Lubber was at home, ready to receive his mysterious visitor.
What other gifts had our mysterious visitor left for us?
The mysterious visitor had said that it would take 200 years (Earth time) to reach the nearest star.
"In other words, it's up to our mysterious visitor as to whether he shows himself to us or not."
Her mysterious visitor made a little bow, the best he could do in the constricted space, and took his leave.
"That's why I wasn't making any bets about your mysterious visitor."
The man on shore listened, apparently anxious to be sure that the mysterious visitors were gone.
And that must have been the one the mysterious visitors had followed.
The mysterious visitor was a thing of the past, like the clock bells that had told the half hour.
They all have the same signature as our mysterious visitor.
