I think he'd have embraced Henry Davis. Davis was the settler M.P. who had been responsible, at one stage, for getting Mweta banished to the far Western Province. He naturally assumes you'll come out of exile. They laughed. But they were talking of Mweta; the strange shyness of twenty-two years of marriage made it impossible for her to say: Do you want to go? The passionate beginning, the long openness and understanding between them should have meant that she would know what he wanted. And in a way she did know: because it was for them a code so deeply accepted that it had never been discussed... one was available wherever one was of use. What else was there to live by? And so the question of what they were talking about really amounted to her hidden, pressed-down, banked-over desire to know whether this house, this life in Wiltshire, this life – at last – seemed to him the definitive one, in the end.
