As the cigarettes were handed round, Pamela's eyes looked longingly at a tray of Turkish coffee which was passing. "I'm a rotten host," Holderness declared, "but, to tell you the truth, this queer prank of Sandy's has driven everything else out of my mind. Here, Hassan!" The coloured man in gorgeous oriental livery turned at once with a smile.
Williams, added he, I give you Pamela's hand, because I know it will be pleasing to her, in token of her friendship and esteem for you; and I give you mine, that I will not be your enemy: but yet I must say, that I think I owe this proper manner of your thinking more to your disappointment, than to the generosity you talk of. Mr.
It must be conceded to him that some capital scenes are the result of this post-hymeneal treatment; that, to illustrate, where the haughty sister of Pamela's husband calls on the woman she believes to be her husband's mistress. Yet there is an effect of anti-climax; the main excitement getting Pamela honestly wedded is over. But we must not forget the moral purpose: Mr.
And then Theo went to bed also; but did not sleep, of course; only lay with eyes wide open to the darkness, as any other girl would have done, thinking excitedly of Pamela's generous gifts, and of Lady Throckmorton, and, perhaps, more than once the strange chance which had brought to light again the wedding-day, that was never more than the sad ghost of a wedding, and the bridal gifts that had come to the bride from a dead hand.
She had never seen such dresses in Downport before. These things of Pamela's had only come from London the day of Arthur's death, and had never been opened for family inspection. Some motherly instinct, even in Mrs. North's managing economy, had held them sacred, and so they had rested.
Williams, replied I, you should not have said so. O, said my master, that is one of the best things of all. Poor Mrs. Jewkes stands for Edom's Sons; and we must not lose this, because I think it one of my Pamela's excellencies, that, though thus oppressed, she prays for no harm upon the oppressor. Read, Mr. Williams, the next stanza. So he read: VII.
But on the morning before she went she had worked superhumanly to put things in order, whether for her typist, or Captain Dell, or Pamela, who must at least take over the housekeeping. The relations between her and Miss Bremerton that morning had struck Mrs. Gaddesden as odd certainly not cordial. But there was nothing to complain of in Pamela's conduct.
But Pamela's 'Thank you, but I'd rather not trouble you I can do it quite well' was so frosty that Elizabeth could only retire bewildered to the library, where she and the Squire gave a morning's work to the catalogue, and never said a word of farm or timber.
"And what becomes of her at the end of the story?" he asked. The cook simpered. "It's Pamela who is the virtuous young person, sir. And so the story comes true Pamela, or Virtue Rewarded." "Who rewards her?" Was there ever anything so lucky as this? Pamela's situation was fast becoming the cook's situation.
But when Tim even great grown-up, twelve years old Tim knelt down to admire the tiny feet at Pamela's call, Duke condescended to count the toes one by one for himself, and to say what a pity it was Toby was not here baby could ride so nicely on Toby's back, couldn't she?
