Still the choice appeared to be circumscribed to the fair three who had been subjected to Colonel Morley's speculative criticism Lady Adela, Miss Vipont, Flora Vyvyan. Much pro and con might be said in respect to each. Lady Adela was so handsome that it was a pleasure to look at her; and that is much when one sees the handsome face every day, provided the pleasure does not wear off.
"'You said you were sorry, questioned his mother, leaning over him, 'and asked God to make you a good boy? "'Yes, mother, he nodded, 'I said I was sorry and asked God to make Vyvyan a good boy. "I had to leave the room, Frank, or he would have seen me smiling. Wasn't it delightful of him! We are all willing to ask God to make others good." This story shows the lovable side of him.
He expressed himself much pleased with his Ministers. The King desired Lord Camden to come and see him frequently every three or four days. The Duke of Newcastle, Lord Falmouth, Sir E. Knatchbull, Sir R. Vyvyan, will not support the new Government. Having had their revenge they mean to put their knees in our backs and do all they can to get out the others.
That last was adorable four offers had been advanced to her hand on that merit alone. Fairies cannot be vulgar, no matter what they do; they may take the strangest liberties pinch the maids turn the house topsy-turvy; but they are ever the darlings of grace and poetry. Flora Vyvyan was a fairy.
He would have spoken, but the Master sternly ordered him to be silent, and said to him: "Vyvyan Bruce, you are convicted by your own confession, extorted after deliberate falsehood, of having wished to drug the wine of a fellow-student for the purpose of entrapping him into a sin, to which you would otherwise have failed to tempt him.
Vyvyan from his easy-chair. "Ask her ten years hence," said the Colonel, as he retreated to the door. "The fairest leaves in the flower are the last that the bud will disclose." From Mr. Vyvyan the Colonel went to Lord -'s. His lordship had also heard from Darrell that morning; Darrell declined the invitation to Hall; business at Fawley.
When Alcides, having gone through all the fatigues of life, took a bride in Olympus, he ought to have selected Minerva, but he chose Hebe. Will Darrell find his Hebe in Flora Vyvyan? Alban Morley became more and more alarmed by the apprehension. He was shrewd enough to recognise in her the girl of all others formed to glad the eye and plague the heart of a grave and reverend seigneur.
"How do you do?" was his father's cold reply. "Dear me I quite expected to find a party going on, but you seem quite gloomy. Is anything the matter?" "Matter, sir!" exclaimed Sir Rollo, starting up vehemently from his chair, and angrily pacing the room. "Matter! Upon my word, Vyvyan, your impudence is sublime." "You surprise me. What have I done?" "Done!" retorted his father, with intense scorn.
"Yes," said Mr. Vyvyan. "I had a note from him this morning to say he had renounced all hope of " "What?" cried the Colonel. "Joining us in Switzerland. I am so sorry. Flora still more sorry. She is accustomed to have her own way, and she had set her heart on hearing Darrell read 'Manfred' in sight of the Jungfrau!" "Um!" said the Colonel. "What might be sport to her might be death to him.
Darrell appeared to be in the highest spirits; and I firmly believe that he was striving to the utmost in his power what? to make himself agreeable to Flora Vyvyan? No; to make Flora Vyvyan agreeable to himself. The man did not presume that a fair young lady could be in love with him; perhaps he believed that, at his years, to be impossible.
