— As far as her manner went, this greeting might have followed the farewell at Upton after only a day or so: “I hope your wound isn’t very painful.” / “My limping,” he answered, “is simply bad habit. I’m overcoming it.” / “That’s nice. Then you’ll be able to play polo again!” / “I should hope so, as long as ponies have four good legs.” / He wished other people could be like her, so unobtrusively, unannoyingly primeval.
