Jocelyn had strolled away by herself -- she had a longing to be alone with the sea. She did not know exactly what it was that she wanted, but it seemed to her that the sea would give her a feeling of rest. She was annoyed presently to find Nielsen beside her. He had humbly brought her the service of his green-lined umbrella, and she had not the heart to send him away, when he asked gently if he bored her.
They strolled together towards a group of rocks that jutted in a blunt, curving point into the sea.
