"Oh, I wish you wouldn't, Norn," protested Patricia, in a small voice. "I do so want to have her for a friend. She's so lovely and talented and attractive. What is the matter with her now that you say such things? You didn't use to feel like that." "Both of them will refuse to meet you. You saw Mrs. Dallas to-day, how she behaved." I took possession of it and carried it to a bench in the garden that backs up against the purple sprayed lilacs and is flanked by two rows of tall purple and white iris that stand in line ready for a Virginia reel with a delicate row of the poet's narcissus across the broad path. I love my flowers. I love them swaying on their stems in the wind, and I like to snatch them and crush the life out of them against my breast and face. I have been to bed every night this spring with a bunch of cool violets against my cheek, and I feel that I am going to dance with my tall row of hollyhocks as soon as they are old enough to hold up their heads and take notice. They always remind me of very stately gentlemen, and I have wondered if the little narcissus weren't shaking their ruffles at them..

"Indeed you did no such thing," retorted Etwald, coolly. "My story is quite different to that of Dido." "I came down here to escape Dido," explained Isabella, slipping her hand within his. "You don't like her to be with us." "I'll choose the song," she announced, gayly. "I've heard a lot of howling already this evening." "I never want to set eyes on you again," said Jen, bluntly..
