'
Not
here
,
'
said
Nancy
hurriedly
,
'
I
am
afraid
to
speak
to
you
here
.
Come
away
--
out
of
the
public
road
--
down
the
steps
yonder
!
'
As
she
uttered
these
words
,
and
indicated
,
with
her
hand
,
the
direction
in
which
she
wished
them
to
proceed
,
the
countryman
looked
round
,
and
roughly
asking
what
they
took
up
the
whole
pavement
for
,
passed
on
.
The
steps
to
which
the
girl
had
pointed
,
were
those
which
,
on
the
Surrey
bank
,
and
on
the
same
side
of
the
bridge
as
Saint
Saviour
's
Church
,
form
a
landing-stairs
from
the
river
.
To
this
spot
,
the
man
bearing
the
appearance
of
a
countryman
,
hastened
unobserved
;
and
after
a
moment
's
survey
of
the
place
,
he
began
to
descend
.

These
stairs
are
a
part
of
the
bridge
;
they
consist
of
three
flights
.
Just
below
the
end
of
the
second
,
going
down
,
the
stone
wall
on
the
left
terminates
in
an
ornamental
pilaster
facing
towards
the
Thames
.
At
this
point
the
lower
steps
widen
:
so
that
a
person
turning
that
angle
of
the
wall
,
is
necessarily
unseen
by
any
others
on
the
stairs
who
chance
to
be
above
him
,
if
only
a
step
.
The
countryman
looked
hastily
round
,
when
he
reached
this
point
;
and
as
there
seemed
no
better
place
of
concealment
,
and
,
the
tide
being
out
,
there
was
plenty
of
room
,
he
slipped
aside
,
with
his
back
to
the
pilaster
,
and
there
waited
:
pretty
certain
that
they
would
come
no
lower
,
and
that
even
if
he
could
not
hear
what
was
said
,
he
could
follow
them
again
,
with
safety
.
So
tardily
stole
the
time
in
this
lonely
place
,
and
so
eager
was
the
spy
to
penetrate
the
motives
of
an
interview
so
different
from
what
he
had
been
led
to
expect
,
that
he
more
than
once
gave
the
matter
up
for
lost
,
and
persuaded
himself
,
either
that
they
had
stopped
far
above
,
or
had
resorted
to
some
entirely
different
spot
to
hold
their
mysterious
conversation
.
He
was
on
the
point
of
emerging
from
his
hiding-place
,
and
regaining
the
road
above
,
when
he
heard
the
sound
of
footsteps
,
and
directly
afterwards
of
voices
almost
close
at
his
ear
.
He
drew
himself
straight
upright
against
the
wall
,
and
,
scarcely
breathing
,
listened
attentively
.

'
This
is
far
enough
,
'
said
a
voice
,
which
was
evidently
that
of
the
gentleman
.
'
I
will
not
suffer
the
young
lady
to
go
any
farther
.
Many
people
would
have
distrusted
you
too
much
to
have
come
even
so
far
,
but
you
see
I
am
willing
to
humour
you
.
'
'
To
humour
me
!
'
cried
the
voice
of
the
girl
whom
he
had
followed
.
'
You
're
considerate
,
indeed
,
sir
.
To
humour
me
!
Well
,
well
,
it
's
no
matter
.
