aissez…aller　bined　with　profound　young　vitality。　Yet

it　irritated　her　deeply。

Notwithstanding；　she　was　proud　of　him　as　he　lounged　in　his

lambent　fashion　in　her　home；　he　was　so　attentive　and　courteous

to　her　mother　and　to　herself　all　the　time。　It　was　wonderful　to

have　his　awareness　in　the　room。　She　felt　rich　and　augmented　by

it；　as　if　she　were　the　positive　attraction　and　he　the　flow

towards　her。　And　his　courtesy　and　his　agreement　might　be　all　her

mother's；　but　the　lambent　flicker　of　his　body　was　for　herself。

challenge；　and　his　eyes　gleamed　with　answer；　with　enjoyment　of

the　game。　And　he　kissed　her；　asserting　his　will　over　her；　and

she　kissed　him　back；　asserting　her　deliberate　enjoyment　of　him。
