Didn't you get along all right?" she asked breathlessly.,"I am afraid that would have been impossible, major," said Etwald, rising. "You were so distracted over the death of Maurice, and so unjust in your hatred of me, that it would have been dangerous to trust you.","I'm a horrid pig to forget," she whispered contritely. "Don't be cross, Frad dear; you know how sorry I am."，“Thank you, Father.”，"I have to leave in just five minutes," said Elinor, glancing at the big illuminated clock face.

She has no desire to converse with him, and is just congratulating herself upon her good fortune in that he declines to speak with her, when he breaks the welcome silence.,But Jen, good, simple soul, was rather taken with Etwald's mysticism, and, moreover, pitied his loneliness.
