Such was her excitement at the possibilities of knowledge now opening before her that she ceased to read, and a breeze turning the page, the covers of Gibbon gently ruffled and closed together. She then rose again and walked on. Slowly her mind became less confused and sought the origins of her exaltation, which were twofold and could be limited by an effort to the persons of Mr. Hirst and Mr.
Hirst waits on you once more to see if you can bid him welcome. It ought to be seriously considered, that your drawing back from him after all that has passed between you, will be to your Prejudice; and will tend to discourage persons of worth from making their Court to you.
Hirst exclaimed after a moment's pause. "They're so amazingly unscrupulous. None of us would dare to behave as that woman behaves." "What I like about them," said Helen as she sat down, "is that they're so well put together. Naked, Mrs. Flushing would be superb. Dressed as she dresses, it's absurd, of course." "Yes," said Hirst. A shade of depression crossed his face.
"I don't think you altogether as foolish as I used to, Hewet," said Hirst. "You don't know what you mean but you try to say it." "But aren't you enjoying yourself here?" asked Hewet. "On the whole yes," said Hirst. "I like observing people. I like looking at things. This country is amazingly beautiful. Did you notice how the top of the mountain turned yellow to-night?
Oh, I got scholarships everywhere Westminster King's. I'm now a fellow of King's. Don't it sound dreary? Two brothers and one sister. I'm a very distinguished young man," he added. "One of the three, or is it five, most distinguished men in England," Hewet remarked. "Quite correct," said Hirst. "That's all very interesting," said Helen after a pause.
"It's like a starlit sky on an absolutely cloudless night," Hewet murmured, looking about him, at the airy empty room. "A heavenly floor, anyhow," Evelyn added, taking a run and sliding two or three feet along. "What about those curtains?" asked Hirst. The crimson curtains were drawn across the long windows. "It's a perfect night outside."
He nodded his head at the tables where a very miscellaneous collection of Europeans were now engaged in eating, in some cases in gnawing, the stringy foreign fowls. Hewet looked, and grew more out of temper than ever. Hirst looked too. His eyes fell upon Rachel, and he bowed to her. "I rather think Rachel's in love with me," he remarked, as his eyes returned to his plate.
"My temper is good on the whole, and health excellent, though Hirst detects a gouty tendency. Well, then, I think I'm very intelligent." He paused as if for confirmation. Helen agreed. "Though, unfortunately, rather lazy. I intend to allow Rachel to be a fool if she wants to, and Do you find me on the whole satisfactory in other respects?" he asked shyly.
Her lovely Mite is a typical example of a small Pomeranian of this colour. He was bred by Mr. Hirst, by Little Nipper ex Laurel Fluffie, and scales only 4-1/4 lb. Mention should also be made of Miss Ives' Dragon Fly, Mrs. Boutcher's Lady Wolfino, Miss Bland's Marland Topaz, Mr. Walter Winans' Morning Light, and Mr. Fowler's May Duchess.
Hirst woke up; they were then called to luncheon, and while they ate it, the steamer came to a standstill a little way out from the bank. The boat which was towed behind them was brought to the side, and the ladies were helped into it. For protection against boredom, Helen put a book of memoirs beneath her arm, and Mrs.
