Good-morning, sir! Glad to see you up! In honor of the day, eh?
gpt
Have you seen her?
human
Ha! first question. Nothing about how I enjoyed my trip, or stood it after my illness; only 'Have you seen her?' No thanks to you for your polite inquiries after me--I _have_ seen her.
gpt
And--what have you to tell me?
human
Come, now--what do you expect? You, who have such a poor opinion of the fair sex, shouldn't look for much from 'em.
gpt
Little enough would I expect from any other woman under the sun, but from Margaret Walsingham, all that makes a woman pure, right in heart, grand in spirit.
human
I found her at Mr. Stanhope's, ill and sorrowful----
gpt
My poor child!
human
Quite prostrated, and unfit for her duties--Mrs. Stanhope full of concern, the children out on the beach with their black nurse. You should have seen her, when they sent her down from her room to me.
gpt
I wish I had.
