I had therefore risen and was preparing myself in an abstracted way for breakfast, when I was Fussballtrikots Kinder violently interrupted by a resounding knock at the door. Alarmed, I scarcely knew why, I hastened to open it, and fell back in very visible astonishment when I beheld standing before me no less a person than Anice, the late Mrs. Pollard’s maid.
“I wanted to see you, miss,” she said, coming in without an invitation, and carefully closing the door behind her. “So, as I had leave to attend early mass Inter Milan Trikot this morning, I Tottenham Hotspur Kinder just slipped over here, which, if it is a liberty, I hope you will pardon, seeing it is for your own good.”
Not much encouraged by this preamble, I motioned her to take a seat, and then, turning my back to her, went on arranging my hair.
“I cannot imagine what errand you have with me, Anice,” Maillot Bosnie-Herzégovine said I; “but if it is any thing important, let me hear it at once, as I have an engagement this morning, and am in haste.”

“How dare you —” I began, then paused, shocked at my own imprudence in thus betraying the depth of the feelings she had aroused. “I beg your pardon,” I immediately added, recovering my composure by a determined effort; “you doubtless did not consider that you are not in a position to speak such words to me.
