It swept through the aisles like a rushing wind on an �����olian harp; at times it wailed with a voice like a woman's; at times it rose loud in an organ-note of triumph; at times it sank low into a pensive and melancholy flute-like symphony. It waxed and waned; it swelled and died away again; but no man saw how or whence it proceeded.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
