"Very well," says Mona, who is pale and thoughtful. "It is pretty, I think," she says. "The duke," with a grave look, "gave it to me just two years after my son was born." The bell stops, and a loud knock at the hall-door takes its place. Was ever sweeter sound heard anywhere? Mona draws her breath quickly, and then as though ashamed of herself goes on stoically with her task. Yet for all her stoicism her color comes and goes, and now she is pale, and now "celestial, rosy red, love's proper hue," and now a little smile comes up and irradiates her face..

"Let us kill our husband," said the other: "then we can go back to our relations and have a good time." Yet much of their time is spent at the Towers. Lady Rodney can hardly do without Mona now, the pretty sympathetic manner and comprehensive glance and gentle smile having worked their way at last, and found a home in the heart that had so determinedly hardened itself against her. "Why don't you call me Nicholas, as Geoffrey does?" "It is a good thing to be in earnest over every matter, however trivial. As I am going to Ireland, you will advise me to study the people, would you not?".
