Dr Nettleby at this point interrupted any further exchange of civilities between the captain and the Spaniard, who was profuse in his thanks, declaring that his patient required rest, or he would not be able to go ashore either at Madeira or any other place on this planet.
Nettleby was in one of his obstinate fits, and could not be brought to listen to the scheme so near her heart: "He would have nothing to do, he said, with settling the terms of Mr. and Mrs. Bolingbroke's separation, not he! He absolutely refuses to meddle between man and wife; and calls it meddling," continued Mrs. Nettleby, "to receive you as an inmate, after you have parted from your husband.
Emma left the room; and even Mrs. Nettleby, after she was gone, said, "Really she is not ugly when she blushes." "No woman is ugly when she blushes," replied our heroine; "but, unluckily, a woman cannot always blush." Finding that her attempt to make Emma ridiculous had failed, and that it had really placed Mrs.
"I shall not go," said she, throwing down the card with an air of disdain. "I shall go," said her husband, calmly. "You will go, my dear!" cried she, amazed. "You will go without me?" "Not without you, if you will be so kind as to go with me, my love," said he. "It is quite out of my power," said she: "I am engaged to my friend, Mrs. Nettleby." "Very well, my dear," said he; "do as you please."
"I could live very happily with this man; but then to yield the victory to him! and to reform! No, no all reformed heroines are stupid and odious." "And, vanquish'd, quit victoriously the field." Griselda flung the book from her as her husband entered the room. "You have had an answer, madam, from your friend, Mrs. Nettleby, I perceive," said he, calmly. "I have, sir.
"Bu-but I'd rather not go to the sick bay, sir, if you don't mind. I don't want anyone to hear of wha what has hap-hap-happened." "Ah, yes, I see," said Dr Nettleby. "You're afraid of some of your nice messmates getting hauled over the coals?
John Nettleby, it is a matter of perfect indifference to me; I only just mentioned it as a thing of course; I beg you will not do it on my account: I hope you will do whatever you think best and what pleases yourself, upon this and every other occasion. I shall never more presume to offer my advice." Nothing more could be obtained from the submissive wife; she went to Mr.
So saying, Mr Jellaby swung himself across the frothing chasm that lay between him and the object of his pity, with the coxswain of the cutter after him, while Dr Nettleby and I remained by the mainmast bitts, Corporal Macan busying himself in getting the doctor's medical traps ready for immediate use.
There may be some poor fellow on the wreck in need of immediate medical aid; and it will be a great saving of time, indeed, it may be the means of saving a life, if it be on the spot instead of your having to send back to the ship for it. Sentry, pass the word below for Dr Nettleby."
