Still, I don't suppose I shall really need to go away in spite of your dismissal, for the Prince this morning offered me ten times the amount of money you are paying." "Did he ?" "Be assured he did; if you don't believe me, ask him.

I told him he was a fool, but, alas, we live in a cynical age, and few men believe all they hear, so I fear my expression of opinion made little impression on him." "I shall not keep you longer from his Highness," said the Princess with freezing dignity.
"Thank you so much.

I am just dying to meet him, for I know he has something most interesting to tell me.

Don't you think yourself, Princess, that a man acts rather like a fool when he is deeply in love ?" To this there was no reply, and the Princess left the room.
Miss Jennie jumped to her feet and almost ran to the library.

She found the Prince walking up and down the long room with a telegraph message in his hand.
