Don't be offended. I like it. It pleases me. Think of it! One dull evening in a suburban home, one morning's encounter in a rose-garden, and the thing's done--the sage melts into the man, the onlooker into the soldier. I tell you I like it. It's so natural, so human--so splendidly unlike you. Let me help. What can I do? She's coming here now with some letters for me to sign. "Were it ever so airy a tread, your heart would hear her and beat." Isn't it so? Shall I speak to her for you? Better still, shall I leave you alone together?
