Lexicon�察�digging down for roots of words�察�and quoting passages of
obscure Greek poets at such a rate�察�that if my eyes had been shut I
could have thought them two withered old students in spectacles and
snuff´coloured coats。'
'Philip was in his element。' said Mrs。 Edmonstone�察�smiling。
'Really��' proceeded Guy�察�with animation�察�'the more I hear and see of
Philip�察�the more I wonder。 What a choice collection of books he has
so many of them school prizes�察�and how beautifully bound��'
'Ah� �that is one of Philip's peculiar ways。 With all his prudence and
his love of books�察�I believe he would not buy one unless he had a
reasonable prospect of being able to dress it handsomely。 Did you see
the print��'
'Yes that I did。 What glorious loveliness� �There is nothing that does
it justice but the description in the lecture。 Oh I forgot�察�you have
not heard it。 You must let me read it to you by and by。 Those two
little angels�察�what faces they have。 Perfect innocenceone full of
reasoning�察�the other of unreasoning adoration��'
'I see it��' suddenly exclaimed Mrs。 Edmonstone�察�'I see what you are
like in one of your looks�察�not by any means�察�in allit is to the
larger of those two angels。'
'Very seldom�察�I should guess��' said Guy�察�and sinking his voice�察�as if
he was communicating a most painful fact�察�he added�察�'My real likeness
is old Sir Hugh's portrait at home。 But what were we saying�拭 �Oh� �
about Philip。 How nice those stories were of Mrs。 Deane's。'
'She is very fond of him。'
'To have won so much esteem and admiration�察�already from strangers�察�
with no prejudice in his favour。It must be entirely his own doing�察�
and well it may� �Every time one hears of him�察�something comes out to
make him seem more admirable。 You are laughing at me�察�and I own it is
presumptuous to praise�察�but I did not mean to praise�察�only to admire。'
'I like very much to hear my nephew praised�察�I was only smiling at your
enthusiastic way。'
'I only wonder I am not more enthusiastic��' said Guy。 'I suppose it is
his plain good sense that drives away that sort of feeling�察�for he is
as near heroism in the way of self´sacrifice as a man can be in these
days。'
'Poor Philip� �if disappointment can make a hero�察�it has fallen to his
share。 Ah� �Guy�察�you are brightening and looking like one of my young
ladies in hopes of a tale of true love crossed�察�but it was only love of
a sister。'
'The sister for whom he gave up so much��'
'Yes�察�his sister Margaret。 She was eight or nine years older�察�very
handsome�察�very clever�察�a good deal like hima pattern elder sister�察�
indeed�察�she brought him up in great part after his mother died�察�and he
was devoted to her。 I do believe it made the sacrifice of his
prospects quite easy to him�察�to know it was for her sake�察�that she
would live on at Stylehurst�察�and the change be softened to her。 Then
came Fanny's illness�察�and that lead to the marriage with Dr。 Henley。
It was just what no one could object to�察�he is a respectable man in
full practice�察�with a large income�察�but he is much older than she is�察�
not her equal in mind or cultivation�察�and though I hardly like to say
so�察�not at all a religious man。 At any rate�察�Margaret Morville was one
of the last people one could bear to see marry for the sake of an
establishment。'
'Could her brother do nothing��'
'He expostulated with all his might�察�but at nineteen he could do little
with a determined sister of twenty´seven�察�and the very truth and power
of his remonstrance must have made it leave a sting。 Poor fellow�察�I
believe he suffered terriblyjust as he had lost Fanny�察�too�察�which he
felt very deeply�察�for she was a very sweet creature�察�and he was very
fond of her。 It was like losing both sisters and home at once。'
'Has he not just been staying with Mrs。 Henley��'
'Yes。 There was never any coolness�察�as people call it。 He is the one
thing she loves and is proud of。 They always correspond�察�and he often
stays with her�察�but he owns to disliking the Doctor�察�and I don't think
he has much comfort in Margaret herself�察�for he always comes back more
grave and stern than he went。 Her house�察�with all her good wishes�察�can
be no home to him�察�and so we try to make Hollywell supply the place of
Stylehurst as well as we can。'
'How glad he must be to have you to comfort him��'
'Philip�拭 �Oh no。 He was always reserved�察�open to no one but Margaret�察�
