These sentries, they'll be on the watch for a gentleman of your distinction and in my lord's company or of some noble attendance.

She, however, rang up Masham, of whose voice, inter alias, she had been half-conscious in the distance for some time past; and who gave the impression of having recently shown a proper spirit. "She'll be better in bed, I think, Masham. She's had such a tiring day. It was my fault. I was rather afraid at the time. I suppose she'll be all right. She gets everything she wants, I suppose?"
Speak, Dr. Masham, do speak! 'My dear young lady, said the Doctor, with a glistening eye, 'it is better that we should both be silent. 'No, indeed, replied Venetia, 'it is not better; it is not well that we should be silent. Candour is a great virtue. There is a charm, a healthy charm, in frankness. Why this mystery?

'A metaphysical description of being in love, said Lord Cadurcis, rather dryly. 'Nay! said Masham, 'I think the heart has something to do with that. 'But the imagination acts upon the heart, rejoined his companion.
