A willow s long hair suddenlylashed in the strengthening wind and blew against thered sky in green dishevelment. Margaret, oppressed allat once, hoped it wasn t a bad omen. She looked at theeastern sky and saw new and looming clouds, as dark asEdward s face and as unquiet. ~"Let us run.v cried Margaret, and there was an urgencyin her voice which was~not connected with the gatheringstorm at all.The ordeal of Edward Enger begins. |
