But
the
news
of
the
Cardinal
's
death
drove
all
thought
of
Justine
away
.
Ten
minutes
later
he
was
behind
the
wheel
of
a
Mercedes
280
SL
,
heading
for
the
autobahn
.
The
poor
old
man
Vittorio
would
be
so
alone
,
and
his
burden
was
heavy
at
the
best
of
times
.
Quicker
to
drive
;
by
the
time
he
fiddled
around
waiting
for
a
flight
,
got
to
and
from
airports
,
he
could
be
at
the
Vatican
.
And
it
was
something
positive
to
do
,
something
he
could
control
himself
,
always
an
important
consideration
to
a
man
like
him
.
From
Cardinal
Vittorio
he
learned
the
whole
story
,
too
shocked
at
first
to
wonder
why
Justine
had
n't
thought
to
contact
him
.
"
He
came
to
me
and
asked
me
,
did
I
know
Dane
was
his
son
?
"
the
gentle
voice
said
,
while
the
gentle
hands
smoothed
the
blue-grey
back
of
Natasha
.
"
And
you
said
?
"
"
I
said
I
had
guessed
.
I
could
not
tell
him
more
.
But
oh
,
his
face
!
His
face
!
I
wept
.
"
"
It
killed
him
,
of
course
.
The
last
time
I
saw
him
I
thought
he
was
n't
well
,
but
he
laughed
at
my
suggestion
that
he
see
a
doctor
.
"
"
It
is
as
God
wills
.
I
think
Ralph
de
Bricassart
was
one
of
the
most
tormented
men
I
have
ever
known
.
In
death
he
will
find
the
peace
he
could
not
find
here
in
this
life
.
"
"
The
boy
,
Vittorio
!
A
tragedy
.
"
"
Do
you
think
so
?
I
like
rather
to
think
of
it
as
beautiful
.
I
can
not
believe
Dane
found
death
anything
but
welcome
,
and
it
is
not
surprising
that
Our
Dear
Lord
could
not
wait
a
moment
longer
to
gather
Dane
unto
Himself
.
I
mourn
,
yes
,
not
for
the
boy
.
For
his
mother
,
who
must
suffer
so
much
!
And
for
his
sister
,
his
uncles
,
his
grandmother
.
No
,
I
do
not
mourn
for
him
.
Father
O'Neill
lived
in
almost
total
purity
of
mind
and
spirit
.
What
could
death
be
for
him
but
the
entrance
into
everlasting
life
?
For
the
rest
of
us
,
the
passage
is
not
so
easy
.
