"But I have to do with him," says Mona, distinctly. "Don't now," says Mona, in a low, soothing tone folding her in a close embrace; "this is wrong, foolish. And when things come to the worst they mend." Here he breaks down ignominiously, considering the amount of sternness he had summoned to his aid when commencing, and, walking to the mantelpiece, lays his arm on it, and his head upon his arms. Mona is, however, by no means disconcerted; she lifts her calm eyes to Nolly's, and answers him without even a blush..
