It is the realm of the mythical that accommodates this Island, however, not that of reality. It is here that Ieronim can reclaim the Edenic disposition.
"On many a warm night, he'd often lie bare upon the lake's shores, veiled by linen twill alone - thenceforth the nature, in its entirety, the low hum of pallid springs, the sea's dim moan, the grandeur of night would whelm him far within a sleep so very true and blithe, whither he'd embrace the life of a mere plant, freed of sorrow, freed of reverie, freed of desire."
Eliade, Mircea - The Island of Euthanasius
