The city was quiet that night; Bobrov, at his window, continued to watch and ponder till long after dark.
High in the starlit summer sky, pale clouds passed from time to time, drifting in a leisurely procession, glowing in the reflection of the crescent moon that was now arising in the south.
And softly the wind moved over the land.
