But that she masked it in modestie, Now during this day there had been blowing a warm wind which had melted the snow, so that the prairie was covered with water, yet this young man's moccasins and leggings were dry.

Without doubt, therefore, there is good reason to rejoice over Mrs. Geoffrey. "I dare say it is; but the fact remains. I don't know what is the matter with me. It is a barren feeling,—a longing, it may be, for something I can never obtain.".
