Joel, as soon as he rose the next morning, tapped at the door of his sister's room, and being anxious to divert her thoughts, which were likely to be more melancholy than ever on such a day, he proposed that they should walk about the town until breakfast-time, and Hulda, to please her brother, consented.
Passing inside the Chausey Islands, breakfast-time the next morning found us off the town, in the harbour of which we saw a number of small fishing and coasting craft, but nothing of importance; we therefore hauled up to the westward, set our topgallantsails, and boarded the fore and main tacks, in order to work out clear of Brehat and secure a good offing; for the glass was dropping, the breeze freshening, there was a "greasy" look about the sky to windward that seemed to portend a blow, and we were on a lee-shore.
"I'll keep my admiration till we are well out at sea." "And that will be at breakfast-time to-morrow morning, gentlemen. I should not mind turning in for good myself. As it is, I'm just going down to snatch a couple of hours before Dellow comes and rouses me up."
But it was not so with Amy. She was afraid of herself, and was in extremes. She would not come down till the last moment, that there might be no talking in the window. She hardly spoke at breakfast-time, and adhered closely to Laura and Eveleen when they wandered in the garden. Presently Charles looked out from the dressing-room window, calling, 'Amy, Guy is ready to read. 'I can't come.
'Sir Knight, I feel not the least alarm, No son of Erin will offer me harm For tho' they love woman and golden store, Sir Knight, they love honour and virtue more! Thomas Moore. "This is an anniversary," said Salemina, coming into the sitting-room at breakfast-time with a book under her arm.
'By breakfast-time, said Dick, but still not over-graciously. 'Nothing could be better; that will give us a long day, and I should like a full discussion with your father. You'll manage to send me on to what's the name? 'Moate. 'Moate. Yes; that's the place. The up-train leaves at midnight, I remember. Now that's all settled.
"Ah, well, I can't remember, but it was very kind of you I do thank you very much. Do you think you could find me something to eat? I beg your pardon it isn't breakfast-time, of course, but I was never so hungry in my life!" "In a minute, M'sieu' in one minute. But lie down, you must lie down a little. You got up too quick, and it makes your head throb. You have had nothing to eat."
Why people, because they are in a steamboat, should get up so deucedly early I cannot understand. Let the wags laugh on; but a far pleasanter occupation is to sleep until breakfast-time, or near it. The tea, and ham and eggs, which, with a beefsteak or two, and three or four rounds of toast, form the component parts of the above-named elegant meal, are taken in the River Scheldt.
I tried to speak lightly to our worthy landlady, but I was myself somewhat uneasy when through the long night I still from time to time heard the dull sound of his tread, and knew how his keen spirit was chafing against this involuntary inaction. At breakfast-time he looked worn and haggard, with a little fleck of feverish color upon either cheek.
She worried herself to such a degree that when breakfast-time came, her appetite, usually small, had almost reached vanishing-point. The cause of her flutterings was striding along the red dusty road, Lynn and Max having all they could do to keep up with him. He, too, had had his moment of disappointment.
