'They crack the City bubbles and bladders, at all events, Mr. Fenellan said.

He blinked at it, as it came nearer, and then, oh, how they laughed, he began to back away from it. It overtook him, however, and landed squarely on his upturned nose. He sneezed in disgust, and rubbed his nose violently with his paw. "Oh, Mortimer darling, I won't do it again. If you don't like soap bubbles, you needn't have them," said Polly, picking him up, and caressing him.

The big ledges and lowering, lesser peaks lifted into the dark sky weirdly translucent, and their upper edges seemed smooth and graceful as the rims of bubbles.

It was all miraculously beautiful, and the sore-hearted man lifted his eyes to the heights seeing the face of a girl in every moonlit rock and in every wayside pool.
