Shortly I shall insist upon an explanation."，"Well, really!" says Mona, mistaking him. She moves back with a heightened color, disengages her hands from his and frowns slightly.，"Eh, but this is bad news!" says old Scully, evidently terrified and disheartened by his niece's words.

Dear Emilia, adieu!—You will always be the sister of my heart—may you never be the partner of my misfortunes!',"Oh not for ever so long," returns she, with much and heartless unconcern.
