I dare say I could, rise to being cruel as well. Let's look on the bright side of things. Tell me, darling, when will you marry me?" "Those iniquitous marriage-laws," she murmured. "It makes one think...." She looked down, weighing grave things. "My dearest, you can forget the marriage-laws.
It seems to me that either you ought not to have done it, or else been prepared for some of this uproar." "But because a man becomes a Socialist, are they to libel him in these foul ways?" "I don't mean that. It's not only that you are a Socialist, but that you have defied their marriage-laws." "But I haven't!" exclaimed Darrel. "What do you mean?" asked Thyrsis, perplexed.
Why should the poor child's life be loveless? She had a definitely low opinion of men, and a lower of the state of the marriage-laws; in her view, any woman who struck a blow in that direction was something of a heroine.

The Report of that Commission is published in London; and is accessible to any body who chooses to pay the price of two or three shillings for it.
And indeed Ellen was sitting there very stiffly, turning her hands together and looking down on them as if she despised them for their cantrips. She wished her marriage had not been decided quite like this. Of course she wanted to be married, because, whatever the marriage-laws were like, there was no other way by which she and Richard could tell everybody what they were to each other.
