her body to incline. If It had dropped
in direction directly opposite to that
in which it actually did. she would
have fallen into the river; as II hap
pened. she fell against TrevOr's shoul-

was really asleep and then slipped his
arm around her and held her close.
He forgot his burns and bruises. his
fatigue and hunger; he looked back
with exultant pride upon the mael-
