moist and self-conscious silence,
fearful of feasting his eyes on this
disturbing loveliness.

cency, he slipped back to his bunk
in the shed behind, and lay staring
into the darkness, picturing the

gloom, that in all this world of
womanly sweetness and beauty, no

the stocky catapult, as he launched
himself on the fleeing servant, or
the invidious seryility of the inn

he answered grayely:

stood out under the labor of his dis
