"Ah, my Minnie is a pearl," murmured Wharton, looking tenderly back at her. "You seem to be much attached to each other," said Clary, cordially. "Oh, my lady, how could it be otherwise? We have not been separated from each other since twenty years; we have common remembrances which we can never forget." "If I am not mistaken, you said before that Mrs. Wharton was a widow?"
But indeed, Bella, I can bear no longer this repetition of the worst part of yesterday's conversation: I desire I may throw myself at my father's and mother's feet, and hear from them what their sentence is. I shall at least avoid, by that means, the unsisterly insults I meet with from you. Hey-day! What, is this you? Is it you, my meek sister Clary?
"Clary, dear; don't you like Ralph?" she asked. "No. That is; oh yes, I like him, of course. My head aches and I'll go to bed." "Wait a few minutes, Clary. Something has disturbed you. Has it not?" "Everything disturbs me." "But if there is anything special, won't you tell me?" There had been something very special, which Clarissa certainly would not tell. "What has he said to you?
The following day I paid my debts, which amounted to about two hundred ducats, and I made preparations for starting for Breslau, the day after, with Count Clary, each of us having his own carriage. Clary was one of those men to whom lying has become a sort of second nature; whenever such an one opens his mouth, you may safely say to him, "You have lied, or you are going to lie."
Lovel; I know the man thoroughly, and I never saw him pay any woman attention before. Perhaps the poor fellow is scarcely conscious of his own infatuation yet, but the fact is no less certain. He has betrayed himself to me ever so many times by little speeches he has let fall about our dear Clary. I think even the daughter begins to see it." "And what then, my kind friend?" asked Mr.
Coucou was ready to answer, but the wool threads prevented him, and while Madame Caraman again broke out laughing, and Clary, below in the garden, suffered from suffocation, because she felt obliged to suppress her laughter in order not to betray her presence, the Zouave breathlessly gasped: "One drop of water I suffocate!" Madame Caraman was not cruel.
"It will take me a month or two to recover the effects of those abominable steamers. The Rhine and the Danube will keep, my dear Clary. The castled crag of Drachenfels can be only a little mouldier for the delay, and I believe the mouldiness of these things is their principal charm." So Clarissa waited.
"He always was, and I declare I think that Patience and Clary have been the better for it. They have learned things of which they would have known nothing had he been with them every morning and evening. I don't know any girls who are so sweet as they are. You know they have been like sisters to me." "So I have been told." "And when you came, it would have been like another sister coming; only "
I am going to the East, Clary; to Constantinople, and Athens, and all the world of fable and story, and you are going with me you and young Lovel.
"If bad reading is an abomination to you, you have only to open your ears. I have some confidence in you, Clary," Mr. Lovel went on, with a smile that was almost affectionate. "You look like a sensible girl; a little impulsive, I daresay; but knowledge of the world which is an uncommonly hard world for you and me will tone that down in good time. You are accomplished, I hope.
