Bebee

CHAPTER III
3/10

Her feet were fair in the brown wooden shoes.

Under the short woollen skirts the grace of her pretty limbs moved freely.

Her broad silver clasps shone like a shield, and she was utterly unconscious that any one looked; she was simply and gravely intent on reaching St.Gudule to say her one prayer and not keep the children waiting.
Some one leaning idly over a balcony in the street that is named after Mary of Burgundy saw her going thus.

He left the balcony and went down his stairs and followed her.
The sun-dazzle on the silver had first caught his sight; and then he had looked downward at the pretty feet.
These are the chances women call Fate.
Bebee entered the cathedral.

It was quite empty.
