"Well, I didn't," says Rodney. "There were moments, indeed, when I believed in you; but five minutes ago, when you flung me over so decidedly, and refused to have anything to do with me, I lost faith in you, and began to think you a thorough-going coquette like all the rest. How I wronged you, my dear love! I should have known that under no circumstances could you be untruthful." "No," with a little flickering smile, that has pain and sorrow in it; "for the simple reason that I shall never marry." "No, I am not. Anything but that; and to be rude"—slowly—"answers no purpose.

Over many fields they travel, until at length they reach the mountain's summit and gaze down upon the beauteous scene below. Not long after this, once in the night, this man told his wife to do something, and when she did not begin at once he picked up a brand from the fire and raised it—not that he intended to strike her with it, but he made as if he would—when all at once she vanished and was never seen again. "I haven't," says Geoffrey. But at this break in my history, almost as he forms this resolution, an event occurs that brings friends to Mona, and changes in toto the aspect of affairs..
