Beautiful flowers arrived from the aspiring youths.

They were so lovely, so fragrant! What taste that young Hal Battlebury has! remarks Lawrence Newt, admiringly, as he smells the flowers that stand in a pretty vase upon the centre-table.

Amy Waring smiles, and says that it is Thorburn's taste, of whom Mr.Battlebury buys the flowers.

Mr.Newt replies that it is at least very thoughtful in him.

A young lady can not but feel kindly, surely, toward young men who express their good feeling in the form of flowers.
