"I know that," says Geoffrey, "and the knowledge makes me more happy than I can say. But to Rome you shall go, whatever it may cost. And then we shall return to England to our own home. And then—little rebel that you are—you must begin to look upon yourself as an English subject, and accept the queen as your gracious sovereign." At this, in spite of everything, Rodney laughs lightly, and, taking her hand in his, draws it through his arm. There is love and trust and great content in his laugh. "What else?" says Mona, shyly..

I saw a great many students, too," says Mona, brightening, "and liked them very much. They liked me, too." "'I feel that I am happier than I know,'" quotes he, softly, folding her closely to his heart..
