The Marchese Rivardi looked at her with something of defiance in his glance. "I will adventure in search of the legendary city myself, alone!" he said. Morgana laughed, her clear little cold laugh of disdain. "Do so, my friend! Why not?" she said "You are a daring airman on many forms of airships I knew that, before I entrusted you with the scheme of mine.
She called to Rivardi, and he, with the slightest turn of the wheel, altered the direction in which the air-ship moved, so that it travelled back again on the route by which it had commenced its flight.
The Marchese Rivardi and Gaspard watched her expression anxiously. "You are satisfied?" asked Rivardi, at last "It is as you planned?" She turned towards Gaspard with a smile. "What do YOU think about it?" she queried "You are an expert in modern scientific work you understand many of the secrets of natural force what do YOU think?" "Madama, I think as I have always thought! a body without soul!"
My father used always to say that he could count his ancestry back to Egypt! it pleased him to think so and it did nobody any harm!" "Have you ever been to the East?" asked Lady Kingswood. "No but I'm going! My 'White Eagle' will take me there in a very short time! But, as I've already told you, I must learn to fly alone." "What does the Marchese Rivardi say to that?"
When Rivardi had made a trial ascent he had inserted in each of these boxes a cylindrical tube made to fit an interior socket as a candle fits into a candle-stick, all the workmen watched him, waiting for a revelation, but he made none. He was only particular and precise as to the firm closing down of the boxes when the tubes were in.
Though the Marchese Rivardi DID ask me to-day what was the use of my pretty 'palazzo' and gardens without love! A sort of ethical conundrum!" She glanced at Rivardi as she spoke he was rolling a cigarette in his slim brown fingers and his face was impassively intent on his occupation.
"You know I did!" she replied "Why ask the question? Messages on a Sound-Ray can reach YOU, as well as me!" He moved to the stone bench which occupied a corner of the cloister and sat down. He was very pale and his eyes were feverishly bright. Presently he seemed to recover himself, and spoke more in his usual manner. "Rivardi has been here every day" he said "He has talked of nothing but you.
She had passed the afternoon going over her whole house and gardens, and to the Marchese Giulio Rivardi had expressed herself completely satisfied, while he, to whom unlimited means had been entrusted to carry out her wishes, wondered silently as to the real extent of her fortune, and why she should have spent so much in restoring a "palazzo" for herself alone.
However, they were paid punctually and most royally for their labours; and when, despite their ominous predictions, the ship was released on her trial trip, manipulated by Giulio Rivardi, who ascended in her alone, sailing the ship with an ease and celerity hitherto unprecedented, they were more scared than enthusiastic.
So fired with light she looked ethereal a very spirit of air or of flame; and Rivardi, just able to see her from his steering place, began to think there was some truth an the strange words of Don Aloysius "Sometimes in this wonderful world of ours beings are born who are neither man nor woman and who partake of a nature that is not so much human as elemental or, might not one almost say atmospheric?"
