It served, also, to explain, by supernatural evidence, the cause of those sounds, and of that appearance which had been there observed, but which were, in reality, occasioned only by the marquis.,Here she waited in the shadow of the fluttering violet arc light, with her eyes fastened to the silent, insensible windows.
