indifference,
and I dare
say would
have taken
her own
way with
as much
coolness
through an
enemy's
country.
At length
we stopped
before a
very old
house
bulging
out over
the road;
a house
with long
low
lattice-windows
bulging
out still
farther,
and beams
with
carved
heads on
the ends
bulging
out too,
so that I
fancied
the whole
house was
leaning
forward,
trying to
see who
was
passing on
the narrow
pavement
below. It
was quite
spotless
in its
cleanliness.
