"Yes; so strong that I should have been less surprised to have seen her name in this letter." "Then he has not got out of that scrape yet," Mohun observed. "That girl comes of the wrong stock to give up any thing she has fancied without a struggle. I knew her father, Dick Bellasys, well.
Miss Bellasys had not practiced it often, being essentially Democritian not to say Rabelaisian in her philosophy; but she did it very well. Like every other emotion, it became her. Guy hardly glanced at her, and never answered a word. She rose to go; then turned all at once to try one effort more. "Yes, we must part," she said. "I know it now. But give me a kind word to take with me.
We had taken two or three turns, when a large party approached us, in the centre of whom I recognized instantly Miss Bellasys. If possible, she looked handsomer than ever as she swept by at a sharp canter, sitting square and firmly, but yielding just enough to the stride of the horse perfectly erect, but inimitably lithe and graceful.
Flora Bellasys strikes her foot angrily with her riding-whip, and turns very pale. Ten lengths behind, the mare comes up, well in hand, and slips through the bulfinch without a mistake hardly with an effort just at the only place where you can see daylight through the blackthorn. What is Guy doing? Even in that thundering fall he has never let the reins go. Horse and rider struggle up together.
It was a rash question, all things considered, and scarcely worthy of the accomplished speaker. There is no more useful maxim in diplomacy than this: Quieta non movere. Ralph faced her directly. "Miss Bellasys, when a lady tells me what I can not believe, I question not her word, but her agent." He was half way down stairs before she could answer or detain him.
To the left is Guy, repressing the attentions of four couple of strong red and white spaniels, but not those of Miss Bellasys, who, standing at the oriel window of the library, is good-natured enough to fasten the band of his wide-awake for him, which has come undone.
In much, I own myself more guilty than you. But this is very different. Miss Bellasys, you must have distrusted greatly your own powers of fascination before you stooped to such cruel treachery." "I did not know what I was doing," she whispered; "I did not know she was dying. Ah! Guy, have pity!" "But you knew it might kill her to find her letter such a letter unanswered.
Honneur au courage malheureux. Let us stand aside in the cloak-room, and salute her as she passes out with all the honors of war. Mrs. Bellasys was a little woman, who always reminded me of a certain tropical monkey name unknown.
Miss Bellasys, who, with her mother, had arrived at Kerton the night before, laid half a point more not in gloves on the heavy-weight. The bell for saddling rang, and the horses came out. The mare stripped beautifully, as fine as a star no wonder her mistress was proud of her; and I think she had, to the full, as many admirers as the Axeine.
She received me very cordially, and I well remember the pleasant impression left on my ear by the first sound of her voice, soft and low as Cordelia's. In these two attributes it resembled that of Flora Bellasys, yet their tones were essentially different as different as is to the taste a draft of pure sparkling water from one of strong sweet wine.
