THE INTRUDER

THE INTRUDER

BY

GABRIELE D'ANNUNZIO

TRANSLATED BY ARTHUR HORNBLOW

NEW YORK GEORGE H. RICHMOND 1898

THE TRIUMPH OF DEATH.

THE MAIDENS OF THE ROCKS.

In the original Italian, this novel is entitled "L'Innocente."

Should I go before the judge and say: "I have committed a crime. He would not be dead if I had not killed him. It is I, Tullio Hermil, who am his assassin. I premeditated that assassination in my house. I committed it with perfect lucidity of conscience, methodically, in all security. And I have gone on living in my house with my secret for a whole year, until to-day. To-day is the anniversary I deliver myself into your hands. Listen to me, judge me."

Can I go before the judge? Can I speak to him like that?

I cannot, and I will not. The justice of men does not reach as far as me. There is no tribunal on earth competent to judge me.
