Five people dressed for costume ball, four sitting, one standing ……… Frontispiece
The handsomest girl I had set eyes upon in a month of moons.
"This is what I want. How much?" I inquired.
Turning, I beheld an exquisite Columbine.
I led her over to a secluded nook. We sat down.
And there we sat, calmly munching the apples.
"Madame, will you do me the honor to raise your mask?"
We watched the girl as she bathed and bandaged the wounded arm.
With a contented sigh she rested her blue-slippered feet on the brass fender.
