He stared straight up at me, unwinking, unrecognizing. Pressing against his side was a woman, young and gentle, and lovely lovely even through the mask that lay upon her face. And her wide eyes, like Throckmartin's, glowed with the lurking, unholy fires. She pressed against him closely; though the hordes kept up the faint churning, these two kept ever together, as though bound by unseen fetters.
It was no longer the spirit of Ida, knowing them by a spirit's intuition, which was before them, but the girl Ida Ludington, whose curious, unrecognizing glance testified to her ignorance of aught which the Hilton school-girl of forty years ago had not known.
Her husband sprang to her aid, tenderly supporting her, but as instantly she seemed to recover her strength, smiling upon him graciously, while she gently disengaged herself from his hold, leaving the little one with him, and gliding rapidly forward, looked around her with unrecognizing eyes.
"The matron" a sweet-faced young lady was bending tenderly over him, and a nurse sat at the bedside. The doctor stood waiting at the foot of the bed. Moses took his boy's hand. The matron silently stepped aside. Benjamin stared at him with wide, unrecognizing eyes. "Nu, how goes it, Benjamin?" cried Moses in Yiddish, with mock heartiness. "Thank you, old Four-Eyes. It's very good of you to come.
Then, the next morning, they might meet and pass, unrecognizing and unrecognized. But would the knot binding them to each other be any the less real, because neither knew to whom he was tied? Some day, in the midst of friends, in the brightest glare of the sunshine, the tone of a voice would strike them pale and cold. Somewhat after this fashion, perhaps, did Helwyse commune with himself.
"I have come up to pay you and your father a visit," said Frau Marianne, a little embarrassed, for the unrecognizing, inquiring glance showed her that Beate knew nothing of her. "Your father asked me to come and look you up some day." "My father ...?" said Beate slowly and thoughtfully. "How is your father?" The child answered with a short, hard monosyllable: "Well."
He read over the titles with a new sense of delight and admiration; and in the first glow of his astonishment he stepped quickly into the shop, with erect head and firm tread, and found himself face to face with his old school-fellow. The sight of his blank, unrecognizing gaze brought him back to the consciousness of the utter change in himself.
They seemed something alien in that moment; and they, gazing upon her white face and unrecognizing eyes, spoke in awed whispers. At the gate the crowd gathered and waited with deepest interest, with a sort of shuddering pleasure. It was all a strange, unusual, inthralling romance to them. The dazzling sunshine added to the wonder of it all. "Ed Brann done it." "How?" asked several.
Now, by her incarnation, while his eyes had gained their desire, his heart had lost its consolation. His condition of mind rapidly became desperate. He could not bear to be in Ida's presence. Her friendly, formal accent was unendurable to him. Their blank, unrecognizing expression, as they rested on him in mere kindliness, made her lovely eyes awful to him as a Gorgon's.
There was no warmth of encouragement, either in her tone of voice or the unrecognizing eye which she turned upon him without trace of sympathy. "Isn't that rather foolish?" he suggested. "You'll get wet through. How far are you going?" "Hammersmith." He had asked the question with such apparent inconsequence that the thought of denying him the information had not occurred to her.
