All the poetry of this most ancient of religions centres in the figure of its little Vestal, child-bride of ghosts, as she flutters, like some wonderful white-and-crimson butterfly, before the shrine of the Invisible.
Or here! this black-and-crimson thing drifting round the bend in mid-current and without a sign of life aboard or about it, was this not a toy or sham, but one more veritable ship in veritable flames? And beyond and following it, helpless as a drift-log, was that lifeless white-and-crimson thing a burning passenger steamer and that behind it another?
The way the light shone on the housekeeper's hair, bright brown and plastered flatly down on either side of her bright white-and-crimson face, and the curves of her chocolate and white striped cotton bodice, reminded her sharply of something she had seen once, something that had charmed her... it was in the hair against the hard white of the forehead and the flat broad cheeks with the hard, clear crimson colouring nearly covering them... something in the way she sat, standing out against the others.... Judy on her left hand with almost the same colouring looked small and gentle and refined.
