Don't you worry any more; she'll be all right they wouldn't dare to harm a hair of her head." Mrs. Chadron looked at him with large hope and larger trust in her yearning face, and Banjo slewed his horse directly across the gate. "Before you leave, Saul, I want to tell you this," he said.

Her kindly eyes were promptly lit with all a good woman's sympathy.

It was true, as he acquired knowledge and language, that he was drawing nearer, talking her speech, discovering ideas and delights in common; but this did not satisfy his lover's yearning.
