CRAY MONK.
One af tornojn, late in September,
many y.-ai:? ago, I found myself
.wauuering over one of tko moun?
tains of the. Bernese O borland, with?
out any conception as to the road I
should take to reach my he'el in the
valley beneath. It was a strange
"predicament to be in. I was entirely
alone, unaccompanied even.by a dog;
bot. I waa not dismayed, although it
was beginning to grow dusk. I
wandered on, never meeting with
any human being. It. gradually be?
came darker, and tho huge forms of
^he snow mountains looked larger
and more sharply defined against the
Say evening sky. The giant ---
om was at my back, with its
glaciers, looking cold and grim, and
very indistinct, while tho top of the
mountain was lost in' the rapidly
increasing volumes of mist and vapor.
I was descending a water-course
supposed to be dry; but it was hot
really so, the mountain torrents hav?
ing already begr?n, to swell; in pome
?laces it was impassable. Evidently
had lost the path. I turned and
looked around me in some bewilder?
ment. The prospect was not ex?
hilarating. To descend into the
valley seemed a perilous venture, if
not an impossible feat, at that late
hour; and to spend the night in this
Alpine solitude, sounded better in
perspective than it was in reality.
Soddenly, some feet above me, I
discovered through tho gloom a glim?
mering light, then another, and a
third appeared. These lights seem?
ed to me to proceed from some
large building, cf which I oould not
perceive the faintest outline. I lost
no moro time in mere surmises, but
sprang up toward the friendly bea?
cons. They seemed to recede as I
advanoed; the ascent became more
toilsome, rugged and steep, the path
winding painfully, as is the way of
these acclivities in Switzerland. At
length I reached; after another hard
climb, an old postern-door, almost
"hoked up with weeds and rubbish.
Here I paused again, to discover
what I could in the dim light. It
appeared to be the hack-entrance to
some large building. I struok at the
door loudly with my staff, bat met
with no other response than the deep
baying of a St. Bernard dog. This
?roved to me that I had found some
abitntion, and I resolved to try and
discover its main entrance. Accord?
ingly, I skirted a low deep wall sunk
in a fosae. and tr? mv rrr^t joy, ?pc~
turning the corner, ? came in front
of the building. It was evidently a
monastery, surrounded by its wall
and fosse, long, low, irregularly
shaped, the great proportion of it
hidden in trees.
I summoned up oourage to mount
a few moss-eaten stone steps, and
fve the large bell as strong a pull as
could. It resounded with a so?
lemn peal, startling the air with its
vibrations. I had to wait some little
time before I heard the heavy door
unbarred. It gave way with a clang,
and there appeared the tall figure of
a monk, habited in a gray dress, with
a large white cross upon his breast.
I told bim him my tale in French.
He understood me, thou li ho re?
plied in Italian, and his words were
P?W|11lrt|lllll? | -| I ll I i| m
Ithoaeo&elftnl ? ?Kit^ that,
whoever I might be, I could reoeive
traveler waa ever turned away from
those doors.
I thanked kim in the best Italian
finger, for I was chilled to the very
bones, and waa,-.moreover, both
1 hungry and thirsty. MT oonduotor
ran the whole length of the building,
: as I could not see the other end of it
? By the dismal light of a lamp, hong
from, the coiling by a ohain, I disco?
vered that several doom wera- ranged
! on either side this passage, and on
our way, ? we passed ; openings reveal?
ing ?ignia or stone stairs.
However, I. had not time for any
extended or acourate observations,
and we passed these, till my ghostly
oonduotor ushered me into a good
sized, plainly-furnished apartment,
made cheorful by a lance wood fire,
that blazed, crackled arid sparkled
in the capacious chimney. The fur
nil . o consisted of deal settles, and a
long table of the" same material,
stretching almost the whole length
pf the room. Bound this table were
seated about seven ' or eight monks,
habited in gray, the white cross
standing ont conspicuously upon the
breast of each. AU lose upon my
entrance, and I was welcomed by the
Prior, with a grave and dignified
courtesy almost kingly in its bearing.
He invited me to warm myself at the
fire, while my supper was preparing,
in so kind and friendly a manner,
that I felt at once thoroughly at ease.
We soon sat down to supper, a plen?
tiful meal, consisting of but two
dishes-boiled maccaroni and stewed
chamois, or goafs flesh, washed down
by a flask of pure chabalis, a wine
evidently brought out for my special
use, as none of the monks partook of
it. The brethren ate but very
sparingly; neither did they overdo
otherwise, I judged, by their lean
and meagre countenances. The
Prior was the only one who entered
into conversation with me. I found
him a man of remarkable powers of
mind, and possessing erudition; in?
deed, he seemed to mo to be well ac?
quainted with almost every branch
of ancient and modern learning.
I find it difficult to describe the
outward physique of Father Paul,
for such was the Prior's cognomen,
though it made the most profound
impression upon me. Even at this
distance of time, I can distinctly re?
call every lineament of that noble
countenance, stamped with dignity
and goodness in every line. The ex?
pression of the face was in general
melancholy, even sad; but at times a
smile of rare beauty, almost feminine
in its tenderness, illumined his pole
features, like a ray of sunshine. His
oyes, of a deep, dark blue, lighted
upi when interested in any subject,
with an almost unearthly radiance.
