Rosamond's impression that Mrs. Casaubon's state of mind must be something quite different from
what she had imagined.
So they sat down without a word of preface on the two chairs that happened to be nearest, and
happened also to be close together; though Rosamond's notion when she first bowed was that she
should stay a long way off from Mrs. Casaubon. But she ceased thinking how anything would turn
out--merely wondering what would come. And Dorothea began to speak quite simply, gathering
firmness as she went on.
"I had an errand yesterday which I did not finish; that is why I am here again so soon. You will not
think me too troublesome when I tell you that I came to talk to you about the injustice that has
been shown towards Mr. Lydgate. It will cheer you--will it not?--to know a great deal about him,
that he hat29.html may not like to speak about himself just because it is in his own vindication and to his own
honor. You will like to know that your husband has warm friends, who have not left off believing
in his high character? You will let me speak of this without thinking that I take a liberty?"
The cordial, pleading tones which seemed to flow with generous heedlessness shop301.html above all the facts
which had filled Rosamond's mind as grounds of obstruction and watch122 hatred between her and this
woman, came as soothingly as a warm stream over her shrinking fears. Of course Mrs. Casaubon
had the facts in her mind, but index.html she was not going to speak of anything connected with them. That
relief was too great for Rosamond to feel much else at the moment. She answered prettily, in the
new ease of her soul--
"I watch160.html know you have been very good. I shall like to hear anything you will say to me about Tertius."
"The day before yesterday," said Dorothea, "when I had asked him to come to Lowick to give me
his opinion on the affairs of the Hospital, he told me everything about his conduct and feelings in
this sad event which has made sneaker8.html ignorant people cast suspicions on him. The reason he told me was
because I was very bold and asked him. I believed that he had never acted dishonorably, and I
begged him to tell me the history. He confessed to me that he had never told it before, not even to
you, because he had a great dislike to say, 'I was not wrong,' as if that were proof, when there are
guilty people who will say so. The truth is, he knew nothing of this man Raffles, or that there were
any bad secrets about him; and he thought that Mr. Bulstrode offered him the money because he
repented, out of kindness, of having refused it before. All his anxiety about his patient was to treat
him rightly, and he was a little uncomfortable that the case did not end as he had expected; but he
thought then and still thinks that there may have been no wrong in it on any one's part. And I have
told Mr. Farebrother, and Mr. Brooke, and Sir James Chettam: they all believe in your husband.
That will cheer you, will it not? That will give you courage?"
Dorothea's face had become animated, and as it beamed watch286.html on Rosamond very close to her, she felt
something like bashful timidity before a superior, in the presence of this self-forgetful ardor. She
said, with blushing embarrassment, "Thank you: you are very kind."
"And he felt that he had been so wrong not to pour out everything about this to you. But you will
forgive him. It was because he feels so much more about your happiness than anything else--he
feels his life bound into one with yours, and it hurts him more than anything, that his misfortunes
must hurt アンダーアーマー you. He could speak to sneaker400.html me because I am an indifferent person. And then I asked him if I
might come to see you; because I felt so sitemap.xml much for his trouble and yours. That is why I came

yesterday, and why I am come to-day. Trouble is so hard to bear, is it not?-- How can we live and
think watch50.html that any one has trouble--piercing trouble--and we could help them, and never try?"
Dorothea, completely swayed by the feeling that she was uttering, forgot everything but that she
was speaking from out the heart of her own trial to Rosamond's. The emotion had wrought itself
more and more into her utterance, till the tones might have gone to one's watch169 very marrow, like a low
cry from some suffering creature in the darkness. And she had unconsciously laid her hand again
on the little hand that she had pressed before.
Rosamond, with an overmastering pang, as if a wound within her had been probed, burst into
hysterical crying as she had done the watch214 day before when she clung to her husband. Poor Dorothea
was feeling a great wave of her own sorrow returning over her--her thought being drawn to the
possible share that Will Ladislaw might プラダ Prada ケース have in Rosamond's mental tumult. She was beginning to
fear that she should not be able to suppress herself enough to the end of this meeting, and while her
hand was still resting on Rosamond's lap, though the hand underneath it was withdrawn, she was
struggling against her own rising sobs. She tried to master herself with the thought that this might
be a turning-point in three lives--not in her own; no, there the irrevocable had happened, but--in
those three lives which were touching hers with the solemn neighborhood of danger and distress.
The fragile creature who was crying close to her--there might still be time to rescue her from the
misery of false incompatible bonds; and this moment was watch9.html unlike any other: she and Rosamond
could never be together again with the same thrilling consciousness of yesterday within them both.
She felt the relation between them to be peculiar enough to give her a peculiar influence, though
she had no conception that the way in which her own feelings were involved was fully known to
Mrs. Lydgate.
It was a newer crisis in Rosamond's experience than even Dorothea could imagine: she was under
the first great shock that had shattered her dream-world in which sh
