by Marcel Proust (1871 - 1922)

Punto in Aria 2
Language: French (Français) 
Aussitôt je recou­vrais la vue et j’é­tais bien éton­né de trou­ver autour 
de moi une obscu­rité, douce et reposante pour mes yeux, 
mais peut-être plus encore pour mon esprit,
 à qui elle appa­rais­sait comme une chose sans cause, 
incom­préhen­si­ble, comme une chose vrai­ment obscure.
