She, responding to his mood:
HE
SHE

He speaks

5. She lays down the book
6. She writes to him to come to her
7. The wind rises; the trees are agitated

9. He enters. Taking her in his arms he speaks
10. She smiles through her tears; holding his hands she speaks
PART V
WINTER
1. In the silence of his room. After many days
2. The bitterness of his bereavement speaks in him
3. Her dead face seems to rise up before him
5. He arouses from his abstraction
6. He looks from his window toward the sombre west
7. He turns from the window, takes up a book and reads
8. The storm is heard sounding wildly with wind and hail
9. He sits by the slowly dying fire. The storm is heard with increased violence
