VII
JULY UNDER the lee of the diamond mountain was a month of blanket nights and
of warm, glowing days. John and Kismine were in love. He did not know that
the little gold football (inscribed with the legend Pro deo et patria et St.
Midas) which he had
given her rested on a platinum chain next to her bosom. But it did. And she
for her part was not aware that a large sapphire which had dropped one day
from her simple coiffure was stowed away tenderly in John's jewel box.
Late one afternoon when the ruby and ermine music room was quiet, they spent
an hour there together. He held her hand and she gave him such a look that he
whispered her name aloud. She bent toward him--then hesitated.
"Did you say 'Kismine'?" she asked softly, "or----"
She had wanted to be sure. She thought she might have misunderstood.
Neither of them had ever kissed before, but in the course of an hour it
seemed to make little difference.
The afternoon drifted away. That night when a last breath of music drifted
down from the highest tower, they each lay awake, happily dreaming over the
separate minutes of the day. They had decided to be married as soon as
possible.
