'La lumière du soleil hivernale pâle coulait à travers la porte ouverte de la vieille église... alors ils l'avaient posée ici, puis, aux pieds de sa mère... il s'est souvenu que quand ils l'ont envoyé à lui et lui ont demandé si elle devait se reposer à côté de sa mère, il leur avait répondu, avec colère - non!... vrai, elle était morte, et jeune. Mais sans faute de sa part... mais ce n'était pas pour donner la rêne à des pensées comme celles-ci, soyez sûr, que John Lord Riverdale avait voyagé jusqu'ici

"Lord Riverdale's Repentance": the Last Home of the Riverdales - drawn by Samuel Read, 1862. Illustration to a short story by William J. Stewart. 'The pale wintry sunlight was streaming in through the open doorway of the old church...So they had laid her here, then, at her mother's feet...He remembered that when they sent to him and asked should she rest by her mother's side, he had answered them, angrily - no!...True, she had died, and young. But from no fault of his...But it was not to give the rein to thoughts like these, be sure, that John Lord Riverdale had travelled hither this wintry day to the last home of his lordly race...the wintry sunlight had gone, and the old church felt very damp and chill...The night closed in with strange and startling rapidity; the shadows of the old tombs and rare carved work were blotted out abruptly; the western windows, a few moments back warm with a mellow light, grew chilly grey...He had stood so long in that posture, leaning forward on his stick, that, when he essayed to move, his muscles were stiff and declined to perform their office...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
