After a while:

"Aren't you glad I made you come here?" said Daphne
triumphantly.

I sat up and stared at her sorrowfully.

"Well?" she said defiantly.

"You have taken my breath away," I said, "Kindly return it, and I
will deal with you and your interrogatories."

"I suppose you're going to say it was you- "

"It was. I did. I have. But for me you would not. You are.
I took the rooms. I drove the car nearly the whole way down. I
got you all here. I sent the luggage on in advance."

"With the result that it got here two days after we did, and I
had to wear the same tie three days running, and go down to bathe
in patent-leather boots, thanks very much," said Berry.

Beyond saying that I was not responsible for the crass and
purblind idiocy of railway officials, I ignored this expression
of ingratitude and continued to deal with Daphne.

"You know," I said, "there are times when I tremble for you.
Only yesterday, just before dinner, I trembled for you like
anything."
