Il est des lieux qui tirent l'�me de sa l�thargie, des lieux envelopp�s, baign�s de myst�re, �lus de toute �ternit� pour �tre le si�ge de l'�motion religieuse. L'�troite prairie de Lourdes, entre un rocher et son gave rapide; la plage m�lancolique d'o� les Saintes-Maries nous orientent vers la Sainte-Baume; l'abrupt rocher de la Sainte-Victoire tout baign� d'horreur dantesque, quand on l'aborde par le vallon aux terres sanglantes; l'h�ro�que V�zelay, en Bourgogne; le Puy-de-D�me; les grottes des Eyzies, o� l'on r�v�re les premi�res traces de l'humanit�; la lande de Carnac, qui parmi les bruy�res et les ajoncs dresse ses pierres inexpliqu�es; la for�t de Broc�liande, pleine de rumeur et de feux follets, o� Merlin par les jours d'orage g�mit encore dans sa fontaine; Alise-Sainte-Reine et le mont Auxois, promontoire sous une pluie presque constante, autel o� les Gaulois moururent aux pieds de leurs dieux; le mont Saint-Michel, qui surgit comme un miracle des sables mouvants; la noire for�t des Ardennes, tout inqui�tude et myst�re, d'o� le g�nie tira, du milieu des b�tes et des f�es, ses fictions les plus a�riennes; Domremy enfin, qui porte encore sur sa colline son Bois Chenu, ses trois fontaines, sa chapelle de Bermont, et pr�s de l'�glise la maison de Jeanne. Ce sont les temples du plein air. Ici nous �prouvons, soudain, le besoin de briser de ch�tives entraves pour nous �panouir � plus de lumi�re. Une �motion nous soul�ve; notre �nergie se d�ploie toute, et sur deux ailes de pri�re et de po�sie s'�lance � de grandes affirmations.
