BioAt any rate, the Blenker habitation would probably be deserted,
and he would be able, without indiscretion, to satisfy a vague
curiosity concerning it. He was not sure that he wanted to see
the Countess Olenska again; but ever since he had looked at her
from the path above the bay he wanted, irrationally and
indescribably, to see the place she was living in, and to follow
the movements of her imagined figure as he had watched the real
one in the summer-house. The longing was with him day and night,
an incessant undefinable craving, like the sudden whim of a sick
man for food and drink once tasted and long since forgotten. He
could not see beyond the craving, or picture what it might lead
to, for he was not conscious of any wish to speak to Madame
Olenska or to hear her voice. He simply felt that if he could
carry away the vision of the spot of earth she walked on, and
the way the sky and sea enclosed it, the rest of the world might
seem less empty.
