When the Rookery had been searched in vain, he walked fast to the border of the little stream that bounded one side of the grounds.

The stream was almost everywhere hidden among trees, and there was one place where it was broader and deeper than elsewhere--she would be more likely to come to that spot than to the pool.

He hurried along with strained eyes, his imagination continually creating what he dreaded to see.
There is something white behind that overhanging bough.

His knees tremble under him.

He seems to see part of her dress caught on a branch, and her dear dead face upturned.
