The Prince went straight up to him.
"Sorry to draw you away from the sweets of conversation," said he, smiling; "but your daughter is waiting for you, and is anxious at your not coming." "Faith! My daughter, yes.

I will come and see you tomorrow," said he to his companion.

"We will talk over this association: there is much to be gained by it." The other, a man with a bloated face, and fair Dundreary whiskers, was eager to do business with him.

Certainly the affair was good.
"Oh, my dear Prince, I am happy to be alone with you for a moment!" said Herzog, with that familiarity which was one of his means of becoming intimate with people.

"I was going to compliment you! What a splendid position you have reached." "Yes; I have married a charming woman," replied the Prince, coldly.
"And what a fortune!" insisted the financier.
