I wish your ladyship would fall into this plan; Mr.Gray has it so at heart." Miss Galindo looked wistfully at my lady, as she said this.

But my lady only said, drily, and rising at the same time, as if to end the conversation-- "So Mr.Horner and Mr.Gray seem to have gone a long way in advance of my consent to their plans." "There!" exclaimed Miss Galindo, as my lady left the room, with an apology for going away; "I have gone and done mischief with my long, stupid tongue.

To be sure, people plan a long way ahead of to-day; more especially when one is a sick man, lying all through the weary day on a sofa." "My lady will soon get over her annoyance," said I, as it were apologetically.

I only stopped Miss Galindo's self-reproaches to draw down her wrath upon myself.
"And has not she a right to be annoyed with me, if she likes, and to keep annoyed as long as she likes?
Am I complaining of her, that you need tell me that?
Let me tell you, I have known my lady these thirty years; and if she were to take me by the shoulders, and turn me out of the house, I should only love her the more.

So don't you think to come between us with any little mincing, peace-making speeches.
