"But you told me no maiden aunt had ever come to your assistance," goes on Mona, remorselessly. And so they are married, and last words are spoken, and adieux said, and sad tears fall, and for many days her own land knows Mona no more. "Yes, deliberately," returns he, with wilful recklessness..

"I will come, of course," says Mona, nervously, "but I am afraid she will be disappointed. You will excuse me, Mr. Rodney, I am sure," turning graciously to Paul, who is standing with folded arms in the background. Every one is delighted.

"While you still lived? While I might be of some use to you? No!" says Mona, her eyes gleaming. "To myself I said, there will be time enough for that later on." Then, with a little dry sob, "There will be time to die later on.".
