Each division is filled with a geometrical pattern of two panels, each panel ending in a trefoil, with a circular trefoil in the head of each division, and a crocketed gable, terminating in a rich finial above it. All the mouldings of this arcade are very delicate.
He had had his period of pleasure, and no doubt the change was desirable; but he sometimes thought with regret of the promise Arabella Trefoil had made him, that she would never interfere with his gratification. At Dillsborough everything during the summer after the Squire's marriage fell back into its usual routine.
He was almost tempted to quarrel with his brother-in-law, but at last he allowed the letter to be sent just as Sir George had written it, and then tried to banish the affair from his mind for the present so that he might enjoy his life till the next hostile step should be taken by the Trefoil clan.
To left, to right, along our lines was heard the thud, thud, of the ramrods, and percussion-cap boxes were slid around the waist to be handy. Penhallow and others drew their pistols. The cannon were now fully replaced, the regimental flags unrolled, and on the front line, long motionless, the trefoil guidons of the two divisions of the Second Corps fluttered feebly.
There was something I suppose in her riding, something in her audacity, something perhaps in her vivacity; but through it all I did not think that you were enjoying yourself. You may be sure of this, Lord Rufford, that when a woman is not specially liked by any other woman, she ought not to be specially liked by any man. I have never heard that Miss Trefoil had a female friend."
She hardly spoke to either of them; nor did they to her; while a certain amount of conversation in a low tone was carried on between Lady Ushant and Miss Trefoil. When Arabella came down to dinner she received a message from the sick man. He sent his love, and would so willingly have seen her instantly, only that the doctor would not allow it. But he was so glad, so very glad that she had come!
Her scant hair was now pure white, her dress seemed to have fallen away from her wasted neck, which was like a trefoil column. "Is that you, Janet? You hain't seen anything of your father?" The night before Janet had heard this question, and she had been puzzled as to its meaning whether in the course of the day she had seen her father, or whether Hannah thought he was coming home.
And there was a general silence, there being now a feeling among them that Arabella Trefoil was not to be talked about in the old way before Mounser Green. At last he spoke himself. "I suppose you haven't heard who is to go to Patagonia after all?" "Is it settled?" asked Currie. "Anybody we know?" asked Hoffmann. "I hope it's no d outsider," said the too energetic Glossop.
Others, again, have received their denomination from their forms, such as the Trefoil, because it is three-leaved; Pentaphylon, for having five leaves; Serpolet, because it creepeth along the ground; Helxine, Petast, Myrobalon, which the Arabians called Been, as if you would say an acorn, for it hath a kind of resemblance thereto, and withal is very oily.
Pakenham yesterday wore the trefoil pin with his aunt's hair, and the sleeve-buttons with his mother's and sister's hair; and I have added a locket to hang to his watch-chain, with a bit, very scarce, of my own hair. The wind is fair: we shall hear from him from Deal. To MRS. EDGEWORTH. May 7, 1831.
