'Aye, by-gones are by-gones; the past is, indeed, immutable, and the future is equally fixed, and more dreadful. 'Come, Radie; a clever girl like you can make your own future. 'And what do you want of me now? she asked, with a fierce cold stare. 'But I did not say I wanted anything. 'Of course you do, or I should not have seen you.
So the young people sitting in the little drawing-room of Redman's farm pursued their dialogue; Rachel Lake had spoken last, and it was the captain's turn to speak next. 'Do you remember Miss Beauchamp, Radie? he asked rather suddenly, after a very long pause. 'Miss Beauchamp?
'I will keep it, Dorkie. It was kind of you, and their eyes met regretfully. 'And and, I think, I do trust you, Radie, said the heiress of Brandon; 'and I hope you will try to like me on till till spring comes, you know. And, I wish, she sighed softly, 'I wish we were as we used to be. I am not very happy; and here's the carriage.
How women do contrive to waste our time and patience over nonsense! How ingeniously perverse their whimsies are! I do believe Beelzebub employs them still, as he did in Eden, for the special plague of us, poor devils. Here's a lecture or an exhortation from Miss Radie, and a quantity of infinitely absurd advice, all which I am to read and inwardly digest, and discuss with her whenever she pleases.
Their walk continued silent for the greater part, neither was quite satisfied with the other. But Rachel at last said 'Stanley, you meditate some injury to Mark Wylder. 'I, Radie? he answered quietly, 'why on earth should you think so? 'I saw you twice watch him when you thought no one observed you and I know your face too well, Stanley, to mistake.
It was an irrevocable step, and I took it, not seeing all that has happened, it is true; but forewarned. And this I will say, Radie, if I had known the worst, I think even that would not have deterred me. It was madness it is madness, for I love him still. Rachel, though I know him and his wickedness, and am filled with horror I love him desperately.
'I think, Radie, we have both courage you have certainly; you have shown it, darling, and you must cease to blame yourself; I think you a heroine, Radie; but you know I see with the wild eyes of the Brandons. 'I am grateful, Dorcas, that you don't hate me. Most women I am sure would abhor me yes, Dorcas abhor me.
'This election frightens me, Radie everything frightens me now but this is so audacious. If there be powers either in heaven or hell, it seems like a defiance and an invocation. I am glad you are here, Radie I have grown so nervous so superstitious, I believe; watching always for signs and omens. Oh, darling, the world's ghastly for me now.
Shall I get some water from your room? 'No, Stanley; no, thank you. I'm very well now, she said, gently. 'Yes, I think so. I knew you'd be better. And he patted her shoulder with his soft hand; and then followed a short silence. 'I wish you were more pleasantly lodged, Radie; but we can speak of that another time. 'Yes you're right.
You mentioned Caroline Beauchamp, but I don't see how your visit here could have been connected with that plan. 'But don't you think, Radie, I should do well to marry, that is, assuming everything to be suitable? 'Well, perhaps, for yourself, Stanley; but 'Yes, of course, said Lake; 'but the unfortunate girl, you were going to say thank you.
