"I don't see how, but it does!" Cornelia gave him a sharp side-look, to make out if he was sincere; but his face at the moment was in shadow. "Perhaps because it pricked your finger," said she.
'I shall be most delighted to have you. I won't say merely a trifle delighted. 'Ah! Haven't you forgiven that remark yet? 'There's nothing to forgive, and it is quite too delicious to forget.
