Subject: Why don't I see these module constants?

Suppose I have a file named 'modtest' which contains the following two
lines:

  X = 1
  Y = 2

Then, I execute this ruby code:

  mod = Module.new {
    load('modtest')
  }
  p mod.constants

When this code runs, I see this:  []

In other words, it's an empty array, which means that I'm not seeing the
constants X and Y.

Why is this?  Is there any way to load the file 'modtest' so that the
resulting anonymous module indeed contains these constants?

Thanks in advance.
