"Where waitest thou, / Lady I am to love? Thou comest not; / Thou knowest of my sad and lonely lot; / I look'd for thee ere now! / "It is the May! / And each sweet sister soul hath found its brother; / Only we two seek fondly each the other, / And, seeking, still delay. " -- _Arnold._
Queenie entered upon her new duties with an ardor that would have surprised any one acquainted with the real state of the case. If a feeling of amusement sometimes crossed her mind at the incongruity between her present position and the heiress-ship she had refused to take up, it only added zest and flavor to her work.
