"Now for a sight of the dislocated gentleman," said Elinor gayly. "And then for the great event." "I am not so sure of that, Etwald. How did you know that David would confess in so dramatic a fashion?" "I see," said Jen, thoughtfully, "and I can understand their motives. Dido wished you to marry Etwald.".
