But," continued my father, more gravely, "when some one sorrow, that is yet reparable, gets hold of your mind like a monomania; when you think because Heaven has denied you this or that on which you had set your heart that all your life must be a blank, oh! then diet yourself well on biography, the biography of good and great men. See how little a space one sorrow really makes in life.
Philippe, who was gifted with a keen comprehension in such directions, listened with much more interest to this part of Desroches's lecture than to what had gone before. "Under these circumstances," continued the lawyer, "you can repair the injury you have done to your estimable family, so far at least as it is reparable; for you cannot restore life to the poor mother you have all but killed.
