The summer afternoon's heavy sunlight poured unobstructed through the unglazed holes that would someday be stone-mullioned windows of richly stained glass, and the crane with its ropes and pullies still straddled the tomb chest from yesterday when the slab that sealed it shut had been lowered into place for final carving. But work was paused just now, the workmen standing silently while Lady Alice questioned the master sculptor on the loss of Simon Grene, his best journeyman, here yesterday and ...now, with no warning, "Just gone?" she demanded. Master Atwell uncomfortably agreed to what he had already admitted. "And my woman Elyn with him," Lady Alice complained. The youngest of her waiting women. "Which is all very well for them, but what about my angels? Who's going to finish them?" That was the sorest point in the matter, Frevisse thought, standing a little aside, listening to her cousin's indignation. Come from her nunnery on visit, she had quickly seen that Lady Alice's present interest was all for the making of her tomb and most particularly for the angels carved around it, each standing elegantly in its own niche, their faces proud, serene, the curve of their wings matching the arches of the arcading above and below them.
