Jill had thrown her head back, and was singing jubilantly at the top of her voice. The appositeness of the song had cheered her up. It seemed somehow to make her forebodings rather ridiculous, to reduce them to absurdity, to turn into farce the gathering tragedy which had been weighing upon her nerves. "Then she shook her head, Looked at me and said: 'Poor John! . . ."
Help me out, old man. Let me have my little game. What is normal?" "Why," said Dick, floundering, "I suppose it's what the general run of people think and do. It's keeping to the rules.

"My uncle's playing golf with Mr Iver," remarked Mina. "Tea?" "No; too sick-roomy. I'm for nothing but strong drink now and I've had some."

I felt the appositeness of his allusion; and the old couple were forthwith officially denominated Monsieur and Madame Denis, for their resemblance to the hero and heroine of the song though which was Monsieur, and which Madame, I'm not sure that I ever clearly knew. It was a little after this that I was taken for the first time in my life to the play.
