What he had seen from afar

Vira de longe a janela de Cecília abrir-se, as duas moças aparecerem, trocarem um olhar; depois Isabel cair de joelhos aos pés de sua prima. Se ele tivesse ouvido o que já sabemos, teria perfeitamente compreendido; mas longe como estava, apenas podia ver, sem ser visto das duas moças.

The setting

He had seen from afar Cecília's window open, the two girls appear, exchange a look; then Isabel fall to her knees at her cousin's feet. Had he heard what we already know, he would have understood perfectly; but far off as he was, he could only see, without being seen by the two girls.
