"Mr. Maxwell! Mr. Maxwell!" cries Mona, as he approaches them; and the heavy man, drawing up, looks round at her with keen surprise, bending his head a little forward, as though the better to pierce the gloom. "No, indeed," says Mona, laughing. "But it surely wasn't English, was it? That is not the way everybody talks, surely." "If you can say that again now, in cold blood, after so many hours of thought, you must be indeed heartless," says Rodney; "and"—standing up—"I may as well go.".

"Quite sure," says Mona, and then she laughs aloud—a sweet, joyous laugh,—and clasps her hands together with undisguised delight and satisfaction. "I dare say," she says, carelessly, purposely mistaking his meaning: "it must have been cold lying there." "No, they are not. Geoffrey, people look much better when they are beautifully dressed, don't they?" "But why?—why? Is it because you love me? Oh, Mona! If it is that!
