Experience, however, teaches most things, and Geoffrey has donned armor for the coming encounter..

One hand is resting lightly with a faintly theatrical touch upon the head of the lean greyhound, the other is raised to her forehead as though to shield her eyes from the bright sun. "I mean," says Mona, flushing a vivid scarlet, "is she stern?" Finally the dogs are called off, and reluctantly accompany the jubilant Mickey down the hill. To Rodney, last night is one ever to be remembered as being a period almost without end, and as a perfect specimen of how seven hours can be made to feel like twenty-one..
