THE ladies went down together, and found Vizard ready. Mr. Severne was not in the room. Zoe inquired after him.
“Gone to get a sun-shade,” said Vizard.
“There!” said Zoe to Fanny, in a triumphant whisper. “What is that for but to go with us?”
Fanny made no reply.
They waited some time for Severne and his sun-shade.
At last Vizard looked at his watch, and said they had only five minutes to spare. “Come down, and look after him. He must be somewhere about.”
They went down and looked for him all over the Platz. He was not to be seen. At last Vizard took out his watch, and said, “It is some misunderstanding: we can't wait any longer.”
