To the lighthouse (III)

10 years later, it is time to go to the place that might have been visited 10 years ago. Time passes. And, perhaps, the expedition came too late.

quotations:

he had made them come. he had forced them to come (...) since he had forced them to come against their wills.

Mrs Ramsay saying 'Life stand still here';

Mrs Ramsay making of the moment something permanent;

(...)

in the midst of chaos there was shape.

There was this expedition - they were going to the lighthouse, Mr Ramsay, Cam and James.

Yes, it must have been precisely here that she stood ten years ago. There was the wall; the hedge; the tree.

He had all the appearence of a leader making ready for an expedition (...) but with a pallor in their eyes which made her feel that they suffered something beyond their years in silence.

all was silence.

nobody seemed to have spoken for an age. Cam was tired of looking at the sea. Little bits of black cork had floated past; the fish were dead in the bottom of the boat. Still her father read, and James looked at him and she looked at him, and they vowed that they would fight tyranny to the death, and he went on reading quite unconscious of what they thought.

all was silence.
