So it was a good half-hour before Ursula said , '' ` Oh , Kenneth , I can not stay long -- I shall be missed . You said in your letter that you had something important to talk of . What is it ? ' '' ` My news is this , Ursula . Next Saturday morning my vessel , The Fair Lady , with her captain on board , sails at dawn from Charlottetown harbour , bound for Buenos Ayres . At this season this means a safe and sure return -- next May . ' '' ` Kenneth ! ' cried Ursula . She turned pale and burst into tears . ` How can you think of leaving me ? Oh , you are cruel ! ' '' ` Why , no , sweetheart , ' laughed Kenneth . ` The captain of The Fair Lady will take his bride with him . We 'll spend our honeymoon on the high seas , Ursula , and the cold Canadian winter under southern palms . ' '' ` You want me to run away with you , Kenneth ? ' exclaimed Ursula . '' ` Indeed , dear girl , there 's nothing else to do ! ' '' ` Oh , I can not ! ' she protested . ` My father would -- ' '' ` We 'll not consult him -- until afterward .
Come , XXXXX , you know there 's no other way .
