Next
day
the
clothes
I
had
ordered
all
came
home
,
and
he
put
them
on
.
Whatever
he
put
on
,
became
him
less
(
it
dismally
seemed
to
me
)
than
what
he
had
worn
before
.
To
my
thinking
,
there
was
something
in
him
that
made
it
hopeless
to
attempt
to
disguise
him
.
The
more
I
dressed
him
and
the
better
I
dressed
him
,
the
more
he
looked
like
the
slouching
fugitive
on
the
marshes
.
This
effect
on
my
anxious
fancy
was
partly
referable
,
no
doubt
,
to
his
old
face
and
manner
growing
more
familiar
to
me
;
but
I
believe
too
that
he
dragged
one
of
his
legs
as
if
there
were
still
a
weight
of
iron
on
it
,
and
that
from
head
to
foot
there
was
Convict
in
the
very
grain
of
the
man
.
The
influences
of
his
solitary
hut
-
life
were
upon
him
besides
,
and
gave
him
a
savage
air
that
no
dress
could
tame
;
added
to
these
were
the
influences
of
his
subsequent
branded
life
among
men
,
and
,
crowning
all
,
his
consciousness
that
he
was
dodging
and
hiding
now
.
In
all
his
ways
of
sitting
and
standing
,
and
eating
and
drinking
—
of
brooding
about
in
a
high
-
shouldered
reluctant
style
—
of
taking
out
his
great
horn
-
handled
jackknife
and
wiping
it
on
his
legs
and
cutting
his
food
—
of
lifting
light
glasses
and
cups
to
his
lips
,
as
if
they
were
clumsy
pannikins
—
of
chopping
a
wedge
off
his
bread
,
and
soaking
up
with
it
the
last
fragments
of
gravy
round
and
round
his
plate
,
as
if
to
make
the
most
of
an
allowance
,
and
then
drying
his
finger
-
ends
on
it
,
and
then
swallowing
it
—
in
these
ways
and
a
thousand
other
small
nameless
instances
arising
every
minute
in
the
day
,
there
was
Prisoner
,
Felon
,
Bondsman
,
plain
as
plain
could
be
.
It
had
been
his
own
idea
to
wear
that
touch
of
powder
,
and
I
had
conceded
the
powder
after
overcoming
the
shorts
.
But
I
can
compare
the
effect
of
it
,
when
on
,
to
nothing
but
the
probable
effect
of
rouge
upon
the
dead
;
so
awful
was
the
manner
in
which
everything
in
him
that
it
was
most
desirable
to
repress
,
started
through
that
thin
layer
of
pretence
,
and
seemed
to
come
blazing
out
at
the
crown
of
his
head
.
It
was
abandoned
as
soon
as
tried
,
and
he
wore
his
grizzled
hair
cut
short
.
Words
cannot
tell
what
a
sense
I
had
,
at
the
same
time
,
of
the
dreadful
mystery
that
he
was
to
me
.
When
he
fell
asleep
of
an
evening
,
with
his
knotted
hands
clenching
the
sides
of
the
easy
-
chair
,
and
his
bald
head
tattooed
with
deep
wrinkles
falling
forward
on
his
breast
,
I
would
sit
and
look
at
him
,
wondering
what
he
had
done
,
and
loading
him
with
all
the
crimes
in
the
Calendar
,
until
the
impulse
was
powerful
on
me
to
start
up
and
fly
from
him
.
Every
hour
so
increased
my
abhorrence
of
him
,
that
I
even
think
I
might
have
yielded
to
this
impulse
in
the
first
agonies
of
being
so
haunted
,
notwithstanding
all
he
had
done
for
me
and
the
risk
he
ran
,
but
for
the
knowledge
that
Herbert
must
soon
come
back
.
Once
,
I
actually
did
start
out
of
bed
in
the
night
,
and
begin
to
dress
myself
in
my
worst
clothes
,
hurriedly
intending
to
leave
him
there
with
everything
else
I
possessed
,
and
enlist
for
India
as
a
private
soldier
.
I
doubt
if
a
ghost
could
have
been
more
terrible
to
me
,
up
in
those
lonely
rooms
in
the
long
evenings
and
long
nights
,
with
the
wind
and
the
rain
always
rushing
by
.
A
ghost
could
not
have
been
taken
and
hanged
on
my
account
,
and
the
consideration
that
he
could
be
,
and
the
dread
that
he
would
be
,
were
no
small
addition
to
my
horrors
.
When
he
was
not
asleep
,
or
playing
a
complicated
kind
of
Patience
with
a
ragged
pack
of
cards
of
his
own
—
a
game
that
I
never
saw
before
or
since
,
and
in
which
he
recorded
his
winnings
by
sticking
his
jackknife
into
the
table
—
when
he
was
not
engaged
in
either
of
these
pursuits
,
he
would
ask
me
to
read
to
him
—
"
Foreign
language
,
dear
boy
!
"
While
I
complied
,
he
,
not
comprehending
a
single
word
,
would
stand
before
the
fire
surveying
me
with
the
air
of
an
Exhibitor
,
and
I
would
see
him
,
between
the
fingers
of
the
hand
with
which
I
shaded
my
face
,
appealing
in
dumb
show
to
the
furniture
to
take
notice
of
my
proficiency
.
The
imaginary
student
pursued
by
the
misshapen
creature
he
had
impiously
made
,
was
not
more
wretched
than
I
,
pursued
by
the
creature
who
had
made
me
,
and
recoiling
from
him
with
a
stronger
repulsion
,
the
more
he
admired
me
and
the
fonder
he
was
of
me
.
This
is
written
of
,
I
am
sensible
,
as
if
it
had
lasted
a
year
.
It
lasted
about
five
days
.
Expecting
Herbert
all
the
time
,
I
dared
not
go
out
,
except
when
I
took
Provis
for
an
airing
after
dark
.
At
length
,
one
evening
when
dinner
was
over
and
I
had
dropped
into
a
slumber
quite
worn
out
—
for
my
nights
had
been
agitated
and
my
rest
broken
by
fearful
dreams
—
I
was
roused
by
the
welcome
footstep
on
the
staircase
.
Provis
,
who
had
been
asleep
too
,
staggered
up
at
the
noise
I
made
,
and
in
an
instant
I
saw
his
jackknife
shining
in
his
hand
.
"
Quiet
!
It
’
s
Herbert
!
"
I
said
;
and
Herbert
came
bursting
in
,
with
the
airy
freshness
of
six
hundred
miles
of
France
upon
him
"
Handel
,
my
dear
fellow
,
how
are
you
,
and
again
how
are
you
,
and
again
how
are
you
?
I
seem
to
have
been
gone
a
twelvemonth
!
Why
,
so
I
must
have
been
,
for
you
have
grown
quite
thin
and
pale
!
Handel
,
my
—
Halloa
!
I
beg
your
pardon
.
