'You will pardon an American's ignorance, but is Prince Aribert a reigning Prince what, I believe, you call in Europe, a Prince Regnant? 'His Highness is not a reigning Prince, nor ever likely to be, answered Dimmock.
'I'll take you to her, my dear Eugen. Prince Aribert put his hands on the other's shoulder, but Eugen shook him off violently, stood up, and then sat down again. Aribert looked at Racksole, and they both looked at Prince Eugen. The latter's face was flushed, and Racksole observed that the left pupil was more dilated than the right.
I am a nobody a Serene Highness who has to pretend to be very important, always taking immense care never to do anything that a Serene Highness ought not to do. Bah! 'But if your nephew, Prince Eugen, were to die, would you not come to the throne, and would you not then have these responsibilities which you so much desire?

If Jules should come back, simply defy him to enter that is all. There are two of you, so you must keep an eye on the former occupiers, if they return, and on Miss Spencer, while I nurse the patient.

'You never saw what? Aribert smiled affectionately on the old fellow. You could perceive that these two, so sharply differentiated in rank, had been intimate in the past, and would be intimate again.
Then your precious Prince Aribert arrives without any suite which I believe is a most peculiar and wicked thing for a Prince to do and moreover I find my daughter on very intimate terms with the said Prince. Then young Dimmock goes and dies, and there is to be an inquest; then Prince Eugen and his suite, who were expected here for dinner, fail to turn up at all 'Prince Eugen has not come?
One afternoon, a fortnight after the recovery of the Hereditary Prince of Posen, Aribert, who was still staying at the Grand Babylon, expressed a wish to hold converse with the millionaire.
