that moment of companioned ecstasy
that had brought her pack, but the
remembered peace of it. Peace-that
was what she had wanted; when she
determined to escape from all that
was not peace, all that was disillu-
sion, a sudden vision had come to
her of the little white house under
the elm, the red roof and the smoke
wavering up from its chimney, and
the strong, smiling woman who had
given them milk to drink. Peace

The day the letter came she went out
after supper and sat on the doorstep.
A young moon had left the night TO the
radiance of cleaning stars: the tender
sweetness of the air was pierced by the
song of the little frogs caroling their
return to life and the sadness of past
summers and the joy Of the summer 10
come; the fragrance Of the drying fields
was like an incense. A world browsing,
yet stirring to resurrection.
