For
some
days
the
weather
had
been
calm
and
clear
with
slight
frosts
in
the
mornings
--
what
is
called
an
"
old
wives
'
summer
.
"
In
the
sunshine
the
air
was
warm
,
and
that
warmth
was
particularly
pleasant
with
the
invigorating
freshness
of
the
morning
frost
still
in
the
air
.
On
everything
--
far
and
near
--
lay
the
magic
crystal
glitter
seen
only
at
that
time
of
autumn
.
The
Sparrow
Hills
were
visible
in
the
distance
,
with
the
village
,
the
church
,
and
the
large
white
house
.
The
bare
trees
,
the
sand
,
the
bricks
and
roofs
of
the
houses
,
the
green
church
spire
,
and
the
corners
of
the
white
house
in
the
distance
,
all
stood
out
in
the
transparent
air
in
most
delicate
outline
and
with
unnatural
clearness
.
Near
by
could
be
seen
the
familiar
ruins
of
a
half-burned
mansion
occupied
by
the
French
,
with
lilac
bushes
still
showing
dark
green
beside
the
fence
.

And
even
that
ruined
and
befouled
house
--
which
in
dull
weather
was
repulsively
ugly
--
seemed
quietly
beautiful
now
,
in
the
clear
,
motionless
brilliance
.
A
French
corporal
,
with
coat
unbuttoned
in
a
homely
way
,
a
skullcap
on
his
head
,
and
a
short
pipe
in
his
mouth
,
came
from
behind
a
corner
of
the
shed
and
approached
Pierre
with
a
friendly
wink
.
"
What
sunshine
,
Monsieur
Kiril
!
"
(
Their
name
for
Pierre
.
)
"
Eh
?
Just
like
spring
!
"
And
the
corporal
leaned
against
the
door
and
offered
Pierre
his
pipe
,
though
whenever
he
offered
it
Pierre
always
declined
it
.

"
To
be
on
the
march
in
such
weather
...
"
he
began
.
Pierre
inquired
what
was
being
said
about
leaving
,
and
the
corporal
told
him
that
nearly
all
the
troops
were
starting
and
there
ought
to
be
an
order
about
the
prisoners
that
day
.
Sokolóv
,
one
of
the
soldiers
in
the
shed
with
Pierre
,
was
dying
,
and
Pierre
told
the
corporal
that
something
should
be
done
about
him
.
The
corporal
replied
that
Pierre
need
not
worry
about
that
as
they
had
an
ambulance
and
a
permanent
hospital
and
arrangements
would
be
made
for
the
sick
,
and
that
in
general
everything
that
could
happen
had
been
foreseen
by
the
authorities
.
"
Besides
,
Monsieur
Kiril
,
you
have
only
to
say
a
word
to
the
captain
,
you
know
.
He
is
a
man
who
never
forgets
anything
.
Speak
to
the
captain
when
he
makes
his
round
,
he
will
do
anything
for
you
.
