"O flower of all the world," thought Godfrey, seeing only Clare's
glowing dress, her hands, her perfect arms.
"I dare to love thee," triumphed Dennis Smallwood's pleasant
baritone voice.
Clare Duquesne was going back to Germany, to flirt with dapper
little German officers. A good thing that she was going. Godfrey
knew her type.
"A rotten song, that, isn't it?" he growled. "Smallwood plays a
decent game of tennis. I wish that he'd stick to it."
"He sings rather well. Ah! Mon Dieu!"
"What is it?" Godfrey was all solicitude.
"Nothing. Except that our friend Connie is going to sing, and I—I
have heard her before."
Her whisper soothed the young man's ruffled feelings. He did
what all the evening he had been intending not to do. This
connection with the Hammond ménage had gone far enough. He
said:
"Look here, do you ever care to ride, Miss Duquesne?"
"When I have a mount," she answered.
"When the birds go north again!" shrilled Connie.
"I wondered if perhaps, I've got rather a jolly little mare, a perfect
lady's hack. My mother was going to ride her, but she hasn't been
awfully fit, and hasn't been riding much. It would be a perfect charity
if you would be good enough to exercise her. If you could come up
one afternoon."
Clare smiled demurely. "Well, if Mrs. Hammond does not object,
we might all come up one afternoon."
"All?"
"Well, you can hardly expect me to go alone, surely?"
He saw that it was not possible, but a new scheme was at work in
his mind.
"Look here, I'll get the mater to ask up the Hammond girls one
afternoon next week, if you'll sing to us to-night."
Clare frowned. "You see," she confided, "I've received not exactly
orders but intimations that I am to keep in the background to-night.
I'll sing when I go to tea with your mother."
"You'll sing to-night," said Godfrey. He was determined now that
she should do so, not so much because he wanted to hear her, as
because he wanted her to do something just because he willed it.
"Just wait until Connie has sent those birds north again, and then
you shall sing."
She shook her head, but as Connie left the piano, Godfrey rose.
"Mrs. Hammond," he said, "we have had a great stroke of luck. I
have persuaded Miss Duquesne to sing."
So Mrs. Hammond had to be delighted, and Clare followed Muriel
to the piano, and whispered to her. Muriel nodded once or twice, a
frown of responsibility upon her face. She was a good accompanist,
and had played for Clare many times at Heathcroft.
Mr. Hammond, leaning back in his chair, winked at Colonel
Cartwright. "Now we shall have a treat," he said.
Muriel began to play. Her soft dress faded into the white walls of
the room. Her hair was a brooding shadow above her earnest face.
But about Clare was nothing pale nor shadowy. Her vivid dress had
caught all light and colour from the room, and held them, glowing
with barbaric splendour. She stood, not stooping over her music like
the Marshington young ladies, but by herself in front of the piano, her
head lifted proudly with the triumphant power of undaunted youth.
The accompaniment paused. The last chord hung for a moment
poised above the waiting stillness. Across the room Clare looked full
into the expectant face of Godfrey Neale.
Then she sang.
She had chosen Mignon's song, and at first she sang plaintively
the cry of the lost maiden. But, at the end of the verse, with the
sweeping melody of the refrain, she released the full power of her
voice.
