Description
Excerpt from The Antagonists Across the meadows, there stood the great encamp ment of an army, the ghostly white tents of the mist, the dim forms of the willows and the may trees, like horses tethered by their side. Only the cattle moved there - a cow at early grazing, shifting one reluctant step at a time and with another being lost amidst the white encampment of the mist. By the river side, the tips of the reeds pricked out, a thousand bayonet-points into the sun. The pale pink of the willow herb had already faintly caught the light; and above all this, away up into the zenith of the cloudless sky was a glow of golden primrose gilding the tops of the elm trees and wrapping the heights of the uplands in the warm promise of a faultless day.
