He had gone. She gathered herself together and went across the field to / meet the Powells as if nothing had happened.
Milly and her husband were standing at the gate of the Farm. They were / watching; yes, they were watching Rodney Lanyon as he crossed the river / by the Farm bridge which led up the hill by the field path that slanted / to the farther and western end of the wood. Their attitude showed that / they were interested in his brief appearance on the scene, and that they / wondered what he had been doing there. And as she approached them she / was aware of something cold, ominous, and inimical, that came from / them, and set towards her and passed by. Her sense of it only lasted for / a second, and was gone so completely that she could hardly realise that / she had ever felt it.
