"Promise! certainly, Reddy; just ask me whatever you choose. If it's to cut off my head, or say I think Miss Sallianna pretty, I'll do it such is my devotion to you!" laughed Fanny. Redbud smiled. "Only promise me to amuse Verty, when he comes." "Amuse him!" "Yes." "What do you mean." "I mean," Redbud said, sighing, "that I don't think I shall be able to do so." "What!"
"I see, sir, that you are not acquainted with this still more divine specimen of the hum I said that once before. Miss Sallianna, sir, is the beautiful sister of the respected Scowley." "And who is here besides, if you please?" said Verty. "A number of charming young ladies, sir.
"I see you speak French." "That ain't French." "No? Then it's something else. Going up there?" "Yes," said Verty. "Fine turkey that. For the old lady?" "Who's the old lady?" "Old Mrs. Scowley a model of the divine sex, sir." "No, it ain't for her," said Verty, smiling. "For Miss Sallianna?" "Who's that?"
The young man had just reached the foot of the hill, upon which the Bower of Nature stood have we not mentioned before the name which Miss Sallianna had bestowed upon the seminary? when he heard himself accosted by a laughing and careless voice, and raised his head, to see from whom it proceeded.
The whole party were so overcome by this ludicrous exposé of Miss Sallianna's schemes, that a laugh much louder than the first rang through the garden; and when Miss Sallianna was descried sailing in dignified meditation up and down the portico, her fan gently waving, her head inclined to one side, her eyes fixed upon the sky, Mr.
Such was her ecstacy of "inward contemplation," to use her favorite phrase, that the weight of thought bent down her yellow eye-lashes and clouded her languishing eyes. She raised them, however, and glancing at Verty, started. "Good-morning, ma'am," said Verty "Miss, I mean. I got your letter." "Good-morning, sir," said Miss Sallianna, with some stiffness; "where are your clothes?"
"La! Mr. Ashley." "I mean, Miss Sallianna, the education, not of my mind that is finished and perfect: Oh, no! not that! The education of my heart!" Ralph was getting on at headlong speed. "Do you consent?" he said. "La really indeed " "Why not, oh, beautiful lady " "How can I ever so inexperienced so innocent a person as myself can scarcely " And Miss Sallianna fell into a flutter.
"Then Fanny must." "Oh, no!" observed Miss Sallianna, with vivacity. "Why not?" said Ralph. "She could not " "Could not!" "She is too young, and then besides " "Besides, Miss Sallianna?" "She is already taken up with her affair with Mr. Verty." "What!" cried Ralph, beginning to have the tables turned upon him, and to suffer for his quizzing. "She is evidently in love with Mr.
Therefore, as we have arrived at this rational conclusion, and come to regard Verty and his feelings in their proper light, we will not speak further of the foolish words which escaped from his lips, as he went on, in the crimson sunset slowly fading. In time, perhaps, his education will be completed in the school of Rational Philosophy, under that distinguished lady-professor, Miss Sallianna.
We shall now return to Miss Sallianna, and see what effect the viper tendencies of Mr. Verty had produced upon that young lady.
