"How will it be then?","What a lot of ships!" she cried.,"Because 'the miserable hath no other medicine but only hope,'" quotes she, very sadly.,After a great deal of good-humored bickering and sifting of requests to suit Patricia's repertoire, the tumult gradually quieted and Patricia rose.,"Was ever woman in this humour woo'd?,"By Mrs. Dallas!","I'll sing just one more, and then I'll have to stop," she said with eager brightness.
