'
Louisa
,
I
have
not
considered
it
essential
to
ask
you
one
question
,
because
the
possibility
implied
in
it
appeared
to
me
to
be
too
remote
.
But
perhaps
I
ought
to
do
so
.
You
have
never
entertained
in
secret
any
other
proposal
?
'
'
Father
,
'
she
returned
,
almost
scornfully
,
'
what
other
proposal
can
have
been
made
to
me
?
Whom
have
I
seen
?
Where
have
I
been
?
What
are
my
heart
's
experiences
?
'
'
My
dear
Louisa
,
'
returned
Mr.
Gradgrind
,
reassured
and
satisfied
.
'
You
correct
me
justly
.
I
merely
wished
to
discharge
my
duty
.
'
'
What
do
I
know
,
father
,
'
said
Louisa
in
her
quiet
manner
,
'
of
tastes
and
fancies
;
of
aspirations
and
affections
;
of
all
that
part
of
my
nature
in
which
such
light
things
might
have
been
nourished
?
What
escape
have
I
had
from
problems
that
could
be
demonstrated
,
and
realities
that
could
be
grasped
?
'
As
she
said
it
,
she
unconsciously
closed
her
hand
,
as
if
upon
a
solid
object
,
and
slowly
opened
it
as
though
she
were
releasing
dust
or
ash
.
'
My
dear
,
'
assented
her
eminently
practical
parent
,
'
quite
true
,
quite
true
.
'
'
Why
,
father
,
'
she
pursued
,
'
what
a
strange
question
to
ask
me
!
The
baby-preference
that
even
I
have
heard
of
as
common
among
children
,
has
never
had
its
innocent
resting-place
in
my
breast
.
You
have
been
so
careful
of
me
,
that
I
never
had
a
child
's
heart
.
You
have
trained
me
so
well
,
that
I
never
dreamed
a
child
's
dream
.
You
have
dealt
so
wisely
with
me
,
father
,
from
my
cradle
to
this
hour
,
that
I
never
had
a
child
's
belief
or
a
child
's
fear
.
'
Mr.
Gradgrind
was
quite
moved
by
his
success
,
and
by
this
testimony
to
it
.
'
My
dear
Louisa
,
'
said
he
,
'
you
abundantly
repay
my
care
.
Kiss
me
,
my
dear
girl
.
'
So
,
his
daughter
kissed
him
.
Detaining
her
in
his
embrace
,
he
said
,
'
I
may
assure
you
now
,
my
favourite
child
,
that
I
am
made
happy
by
the
sound
decision
at
which
you
have
arrived
.
Mr.
Bounderby
is
a
very
remarkable
man
;
and
what
little
disparity
can
be
said
to
exist
between
you
--
if
any
--
is
more
than
counterbalanced
by
the
tone
your
mind
has
acquired
.
It
has
always
been
my
object
so
to
educate
you
,
as
that
you
might
,
while
still
in
your
early
youth
,
be
(
if
I
may
so
express
myself
)
almost
any
age
.
Kiss
me
once
more
,
Louisa
.
Now
,
let
us
go
and
find
your
mother
.
'
Accordingly
,
they
went
down
to
the
drawing-room
,
where
the
esteemed
lady
with
no
nonsense
about
her
,
was
recumbent
as
usual
,
while
Sissy
worked
beside
her
.
She
gave
some
feeble
signs
of
returning
animation
when
they
entered
,
and
presently
the
faint
transparency
was
presented
in
a
sitting
attitude
.
