was—where the window was not—
where there was no sign of it. "Where
is my window?—vvhere is my window?"

that I was be a dream, and these lights

words could not say; for nobody could

nobody could say I was dreaming any
more. I watched him as if I could not
breathe—ray heart in my throat, my
eyes upon him. He looked up and
down, and then he looked back to rae.
I was the first, and I was the last,
though it was not for long; he did
know, he did see, \Oho it was that had
recognized him and sympathized with
him all the time. I was in a kind of
rapture, yet stupor too • my look went
with his look, following it as if I were
his shadow; and then suddenly he was
gone, and I saw him no mare.
I dropped back again upon my seat,
seeking something to support me, some-
thing to lean upon. He had lifted his
hand and waved it once again to me.
How he went I cannot tell; nor where
he went Icannot tell; but in amoment
he was away, and the window stand-

all its space, and the great picture in its

the no pain to see him go away. Ally
heart was so content, and I was so
worn out and satisfied—for what doubt
or question could there be about him
now? As I was lying back as weak as
water, Aunt Mary came in behind me,
and flew to me with a little rustle as if
she had come on wings, and put her
arms round. me, and drew- my head Oil
to her breaat. I had begun to cry a
little, with sobs like a child. "You saw
him, you saw him!” I said. To lean
upon her, and feel her so soft, so kind,
gave me a pleasure 1 cannot describe,
saying "Honey, my honey!" as if she
and. her arms around me, and her voice
were neerly crying too. lering there I
came back to myself, quite sweetly,
glad of everything. But I wanted some
assurance froin them that they had seen
him too. I waved my hand to the win-

the room that was stealing away into
the -faint dark. "This time you saw it
all?" I sent, 'lotting mare eager. "My
