Last night, I dreamt I went to Manderlay again. It seemed to me I stood by the iron gate leading to the drive, In front of the big iron gate in the driveway And for a while, I could not enter, for the way was barred to me. Then, like all dreamers, suddenly I was barred to me. I was possessed of a sudden with supernatural powers and passed like a spirit through the barrier before me. The drive wound away in front of me, the drive wound away in front of me Twisting and turning as it had always done. Twisting and turning as it had always done. But as I advanced, I was aware that a change had come upon it. Changed, Nature had come into her own again, It turned out that nature has returned to its original appearance And little by little had encroached upon the drive with long, tenacious fingers. and on would the poor thread that had once been our drive, the woods were always a threat to the drive and finally,there was Manderley. Manderley, secretive and silent. Time could nor mar the perfect symmetry of those walls. Time could nor mar the perfect symmetry of those walls. Moonlight can play odd tricks upon the fancy, I saw the silvery water and suddenly it seemed to me that light came from the windows. And then a cloud came upon the moon and hovered an instant like a dark hand before a face. The illusion went with it. I looked upon a desolate shell with no whisper of the past about its staring walls. We can never go back to Manderley again. For all of us That much is certain. Manderley is gone But sometimes in my dreams, I do go back to the strange days of my life The days which began for me in the South of France.Manderley, still as secluded and quiet as ever, Time could nor mar the perfect symmetry of those walls. the sea and suddenly it seemed to me like the mirror-like surface of the lake when the waves were calm that light came from the windows. And then a cloud came upon the moon And hovered an instant like a dark hand before a face. The dark cloud lingered for a while, like a black hand covering the face The illusion went with it. I looked upon a desolate shell no whisper of the past about its staring walls. We can never go back to Manderley again. That much is certain.
