-- All this was a new idea to Corydon , and she resolved forthwith that she would begin her readings with the New Testament . Section 6 . So it went , until Thyrsis looked up with a start , and saw that the shadows were falling . It was five o'clock , and they had not stopped to eat ! Even so , they had no time to cook , but made a cold meal -- and talked all the time they were eating . Then Corydon said , `` I must start for home . '' `` You wo n't want any supper , '' said Thyrsis .
