She stands well back from Geoffrey, and then, without any of the foolish, unlovely bashfulness that degenerates so often into awkwardness in the young, begins her dance.

He looked all through the camp, but could not find her. Then he knew that the Thunder had taken her away, and he went out on the hills and mourned. All night he sat there, trying to think what he might do to get back his wife. But which way to go? To Mona all round is an undiscovered country, and for that reason possesses an indiscribable charm.

"Oh, it is dreadfully late!" says Mona, with much compunction. "Come, let us hurry.".
