The colour rose to the thin, radiant face. "And may we take John Boswell, too?" "Boswell? Is he here?" "Yes, with my Master Farwell." Travers rapidly put loose ends of the past together, then exclaimed: "God bless him; God bless Master Farwell!" "I only know"--Priscilla's eyes were dim--"I only know--they are good men--both!" "Yes, both! And to-night," Travers came back to the present, "I will take my wife away with me on the steamer." "A poor, vagabond wife. Nothing but a heart full of love--as baggage." "The Garden is a rich place, my love." "And one can get so much for so little there." Priscilla meant to hold to her dear old joke. "And so little--for so much!" "That's not the language of the Garden, good man!" It was so easy to play, now that Travers was leading the way from the wrecked shrine. "You are right, my girl!" Then Travers stopped and faced her, his eyes glowing with love and courage. "And to-morrow--is not yet touched!" he said.
