For you are strangely morbid, and you are certainly guilty of reading your own doubts and fears into her unspoken and unguessed thoughts. Believe me, rather than the soul of her love seeming narrower than she hopes, the truth is she gives her love little thought at all. She is too busy and too sensible. Like me, she has not the time.
Above us huge slabs of stone, by some internal cataclysm hurled into fragments of unguessed tons of weight, seemed poised in air, about to topple down upon the plain below.
And the English "season" whirls lightly and vaporously, like blown egg-froth, over the mystic land of the old gods, the terrible land filled with dark secrets as yet unexplored, the land "shadowing with wings," as the Bible hath it, the land in which are buried tremendous histories as yet unguessed, profound enigmas of the supernatural, labyrinths of wonder, terror and mystery, all of which remain unrevealed to the giddy-pated, dancing, dining, gabbling throng of the fashionable travelling lunatics of the day, the people who "never think because it is too much trouble," people whose one idea is to journey from hotel to hotel and compare notes with their acquaintances afterwards as to which house provided them with the best-cooked food.
"Onion-soup! onion-soup! that is the answer to Hunne's riddle!" cried Rolf with a cry of victory, for he had really taken it seriously to heart, that Hunne's charade had been so long unguessed. The answer was right. Poor Hunne was quite depressed at this unexpected blow, and in a moment he said somewhat pitifully,

I spare you common curses. It was not long after this that the storm began to abate.

They are afraid to leave the known pleasures of their first youth for the unguessed satisfactions of maturity, so they try to stand still, hoping to keep their marriage, unchanged, in its first stage of promise.
His bitter look, at once of challenge and renunciation, set her trembling; she felt herself all weakness; and suddenly the woman in her dumbly, unguessed held out its arms. But he knew nothing of it. Rather her attitude seemed to him one of embarrassment even of hauteur. It was suddenly intolerable to him to seem to be asking for her pity.
In her fancy she endowed their conversations with the inexplicable attractiveness of masculinity, as masculinity is understood by women alone.

From this point of view he saw only pine forests. They covered the ridge below him like a soft green mantle thrown down in folds. They softened the more distant ranges. They billowed and eddied, and dropped into unguessed depths, and came bravely up to eyesight again far away. At last they seemed to change colour abruptly, and a brown haze overcast them through which glimmered a hint of yellow.
