If you have any little remark to make, you drop it in; and she helps you to make remarks by this delicate little appeal of the trumpet, as she slightly directs it towards you; and if you have nothing to say, the appeal is not strong enough to embarrass you. All her talk was about herself and her affairs; but it did not seem like egotism, because it was so cheerful and free from morbidness.
In the medicine of Nature a chronic and abiding disquietude or morbidness of temperament is often cured by some keen though more transient sorrow which violently changes the current of our thoughts and imaginations. The difference between knowledge and realisation is one of the facts of our nature that are most worthy of our attention.
But they were hidden deep in Elsmere's memory. A few days afterward he was casually told that Madame de Netteville had left England for some time. As a matter of fact he never set eyes on her again. After a while the extravagance of his self-blame abated. He saw things as they were without morbidness. But a certain boyish carelessness of mood he never afterward quite recovered.
There are others who focus in an instant all your latent distrust, morbidness and rebellion against life. Without knowing why, you chafe and fret in their presence.

Thus it was evident there was no morbidness in him, no obscurity, nothing eccentric, nothing that removed him in any way from his fellows, except that royal personality of his, that strong, beautiful, well-balanced Spirit in him, which exercised such a bewildering spell on all who came within its influence, He believed himself loved by an Angel! Well, if there WERE angels, why not?
