But what, however, made the deepest impression on Petrea, was the conduct of her partner, and his suddenly altered behaviour.
Petrea, in whose disposition it lay to impart to others whatever she herself possessed sometimes overlooking the trifling fact that what she possessed was very little desired by others and feeling herself now in possession of a considerable degree of prowess, wished to impart some of the same to her companion in misfortune, and seated herself by her for that purpose.
"Petrea. "P. S. My nose makes its compliments to Gabriele, and goes in the accompanying picture to pay her a visit. She must not imagine that I am cast down. I send also a little ballad or romance; the wood sung it to me last evening, and every harmonious sound, which life in my soul sings, must go home! Oh, how I love you all!"
All gathered around the bowl Louise with the rest the eight following her it was all a joyful bustle. Leonore and Petrea kept back the little tumultuous ones amid laughter, and promised to carry the glasses to them if they would only keep their places. At length quiet returned to the assembly, the glasses were filled, and the skål began.
She endeavoured to induce her new acquaintance to give her her parole d'honneur that she would sometime conduct a social theatre with her, which would assist greatly to make social life more interesting; and further than that, that they should establish together a society of Sisters of Charity in Sweden, and make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem; furthermore, that they would write novels together; and that on the following day, or more properly in the night, they would rise at half-past two o'clock, and climb to the top of a high mountain in order to see the sun rise; and finally, after all these, and sundry other propositions, Petrea suggested to her new acquaintance a thee-and-thou friendship between them!

"And if it rain pokers," interrupted Petrea, warmly, "I must go.
"What should I say?" answered Petrea, with a violent gush of tears: "ah, I should say nothing at all, but should lie down and die of grief!" "Do you really love me then so, Petrea?" asked she. "Do I love you!" returned Petrea; "ah, Sara, if you go away, take me with you as maid, as servant I will do everything for you!"
With a torrent of tears, Petrea ran out of the room; Sara followed her silently; Eva threw herself caressingly on her mother's neck; but Louise said: "I have only spoken the truth to Sara. It is not my fault if it be unpleasant for her to hear it." "Ah, Louise!" returned her mother, "this is constantly said in the world, and yet so much division and hatred prevail between those who say it.
"Father! father!" he screamed, as Arthur came in, "He can see just as good as if he wasn't blind!" and he looked with childish curiosity into the eyes which had discovered in his infantile features more than one trace of the Swedish Petrea, grandmother to the boy. Arthur smiled and without replying to his son, said to Richard, "I have come now to take you to Edith.
But if they turn out to be what they appear, then she shall never feel any hunger as long as I live and can procure bread for my family. You know my friend, the excellent Bishop B : perhaps we can at first confide our Petrea to his guidance. After a few years we shall see; she is still only a child.
