Halcyone

CHAPTER XXV
4/13

"If you will write to your Aunts La Sarthe, I do not think there can be any objection." "We could take Aphrodite, could we not ?" Halcyone asked.

"She is very heavy, I know, but I would carry her, and I do not think I would like to leave her there in the dark away from me for all that time." "We would certainly take her," said Cheiron.
Halcyone knew enough about London now to know where Kensington Gardens were.

Whenever she went to see Mr.Carlyon, it was an understood thing he would bring her safely back, so no one would be sent to fetch her.
Might they not go to Kensington Gardens this morning, she asked.

She remembered to have noticed, when she had driven past with Mr.Anderton, that there seemed to be big trees there.

She wanted to get into some open space, London was stifling her.
Mr.Carlyon put on his hat, and prepared to accompany her.
