+I am a rather elderly man .
+The nature of my avocations for the last thirty years has brought me into more than ordinary contact with what would seem an interesting and somewhat singular set of men , of whom as yet nothing that I know of has ever been written : -- I mean the law-copyists or scriveners .
+I have known very many of them , professionally and privately , and if I pleased , could relate divers histories , at which good-natured gentlemen might smile , and sentimental souls might weep .
+But I waive the biographies of all other scriveners for a few passages in the life of Bartleby , who was a scrivener of the strangest I ever saw or heard of .
+While of other law-copyists I might write the complete life , of Bartleby nothing of that sort can be done .
+I believe that no materials exist for a full and satisfactory biography of this man .
+It is an irreparable loss to literature .
+Bartleby was one of those beings of whom nothing is ascertainable , except from the original sources , and in his case those are very small .
+What my own astonished eyes saw of Bartleby , _ that _ is all I know of him , except , indeed , one vague report which will appear in the sequel .
+Ere introducing the scrivener , as he first appeared to me , it is fit I make some mention of myself , my _ employees _ , my business , my chambers , and general surroundings ; because some such description is indispensable to an adequate understanding of the chief character about to be presented .
+Imprimis : I am a man who , from his youth upwards , has been filled with a profound conviction that the easiest way of life is the best .
+Hence , though I belong to a profession proverbially energetic and nervous , even to turbulence , at times , yet nothing of that sort have I ever suffered to invade my peace .
+I am one of those unambitious lawyers who never addresses a jury , or in any way draws down public applause ; but in the cool tranquility of a snug retreat , do a snug business among rich men 's bonds and mortgages and title-deeds .
+All who know me , consider me an eminently _ safe _ man .
+The late John Jacob Astor , a personage little given to poetic enthusiasm , had no hesitation in pronouncing my first grand point to be prudence ; my next , method .
+I do not speak it in vanity , but simply record the fact , that I was not unemployed in my profession by the late John Jacob Astor ; a name which , I admit , I love to repeat , for it hath a rounded and orbicular sound to it , and rings like unto bullion .
+I will freely add , that I was not insensible to the late John Jacob Astor 's good opinion .
+Some time prior to the period at which this little history begins , my avocations had been largely increased .
+The good old office , now extinct in the State of New York , of a Master in Chancery , had been conferred upon me .
+It was not a very arduous office , but very pleasantly remunerative .
+I seldom lose my temper ; much more seldom indulge in dangerous indignation at wrongs and outrages ; but I must be permitted to be rash here and declare , that I consider the sudden and violent abrogation of the office of Master in Chancery , by the new Constitution , as a -- premature act ; inasmuch as I had counted upon a life-lease of the profits , whereas I only received those of a few short years .
+But this is by the way .
+My chambers were up stairs at No .
+-- Wall-street .
+At one end they looked upon the white wall of the interior of a spacious sky-light shaft , penetrating the building from top to bottom .
+This view might have been considered rather tame than otherwise , deficient in what landscape painters call " life . "
+But if so , the view from the other end of my chambers offered , at least , a contrast , if nothing more .
+In that direction my windows commanded an unobstructed view of a lofty brick wall , black by age and everlasting shade ; which wall required no spy-glass to bring out its lurking beauties , but for the benefit of all near-sighted spectators , was pushed up to within ten feet of my window panes .
+Owing to the great height of the surrounding buildings , and my chambers being on the second floor , the interval between this wall and mine not a little resembled a huge square cistern .
+At the period just preceding the advent of Bartleby , I had two persons as copyists in my employment , and a promising lad as an office-boy .
+First , Turkey ; second , Nippers ; third , Ginger Nut .
+These may seem names , the like of which are not usually found in the Directory .
+In truth they were nicknames , mutually conferred upon each other by my three clerks , and were deemed expressive of their respective persons or characters .
+Turkey was a short , pursy Englishman of about my own age , that is , somewhere not far from sixty .
+In the morning , one might say , his face was of a fine florid hue , but after twelve o'clock , meridian -- his dinner hour -- it blazed like a grate full of Christmas coals ; and continued blazing -- but , as it were , with a gradual wane -- till 6 o'clock , P.M. or thereabouts , after which I saw no more of the proprietor of the face , which gaining its meridian with the sun , seemed to set with it , to rise , culminate , and decline the following day , with the like regularity and undiminished glory .
+There are many singular coincidences I have known in the course of my life , not the least among which was the fact , that exactly when Turkey displayed his fullest beams from his red and radiant countenance , just then , too , at that critical moment , began the daily period when I considered his business capacities as seriously disturbed for the remainder of the twenty-four hours .
+Not that he was absolutely idle , or averse to business then ; far from it .
+The difficulty was , he was apt to be altogether too energetic .
+There was a strange , inflamed , flurried , flighty recklessness of activity about him .
+He would be incautious in dipping his pen into his inkstand .
+All his blots upon my documents , were dropped there after twelve o'clock , meridian .
+Indeed , not only would he be reckless and sadly given to making blots in the afternoon , but some days he went further , and was rather noisy .
+At such times , too , his face flamed with augmented blazonry , as if cannel coal had been heaped on anthracite .
+He made an unpleasant racket with his chair ; spilled his sand-box ; in mending his pens , impatiently split them all to pieces , and threw them on the floor in a sudden passion ; stood up and leaned over his table , boxing his papers about in a most indecorous manner , very sad to behold in an elderly man like him .
+Nevertheless , as he was in many ways a most valuable person to me , and all the time before twelve o'clock , meridian , was the quickest , steadiest creature too , accomplishing a great deal of work in a style not easy to be matched -- for these reasons , I was willing to overlook his eccentricities , though indeed , occasionally , I remonstrated with him .
+I did this very gently , however , because , though the civilest , nay , the blandest and most reverential of men in the morning , yet in the afternoon he was disposed , upon provocation , to be slightly rash with his tongue , in fact , insolent .
+Now , valuing his morning services as I did , and resolved not to lose them ; yet , at the same time made uncomfortable by his inflamed ways after twelve o'clock ; and being a man of peace , unwilling by my admonitions to call forth unseemly retorts from him ; I took upon me , one Saturday noon ( he was always worse on Saturdays ) , to hint to him , very kindly , that perhaps now that he was growing old , it might be well to abridge his labors ; in short , he need not come to my chambers after twelve o'clock , but , dinner over , had best go home to his lodgings and rest himself till teatime .
+But no ; he insisted upon his afternoon devotions .
+His countenance became intolerably fervid , as he oratorically assured me -- gesticulating with a long ruler at the other end of the room -- that if his services in the morning were useful , how indispensable , then , in the afternoon ?
+" With submission , sir , " said Turkey on this occasion , " I consider myself your right-hand man .
+In the morning I but marshal and deploy my columns ; but in the afternoon I put myself at their head , and gallantly charge the foe , thus ! "
+-- and he made a violent thrust with the ruler .
+" But the blots , Turkey , " intimated I. " True , -- but , with submission , sir , behold these hairs !
+I am getting old .
+Surely , sir , a blot or two of a warm afternoon is not to be severely urged against gray hairs .
+Old age -- even if it blot the page -- is honorable .
+With submission , sir , we _ both _ are getting old . "
+This appeal to my fellow-feeling was hardly to be resisted .
+At all events , I saw that go he would not .
+So I made up my mind to let him stay , resolving , nevertheless , to see to it , that during the afternoon he had to do with my less important papers .
+Nippers , the second on my list , was a whiskered , sallow , and , upon the whole , rather piratical-looking young man of about five and twenty .
+I always deemed him the victim of two evil powers -- ambition and indigestion .
+The ambition was evinced by a certain impatience of the duties of a mere copyist , an unwarrantable usurpation of strictly professional affairs , such as the original drawing up of legal documents .
+The indigestion seemed betokened in an occasional nervous testiness and grinning irritability , causing the teeth to audibly grind together over mistakes committed in copying ; unnecessary maledictions , hissed , rather than spoken , in the heat of business ; and especially by a continual discontent with the height of the table where he worked .
+Though of a very ingenious mechanical turn , Nippers could never get this table to suit him .
+He put chips under it , blocks of various sorts , bits of pasteboard , and at last went so far as to attempt an exquisite adjustment by final pieces of folded blotting paper .
+But no invention would answer .
+If , for the sake of easing his back , he brought the table lid at a sharp angle well up towards his chin , and wrote there like a man using the steep roof of a Dutch house for his desk : -- then he declared that it stopped the circulation in his arms .
+If now he lowered the table to his waistbands , and stooped over it in writing , then there was a sore aching in his back .
+In short , the truth of the matter was , Nippers knew not what he wanted .
+Or , if he wanted any thing , it was to be rid of a scrivener 's table altogether .
+Among the manifestations of his diseased ambition was a fondness he had for receiving visits from certain ambiguous-looking fellows in seedy coats , whom he called his clients .
+Indeed I was aware that not only was he , at times , considerable of a ward-politician , but he occasionally did a little business at the Justices ' courts , and was not unknown on the steps of the Tombs .
+I have good reason to believe , however , that one individual who called upon him at my chambers , and who , with a grand air , he insisted was his client , was no other than a dun , and the alleged title-deed , a bill .
+But with all his failings , and the annoyances he caused me , Nippers , like his compatriot Turkey , was a very useful man to me ; wrote a neat , swift hand ; and , when he chose , was not deficient in a gentlemanly sort of deportment .
+Added to this , he always dressed in a gentlemanly sort of way ; and so , incidentally , reflected credit upon my chambers .
+Whereas with respect to Turkey , I had much ado to keep him from being a reproach to me .
+His clothes were apt to look oily and smell of eating-houses .
+He wore his pantaloons very loose and baggy in summer .
+His coats were execrable ; his hat not to be handled .
+But while the hat was a thing of indifference to me , inasmuch as his natural civility and deference , as a dependent Englishman , always led him to doff it the moment he entered the room , yet his coat was another matter .
+Concerning his coats , I reasoned with him ; but with no effect .
+The truth was , I suppose , that a man of so small an income , could not afford to sport such a lustrous face and a lustrous coat at one and the same time .
+As Nippers once observed , Turkey 's money went chiefly for red ink .
+One winter day I presented Turkey with a highly-respectable looking coat of my own , a padded gray coat , of a most comfortable warmth , and which buttoned straight up from the knee to the neck .
+I thought Turkey would appreciate the favor , and abate his rashness and obstreperousness of afternoons .
+But no .
+I verily believe that buttoning himself up in so downy and blanket-like a coat had a pernicious effect upon him ; upon the same principle that too much oats are bad for horses .
+In fact , precisely as a rash , restive horse is said to feel his oats , so Turkey felt his coat .
+It made him insolent .
+He was a man whom prosperity harmed .

+I MAKING GOOD WITH MOTHER When men began to build cities vertically instead of horizontally there passed from our highways a picturesque figure , and from our language an expressive figure of speech .
+That oily-tongued , persuasive , soft-stepping stranger in the rusty Prince Albert and the black string tie who had been wont to haunt our back steps and front offices with his carefully wrapped bundle , retreated in bewildered defeat before the clanging blows of steel on steel that meant the erection of the first twenty-story skyscraper .
+" As slick , " we used to say , " as a lightning-rod agent . "
+Of what use his wares on a building whose tower was robed in clouds and which used the chain lightning for a necklace ?
+The Fourth Avenue antique dealer had another curio to add to his collection of andirons , knockers , snuff boxes and warming pans .
+But even as this quaint figure vanished there sprang up a new and glittering one to take his place .
+He stood framed in the great plate-glass window of the very building which had brought about the defeat of his predecessor .
+A miracle of close shaving his face was , and a marvel of immaculateness his linen .
+Dapper he was , and dressy , albeit inclined to glittering effects and a certain plethory at the back of the neck .
+Back of him stood shining shapes that reflected his glory in enamel , and brass , and glass .
+His language was floral , but choice ; his talk was of gearings and bearings and cylinders and magnetos ; his method differed from that of him who went before as the method of a skilled aëronaut differs from that of the man who goes over Niagara in a barrel .
+And as he multiplied and spread over the land we coined a new figure of speech .
+" Smooth ! " we chuckled .
+" As smooth as an automobile salesman . "
+But even as we listened , fascinated by his fluent verbiage there grew within us a certain resentment .
+Familiarity with his glittering wares bred a contempt of them , so that he fell to speaking of them as necessities instead of luxuries .
+He juggled figures , and thought nothing of four of them in a row .
+We looked at our five-thousand-dollar salary , so strangely shrunken and thin now , and even as we looked we saw that the method of the unctuous , anxious stranger had become antiquated in its turn .
+Then from his ashes emerged a new being .
+Neither urger nor spellbinder he .
+The twentieth century was stamped across his brow , and on his lips was ever the word " Service . "
+Silent , courteous , watchful , alert , he listened , while you talked .
+His method , in turn , made that of the silk-lined salesman sound like the hoarse hoots of the ballyhoo man at a county fair .
+Blithely he accepted five hundred thousand dollars and gave in return -- a promise .
+And when we would search our soul for a synonym to express all that was low-voiced , and suave , and judicious , and patient , and sure , we began to say , " As alert as an advertising expert . "
+Jock McChesney , looking as fresh and clear-eyed as only twenty-one and a cold shower can make one look , stood in the doorway of his mother 's bedroom .
+His toilette had halted abruptly at the bathrobe stage .
+One of those bulky garments swathed his slim figure , while over his left arm hung a gray tweed Norfolk coat .
+From his right hand dangled a pair of trousers , in pattern a modish black-and-white .
+Jock regarded the gray garment on his arm with moody eyes .
+" Well , I 'd like to know what 's the matter with it ! " he demanded , a trifle irritably .
+Emma McChesney , in the act of surveying her back hair in the mirror , paused , hand glass poised half way , to regard her son .
+" All right , " she answered cheerfully .
+" I 'll tell you .
+It 's too young . "
+" Young ! "
+He held it at arm 's length and stared at it .
+" What d'you mean -- young ? "
+Emma McChesney came forward , wrapping the folds of her kimono about her .
+She took the disputed garment in one hand and held it aloft .
+" I know that you look like a man on a magazine cover in it .
+But Norfolk suits spell tennis , and seashore , and elegant leisure .
+And you 're going out this morning , Son , to interview business men .
+You 're going to try to impress the advertising world with the fact that it needs your expert services .
+You walk into a business office in a Norfolk suit , and everybody from the office boy to the president of the company will ask you what your score is . "
+She tossed it back over his arm .
+" I 'll wear the black and white , " said Jock resignedly , and turned toward his own room .
+At his doorway he paused and raised his voice slightly : " For that matter , they 're looking for young men .
+Everybody 's young .
+Why , the biggest men in the advertising game are just kids . "
+He disappeared within his room , still talking .
+" Look at McQuirk , advertising manager of the Combs Car Company .
+He 's so young he has to disguise himself in bone-trimmed eye-glasses with a black ribbon to get away with it .
+Look at Hopper , of the Berg , Shriner Company .
+Pulls down ninety thousand a year , and if he 's thirty-five I 'll -- " " Well , you asked my advice , " interrupted his mother 's voice with that muffled effect which is caused by a skirt being slipped over the head , " and I gave it .
+Wear a white duck sailor suit with blue anchors and carry a red tin pail and a shovel , if you want to look young .
+Only get into it in a jiffy , Son , because breakfast will be ready in ten minutes .
+I can tell by the way Annie 's crashing the cups .
+So step lively if you want to pay your lovely mother 's subway fare . "
+Ten minutes later the slim young figure , in its English-fitting black and white , sat opposite Emma McChesney at the breakfast table and between excited gulps of coffee outlined a meteoric career in his chosen field .
+And the more he talked and the rosier his figures of speech became , the more silent and thoughtful fell his mother .
+She wondered if five o'clock would find a droop to the set of those young shoulders ; if the springy young legs in their absurdly scant modish trousers would have lost some of their elasticity ; if the buoyant step in the flat-heeled shoes would not drag a little .
+Thirteen years of business experience had taught her to swallow smilingly the bitter pill of rebuff .
+But this boy was to experience his first dose to-day .
+She felt again that sensation of almost physical nausea -- that sickness of heart and spirit which had come over her when she had met her first sneer and intolerant shrug .
+It had been her maiden trip on the road for the T.A. Buck Featherloom Petticoat Company .
+She was secretary of that company now , and moving spirit in its policy .
+But the wound of that first insult still ached .
+A word from her would have placed the boy and saved him from curt refusals .
+She withheld that word .
+He must fight his fight alone .
+" I want to write the kind of ad , " Jock was saying excitedly , " that you see 'em staring at in the subways , and street cars and L-trains .
+I want to sit across the aisle and watch their up-turned faces staring at that oblong , and reading it aloud to each other . "
+" Is n't that an awfully obvious necktie you 're wearing , Jock ? " inquired his mother irrelevantly .
+" This ?
+You ought to see some of them .
+This is a Quaker stock in comparison . "
+He glanced down complacently at the vivid-hued silken scarf that the season 's mode demanded .
+Immediately he was off again .
+" And the first thing you know , Mrs. McChesney , ma'am , we 'll have a motor truck backing up at the door once a month and six strong men carrying my salary to the freight elevator in sacks . "
+Emma McChesney buttered her bit of toast , then looked up to remark quietly : " Had n't you better qualify for the trial heats , Jock , before you jump into the finals ? "
+" Trial heats ! " sneered Jock .
+" They 're poky .
+I want real money .
+Now !
+It is n't enough to be just well-to-do in these days .
+It needs money .
+I want to be rich !
+Not just prosperous , but rich !
+So rich that I can let the bath soap float around in the water without any pricks of conscience .
+So successful that they 'll say , ' And he 's a mere boy , too .
+Imagine ! ' "
+And , " Jock dear , " Emma McChesney said , " you 've still to learn that plans and ambitions are like soap bubbles .
+The harder you blow and the more you inflate them , the quicker they burst .
+Plans and ambitions are things to be kept locked away in your heart , Son , with no one but yourself to take an occasional peep at them . "
+Jock leaned over the table , with his charming smile .
+" You 're a jealous blonde , " he laughed .
+" Because I 'm going to be a captain of finance -- an advertising wizard ; you 're afraid I 'll grab the glory all away from you . "
+[ Illustration : " ' You 're a jealous blond , ' he said " ] Mrs. McChesney folded her napkin and rose .
+She looked unbelievably young , and trim , and radiant , to be the mother of this boasting boy .
+" I 'm not afraid , " she drawled , a wicked little glint in her blue eyes .
+" You see , they 'll only regard your feats and say , ' H 'm , no wonder .
+He ought to be able to sell ice to an Eskimo .
+His mother was Emma McChesney . ' "
+And then , being a modern mother , she donned smart autumn hat and tailored suit coat and stood ready to reach her office by nine-thirty .
+But because she was as motherly as she was modern she swung open the door between kitchen and dining-room to advise with Annie , the adept .
+" Lamb chops to-night , eh , Annie ?
+And sweet potatoes .
+Jock loves 'em .

+_ One _ DREAMS Night fell .
+The red waters of the swamp grew sinister and sullen .
+The tall pines lost their slimness and stood in wide blurred blotches all across the way , and a great shadowy bird arose , wheeled and melted , murmuring , into the black-green sky .
+The boy wearily dropped his heavy bundle and stood still , listening as the voice of crickets split the shadows and made the silence audible .
+A tear wandered down his brown cheek .
+They were at supper now , he whispered -- the father and old mother , away back yonder beyond the night .
+They were far away ; they would never be as near as once they had been , for he had stepped into the world .
+And the cat and Old Billy -- ah , but the world was a lonely thing , so wide and tall and empty !
+And so bare , so bitter bare !
+Somehow he had never dreamed of the world as lonely before ; he had fared forth to beckoning hands and luring , and to the eager hum of human voices , as of some great , swelling music .
+Yet now he was alone ; the empty night was closing all about him here in a strange land , and he was afraid .
+The bundle with his earthly treasure had hung heavy and heavier on his shoulder ; his little horde of money was tightly wadded in his sock , and the school lay hidden somewhere far away in the shadows .
+He wondered how far it was ; he looked and harkened , starting at his own heartbeats , and fearing more and more the long dark fingers of the night .
+Then of a sudden up from the darkness came music .
+It was human music , but of a wildness and a weirdness that startled the boy as it fluttered and danced across the dull red waters of the swamp .
+He hesitated , then impelled by some strange power , left the highway and slipped into the forest of the swamp , shrinking , yet following the song hungrily and half forgetting his fear .
+A harsher , shriller note struck in as of many and ruder voices ; but above it flew the first sweet music , birdlike , abandoned , and the boy crept closer .
+The cabin crouched ragged and black at the edge of black waters .
+An old chimney leaned drunkenly against it , raging with fire and smoke , while through the chinks winked red gleams of warmth and wild cheer .
+With a revel of shouting and noise , the music suddenly ceased .
+Hoarse staccato cries and peals of laughter shook the old hut , and as the boy stood there peering through the black trees , abruptly the door flew open and a flood of light illumined the wood .
+Amid this mighty halo , as on clouds of flame , a girl was dancing .
+She was black , and lithe , and tall , and willowy .
+Her garments twined and flew around the delicate moulding of her dark , young , half-naked limbs .
+A heavy mass of hair clung motionless to her wide forehead .
+Her arms twirled and flickered , and body and soul seemed quivering and whirring in the poetry of her motion .
+As she danced she sang .
+He heard her voice as before , fluttering like a bird 's in the full sweetness of her utter music .
+It was no tune nor melody , it was just formless , boundless music .
+The boy forgot himself and all the world besides .
+All his darkness was sudden light ; dazzled he crept forward , bewildered , fascinated , until with one last wild whirl the elf-girl paused .
+The crimson light fell full upon the warm and velvet bronze of her face -- her midnight eyes were aglow , her full purple lips apart , her half hid bosom panting , and all the music dead .
+Involuntarily the boy gave a gasping cry and awoke to swamp and night and fire , while a white face , drawn , red-eyed , peered outward from some hidden throng within the cabin .
+" Who 's that ? " a harsh voice cried .
+" Where ? "
+" Who is it ? " and pale crowding faces blurred the light .
+The boy wheeled blindly and fled in terror stumbling through the swamp , hearing strange sounds and feeling stealthy creeping hands and arms and whispering voices .
+On he toiled in mad haste , struggling toward the road and losing it until finally beneath the shadows of a mighty oak he sank exhausted .
+There he lay a while trembling and at last drifted into dreamless sleep .
+It was morning when he awoke and threw a startled glance upward to the twisted branches of the oak that bent above , sifting down sunshine on his brown face and close curled hair .
+Slowly he remembered the loneliness , the fear and wild running through the dark .
+He laughed in the bold courage of day and stretched himself .
+Then suddenly he bethought him again of that vision of the night -- the waving arms and flying limbs of the girl , and her great black eyes looking into the night and calling him .
+He could hear her now , and hear that wondrous savage music .
+Had it been real ?
+Had he dreamed ?
+Or had it been some witch-vision of the night , come to tempt and lure him to his undoing ?
+Where was that black and flaming cabin ?
+Where was the girl -- the soul that had called him ?
+_ She _ must have been real ; she had to live and dance and sing ; he must again look into the mystery of her great eyes .
+And he sat up in sudden determination , and , lo !
+gazed straight into the very eyes of his dreaming .
+She sat not four feet from him , leaning against the great tree , her eyes now languorously abstracted , now alert and quizzical with mischief .
+She seemed but half-clothed , and her warm , dark flesh peeped furtively through the rent gown ; her thick , crisp hair was frowsy and rumpled , and the long curves of her bare young arms gleamed in the morning sunshine , glowing with vigor and life .
+A little mocking smile came and sat upon her lips .
+" What you run for ? " she asked , with dancing mischief in her eyes .
+" Because -- " he hesitated , and his cheeks grew hot .
+" I knows , " she said , with impish glee , laughing low music .
+" Why ? " he challenged , sturdily .
+" You was a-feared . "
+He bridled .
+" Well , I reckon you 'd be a-feared if you was caught out in the black dark all alone . "
+" Pooh ! " she scoffed and hugged her knees .
+" Pooh !
+I 've stayed out all alone heaps o ' nights . "
+He looked at her with a curious awe .
+" I do n't believe you , " he asserted ; but she tossed her head and her eyes grew scornful .
+" Who 's a-feared of the dark ?
+I love night . "
+Her eyes grew soft .
+He watched her silently , till , waking from her daydream , she abruptly asked : " Where you from ? "
+" Georgia . "
+" Where 's that ? "
+He looked at her in surprise , but she seemed matter-of-fact .
+" It 's away over yonder , " he answered .
+" Behind where the sun comes up ? "
+" Oh , no ! "
+" Then it ai n't so far , " she declared .
+" I knows where the sun rises , and I knows where it sets . "
+She looked up at its gleaming splendor glinting through the leaves , and , noting its height , announced abruptly : " I ' se hungry . "
+" So 'm I , " answered the boy , fumbling at his bundle ; and then , timidly : " Will you eat with me ? "
+" Yes , " she said , and watched him with eager eyes .
+Untying the strips of cloth , he opened his box , and disclosed chicken and biscuits , ham and corn-bread .
+She clapped her hands in glee .
+" Is there any water near ? " he asked .
+Without a word , she bounded up and flitted off like a brown bird , gleaming dull-golden in the sun , glancing in and out among the trees , till she paused above a tiny black pool , and then came tripping and swaying back with hands held cupwise and dripping with cool water .
+" Drink , " she cried .
+Obediently he bent over the little hands that seemed so soft and thin .
+He took a deep draught ; and then to drain the last drop , his hands touched hers and the shock of flesh first meeting flesh startled them both , while the water rained through .
+A moment their eyes looked deep into each other 's -- a timid , startled gleam in hers ; a wonder in his .
+Then she said dreamily : " We ' se known us all our lives , and -- before , ai n't we ? "
+He hesitated .
+" Ye -- es -- I reckon , " he slowly returned .
+And then , brightening , he asked gayly : " And we 'll be friends always , wo n't we ? "
+" Yes , " she said at last , slowly and solemnly , and another brief moment they stood still .
+Then the mischief danced in her eyes , and a song bubbled on her lips .
+She hopped to the tree .
+" Come -- eat ! " she cried .
+And they nestled together amid the big black roots of the oak , laughing and talking while they ate .
+" What 's over there ? " he asked pointing northward .
+" Cresswell 's big house . "
+" And yonder to the west ? "
+" The school . "
+He started joyfully .
+" The school !
+What school ? "
+" Old Miss ' School . "
+" Miss Smith 's school ? "
+" Yes . "
+The tone was disdainful .
+" Why , that 's where I 'm going .
+I was a-feared it was a long way off ; I must have passed it in the night . "
+" I hate it ! " cried the girl , her lips tense .
+" But I 'll be so near , " he explained .
+" And why do you hate it ? "
+" Yes -- you 'll be near , " she admitted ; " that 'll be nice ; but -- " she glanced westward , and the fierce look faded .
+Soft joy crept to her face again , and she sat once more dreaming .
+" Yon way 's nicest , " she said .
+" Why , what 's there ? "
+" The swamp , " she said mysteriously .
+" And what 's beyond the swamp ? "
+She crouched beside him and whispered in eager , tense tones : " Dreams ! "
+He looked at her , puzzled .

