 There’s a boat there just like those other days. A punt I always think of you in a punt, in your white dress, coming across from Monkey to take me over.

I wonder if I could any more.

It’s not a thing you can forget. I must take you down to the pond. It’s raining to-day you must come again. How is old Monkey Island? Do you ever go there now?

William’s Mr. Grey my husband.

They told me so.

I was a June bride.



(after a moment’s shadow across her face) : No.

Did you leave there when you married?



I’m sorry. I liked your father.

He was kind, was dad. He liked you, too, Chris but he never knew  about us. I’d never told him, I’ve never told anyone till now.
