I dare not turn back, and I am half afraid to go on. Ha glory to the Virgin! dragoons, ay, and, as I see now, they are escorting Lord Arlington's coach. Have we not the luck of thousands?"
If our time was short, the greater the necessity for crowding enjoyment into its every moment, he said: we could spare none of it for lamentations. "Now, Aunt Nancy," he continued, "if I am not mistaken, you can match Mr. Arlington's story with one quite as romantic, of an extraordinary marriage in high life.
