"Oh! yes; have the goodness to walk into the drawing-room; you will find it there now."

"Would you like, Madam, to look at the design for the monument?"
"With pleasure. Oh! what a size! What profusion of decorations! Why, it is a palace, Sir, this tomb!"
"Did you not tell me, Madam, that nothing could be too magnificent? I have not considered the expense; and by the way, here is a memorandum of what the monument will cost you."
"Oh, Heavens!" exclaimed the widow, after having cast an eye over the total adding-up. "Why, this is enormous!"
"You begged me to spare no expense."
"Yes, no doubt, I desire to do things properly, but not exactly to make a fool of myself."
