She gave me thetips of her rosy fingers. Her lips moved as if in speech, but no wordsreached me; she barely smiled. In a priceless vase near the open windowthey held their heads in high disdain--those four red poppies who hadgleefully chuckled and chatted together on the yesterday; but the fifthand silent poppy drooped upon her breast. I turned to go; she did not stayme; I stole to the door. "Take us away with you, " cried those fourgarrulous poppies; "we are willing to die, and at once if need... be, but nothere in her hateful presence. Take us away. " But the poppy on her breastonly drooped and drooped the more and said not a word.
I opened the door. The shadows had fled--the hall was a blaze of light. The music had ceased--only the noise of street below broke the silence. "If thus you let me go, I will not return again, " I said.
The woman did not speak, neither did she stir. But the poppy on her breastwith drooping head uplifted softly cried, "Go, quickly go, and--forget!" * * * * * I went down the broad stairway between a row of bright lights--a dazzlingmockery--I went out into the night.
