At last he said: "I want to tell you. Of course, I must tell you. But may I ask a few questions first?" Lady Ingleby also gazed unseeingly into the darkness; but she leaned a little nearer to the broad shoulder beside her. "Ask me what you will," she said. "There is nothing, in my whole life, I would not tell you, Jim Airth."
It was Jack who broached another subject, asking her about some concerts she had gone to recently; but, turned from him again and looking out into the evening, her answers were so vague and chill, that presently, casting a glance half mournful and half alarmed upon her, he bade her good-by and left her. Imogen stood looking out unseeingly, a sense of indignation and of fear weighing upon her.
Castro, standing up unsteadily, growled, "We may do it yet! See, señor!" The blue gleam was much larger it flared smokily up towards the sky. I made out ghastly parallelograms of a ship's sails high above us, and at last many faces peering unseeingly over the rail in our direction. We all shouted together.
