How lovely this is! I am so glad you have come! How did you get in?
gpt
By the gate.
human
But I locked it.
gpt
Locked gates are nothing to me. I jumped over it!
human
How splendid! she said, gazing at him, her soft azure eyes full of admiration.
gpt
That high, spike-topped gate! I wish I had seen you. And how did you get here? How did you find the garden?
human
I walked here from the Delameres'.
gpt
Walked! It's fifteen miles to their house.
human
Well, what is fifteen miles? he answered, smiling down into her upraised face.
gpt
Nothing, after fifty miles a day of cross country, as I have often had to do; and as to finding you, in comparison with the interior of Africa, Stossop's geography is pretty easy.
human
How wonderful you are, she said softly,
gpt
It is a beautiful place. It seems like those magic gardens one reads of. One can't believe it's just ordinary England.
human
It is perfect to me now you are here. I was wishing so much for you to come.
gpt
It must have been that which drew me here to you--darling.
