And over all whirred the murmur of wind sweeping the tops of the trees like a great harp, and the faint tapping on the tent as drops fell from the branches with a sharp pinging sound. BLED AS THOUGH SOME ONE HAD TOUCHED IT THAT'S THE WIND RISING WHISPERED THE CLERGYMAN AND PULLED THE FLAP OPEN AS FAR AS IT WOULD GO A WAFT OF COLD DAMP AIR ENTERED AND MADE US SHIVER AND WITH IT CAME A SOUND OF THE SEA AS THE FIRST WAVE WASHED ITS WAY SOFTLY ANG THE SHORES IT'S GOT ROUND TO THE NORTH HE ADDED AND FOLLOWING HIS VOICE CAME A LONG DRAWN WHISPER THAT ROSE FROM THE WHOLE ISLAND AS THE TREES SENT FORTH A SIGHING RESPONSE THE FOG'LL MOVE A BIT NOW I CAN MAKE OUT A LANE ACROSS THE SEA ALREADY HUSH SAID DOCTOR SILENCE FOR MALONEY'S VOICE HAD RISEN ABOVE A WHISPER AND WE SETTLED DOWN AGAIN TO ANOTHER LONG PERIOD OF WATCHING AND WAITING BROKEN ONLY BY THE OCCASIONAL RUBBING OF SHOULDERS AGAINST THE CANVAS AS WE SHIFTED OUR POSITIONS AND THE INCREASING NOISE OF WAVES ON THE OUTER COAST LINE OF THE ISLAND AND OVER ALL WERE THE MURMUR OF WIND SWEEPING THE TOPS OF THE TREES LIKE A GREAT HARP AND THE FAINT TAPPING ON THE TENT AS DROPS FELL FROM THE BRANCHES WITH A SHARP PINGING SOUND
