"Go and get ready for Dr.Sandford.He will be here presently." So Daisy went, feeling very uncertain of the result of her talk, but doubtful and discouraged.

Mr.Randolph had a book in hand when she returned to the library: she could not speak to him any more; and soon indeed the doctor came, helped her into his gig, and drove off with her.
Now it was pleasant.

The fine gravelled roads in the grounds of Melbourne were in beautiful order after the rain; no dust rose yet, and all the trees and flowers were in a refreshed state of life and sweetness.

Truly it was a very hot day, but Daisy found nothing amiss.
Neither, apparently, did the doctor's good horse.

He trotted along without seeming to mind the sun; and Daisy in a good deal of glee enjoyed everything.
