“Sabrina Fairchild is about David's age, and will look very much as she does now when she is very much older, for she is one of the lucky ones in whom youth and age will never be measured by days and years. She is beautifully and tastefully and expensively dressed in travelling clothes that show off a very good figure. No one could look more chic. She is not pretty, but her face is appealing and bright with animation and reflects the inner glow of a girl in love, for Sabrina Fairchild has fallen in love with the world and is carrying on a passionate affair with it. Now, as we first see her, her face is a galaxy of complicated emotions. She is eagerly happy to see these people whom she adores, but she is shy, too, for they are not her family, and the past five years have not altogether dissipated the shyness that was ingrained from childhood. This trace of shyness, however, is not apparent to the people who watch her come towards them.”
