The bedroom of Maurice was on the ground floor and the windows looked out onto a little lawn, which was girdled by thick trees in which the nightingales were singing. The sorrowful songs of the birds, flitting in the moonlight and amid the cloistral dusk of the trees, seemed to Jen like a requiem over the young life which had passed away. The major was broken-hearted by the sorrow which had come upon him, and when he issued from the chamber of death he looked years older than when he entered it. It seemed to his big loving heart as though the woman he loved had died anew in the person of her son.,Mrs. Dallas, closing her eyes, continued rocking herself to and fro, saying but one word in answer.,"Dido!" repeated Lady Meg, thoughtfully. "I have heard Mr. Alymer and Mr. Sarby talking about her. A negress, is she not?",She came and stood behind Patricia, her hands on her shoulders, eager and interested.,"I shall!" said David, and rose also.，"I can, however," said Jen, grimly. "Oh, it is just as I thought."，"How did you obtain it?"，"Not Dido.

I have detailed a housemaid as nurse, and she knows what to do. I'll come back again in the morning and see if he has recovered his senses.",Outside Etwald found Dido waiting for him. He looked at her significantly.,"That is beyond my powers.",Judith pulled herself free from Elinor's circling arms and made for the door, pausing on the threshold.,Elinor's face was perplexed.
