She pushed the portiere aside with a curved hand and gracefully separated fingers; it was a staccato movement and her body followed it after an instant's poise of hesitation, head thrust a little forward, eyes inquiring and a tentative smile, although she knew precisely who was there. You would have been aware at once that she was an actress. She entered the room with a little stride and then crossed it quickly, the train of her morning gown - it cried out of luxury with the cheapest voice - taking folds of great audacity as she bent her face in its loose mass of hair over Laura Filbert, sitting on the edge of a bamboo sofa, and said - You poor thing! Oh, you POOR thing! She took Laura's hand as she spoke, and tried to keep it; but the hand was neutral, and she let it go. It is a hand, she said to herself, in one of those quick reflections that so often visited her ready-made, that turns the merely inquiring mind away. Nothing but feeling could hold it.
