"Ah, my Scorpion! why did I love you, but to lose you? How true are the poet's words: 'I never loved a dear gazelle. Well, I must say it, I seldom came across more wicked, heartless children than the Maybrights and Daisy Rymple. David is really the only one of the bunch worth rearing.
Oh, dearie me! oh, dearie me! the foreign young lady shouldn't have done it!" "I am very sure that you're honest, my good creature! Now, do tell me about this stone. How did you come by it?" "It was the young lady, ma'am; the young lady from Australia." "Daisy Rymple, do you mean?" "Miss Flower she called herself, ma'am.
What in the world have you come to me for, Daisy?" "I'm Flower " "Well, and isn't Daisy a flower? Now then, Daisy Rymple, tell your story as quickly as possible.
