A shadow leaps over the fence. It is he; I. see him kissing his mother, questioning her, taking her arm, trying to pull her along. She resists laughingly. Ah! he loves me stUl. He looks very weU in a short jacket and cap, his legs gaitered ]ik.e an Alpine climber. He seemed to me taUer than at Paris. He comes, positively, by the central path, between the old rose-trees, on the arm of Madame Morand. He keeps his eyes fastened on the window, where I no longer am. I have run to the door and I have... opened it. . . . Then, Mamma, we stood looking at each other, I on the threshold, they in the path, motionless, struck with joy. I thought that I was going to faint; I made a great effort; I said: "'Monsieur, I love you always, but you must not sacrifice your career for me, you must not regret' . . . "He dropped Madame Morand's arm, he came up to me, and, with my permission, he kissed me and with his whole heart, I assure you. Then he said: "'You are my betrothed, now; come, let us talk of the future.' "We passed a part of the morning in the house, all three of us, and the rest, we two, in the coun- try around Haut-Clos.
