You've got a nice place here, Mrs. Rosewarne; and what splendid weather you've brought with you!" "Yes," said Wenna, her whole face lit up with a shy gladness, "haven't we? And did you ever see the bay looking more beautiful? It is enough to make you laugh and clap your hands out of mere delight to see everything so lovely and fresh."
Trelyon alter in this respect never, if he were to live for a hundred years. And and I am surprised to hear you, of all people, mother, suggest such things of him. What has he done that you should think so meanly of him?" Wenna was very indignant and hurt. She would have continued further, but that a tremulous movement of her under lip caused her to turn away her head.
As Wenna sang the song it seemed to this young man that there was an unusual pathos in her voice; and he was so carried away by the earnestness of her singing that his heart swelled and rose up within him, and he felt himself ready to declare that such should not be her fate. This man who was coming back to marry her was there no one ready to meet him and challenge his atrocious claim?
He would tell her who this girl was who had been lightly mentioned. And in his blunt, frank, matter-of-fact way, which did not quite conceal his emotion, he revealed to his cousin all that he thought of Wenna Rosewarne, and what he hoped for her in the future, and what their present relations were, and then plainly asked her if she could condemn him.
George Rosewarne was heartily glad to exchange the one daughter for the other. Mabyn was too independent; she thwarted him; sometimes she insisted on his bestirring himself. Wenna, on the other hand, went about the place like some invisible spirit of order, making everything comfortable for him without noise or worry.
"You don't know how sensitive she is," she continued, apparently thinking over all the possibilities of the future in a much graver fashion than she had done. "If you were unkind to her it would kill her. Are you quite sure you won't regret it?" "Yes, I am quite sure of that," said he "as sure as a man may be. I don't think you need fear my being unkind to Wenna.
Trelyon said in her kind way to Wenna, noticing that she was very silent and distrait. "Oh no," Mabyn said promptly. "She has been seeing ghosts. We always know when Wenna has been seeing ghosts: she remains so for hours."
"I suppose we shall soon have a batch of parsons here: summer always brings them. They come out with the hot weather like butterflies." Mrs. Trelyon was shocked and disappointed: she thought Wenna Rosewarne had cured him of his insane dislike to clergymen indeed, for many a day gone by he had kept respectfully silent on the subject.
"No, no, no," Roscorla said: "it's Wenna he means to marry." "Why, you were to have married Wenna?" "Yes, but " "Then why didn't you? So she's run away, has she?" George Rosewarne grinned: he saw how the matter lay. "This is Mabyn's work, I know," said he as he put his foot in the stirrup and sprang into the saddle. "You'd better go home, Roscorla. Don't you say a word to anybody.
"I am very glad to hear that," Wenna said in a low voice. Trelyon did come to the Hall for a few days, but he kept away from the village, and was seen by no one of the Rosewarnes. But on the Christmas morning, Mabyn Rosewarne, being early about, was told that Mrs. Trelyon's groom wished to see her, and, going down, she found the man, with a basket before him. "Please, miss, Mr.
