Zuleika Dobson; Or, An Oxford Love Story
·
Sir Max Beerbohm
48
“My
dear
Duke,”
said
Zuleika,
“don’t
be
so
silly.
Look
at
the
matter
sensibly.
I
know
that
lovers
don’t
try
to
regulate
their
emotions
according
to
logic;
but
they
do,
nevertheless,
unconsciously
conform
with
some
sort
of
logical
system.
I
left
off
loving
you
when
I
found
that
you
loved
me.
There
is
the
premiss.
Very
well!
Is
it
likely
that
I
shall
begin
to
love
you
again
because
you
can’t
leave
off
loving
me?”
The
Duke
groaned.
There
was
a
clatter
of
plates
outside,
and
she
whom
Zuleika
had
envied
came
to
lay
the
table
for
luncheon.
A
smile
flickered
across
Zuleika’s
lips;
and
“Not
one
garnet!”
she
murmured.
