I sat still.  Spain rose behind me, Spain and Europe.  Before me, out of sea, lifted the New Lands.  There fell a moment of great calm and quiet.  Then, fleeting, like a spirit, passed before me the Indian Guarin who had saved me after La Navidad.  I saw his dark eyes, then he went.  Still space without color or line or form, and outside, dreamily, dreamily, the ocean sounding below La Rabida.  Then, in the clear field rose Bartolome de Las Casas.  A quiet, singing voice ran through Jayme de Marchena, and he knew that he would return to Hispaniola and link his life with that younger life which apparently had work to do in the Indies.
