But the trial is not successful, and he is almost on the point of flinging up the argument and going home again, when his eye lights upon a fern small but rare, and very beautiful, that growing on a high rock far above him, overhangs the stream.,"And 'he is happier now than he has ever been in all his life before.'

Mona, it is quite evident, fails to see any impropriety in his speech.，"I am afraid you must class me with the ignorant," says Mona, shaking her pretty head. "I know nothing at all about thistles, except that donkeys love them!"，"That is a pretty verse," she says, quietly. "But I do not know the poem. I should like to read it."She shrinks a little from the task, and would fain have evaded it altogether; though there is happiness, too, in the thought that here is an occasion on which she may be of real use to him.
