I was surprised to see that Jack¹, who was so bold in playing his match, and who had been so well able to hold his own against the Englishmen, — who had been made a hero, and had carried off his heroism² so well, — should have been so shamefaced and bashful in regard to Eva. He was like a silly boy, hardly daring to look her in the face, instead of the gallant³ captain of the band who had triumphed over all obstacles. But I perceived, though it seemed that he did not, that she was quite prepared to give herself to him, and that there was no real obstacle between him and all the flocks and herds⁵ of Little Christchurch. Not much had been seen or heard of Grundle during the match, and as far as Eva was concerned, he had succumbed⁶ as soon as Sir Kennington Oval had appeared upon the scene. He had thought so much of the English baronet as to have been cowed and quenched⁷ by his grandeur⁸. And Sir Kennington himself had, I think, been in earnest before the days of the cricket-match. But I could see now that Eva had merely played him off against Jack, thinking thereby¹⁰ to induce the younger swain to speak his mind. This had made Jack more than ever intent on beating Sir Kennington, but had not as yet had the effect which Eva had intended. “It will all come right,” I said to myself, “as soon as these Englishmen have left the island.” But then my mind reverted¹¹ to the Fixed¹² Period, and to the fast-approaching time for Crasweller’s deposition
