The only way to do it is to get him to come here again." "And I am to write to him?" Her tone proclaimed the idea preposterous. "It will come best from you, as it's you who have kept him out of the house. You must, please, put your own feelings aside, and simply do what I ask you." He rose and went to the writing-place, and prepared a place for her there. Anne said nothing.
From that day the thought of other things above, such as loose rocks, which might also have conceived an antipathy for the table, and might not be so considerate towards me as the fig-tree, weakened my attachment to my ideal writing-place, for the discovery of which I was indebted to the indefatigable tongues of the women of Roc-Amadour.
The corner of the room shown in the illustration is the most convenient writing-place. The desk is placed at right angles to the wall between the two windows. The small furnishings of the writing-desk repeat the queer blues and the rose-red of the chintz. A very comfortable stool with a cushion of old velvet is an added convenience. The chintz curtains at the windows hang in straight, full folds.
And so it came to pass that I forsook the place, and by climbing a little staircase cut in the rock, against which the house was built, reached a cavern far above the roof and found at last my ideal writing-place upon the ledge in front of it, where the mallow and the crane's-bill crept over a patch of turf. Here the voices of the noisy little world below were sufficiently toned down by distance.
