"She is your niece, your family have bred her up, made her so much more than exquisitely lovely." "She is a good little girl," said Clement, "but what are we? No, Ivinghoe, I do not blame you for speaking out, and she will be the happier for the knowledge of your affection, but it will not be right of us to give free consent, without being fully assured of that of Lord and Lady Rotherwood."
And Bessie herself, while sitting under the verandah with Lady Merrifield, while all the others were walking down to embark Lord and Lady Ivinghoe in the yacht, suddenly repeated, "Did you say that her name was Magdalen?" "Yes; I saw it startled you, my dear." "It revived an old, old story. I do not know whether there was anything in it. Who or what is she, Aunt Lily?
Ivinghoe, and Alberta, and I. Ivy was general, and I was the sentry, with my umbrella shut up, and over my shoulder. I was the only one who knew how to present arms.
Ivinghoe is naturally as stiff and formal as his mother, I am not much afraid for him, except that no one knows what that fever will make of a young man, and I don't want him to get his father into a scrape. There, I have exhaled it to you, and there is a crowd as if the masque was done with."
"Poor child," said Jane, "she looks like a flower; one is sorry it should be meddled with." "So did my sister Stella, and there, contrary to all our fears, the course of true love did run smooth." "If it depended entirely on Rotherwood himself, I think it would," said Jane, "but- " She paused and went on, "Ivinghoe is, I fear, really volage, and he is the mark of a good many London mammas."
He declared that Francie ought not to have more spent on her than was reserved for her sisters, especially as it would be easy for her to supply all deficiencies, while Alda could not endure that the future Lady Ivinghoe should have an outfit unworthy of her rank, even though both Wilmet and Geraldine undertook to assist.
Accordingly Lady Merrifield repaired to Ivinghoe Terrace for the doctor's visit, and obtained from him the requisite certificate that the patient could not be removed at present.
"Gentlemen and ladies," he said, "no, I mean ladies and gentlemen, I am very much obliged to you all for the honour you have done my sister. I can tell Lord Ivinghoe she is a very good girl, and very nice, and all that, when she is not cocky, and doesn't try to keep one in order." The speech was drowned in laughter, and calls to Ivinghoe to mind what he was about, and beware of the "new woman."
"I only had her telegram half-an-hour ago," said Kalliope, in an apologetic tone; and Lord Ivinghoe was to be dimly seen handing Maura over the fence. Moonlight gardens and moonlight sea! What was to be done? And Ivinghoe, who had begun life by being as exclusive as the Marchioness herself!
'Poetic narcissus -poetic grandmother, said Wilfred. 'It's old butter and eggs. 'I say! cried Mysie. 'Look, Ivy -I know that pair of fighting lions -ain't these some of your arms over the door? 'By which you mean a quartering of our shield, said Ivinghoe. 'Of course it is the Clipp bearing. Or, two lions azure, regardant combatant, their tails couped.
