Rodney, standing on the threshold at the end of the small hall, can hear distinctly all that passes. "Why don't I hate you?" he says, with some emotion. "How bitterly unkind even the softest, sweetest women can be! Yet there is something about you that subdues me and renders hatred impossible. If I had never met you, I should be a happier man."

Every particle of his former passion has died from his voice, and he is now quite calm, nay cheerful. So they start, in a lazy, happy-go-lucky fashion, for their walk, conversing as they go, of themselves principally as all true lovers will. She herself destroys it presently..
