I half extended my hand, but a higher courtesy constrained me to draw it backagain and turn my face to the sea. An instantafterwards he was up and hurrying down the path. A woman was coming towards us. She was quiteclose before he had seen her--thirty yards at theutmost. I know not if she had ever been as hedescribed her, or whether it was but some ideal whichhe carried in his brain. The person upon whom Ilooked was tall, it is true, but she was thick andshapeless, with a ruddy, full-blown face..., and askirt grotesquely gathered up. There was a greenribbon in her hat, which jarred upon my eyes, and herblouse-like bodice was full and clumsy. And this wasthe lovely girl, the ever youthful! My heart sank asI thought how little such a woman might appreciatehim, how unworthy she might be of his love. She came up the path in her solid way, while hestaggered along to meet her. Then, as they cametogether, looking discreetly out of the furthestcorner of my eye, I saw that he put out both hishands, while she, shrinking from a public caress, took one of them in hers and shook it.
