The doctor's horse was before the door, and Daisy was on the piazza. The doctor came out, ready for his day's work.
"Do you want me to do anything for you at Melbourne, Daisy?"
"Cannot I go home to-day, Dr. Sandford?"
"I do not know. Supposing that you be still kept in banishment
what then?"
Daisy struggled with herself succeeded, and spoke calmly. "I should like to have Loupe sent, Dr. Sandford, if you please."
"Loupe? what is that? What is Loupe, Daisy?"
"My pony, sir. My pony-chaise."
"Oh! Not to drive to Melbourne?"
Daisy met the doctor's blue eye full, and answered with guileless submission.
