There are times when you are magnificent, when I could put you on a pedestal, you great big, unafraid man. But you mustn't play with her, just the same." "Why mustn't I?" "For her sake." He frowned past her into space, his tight-shut jaw standing out saliently. "You're right, Virginia. I've been thinking so myself. I'll keep off the grass," he said, at last.

He is not eminently, that is to say, not saliently, selfish; not rancorous, not obtrusive tata-ta-ta. But dull! dull as a woollen nightcap over eyes and ears and mouth. Oh! an executioner's black cap to me. Dull, and suddenly staring awake to the idea of his honour. I "rendered" him ridiculous I had caught a trick of "using men's phrases."