+CHAP .
+I. Mary , the heroine of this fiction , was the daughter of Edward , who married Eliza , a gentle , fashionable girl , with a kind of indolence in her temper , which might be termed negative good-nature : her virtues , indeed , were all of that stamp .
+She carefully attended to the _ shews _ of things , and her opinions , I should have said prejudices , were such as the generality approved of .
+She was educated with the expectation of a large fortune , of course became a mere machine : the homage of her attendants made a great part of her puerile amusements , and she never imagined there were any relative duties for her to fulfil : notions of her own consequence , by these means , were interwoven in her mind , and the years of youth spent in acquiring a few superficial accomplishments , without having any taste for them .
+When she was first introduced into the polite circle , she danced with an officer , whom she faintly wished to be united to ; but her father soon after recommending another in a more distinguished rank of life , she readily submitted to his will , and promised to love , honour , and obey , ( a vicious fool , ) as in duty bound .
+While they resided in London , they lived in the usual fashionable style , and seldom saw each other ; nor were they much more sociable when they wooed rural felicity for more than half the year , in a delightful country , where Nature , with lavish hand , had scattered beauties around ; for the master , with brute , unconscious gaze , passed them by unobserved , and sought amusement in country sports .
+He hunted in the morning , and after eating an immoderate dinner , generally fell asleep : this seasonable rest enabled him to digest the cumbrous load ; he would then visit some of his pretty tenants ; and when he compared their ruddy glow of health with his wife 's countenance , which even rouge could not enliven , it is not necessary to say which a _ gourmand _ would give the preference to .
+Their vulgar dance of spirits were infinitely more agreeable to his fancy than her sickly , die-away languor .
+Her voice was but the shadow of a sound , and she had , to complete her delicacy , so relaxed her nerves , that she became a mere nothing .
+Many such noughts are there in the female world !
+yet she had a good opinion of her own merit , -- truly , she said long prayers , -- and sometimes read her Week 's Preparation : she dreaded that horrid place vulgarly called _ hell _ , the regions below ; but whether her 's was a mounting spirit , I can not pretend to determine ; or what sort of a planet would have been proper for her , when she left her _ material _ part in this world , let metaphysicians settle ; I have nothing to say to her unclothed spirit .
+As she was sometimes obliged to be alone , or only with her French waiting-maid , she sent to the metropolis for all the new publications , and while she was dressing her hair , and she could turn her eyes from the glass , she ran over those most delightful substitutes for bodily dissipation , novels .
+I say bodily , or the animal soul , for a rational one can find no employment in polite circles .
+The glare of lights , the studied inelegancies of dress , and the compliments offered up at the shrine of false beauty , are all equally addressed to the senses .
+When she could not any longer indulge the caprices of fancy one way , she tried another .
+The Platonic Marriage , Eliza Warwick , and some other interesting tales were perused with eagerness .
+Nothing could be more natural than the developement of the passions , nor more striking than the views of the human heart .
+What delicate struggles !
+and uncommonly pretty turns of thought !
+The picture that was found on a bramble-bush , the new sensitive-plant , or tree , which caught the swain by the upper-garment , and presented to his ravished eyes a portrait .
+-- Fatal image !
+-- It planted a thorn in a till then insensible heart , and sent a new kind of a knight-errant into the world .
+But even this was nothing to the catastrophe , and the circumstance on which it hung , the hornet settling on the sleeping lover 's face .
+What a _ heart-rending _ accident !
+She planted , in imitation of those susceptible souls , a rose bush ; but there was not a lover to weep in concert with her , when she watered it with her tears .
+-- Alas !
+Alas !
+If my readers would excuse the sportiveness of fancy , and give me credit for genius , I would go on and tell them such tales as would force the sweet tears of sensibility to flow in copious showers down beautiful cheeks , to the discomposure of rouge , & c. & c. Nay , I would make it so interesting , that the fair peruser should beg the hair-dresser to settle the curls himself , and not interrupt her .
+She had besides another resource , two most beautiful dogs , who shared her bed , and reclined on cushions near her all the day .
+These she watched with the most assiduous care , and bestowed on them the warmest caresses .
+This fondness for animals was not that kind of _ attendrissement _ which makes a person take pleasure in providing for the subsistence and comfort of a living creature ; but it proceeded from vanity , it gave her an opportunity of lisping out the prettiest French expressions of ecstatic fondness , in accents that had never been attuned by tenderness .
+She was chaste , according to the vulgar acceptation of the word , that is , she did not make any actual _ faux pas _ ; she feared the world , and was indolent ; but then , to make amends for this seeming self-denial , she read all the sentimental novels , dwelt on the love-scenes , and , had she thought while she read , her mind would have been contaminated ; as she accompanied the lovers to the lonely arbors , and would walk with them by the clear light of the moon .
+She wondered her husband did not stay at home .
+She was jealous -- why did he not love her , sit by her side , squeeze her hand , and look unutterable things ?
+Gentle reader , I will tell thee ; they neither of them felt what they could not utter .
+I will not pretend to say that they always annexed an idea to a word ; but they had none of those feelings which are not easily analyzed .
+CHAP .
+II .
+In due time she brought forth a son , a feeble babe ; and the following year a daughter .
+After the mother 's throes she felt very few sentiments of maternal tenderness : the children were given to nurses , and she played with her dogs .
+Want of exercise prevented the least chance of her recovering strength ; and two or three milk-fevers brought on a consumption , to which her constitution tended .
+Her children all died in their infancy , except the two first , and she began to grow fond of the son , as he was remarkably handsome .
+For years she divided her time between the sofa , and the card-table .
+She thought not of death , though on the borders of the grave ; nor did any of the duties of her station occur to her as necessary .
+Her children were left in the nursery ; and when Mary , the little blushing girl , appeared , she would send the awkward thing away .
+To own the truth , she was awkward enough , in a house without any play-mates ; for her brother had been sent to school , and she scarcely knew how to employ herself ; she would ramble about the garden , admire the flowers , and play with the dogs .
+An old house-keeper told her stories , read to her , and , at last , taught her to read .
+Her mother talked of enquiring for a governess when her health would permit ; and , in the interim desired her own maid to teach her French .
+As she had learned to read , she perused with avidity every book that came in her way .
+Neglected in every respect , and left to the operations of her own mind , she considered every thing that came under her inspection , and learned to think .
+She had heard of a separate state , and that angels sometimes visited this earth .
+She would sit in a thick wood in the park , and talk to them ; make little songs addressed to them , and sing them to tunes of her own composing ; and her native wood notes wild were sweet and touching .
+Her father always exclaimed against female acquirements , and was glad that his wife 's indolence and ill health made her not trouble herself about them .
+She had besides another reason , she did not wish to have a fine tall girl brought forward into notice as her daughter ; she still expected to recover , and figure away in the gay world .
+Her husband was very tyrannical and passionate ; indeed so very easily irritated when inebriated , that Mary was continually in dread lest he should frighten her mother to death ; her sickness called forth all Mary 's tenderness , and exercised her compassion so continually , that it became more than a match for self-love , and was the governing propensity of her heart through life .
+She was violent in her temper ; but she saw her father 's faults , and would weep when obliged to compare his temper with her own .
+-- She did more ; artless prayers rose to Heaven for pardon , when she was conscious of having erred ; and her contrition was so exceedingly painful , that she watched diligently the first movements of anger and impatience , to save herself this cruel remorse .
+Sublime ideas filled her young mind -- always connected with devotional sentiments ; extemporary effusions of gratitude , and rhapsodies of praise would burst often from her , when she listened to the birds , or pursued the deer .
+She would gaze on the moon , and ramble through the gloomy path , observing the various shapes the clouds assumed , and listen to the sea that was not far distant .
+The wandering spirits , which she imagined inhabited every part of nature , were her constant friends and confidants .
+She began to consider the Great First Cause , formed just notions of his attributes , and , in particular , dwelt on his wisdom and goodness .
+Could she have loved her father or mother , had they returned her affection , she would not so soon , perhaps , have sought out a new world .
+Her sensibility prompted her to search for an object to love ; on earth it was not to be found : her mother had often disappointed her , and the apparent partiality she shewed to her brother gave her exquisite pain -- produced a kind of habitual melancholy , led her into a fondness for reading tales of woe , and made her almost realize the fictitious distress .

+Chapter I .
+The Missing Heir .
+" Uncle , you are not looking well to-night . "
+" I 'm not well , Florence .
+I sometimes doubt if I shall ever be any better . "
+" Surely , uncle , you can not mean ---- " " Yes , my child , I have reason to believe that I am nearing the end . "
+" I can not bear to hear you speak so , uncle , " said Florence Linden , in irrepressible agitation .
+" You are not an old man .
+You are but fifty-four . "
+" True , Florence , but it is not years only that make a man old .
+Two great sorrows have embittered my life .
+First , the death of my dearly beloved wife , and next , the loss of my boy , Harvey . "
+" It is long since I have heard you refer to my cousin 's loss .
+I thought you had become reconciled -- no , I do not mean that , -- I thought your regret might be less poignant . "
+" I have not permitted myself to speak of it , but I have never ceased to think of it day and night . "
+John Linden paused sadly , then resumed : " If he had died , I might , as you say , have become reconciled ; but he was abducted at the age of four by a revengeful servant whom I had discharged from my employment .
+Heaven knows whether he is living or dead , but it is impressed upon my mind that he still lives , it may be in misery , it may be as a criminal , while I , his unhappy father , live on in luxury which I can not enjoy , with no one to care for me ---- " Florence Linden sank impulsively on her knees beside her uncle 's chair .
+" Do n't say that , uncle , " she pleaded .
+" You know that I love you , Uncle John . "
+" And I , too , uncle . "
+There was a shade of jealousy in the voice of Curtis Waring as he entered the library through the open door , and approaching his uncle , pressed his hand .
+He was a tall , dark-complexioned man , of perhaps thirty-five , with shifty , black eyes and thin lips , shaded by a dark mustache .
+It was not a face to trust .
+Even when he smiled the expression of his face did not soften .
+Yet he could moderate his voice so as to express tenderness and sympathy .
+He was the son of an elder sister of Mr. Linden , while Florence was the daughter of a younger brother .
+Both were orphans , and both formed a part of Mr. Linden 's household , and owed everything to his bounty .
+Curtis was supposed to be in some business downtown ; but he received a liberal allowance from his uncle , and often drew upon him for outside assistance .
+As he stood with his uncle 's hand in his , he was necessarily brought near Florence , who instinctively drew a little away , with a slight shudder indicating repugnance .
+Slight as it was , Curtis detected it , and his face darkened .
+John Linden looked from one to the other .
+" Yes , " he said , " I must not forget that I have a nephew and a niece .
+You are both dear to me , but no one can take the place of the boy I have lost . "
+" But it is so long ago , uncle , " said Curtis .
+" It must be fourteen years . "
+" It is fourteen years . "
+" And the boy is long since dead ! "
+" No , no ! " said John Linden , vehemently .
+" I do not , I will not , believe it .
+He still lives , and I live only in the hope of one day clasping him in my arms . "
+" That is very improbable , uncle , " said Curtis , in a tone of annoyance .
+" There is n't one chance in a hundred that my cousin still lives .
+The grave has closed over him long since .
+The sooner you make up your mind to accept the inevitable the better . "
+The drawn features of the old man showed that the words had a depressing effect upon his mind , but Florence interrupted her cousin with an indignant protest .
+" How can you speak so , Curtis ? " she exclaimed .
+" Leave Uncle John the hope that he has so long cherished .
+I have a presentiment that Harvey still lives . "
+John Linden 's face brightened up " You , too , believe it possible , Florence ? " he said , eagerly .
+" Yes , uncle .
+I not only believe it possible , but probable .
+How old would Harvey be if he still lived ? "
+" Eighteen -- nearly a year older than yourself . "
+" How strange !
+I always think of him as a little boy . "
+" And I , too , Florence .
+He rises before me in his little velvet suit , as he was when I last saw him , with his sweet , boyish face , in which his mother 's looks were reflected . "
+" Yet , if still living , " interrupted Curtis , harshly , " he is a rough street boy , perchance serving his time at Blackwell 's Island , and , a hardened young ruffian , whom it would be bitter mortification to recognize as your son . "
+" That 's the sorrowful part of it , " said his uncle , in a voice of anguish .
+" That is what I most dread . "
+" Then , since even if he were living you would not care to recognize him , why not cease to think of him , or else regard him as dead ? "
+" Curtis Waring , have you no heart ? " demanded Florence , indignantly .
+" Indeed , Florence , you ought to know , " said Curtis , sinking his voice into softly modulated accents .
+" I know nothing of it , " said Florence , coldly , rising from her recumbent position , and drawing aloof from Curtis .
+" You know that the dearest wish of my heart is to find favor in your eyes .
+Uncle , you know my wish , and approve of it , do you not ? "
+" Yes , Curtis ; you and Florence are equally dear to me , and it is my hope that you may be united .
+In that case , there will be no division of my fortune .
+It will be left to you jointly . "
+" Believe me , sir , " said Curtis , with faltering voice , feigning an emotion which he did not feel , " believe me , that I fully appreciate your goodness .
+I am sure Florence joins with me ---- " " Florence can speak for herself , " said his cousin , coldly .
+" My uncle needs no assurance from me .
+He is always kind , and I am always grateful . "
+John Linden seemed absorbed in thought .
+" I do not doubt your affection , " he said ; " and I have shown it by making you my joint heirs in the event of your marriage ; but it is only fair to say that my property goes to my boy , if he still lives . "
+" But , sir , " protested Curtis , " is not that likely to create unnecessary trouble ?
+It can never be known , and meanwhile ---- " " You and Florence will hold the property in trust . "
+" Have you so specified in your will ? " asked Curtis .
+" I have made two wills .
+Both are in yonder secretary .
+By the first the property is bequeathed to you and Florence .
+By the second and later , it goes to my lost boy in the event of his recovery .
+Of course , you and Florence are not forgotten , but the bulk of the property goes to Harvey . "
+" I sincerely wish the boy might be restored to you , " said Curtis ; but his tone belied his words .
+" Believe me , the loss of the property would affect me little , if you could be made happy by realizing your warmest desire ; but , uncle , I think it only the part of a friend to point out to you , as I have already done , the baselessness of any such expectation . "
+" It may be as you say , Curtis , " said his uncle , with a sigh .
+" If I were thoroughly convinced of it , I would destroy the later will , and leave my property absolutely to you and Florence . "
+" No , uncle , " said Florence , impulsively , " make no change ; let the will stand . "
+Curtis , screened from his uncle 's view , darted a glance of bitter indignation at Florence .
+" Is the girl mad ? " he muttered to himself .
+" Must she forever balk me ? "
+" Let it be so for the present , then , " said Mr. Linden , wearily .
+" Curtis , will you ring the bell ?
+I am tired , and shall retire to my couch early . "
+" Let me help you , Uncle John , " said Florence , eagerly .
+" It is too much for your strength , my child .
+I am growing more and more helpless . "
+" I , too , can help , " said Curtis .
+John Linden , supported on either side by his nephew and niece , left the room , and was assisted to his chamber .
+Curtis and Florence returned to the library .
+" Florence , " said her cousin , " my uncle 's intentions , as expressed to-night , make it desirable that there should be an understanding between us .
+Take a seat beside me " -- leading her to a sofa -- " and let us talk this matter over . "
+With a gesture of repulsion Florence declined the proffered seat , and remained standing .
+" As you please , " she answered , coldly .
+" Will you be seated ? "
+" No ; our interview will be brief . "
+" Then I will come to the point .
+Uncle John wishes to see us united . "
+" It can never be ! " said Florence , decidedly .
+Curtis bit his lip in mortification , for her tone was cold and scornful .
+Mingled with this mortification was genuine regret , for , so far as he was capable of loving any one , he loved his fair young cousin .
+" You profess to love Uncle John , and yet you would disappoint his cherished hope ! " he returned .
+" Is it his cherished hope ? "
+" There is no doubt about it .
+He has spoken to me more than once on the subject .
+Feeling that his end is near , he wishes to leave you in charge of a protector . "

+_ Chapter I _ Miss Marjoribanks lost her mother when she was only fifteen , and when , to add to the misfortune , she was absent at school , and could not have it in her power to soothe her dear mamma 's last moments , as she herself said .
+Words are sometimes very poor exponents of such an event : but it happens now and then , on the other hand , that a plain intimation expresses too much , and suggests emotion and suffering which , in reality , have but little , if any , existence .
+Mrs Marjoribanks , poor lady , had been an invalid for many years ; she had grown a little peevish in her loneliness , not feeling herself of much account in this world .
+There are some rare natures that are content to acquiesce in the general neglect , and forget themselves when they find themselves forgotten ; but it is unfortunately much more usual to take the plan adopted by Mrs Marjoribanks , who devoted all her powers , during the last ten years of her life , to the solacement and care of that poor self which other people neglected .
+The consequence was , that when she disappeared from her sofa -- except for the mere physical fact that she was no longer there -- no one , except her maid , whose occupation was gone , could have found out much difference .
+Her husband , it is true , who had , somewhere , hidden deep in some secret corner of his physical organisation , the remains of a heart , experienced a certain sentiment of sadness when he re-entered the house from which she had gone away for ever .
+But Dr Marjoribanks was too busy a man to waste his feelings on a mere sentiment .
+His daughter , however , was only fifteen , and had floods of tears at her command , as was natural at that age .
+All the way home she revolved the situation in her mind , which was considerably enlightened by novels and popular philosophy -- for the lady at the head of Miss Marjoribanks school was a devoted admirer of _ Friends in Council _ , and was fond of bestowing that work as a prize , with pencil-marks on the margin -- so that Lucilla 's mind had been cultivated , and was brimful of the best of sentiments .
+She made up her mind on her journey to a great many virtuous resolutions ; for , in such a case as hers , it was evidently the duty of an only child to devote herself to her father 's comfort , and become the sunshine of his life , as so many young persons of her age have been known to become in literature .
+Miss Marjoribanks had a lively mind , and was capable of grasping all the circumstances of the situation at a glance .
+Thus , between the outbreaks of her tears for her mother , it became apparent to her that she must sacrifice her own feelings , and make a cheerful home for papa , and that a great many changes would be necessary in the household -- changes which went so far as even to extend to the furniture .
+Miss Marjoribanks sketched to herself , as she lay back in the corner of the railway carriage , with her veil down , how she would wind herself up to the duty of presiding at her papa 's dinner-parties , and charming everybody by her good humour , and brightness , and devotion to his comfort ; and how , when it was all over , she would withdraw and cry her eyes out in her own room , and be found in the morning languid and worn-out , but always heroical , ready to go downstairs and assist at dear papa 's breakfast , and keep up her smiles for him till he had gone out to his patients .
+Altogether the picture was a very pretty one ; and , considering that a great many young ladies in deep mourning put force upon their feelings in novels , and maintain a smile for the benefit of the unobservant male creatures of whom they have the charge , the idea was not at all extravagant , considering that Miss Marjoribanks was but fifteen .
+She was not , however , exactly the kind of figure for this _ mise en scène _ .
+When her schoolfellows talked of her to their friends -- for Lucilla was already an important personage at Mount Pleasant -- the most common description they gave her was , that she was " a large girl " ; and there was great truth in the adjective .
+She was not to be described as a tall girl -- which conveys an altogether different idea -- but she was large in all particulars , full and well-developed , with somewhat large features , not at all pretty as yet , though it was known in Mount Pleasant that somebody had said that such a face might ripen into beauty , and become " grandiose , " for anything anybody could tell .
+Miss Marjoribanks was not vain ; but the word had taken possession of her imagination , as was natural , and solaced her much when she made the painful discovery that her gloves were half a number larger , and her shoes a hair-breadth broader , than those of any of her companions ; but the hands and feet were both perfectly well shaped ; and being at the same time well clothed and plump , were much more presentable and pleasant to look upon than the lean rudimentary schoolgirl hands with which they were surrounded .
+To add to these excellences , Lucilla had a mass of hair which , if it could but have been cleared a little in its tint , would have been golden , though at present it was nothing more than tawny , and curly to exasperation .
+She wore it in large thick curls , which did not , however , float or wave , or do any of the graceful things which curls ought to do ; for it had this aggravating quality , that it would not grow long , but would grow ridiculously , unmanageably thick , to the admiration of her companions , but to her own despair , for there was no knowing what to do with those short but ponderous locks .
+These were the external characteristics of the girl who was going home to be a comfort to her widowed father , and meant to sacrifice herself to his happiness .
+In the course of her rapid journey she had already settled upon everything that had to be done ; or rather , to speak truly , had rehearsed everything , according to the habit already acquired by a quick mind , a good deal occupied with itself .
+First , she meant to fall into her father 's arms -- forgetting , with that singular facility for overlooking the peculiarities of others which belongs to such a character , that Dr Marjoribanks was very little given to embracing , and that a hasty kiss on her forehead was the warmest caress he had ever given his daughter -- and then to rush up to the chamber of death and weep over dear mamma .
+" And to think I was not there to soothe her last moments ! "
+Lucilla said to herself , with a sob , and with feelings sufficiently real in their way .
+After this , the devoted daughter made up her mind to come downstairs again , pale as death , but self-controlled , and devote herself to papa .
+Perhaps , if great emotion should make him tearless , as such cases had been known , Miss Marjoribanks would steal into his arms unawares , and so surprise him into weeping .
+All this went briskly through her mind , undeterred by the reflection that tears were as much out of the Doctor 's way as embraces ; and in this mood she sped swiftly along in the inspiration of her first sorrow , as she imagined , but in reality to suffer her first disappointment , which was of a less soothing character than that mild and manageable grief .
+When Miss Marjoribanks reached home her mother had been dead for twenty-four hours ; and her father was not at the door to receive her as she had expected , but by the bedside of a patient in extremity , who could not consent to go out of the world without the Doctor .
+This was a sad reversal of her intentions , but Lucilla was not the woman to be disconcerted .
+She carried out the second part of her programme without either interference or sympathy , except from Mrs Marjoribanks 's maid , who had some hopes from the moment of her arrival .
+" I ca n't abear to think as I 'm to be parted from you all , miss , " sobbed the faithful attendant .
+" I 've lost the best missus as ever was , and I should n't mind going after her .
+Whenever any one gets a good friend in this world , they 're the first to be took away , " said the weeping handmaiden , who naturally saw her own loss in the most vivid light .
+" Ah , Ellis , " cried Miss Marjoribanks , reposing her sorrow in the arms of this anxious attendant , " we must try to be a comfort to poor papa ! "
+With this end Lucilla made herself very troublesome to the sober-minded Doctor during those few dim days before the faint and daily lessening shadow of poor Mrs Marjoribanks was removed altogether from the house .
+When that sad ceremony had taken place , and the Doctor returned , serious enough , Heaven knows , to the great house , where the faded helpless woman , who had notwithstanding been his love and his bride in other days , lay no longer on the familiar sofa , the crisis arrived which Miss Marjoribanks had rehearsed so often , but after quite a different fashion .
+The widower was tearless , indeed , but not from excess of emotion .
+On the contrary , a painful heaviness possessed him when he became aware how little real sorrow was in his mind , and how small an actual loss was this loss of his wife , which bulked before the world as an event of just as much magnitude as the loss , for example , which poor Mr Lake , the drawing-master , was at the same moment suffering .
+It was even sad , in another point of view , to think of a human creature passing out of the world , and leaving so little trace that she had ever been there .
+As for the pretty creature whom Dr Marjoribanks had married , she had vanished into thin air years and years ago .
+These thoughts were heavy enough -- perhaps even more overwhelming than that grief which develops love to its highest point of intensity .
+But such were not precisely the kind of reflections which could be solaced by paternal _ attendrissement _ over a weeping and devoted daughter .
+It was May , and the weather was warm for the season ; but Lucilla had caused the fire to be lighted in the large gloomy library where Dr Marjoribanks always sat in the evenings , with the idea that it would be " a comfort " to him ; and , for the same reason , she had ordered tea to be served there , instead of the dinner , for which her father , as she imagined , could have little appetite .
+When the Doctor went in to his favourite seclusion , tired and heated and sad -- for even on the day of his wife 's funeral the favourite doctor of Carlingford had patients to think of -- the very heaviness of his thoughts gave warmth to his indignation .
+He had longed for the quiet and the coolness and the solitude of his library , apart from everybody ; and when he found it radiant with firelight , tea set on the table , and Lucilla crying by the fire , in her new crape , the effect upon a temper by no means perfect may be imagined .
+The unfortunate man threw both the windows wide open and rang the bell violently , and gave instant orders for the removal of the unnecessary fire and the tea-service .
+" Let me know when dinner is ready , " he said , in a voice like thunder ; " and if Miss Marjoribanks wants a fire , let it be lighted in the drawing-room . "
+Lucilla was so much taken by surprise by this sudden overthrow of her programme , that she submitted , as a girl of much less spirit might have done , and suffered herself and her fire and her tea-things to be dismissed upstairs , where she wept still more at sight of dear mamma 's sofa , and where Ellis came to mingle her tears with those of her young mistress , and to beg dear Miss Lucilla , for the sake of her precious ' elth and her dear papa , to be persuaded to take some tea .
+On the whole , master stood lessened in the eyes of all the household by his ability to eat his dinner , and his resentment at having his habitudes disturbed .
+" Them men would eat and drink if we was all in our graves , " said the indignant cook , who indeed had a real grievance ; and the outraged sentiment of the kitchen was avenged by a bad and hasty dinner , which the Doctor , though generally " very particular , " swallowed without remark .
+About an hour afterwards he went upstairs to the drawing-room , where Miss Marjoribanks was waiting for him , much less at ease than she had expected to be .
+Though he gave a little sigh at the sight of his wife 's sofa , he did not hesitate to sit down upon it , and even to draw it a little out of its position , which , as Lucilla described afterwards , was like a knife going into her heart .
+Though , indeed , she had herself decided already , in the intervals of her tears , that the drawing-room furniture had got very faded and shabby , and that it would be very expedient to have it renewed for the new reign of youth and energy which was about to commence .
+As for the Doctor , though Miss Marjoribanks thought him insensible , his heart was heavy enough .
+His wife had gone out of the world without leaving the least mark of her existence , except in that large girl , whose spirits and forces were unbounded , but whose discretion at the present moment did not seem much greater than her mother 's .
+Instead of thinking of her as a comfort , the Doctor felt himself called upon to face a new and unexpected embarrassment .
+It would have been a satisfaction to him just then to have been left to himself , and permitted to work on quietly at his profession , and to write his papers for the _ Lancet _ , and to see his friends now and then when he chose ; for Dr Marjoribanks was not a man who had any great need of sympathy by nature , or who was at all addicted to demonstrations of feeling ; consequently , he drew his wife 's sofa a little farther from the fire , and took his seat on it soberly , quite unaware that , by so doing , he was putting a knife into his daughter 's heart .

