The
engineer
's
appreciative
laugh
died
away
down
the
stairs
,
where
the
Madonna
with
the
Child
on
her
arm
seemed
to
look
after
his
shaking
broad
back
from
her
shallow
niche
.
APROFOUND
stillness
reigned
in
the
Casa
Gould
.
The
master
of
the
house
,
walking
along
the
corredor
,
opened
the
door
of
his
room
,
and
saw
his
wife
sitting
in
a
big
armchair
--
his
own
smoking
armchair
--
thoughtful
,
contemplating
her
little
shoes
.
And
she
did
not
raise
her
eyes
when
he
walked
in
.
"
Tired
?
"
asked
Charles
Gould
.
"
A
little
,
"
said
Mrs.
Gould
.
Still
without
looking
up
,
she
added
with
feeling
,
"
There
is
an
awful
sense
of
unreality
about
all
this
.
"
Charles
Gould
,
before
the
long
table
strewn
with
papers
,
on
which
lay
a
hunting
crop
and
a
pair
of
spurs
,
stood
looking
at
his
wife
:
"
The
heat
and
dust
must
have
been
awful
this
afternoon
by
the
waterside
,
"
he
murmured
,
sympathetically
.
"
The
glare
on
the
water
must
have
been
simply
terrible
.
"
"
One
could
close
one
's
eyes
to
the
glare
,
"
said
Mrs.
Gould
.
"
But
,
my
dear
Charley
,
it
is
impossible
for
me
to
close
my
eyes
to
our
position
;
to
this
awful
...
"
She
raised
her
eyes
and
looked
at
her
husband
's
face
,
from
which
all
sign
of
sympathy
or
any
other
feeling
had
disappeared
.
"
Why
do
n't
you
tell
me
something
?
"
she
almost
wailed
.
"
I
thought
you
had
understood
me
perfectly
from
the
first
,
"
Charles
Gould
said
,
slowly
.
"
I
thought
we
had
said
all
there
was
to
say
a
long
time
ago
.
There
is
nothing
to
say
now
.
There
were
things
to
be
done
.
We
have
done
them
;
we
have
gone
on
doing
them
.
There
is
no
going
back
now
.
I
do
n't
suppose
that
,
even
from
the
first
,
there
was
really
any
possible
way
back
.
And
,
what
's
more
,
we
ca
n't
even
afford
to
stand
still
.
"
"
Ah
,
if
one
only
knew
how
far
you
mean
to
go
,
"
said
his
wife
.
inwardly
trembling
,
but
in
an
almost
playful
tone
.
