She talked to them, nodding her head in the direction of the bridge. "I have promised to do a certain thing, and having promised, of course I must do it." Honoria looked away towards the harvesters up there among the gold of the corn. "And yet, now I have committed myself, thinking it over I find I dislike doing it warmly." "The statement of the case is just a trifle vague," Mr. Quayle remarked.
"A mature clergyman when she is rising forty a widowed bishop, for instance. Yes, I approve that," Mr. Quayle rejoined reflectively. "It is well conceived, Louisa. We must keep an eye on the Bench and carefully note any episcopal matrimonial vacancy. Bishops have a little turn, I observe, for marrying somebody who is somebody specially en secondes noces, good men. Yes, it is well thought of.
And again there came to Honoria that ache of longing for the but-half-disclosed glory and fulness of life. It was there, an actuality could she but find it, had she but the courage and the wit.
