Some days they must stay to make the necessary preparations for their departure. Among these, in Antony's mind, the first and most necessary was that destruction of Silencieux which he had promised himself and his wife upon the hills. SOME DAYS THEY MUST STAY TO MAKE THE NECESSARY PREPARATIONS FOR THEIR DEPARTURE AMONG THESE IN ANTONY'S MIND THE FIRST AND MOST NECESSARY WAS THE DESTRUCTION OF SELA WHICH HE HAD PROMISED HIMSELF AND HIS WIFE UPON THE HILLS
 weeks and months went by for those two upon the hills, and the soul of Antony grew stronger day by day, and his love with it—and the face of Beatrice was like a bird singing. At last the spring came, and the snow was no more needed to keep warm the flowers. With the flowers came the snowdrop-soul of Wonder, and the thoughts of mother and father turned to the place of kind old trees and tender country bells, where in the unflowering November they had laid her. These dark months the chemic earth had been busy with the little body they loved, and by this time Wonder would be many violets. "Let us go to Wonder," they said; "she is awake now." So they went to Wonder, and found her surrounded, in her earth cradle, by a great singing of birds, and blossoms and green leaves innumerable. It was more like a palace than a graveyard, and they went away happy for their little one. There remained now to take leave of the valley, which indeed looked its loveliest, as though to allure them to remain. DGMENT UPON SILAJO SO THE WEEKS AND MONTHS WENT BY FOR THOSE TWO UPON THE HILLS AND THE SOUL OF ANTONY GREW STRONGER DAY BY DAY AND HIS LOVE WITH IT AND THE FACE OF BEATRICE WAS LIKE A BIRD SINGING AT LAST THE SPRING CAME AND THE SNOW WAS NO MORE NEEDED TO KEEP WARM THE FLOWERS WITH THE FLOWERS CAME THE SNOWDROP'S SOUL OF WONDER AND THE THOUGHTS OF MOTHER AND FATHER TURNED TO THE PLACE OF KIND OLD TREES AND TENDER COUNTRY BELLS WHERE IN THE UNFLOWERING NOVEMBER THEY HAD LAID HER THESE DARK MONTHS THE CHEMIC EARTH HAD BEEN BUSY WITH THE LITTLE BODY THEY LOVED AND BY THIS TIME WONDER WOULD BE MANY VIOLETS LET US GO TO WONDER THEY SAID SHE IS AWAKE NOW SO THEY WENT TO WONDER AND FOUND HER SURROUNDED IN HER EARTH CRADLE BY A GREAT SINGING OF BIRDS AND BLOSSOMS AND GREEN LEAVES INNUMERABLE IT WAS MORE LIKE A PALACE THAN A GRAVEYARD AND THEY WENT AWAY HAPPY FOR THEIR LITTLE ONE THERE REMAINED NOW TO TAKE LEAVE OF THE VALLEY WHICH INDEED LOOKED ITS LOVELIEST AS THOUGH TO ALLURE THEM TO REMAIN
