These, the last to begin, are also the first to cease; then the castanets stop; and finally the whizzing dies;--but the full orchestra may remain in operation for several hours at a time, without pause. Heard from far away at night the sound is pleasant, and is really so much like the ringing of a bridle-bit, thar when you first listen to it you cannot but feel how much real poetry belongs to the name of this insect,--celebrated from old as playing at ghostly escort in ways where no man can pass

154. 6/36 the ghostly plaint of its insect-voices, 14/36 insect-melody, 17/36 the shrilling booth of the insect-seller at a night-festival, 21/36 the weird sweetness of the voices of the night, the magical quickening of remembrance by echoes of forest and field?, 24/36 the simple chant of a cricket can awaken whole fairy-swarms of tender and delicate fancies

159. 5/35 the room begins to fill with a delicate and ghostly music of indescribable sweetness,--a thin, thin silvery rippling and trilling as of tiniest electric bells. As the darkness deepens, the sound becomes sweeter,--sometimes swelling till the whole house seems to vibrate with the elfish resonance,--sometimes thinning down into the faintest imaginable thread of a voice. But loud or low, it keeps a penetrating quality that is weird ... All night the atomy thus sings: he ceases only when the temple bell proclaims the hour of dawn 15/35 Now this tiny song is a song of love,--vague love of the unseen and unknown, 19/35 the amorous value of song, 22/35 he sings the song of his race as it was sung a myriad years ago, and as faultlessly as if he understood the exact significance of every note. Of course he did not learn the song. It is a song of organic memory,--deep, dim memory of other quintillions of lives, when the ghost of him shrilled at night from the dewy grasses of the hills. Then that song brought him love,--and death, 30/35 he sings now, 32/35 he cries to the dust of the past,--he calls to the silence and the gods for the return of time

160. 10/36 cease to sing, 11/36 the plaintive, sweet, unanswered trilling, 21/36 my grass-lark still sings at the close of the eleventh month, ~~[30/36 the twenty-ninth of the eleventh month],~~ 33/36 my grass-lark was silent, 34/36 the silent cage

161. 3/35 the night before his death he had been singing wonderfully, 14/35 the fairy-music has stopped, 24/35 in the hush of the night, the charm of the delicate voice, 33/35 he sang on to the very end

162. 4/7 cursed with the gift of song. There are human crickets who must eat their own hearts to sing
