'Lesbia will be hurt, remonstrated Sara. 'What a little misanthrope you are, Ursula! St. Thomas's has injured you socially; you have become a hermit-crab all at once, and it is such nonsense at your age. 'Oh, let me be, Sara! I pleaded; 'I am tired, and Lesbia always chatters so; and Mrs. Fullerton is worse. Besides, did you not tell me she was coming to dine with us this evening?
The opera was nearly over that grand scene of Valentine's death was on and Lesbia was listening breathlessly to every note, watching every look of the actors, when there came a modest little knock at the door of her box. She darted an angry glance round, and shrugged her shoulders vexatiously. What Goth had dared to knock during that thrilling scene? Mr.
'What a genius you are, Fifine, exclaimed Lady Kirkbank, rapturously. 'The Faute dans le Passé was only produced last week. No one will have thought of copying Chaumont's gowns yet awhile. The idea is an inspiration. 'What is the boating costume like? asked Lady Lesbia, faintly. 'An exquisite combination of simplicity with vlan, answered the dressmaker.

'I will go to Park Lane to meet your people, if Lady Kirkbank likes to take me, said Lesbia; and with this answer Mr. Smithson was bound to be content.
She knew exactly what Lesbia could be trained to do; and to this end Lesbia had been educated; and to this end Lady Maulevrier brought down to Fellside the most accomplished of Hanoverian governesses, who had learned French in Paris, and had toiled in the educational mill with profit to herself and her pupils for a quarter of a century.
Hamilton Hammond, I mean should have the audacity to follow you to Kirkbank, and to intrude himself upon you there perhaps to persecute you with clandestine addresses 'I do not believe he would do anything clandestine, said Lesbia, drawing herself up.
