In the dungeon, you know, every bit of light is excluded, and the prisoner has nothing to do except to sit on the stone tloor and think. The loneliness and silence are something terrible even there. The passage of time is not noted, and the prisoner has no idea whether it is day or night. The monotony has the eflect of"putting the attention on a rack, hi which it is kept
at a painful suspense through 10, 20 and sometimes . or 48 hours. The intellectual machine works with an unceasing action, and passes through itself thoughts, ideas and fancies which have already liecome monotonous and wearisome. The silence is only broken by the splashing of an occasional drop of water, for the place is too damp to be wholesome.
