"Thanks!" returns he, with an ironical laugh. "How excellently your tone agrees with your words?" "It is like the garden of the palace where the Sleeping Beauty dwelt," whispers Mona to Nolly; she is delighted, charmed, lost in admiration. "Now you are their friend forever," says Mona, in a pleased tone. "Once they do that, they mean to tell you they have adopted you. And they like very few people: so it is a compliment.".

He makes no reply. And for a full minute no word is spoken between them. How sweet it is to be wanted by those we love!

So it becomes sacred, and almost desirable, in his eyes. To some of these people that he had freed he said, "Where are there any other people? I want to visit all the people."
