Anything but that; and to be rude"—slowly—"answers no purpose. But I have some common sense, I hope.",She hastens her steps, and runs down hurriedly into the hall below, which is almost as light as day. Turning aside, she makes for the library, and now (and not till now) remembers she has no light, and that the library, its shutters carefully closed every night by the invaluable Jenkins himself, is of necessity in perfect darkness.，"Then get a chair for yourself, at least, as you will not permit me to go to your aid," he entreats. "I am your prisoner,—perhaps," in a low tone, "the most willing captive that ever yet was made."，"You will give me an explanation at once," says Geoffrey, slowly, addressing his cousin. "What brought you here?"，As Mona gazes at him half fearfully, he raises himself suddenly on his elbow, and says, in a tone far stronger than he has yet used,—"Is it worth so much thought?" he says, bitterly.
