Dorothy was very anxious, of course, that this young girl should be invited; but Iris put in a demurrer at once. "Of all the girls I ever met, I dislike her the most," declared Iris. She was very careful not to tell the real reason why. This same young girl had been the first to notice her flirtation with Harry Kendal.
Iris perceived this, and as they were just passing the Maeander, the labyrinth, which was closed after sunset, she ordered her bearers to carry the litter to the entrance, made herself known to the watchman, ordered the outer court to be opened, the litter to be placed there, and the bearers and runners to wait outside for her summons, which would soon be given.
If Iris, in "Odyssean" times, had resigned office and been succeeded by Hermes, why did Achilles pray, not to Hermes, but to Iris? There is nothing in the argument about Hermes and Iris. There is nothing in the facts but the variability of mythical and poetical conceptions. Moreover, the conception of Iris as the messenger certainly existed through the age of the Odyssey, and later.
Was there any relief to his mind in this? was there even amusement? No; he was acting a part, and he found it a hard task to keep up appearances. After a brief and brilliant interval, society knew him no more. Left by himself again, he enjoyed one happy evening in London.

I cannot even squeeze you. By the way, Iris, during the next few days say nothing about our mine." "Oh, why not?" "Just a personal whim. It will please me."

She did not complain, but she went about with a drooping look, somewhat like a little flower which wants water. "Iris is not well," Miss Ramsay said one morning to Mrs. Dolman.
The Baron was well aware of this, and by ingeniously enticing him on board the Iris he succeeded by handing that small bomb concealed in a cigar a Nihilist contrivance that had probably been seized by his police in Finland in freeing himself from the rival who was destined to occupy his post." "Yes," I said with a sigh. "The mystery is cleared up, it is true, yet my poor Elma is still the victim."
In the midst of the hammering and excitement, Captain Coke swung himself up to the bridge. "Well, I'm blowed! You here?" he said, looking at Iris. "Wot is it now?" he asked, turning sharply to Hozier. "Wheel stuck again?" "Yes, sir. Has it happened before?" "Well er not this trip. But it 'as 'appened.
