"Much better!" returned Sir Philip fervently.

"In fact, there is no place like it in my opinion." He paused at the sound of her pretty laughter.
"You are--what is it ?--ecstatic!" she said mirthfully.

"Tell me, have you been to the south of France and the Pyrenees ?" "Of course I have," he replied.
