Several weeks had passed away since Christian Christianson and Priscilla Sefton had met accidentally on the sands, and since that day the two had scarcely been alone in each other's company. True, they had met; for was not Christian now a constant attendant at the religious services held in the cottage at Brightlinghead? Indeed, so absorbed had he become in religious fervour that he completely forgot to watch how affairs were going on at home. It seemed to him now that he was continually sitting in the little cottage listening to the beautiful voice of the girl as she sang the quaint new hymns, or watching her beautiful bowed head as she joined her father in prayer.
Then when the service was over, he, longing yet dreading to stay, walked out with his brother worshippers and strode moody and dissatisfied towards his home.
