On the contrary.\"\n\"Oh, the contrary! He-he-he! A queer thing to say!\"\n\"Believe me! Why should I disguise it? In fact, I feel it\nstrange myself how timid, chaste and modern she is with me!\"\n\"And you, of course, are developing her . . . he-he! trying to\nprove to her that all that modesty is nonsense?\"\n\"Not at all, not at all!
