It seemed to us accidental when Foedric had dropped in upon us and chosen a seat next to Antonia, but it soon became evident that we had not witnessed even that kind of an accident. What was exhibited to us there, among that highly developed people, was a genuine, old-fashioned, new-fashioned love affair.
As we all happened to be listening to these two at that moment, Foedric looked up to our host and said: "Thorwald, do you think Antonia and I had better try to reform the customs of the world, and do away with all verbal expression of our attachment, on the ground that it is unnecessary and only a waste of breath?"
Thorwald selected one of medium size, and as we approached, whom should we find in charge but our young friend Foedric? In answer to Thorwald's question, he told us that both he and his vessel were at our service, and we proceeded to mount to our seats in the car. Foedric pulled a small lever, and we began to rise.
You and I will be lovers from this time forth, and give the people of Mars an example of devotion worth considering, will we not?" "You do make the funniest speeches," she replied. "I don't know half the time what you mean. But I am getting tired of sitting so long. Here is Antonia. You talk to her about love, and I'll go over and see Foedric."
We will love each other and love everybody else just the same, and you must promise not to look disturbed any more when I am talking with Foedric; but you have been very good about that of late." "I will promise," I answered; "but what will you do if you find I am loving another person more than you?" "Oh, I cannot understand what you mean by loving more and loving less.
Useless, cruel, inhuman war must cease, with all strife and hatred and envy and bitter feeling; and then shall you begin to see the full measure of beauty in the song of the angels of which you have told us, and 'Peace on earth' will be a blessed fact and not a prophecy. Thorwald, I have finished." "You have spoken well, Foedric," said Thorwald. "And now, what wise counsel will you give, Proctor?"
I controlled myself enough to ask: "And what did Foedric say?" "Why, his answer made me laugh more than yours did. He said it would make you unhappy to know I had said such a thing to him. I replied that I would tell you myself, and that you were always happy when I said anything to you; and then you came up just in time."
"I was only going to suggest that, if you love Foedric, Antonia may not like you so well." Foedric began to protest that Antonia would not care, but Mona went right on with: "Another complication. What possible difference could it make to Antonia?" "Why, Antonia and Foedric love each other, you know." "Oh, they love each other, and therefore no one else can love either of them. Is that it?
"Why, you see," she replied, "Foedric was the first one to find me after you were hurt, and has been very kind to me since, and I have just been telling him I love him. You said it made you happy to hear me say it to you, and I wanted to make him happy too. And then I wanted to see if Foedric would make such funny speeches as you did."
I expect in a short time we can merely fall to its surface." This suggested to Thorwald the very trouble that the doctor and I had encountered with our balloon, and he asked Foedric if we could get away again after we had dropped to the moon. "Yes," Foedric answered, "I am sure we have power enough here to overcome the attraction and get away whenever we please."
