With the tears streaming down her face，she put her two hands to her lips，and kissed them to Him; then clasped(紧握着)them on her breast，as if she laid his ruined head there．
“You are not the gaoler’s(监狱长)daughter ?”
She sighed“No. ”
“Who are you ?”
Not yet trusting the tones of her voice，she sat down on the bench beside him．He drew back
but she laid her hand upon his arm．A strange thrill struck him when she did so, and visibly passed
over his frame; he laid the knife down softly，as he sat staring at her．
Her golden hair，which she wore in long curls，had been hurriedly pushed aside，and fell down
over her neck．Advancing his hand by little and little，he took it up and looked at it．In the middle
of the action he went astray，and，with another deep sigh，fell to work at his shoemaking．
But lot for long．Releasing his arm，she laid her hand upon his shoulder．After looking
doubtfully at it，two or three times，as if to be sure that it was really there，he laid down his work，
put his hand to his neck，and took off a blackened string with a scrap of folded rag attached to it．
He opened this，carefully，on his knee，and it contained a very little quantity of hair：not more than
one or two long golden hairs，which he had，in some old day，wound on upon his finger．
He took her hair into his hand again，and looked closely at it．“It is the same．How can it be!
When was it! How was it!”
As the concentrating expression returned to his forehead，he seemed to become conscious that
it was in hers too．He turned her full to the light，and looked at her．
“She had laid her head upon my shoulder，that night when I was summoned(传唤)out—she
had a fear of my going，though I had none—and when I was brought to the North Tower they
found these upon my sleeve．‘You will leave me them? They can never help me to escape in the
body，though they may in the spirit．’Those were the words I said．I remember them very well. ”
He formed this speech with his lips many times before he could utter it．But when he did find
spoken words for it，they came to him coherently(连贯地)，though slowly．
“How was this?一Was it you? ”
