'
After
a
long
interval
,
he
said
,
"
They
told
their
story
.
"
And
again
there
was
that
oppressive
silence
.
"
Then
only
I
knew
what
it
was
I
had
made
up
my
mind
to
,
"
he
added
.
372
"'
You
said
nothing
,
"
I
whispered
.
373
"'
What
could
I
say
?
"
he
asked
,
in
the
same
low
tone
...
"
Shock
slight
.
Stopped
the
ship
.
Ascertained
the
damage
.
Took
measures
to
get
the
boats
out
without
creating
a
panic
.
As
the
first
boat
was
lowered
ship
went
down
in
a
squall
.
Sank
like
lead
...
What
could
be
more
clear
"
...
he
hung
his
head
...
"
and
more
awful
?
"
His
lips
quivered
while
he
looked
straight
into
my
eyes
.
"
I
had
jumped
--
had
n't
I
?
"
he
asked
,
dismayed
.
"
That
's
what
I
had
to
live
down
.
The
story
did
n't
matter
.
"

He
clasped
his
hands
for
an
instant
,
glanced
right
and
left
into
the
gloom
:
"
It
was
like
cheating
the
dead
,
"
he
stammered
.
375
"'
And
there
were
no
dead
,
"
I
said
.
376
'
He
went
away
from
me
at
this
.
That
is
the
only
way
I
can
describe
it
.
In
a
moment
I
saw
his
back
close
to
the
balustrade
.
He
stood
there
for
some
time
,
as
if
admiring
the
purity
and
the
peace
of
the
night
.
Some
flowering-shrub
in
the
garden
below
spread
its
powerful
scent
through
the
damp
air
.
He
returned
to
me
with
hasty
steps
.
377
"'
And
that
did
not
matter
,
"
he
said
,
as
stubbornly
as
you
please
.

"'
Perhaps
not
,
"
I
admitted
.
I
began
to
have
a
notion
he
was
too
much
for
me
.
After
all
,
what
did
I
know
?
379
"'
Dead
or
not
dead
,
I
could
not
get
clear
,
"
he
said
.
"
I
had
to
live
;
had
n't
I
?
"

"'
Well
,
yes
--
if
you
take
it
in
that
way
,
"
I
mumbled
.
