The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from In the Cage by Henry James: "Lady Ventnor? Mrs. Bubb? Lord Rye? Dear, yes. Why they LIKE
one."
"But does one personally KNOW them?" our young lady went on, since
that was the way to speak. "I mean socially, don't you know?--as
you know ME."
"They're not so nice as you!" Mrs. Jordan charmingly cried. "But I
SHALL see more and more of them."
Ah this was the old story. "But how soon?"
"Why almost any day. Of course," Mrs. Jordan honestly added,
"they're nearly always out."
"Then why do they want flowers all over?"
