"You are so honest and brave, Philip, that I can't help believing you. I hope you are my cousin, at any rate, for I shall be proud of the relationship."
"Thank you, Marian—may I call you so?"
"Certainly you may, if you are my cousin."
"You are very kind."
"Indeed, you have already placed me under a debt of obligation to you which I can never repay."
"I am more glad to serve you than you can be to be served. Steady!"
"What's the matter?"
"The Florina has hauled her wind," I replied, watching the chase.
"What does that mean?"
"She has turned her head more to the north."
