way out of hearing--till
the echoes of our own voices come back and startle us from behind the
chapel buttresses... If we wait till then, we part sadly and miss the
promise of a meeting again. But if we part now, while Arthur, on the
box of his cab, with his "people" safely stowed inside, is whooping his
noisy farewells right and left--while Smedley, with his Balliol
scholarship in his pocket, is leaving Grandcourt for good, and casting
his last shy look up at the doctor's window--while Messrs. Roe, Grover,
and Railsford are talking cheerfully of their Highland trip in August--
while monsieur, humming _Partant pour la Syrie_, is hurrying away to his
own dear France and his still dearer little girls--while Ainger and
Barnworth, the old and the new captains of Railsford's, are grasping
hands at the door--if we part now, we part not as those who bid a long
farewell, but as those who think and talk of meeting again.
