"He focussed it," she said. "He focussed it upon the earth. He focussed
it upon a dark mass of wood upon the horizon. He focussed it so that he
could see . . . each tree . . . each tree separate . . . and the birds
. . . rising and falling . . . and a stem of smoke . . . there . . . in
the midst of the trees. . . . And then . . . lower . . . lower . . . (she
lowered her eyes) . . . there was a house . . . a house among the trees
. . . a farm-house . . . every brick showed . . . and the tubs on either
side of the door . . . with flowers in them blue, pink, hydrangeas,
perhaps. . . ." She paused . . . "And then a girl came out of the house
. . . wearing something blue upon her head . . . and stood there . . .
feeding birds . . . pigeons . . . they came fluttering round her. . . .
And then . . . look. . . . A man. . . . A man
Cheap Newport 100s! He came round the corner.
He seized her in his arms
Wholesale Marlboro Cigarettes! They kissed . . . they kissed."
