I asked with the greatest interest, which I didn't really feel, in the weather; but what could I think of to say?

He saw them through the window. Every step was growing more painful,—he must get to his room. The space from the woodshed roof to the tower room, before so easily surmounted by a swinging jump, looked now as high and far as Mount Whitney. Back to the window he turned.
