The duchess laughs. The moon has gone behind a cloud, the road is almost wrapped in complete gloom, when a voice, coming from apparently nowhere, startles them, and brings them back from visions of impossible bliss to the present very possible world. To travel here and there, from city to city and village to village, with Mona, would be a far happier arrangement.