+LETTER I LADY HOWARD TO THE REV. MR. VILLARS Howard Grove , Kent .
+CAN any thing , my good Sir , be more painful to a friendly mind , than a necessity of communicating disagreeable intelligence ?
+Indeed it is sometimes difficult to determine , whether the relator or the receiver of evil tidings is most to be pitied .
+I have just had a letter from Madame Duval ; she is totally at a loss in what manner to behave ; she seems desirous to repair the wrongs she has done , yet wishes the world to believe her blameless .
+She would fain cast upon another the odium of those misfortunes for which she alone is answerable .
+Her letter is violent , sometimes abusive , and that of you !
+- you , to whom she is under obligations which are greater even than her faults , but to whose advice she wickedly imputes all the sufferings of her much injured daughter , the late Lady Belmont .
+The chief purport of her writing I will acquaint you with ; the letter itself is not worthy your notice .
+She tells me that she has , for many years past , been in continual expectation of making a journey to England , which prevented her writing for information concerning this melancholy subject , by giving her hopes of making personal inquiries ; but family occurrences have still detained her in France , which country she now sees no prospect of quitting .
+She has , therefore , lately used her utmost endeavors to obtain a faithful account of whatever related to her ill-advised daughter ; the result of which giving her some reason to apprehend , that , upon her death-bed , she bequeathed an infant orphan to the world , she most graciously says , that if you , with whom she understands the child is placed , will procure authentic proofs of its relationship to her , you may sent it to Paris , where she will properly provide for it .
+This woman is , undoubtedly , at length , self-convicted of her most unnatural behaviour ; it is evident , from her writing , that she is still as vulgar and illiterate as when her first husband , Mr. Evelyn , had the weakness to marry her ; nor does she at all apologize for addressing herself to me , though I was only once in her company .
+Her letter has excited in my daughter Mirvan , a strong desire to be informed of the motives which induced Madame Duval to abandon the unfortunate Lady Belmont , at a time when a mother 's protection was peculiarly necessary for her peace and her reputation .
+Notwithstanding I was personally acquainted with all the parties concerned in that affair , the subject always appeared of too delicate a nature to be spoken of with the principals ; I can not , therefore , satisfy Mrs. Mirvan otherwise than by applying to you .
+By saying that you may send the child , Madame Duval aims at conferring , where she most owes obligation .
+I pretend not to give you advice ; you , to whose generous protection this helpless orphan is indebted for every thing , are the best and only judge of what she ought to do ; but I am much concerned at the trouble and uneasiness which this unworthy woman may occasion you .
+My daughter and my grandchild join with me in desiring to be most kindly remembered to the amiable girl ; and they bid me remind you , that the annual visit to Howard Grove , which we were formerly promised , has been discontinued for more than four years .
+I am , dear Sir , with great regard , Your most obedient friend and servant , M. HOWARD .
+LETTER II MR. VILLARS TO LADY HOWARD Berry Hill , Dorsetshire .
+YOUR Ladyship did but too well foresee the perplexity and uneasiness of which Madame Duval 's letter has been productive .
+However , I ought rather to be thankful that I have so many years remained unmolested , than repine at my present embarrassment ; since it proves , at least , that this wretched woman is at length awakened to remorse .
+In regard to my answer , I must humbly request your Ladyship to write to this effect : " That I would not , upon any account , intentionally offend Madame Duval ; but that I have weighty , nay unanswerable reasons for detaining her grand-daughter at present in England ; the principal of which is , that it was the earnest desire of one to whose will she owes implicit duty .
+Madame Duval may be assured , that she meets with the utmost attention and tenderness ; that her education , however short of my wishes , almost exceeds my abilities ; and I flatter myself , when the time arrives that she shall pay her duty to her grand-mother , Madame Duval will find no reason to be dissatisfied with what has been done for her . "
+Your Ladyship will not , I am sure , be surprised at this answer .
+Madame Duval is by no means a proper companion or guardian for a young woman : she is at once uneducated and unprincipled ; ungentle in temper , and unamiable in her manners .
+I have long known that she has persuaded herself to harbour an aversion for me-Unhappy woman !
+I can only regard her as an object of pity !
+I dare not hesitate at a request from Mrs. Mirvan ; yet , in complying with it , I shall , for her own sake , be as concise as I possibly can ; since the cruel transactions which preceded the birth of my ward can afford no entertainment to a mind so humane as her 's .
+Your Ladyship may probably have heard , that I had the honour to accompany Mr. Evelyn , the grandfather of my young charge , when upon his travels , in the capacity of a tutor .
+His unhappy marriage , immediately upon his return to England , with Madame Duval , then a waiting-girl at a tavern , contrary to the advice and entreaties of all his friends , among whom I was myself the most urgent , induced him to abandon his native land , and fix his abode in France .
+Thither he was followed by shame and repentance ; feelings which his heart was not framed to support ; for , notwithstanding he had been too weak to resist the allurements of beauty , which nature , though a niggard to her of every other boon , had with a lavish hand bestowed on his wife ; yet he was a young man of excellent character , and , till thus unaccountably infatuated , of unblemished conduct .
+He survived this ill-judged marriage but two years .
+Upon his death-bed , with an unsteady hand , he wrote me the following note : " My friend , forget your resentment , in favour of your humanity ; - a father , trembling for the welfare of his child , bequeaths her to your care .
+O Villars !
+hear !
+pity !
+And relieve me ! "
+Had my circumstances permitted me , I should have answered these words by an immediate journey to Paris ; but I was obliged to act by the agency of a friend , who was upon the spot , and present at the opening of the will .
+Mr. Evelyn left to me a legacy of a thousand pounds , and the sole guardianship of his daughter 's person till her eighteenth year ; conjuring me , in the most affecting terms , to take the charge of her education till she was able to act with propriety for herself ; but , in regard to fortune , he left her wholly dependent on her mother , to whose tenderness he earnestly recommended her .
+Thus , though he would not , to a woman low-bred and illiberal as Mrs. Evelyn , trust the conduct and morals of his daughter , he nevertheless thought proper to secure to her the respect and duty to which , from her own child , were certainly her due ; but unhappily , it never occurred to him that the mother , on her part , could fail in affection or justice .
+Miss Evelyn , Madam , from the second to the eighteenth year of her life , was brought up under my care , and , except when at school under my roof .
+I need not speak to your Ladyship of the virtues of that excellent young creature .
+She loved me as her father ; nor was Mrs. Villars less valued by her ; while to me she became so dear , that her loss was little less afflicting than that which I have since sustained of Mrs. Villars herself .
+At that period of her life we parted ; her mother , then married to Monsieur Duval , sent for her to Paris .
+How often have I since regretted that I did not accompany her thither !
+Protected and supported by me , the misery and disgrace which awaited her might perhaps have been avoided .
+But , to be brief-Madame Duval , at the instigation of her husband , earnestly , or rather tyrannically , endeavoured to effect a union between Miss Evelyn and one of his nephews .
+And , when she found her power inadequate to her attempt , enraged at her non-compliance , she treated her with the grossest unkindness , and threatened her with poverty and ruin .
+Miss Evelyn , to whom wrath and violence had hitherto been strangers , soon grew weary of such usage ; and rashly , and without a witness , consented to a private marriage with Sir John Belmont , a very profligate young man , who had but too successfully found means to insinuate himself into her favour .
+He promised to conduct her to England-he did.-O , Madam , you know the rest !
+- Disappointed of the fortune he expected , by the inexorable rancour of the Duvals , he infamously burnt the certificate of their marriage , and denied that they had ever been united .
+She flew to me for protection .
+With what mixed transports of joy and anguish did I again see her !
+By my advice , she endeavoured to procure proofs of her marriage-but in vain ; her credulity had been no match for his art .
+Every body believed her innocent , from the guiltless tenor of her unspotted youth , and from the known libertinism of her barbarous betrayer .
+Yet her sufferings were too acute for her slender frame ; and the same moment that gave birth to her infant , put an end at once to the sorrows and the life of its mother .
+The rage of Madame Duval at her elopement , abated not while this injured victim of cruelty yet drew breath .
+She probably intended , in time , to have pardoned her ; but time was not allowed .
+When she was informed of her death , I have been told , that the agonies of grief and remorse , with which she was seized , occasioned her a severe fit of illness .
+But , from the time of her recovery to the date of her letter to your Ladyship , I had never heard that she manifested any desire to be made acquainted with the circumstances which attended the death of Lady Belmont , and the birth of her helpless child .

+BOOK I. CONTAINING AS MUCH OF THE BIRTH OF THE FOUNDLING AS IS NECESSARY OR PROPER TO ACQUAINT THE READER WITH IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS HISTORY .
+Chapter i .
+The introduction to the work , or bill of fare to the feast .
+An author ought to consider himself , not as a gentleman who gives a private or eleemosynary treat , but rather as one who keeps a public ordinary , at which all persons are welcome for their money .
+In the former case , it is well known that the entertainer provides what fare he pleases ; and though this should be very indifferent , and utterly disagreeable to the taste of his company , they must not find any fault ; nay , on the contrary , good breeding forces them outwardly to approve and to commend whatever is set before them .
+Now the contrary of this happens to the master of an ordinary .
+Men who pay for what they eat will insist on gratifying their palates , however nice and whimsical these may prove ; and if everything is not agreeable to their taste , will challenge a right to censure , to abuse , and to d -- n their dinner without controul .
+To prevent , therefore , giving offence to their customers by any such disappointment , it hath been usual with the honest and well-meaning host to provide a bill of fare which all persons may peruse at their first entrance into the house ; and having thence acquainted themselves with the entertainment which they may expect , may either stay and regale with what is provided for them , or may depart to some other ordinary better accommodated to their taste .
+As we do not disdain to borrow wit or wisdom from any man who is capable of lending us either , we have condescended to take a hint from these honest victuallers , and shall prefix not only a general bill of fare to our whole entertainment , but shall likewise give the reader particular bills to every course which is to be served up in this and the ensuing volumes .
+The provision , then , which we have here made is no other than _ Human Nature _ .
+Nor do I fear that my sensible reader , though most luxurious in his taste , will start , cavil , or be offended , because I have named but one article .
+The tortoise -- as the alderman of Bristol , well learned in eating , knows by much experience -- besides the delicious calipash and calipee , contains many different kinds of food ; nor can the learned reader be ignorant , that in human nature , though here collected under one general name , is such prodigious variety , that a cook will have sooner gone through all the several species of animal and vegetable food in the world , than an author will be able to exhaust so extensive a subject .
+An objection may perhaps be apprehended from the more delicate , that this dish is too common and vulgar ; for what else is the subject of all the romances , novels , plays , and poems , with which the stalls abound ?
+Many exquisite viands might be rejected by the epicure , if it was a sufficient cause for his contemning of them as common and vulgar , that something was to be found in the most paltry alleys under the same name .
+In reality , true nature is as difficult to be met with in authors , as the Bayonne ham , or Bologna sausage , is to be found in the shops .
+But the whole , to continue the same metaphor , consists in the cookery of the author ; for , as Mr Pope tells us -- “ True wit is nature to advantage drest ; What oft was thought , but ne'er so well exprest . ”
+The same animal which hath the honour to have some part of his flesh eaten at the table of a duke , may perhaps be degraded in another part , and some of his limbs gibbeted , as it were , in the vilest stall in town .
+Where , then , lies the difference between the food of the nobleman and the porter , if both are at dinner on the same ox or calf , but in the seasoning , the dressing , the garnishing , and the setting forth ?
+Hence the one provokes and incites the most languid appetite , and the other turns and palls that which is the sharpest and keenest .
+In like manner , the excellence of the mental entertainment consists less in the subject than in the author 's skill in well dressing it up .
+How pleased , therefore , will the reader be to find that we have , in the following work , adhered closely to one of the highest principles of the best cook which the present age , or perhaps that of Heliogabalus , hath produced .
+This great man , as is well known to all lovers of polite eating , begins at first by setting plain things before his hungry guests , rising afterwards by degrees as their stomachs may be supposed to decrease , to the very quintessence of sauce and spices .
+In like manner , we shall represent human nature at first to the keen appetite of our reader , in that more plain and simple manner in which it is found in the country , and shall hereafter hash and ragoo it with all the high French and Italian seasoning of affectation and vice which courts and cities afford .
+By these means , we doubt not but our reader may be rendered desirous to read on for ever , as the great person just above-mentioned is supposed to have made some persons eat .
+Having premised thus much , we will now detain those who like our bill of fare no longer from their diet , and shall proceed directly to serve up the first course of our history for their entertainment .
+Chapter ii .
+A short description of squire Allworthy , and a fuller account of Miss Bridget Allworthy , his sister .
+In that part of the western division of this kingdom which is commonly called Somersetshire , there lately lived , and perhaps lives still , a gentleman whose name was Allworthy , and who might well be called the favourite of both nature and fortune ; for both of these seem to have contended which should bless and enrich him most .
+In this contention , nature may seem to some to have come off victorious , as she bestowed on him many gifts , while fortune had only one gift in her power ; but in pouring forth this , she was so very profuse , that others perhaps may think this single endowment to have been more than equivalent to all the various blessings which he enjoyed from nature .
+From the former of these , he derived an agreeable person , a sound constitution , a solid understanding , and a benevolent heart ; by the latter , he was decreed to the inheritance of one of the largest estates in the county .
+This gentleman had in his youth married a very worthy and beautiful woman , of whom he had been extremely fond : by her he had three children , all of whom died in their infancy .
+He had likewise had the misfortune of burying this beloved wife herself , about five years before the time in which this history chuses to set out .
+This loss , however great , he bore like a man of sense and constancy , though it must be confest he would often talk a little whimsically on this head ; for he sometimes said he looked on himself as still married , and considered his wife as only gone a little before him , a journey which he should most certainly , sooner or later , take after her ; and that he had not the least doubt of meeting her again in a place where he should never part with her more -- sentiments for which his sense was arraigned by one part of his neighbours , his religion by a second , and his sincerity by a third .
+He now lived , for the most part , retired in the country , with one sister , for whom he had a very tender affection .
+This lady was now somewhat past the age of thirty , an aera at which , in the opinion of the malicious , the title of old maid may with no impropriety be assumed .
+She was of that species of women whom you commend rather for good qualities than beauty , and who are generally called , by their own sex , very good sort of women -- as good a sort of woman , madam , as you would wish to know .
+Indeed , she was so far from regretting want of beauty , that she never mentioned that perfection , if it can be called one , without contempt ; and would often thank God she was not as handsome as Miss Such-a-one , whom perhaps beauty had led into errors which she might have otherwise avoided .
+Miss Bridget Allworthy ( for that was the name of this lady ) very rightly conceived the charms of person in a woman to be no better than snares for herself , as well as for others ; and yet so discreet was she in her conduct , that her prudence was as much on the guard as if she had all the snares to apprehend which were ever laid for her whole sex .
+Indeed , I have observed , though it may seem unaccountable to the reader , that this guard of prudence , like the trained bands , is always readiest to go on duty where there is the least danger .
+It often basely and cowardly deserts those paragons for whom the men are all wishing , sighing , dying , and spreading every net in their power ; and constantly attends at the heels of that higher order of women for whom the other sex have a more distant and awful respect , and whom ( from despair , I suppose , of success ) they never venture to attack .
+Reader , I think proper , before we proceed any farther together , to acquaint thee that I intend to digress , through this whole history , as often as I see occasion , of which I am myself a better judge than any pitiful critic whatever ; and here I must desire all those critics to mind their own business , and not to intermeddle with affairs or works which no ways concern them ; for till they produce the authority by which they are constituted judges , I shall not plead to their jurisdiction .
+Chapter iii .
+An odd accident which befel Mr Allworthy at his return home .
+The decent behaviour of Mrs Deborah Wilkins , with some proper animadversions on bastards .
+I have told my reader , in the preceding chapter , that Mr Allworthy inherited a large fortune ; that he had a good heart , and no family .
+Hence , doubtless , it will be concluded by many that he lived like an honest man , owed no one a shilling , took nothing but what was his own , kept a good house , entertained his neighbours with a hearty welcome at his table , and was charitable to the poor , i.e. to those who had rather beg than work , by giving them the offals from it ; that he died immensely rich and built an hospital .

+Chapter I Major Amberson had “ made a fortune ” in 1873 , when other people were losing fortunes , and the magnificence of the Ambersons began then .
+Magnificence , like the size of a fortune , is always comparative , as even Magnificent Lorenzo may now perceive , if he has happened to haunt New York in 1916 ; and the Ambersons were magnificent in their day and place .
+Their splendour lasted throughout all the years that saw their Midland town spread and darken into a city , but reached its topmost during the period when every prosperous family with children kept a Newfoundland dog .
+In that town , in those days , all the women who wore silk or velvet knew all the other women who wore silk or velvet , and when there was a new purchase of sealskin , sick people were got to windows to see it go by .
+Trotters were out , in the winter afternoons , racing light sleighs on National Avenue and Tennessee Street ; everybody recognized both the trotters and the drivers ; and again knew them as well on summer evenings , when slim buggies whizzed by in renewals of the snow-time rivalry .
+For that matter , everybody knew everybody else 's family horse-and-carriage , could identify such a silhouette half a mile down the street , and thereby was sure who was going to market , or to a reception , or coming home from office or store to noon dinner or evening supper .
+During the earlier years of this period , elegance of personal appearance was believed to rest more upon the texture of garments than upon their shaping .
+A silk dress needed no remodelling when it was a year or so old ; it remained distinguished by merely remaining silk .
+Old men and governors wore broadcloth ; “ full dress ” was broadcloth with “ doeskin ” trousers ; and there were seen men of all ages to whom a hat meant only that rigid , tall silk thing known to impudence as a “ stove-pipe . ”
+In town and country these men would wear no other hat , and , without self-consciousness , they went rowing in such hats .
+Shifting fashions of shape replaced aristocracy of texture : dressmakers , shoemakers , hatmakers , and tailors , increasing in cunning and in power , found means to make new clothes old .
+The long contagion of the “ Derby ” hat arrived : one season the crown of this hat would be a bucket ; the next it would be a spoon .
+Every house still kept its bootjack , but high-topped boots gave way to shoes and “ congress gaiters ” ; and these were played through fashions that shaped them now with toes like box-ends and now with toes like the prows of racing shells .
+Trousers with a crease were considered plebeian ; the crease proved that the garment had lain upon a shelf , and hence was “ ready-made ” ; these betraying trousers were called “ hand-me-downs , ” in allusion to the shelf .
+In the early ' eighties , while bangs and bustles were having their way with women , that variation of dandy known as the “ dude ” was invented : he wore trousers as tight as stockings , dagger-pointed shoes , a spoon “ Derby , ” a single-breasted coat called a “ Chesterfield , ” with short flaring skirts , a torturing cylindrical collar , laundered to a polish and three inches high , while his other neckgear might be a heavy , puffed cravat or a tiny bow fit for a doll 's braids .
+With evening dress he wore a tan overcoat so short that his black coat-tails hung visible , five inches below the over-coat ; but after a season or two he lengthened his overcoat till it touched his heels , and he passed out of his tight trousers into trousers like great bags .
+Then , presently , he was seen no more , though the word that had been coined for him remained in the vocabularies of the impertinent .
+It was a hairier day than this .
+Beards were to the wearers ' fancy , and things as strange as the Kaiserliche boar-tusk moustache were commonplace .
+“ Side-burns ” found nourishment upon childlike profiles ; great Dundreary whiskers blew like tippets over young shoulders ; moustaches were trained as lambrequins over forgotten mouths ; and it was possible for a Senator of the United States to wear a mist of white whisker upon his throat only , not a newspaper in the land finding the ornament distinguished enough to warrant a lampoon .
+Surely no more is needed to prove that so short a time ago we were living in another age !
+At the beginning of the Ambersons ' great period most of the houses of the Midland town were of a pleasant architecture .
+They lacked style , but also lacked pretentiousness , and whatever does not pretend at all has style enough .
+They stood in commodious yards , well shaded by leftover forest trees , elm and walnut and beech , with here and there a line of tall sycamores where the land had been made by filling bayous from the creek .
+The house of a “ prominent resident , ” facing Military Square , or National Avenue , or Tennessee Street , was built of brick upon a stone foundation , or of wood upon a brick foundation .
+Usually it had a “ front porch ” and a “ back porch ” ; often a �� side porch , ” too .
+There was a “ front hall ” ; there was a “ side hall ” ; and sometimes a “ back hall . ”
+From the “ front hall ” opened three rooms , the “ parlour , ” the “ sitting room , ” and the “ library ” ; and the library could show warrant to its title -- for some reason these people bought books .
+Commonly , the family sat more in the library than in the “ sitting room , ” while callers , when they came formally , were kept to the “ parlour , ” a place of formidable polish and discomfort .
+The upholstery of the library furniture was a little shabby ; but the hostile chairs and sofa of the “ parlour ” always looked new .
+For all the wear and tear they got they should have lasted a thousand years .
+Upstairs were the bedrooms ; “ mother-and-father 's room ” the largest ; a smaller room for one or two sons another for one or two daughters ; each of these rooms containing a double bed , a “ washstand , ” a “ bureau , ” a wardrobe , a little table , a rocking-chair , and often a chair or two that had been slightly damaged downstairs , but not enough to justify either the expense of repair or decisive abandonment in the attic .
+And there was always a “ spare-room , ” for visitors ( where the sewing-machine usually was kept ) , and during the ' seventies there developed an appreciation of the necessity for a bathroom .
+Therefore the architects placed bathrooms in the new houses , and the older houses tore out a cupboard or two , set up a boiler beside the kitchen stove , and sought a new godliness , each with its own bathroom .
+The great American plumber joke , that many-branched evergreen , was planted at this time .
+At the rear of the house , upstairs was a bleak little chamber , called “ the girl 's room , ” and in the stable there was another bedroom , adjoining the hayloft , and called “ the hired man 's room . ”
+House and stable cost seven or eight thousand dollars to build , and people with that much money to invest in such comforts were classified as the Rich .
+They paid the inhabitant of “ the girl 's room ” two dollars a week , and , in the latter part of this period , two dollars and a half , and finally three dollars a week .
+She was Irish , ordinarily , or German or it might be Scandinavian , but never native to the land unless she happened to be a person of colour .
+The man or youth who lived in the stable had like wages , and sometimes he , too , was lately a steerage voyager , but much oftener he was coloured .
+After sunrise , on pleasant mornings , the alleys behind the stables were gay ; laughter and shouting went up and down their dusty lengths , with a lively accompaniment of curry-combs knocking against back fences and stable walls , for the darkies loved to curry their horses in the alley .
+Darkies always prefer to gossip in shouts instead of whispers ; and they feel that profanity , unless it be vociferous , is almost worthless .
+Horrible phrases were caught by early rising children and carried to older people for definition , sometimes at inopportune moments ; while less investigative children would often merely repeat the phrases in some subsequent flurry of agitation , and yet bring about consequences so emphatic as to be recalled with ease in middle life .
+They have passed , those darky hired-men of the Midland town ; and the introspective horses they curried and brushed and whacked and amiably cursed -- those good old horses switch their tails at flies no more .
+For all their seeming permanence they might as well have been buffaloes -- or the buffalo laprobes that grew bald in patches and used to slide from the careless drivers ' knees and hang unconcerned , half way to the ground .
+The stables have been transformed into other likenesses , or swept away , like the woodsheds where were kept the stove-wood and kindling that the “ girl ” and the “ hired-man ” always quarrelled over : who should fetch it .
+Horse and stable and woodshed , and the whole tribe of the “ hired-man , ” all are gone .
+They went quickly , yet so silently that we whom they served have not yet really noticed that they are vanished .
+So with other vanishings .
+There were the little bunty street-cars on the long , single track that went its troubled way among the cobblestones .
+At the rear door of the car there was no platform , but a step where passengers clung in wet clumps when the weather was bad and the car crowded .
+The patrons -- if not too absent-minded -- put their fares into a slot ; and no conductor paced the heaving floor , but the driver would rap remindingly with his elbow upon the glass of the door to his little open platform if the nickels and the passengers did not appear to coincide in number .
+A lone mule drew the car , and sometimes drew it off the track , when the passengers would get out and push it on again .
+They really owed it courtesies like this , for the car was genially accommodating : a lady could whistle to it from an upstairs window , and the car would halt at once and wait for her while she shut the window , put on her hat and cloak , went downstairs , found an umbrella , told the “ girl ” what to have for dinner , and came forth from the house .
+The previous passengers made little objection to such gallantry on the part of the car : they were wont to expect as much for themselves on like occasion .
+In good weather the mule pulled the car a mile in a little less than twenty minutes , unless the stops were too long ; but when the trolley-car came , doing its mile in five minutes and better , it would wait for nobody .
+Nor could its passengers have endured such a thing , because the faster they were carried the less time they had to spare !
+In the days before deathly contrivances hustled them through their lives , and when they had no telephones -- another ancient vacancy profoundly responsible for leisure -- they had time for everything : time to think , to talk , time to read , time to wait for a lady !

