Elizabethan Lover
154 Words
Elizabethan LoverRodney was looking at Phillida and did not at first notice Lizbeth's entrance; and then, as Sir Harry turned towards her, he glanced up and recognised instantly the girl he caught hiding in the lilac bushes and whom he had kissed light-heartedly for spoiling his hat. She walked towards him and felt both embarrassed and amused. ‘This is my daughter, Elizabeth,’ Sir Harry announced, and two green eyes were raised to Rodney’s face. He had the strangest feeling that this moment was important to him, though why and how he had not the slightest idea.
