"I think very often we have to find our way in the dark," she said dreamily. "I think I remember about that. But," she went on, with a complete change of voice, her eyes dancing merrily as if they had never looked grave in their life, "it's not dark now, Chéri, and it's going to be ever so bright. Just look at the lovely moon through the trees. Do let us go now.
A toi, mon cheri. PS. There's rather a dear man living fairly close to Rumfold, old Sir James Devereux. His house is Blandford a magnificent old place; almost if not quite as fine as Rumfold, and the grounds are bigger.
The plan she had adopted with regard to Prince Cheri was one of the most certain, for the dancing-water was not easily to be obtained; it was so notorious from the misfortunes which occurred to all who sought it, that every one knew the road to it. He was eight days without taking any repose but in the woods.
"Oh, how pretty!" said Hugh, with a deep sigh of pleasure. "It is like the lamps, only much prettier. I think, Jeanne, this must be the country of pretty colours." "This forest is called the Forest of the Rainbows. I know that," said Jeanne. "But I don't think they call this the country of pretty colours, Chéri. You see it is the country of so many pretty things.
They are so nice and funny. Just look at those peacocks, Jeanne. They are lovely." Jeanne still shook her head. "I don't think so," she said. "I can't bear those peacocks. But I'm very glad you like them, Chéri." "I wish it was moonlight to-night," continued Hugh. "I don't think I should go to sleep at all. I would lie awake watching all the pictures.
It is the business of mothers to pick up those poor lads, and give them a good word. Well, you must replace the mothers, you, mon chéri, you must do all you can do the impossible to help. I see you running creeping along looking for the wounded. If I could only be there too! Yes, it is my place, mon petit, near you. Courage, courage!
I saw him already in midsummer, drenched with cold rains, chilled and perishing; but sharper eyes than mine had marked his flight, and a pair of swift hands plunged after him into the long grass that tangled his wings and kept him back from headlong destruction. Amicable relations between Cheri and the cat are on a most precarious footing.
The Corsair's wife, whose name was Corsine, was enchanted at this, and loved the four infants so much the more for it. She named the Princess, Belle-Etoile, her eldest brother, Petit-Soleil, the second, Heureux, and the son of Brunette, Cheri. As they grew older, the Corsair applied himself seriously to their education, as he felt convinced there was some great mystery attached to their birth.
So it was, or at least into something which looked just like it. "Chéri," Jeanne went on, her eyes dancing with excitement, "I do believe this is another way into Fairyland, or into some other queer place like what we've seen. Come on, quick." The children seized hold of each other's hands, and hurried up the stair.
Julie never looked more beautiful, more radiant, than she did now; and there was a wonderful heartfelt fondness in her voice when she cried, "Mon homme! mon homme! seul homme au monde a mon coeur, Gustave, cheri adore! I have found thee-at last at last!" Gustave gazed upon her, stupefied.
