"Caught a little cold, that's all; started me coughing again." Mary, watching Corkran, saw the solicitude in his eyes. Then he turned to her, cheerful, smiling boldly. "Himself here, you and the sun are the medicine he needs," he said. "He has you, anyway." She felt as she often did with Corkran something unspoken pass between him and her; the thought incredulously that somehow he had guessed her secret and Richard's which George must never know. "He'll always have me," she said simply. "AU of me. All my life." Her eyes met Corkran' fairly. "Aye," he said. "You're fine." Mat Forbes summoned him.

"I value his liking me; and yet by all the tests I know, he's a graceless, sinful man." He smiled at himself, at his own inconsistency. At dinner next day Richard said they would be ready to depart by evening if the wind served. "We might have to wait" he admitted. "It'll need to come some easterly to help us out of the Bay." He was sending both the remaining boats ashore to fill the casks from a pond the men had found not far from the beach; and he and Peter would take one of the guns from the cabin to try for geese as an addition to their stores. When a little later the boats were gone, the Venturer was almost deserted. Mary became conscious as the afternoon drew on of a change in the wind, and looked out through the small square window above the bunk and saw that the ship had swung so that the southern shores of the bay instead of the northern were now on that starboard side.
