MEG lay face downwards on the heath. Her auburn hair gleamed gold among / the bracken, and her faded green dress mingled well with the pink and / green of her resting place.
She had chosen a comfortable couch on which to rest her tired limbs, / and of this she was fully conscious. She had been walking for hours / without food and her strength was nearly played out; but though tired / and hungry she was exulting in the fact that she was alone.
