    The very place, where he have been alive, Undead...
    The very place, where he have been alive, Undead for all these centuries, is full of strangeness of the geologic and chemical worldThere are deep caverns and fissures that reach none know whitherThere have been volcanoes, some of whose openings still send out waters of strange properties, and gases that kill or make to vivifyDoubtless, there is something magnetic or electric in some of these combinations of occult forces which work for physical life in strange way, and in himself were from the first some great qualitiesIn a hard and warlike time he was celebrate that he have more iron nerve, more subtle brain, more braver heart, than any manIn him some vital principle have in strange way found their utmostAnd as his body keep strong and grow and thrive, so his brain grow tooAll this without that diabolic aid which is surely to himFor it have to yield to the powers that come from, and are, symbolic of goodAnd now this is what he is to usHe have infect you, oh forgive me, my dear, that I must say such, but it is for good of you that I speakHe infect you in such wise, that even if he do no more, you have only to live, to live in your own old, sweet way, and so in time, death, which is of man's common lot and with God's sanction, shall make you like to himThis must not be! We have sworn together that it must notThus are we ministers of God's own wishThat the world, and men for whom His Son die, will not be given over to monsters, whose very existence would defame HimHe have allowed us to redeem one soul already, and we go out as the old knights of the Cross to redeem moreLike them we shall travel towards the sunriseAnd like them, if we fall, we fall in good cause

    He paused and I said, "But will not the Count take his rebuff wisely? Since he has been driven from England, will he not avoid it, as a tiger does the village from which he has been hunted?"

    "Aha!" he said, "your simile of the tiger good, for me, and I shall adopt himYour maneater, as they of India call the tiger who has once tasted blood of the human, care no more for the other prey, but prowl unceasing till he get himThis that we hunt from our village is a tiger, too, a maneater, and he never cease to prowlNay, in himself he is not one to retire and stay afarIn his life, his living life, he go over the Turkey frontier and attack his enemy on his own groundHe be beaten back, but did he stay? No! He come again, and again, and againLook at his persistence and enduranceWith the child-brain that was to him he have long since conceive the idea of coming to a great cityWhat does he do? He find out the place of all the world most of promise for himThen he deliberately set himself down to prepare for the taskHe find in patience just how is his strength, and what are his powersHe learn new social life, new environment of old ways, the politics, the law, the finance, the science, the habit of a new land and a new people who have come to be since he wasHis glimpse that he have had, whet his appetite only and enkeen his desireNay, it help him to grow as to his brainFor it all prove to him how right he was at the first in his surmisesHe have done this alone, all alone! From a ruin tomb in a forgotten landWhat more may he not do when the greater world of thought is open to himHe that can smile at death, as we know himWho can flourish in the midst of diseases that kill off whole peoplesOh! If such an one was to come from God, and not the Devil, what a force for good might he not be in this old world of oursBut we are pledged to set the world freeOur toil must be in silence, and our efforts all in shop secret