+BOOK ONE CHAPTER I ANTHONY PATCH In 1913 , when Anthony Patch was twenty-five , two years were already gone since irony , the Holy Ghost of this later day , had , theoretically at least , descended upon him .
+Irony was the final polish of the shoe , the ultimate dab of the clothes-brush , a sort of intellectual " There ! "
+-- yet at the brink of this story he has as yet gone no further than the conscious stage .
+As you first see him he wonders frequently whether he is not without honor and slightly mad , a shameful and obscene thinness glistening on the surface of the world like oil on a clean pond , these occasions being varied , of course , with those in which he thinks himself rather an exceptional young man , thoroughly sophisticated , well adjusted to his environment , and somewhat more significant than any one else he knows .
+This was his healthy state and it made him cheerful , pleasant , and very attractive to intelligent men and to all women .
+In this state he considered that he would one day accomplish some quiet subtle thing that the elect would deem worthy and , passing on , would join the dimmer stars in a nebulous , indeterminate heaven half-way between death and immortality .
+Until the time came for this effort he would be Anthony Patch -- not a portrait of a man but a distinct and dynamic personality , opinionated , contemptuous , functioning from within outward -- a man who was aware that there could be no honor and yet had honor , who knew the sophistry of courage and yet was brave .
+A WORTHY MAN AND HIS GIFTED SON Anthony drew as much consciousness of social security from being the grandson of Adam J. Patch as he would have had from tracing his line over the sea to the crusaders .
+This is inevitable ; Virginians and Bostonians to the contrary notwithstanding , an aristocracy founded sheerly on money postulates wealth in the particular .
+Now Adam J. Patch , more familiarly known as " Cross Patch , " left his father 's farm in Tarrytown early in sixty-one to join a New York cavalry regiment .
+He came home from the war a major , charged into Wall Street , and amid much fuss , fume , applause , and ill will he gathered to himself some seventy-five million dollars .
+This occupied his energies until he was fifty-seven years old .
+It was then that he determined , after a severe attack of sclerosis , to consecrate the remainder of his life to the moral regeneration of the world .
+He became a reformer among reformers .
+Emulating the magnificent efforts of Anthony Comstock , after whom his grandson was named , he levelled a varied assortment of uppercuts and body-blows at liquor , literature , vice , art , patent medicines , and Sunday theatres .
+His mind , under the influence of that insidious mildew which eventually forms on all but the few , gave itself up furiously to every indignation of the age .
+From an armchair in the office of his Tarrytown estate he directed against the enormous hypothetical enemy , unrighteousness , a campaign which went on through fifteen years , during which he displayed himself a rabid monomaniac , an unqualified nuisance , and an intolerable bore .
+The year in which this story opens found him wearying ; his campaign had grown desultory ; 1861 was creeping up slowly on 1895 ; his thoughts ran a great deal on the Civil War , somewhat on his dead wife and son , almost infinitesimally on his grandson Anthony .
+Early in his career Adam Patch had married an anemic lady of thirty , Alicia Withers , who brought him one hundred thousand dollars and an impeccable entré into the banking circles of New York .
+Immediately and rather spunkily she had borne him a son and , as if completely devitalized by the magnificence of this performance , she had thenceforth effaced herself within the shadowy dimensions of the nursery .
+The boy , Adam Ulysses Patch , became an inveterate joiner of clubs , connoisseur of good form , and driver of tandems -- at the astonishing age of twenty-six he began his memoirs under the title " New York Society as I Have Seen It . "
+On the rumor of its conception this work was eagerly bid for among publishers , but as it proved after his death to be immoderately verbose and overpoweringly dull , it never obtained even a private printing .
+This Fifth Avenue Chesterfield married at twenty-two .
+His wife was Henrietta Lebrune , the Boston " Society Contralto , " and the single child of the union was , at the request of his grandfather , christened Anthony Comstock Patch .
+When he went to Harvard , the Comstock dropped out of his name to a nether hell of oblivion and was never heard of thereafter .
+Young Anthony had one picture of his father and mother together -- so often had it faced his eyes in childhood that it had acquired the impersonality of furniture , but every one who came into his bedroom regarded it with interest .
+It showed a dandy of the nineties , spare and handsome , standing beside a tall dark lady with a muff and the suggestion of a bustle .
+Between them was a little boy with long brown curls , dressed in a velvet Lord Fauntleroy suit .
+This was Anthony at five , the year of his mother 's death .
+His memories of the Boston Society Contralto were nebulous and musical .
+She was a lady who sang , sang , sang , in the music room of their house on Washington Square -- sometimes with guests scattered all about her , the men with their arms folded , balanced breathlessly on the edges of sofas , the women with their hands in their laps , occasionally making little whispers to the men and always clapping very briskly and uttering cooing cries after each song -- and often she sang to Anthony alone , in Italian or French or in a strange and terrible dialect which she imagined to be the speech of the Southern negro .
+His recollections of the gallant Ulysses , the first man in America to roll the lapels of his coat , were much more vivid .
+After Henrietta Lebrune Patch had " joined another choir , " as her widower huskily remarked from time to time , father and son lived up at grampa 's in Tarrytown , and Ulysses came daily to Anthony 's nursery and expelled pleasant , thick-smelling words for sometimes as much as an hour .
+He was continually promising Anthony hunting trips and fishing trips and excursions to Atlantic City , " oh , some time soon now " ; but none of them ever materialized .
+One trip they did take ; when Anthony was eleven they went abroad , to England and Switzerland , and there in the best hotel in Lucerne his father died with much sweating and grunting and crying aloud for air .
+In a panic of despair and terror Anthony was brought back to America , wedded to a vague melancholy that was to stay beside him through the rest of his life .
+PAST AND PERSON OF THE HERO At eleven he had a horror of death .
+Within six impressionable years his parents had died and his grandmother had faded off almost imperceptibly , until , for the first time since her marriage , her person held for one day an unquestioned supremacy over her own drawing room .
+So to Anthony life was a struggle against death , that waited at every corner .
+It was as a concession to his hypochondriacal imagination that he formed the habit of reading in bed -- it soothed him .
+He read until he was tired and often fell asleep with the lights still on .
+His favorite diversion until he was fourteen was his stamp collection ; enormous , as nearly exhaustive as a boy 's could be -- his grandfather considered fatuously that it was teaching him geography .
+So Anthony kept up a correspondence with a half dozen " Stamp and Coin " companies and it was rare that the mail failed to bring him new stamp-books or packages of glittering approval sheets -- there was a mysterious fascination in transferring his acquisitions interminably from one book to another .
+His stamps were his greatest happiness and he bestowed impatient frowns on any one who interrupted him at play with them ; they devoured his allowance every month , and he lay awake at night musing untiringly on their variety and many-colored splendor .
+At sixteen he had lived almost entirely within himself , an inarticulate boy , thoroughly un-American , and politely bewildered by his contemporaries .
+The two preceding years had been spent in Europe with a private tutor , who persuaded him that Harvard was the thing ; it would " open doors , " it would be a tremendous tonic , it would give him innumerable self-sacrificing and devoted friends .
+So he went to Harvard -- there was no other logical thing to be done with him .
+Oblivious to the social system , he lived for a while alone and unsought in a high room in Beck Hall -- a slim dark boy of medium height with a shy sensitive mouth .
+His allowance was more than liberal .
+He laid the foundations for a library by purchasing from a wandering bibliophile first editions of Swinburne , Meredith , and Hardy , and a yellowed illegible autograph letter of Keats 's , finding later that he had been amazingly overcharged .
+He became an exquisite dandy , amassed a rather pathetic collection of silk pajamas , brocaded dressing-gowns , and neckties too flamboyant to wear ; in this secret finery he would parade before a mirror in his room or lie stretched in satin along his window-seat looking down on the yard and realizing dimly this clamor , breathless and immediate , in which it seemed he was never to have a part .
+Curiously enough he found in senior year that he had acquired a position in his class .
+He learned that he was looked upon as a rather romantic figure , a scholar , a recluse , a tower of erudition .
+This amused him but secretly pleased him -- he began going out , at first a little and then a great deal .
+He made the Pudding .
+He drank -- quietly and in the proper tradition .
+It was said of him that had he not come to college so young he might have " done extremely well . "
+In 1909 , when he graduated , he was only twenty years old .
+Then abroad again -- to Rome this time , where he dallied with architecture and painting in turn , took up the violin , and wrote some ghastly Italian sonnets , supposedly the ruminations of a thirteenth-century monk on the joys of the contemplative life .
+It became established among his Harvard intimates that he was in Rome , and those of them who were abroad that year looked him up and discovered with him , on many moonlight excursions , much in the city that was older than the Renaissance or indeed than the republic .
+Maury Noble , from Philadelphia , for instance , remained two months , and together they realized the peculiar charm of Latin women and had a delightful sense of being very young and free in a civilization that was very old and free .
+Not a few acquaintances of his grandfather 's called on him , and had he so desired he might have been _ persona grata _ with the diplomatic set -- indeed , he found that his inclinations tended more and more toward conviviality , but that long adolescent aloofness and consequent shyness still dictated to his conduct .

+CHAPTER I In Chancery London .
+Michaelmas term lately over , and the Lord Chancellor sitting in Lincoln 's Inn Hall .
+Implacable November weather .
+As much mud in the streets as if the waters had but newly retired from the face of the earth , and it would not be wonderful to meet a Megalosaurus , forty feet long or so , waddling like an elephantine lizard up Holborn Hill .
+Smoke lowering down from chimney-pots , making a soft black drizzle , with flakes of soot in it as big as full-grown snowflakes -- gone into mourning , one might imagine , for the death of the sun .
+Dogs , undistinguishable in mire .
+Horses , scarcely better ; splashed to their very blinkers .
+Foot passengers , jostling one another 's umbrellas in a general infection of ill temper , and losing their foot-hold at street-corners , where tens of thousands of other foot passengers have been slipping and sliding since the day broke ( if this day ever broke ) , adding new deposits to the crust upon crust of mud , sticking at those points tenaciously to the pavement , and accumulating at compound interest .
+Fog everywhere .
+Fog up the river , where it flows among green aits and meadows ; fog down the river , where it rolls defiled among the tiers of shipping and the waterside pollutions of a great ( and dirty ) city .
+Fog on the Essex marshes , fog on the Kentish heights .
+Fog creeping into the cabooses of collier-brigs ; fog lying out on the yards and hovering in the rigging of great ships ; fog drooping on the gunwales of barges and small boats .
+Fog in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners , wheezing by the firesides of their wards ; fog in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper , down in his close cabin ; fog cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering little ' prentice boy on deck .
+Chance people on the bridges peeping over the parapets into a nether sky of fog , with fog all round them , as if they were up in a balloon and hanging in the misty clouds .
+Gas looming through the fog in divers places in the streets , much as the sun may , from the spongey fields , be seen to loom by husbandman and ploughboy .
+Most of the shops lighted two hours before their time -- as the gas seems to know , for it has a haggard and unwilling look .
+The raw afternoon is rawest , and the dense fog is densest , and the muddy streets are muddiest near that leaden-headed old obstruction , appropriate ornament for the threshold of a leaden-headed old corporation , Temple Bar .
+And hard by Temple Bar , in Lincoln 's Inn Hall , at the very heart of the fog , sits the Lord High Chancellor in his High Court of Chancery .
+Never can there come fog too thick , never can there come mud and mire too deep , to assort with the groping and floundering condition which this High Court of Chancery , most pestilent of hoary sinners , holds this day in the sight of heaven and earth .
+On such an afternoon , if ever , the Lord High Chancellor ought to be sitting here -- as here he is -- with a foggy glory round his head , softly fenced in with crimson cloth and curtains , addressed by a large advocate with great whiskers , a little voice , and an interminable brief , and outwardly directing his contemplation to the lantern in the roof , where he can see nothing but fog .
+On such an afternoon some score of members of the High Court of Chancery bar ought to be -- as here they are -- mistily engaged in one of the ten thousand stages of an endless cause , tripping one another up on slippery precedents , groping knee-deep in technicalities , running their goat-hair and horsehair warded heads against walls of words and making a pretence of equity with serious faces , as players might .
+On such an afternoon the various solicitors in the cause , some two or three of whom have inherited it from their fathers , who made a fortune by it , ought to be -- as are they not ?
+-- ranged in a line , in a long matted well ( but you might look in vain for truth at the bottom of it ) between the registrar 's red table and the silk gowns , with bills , cross-bills , answers , rejoinders , injunctions , affidavits , issues , references to masters , masters ' reports , mountains of costly nonsense , piled before them .
+Well may the court be dim , with wasting candles here and there ; well may the fog hang heavy in it , as if it would never get out ; well may the stained-glass windows lose their colour and admit no light of day into the place ; well may the uninitiated from the streets , who peep in through the glass panes in the door , be deterred from entrance by its owlish aspect and by the drawl , languidly echoing to the roof from the padded dais where the Lord High Chancellor looks into the lantern that has no light in it and where the attendant wigs are all stuck in a fog-bank !
+This is the Court of Chancery , which has its decaying houses and its blighted lands in every shire , which has its worn-out lunatic in every madhouse and its dead in every churchyard , which has its ruined suitor with his slipshod heels and threadbare dress borrowing and begging through the round of every man 's acquaintance , which gives to monied might the means abundantly of wearying out the right , which so exhausts finances , patience , courage , hope , so overthrows the brain and breaks the heart , that there is not an honourable man among its practitioners who would not give -- who does not often give -- the warning , " Suffer any wrong that can be done you rather than come here ! "
+Who happen to be in the Lord Chancellor 's court this murky afternoon besides the Lord Chancellor , the counsel in the cause , two or three counsel who are never in any cause , and the well of solicitors before mentioned ?
+There is the registrar below the judge , in wig and gown ; and there are two or three maces , or petty-bags , or privy purses , or whatever they may be , in legal court suits .
+These are all yawning , for no crumb of amusement ever falls from Jarndyce and Jarndyce ( the cause in hand ) , which was squeezed dry years upon years ago .
+The short-hand writers , the reporters of the court , and the reporters of the newspapers invariably decamp with the rest of the regulars when Jarndyce and Jarndyce comes on .
+Their places are a blank .
+Standing on a seat at the side of the hall , the better to peer into the curtained sanctuary , is a little mad old woman in a squeezed bonnet who is always in court , from its sitting to its rising , and always expecting some incomprehensible judgment to be given in her favour .
+Some say she really is , or was , a party to a suit , but no one knows for certain because no one cares .
+She carries some small litter in a reticule which she calls her documents , principally consisting of paper matches and dry lavender .
+A sallow prisoner has come up , in custody , for the half-dozenth time to make a personal application " to purge himself of his contempt , " which , being a solitary surviving executor who has fallen into a state of conglomeration about accounts of which it is not pretended that he had ever any knowledge , he is not at all likely ever to do .
+In the meantime his prospects in life are ended .
+Another ruined suitor , who periodically appears from Shropshire and breaks out into efforts to address the Chancellor at the close of the day 's business and who can by no means be made to understand that the Chancellor is legally ignorant of his existence after making it desolate for a quarter of a century , plants himself in a good place and keeps an eye on the judge , ready to call out " My Lord ! "
+in a voice of sonorous complaint on the instant of his rising .
+A few lawyers ' clerks and others who know this suitor by sight linger on the chance of his furnishing some fun and enlivening the dismal weather a little .
+Jarndyce and Jarndyce drones on .
+This scarecrow of a suit has , in course of time , become so complicated that no man alive knows what it means .
+The parties to it understand it least , but it has been observed that no two Chancery lawyers can talk about it for five minutes without coming to a total disagreement as to all the premises .
+Innumerable children have been born into the cause ; innumerable young people have married into it ; innumerable old people have died out of it .
+Scores of persons have deliriously found themselves made parties in Jarndyce and Jarndyce without knowing how or why ; whole families have inherited legendary hatreds with the suit .
+The little plaintiff or defendant who was promised a new rocking-horse when Jarndyce and Jarndyce should be settled has grown up , possessed himself of a real horse , and trotted away into the other world .
+Fair wards of court have faded into mothers and grandmothers ; a long procession of Chancellors has come in and gone out ; the legion of bills in the suit have been transformed into mere bills of mortality ; there are not three Jarndyces left upon the earth perhaps since old Tom Jarndyce in despair blew his brains out at a coffee-house in Chancery Lane ; but Jarndyce and Jarndyce still drags its dreary length before the court , perennially hopeless .
+Jarndyce and Jarndyce has passed into a joke .
+That is the only good that has ever come of it .
+It has been death to many , but it is a joke in the profession .
+Every master in Chancery has had a reference out of it .
+Every Chancellor was " in it , " for somebody or other , when he was counsel at the bar .
+Good things have been said about it by blue-nosed , bulbous-shoed old benchers in select port-wine committee after dinner in hall .
+Articled clerks have been in the habit of fleshing their legal wit upon it .
+The last Lord Chancellor handled it neatly , when , correcting Mr. Blowers , the eminent silk gown who said that such a thing might happen when the sky rained potatoes , he observed , " or when we get through Jarndyce and Jarndyce , Mr. Blowers " -- a pleasantry that particularly tickled the maces , bags , and purses .
+How many people out of the suit Jarndyce and Jarndyce has stretched forth its unwholesome hand to spoil and corrupt would be a very wide question .
+From the master upon whose impaling files reams of dusty warrants in Jarndyce and Jarndyce have grimly writhed into many shapes , down to the copying-clerk in the Six Clerks ' Office who has copied his tens of thousands of Chancery folio-pages under that eternal heading , no man 's nature has been made better by it .
+In trickery , evasion , procrastination , spoliation , botheration , under false pretences of all sorts , there are influences that can never come to good .
+The very solicitors ' boys who have kept the wretched suitors at bay , by protesting time out of mind that Mr. Chizzle , Mizzle , or otherwise was particularly engaged and had appointments until dinner , may have got an extra moral twist and shuffle into themselves out of Jarndyce and Jarndyce .
+The receiver in the cause has acquired a goodly sum of money by it but has acquired too a distrust of his own mother and a contempt for his own kind .
+Chizzle , Mizzle , and otherwise have lapsed into a habit of vaguely promising themselves that they will look into that outstanding little matter and see what can be done for Drizzle -- who was not well used -- when Jarndyce and Jarndyce shall be got out of the office .
+Shirking and sharking in all their many varieties have been sown broadcast by the ill-fated cause ; and even those who have contemplated its history from the outermost circle of such evil have been insensibly tempted into a loose way of letting bad things alone to take their own bad course , and a loose belief that if the world go wrong it was in some off-hand manner never meant to go right .

+Chapter 1 Sir Walter Elliot , of Kellynch Hall , in Somersetshire , was a man who , for his own amusement , never took up any book but the Baronetage ; there he found occupation for an idle hour , and consolation in a distressed one ; there his faculties were roused into admiration and respect , by contemplating the limited remnant of the earliest patents ; there any unwelcome sensations , arising from domestic affairs changed naturally into pity and contempt as he turned over the almost endless creations of the last century ; and there , if every other leaf were powerless , he could read his own history with an interest which never failed .
+This was the page at which the favourite volume always opened : " ELLIOT OF KELLYNCH HALL .
+" Walter Elliot , born March 1 , 1760 , married , July 15 , 1784 , Elizabeth , daughter of James Stevenson , Esq. of South Park , in the county of Gloucester , by which lady ( who died 1800 ) he has issue Elizabeth , born June 1 , 1785 ; Anne , born August 9 , 1787 ; a still-born son , November 5 , 1789 ; Mary , born November 20 , 1791 . "
+Precisely such had the paragraph originally stood from the printer 's hands ; but Sir Walter had improved it by adding , for the information of himself and his family , these words , after the date of Mary 's birth -- " Married , December 16 , 1810 , Charles , son and heir of Charles Musgrove , Esq. of Uppercross , in the county of Somerset , " and by inserting most accurately the day of the month on which he had lost his wife .
+Then followed the history and rise of the ancient and respectable family , in the usual terms ; how it had been first settled in Cheshire ; how mentioned in Dugdale , serving the office of high sheriff , representing a borough in three successive parliaments , exertions of loyalty , and dignity of baronet , in the first year of Charles II , with all the Marys and Elizabeths they had married ; forming altogether two handsome duodecimo pages , and concluding with the arms and motto : -- " Principal seat , Kellynch Hall , in the county of Somerset , " and Sir Walter 's handwriting again in this finale : -- " Heir presumptive , William Walter Elliot , Esq. , great grandson of the second Sir Walter . "
+Vanity was the beginning and the end of Sir Walter Elliot 's character ; vanity of person and of situation .
+He had been remarkably handsome in his youth ; and , at fifty-four , was still a very fine man .
+Few women could think more of their personal appearance than he did , nor could the valet of any new made lord be more delighted with the place he held in society .
+He considered the blessing of beauty as inferior only to the blessing of a baronetcy ; and the Sir Walter Elliot , who united these gifts , was the constant object of his warmest respect and devotion .
+His good looks and his rank had one fair claim on his attachment ; since to them he must have owed a wife of very superior character to any thing deserved by his own .
+Lady Elliot had been an excellent woman , sensible and amiable ; whose judgement and conduct , if they might be pardoned the youthful infatuation which made her Lady Elliot , had never required indulgence afterwards .
+-- She had humoured , or softened , or concealed his failings , and promoted his real respectability for seventeen years ; and though not the very happiest being in the world herself , had found enough in her duties , her friends , and her children , to attach her to life , and make it no matter of indifference to her when she was called on to quit them .
+-- Three girls , the two eldest sixteen and fourteen , was an awful legacy for a mother to bequeath , an awful charge rather , to confide to the authority and guidance of a conceited , silly father .
+She had , however , one very intimate friend , a sensible , deserving woman , who had been brought , by strong attachment to herself , to settle close by her , in the village of Kellynch ; and on her kindness and advice , Lady Elliot mainly relied for the best help and maintenance of the good principles and instruction which she had been anxiously giving her daughters .
+This friend , and Sir Walter , did not marry , whatever might have been anticipated on that head by their acquaintance .
+Thirteen years had passed away since Lady Elliot 's death , and they were still near neighbours and intimate friends , and one remained a widower , the other a widow .
+That Lady Russell , of steady age and character , and extremely well provided for , should have no thought of a second marriage , needs no apology to the public , which is rather apt to be unreasonably discontented when a woman does marry again , than when she does not ; but Sir Walter 's continuing in singleness requires explanation .
+Be it known then , that Sir Walter , like a good father , ( having met with one or two private disappointments in very unreasonable applications ) , prided himself on remaining single for his dear daughters ' sake .
+For one daughter , his eldest , he would really have given up any thing , which he had not been very much tempted to do .
+Elizabeth had succeeded , at sixteen , to all that was possible , of her mother 's rights and consequence ; and being very handsome , and very like himself , her influence had always been great , and they had gone on together most happily .
+His two other children were of very inferior value .
+Mary had acquired a little artificial importance , by becoming Mrs Charles Musgrove ; but Anne , with an elegance of mind and sweetness of character , which must have placed her high with any people of real understanding , was nobody with either father or sister ; her word had no weight , her convenience was always to give way -- she was only Anne .
+To Lady Russell , indeed , she was a most dear and highly valued god-daughter , favourite , and friend .
+Lady Russell loved them all ; but it was only in Anne that she could fancy the mother to revive again .
+A few years before , Anne Elliot had been a very pretty girl , but her bloom had vanished early ; and as even in its height , her father had found little to admire in her , ( so totally different were her delicate features and mild dark eyes from his own ) , there could be nothing in them , now that she was faded and thin , to excite his esteem .
+He had never indulged much hope , he had now none , of ever reading her name in any other page of his favourite work .
+All equality of alliance must rest with Elizabeth , for Mary had merely connected herself with an old country family of respectability and large fortune , and had therefore given all the honour and received none : Elizabeth would , one day or other , marry suitably .
+It sometimes happens that a woman is handsomer at twenty-nine than she was ten years before ; and , generally speaking , if there has been neither ill health nor anxiety , it is a time of life at which scarcely any charm is lost .
+It was so with Elizabeth , still the same handsome Miss Elliot that she had begun to be thirteen years ago , and Sir Walter might be excused , therefore , in forgetting her age , or , at least , be deemed only half a fool , for thinking himself and Elizabeth as blooming as ever , amidst the wreck of the good looks of everybody else ; for he could plainly see how old all the rest of his family and acquaintance were growing .
+Anne haggard , Mary coarse , every face in the neighbourhood worsting , and the rapid increase of the crow 's foot about Lady Russell 's temples had long been a distress to him .
+Elizabeth did not quite equal her father in personal contentment .
+Thirteen years had seen her mistress of Kellynch Hall , presiding and directing with a self-possession and decision which could never have given the idea of her being younger than she was .
+For thirteen years had she been doing the honours , and laying down the domestic law at home , and leading the way to the chaise and four , and walking immediately after Lady Russell out of all the drawing-rooms and dining-rooms in the country .
+Thirteen winters ' revolving frosts had seen her opening every ball of credit which a scanty neighbourhood afforded , and thirteen springs shewn their blossoms , as she travelled up to London with her father , for a few weeks ' annual enjoyment of the great world .
+She had the remembrance of all this , she had the consciousness of being nine-and-twenty to give her some regrets and some apprehensions ; she was fully satisfied of being still quite as handsome as ever , but she felt her approach to the years of danger , and would have rejoiced to be certain of being properly solicited by baronet-blood within the next twelvemonth or two .
+Then might she again take up the book of books with as much enjoyment as in her early youth , but now she liked it not .
+Always to be presented with the date of her own birth and see no marriage follow but that of a youngest sister , made the book an evil ; and more than once , when her father had left it open on the table near her , had she closed it , with averted eyes , and pushed it away .
+She had had a disappointment , moreover , which that book , and especially the history of her own family , must ever present the remembrance of .
+The heir presumptive , the very William Walter Elliot , Esq. , whose rights had been so generously supported by her father , had disappointed her .
+She had , while a very young girl , as soon as she had known him to be , in the event of her having no brother , the future baronet , meant to marry him , and her father had always meant that she should .
+He had not been known to them as a boy ; but soon after Lady Elliot 's death , Sir Walter had sought the acquaintance , and though his overtures had not been met with any warmth , he had persevered in seeking it , making allowance for the modest drawing-back of youth ; and , in one of their spring excursions to London , when Elizabeth was in her first bloom , Mr Elliot had been forced into the introduction .
+He was at that time a very young man , just engaged in the study of the law ; and Elizabeth found him extremely agreeable , and every plan in his favour was confirmed .
+He was invited to Kellynch Hall ; he was talked of and expected all the rest of the year ; but he never came .
+The following spring he was seen again in town , found equally agreeable , again encouraged , invited , and expected , and again he did not come ; and the next tidings were that he was married .
+Instead of pushing his fortune in the line marked out for the heir of the house of Elliot , he had purchased independence by uniting himself to a rich woman of inferior birth .

