Echoes

HERMAN MELVILLE'S PIERRE (first published at the end of July 1852):

Not his refined, courtly, loving, equable mother, Pierre felt, could unreservedly, and like a heaven's heroine, meet the shock of his extraordinary emergency, and applaud, to his heart's echo, a sublime resolve, whose execution should call down the astonishment and the jeers of the world.

"... does not that involve for thee unending misery? And my truthful soul would echo—Unending misery!"  --Pierre; Or, The Ambiguities

 Oh, Yillah, Yillah! All the woods repeat the sound, the wild, wild woods of my wild soul. Yillah! Yillah! cry the small strange voices in me, and evermore, and far and deep, they echo on. --Mardi: And a Voyage Thither - Volume 1

 "Amen! amen! amen!" cried echoes echoing echoes.  --Mardi: And a Voyage Thither - Volume 2
