"Well, now," replied Anthony, the corners of whose mouth dropped again at this startling and not inappropriate comparison, "to show how much you are mistaken, let me ask how your business with Lord Cullamore gets on? I believe there's a screw loose there? eh? I mean on your side eh?"
Nurse me, now, if I died without seeing her Countess of Cullamore, but I'd break my heart. 'Make way, there way for the Countess of Cullamore! ha! does not that sound well? But then, the old Earl! Curse him, what keeps him on the stage so long? Away with the old carrion! away with him! But what was that that happened to-day, or yesterday? Misery, torture, perdition! disgraced, undone, ruined!
Now, my lady," he added, addressing her, "I see how you are sufferin', but I ask it as a favor that you will keep yourself quiet, and let me go on." "Proceed, then," said Lord Cullamore; "and do you, Lady Gourlay, restrain your emotion, if you can." "Thomas Gourlay I spake now to the father, my lord," said Corbet.
I hope you are now satisfied, papa?" "I am, Lucy I am. You are not so bad a girl as I sus no, you are a very good girl; and when I see you the Countess of Cullamore, I shall not have a single wish un-gratified." Lucy, indeed, poor girl, was well and vigilantly guarded.
All we have to say is, that if he wanted a spot from which to keep a sharp look-out and, between ourselves, he did want it grievously barring Slieve Croob, or Slieve Donard, or its own cousin, Cullamore, he could not find a neater or more convenient situation for it in the sweet and sagacious province of Ulster.
I shall not see Lord Cullamore; it would be now impossible; I could not sustain an interview with him. You, consequently, can have nothing to fear; you can say I am ill, and that will be truth indeed." "I shall never relax one moment," he replied, "until I either subdue you, or break your obstinate heart. Come, madam," said he, "I will conduct you to your apartment."
Lord Cullamore sat, as if unconsciously, in an arm-chair beside the table on which were placed his son's dressings and medicines, and resting his head on his hand for a moment, as if suffering pain, at length raised it, and said, "No, Dunroe; no. I trust my innocent girl will never live to feel the impropriety of asking a question so natural?"
Every young baggage must have her scenes and her sacrifices. Ah! what a knack they have got at magnifying everything! How do you do, my Lady Dunroe? half a dozen times repeated, however, will awaken her vanity, and banish all this girlish rodomontade." "'Room for the Countess of Cullamore, will soon follow," replied his lordship, laughing, "and that will be still better.
In the mean time, I am much obliged to you, and you may calculate upon my services wherever they can be made available to your interests. I would not now hurry you away nor request you to curtail your visit, were it not that I expect Lord Cullamore here in about half an hour, or perhaps less, and I wish to see Miss Gourlay previous to his arrival."
Norton, was a very foolish and unpleasant affair altogether." "Nothing could be more so, my lord. It was altogether wrong on the part of Dunroe, and so I told him."
