Marsworth assisted her; while Cicely took a chair beside Nelly, and talked exclusively to her, in a low voice.

But now it was all changed, and he lay on the grass and longed for her coming; which was delayed for somewhat more than an hour.
She was younger, by two or three years, than her companion; her complexion was fairer; her long golden hair fell nearly to her waist, enfolding her like a magnificent, shining garment; her eyes were blue and large and set far apart; and there was in them, and in the whole contour of the face, a look of honesty and dignity, and calm intelligence, rarely witnessed in the countenance of woman.
