He had been back for two weeks during some pleasant weather in July. He saw her, dripping with rosy pearls, rise out of the lagoon in the dawn light: he saw her flashing to and fro among the coco palms in the moonshine: he saw her breasting the hurricane, her body as full of grace and beauty as the Winged Victory of the Louvre. Still —there you are!” He paused. I'll see her myself; and that's more than she bargained for, I'll be sworn. But I will not be engaged as ‘Alcide’ or advertised under that name. "I'll make a sketch, too," he said. But I proved it to them! Oh yeah, I told John, but I don’t think he believes me either. The Wastrel—as we call him—cannot play when he's sober; hands too shaky. Many a black veil hid a high-born dame, and the religious habit was no protection. I do not know if I will have to escape quickly once more. The evenings were beginning to draw out, and it would not be dark for an hour. Someday I'll take you down there and have them rig up the coconut dance for you. I do not desire to extenuate my guilt—far less to defend it; but I would show you, and such as you —who, happily, are exempted from trials like mine—how much misery has to do with crime.
