He
watched
her
;
he
sought
opportunities
of
doing
her
little
services
,
and
presently
he
found
that
she
observed
him
.
Once
at
a
rest-day
gathering
they
sat
side
by
side
in
the
dim
starlight
,
and
the
music
was
sweet
.
His
hand
came
upon
hers
and
he
dared
to
clasp
it
.
Then
very
tenderly
she
returned
his
pressure
.
And
one
day
,
as
they
were
at
their
meal
in
the
darkness
,
he
felt
her
hand
very
softly
seeking
him
,
and
as
it
chanced
the
fire
leapt
then
and
he
saw
the
tenderness
of
her
face
.
He
sought
to
speak
to
her
.
He
went
to
her
one
day
when
she
was
sitting
in
the
summer
moonlight
spinning
.
The
light
made
her
a
thing
of
silver
and
mystery
.
He
sat
down
at
her
feet
and
told
her
he
loved
her
,
and
told
her
how
beautiful
she
seemed
to
him
.
He
had
a
lover
's
voice
,
he
spoke
with
a
tender
reverence
that
came
near
to
awe
,
and
she
had
never
before
been
touched
by
adoration
.
She
made
him
no
definite
answer
,
but
it
was
clear
his
words
pleased
her
.
After
that
he
talked
to
her
whenever
he
could
take
an
opportunity
.
The
valley
became
the
world
for
him
,
and
the
world
beyond
the
mountains
where
men
lived
in
sunlight
seemed
no
more
than
a
fairy
tale
he
would
some
day
pour
into
her
ears
.
Very
tentatively
and
timidly
he
spoke
to
her
of
sight
.
Sight
seemed
to
her
the
most
poetical
of
fancies
,
and
she
listened
to
his
description
of
the
stars
and
the
mountains
and
her
own
sweet
white-lit
beauty
as
though
it
was
a
guilty
indulgence
.
She
did
not
believe
,
she
could
only
half
understand
,
but
she
was
mysteriously
delighted
,
and
it
seemed
to
him
that
she
completely
understood
.
His
love
lost
its
awe
and
took
courage
.
Presently
he
was
for
demanding
her
of
Yacob
and
the
elders
in
marriage
,
but
she
became
fearful
and
delayed
.
And
it
was
one
of
her
elder
sisters
who
first
told
Yacob
that
Medina-saroti
and
Nunez
were
in
love
.
There
was
from
the
first
very
great
opposition
to
the
marriage
of
Nunez
and
Medina-saroti
;
not
so
much
because
they
valued
her
as
because
they
held
him
as
a
being
apart
,
an
idiot
,
incompetent
thing
below
the
permissible
level
of
a
man
.
Her
sisters
opposed
it
bitterly
as
bringing
discredit
on
them
all
;
and
old
Yacob
,
though
he
had
formed
a
sort
of
liking
for
his
clumsy
,
obedient
serf
,
shook
his
head
and
said
the
thing
could
not
be
.
The
young
men
were
all
angry
at
the
idea
of
corrupting
the
race
,
and
one
went
so
far
as
to
revile
and
strike
Nunez
.
He
struck
back
.
Then
for
the
first
time
he
found
an
advantage
in
seeing
,
even
by
twilight
,
and
after
that
fight
was
over
no
one
was
disposed
to
raise
a
hand
against
him
.
But
they
still
found
his
marriage
impossible
.
Old
Yacob
had
a
tenderness
for
his
last
little
daughter
,
and
was
grieved
to
have
her
weep
upon
his
shoulder
.
"
You
see
,
my
dear
,
he
's
an
idiot
.
He
has
delusions
;
he
ca
n't
do
anything
right
.
"
