"You must do it—for my sake," added the doctor.
"Dr. Sandford," said Daisy, "was that what you meant?"
"When?"
"When you said, if I was a good child?"
"It must have been that I meant, I think. I could have said it in no other connection."
"The pony-chaise, ma'am, for Miss Randolph—" said a servant at the door.
"The chaise may go away again, Daisy, I suppose," said Mrs. Sandford.
"You will not want it."
"Yes, she will," said the doctor,—"to drive to Melbourne. Go, Daisy, since you are ready; I will follow you. That little waddling fellow can be overtaken without any great difficulty."
"Do you want me to drive slowly, sir?"
"Not at all," said the doctor; "only drive well, for I shall come and see."
