Elinor came, with the painter following, and as soon as they saw the work of the storm, Bruce awoke to immediate action. Judith's dramatic sense asserted itself, and she frowned at Patricia's frivolous interruption of the portentous silence. "I hope he doesn't," said Patricia, warmly. "For then you'll have to stay longer with us. And we're going to have such a good time!".

You will remain at the entrance of your sister's palace, and I impose no further punishment upon you, than to be the constant witnesses of her happiness. You will not be able to resume your present forms, until you have recognised and confessed your faults, but I greatly fear that you will always remain statues. Pride, anger, greediness, and laziness may be corrected; but nothing short of a miracle can convert the envious and malicious heart."

There was a shout of amazed laughter, but Patricia persisted:.
