"Oh, to think Geoffrey should marry 'a good girl'!" she says, weeping sadly. "One would think you were speaking of a servant! Oh! it is too cruel!" Here she rises and makes for the door, but on the threshold pauses to confront Sir Nicholas with angry eyes.

I don't think if I lived forever I should be able to pronounce such a sad word as that. Do—do the natives speak like that?" "I'll tell you all something," he says, "though I hardly think I ought, if you will swear not to betray me.".