+The " Red Death " had long devastated the country .
+No pestilence had ever been so fatal , or so hideous .
+Blood was its Avatar and its seal -- the redness and the horror of blood .
+There were sharp pains , and sudden dizziness , and then profuse bleeding at the pores , with dissolution .
+The scarlet stains upon the body and especially upon the face of the victim , were the pest ban which shut him out from the aid and from the sympathy of his fellow-men .
+And the whole seizure , progress and termination of the disease , were the incidents of half an hour .
+But the Prince Prospero was happy and dauntless and sagacious .
+When his dominions were half depopulated , he summoned to his presence a thousand hale and light-hearted friends from among the knights and dames of his court , and with these retired to the deep seclusion of one of his castellated abbeys .
+This was an extensive and magnificent structure , the creation of the prince 's own eccentric yet august taste .
+A strong and lofty wall girdled it in .
+This wall had gates of iron .
+The courtiers , having entered , brought furnaces and massy hammers and welded the bolts .
+They resolved to leave means neither of ingress nor egress to the sudden impulses of despair or of frenzy from within .
+The abbey was amply provisioned .
+With such precautions the courtiers might bid defiance to contagion .
+The external world could take care of itself .
+In the meantime it was folly to grieve , or to think .
+The prince had provided all the appliances of pleasure .
+There were buffoons , there were improvisatori , there were ballet-dancers , there were musicians , there was Beauty , there was wine .
+All these and security were within .
+Without was the " Red Death " .
+It was towards the close of the fifth or sixth month of his seclusion , and while the pestilence raged most furiously abroad , that the Prince Prospero entertained his thousand friends at a masked ball of the most unusual magnificence .
+It was a voluptuous scene , that masquerade .
+But first let me tell of the rooms in which it was held .
+These were seven -- an imperial suite .
+In many palaces , however , such suites form a long and straight vista , while the folding doors slide back nearly to the walls on either hand , so that the view of the whole extent is scarcely impeded .
+Here the case was very different , as might have been expected from the duke 's love of the _ bizarre _ .
+The apartments were so irregularly disposed that the vision embraced but little more than one at a time .
+There was a sharp turn at every twenty or thirty yards , and at each turn a novel effect .
+To the right and left , in the middle of each wall , a tall and narrow Gothic window looked out upon a closed corridor which pursued the windings of the suite .
+These windows were of stained glass whose colour varied in accordance with the prevailing hue of the decorations of the chamber into which it opened .
+That at the eastern extremity was hung , for example in blue -- and vividly blue were its windows .
+The second chamber was purple in its ornaments and tapestries , and here the panes were purple .
+The third was green throughout , and so were the casements .
+The fourth was furnished and lighted with orange -- the fifth with white -- the sixth with violet .
+The seventh apartment was closely shrouded in black velvet tapestries that hung all over the ceiling and down the walls , falling in heavy folds upon a carpet of the same material and hue .
+But in this chamber only , the colour of the windows failed to correspond with the decorations .
+The panes here were scarlet -- a deep blood colour .
+Now in no one of the seven apartments was there any lamp or candelabrum , amid the profusion of golden ornaments that lay scattered to and fro or depended from the roof .
+There was no light of any kind emanating from lamp or candle within the suite of chambers .
+But in the corridors that followed the suite , there stood , opposite to each window , a heavy tripod , bearing a brazier of fire , that projected its rays through the tinted glass and so glaringly illumined the room .
+And thus were produced a multitude of gaudy and fantastic appearances .
+But in the western or black chamber the effect of the fire-light that streamed upon the dark hangings through the blood-tinted panes , was ghastly in the extreme , and produced so wild a look upon the countenances of those who entered , that there were few of the company bold enough to set foot within its precincts at all .
+It was in this apartment , also , that there stood against the western wall , a gigantic clock of ebony .
+Its pendulum swung to and fro with a dull , heavy , monotonous clang ; and when the minute-hand made the circuit of the face , and the hour was to be stricken , there came from the brazen lungs of the clock a sound which was clear and loud and deep and exceedingly musical , but of so peculiar a note and emphasis that , at each lapse of an hour , the musicians of the orchestra were constrained to pause , momentarily , in their performance , to harken to the sound ; and thus the waltzers perforce ceased their evolutions ; and there was a brief disconcert of the whole gay company ; and , while the chimes of the clock yet rang , it was observed that the giddiest grew pale , and the more aged and sedate passed their hands over their brows as if in confused revery or meditation .
+But when the echoes had fully ceased , a light laughter at once pervaded the assembly ; the musicians looked at each other and smiled as if at their own nervousness and folly , and made whispering vows , each to the other , that the next chiming of the clock should produce in them no similar emotion ; and then , after the lapse of sixty minutes , ( which embrace three thousand and six hundred seconds of the Time that flies , ) there came yet another chiming of the clock , and then were the same disconcert and tremulousness and meditation as before .
+But , in spite of these things , it was a gay and magnificent revel .
+The tastes of the duke were peculiar .
+He had a fine eye for colours and effects .
+He disregarded the _ decora _ of mere fashion .
+His plans were bold and fiery , and his conceptions glowed with barbaric lustre .
+There are some who would have thought him mad .
+His followers felt that he was not .
+It was necessary to hear and see and touch him to be _ sure _ that he was not .
+He had directed , in great part , the movable embellishments of the seven chambers , upon occasion of this great _ fête _ ; and it was his own guiding taste which had given character to the masqueraders .
+Be sure they were grotesque .
+There were much glare and glitter and piquancy and phantasm -- much of what has been since seen in " Hernani " .
+There were arabesque figures with unsuited limbs and appointments .
+There were delirious fancies such as the madman fashions .
+There were much of the beautiful , much of the wanton , much of the _ bizarre _ , something of the terrible , and not a little of that which might have excited disgust .
+To and fro in the seven chambers there stalked , in fact , a multitude of dreams .
+And these -- the dreams -- writhed in and about taking hue from the rooms , and causing the wild music of the orchestra to seem as the echo of their steps .
+And , anon , there strikes the ebony clock which stands in the hall of the velvet .
+And then , for a moment , all is still , and all is silent save the voice of the clock .
+The dreams are stiff-frozen as they stand .
+But the echoes of the chime die away -- they have endured but an instant -- and a light , half-subdued laughter floats after them as they depart .
+And now again the music swells , and the dreams live , and writhe to and fro more merrily than ever , taking hue from the many tinted windows through which stream the rays from the tripods .
+But to the chamber which lies most westwardly of the seven , there are now none of the maskers who venture ; for the night is waning away ; and there flows a ruddier light through the blood-coloured panes ; and the blackness of the sable drapery appals ; and to him whose foot falls upon the sable carpet , there comes from the near clock of ebony a muffled peal more solemnly emphatic than any which reaches _ their _ ears who indulged in the more remote gaieties of the other apartments .
+But these other apartments were densely crowded , and in them beat feverishly the heart of life .
+And the revel went whirlingly on , until at length there commenced the sounding of midnight upon the clock .
+And then the music ceased , as I have told ; and the evolutions of the waltzers were quieted ; and there was an uneasy cessation of all things as before .
+But now there were twelve strokes to be sounded by the bell of the clock ; and thus it happened , perhaps , that more of thought crept , with more of time , into the meditations of the thoughtful among those who revelled .
+And thus too , it happened , perhaps , that before the last echoes of the last chime had utterly sunk into silence , there were many individuals in the crowd who had found leisure to become aware of the presence of a masked figure which had arrested the attention of no single individual before .
+And the rumour of this new presence having spread itself whisperingly around , there arose at length from the whole company a buzz , or murmur , expressive of disapprobation and surprise -- then , finally , of terror , of horror , and of disgust .
+In an assembly of phantasms such as I have painted , it may well be supposed that no ordinary appearance could have excited such sensation .
+In truth the masquerade licence of the night was nearly unlimited ; but the figure in question had out-Heroded Herod , and gone beyond the bounds of even the prince 's indefinite decorum .
+There are chords in the hearts of the most reckless which can not be touched without emotion .
+Even with the utterly lost , to whom life and death are equally jests , there are matters of which no jest can be made .
+The whole company , indeed , seemed now deeply to feel that in the costume and bearing of the stranger neither wit nor propriety existed .
+The figure was tall and gaunt , and shrouded from head to foot in the habiliments of the grave .
+The mask which concealed the visage was made so nearly to resemble the countenance of a stiffened corpse that the closest scrutiny must have had difficulty in detecting the cheat .
+And yet all this might have been endured , if not approved , by the mad revellers around .
+But the mummer had gone so far as to assume the type of the Red Death .
+His vesture was dabbled in _ blood _ -- and his broad brow , with all the features of the face , was besprinkled with the scarlet horror .

+Phase the First : The Maiden I On an evening in the latter part of May a middle-aged man was walking homeward from Shaston to the village of Marlott , in the adjoining Vale of Blakemore , or Blackmoor .
+The pair of legs that carried him were rickety , and there was a bias in his gait which inclined him somewhat to the left of a straight line .
+He occasionally gave a smart nod , as if in confirmation of some opinion , though he was not thinking of anything in particular .
+An empty egg-basket was slung upon his arm , the nap of his hat was ruffled , a patch being quite worn away at its brim where his thumb came in taking it off .
+Presently he was met by an elderly parson astride on a gray mare , who , as he rode , hummed a wandering tune .
+" Good night t ' ee , " said the man with the basket .
+" Good night , Sir John , " said the parson .
+The pedestrian , after another pace or two , halted , and turned round .
+" Now , sir , begging your pardon ; we met last market-day on this road about this time , and I said ' Good night , ' and you made reply ' _ Good night , Sir John _ , ' as now . "
+" I did , " said the parson .
+" And once before that -- near a month ago . "
+" I may have . "
+" Then what might your meaning be in calling me ' Sir John ' these different times , when I be plain Jack Durbeyfield , the haggler ? "
+The parson rode a step or two nearer .
+" It was only my whim , " he said ; and , after a moment 's hesitation : " It was on account of a discovery I made some little time ago , whilst I was hunting up pedigrees for the new county history .
+I am Parson Tringham , the antiquary , of Stagfoot Lane .
+Do n't you really know , Durbeyfield , that you are the lineal representative of the ancient and knightly family of the d'Urbervilles , who derive their descent from Sir Pagan d'Urberville , that renowned knight who came from Normandy with William the Conqueror , as appears by Battle Abbey Roll ? "
+" Never heard it before , sir ! "
+" Well it 's true .
+Throw up your chin a moment , so that I may catch the profile of your face better .
+Yes , that 's the d'Urberville nose and chin -- a little debased .
+Your ancestor was one of the twelve knights who assisted the Lord of Estremavilla in Normandy in his conquest of Glamorganshire .
+Branches of your family held manors over all this part of England ; their names appear in the Pipe Rolls in the time of King Stephen .
+In the reign of King John one of them was rich enough to give a manor to the Knights Hospitallers ; and in Edward the Second 's time your forefather Brian was summoned to Westminster to attend the great Council there .
+You declined a little in Oliver Cromwell 's time , but to no serious extent , and in Charles the Second 's reign you were made Knights of the Royal Oak for your loyalty .
+Aye , there have been generations of Sir Johns among you , and if knighthood were hereditary , like a baronetcy , as it practically was in old times , when men were knighted from father to son , you would be Sir John now . "
+" Ye do n't say so ! "
+" In short , " concluded the parson , decisively smacking his leg with his switch , " there 's hardly such another family in England . "
+" Daze my eyes , and is n't there ? "
+said Durbeyfield .
+" And here have I been knocking about , year after year , from pillar to post , as if I was no more than the commonest feller in the parish ... And how long hev this news about me been knowed , Pa ' son Tringham ? "
+The clergyman explained that , as far as he was aware , it had quite died out of knowledge , and could hardly be said to be known at all .
+His own investigations had begun on a day in the preceding spring when , having been engaged in tracing the vicissitudes of the d'Urberville family , he had observed Durbeyfield 's name on his waggon , and had thereupon been led to make inquiries about his father and grandfather till he had no doubt on the subject .
+" At first I resolved not to disturb you with such a useless piece of information , " said he .
+" However , our impulses are too strong for our judgement sometimes .
+I thought you might perhaps know something of it all the while . "
+" Well , I have heard once or twice , 't is true , that my family had seen better days afore they came to Blackmoor .
+But I took no notice o ' t , thinking it to mean that we had once kept two horses where we now keep only one .
+I 've got a wold silver spoon , and a wold graven seal at home , too ; but , Lord , what 's a spoon and seal ?
+... And to think that I and these noble d'Urbervilles were one flesh all the time .
+'T was said that my gr ' t-granfer had secrets , and did n't care to talk of where he came from ... And where do we raise our smoke , now , parson , if I may make so bold ; I mean , where do we d'Urbervilles live ? "
+" You do n't live anywhere .
+You are extinct -- as a county family . "
+" That 's bad . "
+" Yes -- what the mendacious family chronicles call extinct in the male line -- that is , gone down -- gone under . "
+" Then where do we lie ? "
+" At Kingsbere-sub-Greenhill : rows and rows of you in your vaults , with your effigies under Purbeck-marble canopies . "
+" And where be our family mansions and estates ? "
+" You have n't any . "
+" Oh ?
+No lands neither ? "
+" None ; though you once had 'em in abundance , as I said , for you family consisted of numerous branches .
+In this county there was a seat of yours at Kingsbere , and another at Sherton , and another in Millpond , and another at Lullstead , and another at Wellbridge . "
+" And shall we ever come into our own again ? "
+" Ah -- that I ca n't tell ! "
+" And what had I better do about it , sir ? "
+asked Durbeyfield , after a pause .
+" Oh -- nothing , nothing ; except chasten yourself with the thought of ' how are the mighty fallen . '
+It is a fact of some interest to the local historian and genealogist , nothing more .
+There are several families among the cottagers of this county of almost equal lustre .
+Good night . "
+" But you 'll turn back and have a quart of beer wi ' me on the strength o ' t , Pa ' son Tringham ?
+There 's a very pretty brew in tap at The Pure Drop -- though , to be sure , not so good as at Rolliver 's . "
+" No , thank you -- not this evening , Durbeyfield .
+You 've had enough already . "
+Concluding thus , the parson rode on his way , with doubts as to his discretion in retailing this curious bit of lore .
+When he was gone , Durbeyfield walked a few steps in a profound reverie , and then sat down upon the grassy bank by the roadside , depositing his basket before him .
+In a few minutes a youth appeared in the distance , walking in the same direction as that which had been pursued by Durbeyfield .
+The latter , on seeing him , held up his hand , and the lad quickened his pace and came near .
+" Boy , take up that basket !
+I want ' ee to go on an errand for me . "
+The lath-like stripling frowned .
+" Who be you , then , John Durbeyfield , to order me about and call me ' boy ' ?
+You know my name as well as I know yours ! "
+" Do you , do you ?
+That 's the secret -- that 's the secret !
+Now obey my orders , and take the message I 'm going to charge ' ee wi ' ... Well , Fred , I do n't mind telling you that the secret is that I 'm one of a noble race -- it has been just found out by me this present afternoon , P.M. " And as he made the announcement , Durbeyfield , declining from his sitting position , luxuriously stretched himself out upon the bank among the daisies .
+The lad stood before Durbeyfield , and contemplated his length from crown to toe .
+" Sir John d'Urberville -- that 's who I am , " continued the prostrate man .
+" That is if knights were baronets -- which they be .
+'T is recorded in history all about me .
+Dost know of such a place , lad , as Kingsbere-sub-Greenhill ? "
+" Ees .
+I 've been there to Greenhill Fair . "
+" Well , under the church of that city there lie -- " " 'T is n't a city , the place I mean ; leastwise ' twaddn ' when I was there -- 't was a little one-eyed , blinking sort o ' place . "
+" Never you mind the place , boy , that 's not the question before us .
+Under the church of that there parish lie my ancestors -- hundreds of 'em -- in coats of mail and jewels , in gr ' t lead coffins weighing tons and tons .
+There 's not a man in the county o ' South-Wessex that 's got grander and nobler skillentons in his family than I. " " Oh ? "
+" Now take up that basket , and goo on to Marlott , and when you 've come to The Pure Drop Inn , tell 'em to send a horse and carriage to me immed ' ately , to carry me hwome .
+And in the bottom o ' the carriage they be to put a noggin o ' rum in a small bottle , and chalk it up to my account .
+And when you 've done that goo on to my house with the basket , and tell my wife to put away that washing , because she need n't finish it , and wait till I come hwome , as I 've news to tell her . "
+As the lad stood in a dubious attitude , Durbeyfield put his hand in his pocket , and produced a shilling , one of the chronically few that he possessed .
+" Here 's for your labour , lad . "
+This made a difference in the young man 's estimate of the position .

+CHAPTER I THERE IS NO ONE LEFT When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen .
+It was true , too .
+She had a little thin face and a little thin body , thin light hair and a sour expression .
+Her hair was yellow , and her face was yellow because she had been born in India and had always been ill in one way or another .
+Her father had held a position under the English Government and had always been busy and ill himself , and her mother had been a great beauty who cared only to go to parties and amuse herself with gay people .
+She had not wanted a little girl at all , and when Mary was born she handed her over to the care of an Ayah , who was made to understand that if she wished to please the Mem Sahib she must keep the child out of sight as much as possible .
+So when she was a sickly , fretful , ugly little baby she was kept out of the way , and when she became a sickly , fretful , toddling thing she was kept out of the way also .
+She never remembered seeing familiarly anything but the dark faces of her Ayah and the other native servants , and as they always obeyed her and gave her her own way in everything , because the Mem Sahib would be angry if she was disturbed by her crying , by the time she was six years old she was as tyrannical and selfish a little pig as ever lived .
+The young English governess who came to teach her to read and write disliked her so much that she gave up her place in three months , and when other governesses came to try to fill it they always went away in a shorter time than the first one .
+So if Mary had not chosen to really want to know how to read books she would never have learned her letters at all .
+One frightfully hot morning , when she was about nine years old , she awakened feeling very cross , and she became crosser still when she saw that the servant who stood by her bedside was not her Ayah .
+" Why did you come ? " she said to the strange woman .
+" I will not let you stay .
+Send my Ayah to me . "
+The woman looked frightened , but she only stammered that the Ayah could not come and when Mary threw herself into a passion and beat and kicked her , she looked only more frightened and repeated that it was not possible for the Ayah to come to Missie Sahib .
+There was something mysterious in the air that morning .
+Nothing was done in its regular order and several of the native servants seemed missing , while those whom Mary saw slunk or hurried about with ashy and scared faces .
+But no one would tell her anything and her Ayah did not come .
+She was actually left alone as the morning went on , and at last she wandered out into the garden and began to play by herself under a tree near the veranda .
+She pretended that she was making a flower-bed , and she stuck big scarlet hibiscus blossoms into little heaps of earth , all the time growing more and more angry and muttering to herself the things she would say and the names she would call Saidie when she returned .
+" Pig !
+Pig !
+Daughter of Pigs ! " she said , because to call a native a pig is the worst insult of all .
+She was grinding her teeth and saying this over and over again when she heard her mother come out on the veranda with some one .
+She was with a fair young man and they stood talking together in low strange voices .
+Mary knew the fair young man who looked like a boy .
+She had heard that he was a very young officer who had just come from England .
+The child stared at him , but she stared most at her mother .
+She always did this when she had a chance to see her , because the Mem Sahib -- Mary used to call her that oftener than anything else -- was such a tall , slim , pretty person and wore such lovely clothes .
+Her hair was like curly silk and she had a delicate little nose which seemed to be disdaining things , and she had large laughing eyes .
+All her clothes were thin and floating , and Mary said they were " full of lace . "
+They looked fuller of lace than ever this morning , but her eyes were not laughing at all .
+They were large and scared and lifted imploringly to the fair boy officer 's face .
+" Is it so very bad ?
+Oh , is it ? "
+Mary heard her say .
+" Awfully , " the young man answered in a trembling voice .
+" Awfully , Mrs. Lennox .
+You ought to have gone to the hills two weeks ago . "
+The Mem Sahib wrung her hands .
+" Oh , I know I ought ! " she cried .
+" I only stayed to go to that silly dinner party .
+What a fool I was ! "
+At that very moment such a loud sound of wailing broke out from the servants ' quarters that she clutched the young man 's arm , and Mary stood shivering from head to foot .
+The wailing grew wilder and wilder .
+" What is it ?
+What is it ? "
+Mrs. Lennox gasped .
+" Some one has died , " answered the boy officer .
+" You did not say it had broken out among your servants . "
+" I did not know ! " the Mem Sahib cried .
+" Come with me !
+Come with me ! " and she turned and ran into the house .
+After that , appalling things happened , and the mysteriousness of the morning was explained to Mary .
+The cholera had broken out in its most fatal form and people were dying like flies .
+The Ayah had been taken ill in the night , and it was because she had just died that the servants had wailed in the huts .
+Before the next day three other servants were dead and others had run away in terror .
+There was panic on every side , and dying people in all the bungalows .
+During the confusion and bewilderment of the second day Mary hid herself in the nursery and was forgotten by everyone .
+Nobody thought of her , nobody wanted her , and strange things happened of which she knew nothing .
+Mary alternately cried and slept through the hours .
+She only knew that people were ill and that she heard mysterious and frightening sounds .
+Once she crept into the dining-room and found it empty , though a partly finished meal was on the table and chairs and plates looked as if they had been hastily pushed back when the diners rose suddenly for some reason .
+The child ate some fruit and biscuits , and being thirsty she drank a glass of wine which stood nearly filled .
+It was sweet , and she did not know how strong it was .
+Very soon it made her intensely drowsy , and she went back to her nursery and shut herself in again , frightened by cries she heard in the huts and by the hurrying sound of feet .
+The wine made her so sleepy that she could scarcely keep her eyes open and she lay down on her bed and knew nothing more for a long time .
+Many things happened during the hours in which she slept so heavily , but she was not disturbed by the wails and the sound of things being carried in and out of the bungalow .
+When she awakened she lay and stared at the wall .
+The house was perfectly still .
+She had never known it to be so silent before .
+She heard neither voices nor footsteps , and wondered if everybody had got well of the cholera and all the trouble was over .
+She wondered also who would take care of her now her Ayah was dead .
+There would be a new Ayah , and perhaps she would know some new stories .
+Mary had been rather tired of the old ones .
+She did not cry because her nurse had died .
+She was not an affectionate child and had never cared much for any one .
+The noise and hurrying about and wailing over the cholera had frightened her , and she had been angry because no one seemed to remember that she was alive .
+Everyone was too panic-stricken to think of a little girl no one was fond of .
+When people had the cholera it seemed that they remembered nothing but themselves .
+But if everyone had got well again , surely some one would remember and come to look for her .
+But no one came , and as she lay waiting the house seemed to grow more and more silent .
+She heard something rustling on the matting and when she looked down she saw a little snake gliding along and watching her with eyes like jewels .
+She was not frightened , because he was a harmless little thing who would not hurt her and he seemed in a hurry to get out of the room .
+He slipped under the door as she watched him .
+" How queer and quiet it is , " she said .
+" It sounds as if there were no one in the bungalow but me and the snake . "
+Almost the next minute she heard footsteps in the compound , and then on the veranda .
+They were men 's footsteps , and the men entered the bungalow and talked in low voices .
+No one went to meet or speak to them and they seemed to open doors and look into rooms .
+" What desolation ! " she heard one voice say .
+" That pretty , pretty woman !
+I suppose the child , too .
+I heard there was a child , though no one ever saw her . "
+Mary was standing in the middle of the nursery when they opened the door a few minutes later .
+She looked an ugly , cross little thing and was frowning because she was beginning to be hungry and feel disgracefully neglected .
+The first man who came in was a large officer she had once seen talking to her father .
+He looked tired and troubled , but when he saw her he was so startled that he almost jumped back .
+" Barney ! " he cried out .
+" There is a child here !
+A child alone !
+In a place like this !
+Mercy on us , who is she ! "
+" I am Mary Lennox , " the little girl said , drawing herself up stiffly .
+She thought the man was very rude to call her father 's bungalow " A place like this ! "
+" I fell asleep when everyone had the cholera and I have only just wakened up .
+Why does nobody come ? "
+" It is the child no one ever saw ! " exclaimed the man , turning to his companions .
+" She has actually been forgotten ! "

