"Am I harsh?" says Mona, wistfully. "Oh, no, you won't," says Rodney, absently. In truth, his mind is wandering to that last little speech of hers, and is trying to unravel it. "Then you are out of your mind," says Rodney. Great now was the happiness of these young people. Long was their life, full of plenty and of great honor.
