She feels her innocence and freshness like a magnet, drawing out her own sorrows and grievances. My poor Alice what a wreck! Could I have done more? could I? He walked on absently, his hands behind his back, his face working painfully. Eleanor was touched.
We are, on the whole, inclined to think, though we would speak with diffidence on a point on which it would be rash to pronounce a positive judgment without a much longer and closer investigation than we have bestowed upon it, that the labouring classes of this island, though they have their grievances and distresses, some produced by their own improvidence, some by the errors of their rulers, are on the whole better off as to physical comforts than the inhabitants of an equally extensive district of the old world.
But I must reach Gersau to-day. Whatever grievances your rulers' pride And grasping avarice may yet inflict, Bear them in patience soon a change may come. Another emperor may mount the throne.
