"He may not,—there is a faint chance,—but of course the title is gone, as he has proved his birth beyond dispute." "If you wish," he says, in a courteous tone, but one full of coldness; and so they commence their homeward journey.

Mona, horror-stricken, goes quickly over to her, and touches her lightly on the shoulder. Behind her rises a tall shrub of an intense green, against which the soft whiteness of her satin gown gleams with a peculiar richness. Her gaze is fixed upon a distant planet that watches her solemnly through the window from its seat in the far-off heaven, "silent, as if it watch'd the sleeping earth." At this Mona breaks into a sweet but ringing laugh, that makes Lady Rodney (who is growing sleepy, and, therefore, irritable) turn, and fix upon her a cold, reproving glance. 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..
