so amiable察mademoiselle。 ̄
^No excuse is necessary察院 I returned察 if you wish to speak to
me。 ̄
^That is my desire察 mademoiselle。 A thousand thanks for the
permission。 I have your leave to speak。 Is it not拭院 she said察 in a
quick察natural way。
^Certainly察院said I。
^Mademoiselle察you are so amiable Listen then察if you please。 I
have left my Lady。 We could not agree。 My Lady is so high察so very
high。 Pardon Mademoiselle察 you are right 院 Her quickness
anticipated what I might have said presently察but as yet had only
thought。 ^It is not for me to come here to complain of my Lady。
But I say she is so high察so very high。 I will say not a word more。
All the world knows that。 ̄
^Go on察if you please察院said I。
^Assuredly察 mademoiselle察 I am thankful for your politeness。
Mademoiselle察I have an inexpressible desire to find service with a
young lady who is good察 accomplished察 beautiful。 You are good察
accomplished察 and beautiful as an angel。 Ah察 could I have the
honour of being your domestic 院
^I am sorry! ̄ I began。

^Do not dismiss me so soon察 mademoiselle 院 she said察 with an
involuntary contraction of her fine black eyebrows。 ^Let me hope
a moment Mademoiselle察 I know this service would be more
retired than that which I have quitted。 Well I wish that。 I know
this service would be less distinguished than that which I have
quitted。 Well I wish that。 I know that I should win less察 as to
wages here。 Good。 I am content。 ̄
^I assure you察院 said I察 quite embarrassed by the mere idea of
having such an attendant察 that I keep no maid! ̄
^Ah察mademoiselle察but why not拭Why not察when you can have
one so devoted to you Who would be enchanted to serve you察who
would be so true察 so zealous察 and so faithful察 every day
Mademoiselle察I wish with all my heart to serve you。 Do not speak
of money at present。 Take me as I am。 For nothing 院
She was so singularly earnest that I drew back察almost afraid of
her。 Without appearing to notice it察in her ardour察she still pressed
herself upon me察 speaking in a rapid subdued voice察 though
always with a certain grace and propriety。
^Mademoiselle察 I come from the South country察 where we are
quick察and where we like and dislike very strong。 My Lady was too
high for me察 I was too high for her。 It is done!past!finished
Receive me as your domestic察and I will serve you well。 I will do
more for you察 than you figure to yourself now。 Chut
mademoiselle察I will!no matter察 I will do my utmost possible察 in
all things。 If you accept my service察 you will not repent it。
Mademoiselle察you will not repent it察and I will serve you well。 You
don¨t know how well 院
There was a lowering energy in her face察as she stood looking at
me while I explained the impossibility of my engaging her without

thinking it necessary to say how very little I desired to do so察
which seemed to bring visibly before me some woman from the
streets of Paris in the reign of terror。 She heard me out without
interruption察 and then said察 with her pretty accent察 and in her
mildest voice此
^Hey察mademoiselle察I have received my answer I am sorry of
it。 But I must go elsewhere察and seek what I have not found here。
Will you graciously let me kiss your hand拭院
She looked at me more intently as she took it察 and seemed to
take note察with her momentary touch察of every vein in it。 ^I fear I
surprised you察mademoiselle察on the day of the storm拭院 she said察
with a parting curtsey。
I confessed that she had surprised us all。
^I took an oath察mademoiselle察院she said smiling察 and I wanted
to stamp it on my mind察 so that I might keep it faithfully。 And I
will Adieu察mademoiselle 院
So ended our conference察 which I was very glad to bring to a
close。 I suppose she went away from the village察for I saw her no
more察and nothing else occurred to disturb our tranquil summer
pleasures察 until six weeks were out察 and we returned home as I
began just now by saying。
At that time察 and for a good many weeks after that time察
Richard was constant in his visits。 Besides coming every Saturday
or Sunday察 and remaining with us until Monday morning察 he
sometimes rode out on horseback unexpectedly察 and passed the
evening with us察and rode back again early next day。 He was as
vivacious as ever察and told us he was very industrious察but I was
not easy in my mind about him。 It appeared to me that his
industry was all misdirected。 I could not find that it led to

anything察but the formation of delusive hopes in connection with
the suit already the pernicious cause of so much sorrow and ruin。
He had got at the core of that mystery now察he told us察and nothing
could be plainer than that the will under which he and Ada were
to take察 I don¨t know how many thousands of pounds察 must be
finally established察if there were any sense or justice in the Court
of Chancery!but O what a great if that sounded in my ears!and
that this happy conclusion could not be much longer delayed。 He
proved this to himself by all the weary arguments on that side he
had read察 and every one of them sunk him deeper in the
infatuation。 He had even begun to haunt the Court。 He told us how
he saw Miss Flite there daily察how they talked together察and he did
her little kindnesses察and how察while he laughed at her察he pitied
her from his heart。 But he never thought!never察 my poor dear察
sanguine Richard察 capable of so much happiness then察 and with
such better things before him what a fatal link was riveting
between his fresh youth and her faded age察between his free hopes
and her caged birds察 and her hungry garret察 and her wandering
mind。
Ada loved him too well察 to mistrust him much in anything he
said or did察and my Guardian察though he frequently complained of
the east wind and read more than usual in the Growlery察
preserved a strict silence on the subject。 So察 I thought察 one day
when I went to London to meet Caddy Jellyby察at her solicitation察I
would ask Richard to be in waiting for me at the coach´office察that
we might have a little talk together。 I found him there when I
arrived察and we walked away arm in arm。
^Well察Richard察院said I察as soon as I could begin to be grave with
