Gently
the
yellow
curtain
with
all
the
birds
of
Paradise
blew
out
and
it
seemed
as
if
there
were
a
flight
of
wings
into
the
room
,
right
out
,
then
sucked
back
.
(
For
the
windows
were
open
.
)
Was
it
draughty
,
Ellie
Henderson
wondered
?
She
was
subject
to
chills
.
But
it
did
not
matter
that
she
should
come
down
sneezing
to-morrow
;
it
was
the
girls
with
their
naked
shoulders
she
thought
of
,
being
trained
to
think
of
others
by
an
old
father
,
an
invalid
,
late
vicar
of
Bourton
,
but
he
was
dead
now
;
and
her
chills
never
went
to
her
chest
,
never
.
802
It
was
the
girls
she
thought
of
,
the
young
girls
with
their
bare
shoulders
,
she
herself
having
always
been
a
wisp
of
a
creature
,
with
her
thin
hair
and
meagre
profile
;
though
now
,
past
fifty
,
there
was
beginning
to
shine
through
some
mild
beam
,
something
purified
into
distinction
by
years
of
self-abnegation
but
obscured
again
,
perpetually
,
by
her
distressing
gentility
,
her
panic
fear
,
which
arose
from
three
hundred
pounds
'
income
,
and
her
weaponless
state
(
she
could
not
earn
a
penny
)
and
it
made
her
timid
,
and
more
and
more
disqualified
year
by
year
to
meet
well-dressed
people
who
did
this
sort
of
thing
every
night
of
the
season
,
merely
telling
their
maids
"
I
'll
wear
so
and
so
,
"
whereas
Ellie
Henderson
ran
out
nervously
and
bought
cheap
pink
flowers
,
half
a
dozen
,
and
then
threw
a
shawl
over
her
old
black
dress
.
For
her
invitation
to
Clarissa
's
party
had
come
at
the
last
moment
.
She
was
not
quite
happy
about
it
.
She
had
a
sort
of
feeling
that
Clarissa
had
not
meant
to
ask
her
this
year
.
803
Why
should
she
?
There
was
no
reason
really
,
except
that
they
had
always
known
each
other
.
Indeed
,
they
were
cousins
.
But
naturally
they
had
rather
drifted
apart
,
Clarissa
being
so
sought
after
.
It
was
an
event
to
her
,
going
to
a
party
.
It
was
quite
a
treat
just
to
see
the
lovely
clothes
.
Was
n't
that
Elizabeth
,
grown
up
,
with
her
hair
done
in
the
fashionable
way
,
in
the
pink
dress
?
Yet
she
could
not
be
more
than
seventeen
.
She
was
very
,
very
handsome
.
But
girls
when
they
first
came
out
did
n't
seem
to
wear
white
as
they
used
.

(
She
must
remember
everything
to
tell
Edith
.
)
Girls
wore
straight
frocks
,
perfectly
tight
,
with
skirts
well
above
the
ankles
.
It
was
not
becoming
,
she
thought
.
805
So
,
with
her
weak
eyesight
,
Ellie
Henderson
craned
rather
forward
,
and
it
was
n't
so
much
she
who
minded
not
having
any
one
to
talk
to
(
she
hardly
knew
anybody
there
)
,
for
she
felt
that
they
were
all
such
interesting
people
to
watch
;
politicians
presumably
;
Richard
Dalloway
's
friends
;
but
it
was
Richard
himself
who
felt
that
he
could
not
let
the
poor
creature
go
on
standing
there
all
the
evening
by
herself
.
806
"
Well
,
Ellie
,
and
how
's
the
world
treating
YOU
?
"
he
said
in
his
genial
way
,
and
Ellie
Henderson
,
getting
nervous
and
flushing
and
feeling
that
it
was
extraordinarily
nice
of
him
to
come
and
talk
to
her
,
said
that
many
people
really
felt
the
heat
more
than
the
cold
.
807
"
Yes
,
they
do
,
"
said
Richard
Dalloway
.
"
Yes
.
"

808
But
what
more
did
one
say
?
809
"
Hullo
,
Richard
,
"
said
somebody
,
taking
him
by
the
elbow
,
and
,
good
Lord
,
there
was
old
Peter
,
old
Peter
Walsh
.
He
was
delighted
to
see
him
--
ever
so
pleased
to
see
him
!
He
had
n't
changed
a
bit
.
And
off
they
went
together
walking
right
across
the
room
,
giving
each
other
little
pats
,
as
if
they
had
n't
met
for
a
long
time
,
Ellie
Henderson
thought
,
watching
them
go
,
certain
she
knew
that
man
's
face
.
A
tall
man
,
middle
aged
,
rather
fine
eyes
,
dark
,
wearing
spectacles
,
with
a
look
of
John
Burrows
.
Edith
would
be
sure
to
know
.
810
The
curtain
with
its
flight
of
birds
of
Paradise
blew
out
again
.
And
Clarissa
saw
--
she
saw
Ralph
Lyon
beat
it
back
,
and
go
on
talking
.
So
it
was
n't
a
failure
after
all
!
it
was
going
to
be
all
right
now
--
her
party
.
It
had
begun
.
It
had
started
.
But
it
was
still
touch
and
go
.
She
must
stand
there
for
the
present
.
People
seemed
to
come
in
a
rush
.
