"
Mary
,
I
’
ve
never
seen
your
husband
so
gay
.
"
"
It
’
s
the
fortune
you
read
,
"
said
Mary
.
"
It
’
s
changed
him
overnight
.
"
What
a
frightening
thing
is
the
human
,
a
mass
of
gauges
and
dials
and
registers
,
and
we
can
read
only
a
few
and
those
perhaps
not
accurately
.
A
flare
of
searing
red
pain
formed
in
my
bowels
and
moved
upward
until
it
speared
and
tore
at
the
place
just
under
my
ribs
.
A
great
wind
roared
in
my
ears
and
drove
me
like
a
helpless
ship
,
dismasted
before
it
could
shorten
sail
.
I
tasted
bitter
salt
and
I
saw
a
pulsing
,
heaving
room
.
Every
warning
signal
screamed
danger
,
screamed
havoc
,
screamed
shock
.
It
caught
me
as
I
passed
behind
my
ladies
’
chairs
and
doubled
me
over
in
quaking
agony
,
and
just
as
suddenly
it
was
gone
.
I
straightened
up
and
moved
on
and
they
didn
’
t
even
know
it
had
happened
.
I
understand
how
people
once
believed
the
devil
could
take
possession
.
I
’
m
not
sure
I
don
’
t
believe
it
.
Possession
!
The
seething
birth
of
something
foreign
with
every
nerve
resisting
and
losing
the
fight
and
settling
back
beaten
to
make
peace
with
the
invader
.
Violation
—
that
’
s
the
word
,
if
you
can
think
of
the
sound
of
a
word
edged
with
blue
flame
like
a
blowtorch
.

My
dear
’
s
voice
came
through
.
"
It
doesn
’
t
really
harm
to
hear
nice
things
,
"
she
said
.
I
tried
my
voice
and
it
was
strong
and
good
.
"
A
little
hope
,
even
hopeless
hope
,
never
hurt
anybody
,
"
I
said
,
and
I
put
the
jug
away
in
its
cabinet
,
and
went
back
to
my
chair
and
drank
half
the
glass
of
ancient
,
fragrant
rum
and
sat
down
and
crossed
my
knees
and
locked
my
fingers
in
my
lap
.
"
I
don
’
t
understand
him
,
"
Mary
said
.
"
He
’
s
always
hated
fortune
-
telling
,
made
jokes
about
it
.
I
just
don
’
t
understand
.
"
My
nerve
ends
were
rustling
like
dry
,
windblown
winter
grass
and
my
laced
fingers
had
whitened
from
pressure
.

"
I
’
ll
try
to
explain
it
to
Mrs
.
Young
—
to
Margie
,
"
I
said
.
"
Mary
comes
from
a
noble
but
poor
Irish
family
.
"
"
We
weren
’
t
all
that
poor
.
"
"
Can
’
t
you
hear
it
in
her
speech
?
