Excerpt from The Right Princess

"On a morning like this it looks quite like England, Maurice, does n"t it?" asked Miss Here ford wistfully.

"The spring makes you homesick, Aunt Eleanor," remarked the deep, pleasant voice of the man standing beside her in the broad window.

They were looking through heavy plate glass upon long stretches of tree-shaded sward surrounding a spacious country house on Long Island. Through fresh vistas of leaves new born they caught the sparkle of the blue waters of the Sound, and even through windows closed against the bracing breezes of early day, the fluting of the thrushes reached their ears.

"But I"m not homesick, Maurice," returned the lady decidedly. "When I made up my mind to come out, it was settled. If you could make a noble sacrifice, why, so could I."
