"Poor Mona!" says Geoffrey; "don't tell her about it, as remorse may sadden her." "What, indeed?" says Geoffrey, tragically. "Worse still, what would have become of poor Mona?" Lauderdale makes a little face, and tells himself secretly "all women are liars," but the duchess is very pleased, and bends her friendliest glance upon the pretty creature at her side, who possesses that greatest of all charms, inability to notice the ravages of time..
