"My voice isn't strong enough to do much, you know, though I'm awfully glad you like the songs.",Only when he had carried all his treasure to the door, did he realize that in all probability his work had been in vain.,"Very pretty indeed, and quite good taste and that. She's a Mrs. Lennox, and her husband is our master of the hounds. She is always quite correct in the matter of clothes."
