Not
a
cloud
on
the
day
!
"
he
said
,
meeting
me
with
a
smile
,
as
I
entered
the
bright
morning-room
,
whose
windows
opened
on
the
lawn
--
"
The
fête
will
be
a
brilliant
success
,
Geoffrey
.
"
"
Thanks
to
you
!
"
I
answered
--
"
Personally
I
am
quite
in
the
dark
as
to
your
plans
--
but
I
believe
you
can
do
nothing
that
is
not
well
done
.
"
"
You
honour
me
!
"
he
said
with
a
light
laugh
--
"
You
credit
me
then
with
better
qualities
than
the
Creator
!
For
what
He
does
,
in
the
opinion
of
the
present
generation
,
is
exceedingly
ill
done
!
Men
have
taken
to
grumbling
at
Him
instead
of
praising
Him
--
and
few
have
any
patience
with
or
liking
for
His
laws
.
"
I
laughed
.
"
Well
,
you
must
admit
those
laws
are
very
arbitrary
!
"
"
They
are
.
I
entirely
acknowledge
the
fact
!
"
We
sat
down
to
table
,
and
were
waited
upon
by
admirably-trained
servants
who
apparently
had
no
idea
of
anything
else
but
attendance
on
our
needs
.
There
was
no
trace
of
bustle
or
excitement
in
the
household
--
no
sign
whatever
to
denote
that
a
great
entertainment
was
about
to
take
place
that
day
.
It
was
not
until
the
close
of
our
meal
that
I
asked
Lucio
what
time
the
musicians
would
arrive
.
He
glanced
at
his
watch
.
"
About
noon
I
should
say
,
"
--
he
replied
--
"
Perhaps
before
.
But
whatever
their
hour
,
they
will
all
be
in
their
places
at
the
proper
moment
,
depend
upon
it
.
The
people
I
employ
--
both
musicians
and
'
artistes
'
--
know
their
business
thoroughly
,
and
are
aware
that
I
stand
no
nonsense
.
"
A
rather
sinister
smile
played
round
his
mouth
as
he
regarded
me
.
"
None
of
your
guests
can
arrive
here
till
one
o'clock
--
as
that
is
about
the
time
the
special
train
will
bring
the
first
batch
of
them
from
London
--
and
the
first
'
déjeuner
'
will
be
served
in
the
gardens
at
two
.
If
you
want
to
amuse
yourself
there
's
a
Maypole
being
put
up
on
the
large
lawn
--
you
'd
better
go
and
look
at
it
.
"
"
A
Maypole
!
"
I
exclaimed
--
"
Now
that
's
a
good
idea
!
"
"
It
used
to
be
a
good
idea
,
"
--
he
answered
--
"
When
English
lads
and
lasses
had
youth
,
innocence
,
health
and
fun
in
their
composition
,
a
dance
round
the
Maypole
hand
in
hand
,
did
them
good
and
did
nobody
harm
.
