Who told--your mother--the song?" "Oh, I don't know. I suppose she just made them up--she and God. .. . There! There it is again? Don't you hear it--don't you hear it, daddy?" "No, Dominique, it's only the kettle singing. " "A kettle isn't a voice. Daddy--" He paused a little, then went on, hesitatingly: "I saw a white swan fly through the door over yourshoulder when you came in to-night. " "No, no, Dominique, it was a flurry of snow blowing over my shoulder. " "But it looked at me with two shi...ning eyes. " "That was two stars shining through the door, my son. " "How could there be snow flying and stars shining, too, father?" "It was just drift-snow on a light wind, but the stars were shiningabove, Dominique. " The man's voice was anxious and unconvincing, his eyes had a hungry, haunted look. The legend of the White Swan had to do with the passing ofa human soul. The Swan had come in--would it go out alone? He touchedthe boy's hand--it was hot with fever; he felt the pulse--it ran high;he watched the face--it had a glowing light.
