4 She lingered a moment, caught in the same strong current; then she slipped from him and drew back a step or two, pale and troubled.

9 She sat opposite the window, and the pale light reflected from the banks of snow made her face look more than usually drawn and bloodless, sharpened the three parallel creases between ear and cheek, and drew querulous lines from her thin nose to the corners of her mouth.
