"Of course I'll drive with Papa I'm sure Newland will find something to do," May said, in a tone that gently reminded her husband of his lack of response. It was a cause of constant distress to Mrs. Welland that her son-in-law showed so little foresight in planning his days.
"I thought you knew my friend Mr Newland?" observed Atkinson, rather fiercely. "Oh! really I quite I beg pardon. Good morning, Mr Newland; you have been long absent. I did not see you at Lady Maelstrom's last night." "No," replied I, carelessly, "nor will you ever. When you next see her ladyship, ask her, with my compliments, whether she has had another fainting fit."

When you next see her ladyship, ask her, with my compliments, whether she has had another fainting fit."
I appeal to your ladyship, was not your first attachment the most delightful are not the reminiscences most lasting do you not, even now, call to mind those halcyon days when love was all and every thing?" "My days of romance are long past, Mr Newland," replied her ladyship; "indeed I never had much romance in my composition.
"My first love, Mr Newland; pray what do you mean?" replied her ladyship, looking very hard at me. "Your ladyship need not be ashamed of it. Our hearts are not in our own keeping, nor can we always control our passions. I have but to mention the name of Warrender." "Warrender!" shrieked her ladyship.
I could not deny that Mr Masterton's arguments had demolished the whole fabric which I had built up. "You are right, sir," replied I mournfully. "I wish I were dead." "Never speak in that way, Mr Newland, before me," replied the old lawyer in an angry tone, "without you wish to forfeit my good opinion." "I beg your pardon, sir; but I am most miserable.
"Yet did I not imagine that, in so short a time, thou wouldst have dismissed the apparel of our persuasion, neither do I find it seemly." "Miss Temple," interposed Mr Masterton, "it is to oblige those who are his sincere friends, that Mr Newland has laid aside his dress.
My heart beat almost as hard against my ribs with excitement. "Is her ladyship at home?" "Yes, sir." I was ushered into the drawing-room, and found her sitting with two of her nieces, the Misses Fairfax. "Mr Newland, you have been quite a stranger," said her ladyship, as I walked up to her and made my obeisance.
I could forgive his suspicions of Mr Newland in that plight; but as for his taking me for one of the swell mob it proves a great deficiency of judgment; perhaps he will commit your lordship also, as he may not be aware that your lordship's person is above caption."
"Mr Newland, madam, is the person to whom you are indebted for your present happiness. I will now, if you please, take my leave, and will call upon you to-morrow." "I will not detain you, Mr Masterton; but Mr Newland will, I trust, come home with Cecilia and me; I have much to ask of him."
