"Ask Sletchna Axenia to come to me," she said to the servant who opened the door in the distance, out of sight behind the forest of plants. Amid less unusual surroundings the Wanderer would have rejected with contempt the last remnants of his belief in the identity of Unorna's companion, with Beatrice.
I have come back to tell you so. You may as well know it." Unorna's expression grew cold, as she saw that he abandoned the strain of reproach and spoke once more of his love for her. "Yes, I see what you mean," he said, very quietly. "You mean to show me by your face that you give me no hope. I should have known that by other things I have seen here. God knows, I have seen enough!
I loved this woman, but she would not love me. That is all. And what of it, and what then? Look at her, and look at me the beginning and the end." In a manner familiar to Orientals the unhappy man laid one finger upon his own breast, and with the other hand pointed at Unorna's fair young face.
The Wanderer shook his head rather sadly. "He seems very ill," he said, in a tone of compassion. But Unorna was pitiless. She knew what her companion could not know, namely, that Kafka must have followed them through the streets to the cemetery and must have overheard Unorna's passionate appeal and must have seen and understood the means she was using to win the Wanderer's love.
The body of Simon Abeles was exhumed and rests in the Teyn Kirche, in the chapel on the left of the high altar. The slight extension of certain scenes not fully described in the Latin volume will be pardoned in a work of fiction. Unorna's voice sank from the tone of anger to a lower pitch.
He looked back with horror and amazement upon the emptiness of his past life, wondering how such an existence as he had led, or fancied he had led, could have been possible. But there was scant time for reflection upon the problem of his own mission in the world as he hastened towards Unorna's house. His present mission was clear enough and simple enough, though by no means easy of accomplishment.
If you will not go to him, I will bring him to you " Beatrice turned away and walked across the room. "Loved her," she said aloud, "and talked to her of love, and kissed " She stopped suddenly. Then she came back again with swift steps and grasped Unorna's arm fiercely. "Tell me more still this dream has lasted long you are man and wife!" "We might have been.
I command you to answer me. Is it he?" "You must tell me more before I can answer." The words came in a feeble piping voice, strangely out of keeping with the colossal frame and imposing features. Unorna's face was clouded, and the ready gleam of anger flashed in her eyes as it ever did at the smallest opposition to her will. "Can you not see him?" she asked impatiently.
He hesitated as to what he should do, unwilling to return to Unorna and acknowledge himself vanquished, yet finding it hard to resist his desire to try every means, no matter how little reasonable, how evidently useless, how puerile and revolting to his sounder sense. The street behind him led directly towards Unorna's house.
He gazed at the plants, and his glance wandered from one to the other, as though he did not see them, being lost in meditation. The voice had been calm and clear as ever, but it was the first time he had ever said so much, and Unorna's heart stood still, half fire and half ice. She could not speak. "You are very much to me," he said again, at last.
