秦香从车上下来，左手端着装了沙的蚌，右手扛着画架，左兜放着一枝花，右兜放着一条围脖，向海走去。

余秋滨紧紧跟着他，莫名想到一句话：天河与海通，有浮槎来去。

走了许久，终于走到一处崖石，可以看见大海由远及近的不同颜色。他把画架立在那里，丝巾围在上面。

她的丝巾套在他的画架上，这样就像是两人紧密地在一起，相互依偎，永不分离。

“how do i love thee let me count the ways.

i love thee to the depth and breadth and height.

my soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

for the ends of being and ideal grace.

i love thee to the level of everyday's

most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.

i love thee freely, as men strive for right;

i love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
