Near the couch, raised about two spans, is a fireplace.

There are no windows, but a ray of sunshine, falling through the chimney, strikes--like a celestial flame--on the stones of the hearth where there is no trace of ashes.

A brown blanket is spread over the couch.

A cross is roughly carved on the face of the rock, near the entrance.

In one corner appear--the only luxuries--a large pail full of water, a green basin, a bottle, and a glass.
