But Ephraim had been privately accused of amative emotions. Offended with his mother, mortified he knew not why, uncertain of his own feeling, as scholars are apt to be, he had no wish then but to retire. "I am too busy, Susianne." "Then I will go alone; I will go for a long, long walk by myself." She gave her foot a defiant stamp upon the floor.
Susannah, vexed at his indifference, but fearing that he would retract his unexpected permission, was again in the draught of the open door. "Perhaps I will walk away, away into the woods and never come back; what then?" "Indians," suggested he, "or starvation, or perhaps wolves, Susianne." "But I love you for not forbidding me to go, cousin Ephraim."
Her name was Susannah, but she herself gave it the softer form that she had been accustomed to hear; when she first entered the sitting-room of the grave Croom family trio, like a sunbeam striking suddenly through the clouds on a dark day, she held out her hand and her lips to each in turn, saying, "I am Susianne." That first time Ephraim kissed her.
