"
It
lies
only
five
further
.
"
She
passed
five
more
.
"
But
it
is
five
further
.
"
She
passed
them
.
"
That
stone
bridge
is
the
end
of
my
journey
,
"
she
said
,
when
the
bridge
over
the
Froom
was
in
view
.
She
crawled
to
the
bridge
.
During
the
effort
each
breath
of
the
woman
went
into
the
air
as
if
never
to
return
again
.
"
Now
for
the
truth
of
the
matter
,
"
she
said
,
sitting
down
.
"
The
truth
is
,
that
I
have
less
than
half
a
mile
.
"
Self
-
beguilement
with
what
she
had
known
all
the
time
to
be
false
had
given
her
strength
to
come
over
half
a
mile
that
she
would
have
been
powerless
to
face
in
the
lump
.
The
artifice
showed
that
the
woman
,
by
some
mysterious
intuition
,
had
grasped
the
paradoxical
truth
that
blindness
may
operate
more
vigorously
than
prescience
,
and
the
short
-
sighted
effect
more
than
the
far
-
seeing
;
that
limitation
,
and
not
comprehensiveness
,
is
needed
for
striking
a
blow
.
The
half
-
mile
stood
now
before
the
sick
and
weary
woman
like
a
stolid
Juggernaut
.
It
was
an
impassive
King
of
her
world
.
The
road
here
ran
across
Durnover
Moor
,
open
to
the
road
on
either
side
.
She
surveyed
the
wide
space
,
the
lights
,
herself
,
sighed
,
and
lay
down
against
a
guard
-
stone
of
the
bridge
.
Never
was
ingenuity
exercised
so
sorely
as
the
traveller
here
exercised
hers
.
Every
conceivable
aid
,
method
,
stratagem
,
mechanism
,
by
which
these
last
desperate
eight
hundred
yards
could
be
overpassed
by
a
human
being
unperceived
,
was
revolved
in
her
busy
brain
,
and
dismissed
as
impracticable
.
She
thought
of
sticks
,
wheels
,
crawling
—
she
even
thought
of
rolling
.
But
the
exertion
demanded
by
either
of
these
latter
two
was
greater
than
to
walk
erect
.
The
faculty
of
contrivance
was
worn
out
.
Hopelessness
had
come
at
last
.
"
No
further
!
"
she
whispered
,
and
closed
her
eyes
.
