I knew that no one could have entered that garden without Agathemer's knowledge. I could not conceive how Capito came to be there. He greeted me formally and asked permission to seat himself beside me. I gave it rather grudgingly. He asked after my health and I answered only less grudgingly. "I conjecture," he said, "that you are surprised to see me here?" "I am surprised," I said shortly.
Agathemer's idea was that, from where we reached the borders of Umbria, somewhere between Trebia and Nursia, we should keep as near as possible to the chine of the mountain-chain, using the roads, paths, tracks or trails highest up the slope of the mountains; avoiding being seen as much as possible, and, if we were seen, claiming to have lost our way through misunderstanding the directions given us by the last natives we had met.
After that, I lay and quaked till long past midnight. Then, I seemed to hear sounds which I could but interpret as heralding Agathemer's approach. In fact he soon spoke to me from close by and I heard the unmistakable blurred noise made by a soft and yet heavy pack deposited on the ground by my bed of leaves. "I've nearly everything I wanted," said Agathemer.