not even to his father�察�and since her marriage he has shut himself up
within himself more than ever。 It has�察�at least I think it is this
that has given him a severity�察�an unwillingness to trust�察�which I
believe is often the consequence of a great disappointment either in
love or in friendship。'
'Thank you for telling me��' said Guy�此�'I shall understand him better�察�
and look up to him more。 Oh� �it is a cruel thing to find that what one
loves is�察�or has not been�察�all one thought。 What must he not have gone
through��'
Mrs。 Edmonstone was well pleased to have given so much assistance to
Guy's sincere desire to become attached to his cousin�察�one of the most
favourable signs in the character that was winning so much upon her。

A cloud was o'er my childhood's dream��
I sat in solitude��
I know not howI know not why��
But round my soul all drearily
There was a silent shroud。
THOUGHTS IN PAST YEARS
Mrs。 Edmonstone was anxious to hear Mr。 Lascelle's opinion of his
pupil�察�and in time she learnt that he thought Sir Guy had very good
abilities�察�and a fair amount of general information�察�but that his
classical knowledge was far from accurate�察�and mathematics had been
greatly neglected。 He had been encouraged to think his work done when
he had gathered the general meaning of a passage�察�or translated it into
English verse�察�spirited and flowing�察�but often further from the
original than he or his tutor could perceive。 He had never been taught
to work�察�at least as other boys study�察�and great application would be
requisite to bring his attainments to a level with those of far less
clever boys educated at a public school。
Mr。 Lascelles told him so at first�察�but as there were no reflections on
his grandfather�察�or on Mr。 Potts�察�Guy's lip did not suffer�察�and he only
asked how many hours a day he ought to read。 'Three��' said Mr。
Lascelles�察�with a due regard to a probable want of habits of
application�察�but then�察�remembering how much was undone�察�he added�察�that
'it ought to be four or more�察�if possible。'
'Four it _shall_ be��' said Guy�察�'five if I can。'
His whole strength of will was set to accomplish these four hours�察�
taking them before and after breakfast�察�working hard all the morning
till the last hour before luncheon�察�when he came to read the lectures
on poetry with Charles。 Here�察�for the first time�察�it appeared that
Charles had so entirely ceased to consider him as company�察�as to
domineer over him like his own family。
Used as Guy had been to an active out´of´doors life�察�and now turned
back to authors he had read long ago�察�to fight his way through the
construction of their language�察�not excusing himself one jot of the
difficulty�察�nor turning aside from one mountain over which his own
efforts could carry him�察�he found his work as tough and tedious as he
could wish or fear�察�and by the end of the morning was thoroughly
fagged。 Then would have been the refreshing time for recreation in
that pleasant idling´place�察�the Hollywell drawing´room。 Any other time
of day would have suited Charles as well for the reading�察�but he liked
to take the hour at noon�察�and never perceived that this made all the
difference to his friend of a toil or a pleasure。 Now and then Guy
gave tremendous yawns�察�and once when Charles told him he was very
stupid�察�proposed a different time�察�but as Charles objected�察�he yielded
as submissively as the rest of the household were accustomed to do。
To watch Guy was one of Charles's chief amusements�察�and he rejoiced
greatly in the prospect of hearing his history of his first dinner´
party。 Mr。�察�Mrs。 and Miss Edmonstone�察�and Sir Guy Morville�察�were
invited to dine with Mr。 and Mrs。 Brownlow。 Mr。 Edmonstone was
delighted as usual with any opportunity of seeing his neighbours�察�Guy
looked as if he did not know whether he liked the notion or not�察�Laura
told him it would be very absurd and stupid�察�but there would be some
good music�察�and Charles ordered her to say no more�察�that he might have
the account�察�the next morning�察�from a fresh and unprejudiced mind。
The next morning's question was�察�of course�察�'How did you like your
party��'
'O�察�it was great fun。' Guy's favourite answer was caught up in the
midst�察�as Laura replied�察�'It was just what parties always are。'
'Come�察�let us have the history。 Who handed who in to
