Mary sat musing on the lamp-flame at the table / Waiting for Warren. When she heard his step, / She ran on tip-toe down the darkened passage / To meet him in the doorway with the news / And put him on his guard. "Silas is back."
She pushed him outward with her through the door / And shut it after her. "Be kind," she said.
