I am glad to obey you. I shall not go to Ryan's house again.","Name it!" exclaims she, seeing he still hesitates.,"Happy?" reproachfully. "I shan't know a happy moment until I see you again!","But I have to do with him," says Mona, distinctly.，And could not if they durst,'，"What luck to find you here," says Geoffrey, stooping over the industrious spinner, and (after the slightest hesitation) kissing her fondly in spite of the presence of the old woman, who is regarding them with silent curiosity, largely mingled with admiration. The ancient dame sees plainly nothing strange in this embrace of Geoffrey's but rather something sweet and to be approved. She smiles amiably, and nods her old head, and mumbles some quaint Irish phrase about love and courtship and happy youth, as though the very sight of these handsome lovers fills her withered breast with glad recollections of bygone days, when she, too, had her "man" and her golden hopes. For deep down in the hearts of all the sons and daughters of Ireland, whether they be young or old, is a spice of romance living and inextinguishable.，"Why?" demands her mistress, somewhat haughtily.
