Well! if that isn't enough to cool any one's courage, together with this disgusting--I must go on, and get into my room as quickly as possible.

I vow, it is just six o'clock.

If she tells Freda! But she won't do that--no woman ever does.

She'll think it over, and manage to let me see her again--and then--and then--I shall not be able to resist her eyes, and she shall not be able to resist mine.

The witch! A mere servant to do what no woman ever has done, or ever would do--positively refuse me.
