without haste, and on the landing in the diffused light from the
ground-glass skylight there appeared, rigid, like an implacable and
obscure fate, the awful Therese--waiting for her sister. The heavy
ends of a big black shawl thrown over her head hung massively in
biblical folds. With a faint cry of dismay Dona Rita stopped just
within my room.
