"Yes; where is Mona?" says Jack, looking up from the cup she has just given him. "No, I am not afraid," says the girl, resisting his effort to put himself before her; and when he would have spoken she puts up her hands, and warns him to keep silence. "Well, I suppose I am wrong," says Mona, with a sigh. "Are you very angry with me, Geoff? Would you ever have forgiven me if I had done it?".

This evidence of emotion from her is worth a torrent from another. "You are candor itself," returns he, with a short laugh, shrugging his shoulders.
