He was the embodiment of morning, but the evening's visionary shadows softened the light in his eyes. Before him lay the road, a narrow, meandering way, which had as its winding com- panion a tiny, effervescent stream. Together they ran through sun- light and shade into the uneven, blue line of the distant mountains. The youth joined them. He moved easily along at the side of the road, listening to the broken bird songs as they mingled with the sound of the stream. Now and again he parted the grasses to discover a delicate flower or the interlaced stems of a ground vine. Often the flower was thorny or the vine stem rough to his touch, and he stooped to the brook to bathe his hands and touch the moisture to his lips. From time to time he rested, prone upon a green bank in the shade of a gnarled tree by the water's edge-rested and sometimes ate of some bits of food from a pocket slung from his belt. At noon he crept into the cool, green silence of a circle of overhanging bushes and lay vaguely dream- ing. Wood creatures padded and scurried near by. A frog sprang into the stream. A bird called, was answered, called again. With the passing of the sleepy heat of high noon, the youth arose and continued along the way, now by the brookside, now on the road. A soft breeze turned the leaves, parted and bent the grasses. The sun rolled steadily on until it was a glowing coal dropping to ash behind the ragged mountains where the twilight wind blew it to new life before its heat was gone. Streaks and splashes of vivid color painted the sky, burned a short moment, and, gradually fading, left thin, mauve smoke in the heavens. Shadows changed to dusk, dusk, to half dark. Silver mists rose up and up before the mountains until there were no mountains. The road, the stream and the youth went on-into the shadows, into the dusk, into the mists and on . . . . 17
