Why the devil should I bebothered? I don't want it anyhow. She comes in as I fume, and I forgeteverything at her entrance. I push the armchair towards the table, andshe sinks quietly into it, pulling the tray nearer. She has a weddingring on, but somehow it never strikes me to wonder if she is married ora widow or who she may be. I am content to watch her break her biscuits. She has the prettiest hands, and a trick of separating her last fingerswhen she takes hold of anything. They remind me of... white orchids I sawsomewhere. She led me to talk; about Africa, I think. I liked to watchher eyes glow deeply in the shadow and then catch light as she bentforward to say something in her quick responsive way.

'Long ago?' I echo incredulously, 'surely not?' 'Ah, but yes, you haven't seen me in the daylight, ' with a soft littlelaugh. 'Do you know what the gipsies say? "Never judge a woman or aribbon by candle-light. " They might have said moonlight equally well.
