For he could only imagine that Doris had reconsidered her refusal of the invitation which had originally included them both, and either tired of being left alone, or angry with him for not writing had devised this coup de main, this violent shake to the kaleidoscope. But what an extraordinary step! It could only cover them both with ridicule. His cheeks were already burning.
The next morning, as usual, what had been resolved on in intoxication was reconsidered by sober heads; after several opinions had been given, Phanes asked permission to speak, and spoke I should think for an hour. But how well! It was as if every word he said came direct from the gods. He has learnt our language in a wonderfully short time, but it flowed from his lips like honey.
If Mr Hawke had stopped here he would have almost said enough; as he scanned the faces turned towards him, and saw the impression he had made, he was perhaps minded to bring his sermon to an end before beginning it, but if so, he reconsidered himself and proceeded as follows.

In the flickering light of the fire he spread the paper and read laboriously: "Chance followed me to the Concho because I made him come. He showed that he didn't want to stay. I let him go.
