They promptly gave her the palm, although they did not turn pale, nor lose their breath. "The grand style," said Trennahan.
About six o'clock that evening we caught sight of the top of the Jensen bridge; then, as we neared the village, the sun broke through the pall of cloud and mist, and a rainbow appeared in the sky above, and was mirrored in the swollen stream, rainbow and replica combined nearly completing the wondrous arc.
"I am quite aware," said Smith, "and I will be sure to send you a replica, with photographs. Also I promise to leave the original to some museum by will." The Director clasped the image tenderly, and, holding it to the light, read the broken cartouche beneath the breasts. "'Ma-Me, Great Royal Lady. Beloved of Beloved of whom? Well, of Smith, for one.
