As my name was Pierston she called upon me with her son, and so Avice and he got acquainted. When Avice went back to Sandbourne to the finishing school they kept up the acquaintance in secret. He taught French somewhere there, and does still, I believe. 'Well, I hope she'll forget en. He idden good enough. 'I hope so I hope so.... Now I'll try to get a little nap.
"Please tell me her address, Mrs Durbeyfield, in kindness to a lonely wretched man!" Tess's mother again restlessly swept her cheek with her vertical hand, and seeing that he suffered, she at last said, is a low voice "She is at Sandbourne." "Ah where there? Sandbourne has become a large place, they say." "I don't know more particularly than I have said Sandbourne. For myself, I was never there."
Ethelberta opened a letter from Picotee now at Sandbourne again; and, stooping to the fire-light, she began to read: 'MY DEAR ETHELBERTA, I have tried to like staying at Sandbourne because you wished it, but I can't endure the town at all, dear Berta; everything is so wretched and dull! O, I only wish you knew how dismal it is here, and how much I would give to come to London!
During the wet autumn of the same year, the postman passed one morning as usual into a plain street that ran through the less fashionable portion of Sandbourne, a modern coast town and watering-place not many miles from the ancient Anglebury.

'And then when I went downstairs he mistook me for you for a moment, and that caused a confusion! 'O, well, it does not much matter, said Ethelberta, kissing Picotee soothingly.
I thought I was far gone when I used to count the days between my visits to Sandbourne; I am a good deal worse now that you have let me be a sort of chum! Life without you is something I don't care to face, I don't indeed! Why don't you make up your mind to take me for better for worse? I'll try to be all better; just think how happy we might be!
