"A what! my dear?" asked Henry in surprise.
"Tell him what I mean, Grandma; you can explain it better, far, than I can do," said Frank.
"No; try yourself, instead."
"I really can't, Grandma, though I do quite understand it; so tell him, if you please."
Mrs. Grey explained the previous conversations, with which the reader is acquainted, and at the conclusion, Frank exclaimed:—
"And, Harry dear, it is delightful to see that God has made of you a 'Crystal Palace,' I am sure."
Poor Harry shook his head at first, and said, "A very little palace, dear, I am afraid."
"But Grandma says, that little things may be complete, and beautiful, and luminous," said Frank.
"Well, shall I tell you, then, how it has been formed?" said Harry.
"Oh, do!" said Frank; "that will be kind."
