I then showed Patty the letter, and we both condoled my hard fortune, but saw no remedy. Time wore away, and nothing done, or like to be, as I could see. For my part, I was like one distracted, and no more able to assist or counsel what should be done than a child in arms.
"But what's the use of kicking?" asked Fred, after they had fully discussed the situation; "it can't be helped." Nevertheless, they condoled with each other for some time, until, lulled by the gentle patter, they floated off once more into the land of Nod, from which they did not emerge until morning. The first doleful fact that impressed them was that it was still raining.

M. de Saa had been almost as badly treated by the Charpillon as myself, and we might have condoled with one another, but the subject was not mentioned.
Marcella, of course, was greeted and condoled with Lady Selina, however, had seen her since the tragedy and then Lady Winterbourne, after every item of her family news, and every symptom of her own and her husband's health had been rigorously enquired into, began to attempt some feeble questions of her own how, for instance, was Lord Alresford's gout?

You feel then that you'm doing something. I get tired of play. I like a game of cricket or football, but I mean the other sort of play."
