'I thought perhaps you'd gone up the hill, she said, resting her arms on the wall by which he was standing. Then they kept silence, enjoying the sweetness of the hour. Differently, it is true; for Kirkwood's natural sensitiveness had been developed and refined by studies of which Jane had no conception.
