Not that we give christening dinners; but I waited for the trial at Lynneborough to be over, that my dear brother Richard might stand to the child." "Mr. Carlyle does not like christenings made into festivals," Lady Isabel dreamily observed, her thoughts buried in the past. "How do you know that?" exclaimed Barbara, opening her eyes.
Lady Isabel had, a month or two back, been attacked with illness; she recovered from the disorder; but it had left her in an alarming state of weakness; she seemed to get worse instead of better, and Dr. Martin was summoned from Lynneborough. The best thing he could recommend as you save seen was change of air.
We went to Lynneborough to see Martin's picture of the Last Judgment I don't mean Dr. Martin," said William interrupting himself. "I know." "There were three pictures. One was called the 'Plains of Heaven, and I liked that best; and so we all did. Oh, you should have seen it! Did you ever see them, Madame Vine?" "No. I have heard of them."
Her sight failed; her head reeled; her very heart turned to sickness. One struggling cry of pain; and, for the second time that day, Afy Hallijohn fell forward in a fainting fit. Shouts, hisses, execrations, yells! The prisoners were being brought forth, to be conveyed to Lynneborough.
There was no blaze, the red embers were smoldering and half dead, but Madame Vine did not bestir herself to heed the fire. William lay on the sofa, and she sat by, looking at him. Her glasses were off, for the tears wetted them continually; and it was not the recognition of the children she feared. He was tired with the drive to Lynneborough and back, and lay with eyes shut; she thought asleep.
