[Melbourne House, Volume 2 by Susan Warner]@TWC D-Link bookMelbourne House, Volume 2 CHAPTER IV 27/58
Look at them! there they went before her, putting more and more distance between them and the chair every minute.
Perhaps they would entirely forget their little convoy and be out of sight in a trifle more time. And in all that big party of pleasure, everybody engaged with somebody else, she was left with no one to speak to her, and no company at all but that of Logan and Sam.
Daisy two or three times put up her hand stealthily to her face to get rid of a tear that had found its way there.
Daisy thought at first that she would not have done so to her friends as they had done to her; but then presently she reflected what reason she had to know better and to do better, that they had not; and instead of anything like resentment, a very gentle and tender feeling of pity and kindness arose in Daisy's mind toward them.
Her hurt sense of unfriendliness quite soothed itself away; and now Daisy began to enjoy herself and the day and the party of pleasure.
