It was an admirable sight, truly, to see that still lovely woman, using all the persuasion of her gentle rhetoric, all the eloquence of her warm feelings and just mind, devoting herself for days and days, to the labour of leading such a spirit as that of Marble's to entertain just and humble view's of his own relation to the Creator and his Son, the Saviour of men.
"Please, papa, do say I may." "Yes, since you are so desirous," he said, in an indulgent tone. Max came hurrying in. "We can go up now, papa," he said; "the others have come down." Edward and Zoe were just behind the boy. "Oh, you ought all to go up," cried the latter; "the view's just splendid."
As she moved along the path in front of him, she called back: "We're up here in the barn, our castle on the hill. It mayn't look much from the outside, but it's roomy and the view's fine. Better than being crowded into the houses with the people sleeping on the floors. They'd have taken us in, any of 'em, but we chose the barn quieter and more air. My pa's with me."
Marvellous weather and the view's marvellous views westward to the high ground. Thank you for your letter. Burn this. Your affectionate Helen Dearest, dearest Meg, I do not know what you will say: Paul and I are in love the younger son who only came here Wednesday. Margaret glanced at her sister's note and pushed it over the breakfast-table to her aunt.
"It is!" cried the officer, standing in his stirrups, and smiling fondly at a point where, some three miles away by the line of sight, a dark roof crowned by a white-railed lookout peeped over the tree-tops. "It's Rosemont my own Rosemont! The view's been opened by cutting the woods off that hill this side of it. Come!"
He'd applauded me far too much to her, and 'tis always a fatal fact in human nature, that if you hear a fellow-creature praised up to the sky, your mind takes an instant set against 'em. No. There's no doubt that a man's opinions change with his business, because the point of view's just everything.
With that she stopped her ears, and shook her head from side to side, to intimate to Mr Dennis that though he talked until he had no breath left, she was as deaf as any adder. 'Lookee here, my sugar-stick, said Mr Dennis, 'if your view's the same as mine, and you'll only be quiet and slip away at the right time, I can have the house clear to-morrow, and be out of this trouble.
"No, don't hurry," his host shouted back. "Take your own time, it's safest. Once you get to the top you'd better walk along the whole cliff path to Kynance. They tell me its splendid; the view's so wide; and you can easily get back across the moor by lunch-time. Only, mind about the edge, and whatever you do, let no stones roll over."
The nurseries are along there. And this is Jo's and his wife's. They all communicate. But you remember, I expect." Irene nodded. They passed on, up the gallery and entered a large room with a small bed, and several windows. "This is mine," he said. The walls were covered with the photographs of children and watercolour sketches, and he added doubtfully: "These are Jo's. The view's first-rate.
