Can I get anything for

'Can I get anything for madame?' asked Josephine; 'a _tisane_, a warm drink, something?' 'Nothing, nothing.' 'Will madame dine?' 'No.' 'Madame had better not go wholly without eating.' 'Bring me a bottle of wine-of brandy.' Josephine obeyed. When she returned, Hortense was standing in the doorway, and as one of the shutters had meanwhile been thrown open, the woman could see that, although her mistress's hat had been tossed upon the sofa, her cloak had not been removed, and that her face was very pale. Josephine felt that she might not offer sympathy nor ask questions. 'Will madame have nothing more?' she ventured to say, as she handed her the tray. Madame shook her head, and closed and locked the door. Josephine stood a moment vexed, irresolute, listening. She heard no sound. At last she deliberately stooped down and applied her eye to the key-hole. This is what she saw: Her mistress had gone to the open window, and stood with her back to the door, looking out at the sea.
