Mr Foster placed himself near the lovely Caprioletta, whose artless and innocent conversation had already made an impression on his susceptible spirit. The Reverend Doctor Gaster seated himself in the corner of a sofa near Miss Philomela Poppyseed.
Gaster about it and she is delighted with the idea. She has promised to stock the flower table with the cream of her conservatories.
