At last the "best" that is to say, the unhappy Leicestrians came to Willoughby, asking his advice in their "declining and desperate cause." "Well nigh a month longer," said that general, "I nourished them with compliments, and assured them that my Lord of Leicester would take care of them." The diet was not fattening.

You are the first heading of the chapter. With you she will have her one tale, as it should be. 'Mulier tum bene olet', you know. Most fragrant she that smells of naught.
"It would be to boast of more charity than I know myself to possess, were I to say that I can, Sir Willoughby. I hope I am able to forgive. I cannot tell. I should like to say yes." "Could you live with the deceiver?" "No." "No. I could have given that answer for you. No semblance of union should be maintained between the deceiver and ourselves. Laetitia!" "Sir Willoughby?"

'Love rules the camp, the court, the grove, and Love deranged the accustomed order, for the Prince sat between Lady Alice and Logan. Opposite Logan, and at Lady Mary's left, was the Jesuit, and next him, Scremerston, beside whom was Miss Willoughby, on the Earl's right.
"Yes, but, Miss Middleton, oughtn't I to tell him? I mean Sir Willoughby." "What?" "Why, that I" Crossjay got close to her "why, that I, that I you know what you used to say. I wouldn't tell a lie, but oughtn't I, without his asking . . . and this money! I don't mind being turned out again." "Consult Mr. Whitford," said Clara. "I know what you think, though."