+PROLOGUE IT was 2 p.m. on the afternoon of May 7 , 1915 .
+The _ Lusitania _ had been struck by two torpedoes in succession and was sinking rapidly , while the boats were being launched with all possible speed .
+The women and children were being lined up awaiting their turn .
+Some still clung desperately to husbands and fathers ; others clutched their children closely to their breasts .
+One girl stood alone , slightly apart from the rest .
+She was quite young , not more than eighteen .
+She did not seem afraid , and her grave , steadfast eyes looked straight ahead .
+“ I beg your pardon . ”
+A man ’s voice beside her made her start and turn .
+She had noticed the speaker more than once amongst the first-class passengers .
+There had been a hint of mystery about him which had appealed to her imagination .
+He spoke to no one .
+If anyone spoke to him he was quick to rebuff the overture .
+Also he had a nervous way of looking over his shoulder with a swift , suspicious glance .
+She noticed now that he was greatly agitated .
+There were beads of perspiration on his brow .
+He was evidently in a state of overmastering fear .
+And yet he did not strike her as the kind of man who would be afraid to meet death !
+“ Yes ? ”
+Her grave eyes met his inquiringly .
+He stood looking at her with a kind of desperate irresolution .
+“ It must be ! ” he muttered to himself .
+“ Yes -- it is the only way . ”
+Then aloud he said abruptly : “ You are an American ? ”
+“ Yes . ”
+“ A patriotic one ? ”
+The girl flushed .
+“ I guess you ’ve no right to ask such a thing !
+Of course I am ! ”
+“ Do n’t be offended .
+You would n’t be if you knew how much there was at stake .
+But I ’ve got to trust some one -- and it must be a woman . ”
+“ Why ? ”
+“ Because of ‘ women and children first .
+’” He looked round and lowered his voice .
+“ I ’m carrying papers -- vitally important papers .
+They may make all the difference to the Allies in the war .
+You understand ?
+These papers have _ got _ to be saved !
+They ’ve more chance with you than with me .
+Will you take them ? ”
+The girl held out her hand .
+“ Wait -- I must warn you .
+There may be a risk -- if I ’ve been followed .
+I do n’t think I have , but one never knows .
+If so , there will be danger .
+Have you the nerve to go through with it ? ”
+The girl smiled .
+“ I ’ll go through with it all right .
+And I ’m real proud to be chosen !
+What am I to do with them afterwards ? ”
+“ Watch the newspapers !
+I ’ll advertise in the personal column of the _ Times _ , beginning ‘ Shipmate . ’
+At the end of three days if there ’s nothing -- well , you ’ll know I ’m down and out .
+Then take the packet to the American Embassy , and deliver it into the Ambassador ’s own hands .
+Is that clear ? ”
+“ Quite clear . ”
+“ Then be ready -- I ’m going to say good-bye . ”
+He took her hand in his .
+“ Good-bye .
+Good luck to you , ” he said in a louder tone .
+Her hand closed on the oilskin packet that had lain in his palm .
+The _ Lusitania _ settled with a more decided list to starboard .
+In answer to a quick command , the girl went forward to take her place in the boat .
+CHAPTER I .
+THE YOUNG ADVENTURERS , LTD .
+“ TOMMY , old thing ! ”
+“ Tuppence , old bean ! ”
+The two young people greeted each other affectionately , and momentarily blocked the Dover Street Tube exit in doing so .
+The adjective “ old ” was misleading .
+Their united ages would certainly not have totalled forty-five .
+“ Not seen you for simply centuries , ” continued the young man .
+“ Where are you off to ?
+Come and chew a bun with me .
+We ’re getting a bit unpopular here -- blocking the gangway as it were .
+Let ’s get out of it . ”
+The girl assenting , they started walking down Dover Street towards Piccadilly .
+“ Now then , ” said Tommy , “ where shall we go ? ”
+The very faint anxiety which underlay his tone did not escape the astute ears of Miss Prudence Cowley , known to her intimate friends for some mysterious reason as “ Tuppence . ”
+She pounced at once .
+“ Tommy , you ’re stony ! ”
+“ Not a bit of it , ” declared Tommy unconvincingly .
+“ Rolling in cash . ”
+“ You always were a shocking liar , ” said Tuppence severely , “ though you did once persuade Sister Greenbank that the doctor had ordered you beer as a tonic , but forgotten to write it on the chart .
+Do you remember ? ”
+Tommy chuckled .
+“ I should think I did !
+Was n’t the old cat in a rage when she found out ?
+Not that she was a bad sort really , old Mother Greenbank !
+Good old hospital -- demobbed like everything else , I suppose ? ”
+Tuppence sighed .
+“ Yes .
+You too ? ”
+Tommy nodded .
+“ Two months ago . ”
+“ Gratuity ? ” hinted Tuppence .
+“ Spent . ”
+“ Oh , Tommy ! ”
+“ No , old thing , not in riotous dissipation .
+No such luck !
+The cost of living -- ordinary plain , or garden living nowadays is , I assure you , if you do not know ---- ” “ My dear child , ” interrupted Tuppence , “ there is nothing I do _ not _ know about the cost of living .
+Here we are at Lyons ’ , and we will each of us pay for our own .
+That ’s it ! ”
+And Tuppence led the way upstairs .
+The place was full , and they wandered about looking for a table , catching odds and ends of conversation as they did so .
+“ And -- do you know , she sat down and _ cried _ when I told her she could n’t have the flat after all . ”
+“ It was simply a _ bargain _ , my dear !
+Just like the one Mabel Lewis brought from Paris ---- ” “ Funny scraps one does overhear , ” murmured Tommy .
+“ I passed two Johnnies in the street to-day talking about some one called Jane Finn .
+Did you ever hear such a name ? ”
+But at that moment two elderly ladies rose and collected parcels , and Tuppence deftly ensconced herself in one of the vacant seats .
+Tommy ordered tea and buns .
+Tuppence ordered tea and buttered toast .
+“ And mind the tea comes in separate teapots , ” she added severely .
+Tommy sat down opposite her .
+His bared head revealed a shock of exquisitely slicked-back red hair .
+His face was pleasantly ugly -- nondescript , yet unmistakably the face of a gentleman and a sportsman .
+His brown suit was well cut , but perilously near the end of its tether .
+They were an essentially modern-looking couple as they sat there .
+Tuppence had no claim to beauty , but there was character and charm in the elfin lines of her little face , with its determined chin and large , wide-apart grey eyes that looked mistily out from under straight , black brows .
+She wore a small bright green toque over her black bobbed hair , and her extremely short and rather shabby skirt revealed a pair of uncommonly dainty ankles .
+Her appearance presented a valiant attempt at smartness .
+The tea came at last , and Tuppence , rousing herself from a fit of meditation , poured it out .
+“ Now then , ” said Tommy , taking a large bite of bun , “ let ’s get up-to-date .
+Remember , I have n’t seen you since that time in hospital in 1916 . ”
+“ Very well . ”
+Tuppence helped herself liberally to buttered toast .
+“ Abridged biography of Miss Prudence Cowley , fifth daughter of Archdeacon Cowley of Little Missendell , Suffolk .
+Miss Cowley left the delights ( and drudgeries ) of her home life early in the war and came up to London , where she entered an officers ’ hospital .
+First month : Washed up six hundred and forty-eight plates every day .
+Second month : Promoted to drying aforesaid plates .
+Third month : Promoted to peeling potatoes .
+Fourth month : Promoted to cutting bread and butter .
+Fifth month : Promoted one floor up to duties of wardmaid with mop and pail .
+Sixth month : Promoted to waiting at table .
+Seventh month : Pleasing appearance and nice manners so striking that am promoted to waiting on the Sisters !
+Eighth month : Slight check in career .
+Sister Bond ate Sister Westhaven ’s egg !
+Grand row !
+Wardmaid clearly to blame !
+Inattention in such important matters can not be too highly censured .
+Mop and pail again !
+How are the mighty fallen !
+Ninth month : Promoted to sweeping out wards , where I found a friend of my childhood in Lieutenant Thomas Beresford ( bow , Tommy ! )
+, whom I had not seen for five long years .
+The meeting was affecting !
+Tenth month : Reproved by matron for visiting the pictures in company with one of the patients , namely : the aforementioned Lieutenant Thomas Beresford .
+Eleventh and twelfth months : Parlourmaid duties resumed with entire success .
+At the end of the year left hospital in a blaze of glory .
+After that , the talented Miss Cowley drove successively a trade delivery van , a motor-lorry and a general !
+The last was the pleasantest .
+He was quite a young general ! ”
+“ What blighter was that ? ” inquired Tommy .
+“ Perfectly sickening the way those brass hats drove from the War Office to the _ Savoy _ , and from the _ Savoy _ to the War Office ! ”
+“ I ’ve forgotten his name now , ” confessed Tuppence .
+“ To resume , that was in a way the apex of my career .
+I next entered a Government office .
+We had several very enjoyable tea parties .
+I had intended to become a land girl , a postwoman , and a bus conductress by way of rounding off my career -- but the Armistice intervened !
+I clung to the office with the true limpet touch for many long months , but , alas , I was combed out at last .
+Since then I ’ve been looking for a job .
+Now then -- your turn . ”
+“ There ’s not so much promotion in mine , ” said Tommy regretfully , “ and a great deal less variety .
+I went out to France again , as you know .
+Then they sent me to Mesopotamia , and I got wounded for the second time , and went into hospital out there .
+Then I got stuck in Egypt till the Armistice happened , kicked my heels there some time longer , and , as I told you , finally got demobbed .
+And , for ten long , weary months I ’ve been job hunting !
+There are n’t any jobs !
+And , if there were , they would n’t give ‘ em to me .
+What good am I ?
+What do I know about business ?
+Nothing . ”

+CHAPTER I. Down the Rabbit-Hole Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank , and of having nothing to do : once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading , but it had no pictures or conversations in it , ‘ and what is the use of a book , ’ thought Alice ‘ without pictures or conversations ? ’
+So she was considering in her own mind ( as well as she could , for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid ) , whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies , when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her .
+There was nothing so VERY remarkable in that ; nor did Alice think it so VERY much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself , ‘ Oh dear !
+Oh dear !
+I shall be late ! ’
+( when she thought it over afterwards , it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this , but at the time it all seemed quite natural ) ; but when the Rabbit actually TOOK A WATCH OUT OF ITS WAISTCOAT-POCKET , and looked at it , and then hurried on , Alice started to her feet , for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket , or a watch to take out of it , and burning with curiosity , she ran across the field after it , and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge .
+In another moment down went Alice after it , never once considering how in the world she was to get out again .
+The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way , and then dipped suddenly down , so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well .
+Either the well was very deep , or she fell very slowly , for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next .
+First , she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to , but it was too dark to see anything ; then she looked at the sides of the well , and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves ; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs .
+She took down a jar from one of the shelves as she passed ; it was labelled ‘ ORANGE MARMALADE ’ , but to her great disappointment it was empty : she did not like to drop the jar for fear of killing somebody , so managed to put it into one of the cupboards as she fell past it .
+‘ Well ! ’
+thought Alice to herself , ‘ after such a fall as this , I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs !
+How brave they ’ll all think me at home !
+Why , I would n’t say anything about it , even if I fell off the top of the house ! ’
+( Which was very likely true . )
+Down , down , down .
+Would the fall NEVER come to an end !
+‘ I wonder how many miles I ’ve fallen by this time ? ’
+she said aloud .
+‘ I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth .
+Let me see : that would be four thousand miles down , I think -- ’ ( for , you see , Alice had learnt several things of this sort in her lessons in the schoolroom , and though this was not a VERY good opportunity for showing off her knowledge , as there was no one to listen to her , still it was good practice to say it over ) ‘ -- yes , that ’s about the right distance -- but then I wonder what Latitude or Longitude I ’ve got to ? ’
+( Alice had no idea what Latitude was , or Longitude either , but thought they were nice grand words to say . )
+Presently she began again .
+‘ I wonder if I shall fall right THROUGH the earth !
+How funny it ’ll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downward !
+The Antipathies , I think -- ’ ( she was rather glad there WAS no one listening , this time , as it did n’t sound at all the right word ) ‘ -- but I shall have to ask them what the name of the country is , you know .
+Please , Ma’am , is this New Zealand or Australia ? ’
+( and she tried to curtsey as she spoke -- fancy CURTSEYING as you ’re falling through the air !
+Do you think you could manage it ? )
+‘ And what an ignorant little girl she ’ll think me for asking !
+No , it ’ll never do to ask : perhaps I shall see it written up somewhere . ’
+Down , down , down .
+There was nothing else to do , so Alice soon began talking again .
+‘ Dinah ’ll miss me very much to-night , I should think ! ’
+( Dinah was the cat . )
+‘ I hope they ’ll remember her saucer of milk at tea-time .
+Dinah my dear !
+I wish you were down here with me !
+There are no mice in the air , I ’m afraid , but you might catch a bat , and that ’s very like a mouse , you know .
+But do cats eat bats , I wonder ? ’
+And here Alice began to get rather sleepy , and went on saying to herself , in a dreamy sort of way , ‘ Do cats eat bats ?
+Do cats eat bats ? ’
+and sometimes , ‘ Do bats eat cats ? ’
+for , you see , as she could n’t answer either question , it did n’t much matter which way she put it .
+She felt that she was dozing off , and had just begun to dream that she was walking hand in hand with Dinah , and saying to her very earnestly , ‘ Now , Dinah , tell me the truth : did you ever eat a bat ? ’
+when suddenly , thump !
+thump !
+down she came upon a heap of sticks and dry leaves , and the fall was over .
+Alice was not a bit hurt , and she jumped up on to her feet in a moment : she looked up , but it was all dark overhead ; before her was another long passage , and the White Rabbit was still in sight , hurrying down it .
+There was not a moment to be lost : away went Alice like the wind , and was just in time to hear it say , as it turned a corner , ‘ Oh my ears and whiskers , how late it ’s getting ! ’
+She was close behind it when she turned the corner , but the Rabbit was no longer to be seen : she found herself in a long , low hall , which was lit up by a row of lamps hanging from the roof .
+There were doors all round the hall , but they were all locked ; and when Alice had been all the way down one side and up the other , trying every door , she walked sadly down the middle , wondering how she was ever to get out again .
+Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table , all made of solid glass ; there was nothing on it except a tiny golden key , and Alice ’s first thought was that it might belong to one of the doors of the hall ; but , alas !
+either the locks were too large , or the key was too small , but at any rate it would not open any of them .
+However , on the second time round , she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before , and behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high : she tried the little golden key in the lock , and to her great delight it fitted !
+Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage , not much larger than a rat-hole : she knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw .
+How she longed to get out of that dark hall , and wander about among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains , but she could not even get her head through the doorway ; ‘ and even if my head would go through , ’ thought poor Alice , ‘ it would be of very little use without my shoulders .
+Oh , how I wish I could shut up like a telescope !
+I think I could , if I only knew how to begin . ’
+For , you see , so many out-of-the-way things had happened lately , that Alice had begun to think that very few things indeed were really impossible .
+There seemed to be no use in waiting by the little door , so she went back to the table , half hoping she might find another key on it , or at any rate a book of rules for shutting people up like telescopes : this time she found a little bottle on it , [ ‘ which certainly was not here before , ’ said Alice , ) and round the neck of the bottle was a paper label , with the words ‘ DRINK ME ’ beautifully printed on it in large letters .
+It was all very well to say ‘ Drink me , ’ but the wise little Alice was not going to do THAT in a hurry .
+‘ No , I ’ll look first , ’ she said , ‘ and see whether it ’s marked “ poison ” or not ’ ; for she had read several nice little histories about children who had got burnt , and eaten up by wild beasts and other unpleasant things , all because they WOULD not remember the simple rules their friends had taught them : such as , that a red-hot poker will burn you if you hold it too long ; and that if you cut your finger VERY deeply with a knife , it usually bleeds ; and she had never forgotten that , if you drink much from a bottle marked ‘ poison , ’ it is almost certain to disagree with you , sooner or later .
+However , this bottle was NOT marked ‘ poison , ’ so Alice ventured to taste it , and finding it very nice , ( it had , in fact , a sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart , custard , pine-apple , roast turkey , toffee , and hot buttered toast , ) she very soon finished it off .
+* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ‘ What a curious feeling ! ’
+said Alice ; ‘ I must be shutting up like a telescope . ’
+And so it was indeed : she was now only ten inches high , and her face brightened up at the thought that she was now the right size for going through the little door into that lovely garden .
+First , however , she waited for a few minutes to see if she was going to shrink any further : she felt a little nervous about this ; ‘ for it might end , you know , ’ said Alice to herself , ‘ in my going out altogether , like a candle .
+I wonder what I should be like then ? ’
+And she tried to fancy what the flame of a candle is like after the candle is blown out , for she could not remember ever having seen such a thing .

+CHAPTER I .
+The Coming of a Native Son The Happy Family , waiting for the Sunday supper call , were grouped around the open door of the bunk-house , gossiping idly of things purely local , when the Old Man returned from the Stock Association at Helena ; beside him on the buggy seat sat a stranger .
+The Old Man pulled up at the bunk-house , the stranger sprang out over the wheel with the agility which bespoke youthful muscles , and the Old Man introduced him with a quirk of the lips : “ This is Mr. Mig-u-ell Rapponi , boys -- a peeler straight from the Golden Gate .
+Throw out your war-bag and make yourself to home , Mig-u-ell ; some of the boys 'll show you where to bed down . ”
+The Old Man drove on to the house with his own luggage , and Happy Jack followed to take charge of the team ; but the remainder of the Happy Family unobtrusively took the measure of the foreign element .
+From his black-and-white horsehair hatband , with tassels that swept to the very edge of his gray hatbrim , to the crimson silk neckerchief draped over the pale blue bosom of his shirt ; from the beautifully stamped leather cuffs , down to the exaggerated height of his tan boot-heels , their critical eyes swept in swift , appraising glances ; and unanimous disapproval was the result .
+The Happy Family had themselves an eye to picturesque garb upon occasion , but this passed even Pink 's love of display .
+“ He 's some gaudy to look at , ” Irish murmured under his breath to Cal Emmett .
+“ All he lacks is a spot-light and a brass band , ” Cal returned , in much the same tone with which a woman remarks upon a last season 's hat on the head of a rival .
+Miguel was not embarrassed by the inspection .
+He was tall , straight , and swarthily handsome , and he stood with the complacence of a stage favorite waiting for the applause to cease so that he might speak his first lines ; and , while he waited , he sifted tobacco into a cigarette paper daintily , with his little finger extended .
+There was a ring upon that finger ; a ring with a moonstone setting as large and round as the eye of a startled cat , and the Happy Family caught the pale gleam of it and drew a long breath .
+He lighted a match nonchalantly , by the artfully simple method of pinching the head of it with his fingernails , leaned negligently against the wall of the bunk-house , and regarded the group incuriously while he smoked .
+“ Any pretty girls up this way ? ” he inquired languidly , after a moment , fanning a thin smoke-cloud from before his face while he spoke .
+The Happy Family went prickly hot .
+The girls in that neighborhood were held in esteem , and there was that in his tone which gave offense .
+“ Sure , there 's pretty girls here ! ”
+Big Medicine bellowed unexpectedly , close beside him .
+“ We 're all of us engaged to ` em , by cripes ! ”
+Miguel shot an oblique glance at Big Medicine , examined the end of his cigarette , and gave a lift of shoulder , which might mean anything or nothing , and so was irritating to a degree .
+He did not pursue the subject further , and so several belated retorts were left tickling futilely the tongues of the Happy Family -- which does not make for amiability .
+To a man they liked him little , in spite of their easy friendliness with mankind in general .
+At supper they talked with him perfunctorily , and covertly sneered because he sprinkled his food liberally with cayenne and his speech with Spanish words pronounced with soft , slurred vowels that made them sound unfamiliar , and against which his English contrasted sharply with its crisp , American enunciation .
+He met their infrequent glances with the cool stare of absolute indifference to their opinion of him , and their perfunctory civility with introspective calm .
+The next morning , when there was riding to be done , and Miguel appeared at the last moment in his working clothes , even Weary , the sunny-hearted , had an unmistakable curl of his lip after the first glance .
+Miguel wore the hatband , the crimson kerchief tied loosely with the point draped over his chest , the stamped leather cuffs and the tan boots with the highest heels ever built by the cobbler craft .
+Also , the lower half of him was incased in chaps the like of which had never before been brought into Flying U coulee .
+Black Angora chaps they were ; long-haired , crinkly to the very hide , with three white , diamond-shaped patches running down each leg of them , and with the leather waistband stamped elaborately to match the cuffs .
+The bands of his spurs were two inches wide and inlaid to the edge with beaten silver , and each concho was engraved to represent a large , wild rose , with a golden center .
+A dollar laid upon the rowels would have left a fringe of prongs all around .
+He bent over his sacked riding outfit , and undid it , revealing a wonderful saddle of stamped leather inlaid on skirt and cantle with more beaten silver .
+He straightened the skirts , carefully ignoring the glances thrown in his direction , and swore softly to himself when he discovered where the leather had been scratched through the canvas wrappings and the end of the silver scroll ripped up .
+He drew out his bridle and shook it into shape , and the silver mountings and the reins of braided leather with horsehair tassels made Happy Jack 's eyes greedy with desire .
+His blanket was a scarlet Navajo , and his rope a rawhide lariat .
+Altogether , his splendor when he was mounted so disturbed the fine mental poise of the Happy Family that they left him jingling richly off by himself , while they rode closely grouped and discussed him acrimoniously .
+“ By gosh , a man might do worse than locate that Native Son for a silver mine , ” Cal began , eyeing the interloper scornfully .
+“ It 's plumb wicked to ride around with all that wealth and fussy stuff .
+He must ' a ' robbed a bank and put the money all into a riding outfit . ”
+“ By golly , he looks to me like a pair uh trays when he comes bow-leggin ' along with them white diamonds on his legs , ” Slim stated solemnly .
+“ And I 'll gamble that 's a spot higher than he stacks up in the cow game , ” Pink observed with the pessimism which matrimony had given him .
+“ You mind him asking about bad horses , last night ?
+That Lizzie-boy never saw a bad horse ; they do n't grow 'em where he come from .
+What they do n't know about riding they make up for with a swell rig -- ” “ And , oh , mamma !
+It sure is a swell rig ! ”
+Weary paid generous tribute .
+“ Only I will say old Banjo reminds me of an Irish cook rigged out in silk and diamonds .
+That outfit on Glory , now -- ” He sighed enviously .
+“ Well , I 've gone up against a few real ones in my long and varied career , ” Irish remarked reminiscently , “ and I 've noticed that a hoss never has any respect or admiration for a swell rig .
+When he gets real busy it ai n't the silver filigree stuff that 's going to help you hold connections with your saddle , and a silver-mounted bridle-bit ai n't a darned bit better than a plain one . ”
+“ Just take a look at him ! ” cried Pink , with intense disgust .
+“ Ambling off there , so the sun can strike all that silver and bounce back in our eyes .
+And that braided lariat -- I 'd sure love to see the pieces if he ever tries to anchor anything bigger than a yearling ! ”
+“ Why , you do n't think for a minute he could ever get out and rope anything , do yuh ? ”
+Irish laughed .
+“ That there Native Son throws on a-w-l-together too much dog to really get out and do anything . ”
+“ Aw , ” fleered Happy Jack , “ he ai n't any Natiff Son .
+He 's a dago ! ”
+“ He 's got the earmarks uh both , ” Big Medicine stated authoritatively .
+“ I know 'em , by cripes , and I know their ways . ”
+He jerked his thumb toward the dazzling Miguel .
+“ I can tell yuh the kinda cow-puncher he is ; I 've saw 'em workin ' at it .
+Haw-haw-haw !
+They 'll start out to move ten or a dozen head uh tame old cows from one field to another , and there 'll be six or eight fellers , rigged up like this here tray-spot , ridin ' along , important as hell , drivin ' them few cows down a lane , with peach trees on both sides , by cripes , jingling their big , silver spurs , all wearin ' fancy chaps to ride four or five miles down the road .
+Honest to grandma , they call that punchin ' cows !
+Oh , he 's a Native Son , all right .
+I 've saw lots of 'em , only I never saw one so far away from the Promised Land before .
+That there looks queer to me .
+Natiff Sons -- the real ones , like him -- are as scarce outside Calyforny as buffalo are right here in this coulee . ”
+“ That 's the way they do it , all right , ” Irish agreed .
+“ And then they 'll have a ' rodeo ' -- ” “ Haw-haw-haw ! ”
+Big Medicine interrupted , and took up the tale , which might have been entitled “ Some Cowpunching I Have Seen . ”
+“ They have them rodeos on a Sunday , mostly , and they invite everybody to it , like it was a picnic .
+And there 'll be two or three fellers to every calf , all lit up , like Mig-u-ell , over there , in chaps and silver fixin 's , fussin ' around on horseback in a corral , and every feller trying to pile his rope on the same calf , by cripes !
+They stretch 'em out with two ropes -- calves , remember !
+Little , weenty fellers you could pack under one arm !
+Yuh ca n't blame 'em much .
+They never have more 'n thirty or forty head to brand at a time , and they never git more 'n a taste uh real work .
+So they make the most uh what they git , and go in heavy on fancy outfits .
+And this here silver-mounted fellow thinks he 's a real cowpuncher , by cripes ! ”
+The Happy Family laughed at the idea ; laughed so loud that Miguel left his lonely splendor and swung over to them , ostensibly to borrow a match .
+“ What 's the joke ? ” he inquired languidly , his chin thrust out and his eyes upon the match blazing at the end of his cigarette .

+PART ONE -- The Old Buccaneer 1 The Old Sea-dog at the Admiral Benbow SQUIRE TRELAWNEY , Dr. Livesey , and the rest of these gentlemen having asked me to write down the whole particulars about Treasure Island , from the beginning to the end , keeping nothing back but the bearings of the island , and that only because there is still treasure not yet lifted , I take up my pen in the year of grace 17 __ and go back to the time when my father kept the Admiral Benbow inn and the brown old seaman with the sabre cut first took up his lodging under our roof .
+I remember him as if it were yesterday , as he came plodding to the inn door , his sea-chest following behind him in a hand-barrow -- a tall , strong , heavy , nut-brown man , his tarry pigtail falling over the shoulder of his soiled blue coat , his hands ragged and scarred , with black , broken nails , and the sabre cut across one cheek , a dirty , livid white .
+I remember him looking round the cover and whistling to himself as he did so , and then breaking out in that old sea-song that he sang so often afterwards : " Fifteen men on the dead man 's chest -- Yo-ho-ho , and a bottle of rum ! "
+in the high , old tottering voice that seemed to have been tuned and broken at the capstan bars .
+Then he rapped on the door with a bit of stick like a handspike that he carried , and when my father appeared , called roughly for a glass of rum .
+This , when it was brought to him , he drank slowly , like a connoisseur , lingering on the taste and still looking about him at the cliffs and up at our signboard .
+" This is a handy cove , " says he at length ; " and a pleasant sittyated grog-shop .
+Much company , mate ? "
+My father told him no , very little company , the more was the pity .
+" Well , then , " said he , " this is the berth for me .
+Here you , matey , " he cried to the man who trundled the barrow ; " bring up alongside and help up my chest .
+I 'll stay here a bit , " he continued .
+" I 'm a plain man ; rum and bacon and eggs is what I want , and that head up there for to watch ships off .
+What you mought call me ?
+You mought call me captain .
+Oh , I see what you 're at -- there " ; and he threw down three or four gold pieces on the threshold .
+" You can tell me when I 've worked through that , " says he , looking as fierce as a commander .
+And indeed bad as his clothes were and coarsely as he spoke , he had none of the appearance of a man who sailed before the mast , but seemed like a mate or skipper accustomed to be obeyed or to strike .
+The man who came with the barrow told us the mail had set him down the morning before at the Royal George , that he had inquired what inns there were along the coast , and hearing ours well spoken of , I suppose , and described as lonely , had chosen it from the others for his place of residence .
+And that was all we could learn of our guest .
+He was a very silent man by custom .
+All day he hung round the cove or upon the cliffs with a brass telescope ; all evening he sat in a corner of the parlour next the fire and drank rum and water very strong .
+Mostly he would not speak when spoken to , only look up sudden and fierce and blow through his nose like a fog-horn ; and we and the people who came about our house soon learned to let him be .
+Every day when he came back from his stroll he would ask if any seafaring men had gone by along the road .
+At first we thought it was the want of company of his own kind that made him ask this question , but at last we began to see he was desirous to avoid them .
+When a seaman did put up at the Admiral Benbow ( as now and then some did , making by the coast road for Bristol ) he would look in at him through the curtained door before he entered the parlour ; and he was always sure to be as silent as a mouse when any such was present .
+For me , at least , there was no secret about the matter , for I was , in a way , a sharer in his alarms .
+He had taken me aside one day and promised me a silver fourpenny on the first of every month if I would only keep my " weather-eye open for a seafaring man with one leg " and let him know the moment he appeared .
+Often enough when the first of the month came round and I applied to him for my wage , he would only blow through his nose at me and stare me down , but before the week was out he was sure to think better of it , bring me my four-penny piece , and repeat his orders to look out for " the seafaring man with one leg . "
+How that personage haunted my dreams , I need scarcely tell you .
+On stormy nights , when the wind shook the four corners of the house and the surf roared along the cove and up the cliffs , I would see him in a thousand forms , and with a thousand diabolical expressions .
+Now the leg would be cut off at the knee , now at the hip ; now he was a monstrous kind of a creature who had never had but the one leg , and that in the middle of his body .
+To see him leap and run and pursue me over hedge and ditch was the worst of nightmares .
+And altogether I paid pretty dear for my monthly fourpenny piece , in the shape of these abominable fancies .
+But though I was so terrified by the idea of the seafaring man with one leg , I was far less afraid of the captain himself than anybody else who knew him .
+There were nights when he took a deal more rum and water than his head would carry ; and then he would sometimes sit and sing his wicked , old , wild sea-songs , minding nobody ; but sometimes he would call for glasses round and force all the trembling company to listen to his stories or bear a chorus to his singing .
+Often I have heard the house shaking with " Yo-ho-ho , and a bottle of rum , " all the neighbours joining in for dear life , with the fear of death upon them , and each singing louder than the other to avoid remark .
+For in these fits he was the most overriding companion ever known ; he would slap his hand on the table for silence all round ; he would fly up in a passion of anger at a question , or sometimes because none was put , and so he judged the company was not following his story .
+Nor would he allow anyone to leave the inn till he had drunk himself sleepy and reeled off to bed .
+His stories were what frightened people worst of all .
+Dreadful stories they were -- about hanging , and walking the plank , and storms at sea , and the Dry Tortugas , and wild deeds and places on the Spanish Main .
+By his own account he must have lived his life among some of the wickedest men that God ever allowed upon the sea , and the language in which he told these stories shocked our plain country people almost as much as the crimes that he described .
+My father was always saying the inn would be ruined , for people would soon cease coming there to be tyrannized over and put down , and sent shivering to their beds ; but I really believe his presence did us good .
+People were frightened at the time , but on looking back they rather liked it ; it was a fine excitement in a quiet country life , and there was even a party of the younger men who pretended to admire him , calling him a " true sea-dog " and a " real old salt " and such like names , and saying there was the sort of man that made England terrible at sea .
+In one way , indeed , he bade fair to ruin us , for he kept on staying week after week , and at last month after month , so that all the money had been long exhausted , and still my father never plucked up the heart to insist on having more .
+If ever he mentioned it , the captain blew through his nose so loudly that you might say he roared , and stared my poor father out of the room .
+I have seen him wringing his hands after such a rebuff , and I am sure the annoyance and the terror he lived in must have greatly hastened his early and unhappy death .
+All the time he lived with us the captain made no change whatever in his dress but to buy some stockings from a hawker .
+One of the cocks of his hat having fallen down , he let it hang from that day forth , though it was a great annoyance when it blew .
+I remember the appearance of his coat , which he patched himself upstairs in his room , and which , before the end , was nothing but patches .
+He never wrote or received a letter , and he never spoke with any but the neighbours , and with these , for the most part , only when drunk on rum .
+The great sea-chest none of us had ever seen open .
+He was only once crossed , and that was towards the end , when my poor father was far gone in a decline that took him off .
+Dr. Livesey came late one afternoon to see the patient , took a bit of dinner from my mother , and went into the parlour to smoke a pipe until his horse should come down from the hamlet , for we had no stabling at the old Benbow .
+I followed him in , and I remember observing the contrast the neat , bright doctor , with his powder as white as snow and his bright , black eyes and pleasant manners , made with the coltish country folk , and above all , with that filthy , heavy , bleared scarecrow of a pirate of ours , sitting , far gone in rum , with his arms on the table .
+Suddenly he -- the captain , that is -- began to pipe up his eternal song : " Fifteen men on the dead man 's chest -- Yo-ho-ho , and a bottle of rum !
+Drink and the devil had done for the rest -- Yo-ho-ho , and a bottle of rum ! "
+At first I had supposed " the dead man 's chest " to be that identical big box of his upstairs in the front room , and the thought had been mingled in my nightmares with that of the one-legged seafaring man .
+But by this time we had all long ceased to pay any particular notice to the song ; it was new , that night , to nobody but Dr. Livesey , and on him I observed it did not produce an agreeable effect , for he looked up for a moment quite angrily before he went on with his talk to old Taylor , the gardener , on a new cure for the rheumatics .
+In the meantime , the captain gradually brightened up at his own music , and at last flapped his hand upon the table before him in a way we all knew to mean silence .
+The voices stopped at once , all but Dr. Livesey 's ; he went on as before speaking clear and kind and drawing briskly at his pipe between every word or two .
+The captain glared at him for a while , flapped his hand again , glared still harder , and at last broke out with a villainous , low oath , " Silence , there , between decks ! "

