I should be an affected woman if I made any pretence of being surprised by my son's inspiring such emotions; but I cannot be indifferent to anyone who is so sensible of his merit, and I am very glad to see you here, and can assure you that he feels an unusual friendship for you, and that you may rely on his protection.

Miss Dartle placed herself in a chair, within view of the door, and looked downward, as if Emily were crouching on the floor before her. Being now between me and the light, I could see her curled lip, and her cruel eyes intently fixed on one place, with a greedy triumph. 'Listen to what I say! she said; 'and reserve your false arts for your dupes. Do you hope to move me by your tears?
Miss Dartle was full of hints and mysterious questions, but took a great interest in all our proceedings there, and said, 'Was it really though? and so forth, so often, that she got everything out of me she wanted to know.
I am glad to know that, because I always like to be put right when I am wrong, said Rosa Dartle. 'You mean it is a little dry, perhaps? 'Well, I replied; 'perhaps it was a little dry.
