The Journal of a Disappointed Man
·
W. N. P. Barbellion
110
I
wish
I
were
permanently
and
irresistibly
enamoured.
I
want
a
bouleversement....
October
13.
Went
to
see
a
Harley
Street
oculist
about
the
sight
of
one
eye,
which
has
caused
a
lot
of
trouble
and
worry
of
late
and
continuously
haunted
me
with
the
possibility
of
blindness.
At
times,
I
see
men
as
trees
walking
and
print
becomes
hopelessly
blurred.
The
Specialist
however
is
reassuring.
The
eye
is
healthy
--no
neuritis--but
the
adjustment
muscles
have
been
thrown
out
of
gear
by
the
nervous
troubles
of
last
spring.
Was
ever
man
more
sorely
tempted?
Here
am
I
lonely
and
uncomfortable
in
diggings
with
a
heart
like
nascent
oxygen....
Shall
I?
Yes,
but....
And
I
have
neither
health
nor
wealth.
October
22.
The
British
Museum
Reading
Room
I
saw
it
for
the
first
time
to-day!
Gadzooks!!
This
is
the
only
fit
ejaculation
to
express
my
amazement!
It's
a
pagan
temple
with
the
Gods
in
the
middle
and
all
around,
various
obscure
dark
figures
prostrating
themselves
in
worship.
