A fortnight passed, and Grim had only put in the regulation practice at the nets to Wilson's intense disgust, and the time that should have been devoted to extra cricket was "wasted," according to that ardent Biffenite, in doing, of all things, needlessly elaborate translations for Merishall. "Whatever is the good of getting the very word the beak wants, Grimmy. I always translate Carmen a song.
"'Yes! he replied, 'married to Garcia el Tuerto* as cunning a gipsy as she is herself. The poor fellow has been at the galleys. Carmen has wheedled the surgeon of the presidio to such good purpose that she has managed to get her rom out of prison. Faith! that girl's worth her weight in gold.
That's my only resource." When Bizet put on the delightful Pêcheurs de Perles he was helped by powerful influences there was a general outcry and an outbreak of abuse. The Devil himself straight from Hell would not have received a worse reception. Later on, as we know, Carmen was received in the same way.
Thus, about one o'clock in the morning, there was not a very good watch kept on board of the Nostra Senora del Carmen. About four o'clock in the morning, Mesty tumbled forward, and he hit his head against the table, which roused him up.
Carmen and Miss Tavish were often at his house, and there was something reassuring to Jack in the openness with which affairs went on.

In her delicate health the doctor had recommended the seaside, and this locality as quiet and restful, and not too far from the whirl of the city.

It came to him to speak to Carmen, but he knew that he dared not do so. He could not say to a woman that which must shame her before him, she who had kept her head so arrogantly high not so much to him, however, as to the rest of the world. He had not the courage; and yet he had fear lest some awful thing would at any moment now befall the Manor Cartier.
Mavick as naturally shrank from a responsibility that promised to curtail freedom of action in the life she loved. Carmen it was an old saying of the danglers in the time of Henderson was a domestic woman except in her own home.
It was often so, and the omission was usually not allowed to pass by Carmen without notice, to which Henderson was sure to growl that he didn't care to be always on dress parade. Tonight Carmen was all graciousness and warmth. Henderson did not seem to notice it. He ate his dinner abstractedly, and responded only in monosyllables to her sweet attempts at conversation.
Did you suppose that I could be deaf to such a mark of confidence?" Carmen smiled sadly. "Yes," she said, "I do feel entire confidence in you, a confidence that is most real." She seated herself and motioned him to a chair, and with her large eyes fixed on her companion, was silent for a minute. At last she said, abruptly: "Monsieur Goutran, do you love me?"
