Mona, rising, pushes Violet gently into her own chair, a little black-and-gold wicker thing, gaudily cushioned. It is a supreme moment.

"'Bonnie Lesley:' the poet says of her what I think of you." "Well, then, I would ask you to harden your heart, because she will say many unpleasant things to you, and will be uncivil to you, simply because she has taken it into her head that you have done her an injury in that you have married Geoffrey!
