"I have a letter from Greta, Uncle Nic; shall I read it?"
They can't think anything else. It's beastly of them, I know, but this is a beastly world, dear, and it doesn't do to go on behaving as if it wasn't." "I don't care. If people are beastly it's their look-out, not mine. The beastlier they are the less I care." "I don't suppose you care if the vicar's wife won't call or if Lady Corbett and the Hawtreys cut you.

And I think uncle was right, and the way you stand up for the honour of our house is not all nonsense, like I said it was. If we ever meet in the future life I hope you will not keep a down on me about things. I don't think you can expect me to say more. From your affectionate cousin, "Archibald Bastable."
Mawg, her late captor, she had hated with a murderous hate; yet she had submitted to him, in a dim way biding her time for vengeance.
