When, after Carlos's sudden departure, I stood beside Clement's death-bed and saw from the look he gave me that he could still feel and understand, I told him that you had succeeded in your task and that all was well with us. But I was not able to tell him how you had succeeded or in what place the will had been found; and he died, unknowing.
"We'll be havin' t' beat up t' the Gate," said he, as he hauled in the grapnel. "With all the wind she can carry," added little Jacky, bending to lift the mast into the socket. In truth, yes as it seemed to my unknowing mind: she had all the wind she could carry.
There was nothing more natural than that she should have risen and girdled her waist, and lighted her taper, and found the silver goblet with "Ex dono pupillorum" on it, from which she had taken her milk and possets through all her childish years, and so gone blindly out to find her place at the bedside, a Sister of Charity without the cap and rosary; nay, unknowing whither her feet were leading her, and with wide blank eyes seeing nothing but the vision that beckoned her along.
H. discussed poetry and art with our kind hosts to her heart's content, and at a late hour we drove to the railroad, and returned to Paris. At last I have come into dreamland; into the lotus-eater's paradise; into the land where it is always afternoon. I am released from care; I am unknown, unknowing; I live in a house whose arrangements seem to me strange, old, and dreamy.
Poor child poor, young, unknowing creature, that, after all, was only twenty-two! She felt it, then, the strange mist that seemed to muffle his words and actions, to hold him back. And she had given him so much! He took her hands and drew her to him.
"Our friends'll lose five minutes penetrating that," he announced gleefully. It did not occur to him until later that every one of those woolly ewes was an unknowing servant of Hugo van Diest and that their presence in the road was the direct result of a wire dispatched to a quiet little man named Phillips who had been given the task of making the way into London difficult.

His brain already feels the descending horror his bones seem to crack and crumble in the mighty grasp of the iron walls! Unknowing what it is he does, he fumbles in his garment for some weapon of self-destruction. He clenches his throat in his convulsive gripe, as though he would strangle himself at once.
"Not so!" interposed Theos suddenly, unknowing why he spoke, but feeling inwardly compelled to take up Sah-luma's defence-"for the colors ARE immortal, and permeate the Universe, whether seen in the soap-bubble or the rainbow!
And that is why I am congratulated; and, oh, Sophy, though I have borne it as Heaven does enable us to bear what of ourselves we could not, and though one learns to shrug a patient shoulder under the obloquy which may be heaped on us by that crowd of mere strangers to us and to each other, which is called 'the WORLD, yet to slink out of sight from a friend, as one more to be shunned than a foe to take like a coward the lashings of Scorn to wince, one raw sore, from the kindness of Pity to feel that in life the sole end of each shift and contrivance is to slip the view hallo, into a grave without epitaph, by paths as stealthy and sly as the poor hunted fox, when his last chance and sole one is, by winding and doubling, to run under the earth; to know that it would be an ungrateful imposture to take chair at the board at the hearth, of the man who, unknowing your secret, says, 'Friend, be social'; accepting not a crust that one does not pay for, lest one feel a swindler to the kind fellow-creature whose equal we must not be! all this all this, Sophy, did at times chafe and gall more than I ought to have let it do, considering that there was ONE who saw it all, and would Don't cry, Sophy; it is all over now."
