As he said to himself afterwards, "It would not do to bring the Bayswater romance too suddenly to its termination!" "But before you go," she continued, "I must say the word to you about that picture. Did you speak to Mr Dalrymple?" "I did not. I have been so busy with different things that I have not seen him." "And now you are going?"
The thing took for a time, and Conway Dalrymple was picking up his gilt sugar-plums with considerable rapidity. On a certain day he and John Eames were to dine out together at a certain house in that Bayswater district.
At first I was stunned. Then my heart was in my mouth and it was as much as I could do not to burst out crying. Finally I wanted to fly, and I turned back to the cab, but it had gone and was already passing round the corner. It was six o'clock. I was very tired. I was nine miles from Bayswater. I could not possibly carry baby back. What could I do? My great-hearted, heroic little woman!
He was most anxious to be able to give himself credit for his constancy to Lily Dale; to be able to feel that he was steadfast in his passion; and yet he liked the idea of amusing himself with his Bayswater romance, as he would call it, and was not without something of conceit as he thought of the progress he had made in it.
You see, they put their wedding presents into it and let it for the season, and managed to live rent free and have the use of other people's motors and all the going about they wanted without paying even for their food ... and no expense of entertaining, outside a dinner or two at Hurlingham....

From this position he saw a pair of hands hanging with a hungry clutch on the top of the fence. Then the hands quivered with a convulsive effort, and a head shot up between them the head of one of the Bayswater Town Council, his eyes and whiskers wild with fear. He swung himself over, and fell on the other side on his face, and groaned openly and without ceasing.
He had, moreover, beaten his old enemy Sir Raffle Buffle in another contest, and he felt that the world was smiling on him; that the world was smiling on him in spite of his cruel fate in the matter of his real lovesuit. There was a mystery about the Bayswater romance which was not without its allurement, and a portion of the mystery was connected with Madalina's mother.
Jorce gave me her address in Bayswater, but when I went there I could not find her; she had left. I then put an advertisement in all the papers, stating that if she called on me she would hear of something to her advantage. Now, Count, it appears that Mrs.
His steps, like his thoughts, pursued a tangled course, and led him into the prosaic brick-and-mortar monotony of Bayswater, but the moon was lavish in her generosity, and strewed his path with glinting strands of light.

To a woman a Purdy and a ten guinea Birmingham gun are just the same, and to a man, a ten guinea Bayswater dress is little different, if worn by a pretty girl, from a seventy guinea Bond Street is it Bond Street rig out. Unless he is a man milliner. Jones said "beautiful," gave the palm to the blue, and watched them carried off again by the maid.
