"I'm a married woman, Miss, and shouldn't be working like this. And I won't be always; my man'll come back and make a lady of me again. It's that I'm waiting for." Here a customer came in. Naturally I drew back, for our faces were nearly touching. "Don't go," she pleaded, catching me by the sleeve and turning astonishingly pale for one ordinarily so ruddy.

The first time Peter took Urquhart down to Chelsea to call on his Hope uncle and cousins, one Sunday afternoon, he gave him a succinct account of the sort of people they would probably meet there.
The moment he caught sight of the young woman's astonishingly beautiful face he pushed through the crowd, walked rapidly to her side, gently took hold of her satchel, and said quietly, "You will go with me. I will see you properly cared for." The young woman looked into his face and recoiled.
