They are very wicked, and eat most dreadfully if she even takes one day's holiday. What do you think they even do? She has told me with tears in her eyes of it. They are all allowed a pat of butter, a penny roll, and two sardines for breakfast. No sooner do they know that her back is turned " "Erema!" cried my cousin, with some surprise; and being so recalled, I was ashamed.
"Drift and dash, and roar and rush, and the devil let loose in the thick of it. My eyes are worn out with it. Take the glass, Erema, and tell us who is next to be washed away. A new set of clothes-props for Mrs. Mangles I paid for the very day I came back from town."
Can you tell me otherwise? If you did, I should despise you." "If you put it so, I can say no more. You will leave us forever, Erema?" "No, not forever. If the good God wills it, I will come back when my work is done. Forgive me, dear Firm, and forget me." "There is nothing to forgive, Erema; but a great deal I never can hope to forgot."
I will talk with you, Erema, when we both have leisure." "I am quite at leisure, Major Hockin," I replied, "and only too happy to listen to you." "Yes, yes, I dare say. You are in lodgings. You can do exactly as you please. But I have a basin of ox-tail soup, a cutlet, and a woodcock waiting for me at the Cosmopolitan Hotel. Bless me! I am five minutes late already.
"Never mind, my dear, we will make that all right. You shall not be a savage always. We will take the opportunity to change your name. Erema is popish and outlandish; one scarcely knows how to pronounce it. You shall have a good English Christian name Jemima, Jane, or Sophy. Trust me to know a good name. Trust me." "Jemima!" I cried. "Oh, Mr. Shovelin, save me from ever being called Jemima!
"Now after I have told you all this, Miss Erema, you know very nearly as much as I do.
But so far as a layman may judge, Major Hockin, I think you will have to transfer to me the care of this young lady." "I shall be only too happy, I assure you," the Major answered, truthfully. "My wife has a great regard for her, and so have I the very greatest, the strongest regard, and warm parental feelings; as you know, Erema.
I can listen to almost any thing now quite calmly. But never let me hear such a wicked thing again." "You must not go on like that, Erema, unless you wish to lose all your friends. No one can help being sorry for you. Very few girls have been placed as you are. I am sure when I think of my own daughters I can never be too thankful.
At length he sank unconsciously into a reverie, and began to ponder as to what sort of people wanted these productions? It did not seem remarkable to him that the Russian populace should gaze with rapture upon "Eruslanoff Lazarevitch," on "The Glutton" and "The Carouser," on "Thoma and Erema." The delineations of these subjects were easily intelligible to the masses.
But if you desire it, and now that I feel certain that an infamous wrong has been done to you which I heartily beg your pardon for my doubt of by the Lord of all justice, every thing else may go to the devil, till I see it out. Do you desire it, Erema?" "I certainly do not wish that any of your great works should be neglected.
