She had suffered badly during the period of poverty. Nothing, however, could shake the curious sullen, animal pride that dominated each member of the family. Now, for Mabel, the end had come.

Some were changed through the pity of the gods, that they might share the simple life of Pan, mindless of mortal cares, glad in rain and sunshine, and always close to the heart of the Earth. There was Dryope, for instance, the lotus-tree.

"That was all right," Loudons approved, but then his worries returned. "I don't know how we're going to handle this " "Jim, how about that pows business? Is there something there?" "Monty!"
