Setting

"The room was warm and clean, the curtains drawn, the two table lamps alight""

"On the sideboard behind her, two tall glasses, soda water, whisky."

"Fresh ice cubes in the Thermos Bucket"

"The drop of the head as she bent over her sewing was curiously tranquil"

"There was a slow smiling air about her , and about everything she did"

Character of Mary

"Now and again she would glance up at the clock, but without anxiety, ...each minute gone by made it nearer the time he would come"

"There was a slow smiling air about her , and about everything she did"

"The drop of the head as she bent over her sewing was curiously tranquil"

"Hullo darling" she said

"She took his coat and hung it in the closet. Then she walked over and made the drinks"

"For her, this was always a blissful time of day"
