Suddenly Cyril yielded. "All right, Mrs. Plover, all right! It shall be exactly as you choose," he said, in a gentle, humouring tone. He had not called her 'Mrs. Plover' for years.
"Nay, if you're bent upon this folly," observed Wild, who appeared to have his own reasons for humouring the lad, "I shan't hinder you. Blueskin will take care of the horses, and I'll go with you."
"Really, Angelica," he broke off laughingly, "I quite forget every now and again that we are romancing. You must write this story for me.".

He always spoke, and apparently thought, of his violin as a woman, just as a sailor does of his craft.

It was very pleasant to drop back into the old habits of managing the Sunnyside menage making herself indispensable to Selwyn, humouring his wife, and keeping a watchful eye on Molly.
