"And here I am!" she laughed, completely understanding. "I think we're like those two in The Cloister and the Hearth.
She seemed to have an idea, but Billy was certain it was not his idea. He hastened to clarify the light he had tried to cast upon his upsetting little countrywoman. "All life, you know, is an adventure to the American girl," he generalized.
