She had never been tart with Thistlewood until that moment, but he manifested no surprise or emotion of any kind. 'It never has been answered, an' never will be till I see thee married, whether to me or another. When that day come to pass you've heard the last of my question. Thus the dogged John; and he being disposed of for a while, came Lane.
'Why, Bertha, he said, meekly and strickenly, 'wasn't I to come in six months' time and get an answer? 'Will you oblige me by coming for your answer in six months' time, answered Bertha. 'Good-afternoon, Mr. Protheroe. Bertha thought herself more cruel to herself than to him. She knew how infinitely more cruel she was to Thistlewood, but that was not a thing to be avoided.
Now, if Thistlewood had been a sane member of even an Anarchist organization, he might have been softened in his feelings towards the existing order of things by finding that a jury had actually recognized the possibility of his being formally charged with an offence against the Crown and yet not being guilty.
Pestler came upon his healing inquisition, she received the doctor with such a sarcastic and scornful demeanour, as made the surgeon declare that not Lady Thistlewood herself, whom he had the honour of attending professionally, could give herself greater airs than old Mrs. Sedley, from whom he never took a fee.
Whether the dark pool really showed Sir Marmaduke Thistlewood or not, at the moment that his son desired that his image should be called up, the good knight was, in effect, sitting nodding over the tankard of sack with which his supper was always concluded, while the rest of the family, lured out of the sunny hall by the charms of a fresh summer evening, had dispersed into the gardens or hall.

'Then it is very unfeeling and ungrateful of you.
'No no, returned the still invisible intruder. 'Wast humble enough about it, doubtless. You'm bound to tek a man's own word about his own feelings. Who is to know 'em if he doesn't? 'Just so, said Thistlewood, with great dryness. He appeared to be little if at all disturbed by the interruption, but Bertha was blushing like a peony.
Don't say anything now, but think about it. He raised his eyes, and fixed them upon her with a look of infinite tenderness and gratitude. It was Alma now who sighed, but not audibly. Before Thistlewood went north again, Harvey enjoyed long talks with him. Mary Abbott he saw only in the presence of other people.
