I talked for a short time with Mrs.Meadowsweet, and found her most interesting.

She told me a lot about Beatrice.

She thinks Beatrice the noblest creature in the world.

As I very nearly agreed with her we got on capitally." "What a romantic puss you are, Kate," said her brother.
She was leaning on him, and he gave her arm a playful pinch.
"You met Miss Meadowsweet on Tuesday, wasn't it?
This is Friday, and she is the 'very dearest girl in the world,' and already you are Catherine and Beatrice to one another.

Upon my word, hearts move rapidly towards each other in certain quarters." "In more quarters than one," replied Kate, with an arch smile.
