To her but two thoughts were present how she had wronged Darrell how ungrateful and faithless she must seem to him; and in the impulse of her remorse, and in the childlike candour of her soul, artlessly, ingenuously, she poured out her feelings to the husband she had taken as counsellor and guide, as if seeking to guard all her sorrow for the past from a sentiment that might render her less loyal to the responsibilities which linked her future to another's.

"A faithless friend, a bitter enemy," was Lycias' thought as striding forth from the room, he joined Lucius. "It is worse than I feared," Lucius said. "There is little hope."
