Excerpt from Corinne, ou l'Italie Il en co???te davantage pour quitter sa patrie, quand il faut traverser la mer pour s'en ???loigner; tout est solennel dans un voyage dont l'oc???an marque les premiers pas il semble qu'un ab???me s'entr'ouvre derri???re vous et que le retour pourrait de venir ??? jamais impossible. D'ailleurs le Spectacle dela mer fait toujours une impression profonde; elle est l'image de cet infini qui attire sans cesse la pens???e et dans lequel sans cesse elle va se perdre. Oswald, appuy??? sur le gouvernail, et les regards fix???s sur les vagues, ???tait calme en apparence, car sa fiert??? et sa timidit??? r???unies ne lui permettaient presque jamais de mon trer, m???me ??? ses amis ce qu'il ???prouvait; mais des sentiments p???nibles l'agitaient int???rieurement. Il se rappelait le temps o??? le spectacle de la mer animait sa jeunesse, par le d???sir de fen dre les flots ??? la nage de mesurer sa force contre elle. Pour quoi se disait-il avec un regret amer pourquoi me livrer sans rel???che ??? la r???flexion? Il y a tant de plaisir dans la vie active dans ces exercices violents qui nous font sentir l'???nergie de l'exis tence! La mort elle - m???me alors ne semble qu'un ???v???nement peut - ???tre glorieux subit au moins, et que le d???clin n'a point pr???c???d???. Mais cette mort qui vient sans que le courage l'ait cher ch???e cette mort des t???n???bres qui vous enl???ve dans la nuit ce que vous avez de plus cher, qui m???prise vos regrets repousse votre bras et vous oppose sans piti??? les ???ternelles lois du temps et de la nature, cette mort inspire une sorte de m???pris pour la destin???e humaine, pour l'impuissance de la douleur, pour tous les vains efforts qui vont se briser contre la n???cessit???.
