And now what shall we do? said Charlotte Harman.
gpt
The carriage is waiting for us at the next gate; shall we go for a drive, or shall we walk about here?
human
I would rather walk here,
gpt
Very well. Charlotte, I am glad to see you. And how are your children?
human
Harold has a cold. The other two are very well.
gpt
I never saw sweeter children in my life. And do you know I met your husband? He and your children both spoke to me in the park. It was the day before I came to your house. Mr. Home gave me a very short sermon to think over. I shall never forget it.
human
He saw you and liked you, answered Mrs. Home.
gpt
He told me of that meeting.
human
And I want another meeting. Such a man as that has never come into my life before. I want to see more of him. Charlotte, why did you propose that we should meet here? Why not in my house, or in yours? I wanted to come to you again. I was much disappointed when I got your note.
gpt
I am sorry to have disappointed you; but I thought it best that we should meet here.
human
But why? I don't understand.
gpt
They say that rich people are obtuse. I did not want to see your riches, nor for you to behold the poverty of my land.
human
Charlotte!
gpt
Please don't think me very hard, but I would rather you did not say Charlotte.
human
You would rather I did not say Charlotte?
