"But I shall be more content so; and even if I went to bed I could not sleep. Besides, I shall not be companionless when the small hours begin to creep upon me.".

There is a pause. Mona says nothing, but taking out the flower that has lain upon her bosom all night, pulls it to pieces petal by petal. And this is unlike Mona, because flowers are dear to her as sunshine is to them. She winds her arms, around him, seeing he is still determined to go, and, throwing back her head, looks into his face. "Very," returns he, surprised. He has not thought of her as one versed in lore of any kind. "What poets do you prefer?" "Yes," replied Scarface, "I saw them.".
