Kesiah, in an ugly grey dressing-gown, tied at the waist with a black cord, was drying Mrs. Gay's sheets before the radiator. At Molly's entrance, she turned, and said warningly, "Patsey is rubbing Angela after her bath. What was that about Old Church, dear?" "Jonathan has promised to take me down there to-morrow." "To spend the day? Well, I suppose we may trust you with him."
It was well that Leigh had taken his place beside her, for suddenly her figure swayed; his arm closed round her and, calling to the captain to help him, he lowered her and laid her on the deck. "My sister has fainted. Bring a bucket of water." Madame Flambard took Patsey from him. "She thinks she sees her husband in that boat," Leigh said. "Pray try and get her round, before it comes up.
Francois walked by the horse's head. Patsey, the nurse, and the child, with a trunk containing articles of absolute necessity, occupied the cart. Jean and Leigh rode ahead. The company of Cathelineau's scouts no longer existed. More than half of them had fallen in the late battles.
But what were these enthusiasms compared to the deep-seated ecstasy of Freddy Alexander as in his new pink coat he rode down the main street of Enniscar, Patsey in equal splendour bringing up the rear, unspeakably conscious of the jibes of his relatives and friends.

"I agree with you in that, Patsey. Well, we will regard the matter as settled.
"That is your mother's room," she said, pointing to a closed door, "and this is yours. Patsey will make a fire." "It's rather gloomy, isn't it?" "Shall I bring you wine? I have the key to the cellar." "Brandy, if you please. The place feels as if it had been shut up for a century." "It was your uncle's room. Do you mind sleeping here? It's the easiest to get ready."
