If so, the jewel should, of course, be surrendered,--or replaced by one of equal value.

He was making out some such solution, when Lizzie returned with the morocco case in her hand.

"It was the manner in which he gave it to me," said Lizzie, as she opened the clasp, "which makes its value to me." Lord Fawn knew nothing about jewels, but even he knew that if the circle of stones which he saw, with a Maltese cross appended to it, was constituted of real diamonds, the thing must be of great value.
And it occurred to him at once that such a necklace is not given by a husband even to a bride in the manner described by Lizzie.

A ring, or brooch, or perhaps a bracelet, a lover or a loving lord may bring in his pocket.

But such an ornament as this on which Lord Fawn was now looking, is given in another sort of way.
