1 We were off the driveway, walking under the trees.
2 The forest of oak trees on the mountain beyond the town was gone.
3 We saw their white uniforms through the trees and walked toward them.
4 It was really very large and beautiful and there were fine trees in the grounds.
5 Troops went by the house and down the road and the dust they raised powdered the leaves of the trees.
6 Ahead there was a rounded turn-off in the road to the right and looking down I could see the road dropping through the trees.
7 The plain was rich with crops; there were many orchards of fruit trees and beyond the plain the mountains were brown and bare.
8 The road curved and we saw the three cars looking quite small, the dust rising from the wheels and going off through the trees.
9 There were trees along both sides of the road and through the right line of trees I saw the river, the water clear, fast and shallow.
10 To the north we could look across a valley and see a forest of chestnut trees and behind it another mountain on this side of the river.
11 The fields were green and there were small green shoots on the vines, the trees along the road had small leaves and a breeze came from the sea.
12 The snow slanted across the wind, the bare ground was covered, the stumps of trees projected, there was snow on the guns and there were paths in the snow going back to the latrines behind trenches.
13 I saw arched stone bridges over the river where tracks turned off from the road and we passed stone farmhouses with pear trees candelabraed against their south walls and low stone walls in the fields.
14 Jt was warm and like the spring and I walked down the alleyway of trees, warmed from the sun on the wall, and found we still lived in the same house and that it all looked the same as when I had left it.
15 There was fighting for that mountain too, but it was not successful, and in the fall when the rains came the leaves all fell from the chestnut trees and the branches were bare and the trunks black with rain.
16 The trunks of the trees too were dusty and the leaves fell early that year and we saw the troops marching along the road and the dust rising and leaves, stirred by the breeze, falling and the soldiers marching and afterward the road bare and white except for the leaves.
17 The mountain that was beyond the valley and the hillside where the chestnut forest grew was captured and there were victories beyond the plain on the plateau to the south and we crossed the river in August and lived in a house in Gorizia that had a fountain and many thick shady trees in a walled garden and a wistaria vine purple on the side of the house.
