There was only Peggy left   Peggy with that unimaginable misery in her eyes that he must drive away somehow. THERE WAS ONLY PEGGY LEFT PEGGY WITH THAT UNIMAGINABLE MISERY IN HER EYES THAT HE MUST DRIVE AWAY SOMEHOW
hings, Mr. Woods. Ah, yes, that gave you a beautiful opportunity, didn't it? So, when you were rummaging through my desk--without my permission, by the way, but that's a detail--you found both wills and concocted your little comedy? That was very clever. Oh, you think you're awfully smooth, don't you, Billy Woods? But if you had been a bit more daring, don't you see, you could have suppressed the last one and taken the money without being encumbered by me? That was rather clumsy of you, wasn't it?" Suave, gentle, sweet as honey was the speech of Margaret as she lifted her face to his, but her eyes were tragedies. "Ah!" said Billy. "Ah--yes--you think--that." He was very careful in articulating his words, was Billy, and afterward he nodded his head gravely. The universe had somehow suffered an airy dissolution like that of Prospero's masque--Selwoode and its gardens, the great globe itself, "the cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces, the solemn temples" were all as vanished wraiths. EVER LOCKED I'M VERY CARELESS ABOUT LOCKING THINGS MISTER WOODS AH YES THAT GAVE YOU A BEAUTIFUL OPPORTUNITY DIDN'T IT SO WHEN YOU WERE RUMMAGING THROUGH MY DESK WITHOUT MY PERMISSION BY THE WAY BUT THAT'S A DETAIL YOU FOUND BOTH WILLS AND CONCOCTED YOUR LITTLE COMEDY THAT WAS VERY CLEVER OH YOU THINK YOU'RE AWFULLY SMOOTH DON'T YOU BILLY WOODS BUT IF YOU HAD BEEN A BIT MORE DARING DON'T YOU SEE YOU COULD HAVE SUPPRESSED THE LAST ONE AND TAKEN THE MONEY WITHOUT BEING ENCUMBERED BY ME THAT WAS RATHER CLUMSY OF YOU WASN'T IT SUAVE GENTLE SWEET AS HONEY WAS THE SPEECH OF MARGARET AS SHE LIFTED HER FACE TO HIS BUT HER EYES WERE TRAGEDIES HA SAID BILLY AH YES YOU THINK THAT HE WAS VERY CAREFUL IN ARTICULATING HIS WORDS WAS BILLY AND AFTERWARD HE NODDED HIS HEAD GRAVELY THE UNIVERSE HAD SOMEHOW SUFFERED AN AIRY DISSOLUTION LIKE THAT OF PROSPEROUS MOSQUE CELL WOOD AND ITS GARDENS THE GREAT GLOBE ITSELF THE CLOUDCAPPED TOWERS THE GORGEOUS PALACES THE SOLEMN TEMPLES WERE ALL AS VANISHED WRAITHS
