Can you not see them lying there together? I have dreamed it." She silently pointed at the two dead dogs. "Look again!" he cried in a loud voice. "What do you see?" She made no reply. "Answer!" he said sharply.

He paused, and now there might have been seen a shining moisture on his forehead, and his words came menacingly from between his teeth, while the room became breathlessly still, save that in the silence a sleeping dog sighed heavily: "Shon McGann," he added, "you are living with my wife."

The University frowned down upon the graveyard; in its turn the graveyard frowned menacingly upon the town. A snow-bird peeped a "good-morning" to its mate in the Rectory eaves.
