She meant to be just as miserable as she pleased, since there was no observer to be deceived by sowing cheat-seed of merriment. "The battle's on now, to a finish," muttered Fran despondently, "yet here I sit, and here I scrooch."
Made strong by this, he endures the ordeal, the hazard of death, in the full splendour of the war, or at its sullen, dragging close, or in the battle's onset, or on patrol, the test of the dauntless, surrendering the sight of the sun, the coming of spring, and all that the arts and various wisdom of the centuries have added of charm or depth to nature's day.
All I now had to do was to lie here till daybreak and then get away if I could, deliver the despatch to Ned Ferry, and tell him ah! what? how much? Oh, my bemired soul, how much must I tell?
