Ian Deacon swept aside.
"1IIss Lulu" he said. Il wanted you
TO hear about my trip mp the Amazon,
because ] knew how Interested you
are in travels
He talked, according to his lights,
about the Amazon. But the person
who most enjoyed the recital could
mot afterward have told two words
that be said. Lulp kept the position
which she had taken at nrst, and she
dare rot change. She saw the blood
IN the veins Of her hands and wanted
20 hide them. She wondered II she
might fold her arms. or have one hand
70 support her chin. gave II all up and
sat motionless. save for the rocking.
Then she forgot everything. For
the first time IN pears some one was
talking and looking not only At Ina
and Dwight and their guests, but At
her.
