exhaustion, yet he would not let her near Marina, his
embrace tightening. The only departure which he made from the

induced to wear. And he departed, just as Wood, who had become
alarmed by Thames's long absence, made his appearance with a blunderbuss in
his hand. It comes over the mountains, Anna, pink darkening into orange red,
everywhere a wonderful cloud sea, scintillating with colour. It was impossible. She wrenched her head away from his grip and got her arm between his
chest and hers. And they could
talk, they found; and never once, it seemed, did their meaning and intention
hitch. Inexplicably there flashed into vision the Chinese wedding procession in the
narrow, twisted streets of the city, that first day: the gorgeous palanquin, the tomtoms, the weird music, the ribald, jeering mob that trailed along behind. Darell's peculiar bent of mind was exemplified in a rusty
broadsword, a tall grenadier's cap, a musket without lock or ramrod, a belt and
cartouch-box, with other matters evincing a decided military taste. That terrible Young Person! she’s vanished. ‘You’re the most troublesome wretch I’ve ever encountered,’ he told her
bitterly.
