And
in
a
leading
article
of
the
"
Trumpet
,
"
Keck
characterized
Ladislaw
’
s
speech
at
a
Reform
meeting
as
"
the
violence
of
an
energumen
—
a
miserable
effort
to
shroud
in
the
brilliancy
of
fireworks
the
daring
of
irresponsible
statements
and
the
poverty
of
a
knowledge
which
was
of
the
cheapest
and
most
recent
description
.
"
"
That
was
a
rattling
article
yesterday
,
Keck
,
"
said
Dr
.
Sprague
,
with
sarcastic
intentions
.
"
But
what
is
an
energumen
?
"
"
Oh
,
a
term
that
came
up
in
the
French
Revolution
,
"
said
Keck
.
This
dangerous
aspect
of
Ladislaw
was
strangely
contrasted
with
other
habits
which
became
matter
of
remark
.
He
had
a
fondness
,
half
artistic
,
half
affectionate
,
for
little
children
—
the
smaller
they
were
on
tolerably
active
legs
,
and
the
funnier
their
clothing
,
the
better
Will
liked
to
surprise
and
please
them
.
We
know
that
in
Rome
he
was
given
to
ramble
about
among
the
poor
people
,
and
the
taste
did
not
quit
him
in
Middlemarch
.
He
had
somehow
picked
up
a
troop
of
droll
children
,
little
hatless
boys
with
their
galligaskins
much
worn
and
scant
shirting
to
hang
out
,
little
girls
who
tossed
their
hair
out
of
their
eyes
to
look
at
him
,
and
guardian
brothers
at
the
mature
age
of
seven
.
This
troop
he
had
led
out
on
gypsy
excursions
to
Halsell
Wood
at
nutting
-
time
,
and
since
the
cold
weather
had
set
in
he
had
taken
them
on
a
clear
day
to
gather
sticks
for
a
bonfire
in
the
hollow
of
a
hillside
,
where
he
drew
out
a
small
feast
of
gingerbread
for
them
,
and
improvised
a
Punch
-
and
-
Judy
drama
with
some
private
home
-
made
puppets
.
Here
was
one
oddity
.
Another
was
,
that
in
houses
where
he
got
friendly
,
he
was
given
to
stretch
himself
at
full
length
on
the
rug
while
he
talked
,
and
was
apt
to
be
discovered
in
this
attitude
by
occasional
callers
for
whom
such
an
irregularity
was
likely
to
confirm
the
notions
of
his
dangerously
mixed
blood
and
general
laxity
.
But
Will
’
s
articles
and
speeches
naturally
recommended
him
in
families
which
the
new
strictness
of
party
division
had
marked
off
on
the
side
of
Reform
.
He
was
invited
to
Mr
.
Bulstrode
’
s
;
but
here
he
could
not
lie
down
on
the
rug
,
and
Mrs
.
Bulstrode
felt
that
his
mode
of
talking
about
Catholic
countries
,
as
if
there
were
any
truce
with
Antichrist
,
illustrated
the
usual
tendency
to
unsoundness
in
intellectual
men
.
At
Mr
.
Farebrother
’
s
,
however
,
whom
the
irony
of
events
had
brought
on
the
same
side
with
Bulstrode
in
the
national
movement
,
Will
became
a
favorite
with
the
ladies
;
especially
with
little
Miss
Noble
,
whom
it
was
one
of
his
oddities
to
escort
when
he
met
her
in
the
street
with
her
little
basket
,
giving
her
his
arm
in
the
eyes
of
the
town
,
and
insisting
on
going
with
her
to
pay
some
call
where
she
distributed
her
small
filchings
from
her
own
share
of
sweet
things
.
But
the
house
where
he
visited
oftenest
and
lay
most
on
the
rug
was
Lydgate
’
s
.
The
two
men
were
not
at
all
alike
,
but
they
agreed
none
the
worse
.
Lydgate
was
abrupt
but
not
irritable
,
taking
little
notice
of
megrims
in
healthy
people
;
and
Ladislaw
did
not
usually
throw
away
his
susceptibilities
on
those
who
took
no
notice
of
them
.
With
Rosamond
,
on
the
other
hand
,
he
pouted
and
was
wayward
—
nay
,
often
uncomplimentary
,
much
to
her
inward
surprise
;
nevertheless
he
was
gradually
becoming
necessary
to
her
entertainment
by
his
companionship
in
her
music
,
his
varied
talk
,
and
his
freedom
from
the
grave
preoccupation
which
,
with
all
her
husband
’
s
tenderness
and
indulgence
,
often
made
his
manners
unsatisfactory
to
her
,
and
confirmed
her
dislike
of
the
medical
profession
.
Lydgate
,
inclined
to
be
sarcastic
on
the
superstitious
faith
of
the
people
in
the
efficacy
of
"
the
bill
,
"
while
nobody
cared
about
the
low
state
of
pathology
,
sometimes
assailed
Will
with
troublesome
questions
.
One
evening
in
March
,
Rosamond
in
her
cherry
-
colored
dress
with
swansdown
trimming
about
the
throat
sat
at
the
tea
-
table
;
Lydgate
,
lately
come
in
tired
from
his
outdoor
work
,
was
seated
sideways
on
an
easy
-
chair
by
the
fire
with
one
leg
over
the
elbow
,
his
brow
looking
a
little
troubled
as
his
eyes
rambled
over
the
columns
of
the
"
Pioneer
,
"
while
Rosamond
,
having
noticed
that
he
was
perturbed
,
avoided
looking
at
him
,
and
inwardly
thanked
heaven
that
she
herself
had
not
a
moody
disposition
.
