As he spoke, he took Anthea's left hand, drawing it out into the moonlight, so that Small Porges could see the shining ring upon her finger. "Oh!" said he, nodding his head, "then that makes it all right I s'pose. An' you aren't angry with me 'cause I let a great, big gnome come an' carry you off, are you, Auntie Anthea?" "No, dear." "Why then, everything's quite magnif'cent, isn't it?
And so, my dears, your happiness is my happiness and Oh, goodness me! here I stand talking sentimental nonsense while our Small Porges is simply dropping asleep as he stands." "'Fraid I am a bit tired," Small Porges admitted, "but it's been a magnif'cent night.
I only thought you were jest a bit hard, 'cause it is such a magnif'cent night, isn't it?" "Yes dear; and perhaps there are gnomes, and pixies about. Anyhow, we can pretend there are, if you like, as we used to " "Oh will you? that would be fine! Then, please, may I go with you as far as the brook?
"Come!" said she, speaking now in a vastly different tone, "it must be getting very late " "Yes, I s'pecks it'll soon be nine o'clock, now!" he nodded. "Then you ought to be in bed, fast asleep instead of talking such nonsense, out here. So come along at once, sir!" "But, can't I stay up jest a little while? You see " "No!" "You see, it's such a magnif'cent night!
I'm so awful glad you wouldn't be frightened. A course, I don't s'pose there are gnomes I mean great, big ones, really, you know, but there might be, on a magnif'cent night, like this. If you shiver again Auntie you'll have to take my coat!" "I thought I heard a horse galloping hush!"
