It would make someone to talk to Madame Imogen and the Cure--and cause there to be no _gene_.
Then her thoughts turned to Henry himself with tender friendship.

So dear a companion, and how glad she would be to see him again.

The ten days since they had parted at Carlsbad seemed actually long! Surely it was a wise thing to do to start her real life with one whom she could so truly respect; there could be no pitfalls and disappointments! And his great position in England would give scope for her ambition, which never could be satisfied like Moravia's with just social things.

She would begin to study English politics and the other great matters which Henry was interested in.

He would find that what she had told him at Carlsbad was true, and that, although he was naturally prejudiced against Americans, he would have to admit that she, as his wife, played the part as well, if not better, than one of his own countrywomen could have done.
