sonal fact of Mr. Densher. Milly had found in her
face at luncheon a feverish glitter, and it told what
she was full of. She didn't care now for Mr. Den
sher's personal fact. Mr. Densher had risen before
her only to find his proper place in her imagination
already, of a sudden, occupied. His personal fact
failed, so far as she was concerned, to be personal,
and her companion noted the failure. This could
only mean that she was full to the brim, of Sir Luke
Strett, and of what she had had from him. What
had she had from him? It was indeed now working
upward again that Milly would do well to know,
though knowledge looked stiff in the light of Susie's
glitter. It was therefore, on the whole, because
Densher's young hostess was divided from it by so
thin a partition that she continued to cling to the
Rockies.
