Including, among those present, the members of his own home circle, his entire audience numbered no more than ten persons altogether.
She was a lost soul wandering on those desolate hills, the gloom descending, and Brighton and Southwick and Shoreham and Worthing gleaming along the sea banks of a purple sea. There were phantoms there were two phantoms. One turned to reality, and she walked by her lover's side, talking of Italy.
Brookes was told that Frank would stay at Southwick a few days longer, so that he might arrange about a studio. The news was not at first wholly pleasing to the old gentleman, but he remembered the anecdotes he should hear concerning his favourite painters, and was consoled. The evening passed away in the security and calm of habit, sweetened by the intimacy of familiar thoughts and customs.
"Yes, and a great deal more, too; but this down land isn't worth much not more than about ten shillings an acre." "And how many acres are there?" "Do you mean all that we can see?" "Yes."

I suppose you don't know that all this piece, all that lies between us and that barn yonder, once belonged to my family."
Stewart had been adjutant of the Cameron Highlanders during the Crimean War, and was then considered to be the smartest officer in the regiment.

"From what you tell me it is clear that Sally must not remain in Southwick a day longer than can be helped. I will take her with me to Woburn; and I think she had better go abroad as soon as we can hear of some one in whose charge we can place her.

Before leaving Harding he mentioned that she attributed her lapses from virtue, not to passionate temperament, but to charitable impulses. "She wouldn't kiss " and Owen whispered the man's name, "until he promised to give two thousand pounds to a Home for Girl Mothers." "Now, my dear Lady Southwick, I'm so delighted to see you here. But how very sad! The greatest singer of our time."
If Maggie had been Helen and Southwick Troy, he would not be kept waiting; the dogs had to be taken out; Willy came to fetch Maggie; hands were tendered, lips said good-bye, and, with a sense of parting, they parted. Feeling adrift and strangely alone, he walked to his lodging.
