"Vienna! do you think of going to Vienna?" cried Caroline. "Yes," said Legard. "I hate Paris; any place better than this odious city!" and he moved away. Evelyn's eyes followed him sadly and gravely. She remained by Lady Doltimore's side, abstracted and silent for several minutes. "Oh, it is a voluntary offer of Legard's, Lady Doltimore, believe me, I have used no persuasive arts.
You remember, for instance, young Legard? He is here; and, before I met Evelyn, was much at Lady Doltimore's house. I cannot be blind to his superior advantages of youth and person; and there is something striking and prepossessing in the gentle yet manly frankness of his manner, and yet no fear of his rivalship ever haunts me.
The old lady, too, has something to leave, and Caroline had no dowry, not that I care for it; but still marriage is expensive." "By the by, you will want the five thousand pounds you lent me?"

If Doltimore's heart was disappointed, his vanity was pleased at the admiration Caroline excited; and he himself was of an age and temper to share in the pursuits and amusements of his wife.
In the first heat of this determination, he turned towards some young men standing near him, one of whom was about to visit Vienna. She was leaning on Lady Doltimore's arm, and the admiring murmur of his companions caused Legard to turn suddenly round. "You are not dancing to-night, Colonel Legard," said Caroline, glancing towards Evelyn.
