Algernon, 'You know what I'm come for. I never did behold a gentleman so pale shot all over his cheeks as he was, and pinkish under the eyes; if you've ever noticed a chap laid hands on by detectives in plain clothes. Smack at Bob went Mr. Edward's whip." "Mr. Algernon's," Stephen was corrected. "Mr. Edward's, I tell ye the cousin. And right across the face. My Lord! it made my blood tingle."
After this exhibition of foresight on the part of the jeweller, there was no more fight in Algernon beyond a strenuous "Faugh!" of uttermost disgust. He examined the bill and receipt in the man's hand with great apparent scrupulousness; not, in reality, seeing a clear syllable.
Expense was nothing, but she should never be happy till she had an Englishwoman about him, especially now that she was getting better, and Algernon would want her to come out again with him. Dear Algernon, he had lost the Easter at Rome for her sake, but perhaps it was a good thing, for he was often out in Lord Belraven's yacht, and she could be quiet with baby.
She had no will either way, and suffered herself to be led out of the box, supported by the two young men. "Run for a cab," said Edward; and Algernon went ahead.

The honeymoon is Mahomet's minute; or say, the Persian King's water-pail that you read of in the story: You dip your head in it, and when you draw it out, you discover that you have lived a life.
