"Of love generally?—no," with a disdainful glance,—"merely of your love of comfort." "Oh, one at a time," says Nolly. "She couldn't do it all at once. Such a stretch of fancy requires thought."

At this extraordinary speech, Lady Rodney stares in bewilderment. It revives him somewhat. And presently the intenser pallor dies away, and speech returns to him. "Ah! indeed! How interesting!" says Lady Lilias, rousing into something that very nearly borders on animation. "I did not think there was in England another room like this."
