"You dance, of course," says Lady Rodney, turning to Mona, a little ashamed, perhaps, of her late rudeness. Mrs. Rodney, however, has been foraging on her own account during this brief interlude, and now brings triumphantly to light a little basin filled with early snowdrops. She excuses her unwonted drowsiness with a little laugh, natural and friendly, and begs them "not to betray her."

She shrinks a little from the task, and would fain have evaded it altogether; though there is happiness, too, in the thought that here is an occasion on which she may be of real use to him. Will not the very act itself bring her nearer to him? Is it not sweet to feel that it is in her power to ease his pain? And is she not only doing what a tender wife would gladly do for her husband?
