Her left hand reminded her of its existence, and she looked round to see what was scratching the heel of her hand.

She gazed at it for a long time.

Heart of my heart, we are one with the wind, One with the clouds that are whirled o'er the lea, One in many, O broken and blind, One as the waves are at one with the sea!
