One felt it as one feels the beauty of a summer's dawn breaking the shadows of a sleeping city, but one cannot set it down. I often met her, and, when talking to her, I knew myself I, hack-journalist, frequenter of Fleet Street bars, retailer of smoke-room stories a great gentleman, incapable of meanness, fit for all noble deeds.
