And now, dear baroness, let us return to business, the business of Prince Shadursky!

My dear baroness, we were just speaking of you.

You, dear baroness, have experienced this in yourself.

My dear baroness, I congratulate you!

But I must go carefully and keep on my guard, and the whole thing is in my hands, dear baroness!

It is all the more creditable, too, when he, like the father of our dear baroness here, springs from the people.

I was just saying to his excellency, that you found yourself at home very readily in our little Court circle, my dear baroness.

Believe me, dear baroness, that if I had not legally sufficient facts in my hands, I would not have spoken to you of this.

That dear baroness! he exclaimed; and, turning, he found himself bowing rather stiffly to the gentleman, who had now returned, leading the runaway horse.

'Oh-anytime, dear Baroness, I'm sure-ifyou think I am good enough.'

You dare not, my dear Baroness?

A compromising meal to share, dear Baroness, but in the library of my own house it may be excused.

"My employer will find me late, I fear, my dear baroness," I began.

"My dear Baroness," he said, "my dear lady, let me wish you every happiness.

"The very thing we were saying and thinking, my dear Baroness!" interposes Lady Castlewood.
