Excerpt from Ray of Light

The shades of evening are falling on the pretty little village of Wetherley, gradually enveloping in a soft, shadowy mist the distant landscape, and causing the old ivy-crowned church-tower to look larger and darker in the fading light, and the forge-fire to seem brighter and blaze higher, and so stealth¿y the light fades, that one can scarcely see how every moment steals a ray away and leads the darkness on.
