"Pray do not give yourselves so much trouble on my account," says Lady Rodney, with intense but subdued indignation. Far from being disconcerted, this farmyard goddess is not even ashamed (as indeed how could she be?) of her naked arms, and, coming up to him, rests them upon the upper rung of the entrance-gate and surveys him calmly if kindly.
