〃My God; darling;〃 Catherine said。 〃Couldnt we have gotten away any sooner?〃 I gave the name of a hotel one of the officials had remended to the driver。 He picked up the reins。
〃Youve forgotten the army;〃 Catherine said。 The soldier was standing by the carriage。 I gave him a ten…lira note。 〃I have no Swiss money yet;〃 I said。 He thanked me; saluted and went off。 The carriage started and we drove to the hotel。
〃How did you happen to pick out Montreux?〃 I asked Catherine。 〃Do you really want to go there?〃
〃It was the first place I could think of;〃 she said。 〃Its not a bad place。 We can find some place up in the mountains。〃
〃Are you sleepy?〃
〃Im asleep right now。〃
〃Well get a good sleep。 Poor Cat; you had a long bad night。〃
〃I had a lovely time;〃 Catherine said。 〃Especially when you sailed with the umbrella。〃
〃Can you realize were in Switzerland?〃
〃No; Im afraid Ill wake up and it wont be true。〃
〃I am too。〃
〃It is true; isnt it; darling? Im not just driving down to the stazione in Milan to see you off。〃
〃I hope not。〃
〃Dont say that。 It frightens me。 Maybe thats where were going。〃
〃Im so groggy I dont know;〃 I said。
〃Let me see your hands。〃
I put them out。 They were both blistered raw。
〃Theres no hole in my side;〃 I said。
〃Dont be sacrilegious。〃
I felt very tired and vague in the head。 The exhilaration was all gone。 The carriage was going along the Street。
〃Poor hands;〃 Catherine said。
〃Dont touch them;〃 I said。 〃By God I dont know where we are。 Where are we going; driver?〃 The driver stopped his horse。
〃To the Hotel Metropole。 Dont you want to go there?〃
〃Yes;〃 I said。 〃Its all right; Cat。〃
〃Its all right; darling。 Dont be upset。 Well get a good sleep and you wont feel groggy to…morrow。〃
〃I get pretty groggy;〃 I said。 〃Its like a ic opera to…day。 Maybe Im hungry。〃
〃Youre just tired; darling。 Youll be fine。〃 The carriage pulled up before the hotel。 Some one came out to take our bags。
〃I feel all right;〃 I said。 We were down on the pavement going into the hotel。
〃I know youll be all right。 Youre just tired。 Youve been up a long time。〃
〃Anyhow were here。〃
〃Yes; were really here。〃
We followed the boy with the bags into the hotel。

That fall the snow came very late。 We lived in a brown wooden house in the pine trees on the side of the mountain and at night there was frost so that there was thin ice over the water in the two pitchers on the dresser in the morning。 Mrs。 Guttingen came into the room early in the morning to shut the windows and started a fire in the tall porcelain stove。 The pine wood crackled and sparked an