The contour of the nose, chin and
mouth was perfect; while the broad
and massive brow displayed the
splendor of his intellect and his rare
gifts. When my eyes met his seri?
ous yet kindly glanee, I felt at once
that I could trust him; and, upon the
other hand, he seemed to have some
secret, yet powerful, attraction to?
wards me. Upon a future day, 1
learned the reason of this.
After a few hours spent in conver?
sation, Father Paul conduoted me tc
my dormitory.
Before I retired, I had felt s
strange shiver run through my frame,
and began to fear that my exposure
to the chill night air, even thougt
for a comparatively short time, had
given me a severe cold. My fenn
were not groundless. I passed :
restless night, slept fitfully, and nn
dreams were a weird, fantastic jumbh
of my evening's adventure. I wa:
haunted by the countenance of Fa
ther Paul, whose benign and striking
aspect had so impressed me. I wok?
quite early in the morning, ere da;
dawn, and heard the monks perform
ing their orisons in solemn an<
sepulchral tones, which rose abovi
the roar of the wind; it had been ai
awful night, and the storm had no
entirely ceased.
A few days before, when upon on
of my mountaineering expeditions
I had slipped down and bruised m;
shoulder. The injured part no\
gave me such pain, that I was quit
unable to rise from my bed. Thu
it seemed I must remain at the mo
nostery for at least some days. I fel
considerable uneasiness. How wouli
the brethren like such an imposi
tion upon their hospitality? Thes
thought.s wearied me, but they wer
soon all dispelled, when Father P?v
entered my apartment, surprised a
my non-appearance to partake of th
breakfast ho had himself provide
for me. He quickly saw the state c
the case, and proved himself a phys:
cian as well as a learned monk; pr<
scribed for me, enjoined rest an
quiet, applied a soothing lotion t
my sprained shoulder, and cheere
mv somewhat drooping spirits, b
telling me I was not the first wai
farer who had been nursed au
tended by the Gray Monks. Coi
siderably re-assured by his kine
ness, my pain alleviated by his renn
dies, I sOon sank into a refreshin
sleep. When I woke, the autum
sun was high in the heavens. I
tho end of a week, I began slowly 1
recover, but was told by Father Pa
health tras quite re-eatabliahod.
Upon tiie morning of the eighth
dey, though I waa still weak; I re?
quested Father Paul to fulfill his
promise to ^ow me orar the mo
naatery. ^H^w?jM)^?y^tod re
son, I w?l ?M?WiWlBpfifSt conduct
yon to the lfBnSryy-^here I spend
many hours every day. It contains
many things of interest. You will
see that in this monastery, we have
not been behind-hand in learning or
AJ?faEa^ihe library' a large and
well-fnrniahed chamber; in this re?
spect a striking contrast to the rest
of the rooms in the monastery. The
shelves wera well stored with books
upon nearlv every subject, and con?
tained a collection of the rarest and
costliest manuscripts in several an?
cient languages. Splendidly em?
blazoned and illuminated missals,
gorgeously bound, and clasped vo?
lumes, met my delighted gaze. The
good Father enjoyed my surprise and
rapture over these rare works of art,
and the time passed delightfully.
At length I became wearied, and
Father Paul, leading me to the deep
embrasure of the windows, quietly
seated me, and told me to look at the
fair prospect without. I did so, and
involuntarily started back. I had
not before seen how strikingly the
monastery was situated. It was built
tipon the verge of a precipice. . .From
this window, I gazed in Lo a descent
of several hundred feet Below,
almost invisible, like a thread of
liquid silver, rolled what was in
reality an impetuous mountain tor?
rent, which, ' when swollen by the
winter rains, rushed at head-long
speed down the valley, carrying all
before it. Beyond, rose the giant
Alpine peaks, npon this clear day,
dazzling and bright with the sun's
rays reflected upon their glaciers and
snow-fields. I gazed long in deep
admiration, searching into the depths
of the valley, until my head became
dizzy, and I felt mortified that my
entire recovery was so long delayed.
The good Father drew down the
blind to hide the bright glare of tho
noon-tide sun; and seating himself
beside me, engaged me in conversa?
tion, and drew out of me the few
particulars of my short life. He
sighed deeply two or three times at
its conclusion, and a spasm of pain
contracted his features, while he
gazed earnestly into my face, ex?
claiming: "You are so like-so like."
I was much surprised, and Father
Paul, making an effort to recover
himself, said sadly: "I owe yon an
explanation, my son, of my strange
remark. You shall have it; but it
must be a brief one, for it is a sub?
ject upon which I cannot trust my?
self to speak. You are the living
image of my dear young brother,
long since dead! He was the only
tie that bound me to tho world, and
when I lost him, I took the vows of
a monk. Never since then have
I left these walls. Understand, now,
the secret of my sudden love for you.
My life will die out when you leave
this monastery; yet, go you must, as
soon as you are able; for it is against
our rules to detain any one here,
uuless ho has need of our services."!
