She had gone very pale; he believed she was afraid. "Isn't there a droschke anywhere?" he said, and looked angrily round. "I really can't see you exposed to this ... this sort of thing, you know." Louise answered hurriedly. "No, no. And please go! I shall be all right. I'm sorry. I had enjoyed it so much. I will tell you another time, how much. Good night, and thank you.
Try to sleep. You are so pale." "Good-bye good-bye!" His hand rested on the door of the droschke. She laid hers on it, and clung to it as though she would never, let it go. Part III. ... dove il Sol tace. Frau Krause was ill pleased at his unlooked-for reappearance, and did not scruple to say so.
And he knew what had happened; it would not be necessary to explain. Oh, Maurice, Maurice! She knew his address, if she could but find the street. A droschke passed, and she tried to hail it; but she did not like to advance too far out of the shadow, on account of her bare head.
Maurice shook off the young clerk, who was murmuring unintelligible words of sympathy, and left the cemetery in the wake of the two Americans, for whom a droschke was in waiting to take them back to the town. "Waal, I'm sort o' relieved that wasn't MY funeral," he heard one of them say. He walked at full speed to restore his famished circulation.
Then I, too, dozed and did not awake till about five in the morning, when we ran into a great busy terminus as bright as midday. It was the easiest and most unsuspicious journey I ever made. The lieutenant stretched himself and smoothed his rumpled uniform. We carried our scanty luggage to a droschke, for there seemed to be no porters.
He sought refuge in an open droschke. He could then, too, enjoy the drive across the city. The Saxon capital sits capaciously like a comfortable old dowager fully dressed in stuffs of a richly dull color. Her thick skirts are spread about her with a contented dignity which does not interfere with her eating large sandwiches openly and vigorously at the opera.
She wheeled round, as if the insult had struck her; and for a moment faced him, with open lips. Then she thought better of it: she laughed derisively, with a wanton undertone, in order to hurt him. "You would at least have had me under your own eyes." As she spoke, she nodded to the old woman who opened the door to say that the droschke waited below.
Most that Berlin has to show can be seen better elsewhere, and we decided to be content with a drive through the town. The hotel porter introduced us to a droschke driver, under whose guidance, so he assured us, we should see everything worth seeing in the shortest possible time. The man himself, who called for us at nine o'clock in the morning, was all that could be desired.
With her hand in his, he said what he could to comfort her; for her face was tragic. "We will come again, darling. It is only AUF WIEDERSEHEN, remember!" But she shook her head. "We shall never be here again." Leipzig, at three o'clock on an August afternoon, lay baking in the sun. He put her in a covered droschke, himself carrying the bags, for he could not find a porter. "At seven, then!
"Please fetch a droschke," Johanna said grimly, as Ephie's sobs showed no signs of abating; and when, after a lengthy search in the night, Maurice returned, she was standing in the same position, staring with drawn, unblinking eyes at the smoky lamp, which no one had thought of lowering. Ephie was still crying, and only Maurice might go near her.
