Je sortis de ce désert de granit, de cette monacale nécropole avec un sentiment de satisfaction et d’allégement extraordinaire ; il me semblait que je renaissais à la vie et que je pourrais encore être jeune et me réjouir dans la création du bon Dieu, ce dont j’avais perdu tout espoir sous ces voûtes funèbres.
Ce que j’éprouvais était bien loin de la crainte : c’était une détente nerveuse profonde, comme lorsqu’on se baigne à une source, un inexplicable allégement.
