"Shall we come home again from the other countries?" asked Billy. "Of course, sonny! The little Beresfords must come back and grow up with their own country." "Am I a little Beresford, mother?" asked Francie, looking wistfully at her brother as belonging to the superior sex and the eldest besides. "Certainly." "And is the Sally-baby one too?" Himself laughed unrestrainedly at this.
I may confess to you what I have never yet acknowledged now that we are so widely parted, and so little likely to meet again whenever I have given myself up unrestrainedly to my own better impulses, they have always seemed to lead me to you.
Instead of watching and following on its ways the desire which, as Plato says, "for ever through all the universe tends towards that which is lovely," we think that the world has settled its accounts with this desire, knows what this desire wants of it, and that all the impulses of our ordinary self which do not conflict with the terms of this settlement, in our narrow view of it, we may follow unrestrainedly, under the sanction of some such text as "Not slothful in business," or, "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with all thy might," or something else of the same kind.

What is the meaning of that; he is gone like the mist of the morning like a dream of the night, and he will never return, and if he did return it could never be anything to me!"

They coveted these moments with a greediness that was almost sinful. On many nights Grace would whisper to Hugh at the dinner table and would creep quietly on deck, meal half finished, where he would join her like a thief. Then they would hide from interruption as long as possible. One night they enjoyed themselves more unrestrainedly than ever before in their lives.
I do not mean, of course, to make the foolish statement that present-day industrialism is unrestrainedly individualistic: thank God it is not that.
