It seemed to her that if she could lay her two hands upon that neck that all its strength and vigor would flow out to her. She was shocked by this thought. It seemed to reveal to her an undreamed depravity in her nature. Besides, strength to her was a gross and brutish thing. Her ideal of masculine beauty had always been slender gracefulness.

Usually, however, it emerges in the face of a bluff or on the side of a hill; and the opening becomes "the mouth of a cave."
