Her crisp, plentiful hair, prema-

beauty. The mouth was small,
prim-the mouth of a fool. The
face was drawn, waxen-yellow.

were like those of vain and SIM

A single lantern hanging by a
cord from the low rafters con-

the place was such that one could
have cut the air with a knife.
Charcoal embers glowed Ike celes-

bricks. A pumpkin suspended
from the rafters showed large, wan
and vague.
Under the lantern a woman sat
on stool, holding the open hand
of a dark girl who knelt by her.
A fair girl pressed close. Before
the hearth a yellow cat crouched,
bumped up, its forepaws tucked in
under is broad white chest.
