And lo! with the moon, St.John and St.Paul, and the rest of them, began to dawn in the window in their lovely garments.

Diamond did not know that the wonder-working moon was behind, and he thought all the light was coming out of the window itself, and that the good old men were appearing to help him, growing out of the night and the darkness, because he had hurt his arm, and was very tired and lonely, and North Wind was so long in coming.

So he lay and looked at them backwards over his head, wondering when they would come down or what they would do next.

They were very dim, for the moonlight was not strong enough for the colours, and he had enough to do with his eyes trying to make out their shapes.
