People have been hanged on no clearer
circumstantialevidence.
Though always, at first, with a chill ofchange and
a sense of loss.
She would take excellent care thathe should never
suspect it. Nor can it be denied that Cousin Beulahs nose is long ANDdrooping. She
couldnt help feelinga little disappointed. Theother was that she was going to lose
Deans friendship.
Cousin Jimmy just nodded andchuckled again. In
which conclusion Emily was horribly unjust to Teddy. I suppose the truth is that my
mind is beginning tomature a bit and Im catching up with him.
But in one way it worked out to her
advantage.
He was not a member of the church,was
he?
Leagues of rippling gulf beyond the
silver-and-lilac sand-dunes.
Oh,was she as right about everything
else?
Nothing there now, he said, but rollicking,
soullessyoung nonentities. But I dontknow what Id do without Deans
friendship.
Carpenters house, through the dark, beautifulspring
night. She would never make asuitable ministers wife.
Still one cant be altogethergloomy in spring. I had
a white night last night after fourrejections of MSS.
IVBut she had hours of rapture and insight that
shed a glory backwardand forward.
There are only Aunt Louisa and Aunt Elizabeth, said
Emily, unableto repress a smile. He was not a member of the church,was
he?
I suppose the truth is that my mind is beginning
tomature a bit and Im catching up with him. Emily in herinexperience did not know
this. Aunt Elizabeth never quite approved of Dean.
For a long time Emily had refused to believe that
it WAS Mr. Carpenter essayed a wink but couldnot compass it. No girl with Dean
Priest for a friend couldbe altogether lonely. Thats the chief use of a diary, I
believe.
Hesent it back, pointing out some faults and asking
me to rewrite it.
Cousin Jimmy just nodded andchuckled again. The
school children went in aweof his biting tongue and his more frequent spurts of
temper. It seemed many years since she had left New Moonin the darkness. There was
no reference ineither letter to rainbow gold or Vega of the Lyre. Was she
reallyincapable of inspiring a deep and lasting passion in a man?
Butits foolish to carry childish dreams over into
maturity.
Carpenter after the secondexchange of winks. But I
was only one of others on the cover.
She thought Emilywould be a very lucky girl if she
could get him.
