hands
before
his
eyes
,
and
my
voice
quivered
and
failed
me
as
I
beheld
tears
trickle
fast
from
between
his
fingers
;
a
groan
burst
from
his
heaving
breast
.
I
paused
;
at
length
he
spoke
,
in
broken
accents
:
'
Unhappy
man
!
Do
you
share
my
madness
?
Have
you
drunk
also
of
the
intoxicating
draught
?
Hear
me
;
let
me
reveal
my
tale
,
and
you
will
dash
the
cup
from
your
lips
!
'
67
Such
words
,
you
may
imagine
,
strongly
excited
my
curiosity
;
but
the
paroxysm
of
grief
that
had
seized
the
stranger
overcame
his
weakened
powers
,
and
many
hours
of
repose
and
tranquil
conversation
were
necessary
to
restore
his
composure
.

Having
conquered
the
violence
of
his
feelings
,
he
appeared
to
despise
himself
for
being
the
slave
of
passion
;
and
quelling
the
dark
tyranny
of
despair
,
he
led
me
again
to
converse
concerning
myself
personally
.
He
asked
me
the
history
of
my
earlier
years
.
The
tale
was
quickly
told
,
but
it
awakened
various
trains
of
reflection
.
I
spoke
of
my
desire
of
finding
a
friend
,
of
my
thirst
for
a
more
intimate
sympathy
with
a
fellow
mind
than
had
ever
fallen
to
my
lot
,
and
expressed
my
conviction
that
a
man
could
boast
of
little
happiness
who
did
not
enjoy
this
blessing
.
69
'
I
agree
with
you
,
'
replied
the
stranger
;
'
we
are
unfashioned
creatures
,
but
half
made
up
,
if
one
wiser
,
better
,
dearer
than
ourselves
--
such
a
friend
ought
to
be
--
do
not
lend
his
aid
to
perfectionate
our
weak
and
faulty
natures
.
I
once
had
a
friend
,
the
most
noble
of
human
creatures
,
and
am
entitled
,
therefore
,
to
judge
respecting
friendship
.
You
have
hope
,
and
the
world
before
you
,
and
have
no
cause
for
despair
.
But
I
--
I
have
lost
everything
and
can
not
begin
life
anew
.
'

As
he
said
this
his
countenance
became
expressive
of
a
calm
,
settled
grief
that
touched
me
to
the
heart
.
But
he
was
silent
and
presently
retired
to
his
cabin
.
