〃I　went　to　Nottingham；〃　he　said　mildly。

〃To　your　mother？〃　she　asked；　in　a　flash　of　contempt。

〃No……I　didnt　go　home。〃

〃Who　did　you　go　to　see？〃

〃I　went　to　see　nobody。〃

〃Then　why　did　you　go　to　Nottingham？〃

〃I　went　because　I　wanted　to　go。〃

He　was　getting　angry　that　she　again　rebuffed　him　when　he　was

so　clear　and　shining。

〃And　who　did　you　see？〃

〃I　saw　nobody。〃

〃Nobody？〃

〃No……who　should　I　see？〃

beat　with　wild　passion；　wild　raging　passion。　But　she　resisted　as
