Especially are they needed by the pedestalled woman in her conflict with the natural. Diana saw herself through the haze she conjured up. 'Am I worse than other women? was a piercing twithought. Worse, would be hideous isolation. The not worse, abased her sex. She could afford to say that the world was bad: not that women were.
Very soft she answered, and with eyes abased: "Think on what I have told thee, and sing of love." And so she sighed, and looked on him once, then wheeled her palfrey, and was gone up the glade; but Beltane, as he watched her go, was seized of a sudden impulse and over-took her, running. "Beseech thee," cried he, barring her path, "tell me thy name!"
The old servant looked up at her, simply. "Madame would be alone with monsieur?" asked he. "It will be better." Lady Catharine Knollys, left alone, gazed upon the sleeper. John Law, the failure, lay there, supine, abased, cast-down, undone, shorn utterly of his old arrogance of mind and mien. Fortune, wealth, even the boon of physical well-being all had fled from him.
"But he will make it all right when he returns." She started, of a sudden. Cunningly as Ruth had dressed herself, Mrs. Harry's eyes guessed the truth. "You have written to him?" "No." "He guesses, at least?" "No." "Then you are writing to him? There is enough time." "No." Their eyes met. Ruth's asked, "And if I do not, will you?"

"Not outwardly perhaps, but in their hearts." "I can't tell," said Ethel, "but it is the being triumphed over that I cannot bear." "Perhaps this is all a lesson in humility for us," said Margaret "It is teaching us, 'Whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted."
To attempt an explanation with those who had so mortally outraged him to open to them the depth of his heart to allude to the criminal thought they had accused him of he had repelled with horror, the evening before, when proposed by another. He thought of all this; but this humiliation if he could have so abased himself would have been useless.

Strengthened by years of hard and solemn trial, she felt herself no longer so inadequate to cope with Roger Chillingworth as on that night, abased by sin, and half maddened by the ignominy that was still new, when they had talked together in the prison-chamber. She had climbed her way, since then, to a higher point.
