Isn't it heavenly to think that we shall be together now all the rest of our lives? Biddy, I was thinking ... if if ever we have a son I should like to call him Peter Reid. Would you mind?" "My darling!" "It wouldn't go very well with the Quintins and the Reginalds and all the other names, but it would be a sort of Thank you to the poor rich man who was so kind to me."
Do you say that you, in his shoes, would have done better? that you would never have lost courage? that you would have held up your head still, and braved the storm? Alas, alas, that the Reginalds are so many and the heroes of your sort so few! Alas for the sensitive natures whom injustice can crush and make cowards of! You are not sensitive, thank God, and you do not know what crushing is.
"But, taking the other circumstances into consideration, I am inclined to record my vote in favour of Sir Reginalds suggestion." "Then let that decide it," remarked the colonel; "I am sure we shall have no cause to regret the choice." The Baffin's Bay route was accordingly agreed upon; and the ship's head was forthwith laid in a west-north-westerly direction for Cape Farewell.
