Night Running

Nightwalks by Charles Dickens

Some years ago, a temporary inability to sleep ... caused me to walk about the streets all night, for a series of several nights... The month was March, and the weather damp, cloudy, and cold... the river had an awful look, the buildings on the banks were muffled in black shrouds, and the reflected lights seemed to originate deep in the water, as if the spectres of suicides were holding them to show where they went down. The wild moon and clouds were as restless as an evil conscience in a tumbled bed, and the very shadow of the immensity of London seemed to lie oppressively upon the river.
