He shook her hand off his coat-sleeve and went towards the door. Im too restless, Claudia. Tell Neeburg I had to go.
Colin, what a delightful surprise! cried Claudia, taking his hand in hers. I am glad to see you again. Perhaps there was also a little relief at the interruption of an unpleasant scene, but she was unfeignedly glad to feel his firm hand-clasp once more. She was almost surprised herself to find how glad she was.
Love gives even the most stupid of men extraordinary powers of intuition where the woman he loves is concerned. In a flash he knew that his own suit was hopeless and the reason.
His eyes were black with anger and his lower lip protruded pugnaciously, just as his fathers did. Claudia watched him, fascinated, for this was the first real quarrel they had had. In the midst of a pregnant silence the door opened, and the manservant announced Mr. Paton.
Gilbert made a business of looking at his watch and starting with alarm. By jove, I didnt know it was so late. I must just swallow my coffee and run. May I leave the mater with you to finish her coffee at her leisure?
I cant really, but Ive come for an hour. I wondered if there was a chance of getting a dance with you.

She knew that she stood on the Great Threshold. It was only fair to Frank that she should decide to-night. She knew by this time enough of men to realize that self-repression, self-control are foreign to their nature and upbringing. She was content, or she could have forced herself to be content, with the indefinite relations between them. Something urged her across the threshold, and yet something that she could not grasp or define held her back. She remembered a phrase from a play she had seen a few days previously, in which a man had spoken of womans innate purity. Could she lay claim to such a possession? Clearly, no. She had dallied with the idea, she had let Frank kiss her time and again without any repugnance. A pure-minded woman would have repulsed him at the outset. She would have said, I am a married woman. Only my husband has a right to my caresses.
If I had been an Early Victorian maiden, I should have waited patiently, like a brown paper parcel, till he came to claim me.... Ah, well! You dance much better than he does. He dances like a pair of animated fire tongs.
Yes, I think so, this time. But he needs a good many sittings.... Do you like Frank Hamilton?
Yes, I willif you dont want me to be resigned. Young people cant be resigned, can they?
They say Mrs. Iverson has given up her wicked, siren-like ways and gone in for spiritualism. He wished his mother realized that she was keeping him from his work and would hurry up with her lunch. The leisurely ways of the country were not those of town. But Lady Currey was doing her duty.
I think Mr. Hamilton has forgotten me, she replied quietly. We were acquainted in our youth.
