midnight
Everywhere was blackness , and in it she was quite alone . The whole universe seemed to centre in her solitary soul . Still she felt no fear , only a kind of wonder at this infinite blank through which she was being borne for millions and millions of miles . Lights began to shine in the blackness like to those of passing ships upon a midnight sea . Now she was at rest , and the rest was long and sweet . Every fear and sad thought , every sensation of pain or discomfort left her . Peace flowed into her .
