So Hyde easily became the hero of the hour; he was permitted to teach the girls the charming old-world step of the Pas de Quatre, and afterwards to sing with them merry airs from Figaro, and sentimental airs from Lodoiska, and to make Rem's heart burn with anger at the expression he threw into the famous ballad "My Heart and Lute" which the trio sang twice over with great feeling.
As she entered her room an imposing looking letter met her eyes a letter written upon the finest paper, squarely folded, and closed with a large seal of scarlet wax carrying the Hyde arms.
