the room to bid me

"Will you allow me to thank you," said she, "for the risk you ran for
me one day and of which I have just heard. It was an act that merits the
gratitude of years, and as such shall be always remembered by me. If
the old French artist with the racking cough ever desires a favor at my
hands, let him feel free to ask it. The interest I experienced in him in
the days of my trouble, will suffer no abatement in these of my joy and
prosperity." And with a look that was more than words, she gave me a
flower from the bouquet she held in her hand, and smilingly withdrew.
