The second glance was full of conflagration.

The second day of the queen's residence in Haddon I was astonished, grieved, and angered to see that our girl had turned her powerful batteries upon the earl with the evident purpose of conquest.

At times her long lashes would fall before him, and again her great luminous eyes would open wide, shedding a soft radiance which no man could withstand.

Once I saw her walking alone with him upon the terrace.
Her head was drooped shamelessly, and the earl was ardent though restless, being fearful of the queen.

I boiled with rage against Dorothy, but by a strong effort I did not boil over until I had better cause.
