" That was the end of the interview. Once again the door was slammed inthe little Madonna's face.
That night the man told his wife all about it. "So you see, " heconcluded, "there is nothing more I can do. " But she lay awake and puzzled and yearned long after he had fallenasleep. And once she rose and peeped into the room that used to be thenursery. It was a changed room now, for the child had grown up, andwhere once pigs and chickens and huntsmen had jostled in happy, farmyarddisorder upon th...e walls, now there were likenesses of Owen Nares andHenry Ainley, obligingly autographed.
But for her the spirit prevailed, the kindly bars still ribbed thewindows and the sense of sleeping children still haunted the air.
And she it was who told the man what he must do; and although it scaredhim a great deal he agreed, for in the end all good husbands obey theirwives.
It felt very eerie to be alone in the National Gallery in the dead ofthe night with a tiny electric lamp in one's buttonhole and a spongeof alcohol and turpentine in one's hand.
