But where is Eira? |

Haven't you seen her yet? |

It is the Doctor's doing. |

You might say "Moody and Sankey"─eh─Theophilus? |

"Flossie." |

It sounds nice and soft, doesn't it? |
(1, 0) 43 |
Like drawing your hand over velvet. |
(1, 0) 44 |
You ought to make a friend of her, and get her to say nice things about you to Eira. |
(1, 0) 45 |
Flossie will divert her, and you will convert her in the end, I'm sure. |

Well, you see, her father left it in his will that she must marry a minister, or not have anything after him, and you know what girls are. |

If you command them to do a thing, they will do something else. |

Well, there it is! |

But I am thinking you are a bit too solemn for her. |
(1, 0) 54 |
Not for me, mind you. |
(1, 0) 55 |
Oh, no! |
(1, 0) 56 |
I uphold solemnity in a minister, especially in a young one. |
(1, 0) 57 |
But, you see, it is not me you want to please. |

Have you told her how much money you have got? |
|

(1, 0) 66 |
Just like her─very straight, always. |

Looks saintly, doesn't she? |

This is Miss Flossie, Theophilus; companion to my niece. |
|

I will leave you to examine into her principles, and say if she is a proper companion for Eira. |
|

Be a good girl, Miss Flossie, and, remember, you are in the company of the minister. |
|

Try to get round her. |
(1, 0) 83 |
She will help you with Eira. |

Well, indeed! |
(1, 0) 191 |
I hope Eira is coming to her senses. |
(1, 0) 192 |
You are very patient with her, I must say, Theophilus. |

No explosives, if you please, Miss Flossie. |

My dear Eira, I am doing my best for you. |

What else can I do? |
|
|
(1, 0) 210 |
Do be reasonable, Eira. |

I offer you Theophilus, with his £500 a year, and you ask for the Church Yard! |
