And what, too, could her mother do without him; and why could he not write to the vicar instead of going to him?
It seemed to him that he knew those sounds, and that nobody else was playing but she his child! his darling.... He therefore fell upon his knees, clasped his hands to pray, and listened shivering, as in a fever.
