She saw, unregardfully, a man and woman with him, but all her eagerness, all her straining vision was on the young girl with him a girl so blonde, so beautiful that a pang went to Maria Angelina's heart. She learned pain in a single throb. She heard Cousin Jim quoting oddly in undertone, "'And Beauty drew him, by a single hair," and the words entered her consciousness hauntingly.
