"That's just the way wi' a' young folk," said Nelly, still laughing; "the lad thinks the lass has some ither body that she likes better than him, and the lass thinks the lad pays mair attention to anither than he does to her; she daurna say a word unless she maybe tak the dorts and misca him; he hesitates to speak for fear he should be refused; and between them they aften contrive to torment ane anither for years, when twa words micht settle the matter, and mak them baith happy.
He tells her of his ambition, but hesitates when she asks him if no gentler dream had tenanted his heart. Aida is the daughter of Ethiopia's king; but she would have the princess believe that her tears are caused by anxiety for Egypt's safety.
"I should be the most unselfish person alive if I did that." She hesitates for a moment, and then, "Do you ever forget yourself?" asks she saucily. She laughs her little saucy air suits her.
