He said I may not marry; that I belong to him; that if I listen to him I shall live to great age.

"His complexion waxeth warm." She tells him of it, and he is deeply interested; and when she proposes to write and get him one from her native soil, he is glad as a schoolboy promised a new bat, and her conquest of Sir Nicholas is complete..
