She was looking away from him again. "I am not sure that I like you better for your having discovered yourself. I liked the other David Kent." He smiled rather joylessly.
The dull February day was drawing towards its close when he stepped out upon the road that led to his native village. Joylessly he saw the familiar details of the neighbourhood appearing out of the fog, and he gave a casual, uninterested glance over the fields that bordered the highway. Before the turnpike-keeper's cottage he stood still a moment.
He got it against his breast joylessly, and then bade her to try the weight of the two. She did try them, and Anthony doated on the wonder of her face. "Uncle, see what riches do! You fear everybody you think there is no secure place you have more? Do you carry about all your money?" "No," he chuckled at her astonishment. "I've...Yes. I've got more of my own."

It was such a feeling as when the death of some loved person puts an end to the long, tormenting anxiety of the foregoing illness. I, who had centred everything round one thought, must now start joylessly along new paths. My outburst, which astonished myself, was: "How I wanted a heart!" I could not at once feel it a relief that my fancies had all been dissipated into thin air.
Morton went to her, as she struggled with the patient good-natured sister, and began to soothe and caress her, till she turned on him her large humid eyes, and said, mournfully, "Tu es mechant, tu. Poor Fanny!" "But this pretty doll " began the sister. The child looked at it joylessly. "And papa is going to die!"
