Very likely it was a dread of Vivie's sneers and disappointment that had mainly kept back Norie from accepting Major Armstrong's advances. Well, when next they met she Vivie or better still David would set that right. 7, Fig Tree Court, Temple. March 20, 1902. I am going down to spend Easter with my people in South Wales.
That's going to be my first struggle with Man: to claim admittance to the Bar.... If we can once breach that rampart the Vote must inevitably follow. Oh how we have been dumb before our shearers! The rottenness of Man's law.... The perjury, corruption, waste of time, special pleading that go on in our male courts of injustice, the verdicts of male juries!" Norie: "Just so.

"I take my John Norie and my Gunter's Scale, and I work out my day's work as well as any man; and what more should I want to know, tell me? Your mathematicians are all humbugs in my opinion, and that's a fact." I mention these little traits in Hanks' character, because I shall now have to bid him farewell for a season.

"No, by Heaven!" replied Lovel, "it was a human voice." A distant hail was repeated, the sound plainly distinguishable among the various elemental noises, and the clang of the sea-mews by which they were surrounded.
Vivie: "Ye-es.... But you can't provide for many more of our college-mates. Any more gone wrong?" Norie: "It depends how you qualify 'wrong. I really don't see that it is 'wronger' for a young woman to yield to 'storgé' and have a baby out of wedlock than for a man to engender that baby.
