""Ah! I thought so. I don't think she could be very polite, to anybody. Now, suppose you and I become friends.? The Castle belongs to me -- or will when Uncle Ned dies. I can order people to come or people to go; and I order you to come. You shall come up to the house with me. You shall have lunch with me; you shall really. I have got a lovely suite of rooms -- a bedroom of blue-and-silver and a little sitting-room for my own use; and you shall come there, and Jasper shall serve us both. Do you know that you are sweetly pretty? -- just like a gipsy. You are lovely! Will you come with me now? Do! come at once.""
