.. saved me a lot of bother, that
did."
His friend and colleague had been to the town with him to help him in
his choice!
The water is clear and the sands are white and firm. I am longing to try
the bathing. Jeanne, who rows well, volunteered to take me out in the
boat. But to bathe from the boat and near these men! I would rather
wait!

Full moon. In the far distance boats go by with their white sails. They
glide through the dusk like swans on a lake. The silence is so intense
that I can hear when a fish rises or a bird stirs in its nest. The scent
of the red roses that blossomed yesterday ascends to my window here....
Joergen Malthe....
When I write his name it is as though I gave him one of those caressing
touches for which my fingers yearn and quiver....
Yes, a dip in the sea will calm me.
I will undress in the house and wrap myself in my dressing-gown. Then I
can slip through the pine-trees unseen....
* * * * *
It was glorious, glorious! What do I want a bathing-hut for? I go into
the sea straight from my own garden, and the sand is soft and firm to my
feet like the pine-needles under the trees.
