one to talk tonothing whatever to do. The whole world stretched before him. The moor rising and falling; the sky meeting the moor; green and blue, green and blue, for ever and ever.¡± In the half light, they could see that Mrs. Ivimey was leaning over the balcony, with her chin propped on her hands, as if she were looking out over the moors from the top of a tower. ¡°Nothing but moor and sky, moor and sky, for ever and ever,¡± she murmured. Then she made a movement, as if she swung something into position. ¡°But what did the earth look like through the telescope¡± she asked. She made another quick little movement with her fingers as if she were twirling something. ¡°He focussed it,¡± she said. ¡°He focussed it upon the earth. He focussed it upon a dark mass of wood upon the horizon. He focussed it so that he could see . . . each tree . . . each tree separate . . . and the birds . . . rising and falling . . . and a stem of smoke . . . there . . . in the midst of the trees. . . . And then . . . lower . . . lower . . .

He came round the corner. He seized her in his arms! They kissed . . . they kissed.¡± Mrs. Ivimey opened her arms and closed them as if she were kissing someone. ¡°It was the first time he had seen a man kiss a woman ¡ª in his telescope ¡ª miles and miles away across the moors!¡± She thrust something from her ¡ª the telescope presumably. She sat upright. ¡°So he ran down the stairs. He ran through the fields. He ran down lanes, out upon the high road, through woods. He ran for miles and miles, and just when the stars were showing above the trees he reached the house . . . covered with dust, streaming with sweat. . . . .¡± She stopped, as if she saw him. ¡°And then, and then . . . what did he do then What did he say And the girl . . . ¡± they pressed her. A shaft of light fell upon Mrs. Ivimey as if someone had focussed the lens of a telescope upon her. (It was the air force, looking for enemy air craft.) She had risen. She had something blue on her head. She had raised her hand, as if she stood in a doorway, amazed. ¡°Oh the girl. . . . She was my ¡ª¡± she hesitated, as if she we.

Chapter 16 The Legacy ¡°For Sissy Miller.¡± Gilbert Clandon, taking up the pearl brooch that lay among a litter of rings and brooches on a little table in his wife¡¯s drawing-room, read the inscription: ¡°For Sissy Miller, with my love.¡± It was like Angela to have remembered even Sissy Miller, her secretary. Yet how strange it was, Gilbert Clandon thought once more, that she had left everything in such order ¡ª a little gift of some sort for every one of her friends.
