'Promise me that you will never again walk on any such place on any consideration.' 'I do.' 'That such a thing has not been before, we know.

'Now, take my arm, please.' 'Oh no, it is not necessary.' This relapse into wilfulness was because he had again connected the epithet foolish with her.
'Nonsense: it is quite necessary; it will rain again directly, and you are not half recovered.' And without more ado Knight took her hand, drew it under his arm, and held it there so firmly that she could not have removed it without a struggle.
