But
,
had
it
been
the
beginning
of
some
great
labour
with
the
same
end
in
view
—
had
it
been
the
commencement
of
a
long
journey
,
to
be
performed
on
foot
in
that
inclement
season
of
the
year
,
to
be
pursued
under
very
privation
and
difficulty
,
and
to
be
achieved
only
with
great
distress
,
fatigue
,
and
suffering
—
had
it
been
the
dawn
of
some
painful
enterprise
,
certain
to
task
his
utmost
powers
of
resolution
and
endurance
,
and
to
need
his
utmost
fortitude
,
but
only
likely
to
end
,
if
happily
achieved
,
in
good
fortune
and
delight
to
Nell
—
Kit
’
s
cheerful
zeal
would
have
been
as
highly
roused
:
Kit
’
s
ardour
and
impatience
would
have
been
,
at
least
,
the
same
.
Nor
was
he
alone
excited
and
eager
.
Before
he
had
been
up
a
quarter
of
an
hour
the
whole
house
were
astir
and
busy
.
Everybody
hurried
to
do
something
towards
facilitating
the
preparations
.
The
single
gentleman
,
it
is
true
,
could
do
nothing
himself
,
but
he
overlooked
everybody
else
and
was
more
locomotive
than
anybody
.
The
work
of
packing
and
making
ready
went
briskly
on
,
and
by
daybreak
every
preparation
for
the
journey
was
completed
.
Then
Kit
began
to
wish
they
had
not
been
quite
so
nimble
;
for
the
travelling
-
carriage
which
had
been
hired
for
the
occasion
was
not
to
arrive
until
nine
o
’
clock
,
and
there
was
nothing
but
breakfast
to
fill
up
the
intervening
blank
of
one
hour
and
a
half
.
Yes
there
was
,
though
.
There
was
Barbara
.
Barbara
was
busy
,
to
be
sure
,
but
so
much
the
better
—
Kit
could
help
her
,
and
that
would
pass
away
the
time
better
than
any
means
that
could
be
devised
.
Barbara
had
no
objection
to
this
arrangement
,
and
Kit
,
tracking
out
the
idea
which
had
come
upon
him
so
suddenly
overnight
,
began
to
think
that
surely
Barbara
was
fond
of
him
,
and
surely
he
was
fond
of
Barbara
.
Now
,
Barbara
,
if
the
truth
must
be
told
—
as
it
must
and
ought
to
be
—
Barbara
seemed
,
of
all
the
little
household
,
to
take
least
pleasure
in
the
bustle
of
the
occasion
;
and
when
Kit
,
in
the
openness
of
his
heart
,
told
her
how
glad
and
overjoyed
it
made
him
,
Barbara
became
more
downcast
still
,
and
seemed
to
have
even
less
pleasure
in
it
than
before
!
‘
You
have
not
been
home
so
long
,
Christopher
,
’
said
Barbara
—
and
it
is
impossible
to
tell
how
carelessly
she
said
it
—
‘
You
have
not
been
home
so
long
,
that
you
need
to
be
glad
to
go
away
again
,
I
should
think
.
’
‘
But
for
such
a
purpose
,
’
returned
Kit
.
‘
To
bring
back
Miss
Nell
!
To
see
her
again
!
Only
think
of
that
!
I
am
so
pleased
too
,
to
think
that
you
will
see
her
,
Barbara
,
at
last
.
’
Barbara
did
not
absolutely
say
that
she
felt
no
gratification
on
this
point
,
but
she
expressed
the
sentiment
so
plainly
by
one
little
toss
of
her
head
,
that
Kit
was
quite
disconcerted
,
and
wondered
,
in
his
simplicity
,
why
she
was
so
cool
about
it
.
‘
You
’
ll
say
she
has
the
sweetest
and
beautifullest
face
you
ever
saw
,
I
know
,
’
said
Kit
,
rubbing
his
hands
.
‘
I
’
m
sure
you
’
ll
say
that
.
’
Barbara
tossed
her
head
again
.
