M. PELET could not of course object to the proposal made by Mdlle. Reuter; permission to accept such additional employment, should it offer, having formed an article of the terms on which he had engaged me. It was, therefore, arranged in the course of next day that I should be at liberty to give lessons in Mdlle. Reuter's establishment four afternoons in every week.
When there she carefully sought, and having found, industriously pursued the trail of her old suitor, M. Pelet. She soon overtook him.
This system answered, and my influence, by degrees, became established on a firm basis. "The boy is father to the man," it is said; and so I often thought when looked at my boys and remembered the political history of their ancestors. Pelet's school was merely an epitome of the Belgian nation. AND Pelet himself? How did I continue to like him? Oh, extremely well!
Take care, however, you don't betray either of us to Zoraide to my daughter, I mean; she is so discreet and circumspect herself, she cannot understand that one should find a pleasure in gossiping a little " "C'est absolument comme mon fils!" cried Madame Pelet. "All the world is so changed since our girlhood!" rejoined the other: "young people have such old heads now. But to return, Monsieur.
I left my card, and retraced my steps. A WEEK is gone; LE JOUR DES NOCES arrived; the marriage was solemnized at St. Jacques; Mdlle. Zoraide became Madame Pelet, NEE Reuter; and, in about an hour after this transformation, "the happy pair," as newspapers phrase it, were on their way to Paris; where, according to previous arrangement, the honeymoon was to be spent.
I thought this very kind, and indeed I found afterwards that the terms on which M. Pelet had engaged me were really liberal for Brussels; instruction being extremely cheap there on account of the number of teachers. It was further arranged that I should be installed in my new post the very next day, after which M. Pelet and I parted.
Malham-Dembleby's most important contribution to the subject. M. Héger, Mr. Malham-Dembleby declares, was Heathcliff before he was M. Pelet, or Rochester, or M. Paul. And as it was Charlotte and not Emily who experienced passion, Charlotte alone was able to immortalize it. So much Mr. Malham-Dembleby assumes in the interests of psychology.
No sooner had the holidays commenced than note of preparation for some momentous event sounded all through the premises of Pelet: painters, polishers, and upholsterers were immediately set to work, and there was talk of "la chambre de Madame," "le salon de Madame."
Another answered; the first voice was that of a man, the second that of a woman; and a man and a woman I saw coming slowly down the alley. Their forms were at first in shade, I could but discern a dusk outline of each, but a ray of moonlight met them at the termination of the walk, when they were under my very nose, and revealed very plainly, very unequivocally, Mdlle. And M. Pelet was saying
"Ah, yes! her mouth," said M. Pelet, and he chuckled inwardly. "There is character about her mouth firmness but she has a very pleasant smile; don't you think so?" "Rather crafty." "True, but that expression of craft is owing to her eyebrows; have you remarked her eyebrows?" I answered that I had not. "You have not seen her looking down then?" said he. "No." "It is a treat, notwithstanding.
