Why, he reflected, he too had been foolish once and he blushed a little. Then they went on to talk of Great Keynes, Sir Nicholas, and Mr. Stewart's arrest and death; and Mary asked Anthony to excuse her interest in such matters, but Papistry had always been her religion, and what could a poor girl do but believe what she was taught?
Like all crises it was bigger than speech. It was after a distinct pause that she spoke. "Hast thou brought the police?" Curiously human, curiously masculine at least was Stewart's mental condition at that moment. He had never loved the girl; it was with tremendous relief he had put her out of his life. And yet "So it's old Peter now, is it?" "No, no, not that, Walter.
Pray introduce the lady," said the King, smiling at Angela, whose vivid blush was as fresh as Miss Stewart's had been a year or two ago, before she had her first quarrel with Lady Castlemaine, or rode in Gramont's glass coach, or gave her classic profile to embellish the coin of the realm the "common drudge 'tween man and man."
