At the kindliness of the tone an aching knot in the boy's throat relaxed. He began to talk hurriedly, in a desperate whisper, his hands like little birds' claws gripping the other's great gauntleted fist.
Shameless love is always young; with years comes discretion, perhaps loss of confidence. The Crusaders were youths, pursuing an idea to the ends of the earth and flaunting a lady's guerdon from spear or saddle-bow.

The hands of his watch pointed to ten thirty when he entered the flat, and it was near eleven when he rode up to the cabin door to find Miss Radford arrayed in riding skirt, dainty boots, gauntleted gloves, blouse, and soft felt hat awaiting him at the door.
