We'd find this one word: Love.
Man deceives himself! He sees how dark all is for him." Victor Hugo, La Legende
des siecles, part 3 CTenebres"), in Oeuvres completes, Poesie. vol. 9 (Paris ,
1883), pp. 164-165. Ending of the poem. [140a,5]
Euding of La unitl La uuit! La unit!" :
o sepulchers! I hear the fearful organ of the shadow,
Formed from all the cries of somber nature
AmI the crash of rocky reefs;
Death plays the clavier resounding through the branches,
And the keys, now black, now white, are aU
Your tomhstones and your hiers.
