Leslie folded Rosalind to his breast. She spoke not resisted not her trembling limbs and sobs told more than words could have done. "That'll do for the present," interrupted Kent, in a kind tone. "We must be off now, fur the red-skins have smelt the rat, and I should judge by the noise they're makin' that they're in a confounded muss. Never mind, don't cry.

And now Rosalind and Belle claimed Celia's attention, demanding to know what she thought of the detective; and she must come back to earth and listen and reply and enter into their gayety an easier matter, to be sure, than responding to the comments of grown people. The next morning, on her way to class, Celia met Miss Betty and Dr.

I'm going to do a good deal of canning this fall. I thought later I would send you a box of canned fruit. Do you live in the same place on the North Side? It must be nice in the evening to be able to walk down to the park by the lake." Rosalind sat under the tree near the railroad bridge two miles from Willow Springs and watched the tumble bugs at work.

The Elizabethans she knew by heart, poetry was as daily bread. Rosalind in Arden, Viola in Illyria, were as real to her as Bella Bathgate next door. The sound of the gong startled Pamela to her feet. "You don't mean to say it's luncheon time already? I've taken up your whole morning." "It has been perfectly delightful," Jean assured her. "Do stay a long time at Hillview and come in every day.

Who got the night-dwess bag with the two shades of blue that didn't match?" "Esther! You should have seen her face!" whispered Peggy roguishly, and the girls went into peals of laughter, which brought Robert hurrying across the room to join them. "Now then, Rosalind; when you have quite done, I should like to speak to Peggy. The compliments of the season to you, Mariquita; I hope I see you well."

Pellew's suggestion that an Orlando must have come on her stage though no Rosalind had come on his, struck her after it had passed her lips as a false step. He in his turn was at a loss to get something worded so as not to overstep his familiarity-licence.

"It would be easier to say a lot of polite things that I didn't wean. It is the best proof that I do care for your happiness that I have the courage to be disagreeable. You know, Rosalind, the plain truth is that you want to act a part to gain admiration and applause, but it's absurd to think you can go on doing that all your life, and to a person who is with you on every occasion.

At that moment Rob came back with the ices which he had managed to steer safely across the room, and Peggy casting about in her mind for a change of subject, was not at all grateful to Rosalind for repeating her last remarks for her brother's benefit. "I am just telling Mawiquita how incessantly Hector has talked about her since his weturn.
