At any rate, Rhoda and Wentworth were alone because they wanted to be alone. So they greeted the lovers cordially and passed on, making some remark on Rhoda's defiance of chaperonage. When they found an empty table and sat down, they wondered out aloud to each other what Lady Lyonesse could be doing to give a girl of Rhoda" s position and prospects and beauty so much licence. But they meant to be just as cordial in their greeting if Rhoda and Paul were still sitting there when they passed out. ...Had Rhoda not made up her mind to meet her father in the open and fight the battle out, the rencontre might have made her anxious. For people in England in her set would certainly hear of it. But as she had sent the telegram to bring her father to Italy, the rencontre meant no mere to her than it would have meant if her mother had been at the hotel. They stayed on at the restaurant until it was time to go back and dress for dinner. For dinner, Rhoda, still thinking of keeping Paul amused, suggested another gay restaurant, though she did not mean to let him go to the theatre, knowing the depressing effect that an Italian theatre has on an English- man who does not understand the language.
