The fire had smoldered to ashes; the room was filled with the damp, mild air of the cloudy evening; and so still, that not only the murmur of the beck down Gimmerton was distinguishable, but its ripples, and its gurgling over the pebbles, or through the large stones which it could not cover.
Wuthering Heights rose above this silvery vapour; but our old house was invisible; it rather dips down on the other side." In six lines she can paint sound, and distance, and scenery, and the turn of the seasons, and the two magics of two atmospheres.

There shall be an explanation as soon as I can give it; only just have the goodness to step out and order the carriage to take me on to Gimmerton, and tell a servant to seek up a few clothes in my wardrobe. The intruder was Mrs. Heathcliff.
The servants thought me gone to shake off the drowsiness of my protracted watch; in reality, my chief motive was seeing Mr. Heathcliff.

'How will she take it? I exclaimed. 'What will she do? The surprise bewilders me it will put her out of her head! And you are Heathcliff! But altered! Nay, there's no comprehending it. Have you been for a soldier?
They're allas three wick' after other folk wi' ther harvest. 'Gimmerton? I repeated my residence in that locality had already grown dim and dreamy. 'Ah! I know. How far is it from this?
