"I wish you wouldn't ask me further; please do not. I shall displease you again."
"I will not be displeased."
"I was thinking of Mr. Humphreys," said Ellen, in a low tone.
"Who is that?"
"You know, Sir; you say I must not call him "
"What were you thinking of him?"
"I was wishing very much I could see him again."
"Well, you are a truth-teller," said Mr. Lindsay, "or bolder than I think you."
"You said you would not be displeased, Sir."
