Mona has no time to hear more; pale, but collected, she walks deliberately into the room and up to Lady Rodney. "Time will soften her grief," says Rodney, with an attempt at soothing. "And she is young; she will marry again, and form new ties." He smiles, and, turning, kneels before her in mock humility that savors of very real homage. Taking her hand, he presses it to his lips..

Mona, though still angered, is yet somewhat softened by this speech, as might any woman.
