He is now travelling his happy time my Chillon ! There came a radiance on her under-eyelids. There was no weeping. Struck by the contrast between the two simultaneous honeymoons, and a vision of the high-spirited mountain girl, seen in this place a young bride seeking her husband, Gower Woodseer could have performed that unphilosophical part. He had to shake himself.
To quote Bob again: "People go on honeymoons to be lonesome, and if anybody can find a better place to be lonesome in than Athens, let him trot it out." The third grievance held an element of publicity particularly galling to a young lady who was known to her friends not only as a daring horsewoman, a crack swimmer and a golf champion, but as a bit of a belle besides.
The only thing to be discovered now was if the young athlete's emotions were at the same ebb, and then what was there against plain sailing to the happy port where honeymoons are spent? Fortune favours the persevering, and next afternoon an opportunity occurred for procuring the desired knowledge.
Love of his art made all his days bright and all his moons honeymoons. When Wyatt Eaton, the artist, was in Millet's home he noticed that when the wife called the artist from his task to his noonday meal, the artist's whole being had so gathered itself into the eye that there was no life left with which to hear. Love lent genius skill.
Perhaps, we ought to seek in the metaphysics of love the reasons for the following proposition, which throws the most vivid light on the question of honeymoons and of Red-moons: THEOREM. Man goes from aversion to love; but if he has begun by loving, and afterwards comes to feel aversion, he never returns to love.
Here were no mothers' quotations of their children's accidental wit, nor husbands' and wives' betrayals of silly sweetnesses of long-gone courtships and honeymoons. Passing from encomiums upon Parson Tombs's powers to the subject of eloquence in general, the allusions were mainly to Edmund Burke, John C. Calhoun, Sargent S. Prentiss, and Lorenzo Dow.
Yes, let's do that, shall we? I always did think honeymoons were rather silly, didn't you?" He smiled in spite of himself. "I daresay they are from some points of view. It is settled, then St. Swithin's Day?" She nodded. "Yes. And we will go straight to Kellerton afterwards, and work like niggers. It won't matter a bit then whether it rains or not. And Noel can spend his holidays with us and help.
It was Barbara who said later to Julia, in a confidential undertone: "You know you've got to write personal notes for every bit of this stuff, Julia, right away? Lots of girls do it on their honeymoons." "Well, I wanted to ask you, Barbara: how do I sign myself to these people I've never seen: 'Yours truly'?" "Oh, heavens, no! 'Sincerely yours' or 'Yours cordially' and make 'em short.
In it is the chief charm of youth and travel and honeymoons. I will not say it is the most valuable thing there is, and it is likely to be about the most transient. But while it lasts it is precious, and inspiring beyond words.
So, perhaps, when we are a little more grown up, we too may begin to understand the reason for our living. I talked to a woman once on the subject of honeymoons. I said, "Would you recommend a long honeymoon, or a Saturday to Monday somewhere?" A silence fell upon her. I gathered she was looking back rather than forward to her answer.
