This unhappy time, this "Greensickness," as he called it, came to an end, however, through the help of what Louis had always secretly longed for friends.
She looked at him with such an expression of hate and contempt that he could not but be sensitive of the girl's passionate beauty. Her face was of the colour that greensickness imparts. Her features were exquisitely delicate. In contrast, Ingigerd's face, with which Frederick fleetingly compared hers, seemed unrefined, even coarse.
But there are the qualifications of the martyr in Mrs. Macartney." "Greensickness," Urquhart proposed; "is that what you mean?" Lingen stared. "It had not occurred to me. But now you mention it well, a congestion of the faculties, eh?" "I don't know anything about it," said Urquhart. "She seemed to me a fond mother, and very properly. Do you mean that Macartney neglects her?"
The earlier fever in her blood had gradually dropped to the greensickness of middle-age, so that she was vaguely repellent to men, particularly the young. This she had the wit to detect, as well as the incontrovertible fact that her youth and her chances were gone. As a natural consequence her repressed but still rebellious passions diffused their poison throughout her nature.
