The young man watched it go by with silent pity. Then It was far behind him and the train was crossing St. Henri Square.
His nose against the window, Emmanuel saw the level-crossing gates pass by, and the Sacred Heart in bronze, and the switcher's cabin on its piles. He saw a tree in a backyard, its branches tortured among electric wires and clotheslines, its leaves dry and shrivelled before they were fully out.
Low in the sky, dark clouds heralded the storm.
