She passed close to him a number of times, her eyes wide and smiling, her lips parted, her teeth agleam, and he felt a stirring of sympathy and companionship for her which he had not previously experienced. She was lovely, all of her--delightful. She was seated with her latest admirer in a far corner of the general living-room, a clear floor now waxed to perfection. |