+CHAPTER I It was a Sunday evening in October , and in common with many other young ladies of her class , Katharine Hilbery was pouring out tea .
+Perhaps a fifth part of her mind was thus occupied , and the remaining parts leapt over the little barrier of day which interposed between Monday morning and this rather subdued moment , and played with the things one does voluntarily and normally in the daylight .
+But although she was silent , she was evidently mistress of a situation which was familiar enough to her , and inclined to let it take its way for the six hundredth time , perhaps , without bringing into play any of her unoccupied faculties .
+A single glance was enough to show that Mrs. Hilbery was so rich in the gifts which make tea-parties of elderly distinguished people successful , that she scarcely needed any help from her daughter , provided that the tiresome business of teacups and bread and butter was discharged for her .
+Considering that the little party had been seated round the tea-table for less than twenty minutes , the animation observable on their faces , and the amount of sound they were producing collectively , were very creditable to the hostess .
+It suddenly came into Katharine ’s mind that if some one opened the door at this moment he would think that they were enjoying themselves ; he would think , “ What an extremely nice house to come into ! ”
+and instinctively she laughed , and said something to increase the noise , for the credit of the house presumably , since she herself had not been feeling exhilarated .
+At the very same moment , rather to her amusement , the door was flung open , and a young man entered the room .
+Katharine , as she shook hands with him , asked him , in her own mind , “ Now , do you think we ’re enjoying ourselves enormously ? ”
+... “ Mr. Denham , mother , ” she said aloud , for she saw that her mother had forgotten his name .
+That fact was perceptible to Mr. Denham also , and increased the awkwardness which inevitably attends the entrance of a stranger into a room full of people much at their ease , and all launched upon sentences .
+At the same time , it seemed to Mr. Denham as if a thousand softly padded doors had closed between him and the street outside .
+A fine mist , the etherealized essence of the fog , hung visibly in the wide and rather empty space of the drawing-room , all silver where the candles were grouped on the tea-table , and ruddy again in the firelight .
+With the omnibuses and cabs still running in his head , and his body still tingling with his quick walk along the streets and in and out of traffic and foot-passengers , this drawing-room seemed very remote and still ; and the faces of the elderly people were mellowed , at some distance from each other , and had a bloom on them owing to the fact that the air in the drawing-room was thickened by blue grains of mist .
+Mr. Denham had come in as Mr. Fortescue , the eminent novelist , reached the middle of a very long sentence .
+He kept this suspended while the newcomer sat down , and Mrs. Hilbery deftly joined the severed parts by leaning towards him and remarking : “ Now , what would you do if you were married to an engineer , and had to live in Manchester , Mr. Denham ? ”
+“ Surely she could learn Persian , ” broke in a thin , elderly gentleman .
+“ Is there no retired schoolmaster or man of letters in Manchester with whom she could read Persian ? ”
+“ A cousin of ours has married and gone to live in Manchester , ” Katharine explained .
+Mr. Denham muttered something , which was indeed all that was required of him , and the novelist went on where he had left off .
+Privately , Mr. Denham cursed himself very sharply for having exchanged the freedom of the street for this sophisticated drawing-room , where , among other disagreeables , he certainly would not appear at his best .
+He glanced round him , and saw that , save for Katharine , they were all over forty , the only consolation being that Mr. Fortescue was a considerable celebrity , so that to-morrow one might be glad to have met him .
+“ Have you ever been to Manchester ? ”
+he asked Katharine .
+“ Never , ” she replied .
+“ Why do you object to it , then ? ”
+Katharine stirred her tea , and seemed to speculate , so Denham thought , upon the duty of filling somebody else ’s cup , but she was really wondering how she was going to keep this strange young man in harmony with the rest .
+She observed that he was compressing his teacup , so that there was danger lest the thin china might cave inwards .
+She could see that he was nervous ; one would expect a bony young man with his face slightly reddened by the wind , and his hair not altogether smooth , to be nervous in such a party .
+Further , he probably disliked this kind of thing , and had come out of curiosity , or because her father had invited him -- anyhow , he would not be easily combined with the rest .
+“ I should think there would be no one to talk to in Manchester , ” she replied at random .
+Mr. Fortescue had been observing her for a moment or two , as novelists are inclined to observe , and at this remark he smiled , and made it the text for a little further speculation .
+“ In spite of a slight tendency to exaggeration , Katharine decidedly hits the mark , ” he said , and lying back in his chair , with his opaque contemplative eyes fixed on the ceiling , and the tips of his fingers pressed together , he depicted , first the horrors of the streets of Manchester , and then the bare , immense moors on the outskirts of the town , and then the scrubby little house in which the girl would live , and then the professors and the miserable young students devoted to the more strenuous works of our younger dramatists , who would visit her , and how her appearance would change by degrees , and how she would fly to London , and how Katharine would have to lead her about , as one leads an eager dog on a chain , past rows of clamorous butchers ’ shops , poor dear creature .
+“ Oh , Mr. Fortescue , ” exclaimed Mrs. Hilbery , as he finished , “ I had just written to say how I envied her !
+I was thinking of the big gardens and the dear old ladies in mittens , who read nothing but the “ Spectator , ” and snuff the candles .
+Have they ALL disappeared ?
+I told her she would find the nice things of London without the horrid streets that depress one so . ”
+“ There is the University , ” said the thin gentleman , who had previously insisted upon the existence of people knowing Persian .
+“ I know there are moors there , because I read about them in a book the other day , ” said Katharine .
+“ I am grieved and amazed at the ignorance of my family , ” Mr. Hilbery remarked .
+He was an elderly man , with a pair of oval , hazel eyes which were rather bright for his time of life , and relieved the heaviness of his face .
+He played constantly with a little green stone attached to his watch-chain , thus displaying long and very sensitive fingers , and had a habit of moving his head hither and thither very quickly without altering the position of his large and rather corpulent body , so that he seemed to be providing himself incessantly with food for amusement and reflection with the least possible expenditure of energy .
+One might suppose that he had passed the time of life when his ambitions were personal , or that he had gratified them as far as he was likely to do , and now employed his considerable acuteness rather to observe and reflect than to attain any result .
+Katharine , so Denham decided , while Mr. Fortescue built up another rounded structure of words , had a likeness to each of her parents , but these elements were rather oddly blended .
+She had the quick , impulsive movements of her mother , the lips parting often to speak , and closing again ; and the dark oval eyes of her father brimming with light upon a basis of sadness , or , since she was too young to have acquired a sorrowful point of view , one might say that the basis was not sadness so much as a spirit given to contemplation and self-control .
+Judging by her hair , her coloring , and the shape of her features , she was striking , if not actually beautiful .
+Decision and composure stamped her , a combination of qualities that produced a very marked character , and one that was not calculated to put a young man , who scarcely knew her , at his ease .
+For the rest , she was tall ; her dress was of some quiet color , with old yellow-tinted lace for ornament , to which the spark of an ancient jewel gave its one red gleam .
+Denham noticed that , although silent , she kept sufficient control of the situation to answer immediately her mother appealed to her for help , and yet it was obvious to him that she attended only with the surface skin of her mind .
+It struck him that her position at the tea-table , among all these elderly people , was not without its difficulties , and he checked his inclination to find her , or her attitude , generally antipathetic to him .
+The talk had passed over Manchester , after dealing with it very generously .
+“ Would it be the Battle of Trafalgar or the Spanish Armada , Katharine ? ”
+her mother demanded .
+“ Trafalgar , mother . ”
+“ Trafalgar , of course !
+How stupid of me !
+Another cup of tea , with a thin slice of lemon in it , and then , dear Mr. Fortescue , please explain my absurd little puzzle .
+One ca n’t help believing gentlemen with Roman noses , even if one meets them in omnibuses . ”
+Mr. Hilbery here interposed so far as Denham was concerned , and talked a great deal of sense about the solicitors ’ profession , and the changes which he had seen in his lifetime .
+Indeed , Denham properly fell to his lot , owing to the fact that an article by Denham upon some legal matter , published by Mr. Hilbery in his Review , had brought them acquainted .
+But when a moment later Mrs. Sutton Bailey was announced , he turned to her , and Mr. Denham found himself sitting silent , rejecting possible things to say , beside Katharine , who was silent too .
+Being much about the same age and both under thirty , they were prohibited from the use of a great many convenient phrases which launch conversation into smooth waters .
+They were further silenced by Katharine ’s rather malicious determination not to help this young man , in whose upright and resolute bearing she detected something hostile to her surroundings , by any of the usual feminine amenities .
+They therefore sat silent , Denham controlling his desire to say something abrupt and explosive , which should shock her into life .
+But Mrs. Hilbery was immediately sensitive to any silence in the drawing-room , as of a dumb note in a sonorous scale , and leaning across the table she observed , in the curiously tentative detached manner which always gave her phrases the likeness of butterflies flaunting from one sunny spot to another , “ D’you know , Mr. Denham , you remind me so much of dear Mr. Ruskin ... .
+Is it his tie , Katharine , or his hair , or the way he sits in his chair ?
+Do tell me , Mr. Denham , are you an admirer of Ruskin ?
+Some one , the other day , said to me , ‘ Oh , no , we do n’t read Ruskin , Mrs. Hilbery . ’
+What DO you read , I wonder ?
+-- for you ca n’t spend all your time going up in aeroplanes and burrowing into the bowels of the earth . ”

+CHAPTER I There was no possibility of taking a walk that day .
+We had been wandering , indeed , in the leafless shrubbery an hour in the morning ; but since dinner ( Mrs. Reed , when there was no company , dined early ) the cold winter wind had brought with it clouds so sombre , and a rain so penetrating , that further out-door exercise was now out of the question .
+I was glad of it : I never liked long walks , especially on chilly afternoons : dreadful to me was the coming home in the raw twilight , with nipped fingers and toes , and a heart saddened by the chidings of Bessie , the nurse , and humbled by the consciousness of my physical inferiority to Eliza , John , and Georgiana Reed .
+The said Eliza , John , and Georgiana were now clustered round their mama in the drawing-room : she lay reclined on a sofa by the fireside , and with her darlings about her ( for the time neither quarrelling nor crying ) looked perfectly happy .
+Me , she had dispensed from joining the group ; saying , " She regretted to be under the necessity of keeping me at a distance ; but that until she heard from Bessie , and could discover by her own observation , that I was endeavouring in good earnest to acquire a more sociable and childlike disposition , a more attractive and sprightly manner -- something lighter , franker , more natural , as it were -- she really must exclude me from privileges intended only for contented , happy , little children . "
+" What does Bessie say I have done ? "
+I asked .
+" Jane , I do n't like cavillers or questioners ; besides , there is something truly forbidding in a child taking up her elders in that manner .
+Be seated somewhere ; and until you can speak pleasantly , remain silent . "
+A breakfast-room adjoined the drawing-room , I slipped in there .
+It contained a bookcase : I soon possessed myself of a volume , taking care that it should be one stored with pictures .
+I mounted into the window - seat : gathering up my feet , I sat cross-legged , like a Turk ; and , having drawn the red moreen curtain nearly close , I was shrined in double retirement .
+Folds of scarlet drapery shut in my view to the right hand ; to the left were the clear panes of glass , protecting , but not separating me from the drear November day .
+At intervals , while turning over the leaves of my book , I studied the aspect of that winter afternoon .
+Afar , it offered a pale blank of mist and cloud ; near a scene of wet lawn and storm-beat shrub , with ceaseless rain sweeping away wildly before a long and lamentable blast .
+I returned to my book -- Bewick 's History of British Birds : the letterpress thereof I cared little for , generally speaking ; and yet there were certain introductory pages that , child as I was , I could not pass quite as a blank .
+They were those which treat of the haunts of sea-fowl ; of " the solitary rocks and promontories " by them only inhabited ; of the coast of Norway , studded with isles from its southern extremity , the Lindeness , or Naze , to the North Cape -- " Where the Northern Ocean , in vast whirls , Boils round the naked , melancholy isles Of farthest Thule ; and the Atlantic surge Pours in among the stormy Hebrides . "
+Nor could I pass unnoticed the suggestion of the bleak shores of Lapland , Siberia , Spitzbergen , Nova Zembla , Iceland , Greenland , with " the vast sweep of the Arctic Zone , and those forlorn regions of dreary space , -- that reservoir of frost and snow , where firm fields of ice , the accumulation of centuries of winters , glazed in Alpine heights above heights , surround the pole , and concentre the multiplied rigours of extreme cold . "
+Of these death-white realms I formed an idea of my own : shadowy , like all the half-comprehended notions that float dim through children 's brains , but strangely impressive .
+The words in these introductory pages connected themselves with the succeeding vignettes , and gave significance to the rock standing up alone in a sea of billow and spray ; to the broken boat stranded on a desolate coast ; to the cold and ghastly moon glancing through bars of cloud at a wreck just sinking .
+I can not tell what sentiment haunted the quite solitary churchyard , with its inscribed headstone ; its gate , its two trees , its low horizon , girdled by a broken wall , and its newly-risen crescent , attesting the hour of eventide .
+The two ships becalmed on a torpid sea , I believed to be marine phantoms .
+The fiend pinning down the thief 's pack behind him , I passed over quickly : it was an object of terror .
+So was the black horned thing seated aloof on a rock , surveying a distant crowd surrounding a gallows .
+Each picture told a story ; mysterious often to my undeveloped understanding and imperfect feelings , yet ever profoundly interesting : as interesting as the tales Bessie sometimes narrated on winter evenings , when she chanced to be in good humour ; and when , having brought her ironing-table to the nursery hearth , she allowed us to sit about it , and while she got up Mrs. Reed 's lace frills , and crimped her nightcap borders , fed our eager attention with passages of love and adventure taken from old fairy tales and other ballads ; or ( as at a later period I discovered ) from the pages of Pamela , and Henry , Earl of Moreland .
+With Bewick on my knee , I was then happy : happy at least in my way .
+I feared nothing but interruption , and that came too soon .
+The breakfast - room door opened .
+" Boh !
+Madam Mope ! "
+cried the voice of John Reed ; then he paused : he found the room apparently empty .
+" Where the dickens is she ! "
+he continued .
+" Lizzy !
+Georgy !
+( calling to his sisters ) Joan is not here : tell mama she is run out into the rain -- bad animal ! "
+" It is well I drew the curtain , " thought I ; and I wished fervently he might not discover my hiding-place : nor would John Reed have found it out himself ; he was not quick either of vision or conception ; but Eliza just put her head in at the door , and said at once -- " She is in the window-seat , to be sure , Jack . "
+And I came out immediately , for I trembled at the idea of being dragged forth by the said Jack .
+" What do you want ? "
+I asked , with awkward diffidence .
+" Say , ' What do you want , Master Reed ? ' "
+was the answer .
+" I want you to come here ; " and seating himself in an arm-chair , he intimated by a gesture that I was to approach and stand before him .
+John Reed was a schoolboy of fourteen years old ; four years older than I , for I was but ten : large and stout for his age , with a dingy and unwholesome skin ; thick lineaments in a spacious visage , heavy limbs and large extremities .
+He gorged himself habitually at table , which made him bilious , and gave him a dim and bleared eye and flabby cheeks .
+He ought now to have been at school ; but his mama had taken him home for a month or two , " on account of his delicate health . "
+Mr. Miles , the master , affirmed that he would do very well if he had fewer cakes and sweetmeats sent him from home ; but the mother 's heart turned from an opinion so harsh , and inclined rather to the more refined idea that John 's sallowness was owing to over-application and , perhaps , to pining after home .
+John had not much affection for his mother and sisters , and an antipathy to me .
+He bullied and punished me ; not two or three times in the week , nor once or twice in the day , but continually : every nerve I had feared him , and every morsel of flesh in my bones shrank when he came near .
+There were moments when I was bewildered by the terror he inspired , because I had no appeal whatever against either his menaces or his inflictions ; the servants did not like to offend their young master by taking my part against him , and Mrs. Reed was blind and deaf on the subject : she never saw him strike or heard him abuse me , though he did both now and then in her very presence , more frequently , however , behind her back .
+Habitually obedient to John , I came up to his chair : he spent some three minutes in thrusting out his tongue at me as far as he could without damaging the roots : I knew he would soon strike , and while dreading the blow , I mused on the disgusting and ugly appearance of him who would presently deal it .
+I wonder if he read that notion in my face ; for , all at once , without speaking , he struck suddenly and strongly .
+I tottered , and on regaining my equilibrium retired back a step or two from his chair .
+" That is for your impudence in answering mama awhile since , " said he , " and for your sneaking way of getting behind curtains , and for the look you had in your eyes two minutes since , you rat ! "
+Accustomed to John Reed 's abuse , I never had an idea of replying to it ; my care was how to endure the blow which would certainly follow the insult .
+" What were you doing behind the curtain ? "
+he asked .
+" I was reading . "
+" Show the book . "
+I returned to the window and fetched it thence .
+" You have no business to take our books ; you are a dependent , mama says ; you have no money ; your father left you none ; you ought to beg , and not to live here with gentlemen 's children like us , and eat the same meals we do , and wear clothes at our mama 's expense .
+Now , I 'll teach you to rummage my bookshelves : for they _ are _ mine ; all the house belongs to me , or will do in a few years .
+Go and stand by the door , out of the way of the mirror and the windows . "
+I did so , not at first aware what was his intention ; but when I saw him lift and poise the book and stand in act to hurl it , I instinctively started aside with a cry of alarm : not soon enough , however ; the volume was flung , it hit me , and I fell , striking my head against the door and cutting it .
+The cut bled , the pain was sharp : my terror had passed its climax ; other feelings succeeded .

+May 7th .
+-- I love my garden .
+I am writing in it now in the late afternoon loveliness , much interrupted by the mosquitoes and the temptation to look at all the glories of the new green leaves washed half an hour ago in a cold shower .
+Two owls are perched near me , and are carrying on a long conversation that I enjoy as much as any warbling of nightingales .
+The gentleman owl says [ [ musical notes occur here in the printed text ] ] , and she answers from her tree a little way off , [ [ musical notes ] ] , beautifully assenting to and completing her lord ’s remark , as becomes a properly constructed German she-owl .
+They say the same thing over and over again so emphatically that I think it must be something nasty about me ; but I shall not let myself be frightened away by the sarcasm of owls .
+This is less a garden than a wilderness .
+No one has lived in the house , much less in the garden , for twenty-five years , and it is such a pretty old place that the people who might have lived here and did not , deliberately preferring the horrors of a flat in a town , must have belonged to that vast number of eyeless and earless persons of whom the world seems chiefly composed .
+Noseless too , though it does not sound pretty ; but the greater part of my spring happiness is due to the scent of the wet earth and young leaves .
+I am always happy ( out of doors be it understood , for indoors there are servants and furniture ) but in quite different ways , and my spring happiness bears no resemblance to my summer or autumn happiness , though it is not more intense , and there were days last winter when I danced for sheer joy out in my frost-bound garden , in spite of my years and children .
+But I did it behind a bush , having a due regard for the decencies .
+There are so many bird-cherries round me , great trees with branches sweeping the grass , and they are so wreathed just now with white blossoms and tenderest green that the garden looks like a wedding .
+I never saw such masses of them ; they seemed to fill the place .
+Even across a little stream that bounds the garden on the east , and right in the middle of the cornfield beyond , there is an immense one , a picture of grace and glory against the cold blue of the spring sky .
+My garden is surrounded by cornfields and meadows , and beyond are great stretches of sandy heath and pine forests , and where the forests leave off the bare heath begins again ; but the forests are beautiful in their lofty , pink-stemmed vastness , far overhead the crowns of softest gray-green , and underfoot a bright green wortleberry carpet , and everywhere the breathless silence ; and the bare heaths are beautiful too , for one can see across them into eternity almost , and to go out on to them with one ’s face towards the setting sun is like going into the very presence of God .
+In the middle of this plain is the oasis of birdcherries and greenery where I spend my happy days , and in the middle of the oasis is the gray stone house with many gables where I pass my reluctant nights .
+The house is very old , and has been added to at various times .
+It was a convent before the Thirty Years ’ War , and the vaulted chapel , with its brick floor worn by pious peasant knees , is now used as a hall .
+Gustavus Adolphus and his Swedes passed through more than once , as is duly recorded in archives still preserved , for we are on what was then the high-road between Sweden and Brandenburg the unfortunate .
+The Lion of the North was no doubt an estimable person and acted wholly up to his convictions , but he must have sadly upset the peaceful nuns , who were not without convictions of their own , sending them out on to the wide , empty plain to piteously seek some life to replace the life of silence here .
+From nearly all the windows of the house I can look out across the plain , with no obstacle in the shape of a hill , right away to a blue line of distant forest , and on the west side uninterruptedly to the setting sun -- nothing but a green , rolling plain , with a sharp edge against the sunset .
+I love those west windows better than any others , and have chosen my bedroom on that side of the house so that even times of hair-brushing may not be entirely lost , and the young woman who attends to such matters has been taught to fulfil her duties about a mistress recumbent in an easychair before an open window , and not to profane with chatter that sweet and solemn time .
+This girl is grieved at my habit of living almost in the garden , and all her ideas as to the sort of life a respectable German lady should lead have got into a sad muddle since she came to me .
+The people round about are persuaded that I am , to put it as kindly as possible , exceedingly eccentric , for the news has travelled that I spend the day out of doors with a book , and that no mortal eye has ever yet seen me sew or cook .
+But why cook when you can get some one to cook for you ?
+And as for sewing , the maids will hem the sheets better and quicker than I could , and all forms of needlework of the fancy order are inventions of the evil one for keeping the foolish from applying their heart to wisdom .
+We had been married five years before it struck us that we might as well make use of this place by coming down and living in it .
+Those five years were spent in a flat in a town , and during their whole interminable length I was perfectly miserable and perfectly healthy , which disposes of the ugly notion that has at times disturbed me that my happiness here is less due to the garden than to a good digestion .
+And while we were wasting our lives there , here was this dear place with dandelions up to the very door , all the paths grass-grown and completely effaced , in winter so lonely , with nobody but the north wind taking the least notice of it , and in May -- in all those five lovely Mays -- no one to look at the wonderful bird-cherries and still more wonderful masses of lilacs , everything glowing and blowing , the virginia creeper madder every year , until at last , in October , the very roof was wreathed with blood-red tresses , the owls and the squirrels and all the blessed little birds reigning supreme , and not a living creature ever entering the empty house except the snakes , which got into the habit during those silent years of wriggling up the south wall into the rooms on that side whenever the old housekeeper opened the windows .
+All that was here , -- peace , and happiness , and a reasonable life , -- and yet it never struck me to come and live in it .
+Looking back I am astonished , and can in no way account for the tardiness of my discovery that here , in this far-away corner , was my kingdom of heaven .
+Indeed , so little did it enter my head to even use the place in summer , that I submitted to weeks of seaside life with all its horrors every year ; until at last , in the early spring of last year , having come down for the opening of the village school , and wandering out afterwards into the bare and desolate garden , I do n’t know what smell of wet earth or rotting leaves brought back my childhood with a rush and all the happy days I had spent in a garden .
+Shall I ever forget that day ?
+It was the beginning of my real life , my coming of age as it were , and entering into my kingdom .
+Early March , gray , quiet skies , and brown , quiet earth ; leafless and sad and lonely enough out there in the damp and silence , yet there I stood feeling the same rapture of pure delight in the first breath of spring that I used to as a child , and the five wasted years fell from me like a cloak , and the world was full of hope , and I vowed myself then and there to nature , and have been happy ever since .
+My other half being indulgent , and with some faint thought perhaps that it might be as well to look after the place , consented to live in it at any rate for a time ; whereupon followed six specially blissful weeks from the end of April into June , during which I was here alone , supposed to be superintending the painting and papering , but as a matter of fact only going into the house when the workmen had gone out of it .
+How happy I was !
+I do n’t remember any time quite so perfect since the days when I was too little to do lessons and was turned out with sugar on my eleven o’clock bread and butter on to a lawn closely strewn with dandelions and daisies .
+The sugar on the bread and butter has lost its charm , but I love the dandelions and daisies even more passionately now than then , and never would endure to see them all mown away if I were not certain that in a day or two they would be pushing up their little faces again as jauntily as ever .
+During those six weeks I lived in a world of dandelions and delights .
+The dandelions carpeted the three lawns , -- they used to be lawns , but have long since blossomed out into meadows filled with every sort of pretty weed , -- and under and among the groups of leafless oaks and beeches were blue hepaticas , white anemones , violets , and celandines in sheets .
+The celandines in particular delighted me with their clean , happy brightness , so beautifully trim and newly varnished , as though they too had had the painters at work on them .
+Then , when the anemones went , came a few stray periwinkles and Solomon ’s Seal , and all the birdcherries blossomed in a burst .
+And then , before I had a little got used to the joy of their flowers against the sky , came the lilacs -- masses and masses of them , in clumps on the grass , with other shrubs and trees by the side of walks , and one great continuous bank of them half a mile long right past the west front of the house , away down as far as one could see , shining glorious against a background of firs .
+When that time came , and when , before it was over , the acacias all blossomed too , and four great clumps of pale , silvery-pink peonies flowered under the south windows , I felt so absolutely happy , and blest , and thankful , and grateful , that I really can not describe it .
+My days seemed to melt away in a dream of pink and purple peace .

