The jersey was shiny with wear. "You darling old things," she muttered as her arms slipped down the sleeves. The door of the next room opened quietly and she heard Sarah and Eve go decorously downstairs.
He hesitated a moment or two, then quickly rescaling the wall, dropped into the lane outside, followed it to the gateway of the casa, and entered the patio as Dona Isabel decorously advanced from a darkened passage to the corridor. Although the hour of siesta had passed, her sister, Miss Chubb, the Alcalde, and Mrs. Brimmer were still lounging here on sofas and hammocks.
