Some like Peter best and some like Wendy best , but I like her best . Suppose , to make her happy , we whisper to her in her sleep that the brats are coming back . They are really within two miles of the window now , and flying strong , but all we need whisper is that they are on the way . Let 's . It is a pity we did it , for she has started up , calling their names ; and there is no one in the room but Nana . ' O Nana , I dreamt my dear ones had come back . ' Nana had filmy eyes , but all she could do was to put her paw gently on her mistress 's lap ; and they were sitting together thus when the kennel was brought back . As Mr. Darling puts his head out at it to kiss his wife , we see that his face is more worn than of yore , but has a softer expression . He gave his hat to Liza , who took it scornfully ; for she had no imagination , and was quite incapable of understanding the motives of such a man . Outside , the crowd who had accompanied the cab home were still cheering , and he was naturally not unmoved . ` Listen to them , ' he said ; ` it is very gratifying . ' ` Lot of little boys , ' sneered Liza . ` There were several adults to-day , ' he assured her with a faint flush ; but when she tossed her head he had not a word of reproof for her . Social success had not spoilt him ; it had made him sweeter . For some time he sat half out of the kennel , talking with Mrs. Darling of this success , and pressing her hand reassuringly when she said she hoped his head would not be turned by it . ` But if I had been a weak man , ' he said . ` Good heavens , if I had been a weak man ! ' ` And , George , ' she said timidly , ` you are as full of remorse as ever , are n't you ? ' ` Full of remorse as ever , dearest ! See my punishment : living in a kennel . '
` But it is punishment , is n't it , XXXXX ?
