Darius, and then Daniel,
Dazed, regarded Glendy once again.
The moonlit one was gone, and only these
Had seen him—these and Dora, and dumb Bruce.
And all of the nine strangers. For they too
Had listened; bending their bodies, they had weighed,
Had witnessed every word as it arrived;
Had watched the boy’s confusion; then the girl’s;
Then both together, as if woe had wed
Already the poor lovers.
