Raymount was not a money-lover in any notable sense the men are rare indeed of whom it might be said absolutely they do not love money his delight in having land of his own was almost beyond utterance.
Parents with no reasonable ground for believing their children good, nay with considerable ground for believing them worse than many, are yet seized as by the awfully incredible when they hear they are going wrong. Helen Raymount concluded her boy had turned into bad ways because left in London, although she knew he had never taken to good ways while they were all with him.
He was her nearest relation, but had never had much hope of inheriting from her, and after a final quarrel put an end to their quarelling, had had none. Even for Mammon's sake Mr. Raymount was not the man to hide or mask his opinions. He worshipped his opinions indeed as most men do Mammon. For many years in consequence there had not been the slightest communication between the cousins.
Raymount that he had no end of business to look after; but now he knew the way to Yrndale, he might be back any day. As soon as Mark was well enough to be handed over to a male nurse he would come directly. He told Mrs. Raymount that he had got some pearls for her he knew she was fond of pearls and was going to fetch them.
In his wife's room Gerald Raymount sat on into the dead waste and middle of the night. At last, as his wife continued quietly asleep, he thought he would go down to his study, and find something to turn his thoughts from his misery. None such had come to him as to his friend.
Miss Dasomma's conclusion was, that Vavasor was a man of good instincts as perhaps who is not? but without moral development, pleased with himself, and not undesirous of pleasing others consistently with his idea of dignity at present more than moderately desirous of pleasing Hester Raymount, therefore showing to the best possible advantage.
"Because we have chosen what is bad, and do not know how ugly it is that is why," answered her father. "Isn't that rather hard on the fish, though?" said Vavasor. "How can innocent creatures be an embodiment of evil?" "But what do you mean by innocent?" returned Mr. Raymount. "The nature of an animal may be low and even hateful, and its looks correspondent, while no conscience accuses it of evil.
For her behavior made him feel a large person with power over her, in which power she seemed pleased to find herself. After a conversation of about half an hour, she rose. "What!" said Corney, "you're not going already, Amy?" "Yes, sir," replied Amy, "I think I had better go. I am so sorry not to see Miss Raymount! She was very kind to me!" "You mustn't go yet," said Corney.
So one evening as he stood by her piano, he said all at once: "By the bye, Miss Raymount, last night, as I was turning over some songs I wrote many years ago, I came upon one I thought I should like you just to look at not the music that is worth nothing, though I was proud enough of it then and thought it an achievement; but the words I still think are not so bad considering.
Gerald Raymount closed the door on his son and his son's wife, and hastened to his own to tell her all. "Then surely will the forgiveness of God and his father take away Corney's disgrace!" said the mother. The arrival of this state of things was much favoured by the severe illness into which Amy fell immediately the strain was off her. She was brought almost to death's door.
