"I throw out the most tempting of all possible flies, and you absolutely refuse to rise to it." Manvers considered.
Percy could speak to her as often as he pleased of his brother and Mary, and ever found sympathy and interest attached to the subject. Thus the idea of travelling alone, when his sister's family offered such attractions, became absolutely irksome to him, and he was pleased to see that his plan of joining them was not disagreeable to Miss Manvers.

The little girl watched the passers-by, holding her needle listlessly in her fingers, and presently cried out, "Did you see that lady, mamma? How oddly she was dressed."
