The light from the hanging lamp shone on his thick brown hair burnishing it like bronze .

The loose planks rattled rhythmically under their steps with obstrusive dry sound in the perfect silence of the night .

The very real fear for her safety that the thought of the coming expedition gave him , her nearness in the mystery of the Eastern night , the lights , the music , had all combined to rush to his lips words that in a saner moment would never have passed them .

For the advent of the man who a few weeks before she had loathed for his brutal abduction of herself she now prayed with the desperation of despair .

An acrid smell of damp earth and of decaying leaves took him by the throat , and he drew back with a scared face , as if he had been touched by the breath of Death itself .

The short talk with Reshid , the proposal of Abdulla steadied her a little and turned her thoughts into another channel . Dain was in some danger . He was hiding from white men .

And now all the settlement talked of Dain 's visit to the Rajah and of his death when crossing the river in the dark to see Almayer . They could not understand this .

Even the feeling of the ring on her hand had not brought her this sharp sense of the irretrievable .

She looked timidly at his profile : it was graver than usual , as though he too were oppressed by what they had seen .

Evidently Lakamba 's mercy went so far -- for in a short while he came out from behind the curtain -- but it did not go to the length of inducing him to make an extensive toilet .

The last glare of the sunset was on her guardian 's face , which looked ash-coloured in the yellow radiance . `` Because I knew you were here , '' he answered simply .

A few days of autumn cold had wiped out all trace of the rich fields and languid groves through which she had passed on the Fourth of July ; and with the fading of the landscape those fervid hours had faded , too .

At last , when all hope seemed dead , he was overjoyed on hearing Dain 's voice ; but Dain also appeared very anxious to see Lakamba , and Almayer felt uneasy owing to a deep and ineradicable distrust as to that ruler 's disposition towards himself .

While they laughed he was reciting to himself the old story : `` Dain dead , all my plans destroyed . This is the end of all hope and of all things . '' His heart sank within him .

Between those two beings so dissimilar , so antagonistic , she stood with mute heart wondering and angry at the fact of her own existence .

Leaning from her window she looked out on the dark and empty scene ; the ashen houses with shuttered windows , the grey road climbing the slope to the hemlock belt above the cemetery , and the heavy mass of the Mountain black against a rainy sky .
