Augusta had gone away on a short visit and Pamela had promised to spend as much time as possible with her mother. "You won't be here much longer," Mrs. Hope had said, "so spend as much time with me as you can spare, and we'll talk books and quote poetry, and," she had finished defiantly, "I'll miscall my neighbours if I feel inclined."
But now, clinging to her as the representative of fortune, happiness, social status, he felt that she was assuredly his best and dearest upon earth. "To think that you never really cared for me!" she whimpered; "that you married me for the sake of this house, and my income!" "Pamela, do you remember what Tom Jones said to his mistress when she pretended to doubt his love?"
When it was Quarterly Meeting or the Bishop dedicated the church or they went to town on court days, you should have seen them until Pryors came. Then something new happened, and not a woman in our neighbourhood liked it. Pamela Pryor didn't follow the fashions. She set them.
Elizabeth Bremerton put down her teacup, glanced at the father and daughter, and went discreetly away, back to the library and her work. Pamela hesitated a little, but at last moved nearer to him, and put a hand on his arm. 'Father! I dreadfully want you to let me do something! 'Eh, what? said Mannering, rousing himself. 'Don't try and coax me, child. It doesn't answer.
Pamela, as being nearest to Dab in age and sympathy, gave a very admiring look at her brother's second "good fit," and said nothing. Even Keziah finally admitted, in her own mind, that such a change in Dabney's appearance might have its advantages. But Samantha inwardly declared war. The young hero himself was hardly used to that second suit, as yet, and felt any thing but easy in it.
It was left, therefore, to Philanax, the regent, to deal with the difficulties that surrounded the administration of justice the offences of Musidorus and Pyrocles, of Philoclea and Pamela, who now became heir to the throne, and the complicity of the Queen in the death of the King.
"You will meet at my house men of wit and talent, Elleviou, Talma, the citoyen Vigée, who turns bouts-rimés with a marvellous aptitude. The citoyen François read us his 'Paméla' the other day, the piece rehearsing at the present moment at the Théâtre de la Nation. The style is elegant and chaste, as everything is that comes from the citoyen François' pen.
"Your brother's share of these rooms isn't anything more than he can afford," Mr. Fischer assured her. "That I can promise you. I guess his firm is doing well just now. If they've many more clients like me they are." "It is very nice of you to put business in his way," Pamela said thoughtfully. "I wonder why you do it, Mr. Fischer?" "Why shouldn't I?"
Fischer seemed still at a loss for words. "I can assure you," he said at last fervently, "that if that packet was stolen from Miss Van Teyl by Nikasti, it was done without my instigation. It is as much a surprise to me as to any of you. We can congratulate ourselves that it is not on the way to Japan." Pamela nodded. "He is speaking the truth," she asserted.
Don't say so, Pamela, because this is an unavoidable consequence of the happy prospect before us. Only bear it well yourself, because she is my sister; and leave it to me to make her sensible of her own rashness.
