Besides, I couldn't be such friends with any other dog but Jip; because he wouldn't have known me before I was married, and wouldn't have barked at Doady when he first came to our house. I couldn't care for any other dog but Jip, I am afraid, aunt. 'To be sure! said my aunt, patting her cheek again. 'You are right. 'You are not offended, said Dora. 'Are you?
I have ceased to carry my light burden up and down stairs now. She lies here all the day. 'Doady! 'My dear Dora! 'You won't think what I am going to say, unreasonable, after what you told me, such a little while ago, of Mr. Wickfield's not being well? I want to see Agnes. Very much I want to see her. 'I will write to her, my dear. 'Will you? 'Directly. 'What a good, kind boy!
'I am very sorry, she said. 'Will you try to teach me, Doady? 'I must teach myself first, Dora, said I. 'I am as bad as you, love. 'Ah! But you can learn, she returned; 'and you are a clever, clever man! 'Nonsense, mouse! said I. 'I wish, resumed my wife, after a long silence, 'that I could have gone down into the country for a whole year, and lived with Agnes!
He was terribly tempted to tell what he looked on as the very best joke in the world only well no perhaps better not if you once let a thing slip out it often gets spoken of, nobody knows how; and as Rowley had whispered at the door, "Teddy, I say, not a word about having seen me before," and he had answered "Honour bright, old chap; you may trust me," he'd keep the matter dark; only there was one to score against Miss Doady Donne for telling him last night at dinner that she was going to play propriety to a friend that day.
I have tried to resign myself, and to console myself; and that, I hope, I may have done imperfectly; but what I cannot firmly settle in my mind is, that the end will absolutely come. I hold her hand in mine, I hold her heart in mine, I see her love for me, alive in all its strength. I cannot shut out a pale lingering shadow of belief that she will be spared. 'I am going to speak to you, Doady.
I take my little wife to my heart; and Miss Lavinia gives a little scream because I tumble the bonnet, and Dora laughs and cries at once, because I am so pleased; and I believe it less than ever. 'Do you think it pretty, Doady? says Dora. Pretty! I should rather think I did. 'And are you sure you like me very much? says Dora.
You never sit and tell me stories about Doady, when his shoes were worn out, and he was covered with dust oh, what a poor little mite of a fellow! You never do anything at all to please me, do you, dear? Dora made haste to kiss my aunt, and say, 'Yes, you do! I'm only joking!'-lest my aunt should think she really meant it. 'But, aunt, said Dora, coaxingly, 'now listen. You must go.
Doady asked a question about some friend in whom she had formerly felt an interest; this led to past reminiscences and the telling of some good story, over which Rowley was still laughing when there came a crash, followed by a bump and a swaying forward and back. "Hang the fellow, he's run into another hansom!"
And here is my aunt coming soon; and you'll like her of all things too, when you know her. 'No, please don't bring her! said Dora, giving me a horrified little kiss, and folding her hands. 'Don't. I know she's a naughty, mischief-making old thing! Don't let her come here, Doady! which was a corruption of David.
She had fought the good fight and now she was very very happy. Those who have passed on, who have gone before, are happy too as they gaze down and smile upon the touching scene. And as her loving eyes behold her babe she wishes only one blessing more, to have her dear Doady there with her to share her joy, to lay in his arms that mite of God's clay, the fruit of their lawful embraces.
