"Don't I always study like this?" replied Judith without looking up. "Go ahead as long as you like—only don't talk. I want to study." "Confound it, man, you don't mean to say that Jaggard opened the window?" cried Jen, starting from his seat with some show of temper. "Yes; I can see that. Uncle Jen, and it is for that reason I want to marry Isabella, and take her away before her mind is degraded further by that old fury.".
