There were any number of trains by this funiculaire at every half-hour indeed and any one taking this route could reach either Lausanne or Ouchy after a very few minutes' journey up or down. To extend my investigation on that side was of obvious and pressing importance.
As after the Friday afternoon he had spent more or less in hiding in the terrace-room, his lady had judged it wiser for him not to come at all to Lucerne, and on the Saturday had met him at a quiet part of the shore of the lake, beyond the landing-steps of the funiculaire, and for a few short hours they had cruised about on the blue waters but her sweetest tenderness and ready wit had not been able entirely to eliminate the feeling of unrest which troubled them.
The green trees and the exquisite day seemed to mock him. Alone, alone with no prospect of seeing his Queen until the morrow, when at eleven he was to meet her at the landing-steps at the foot of the funiculaire. But that was to-morrow, and how could he get through to-day?
And the third led to an opening where he could see the descending funiculaire, and just as it sank out of view he caught sight of a black dress, almost hidden by a standing man's figure, whom he recognised as the elderly silver-haired servant. Paul had learnt a number of swear-words at Eton and Oxford. And he let the trees hear most of them then.
