There were many vine-embowered retreats about the place where those who did not wish to dance might talk softly in the blue shadows of Grecian urns with star-shine and moon-mist for their tête-
Helena observed three cottages crouching under the hill and under trees to cover themselves from the magic of the moonlight. 'We certainly did not come this way before, she said triumphantly.
