'And I'm puzzled, I added, still looking at him as he walked over the grass, 'as to whether he's a little man who looks middle-sized, or a middle-sized man who looks little. 'He's a little big 'un, said Sinfi; 'about the height o' Rhona Bozzell's Tarno Rye. 'Altogether he puzzles me, Sinfi! 'He puzzled me same way at fust.
Sinfi was standing on a patch of that peculiar kind of black ash which burnt grass makes, busy with a fire, over which a tea-kettle was hanging from the usual iron kettle-prop.
'There ain't a-many Romany chals, she said, 'as du'st marry Sinfi Lovell, even supposing as Sinfi Lovell 'ud marry them, an' a Gorgio she'll never marry an' never can marry.
'Now I can follow her, said Sinfi; 'but you mustn't try to come along here. Wait till I come back. I suppose you've given her all the breakfiss. Give me a drop of brandy out o' your flask. I gave her some brandy and took a long draught of the burning liquor myself, for I was fainting. 'I shall go with you, I said.
Then Miss Wynne was laid on one couch, and Sinfi Lovell on the other; a screen was placed between the couches, and then the wonderful effect of the magnetism began to show itself. The transmission was entirely successful, and Miss Wynne awoke as from a trance, and I saw as it were the beautiful eyes change as the soul returned to them.
'You mean the Welsh dukkerin' gillie, said Sinfi, looking, with an expression that might have been either alarm or suspicion, into my face. 'Yes. 'You've been a-thinkin' all this while, brother, that I don't know why you asked me about Winnie's favourite places on Snowdon, and why you wanted me to take my crwth to the camp.
Then without saying another word Sinfi took up her crwth and moved towards the llyn. 'You'll soon come back, Sinfi? I said. 'We've got to see about that, she replied, still pale and trembling from the effects of that sudden upheaval of the passion of a Titaness.
When we reached a low door, Sinfi proposed that she should remain outside on the landing, but within ear-shot, as 'the sight o' both on us, all of a suddent, might make the poor body all of a dither if she was very ill. The girl then opened the door and went in. I heard the woman's voice say in answer to her, 'Friend? Who is it?
The moonlight on the cascade had exactly the same supernatural appearance that it has now falling upon these billows. Sinfi sings some of our Welsh songs, and accompanies herself on a peculiar obsolete Welsh instrument called a crwth, which she always carries with her. While we were listening to the cataract and what she called the Wynn wail, she began to sing the wild old air.
I knew that although true spiritual love, as thus understood, scarcely exists among Englishmen, and even among Englishwomen is so rare that the capacity for feeling it is a kind of genius, this genius was hers. Sooner or later I said to myself, "She will and must manifest herself!" I looked up from the book and saw both Sinfi and Pharaoh gazing at me.
