'Then he goes on, said Julia, 'to explain the alterations he contemplates making. There's no use reading you all that. 'I suppose you think I should not understand. 'My dear Emily, if you want to read the letter, there it is.
Burnett had adopted her, and she remembered the joy of coming to Ashwood. She had thought to find happiness there; but there, as at home, fate had gone against her, and she was hardly eighteen when Mr. Burnett had asked her to marry him.

Not even Dick Benyon was altogether free from this reproach, in spite of his enthusiasm and his resulting blindness to Quisanté's lesser, but not less galling, faults.

But why do you say such things? You destroy all my pleasure, and I was so happy just now. 'I'm afraid, Emily, your happiness hangs on a very slender thread. She looked at him inquiringly, but feeling that it would be unwise to attempt an explanation, he said in a different tone 'But, Emily, if you love Ashwood so well, why do you go away?

This is one of the rascaille Spaniards who have poured into the city under favour of the queen to spoil and ruin the lawful trade. Though could you but have seen, Ambrose, how our tough English ashwood in King Harry's hand from our own armoury too made all go down before it, you would never uphold strangers and their false wares that CAN only get the better by sorcery."
