First introduced by Sir Walter Raleigh," murmurs Lady Lilias, musingly. "Too modern, but no doubt correct and in keeping. Your uncle, then,"—looking at Mona,—"is beyond question an earnest student of our faith."，"I've been working on my panel study," she said, with an effort at brightness. "I don't seem to get it finished to my liking, and the time is getting perilously short, you know."，Mr. Whitney was silent a minute as he thought over Jerry’s plea for the captive.，"It would be wonderful if you did make a success of it," said Elinor, beginning to put her newly acquired implements into her locker.