+Chapter 1 It is a truth universally acknowledged , that a single man in possession of a good fortune , must be in want of a wife .
+However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood , this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families , that he is considered the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters .
+“ My dear Mr. Bennet , ” said his lady to him one day , “ have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last ? ”
+Mr. Bennet replied that he had not .
+“ But it is , ” returned she ; “ for Mrs. Long has just been here , and she told me all about it . ”
+Mr. Bennet made no answer .
+“ Do you not want to know who has taken it ? ”
+cried his wife impatiently .
+“ _ You _ want to tell me , and I have no objection to hearing it . ”
+This was invitation enough .
+“ Why , my dear , you must know , Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England ; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place , and was so much delighted with it , that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately ; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas , and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week . ”
+“ What is his name ? ”
+“ Bingley . ”
+“ Is he married or single ? ”
+“ Oh !
+Single , my dear , to be sure !
+A single man of large fortune ; four or five thousand a year .
+What a fine thing for our girls ! ”
+“ How so ?
+How can it affect them ? ”
+“ My dear Mr. Bennet , ” replied his wife , “ how can you be so tiresome !
+You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them . ”
+“ Is that his design in settling here ? ”
+“ Design !
+Nonsense , how can you talk so !
+But it is very likely that he _ may _ fall in love with one of them , and therefore you must visit him as soon as he comes . ”
+“ I see no occasion for that .
+You and the girls may go , or you may send them by themselves , which perhaps will be still better , for as you are as handsome as any of them , Mr. Bingley may like you the best of the party . ”
+“ My dear , you flatter me .
+I certainly _ have _ had my share of beauty , but I do not pretend to be anything extraordinary now .
+When a woman has five grown-up daughters , she ought to give over thinking of her own beauty . ”
+“ In such cases , a woman has not often much beauty to think of . ”
+“ But , my dear , you must indeed go and see Mr. Bingley when he comes into the neighbourhood . ”
+“ It is more than I engage for , I assure you . ”
+“ But consider your daughters .
+Only think what an establishment it would be for one of them .
+Sir William and Lady Lucas are determined to go , merely on that account , for in general , you know , they visit no newcomers .
+Indeed you must go , for it will be impossible for _ us _ to visit him if you do not . ”
+“ You are over-scrupulous , surely .
+I dare say Mr. Bingley will be very glad to see you ; and I will send a few lines by you to assure him of my hearty consent to his marrying whichever he chooses of the girls ; though I must throw in a good word for my little Lizzy . ”
+“ I desire you will do no such thing .
+Lizzy is not a bit better than the others ; and I am sure she is not half so handsome as Jane , nor half so good-humoured as Lydia .
+But you are always giving _ her _ the preference . ”
+“ They have none of them much to recommend them , ” replied he ; “ they are all silly and ignorant like other girls ; but Lizzy has something more of quickness than her sisters . ”
+“ Mr. Bennet , how _ can _ you abuse your own children in such a way ?
+You take delight in vexing me .
+You have no compassion for my poor nerves . ”
+“ You mistake me , my dear .
+I have a high respect for your nerves .
+They are my old friends .
+I have heard you mention them with consideration these last twenty years at least . ”
+“ Ah , you do not know what I suffer . ”
+“ But I hope you will get over it , and live to see many young men of four thousand a year come into the neighbourhood . ”
+“ It will be no use to us , if twenty such should come , since you will not visit them . ”
+“ Depend upon it , my dear , that when there are twenty , I will visit them all . ”
+Mr. Bennet was so odd a mixture of quick parts , sarcastic humour , reserve , and caprice , that the experience of three-and-twenty years had been insufficient to make his wife understand his character .
+_ Her _ mind was less difficult to develop .
+She was a woman of mean understanding , little information , and uncertain temper .
+When she was discontented , she fancied herself nervous .
+The business of her life was to get her daughters married ; its solace was visiting and news .
+Chapter 2 Mr. Bennet was among the earliest of those who waited on Mr. Bingley .
+He had always intended to visit him , though to the last always assuring his wife that he should not go ; and till the evening after the visit was paid she had no knowledge of it .
+It was then disclosed in the following manner .
+Observing his second daughter employed in trimming a hat , he suddenly addressed her with : “ I hope Mr. Bingley will like it , Lizzy . ”
+“ We are not in a way to know _ what _ Mr. Bingley likes , ” said her mother resentfully , “ since we are not to visit . ”
+“ But you forget , mamma , ” said Elizabeth , “ that we shall meet him at the assemblies , and that Mrs. Long promised to introduce him . ”
+“ I do not believe Mrs. Long will do any such thing .
+She has two nieces of her own .
+She is a selfish , hypocritical woman , and I have no opinion of her . ”
+“ No more have I , ” said Mr. Bennet ; “ and I am glad to find that you do not depend on her serving you . ”
+Mrs. Bennet deigned not to make any reply , but , unable to contain herself , began scolding one of her daughters .
+“ Do n't keep coughing so , Kitty , for Heaven 's sake !
+Have a little compassion on my nerves .
+You tear them to pieces . ”
+“ Kitty has no discretion in her coughs , ” said her father ; “ she times them ill . ”
+“ I do not cough for my own amusement , ” replied Kitty fretfully .
+“ When is your next ball to be , Lizzy ? ”
+“ To-morrow fortnight . ”
+“ Aye , so it is , ” cried her mother , “ and Mrs. Long does not come back till the day before ; so it will be impossible for her to introduce him , for she will not know him herself . ”
+“ Then , my dear , you may have the advantage of your friend , and introduce Mr. Bingley to _ her _ . ”
+“ Impossible , Mr. Bennet , impossible , when I am not acquainted with him myself ; how can you be so teasing ? ”
+“ I honour your circumspection .
+A fortnight 's acquaintance is certainly very little .
+One can not know what a man really is by the end of a fortnight .
+But if _ we _ do not venture somebody else will ; and after all , Mrs. Long and her neices must stand their chance ; and , therefore , as she will think it an act of kindness , if you decline the office , I will take it on myself . ”
+The girls stared at their father .
+Mrs. Bennet said only , “ Nonsense , nonsense ! ”
+“ What can be the meaning of that emphatic exclamation ? ”
+cried he .
+“ Do you consider the forms of introduction , and the stress that is laid on them , as nonsense ?
+I can not quite agree with you _ there _ .
+What say you , Mary ?
+For you are a young lady of deep reflection , I know , and read great books and make extracts . ”
+Mary wished to say something sensible , but knew not how .
+“ While Mary is adjusting her ideas , ” he continued , “ let us return to Mr. Bingley . ”
+“ I am sick of Mr. Bingley , ” cried his wife .
+“ I am sorry to hear _ that _ ; but why did not you tell me that before ?
+If I had known as much this morning I certainly would not have called on him .
+It is very unlucky ; but as I have actually paid the visit , we can not escape the acquaintance now . ”
+The astonishment of the ladies was just what he wished ; that of Mrs. Bennet perhaps surpassing the rest ; though , when the first tumult of joy was over , she began to declare that it was what she had expected all the while .
+“ How good it was in you , my dear Mr. Bennet !
+But I knew I should persuade you at last .
+I was sure you loved your girls too well to neglect such an acquaintance .
+Well , how pleased I am !
+and it is such a good joke , too , that you should have gone this morning and never said a word about it till now . ”
+“ Now , Kitty , you may cough as much as you choose , ” said Mr. Bennet ; and , as he spoke , he left the room , fatigued with the raptures of his wife .
+“ What an excellent father you have , girls ! ”
+said she , when the door was shut .
+“ I do not know how you will ever make him amends for his kindness ; or me , either , for that matter .
+At our time of life it is not so pleasant , I can tell you , to be making new acquaintances every day ; but for your sakes , we would do anything .
+Lydia , my love , though you _ are _ the youngest , I dare say Mr. Bingley will dance with you at the next ball . ”

+Chapter I My father 's family name being Pirrip , and my Christian name Philip , my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip .
+So , I called myself Pip , and came to be called Pip .
+I give Pirrip as my father 's family name , on the authority of his tombstone and my sister , -- Mrs. Joe Gargery , who married the blacksmith .
+As I never saw my father or my mother , and never saw any likeness of either of them ( for their days were long before the days of photographs ) , my first fancies regarding what they were like were unreasonably derived from their tombstones .
+The shape of the letters on my father 's , gave me an odd idea that he was a square , stout , dark man , with curly black hair .
+From the character and turn of the inscription , “ Also Georgiana Wife of the Above , ” I drew a childish conclusion that my mother was freckled and sickly .
+To five little stone lozenges , each about a foot and a half long , which were arranged in a neat row beside their grave , and were sacred to the memory of five little brothers of mine , -- who gave up trying to get a living , exceedingly early in that universal struggle , -- I am indebted for a belief I religiously entertained that they had all been born on their backs with their hands in their trousers-pockets , and had never taken them out in this state of existence .
+Ours was the marsh country , down by the river , within , as the river wound , twenty miles of the sea .
+My first most vivid and broad impression of the identity of things seems to me to have been gained on a memorable raw afternoon towards evening .
+At such a time I found out for certain that this bleak place overgrown with nettles was the churchyard ; and that Philip Pirrip , late of this parish , and also Georgiana wife of the above , were dead and buried ; and that Alexander , Bartholomew , Abraham , Tobias , and Roger , infant children of the aforesaid , were also dead and buried ; and that the dark flat wilderness beyond the churchyard , intersected with dikes and mounds and gates , with scattered cattle feeding on it , was the marshes ; and that the low leaden line beyond was the river ; and that the distant savage lair from which the wind was rushing was the sea ; and that the small bundle of shivers growing afraid of it all and beginning to cry , was Pip .
+“ Hold your noise ! ”
+cried a terrible voice , as a man started up from among the graves at the side of the church porch .
+“ Keep still , you little devil , or I 'll cut your throat ! ”
+A fearful man , all in coarse gray , with a great iron on his leg .
+A man with no hat , and with broken shoes , and with an old rag tied round his head .
+A man who had been soaked in water , and smothered in mud , and lamed by stones , and cut by flints , and stung by nettles , and torn by briars ; who limped , and shivered , and glared , and growled ; and whose teeth chattered in his head as he seized me by the chin .
+“ Oh !
+Do n't cut my throat , sir , ” I pleaded in terror .
+“ Pray do n't do it , sir . ”
+“ Tell us your name ! ”
+said the man .
+“ Quick ! ”
+“ Pip , sir . ”
+“ Once more , ” said the man , staring at me .
+“ Give it mouth ! ”
+“ Pip .
+Pip , sir . ”
+“ Show us where you live , ” said the man .
+“ Pint out the place ! ”
+I pointed to where our village lay , on the flat in-shore among the alder-trees and pollards , a mile or more from the church .
+The man , after looking at me for a moment , turned me upside down , and emptied my pockets .
+There was nothing in them but a piece of bread .
+When the church came to itself , -- for he was so sudden and strong that he made it go head over heels before me , and I saw the steeple under my feet , -- when the church came to itself , I say , I was seated on a high tombstone , trembling while he ate the bread ravenously .
+“ You young dog , ” said the man , licking his lips , “ what fat cheeks you ha ' got . ”
+I believe they were fat , though I was at that time undersized for my years , and not strong .
+“ Darn me if I could n't eat em , ” said the man , with a threatening shake of his head , “ and if I ha n't half a mind to ' t ! ”
+I earnestly expressed my hope that he would n't , and held tighter to the tombstone on which he had put me ; partly , to keep myself upon it ; partly , to keep myself from crying .
+“ Now lookee here ! ”
+said the man .
+“ Where 's your mother ? ”
+“ There , sir ! ”
+said I .
+He started , made a short run , and stopped and looked over his shoulder .
+“ There , sir ! ”
+I timidly explained .
+“ Also Georgiana .
+That 's my mother . ”
+“ Oh ! ”
+said he , coming back .
+“ And is that your father alonger your mother ? ”
+“ Yes , sir , ” said I ; “ him too ; late of this parish . ”
+“ Ha ! ”
+he muttered then , considering .
+“ Who d'ye live with , -- supposin ' you 're kindly let to live , which I ha n't made up my mind about ? ”
+“ My sister , sir , -- Mrs. Joe Gargery , -- wife of Joe Gargery , the blacksmith , sir . ”
+“ Blacksmith , eh ? ”
+said he .
+And looked down at his leg .
+After darkly looking at his leg and me several times , he came closer to my tombstone , took me by both arms , and tilted me back as far as he could hold me ; so that his eyes looked most powerfully down into mine , and mine looked most helplessly up into his .
+“ Now lookee here , ” he said , “ the question being whether you 're to be let to live .
+You know what a file is ? ”
+“ Yes , sir . ”
+“ And you know what wittles is ? ”
+“ Yes , sir . ”
+After each question he tilted me over a little more , so as to give me a greater sense of helplessness and danger .
+“ You get me a file . ”
+He tilted me again .
+“ And you get me wittles . ”
+He tilted me again .
+“ You bring 'em both to me . ”
+He tilted me again .
+“ Or I 'll have your heart and liver out . ”
+He tilted me again .
+I was dreadfully frightened , and so giddy that I clung to him with both hands , and said , “ If you would kindly please to let me keep upright , sir , perhaps I should n't be sick , and perhaps I could attend more . ”
+He gave me a most tremendous dip and roll , so that the church jumped over its own weathercock .
+Then , he held me by the arms , in an upright position on the top of the stone , and went on in these fearful terms : -- “ You bring me , to-morrow morning early , that file and them wittles .
+You bring the lot to me , at that old Battery over yonder .
+You do it , and you never dare to say a word or dare to make a sign concerning your having seen such a person as me , or any person sumever , and you shall be let to live .
+You fail , or you go from my words in any partickler , no matter how small it is , and your heart and your liver shall be tore out , roasted , and ate .
+Now , I ai n't alone , as you may think I am .
+There 's a young man hid with me , in comparison with which young man I am a Angel .
+That young man hears the words I speak .
+That young man has a secret way pecooliar to himself , of getting at a boy , and at his heart , and at his liver .
+It is in wain for a boy to attempt to hide himself from that young man .
+A boy may lock his door , may be warm in bed , may tuck himself up , may draw the clothes over his head , may think himself comfortable and safe , but that young man will softly creep and creep his way to him and tear him open .
+I am a keeping that young man from harming of you at the present moment , with great difficulty .
+I find it wery hard to hold that young man off of your inside .
+Now , what do you say ? ”
+I said that I would get him the file , and I would get him what broken bits of food I could , and I would come to him at the Battery , early in the morning .
+“ Say Lord strike you dead if you do n't ! ”
+said the man .
+I said so , and he took me down .
+“ Now , ” he pursued , “ you remember what you 've undertook , and you remember that young man , and you get home ! ”
+“ Goo-good night , sir , ” I faltered .
+“ Much of that ! ”
+said he , glancing about him over the cold wet flat .
+“ I wish I was a frog .
+Or a eel ! ”
+At the same time , he hugged his shuddering body in both his arms , -- clasping himself , as if to hold himself together , -- and limped towards the low church wall .
+As I saw him go , picking his way among the nettles , and among the brambles that bound the green mounds , he looked in my young eyes as if he were eluding the hands of the dead people , stretching up cautiously out of their graves , to get a twist upon his ankle and pull him in .
+When he came to the low church wall , he got over it , like a man whose legs were numbed and stiff , and then turned round to look for me .
+When I saw him turning , I set my face towards home , and made the best use of my legs .
+But presently I looked over my shoulder , and saw him going on again towards the river , still hugging himself in both arms , and picking his way with his sore feet among the great stones dropped into the marshes here and there , for stepping-places when the rains were heavy or the tide was in .

+BOOK I. MISS BROOKE .
+CHAPTER I. " Since I can do no good because a woman , Reach constantly at something that is near it .
+-- The Maid 's Tragedy : BEAUMONT AND FLETCHER .
+Miss Brooke had that kind of beauty which seems to be thrown into relief by poor dress .
+Her hand and wrist were so finely formed that she could wear sleeves not less bare of style than those in which the Blessed Virgin appeared to Italian painters ; and her profile as well as her stature and bearing seemed to gain the more dignity from her plain garments , which by the side of provincial fashion gave her the impressiveness of a fine quotation from the Bible , -- or from one of our elder poets , -- in a paragraph of to-day 's newspaper .
+She was usually spoken of as being remarkably clever , but with the addition that her sister Celia had more common-sense .
+Nevertheless , Celia wore scarcely more trimmings ; and it was only to close observers that her dress differed from her sister 's , and had a shade of coquetry in its arrangements ; for Miss Brooke 's plain dressing was due to mixed conditions , in most of which her sister shared .
+The pride of being ladies had something to do with it : the Brooke connections , though not exactly aristocratic , were unquestionably " good : " if you inquired backward for a generation or two , you would not find any yard-measuring or parcel-tying forefathers -- anything lower than an admiral or a clergyman ; and there was even an ancestor discernible as a Puritan gentleman who served under Cromwell , but afterwards conformed , and managed to come out of all political troubles as the proprietor of a respectable family estate .
+Young women of such birth , living in a quiet country-house , and attending a village church hardly larger than a parlor , naturally regarded frippery as the ambition of a huckster 's daughter .
+Then there was well-bred economy , which in those days made show in dress the first item to be deducted from , when any margin was required for expenses more distinctive of rank .
+Such reasons would have been enough to account for plain dress , quite apart from religious feeling ; but in Miss Brooke 's case , religion alone would have determined it ; and Celia mildly acquiesced in all her sister 's sentiments , only infusing them with that common-sense which is able to accept momentous doctrines without any eccentric agitation .
+Dorothea knew many passages of Pascal 's Pensees and of Jeremy Taylor by heart ; and to her the destinies of mankind , seen by the light of Christianity , made the solicitudes of feminine fashion appear an occupation for Bedlam .
+She could not reconcile the anxieties of a spiritual life involving eternal consequences , with a keen interest in gimp and artificial protrusions of drapery .
+Her mind was theoretic , and yearned by its nature after some lofty conception of the world which might frankly include the parish of Tipton and her own rule of conduct there ; she was enamoured of intensity and greatness , and rash in embracing whatever seemed to her to have those aspects ; likely to seek martyrdom , to make retractations , and then to incur martyrdom after all in a quarter where she had not sought it .
+Certainly such elements in the character of a marriageable girl tended to interfere with her lot , and hinder it from being decided according to custom , by good looks , vanity , and merely canine affection .
+With all this , she , the elder of the sisters , was not yet twenty , and they had both been educated , since they were about twelve years old and had lost their parents , on plans at once narrow and promiscuous , first in an English family and afterwards in a Swiss family at Lausanne , their bachelor uncle and guardian trying in this way to remedy the disadvantages of their orphaned condition .
+It was hardly a year since they had come to live at Tipton Grange with their uncle , a man nearly sixty , of acquiescent temper , miscellaneous opinions , and uncertain vote .
+He had travelled in his younger years , and was held in this part of the county to have contracted a too rambling habit of mind .
+Mr. Brooke 's conclusions were as difficult to predict as the weather : it was only safe to say that he would act with benevolent intentions , and that he would spend as little money as possible in carrying them out .
+For the most glutinously indefinite minds enclose some hard grains of habit ; and a man has been seen lax about all his own interests except the retention of his snuff-box , concerning which he was watchful , suspicious , and greedy of clutch .
+In Mr. Brooke the hereditary strain of Puritan energy was clearly in abeyance ; but in his niece Dorothea it glowed alike through faults and virtues , turning sometimes into impatience of her uncle 's talk or his way of " letting things be " on his estate , and making her long all the more for the time when she would be of age and have some command of money for generous schemes .
+She was regarded as an heiress ; for not only had the sisters seven hundred a-year each from their parents , but if Dorothea married and had a son , that son would inherit Mr. Brooke 's estate , presumably worth about three thousand a-year -- a rental which seemed wealth to provincial families , still discussing Mr. Peel 's late conduct on the Catholic question , innocent of future gold-fields , and of that gorgeous plutocracy which has so nobly exalted the necessities of genteel life .
+And how should Dorothea not marry ?
+-- a girl so handsome and with such prospects ?
+Nothing could hinder it but her love of extremes , and her insistence on regulating life according to notions which might cause a wary man to hesitate before he made her an offer , or even might lead her at last to refuse all offers .
+A young lady of some birth and fortune , who knelt suddenly down on a brick floor by the side of a sick laborer and prayed fervidly as if she thought herself living in the time of the Apostles -- who had strange whims of fasting like a Papist , and of sitting up at night to read old theological books !
+Such a wife might awaken you some fine morning with a new scheme for the application of her income which would interfere with political economy and the keeping of saddle-horses : a man would naturally think twice before he risked himself in such fellowship .
+Women were expected to have weak opinions ; but the great safeguard of society and of domestic life was , that opinions were not acted on .
+Sane people did what their neighbors did , so that if any lunatics were at large , one might know and avoid them .
+The rural opinion about the new young ladies , even among the cottagers , was generally in favor of Celia , as being so amiable and innocent-looking , while Miss Brooke 's large eyes seemed , like her religion , too unusual and striking .
+Poor Dorothea !
+compared with her , the innocent-looking Celia was knowing and worldly-wise ; so much subtler is a human mind than the outside tissues which make a sort of blazonry or clock-face for it .
+Yet those who approached Dorothea , though prejudiced against her by this alarming hearsay , found that she had a charm unaccountably reconcilable with it .
+Most men thought her bewitching when she was on horseback .
+She loved the fresh air and the various aspects of the country , and when her eyes and cheeks glowed with mingled pleasure she looked very little like a devotee .
+Riding was an indulgence which she allowed herself in spite of conscientious qualms ; she felt that she enjoyed it in a pagan sensuous way , and always looked forward to renouncing it .
+She was open , ardent , and not in the least self-admiring ; indeed , it was pretty to see how her imagination adorned her sister Celia with attractions altogether superior to her own , and if any gentleman appeared to come to the Grange from some other motive than that of seeing Mr. Brooke , she concluded that he must be in love with Celia : Sir James Chettam , for example , whom she constantly considered from Celia 's point of view , inwardly debating whether it would be good for Celia to accept him .
+That he should be regarded as a suitor to herself would have seemed to her a ridiculous irrelevance .
+Dorothea , with all her eagerness to know the truths of life , retained very childlike ideas about marriage .
+She felt sure that she would have accepted the judicious Hooker , if she had been born in time to save him from that wretched mistake he made in matrimony ; or John Milton when his blindness had come on ; or any of the other great men whose odd habits it would have been glorious piety to endure ; but an amiable handsome baronet , who said " Exactly " to her remarks even when she expressed uncertainty , -- how could he affect her as a lover ?
+The really delightful marriage must be that where your husband was a sort of father , and could teach you even Hebrew , if you wished it .
+These peculiarities of Dorothea 's character caused Mr. Brooke to be all the more blamed in neighboring families for not securing some middle-aged lady as guide and companion to his nieces .
+But he himself dreaded so much the sort of superior woman likely to be available for such a position , that he allowed himself to be dissuaded by Dorothea 's objections , and was in this case brave enough to defy the world -- that is to say , Mrs. Cadwallader the Rector 's wife , and the small group of gentry with whom he visited in the northeast corner of Loamshire .
+So Miss Brooke presided in her uncle 's household , and did not at all dislike her new authority , with the homage that belonged to it .
+Sir James Chettam was going to dine at the Grange to-day with another gentleman whom the girls had never seen , and about whom Dorothea felt some venerating expectation .
+This was the Reverend Edward Casaubon , noted in the county as a man of profound learning , understood for many years to be engaged on a great work concerning religious history ; also as a man of wealth enough to give lustre to his piety , and having views of his own which were to be more clearly ascertained on the publication of his book .
+His very name carried an impressiveness hardly to be measured without a precise chronology of scholarship .
+Early in the day Dorothea had returned from the infant school which she had set going in the village , and was taking her usual place in the pretty sitting-room which divided the bedrooms of the sisters , bent on finishing a plan for some buildings ( a kind of work which she delighted in ) , when Celia , who had been watching her with a hesitating desire to propose something , said --
