In fact, he had only put off the reckoning for six months, in which he must make good, and he knitted his brows while he studied Titania's picture. He thought about her sister ship, wrecked and abandoned on the African coast. Arcturus was a useful boat and cheap to run. Although times were bad, Cartwright could run her and earn some profit.
"Well, as the street we live on is named after him, I think you ought to," he said. He pulled down his copy of The House of Cobwebs. "I'm going to read you one of the most delightful short stories I know. It's called 'A Charming Family." "No, Roger," said Mrs. Mifflin firmly. "Not to-night. It's eleven o'clock, and I can see Titania's tired. Even Bock has left us and gone in to his kennel.
I will put some of the juice of that flower on my Titania's eyes, and when she wakes she will love the first thing she sees, were it lion, bear, or wolf, or bull, or meddling monkey, or a busy ape."
We planted seeds here; I called it Titania's Spring, the watercourse in which it exists I called Moffatt's* Creek. The night was totally different from the former, the mercury not falling below 66 degrees. The horses upon being brought up to the camp this morning on foot, displayed such abominable liveliness and flashness, that there was no catching them.
"I will, don't worry," said Aubrey grimly. He knew now that he had put himself hopelessly in the wrong in Titania's mind, but he refused to abate his own convictions. With sinking heart he saw her face relieved against the shelves of faded bindings. Her eyes shone with a deep and sultry blue, her chin quivered with anger. "Look here," she said furiously. "Either you or I must leave this place.
The cause of this unhappy disagreement was Titania's refusing to give Oberon a little changeling boy, whose mother had been Titania's friend; and upon her death the fairy queen stole the child from its nurse, and brought him up in the woods.
He had to have the cover of the book to bind his bomb in." Aubrey was agreeably conscious of the close attention of his audience. He caught Titania's gaze, and flushed a little. "That's pretty nearly all there is to it," he said. "I knew that if those guys were so keen to put me out of the way there must be something rather rotten on foot.
I could feel them through the spring overcoat ads. "What is an equinox?" "I think I must have left my matches upstairs," I said, and went up to look for them. I stayed aloft ten minutes and hoped that by that time she would have passed on to some other topic. When I slunk into the living room again I hastily suggested a game of double Canfield, but Titania's brow was still perplexed.
Her skin was white as milk of pearls; gossamer fine, silken and creamy; translucent as though a soft brilliancy dwelt within it. Beside it Ruth's fair skin was like some sun-and-wind-roughened country lass's to Titania's. She studied us as though she were seeing for the first time beings of her own kind.
The barely averted tragedy somewhat modified their regret at leaving Titania's Mirror and Mystery Island. Later, Steve and Joe tried to locate that island on the charts but without certain success. There were so many islands thereabouts that neither dared to more than guess at the identity of the one they had visited.
