Ennui (In)
Clark Ashton Smith
- In the alcove whose curtains are cloth-of-gold, and
- whose pillars are fluted sapphire, reclines the
- emperor Chan, on his couch of ebony set with opals
- and rubies, and cushioned with the furs of unknown
- and gorgeous beasts. With implacable and weary
- gaze, from beneath unmoving lids that seem carven
- of purple-veined onyx, he stares at the crystal
- windows, giving upon the infinite fiery azures of a
- tropic sky and sea. Oppressive as nightmare, a
- formless nameless fatigue, heavier than any burden
- the slaves of the mines must bear, lies forever at his
- heart: all deliriums of Love and wine, the agonizing
- ecstasy of drugs, even the deepest and the faintest
- pulse of delight or pain-all are proven, all are futile,
- for the outworn but insatiate emperor. Even for a new
- grief, or a subtler pang than any felt before, he thinks,
- lying on his bed of ebony, that he would give the
- silver and vermilion of all his mines, with the crowded
- caskets, the carcanets and crowns that lie in his most
- immemorial treasure-vault, Vainly, with the verse of
- the more inventive poets, the fanciful purple-
- threaded fabrics of the subtlest looms, the unfamiliar
- gems and minerals from the uttermost land, the pallid
- leaves and blood-like petals of a rare and venomous
- blossom-vainly, with all these, and many stranger
- devices, wilder, more wonderful diversions, the
- slaves and sultanas have sought to alleviate the iron
- hours. One by one he has dismissed them with a
- weary gesture. And now, in the silence of the heavily
- curtained alcove, he lies alone, with the canker of
- ennui at his heart, like the undying mordant worm at
- the heart of the dead.

Uncountable nouns, conversely, do not usually take plural forms and cannot be paired directly with numbers in standard usage. Choose the one that is traditionally regarded as an uncountable noun in English:
