But in the years which immediately succeeded the Revolution, the Cameronians continued a sect strong in numbers and vehement in their political opinions, whom Government wished to discourage, while they prudently temporised with them.
King Ferdinand temporised, denying the truth of the reports of persecution and alleging that no oppressive measures had been adopted against the Moors, describing whatever hardships they may have suffered as unavoidably incidental to the reorganisation of the recently acquired provinces. His tranquillising assurances were not accepted with unreserved credence by the Sultan.
"Ask Miss Bernard to come up for a few minutes, will you?" "Do you think it's wise?" she temporised. "Please ask her to come up," he said, imperatively. "Must I call her myself?" So Rose came up, after receiving the customary caution not to stay too long and avoid everything that might be unpleasant or exciting. She stood for a moment in the doorway, hesitating.
"And you what did you say?" The Marquis looked carefully round before replying. Then he leant forward with his forefinger raised delicately to the tip of his nose. "I temporised, Comtesse," he said, in a low voice. "I explained as gracefully as one could that it was too early to think of such a development that I was taken by surprise."

He asked me to marry him," the troubled voice sank to a whisper, "and I I don't know what to do." "My dear." The tenderness of Miss Craven's tone sent a strangling wave of emotion into Gillian's throat. "Aunt Caro, did you know? Do you wish it too?" she murmured wistfully. Unwilling to admit a previous knowledge which would be difficult to explain, Miss Craven temporised.
The others, by this, had disappeared in various directions, puzzled and exceedingly uncertain what to do. Indeed, to congratulate Billy in the Colonel's presence would have been tactless; and, on the other hand, to condole with the Colonel without seeming to affront the wealthy Mr. Woods was almost impossible. So they temporised and fled all save Mrs. Haggage. She, alone, remained to view Mr.
