Oh, what divine pity, what sublime forgetfulness of self, gleamed out of those tender, tear-reddened eyes! "Will you let me?" he said, almost timidly. "I should like you to write. I shall look for your letters, Brian. Don't forget that I shall be anxious for news of you." Almost without knowing what he did, he sank down on his knees before her, and touched her hand reverently with his lips.
Two or three other women were in the room, catching their breath up through their nostrils with little gasps, pressing folded handkerchiefs against their trembling mouths, letting fresh tears well from their tear-reddened eyes.
She looked paler than usual but, in spite of her tear-reddened eyes which she kept fixed on the ground, she was so lovely, so touchingly lovely, that the mere sight of her moved Paulina's heart.

"Sprague?" She spat the name out contemptuously. "No! She didn't know him then, except to speak to at the moving picture studio." "When did he become her lover, Lydia?" Dundee asked casually.
