Thereafter, obeying the mute appeal of that hand, he seated himself upon the narrow bed, while Hermione, soft-voiced and tender, bent above the invalid, who, having obediently swallowed her medicine, leaned back on her pillow and smiled from one to the other.
And then he went silently and lightly upon his way. The time moved on quietly enough in the land of delight. I made acquaintance with quite a number of the soft-voiced contented folk.
