I thought we might all meet here to discuss the new plans. Poppy, will you take the young ladies to their room? I've had a room prepared," he continued, blushing slightly, "for I thought Daisy might like to rest a little." Poppy instantly tripped forward, and in quite a demure manner took the girls up some broad stairs, and into a long, rather low-ceilinged room on the first floor.
There were three little white beds in the room, and three toilet tables, and, in short, three sets of everything.
It was the prettiest, the brightest, the most lovely room the girls had ever seen.
It contained luxury, and neatness, and comfort, and refinement, for beautiful pictures were placed on the walls, and flowers peeped in at the windows, and the furniture was of that sort which can best accommodate girls' pretty dresses and knick-knacks. "What a room!" said Jasmine.
"Why, it's just like a girls' room! Any one would suppose Mr.Noel had sisters." Daisy began to skip about, and to poke her little fingers amongst the curiosities and treasures which were scattered broadcast.
