As the life ebbs out of his body, Cromwell is described in the following way: “He has vanished; he is the slippery stones underfoot, he is the last faint ripple in the wake of himself. He feels for an opening, blinded, looking for a door: tracking the light along the wall.”
The Mirror and the Light, pg. 753
