…ut the man himself remained unspeakably mysterious. He had a habit of disappearing for long periods, and it was rumoured that he had the secret of the Elixir of Life. For although he was known to be over eighty years of age, [22] his brightness and activity would have done credit to a man of forty; and the vitality of his whole being, the fire of his eyes, the quick conciseness of his mind, bore witness to an interior energy almost more than human.

Dream, while my restless brain probes deep The mysteries of its magic power, The secrets of forgotten sleep, The birth of knowledge as a flower !

So, in the secret of the shrine, Night keeps them nestled ; so the gloom Laps them in waves as smooth as wine, As glowing as the fery womb Of some young tigress, dark as doom, And swift as sunrise.
