When three of them had passed, he declared his love to Ida Winwood, though in such a way that she need neither refuse nor accept him at once; and a quasi engagement was made between them, having in view a probable share in Vibbard's fortunes. Once, perhaps more than once, Silverthorn bitterly reproached himself, in her presence, for trusting so entirely to another man's energies.

The Professor never was admitted to perform his functions of theology, but he remained at Leyden, so Winwood complained, "honoured, recognized as a singularity and ornament to the Academy in place of the late Joseph Scaliger." "The friendship of the King and the heresy of Vorstius are quite incompatible," said the Envoy.
Go round to the Conservative Club at once, and tell the meeting what has happened, and give this to Colonel Winwood." "With pleasure," said Wilson. Then Paul shook hands with all his fellow-workers and thanked them in his courtly way, and, pleading for solitude, went through the door of the great chamber and, guided by an attendant, reached the exit in a side street where his car awaited him.
Walter Pater talks about it you know in his 'Renaissance' the pen dropping from her hand 'the high, cold words that have no meaning for her the intolerable honour'! Oh, it's enormous, isn't it?" "I'm afraid I've not read my Pater as I ought," said Miss Winwood. "But, you must!" cried Paul, with the gloriously audacious faith of youth which has just discovered a true apostle.
Just then he noticed Philip Winwood, who had viewed every detail of the scene with wonder, and who now regarded Ned with a kind of vaguely disliking curiosity, such as one bestows on some sinister-looking strange animal. Philip's look was, of course, unconscious, but none the less clearly to be read for that.

Winwood promised to confer at once with the French ambassador, admitting it to be impossible for the King to take up this matter alone. He would also talk with the Archduke's ambassador next day noon at dinner, who was about leaving for Brussels, and "he would put something into his hand that he might take home with him."
The French ambassador, therefore, was obliged to depart from these extensive views, and to concert with James the means of providing for the safety of the United Provinces: nor was this object altogether without its difficulties. * Sully's Memoirs.

Miss Lavinia took the telegram from the floor, and read these lines: "Lady Winwood, Hertford Street, London. To Natalie Graybrooke, Church Meadows, Baxdale, Somersetshire. Dreadful news. R. T. has discovered your marriage to Launce. Instant flight with your husband is your only chance. I would have communicated with Launce, but I do not know his address.
