One Moment in Time
'You know I was traveling to Japan for my health,' she said, as we lingered at the fire after dinner and delighted in the movelessness of loafing. 'I was not very strong. I never was. The doctors recommended a sea voyage, and I chose the longest.' ¡¡¡¡'You little knew what you were choosing,' I laughed. ¡¡¡¡'But I shall be a different woman for the experience, as well as a stronger woman,' she answered, 'and, I hope, a better woman. At least I shall understand a great deal more of life.' ¡¡¡¡Then, as the short day waned, we fell to discussing Wolf Larsen's blindness. It was inexplicable, and I instanced his statement that he intended to stay and die on Endeavor Island. There had been his terrific headaches, and we were agreed that it was some sort of brain breakdown, and that in his attacks he endured path beyond our comprehension. ¡¡¡¡I noticed, as we talked over his condition, that Maud's sympathy went out to him more and more; yet I could not but love her for it, so sweetly womanly was it
