^By all means。 ̄
^!I should prefer the course which will the soonest relieve you
of the incumbrance察and remove her from her present position。 ̄
^And to speak as plainly察院 she returns察 with the same studied
carelessness察 so should I。 Do I understand that you will take her
with you拭院
The iron gentleman makes an iron bow。
^Sir Leicester察 will you ring拭院 Mr Tulkinghorn steps forward
from his window and pulls the bell。 ^I had forgotten you。 Thank
you。 ̄ He makes his usual bow察 and goes quietly back again。
Mercury察swift responsive察appears察receives instructions whom to
produce察skims away察produces the aforesaid察and departs。
Rosa has been crying察and is yet in distress。 On her coming in察
the ironmaster leaves his chair察takes her arm in his察and remains
with her near the door ready to depart。
^You are taken charge of察you see察院says my Lady察in her weary
manner察 and are going away well protected。 I have mentioned
that you are a very good girl察and you have nothing to cry for。 ̄
^She seems after all察院 observes Mr Tulkinghorn察 loitering a
little forward with his hands behind him察 as if she were crying at
going away。 ̄
^Why察 she is not well´bred察 you see察院 returns Mr Rouncewell
with some quickness in his manner察as if he were glad to have the
lawyer to retort upon察 and she is an inexperienced little thing察
and knows no better。 If she had remained here察 sir察 she would
have improved察no doubt。 ̄
^No doubt察院is Mr Tulkinghorn¨s composed reply。
Rosa sobs out that she is very sorry to leave my Lady察and that
she was happy at Chesney Wold察 and has been happy with my

Lady察and that she thanks my Lady over and over again。 ^Out察you
silly little puss 院says the ironmaster察checking her in a low voice察
though not angrily察 have a spirit察if you¨re fond of Wat 院My Lady
merely waves her off with indifference察 saying察 There察 there察
child。 You are a good girl。 Go away 院 Sir Leicester has
magnificently disengaged himself from the subject察 and retired
into the sanctuary of his blue coat。 Mr Tulkinghorn察an indistinct
form against the dark street now dotted with lamps察looms in my
lady¨s view察bigger and blacker than before。
^Sir Leicester and Lady Dedlock察院says Mr Rouncewell察after a
pause of a few moments察 I beg to take my leave察with an apology
for having again troubled you察though not of my own act察on this
tiresome subject。 I can very well understand察 I assure you察 how
tiresome so small a matter must have become to Lady Dedlock。 If I
am doubtful of my dealing with it察 it is only because I did not at
first quietly exert my influence to take my young friend here away察
without troubling you at all。 But it appeared to me!I dare say
magnifying the importance of the thing!that it was respectful to
explain to you how the matter stood察 and candid to consult your
wishes and convenience。 I hope you will excuse my want of
acquaintance with the polite world。 ̄
Sir Leicester considers himself evoked out of the sanctuary by
these remarks。 ^Mr Rouncewell察院 he returns察 do not mention it。
Justifications are unnecessary察I hope察on either side。 ̄
^I am glad to hear it察Sir Leicester察and if I may by way of a last
word察revert to what I said before of my mother¨s long connection
with the family察and the worth it bespeaks on both sides察I would
point out this little instance here on my arm察who shows herself so
affectionate and faithful in parting察 and in whom my mother察 I

dare say察has done something to awaken such feelings!though of
course Lady Dedlock察 by her heartfelt interest and her genial
condescension察has done much more 院
If he means this ironically察it may be truer than he thinks。 He
points it察 however察 by no deviation from his straightforward
manner of speech察though in saying it he turns towards that part
of the dim room where my Lady sits。 Sir Leicester stands to return
his parting salutation察Mr Tulkinghorn again rings。 Mercury takes
another flight察and Mr Rouncewell and Rosa leave the house。
Then lights are brought in察 discovering Mr Tulkinghorn still
standing in his window with his hands behind him察and my Lady
still sitting with his figure before her察 closing up her view of the
night as well as of the day。 She is very pale。 Mr Tulkinghorn
observing it as she rises to retire察 thinks察 Well she may be The
power of this woman is astonishing。 She has been acting a part the
whole time。 ̄ But he can act a part too!his one unchanging
character!and as he holds the door open for this woman察 fifty
pairs of eyes察 each fifty times sharper than Sir Leicester¨s pair察
should find no flaw in him。
Lady Dedlock dines alone in her own room today。 Sir Leicester
is whipped in to the rescue of the Doodle Party察 and the
discomfiture of the Coodle Faction。 Lady Dedlock asks察on sitting
down to dinner察still deadly pale and quite an illustration of the
debilitated cousin¨s text察 whether he is gone out拭 Yes。 Whether
Mr Tulkinghorn is gone yet拭 No。 Presently she asks again察 is he
gone yet拭 No。 What is he doing拭 Mercury thinks he is writing
letters in the library。 Would my Lady wish to see him拭 Anything
but that。
But he wishes to see my Lady。 Within a few more minutes he is

reported as sending his respects察 and could my Lady please to
receive him for a word or two after her dinner拭 My Lady will
receive him now。 He comes now察 apologising for intruding察 even
by her permission察while she is at table。 When they are alone察my
Lady waves her hand to dispense with such mockeries。
^What do you want察sir拭院
^Why察Lady Dedlock察院says the lawyer察taking a chair at a little
distance from her察and slowly rubbing his rusty legs up and down察
up and down察up and down察 I am rather surprised by the course
you have taken。 ̄
^Indeed拭院
^Yes察 decidedly。 I was not prepared for it。 I consider it a
departure from our agreement and your promise。 It puts us in a
new position察 Lady Dedlock。 I feel myself under the necessity of
saying that I don¨t approve of it。 ̄
He stops in his rubbing察and looks at her察with his hands on his
knees。 Imperturbable and unchangeable as he is察there is still an
indefinable freedom in his manner察which is new察and which does
not escape this woman¨s observation。
^I do not quite understand you。 ̄
