Do sit down, dear boy. Melusine recognised the burly form of Captain Roding’s sergeant. No matter how much you tell me,
you will always keep something back. The
detective reckoned that his quarry would be up in ten days more. ‘Let go!’
‘Do you take me for a fool?’ Gerald demanded. For days I have been undecided as to
whether I would come to you or no. One’s sense of proportion, battered out of all shape in the daily life of
cities, reasserts itself. ’

Roding’s glare tried Gerald’s control severely, but he pursued his theme
unheeding. He found the door ajar, and, to his surprise, perceived little
Winifred seated at a table, busily engaged in tracing some design upon a sheet of
paper. “This has all the clean
freshness of spring and youth,” said Capes; “it is love with the down on; it is like
the glitter of dew in the sunlight to be lovers such as we are, with no more than
one warm kiss between us. They would be quite
as entertaining as the histories of Guzman D'Alfarache, Lazarillo de Tormes,
Estevanillo Gonzalez, Meriton Latroon, or any of my favourite rogues,—and far
more instructive.
