Inactivity was at all times intolerable to him to stand thus for hours was an exercise of impatient patience which only his relentless passion made possible ; his body yielded to a sort of numbness , whilst the suffering expectancy of his mind only grew keener . He durst not avert his eyes from the door for an instant ; his sight ached and dazzled . Still he waited . At eleven o'clock Emily came forth . A savage delight seized him as he watched her cross the patch of garden . At the gate she hesitated a moment , then took the way neither to the Heath nor to Dunfield , but crossed to the lane which led to Pendal . From his hiding-place Dagworthy could follow her so far , and with ecstasy he told himself that she must be going to the Castle Hill .
