Her face is hidden; it is lying on her arms, and they are cast, in the utter recklessness and abandonment of her grief, across the feet of him who, only yesterday, had been her "man,"—her pride and her delight. "Good by, dear Paul," says Mona, very gently, impressed by his evident grief and earnestness. "Give me my answer," he says, sternly.
