"To die to sleep!" he said in a thick voice: 'No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to; 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To die to sleep! 'To sleep to sleep, he muttered several times.
To be sure, he could not use the words of very truth. He would much have preferred to speak with unflinching honesty, to confess that he had, even of late, often dwelt on the thought of Emily with tenderness, with something of heart-ache; but that the new love had, for all that, triumphed over the old, and would henceforth grow to perfectness.
Fleda could not speak for the heart-ache. "It is harder to leave this place than all the rest," Mrs. Rossitur murmured, after some little time had passed on. "He is not here," said Fleda's soothing voice. It set her aunt to crying again. "No I know it," she said. "We shall see him again. Think of that." "You will," said Mrs. Rossitur, very sadly.
With an impulsive forward sweep of her hands she interrupted him and her voice was burdened with deep pain and heart-ache. "Don't!" she pleaded, and the monosyllable was like a cry. "Oh, don't!" Then after a little while she went on slowly: "You are a romanticist, Paul, and a dreamer. Some day you will wake up. We all do." "It was better to tell you, dear, wasn't it? It would have been unfair "
You were all I had, and when you gave yourself away from me I was left alone with the heart-ache, and began to think myself born to live without love. 'In spite of the lovers you had in London? 'You know better. That was the Honourable Miss Martindale. What did they know of the real Theodora? 'Poor critturs, what indeed! They would have run far enough if they had. 'I knew it.
'I had a holiday yesterday, Aunt Betsy; and really I had rather not go. The day is so very warm, and I have a slight headache already. 'Go and lose it in the wood, where Rosalind lost her heart-ache. Nothing like a long ramble when one is a little out of sorts. Go and get rid of your basket, and get your sunshade. Where are you going for your botanising?
There is to me a mystery in this something that looks like a partial Providence for those who grope sadly through life in darkened paths are, so far as human judgment can determine, often purer and less selfish than those who move gayly along in perpetual sunshine. Look at Mrs. Adair. It always gives me the heart-ache to think of what she has endured in life, and still endures.
Burton millions were melting like hailstones falling on hot metal, and when the session ended Len Haswell turned away with an empty face. For two days he had almost forgotten, in his battle-lust, his own heart-ache. Now it was over and because he had followed Hamilton Burton with his own small fortunes as a camp-follower trails an army corps, he knew that he was wiped out and ruined.
He was a brisk and light-hearted stripling, and Kate Malcolm was budding into a very rose of beauty; so between them a hankering began, which, for a season, was productive of great heaviness of heart to the poor old cripple lady; indeed, she assured me herself, that all her rheumatics were nothing to the heart-ache which she suffered in the progress of this business.
I made Mother's birthday wreath out of the flowers in your bed and mine. Jemima broke the slop-basin of the green and white tea-set to-day. It was the last piece left. I am trying to forgive her," the Major made no harsher remark than, "A storm in a slop-basin! Your sister is not a brilliant letter-writer, certainly." The source of another heart-ache for Madam Liberality was poor Tom.
