He was troubled in soul, for Selma's accusation that he was visionary haunted him. Could it be that he was too scrupulous, too uncompromising, and lacked proper enterprise? Self-scrutiny failed to convince him that this was so, yet left a lurking doubt which was harassing.
Perhaps it is punishment enough to lose you." "He will get over that. It is enough for me," she exclaimed, ardently, after a dreamy pause, "that I am separated from him forever that I am free free free." A night's sleep served to intensify Selma's determination, and she awoke clearly of the opinion that a divorce was desirable.
He had placed himself between Pauline and her, and he showed himself, to Selma's thinking, one of the least dignified of the company. "My dear Mrs. Littleton," he said, with a counterfeit of great gravity, "you are now witnessing an impressive example of the politeness of true friendship.
Pauline proceeded to unfold this at the dinner-table that evening. She had heard in the meanwhile from her brother, the story of Selma's divorce and the explanation of his sudden marriage; and in consequence, she felt the more solicitous that her sister-in-law's new venture should begin propitiously.
