And now she was witnessing or observing the complicated machinery of civilization through which they had come, at length to land on the beach of her island. She followed him about persistently, and succeeded, after a brisk, unchivalrous struggle (in which he pinched and asked her to “cheese it”), in kissing him among the raspberries behind the greenhouse. He became really companionable, discussed the new story he had in mind, and asked some questions about colour. Even now, during the recurring doubts of the future, the thought of the island was repellent. She would often steal away to tryst with him in the orchard, even now she felt her loins grow warm with the memory of his ardor.
