It wants a Pope to settle that!" "You prefer not to perhaps?" Lucetta showed in her appealing tone how much she leant on Elizabeth's judgment. "Yes, Miss Templeman," admitted Elizabeth. "I would rather not say." Nevertheless, Lucetta seemed relieved by the simple fact of having opened out the situation a little, and was slowly convalescent of her headache. "Bring me a looking-glass.
On hearing her announce the address there suddenly took possession of him the strange thought that Lucetta and Miss Templeman were one and the same person, for he could recall that in her season of intimacy with him the name of the rich relative whom he had deemed somewhat a mythical personage had been given as Templeman.
"Nothing, however, is new under the sun. Many journals related the fact that these people had passed away without a cause, as though it were an event without a parallel. It is not. Your Dr. Templeman, in 1893, describes two examples of sudden death with absolute absence of any pathological condition in any part of the bodies to account for it.
Satisfied at last with his investigation the young man stood upright, and met their eyes across the summit. "We are looking at the wonderful new drill," Miss Templeman said. "But practically it is a stupid thing is it not?" she added, on the strength of Henchard's information. "Stupid? O no!" said Farfrae gravely. "It will revolutionize sowing heerabout!

When it fell in with his mood to argue against that which he himself most affected, he would quote the childish bit of doggerel beginning 'The first the worst, the second the same, and then grow eloquent over the dainty Templeman Hazlitts which are chiefly third editions.
She looked thoughtfully round the room at the little square piano with brass inlayings, at the window-curtains, at the lamp, at the fair and dark kings and queens on the card-table, and finally at the inverted face of Lucetta Templeman, whose large lustrous eyes had such an odd effect upside down. Elizabeth's mind ran on acquirements to an almost morbid degree.
