THREE:The Countess's eyes flamed again suddenly. Hetty, watching, was utterly puzzled. What was there in this trivial conversation that held this woman almost breathless? She had the air of one who has taken a great resolution. She seemed like a man face to face with death, who sees a way out.Tingling from her self-inflicted penance, she went to her mother��s writing table, for she had to complete her humiliation by writing to him without delay, and expressing fully and unreservedly all that had made this last half-hour so replete with the luxury of self-reproach. But the expression{216} of it was not so easy as the perception of it had been, and she made half a dozen beginnings without satisfying herself. One began, ��Oh, Mr Silverdale, how could I?�� but then she despaired of how to proceed. Another began, ��I have honestly gone over every moment of this afternoon, and I find there is not a single point in which I am not entirely to blame,�� but that was too business-like and lacked emotion. But when she was almost in despair at these futile efforts, a brilliant idea came into her head. She would write in baby-language, which would surely touch his heart when he remembered how many serious things he and she had discussed together in this pretty jesting fashion.

THREE:The party remained three days at Canton. They rose early every morning, and went on excursions through and around the city, and it is fair to say that they did not have a single idle moment. Each of the boys made careful notes of what he saw and heard, and by the end of their stay both had enough to fill a small volume. They returned to Hong-kong on the fourth day, and on the morning after their return they sat down to write the story of their adventures. But before they began writing the projected letter a discussion arose between them, which was about like this:"You must understand," resumed the Clockwork man, making a rather painful effort to fold his arms and look natural, "you must understand��click��click��that it is difficult for me to carry on conversation in this manner. Not only are my speech centres rather disordered��G-r-r-r-r-r-r��but I am not really accustomed to expressing my thoughts[Pg 143] in this way (here there was a loud spinning noise, like a sewing machine, and rising to a rapid crescendo). My brain is��so��constituted that action��except in a multiform world��is bound to be somewhat spasmodic��Pfft��Pfft��Pfft. In fact��Pfft��it is only��Pfft��because I am in such a hope��hope��hopeless condition that I am able to converse with you at all."

THREE:V"You were so anxious to get the General's letter?" I asked.
