When
he
had
parted
from
her
before
,
he
had
been
in
ignorance
of
facts
which
gave
a
new
aspect
to
the
relation
between
them
,
and
made
a
more
absolute
severance
than
he
had
then
believed
in
.
He
knew
nothing
of
Dorothea
’
s
private
fortune
,
and
being
little
used
to
reflect
on
such
matters
,
took
it
for
granted
that
according
to
Mr
.
Casaubon
’
s
arrangement
marriage
to
him
,
Will
Ladislaw
,
would
mean
that
she
consented
to
be
penniless
.
That
was
not
what
he
could
wish
for
even
in
his
secret
heart
,
or
even
if
she
had
been
ready
to
meet
such
hard
contrast
for
his
sake
.
And
then
,
too
,
there
was
the
fresh
smart
of
that
disclosure
about
his
mother
’
s
family
,
which
if
known
would
be
an
added
reason
why
Dorothea
’
s
friends
should
look
down
upon
him
as
utterly
below
her
.
The
secret
hope
that
after
some
years
he
might
come
back
with
the
sense
that
he
had
at
least
a
personal
value
equal
to
her
wealth
,
seemed
now
the
dreamy
continuation
of
a
dream
.
This
change
would
surely
justify
him
in
asking
Dorothea
to
receive
him
once
more
.
But
Dorothea
on
that
morning
was
not
at
home
to
receive
Will
’
s
note
.
In
consequence
of
a
letter
from
her
uncle
announcing
his
intention
to
be
at
home
in
a
week
,
she
had
driven
first
to
Freshitt
to
carry
the
news
,
meaning
to
go
on
to
the
Grange
to
deliver
some
orders
with
which
her
uncle
had
intrusted
her
—
thinking
,
as
he
said
,
"
a
little
mental
occupation
of
this
sort
good
for
a
widow
.
"
If
Will
Ladislaw
could
have
overheard
some
of
the
talk
at
Freshitt
that
morning
,
he
would
have
felt
all
his
suppositions
confirmed
as
to
the
readiness
of
certain
people
to
sneer
at
his
lingering
in
the
neighborhood
.
Sir
James
,
indeed
,
though
much
relieved
concerning
Dorothea
,
had
been
on
the
watch
to
learn
Ladislaw
’
s
movements
,
and
had
an
instructed
informant
in
Mr
.
Standish
,
who
was
necessarily
in
his
confidence
on
this
matter
.
That
Ladislaw
had
stayed
in
Middlemarch
nearly
two
months
after
he
had
declared
that
he
was
going
immediately
,
was
a
fact
to
embitter
Sir
James
’
s
suspicions
,
or
at
least
to
justify
his
aversion
to
a
"
young
fellow
"
whom
he
represented
to
himself
as
slight
,
volatile
,
and
likely
enough
to
show
such
recklessness
as
naturally
went
along
with
a
position
unriveted
by
family
ties
or
a
strict
profession
.
But
he
had
just
heard
something
from
Standish
which
,
while
it
justified
these
surmises
about
Will
,
offered
a
means
of
nullifying
all
danger
with
regard
to
Dorothea
.
Unwonted
circumstances
may
make
us
all
rather
unlike
ourselves
:
there
are
conditions
under
which
the
most
majestic
person
is
obliged
to
sneeze
,
and
our
emotions
are
liable
to
be
acted
on
in
the
same
incongruous
manner
.
Good
Sir
James
was
this
morning
so
far
unlike
himself
that
he
was
irritably
anxious
to
say
something
to
Dorothea
on
a
subject
which
he
usually
avoided
as
if
it
had
been
a
matter
of
shame
to
them
both
.
He
could
not
use
Celia
as
a
medium
,
because
he
did
not
choose
that
she
should
know
the
kind
of
gossip
he
had
in
his
mind
;
and
before
Dorothea
happened
to
arrive
he
had
been
trying
to
imagine
how
,
with
his
shyness
and
unready
tongue
,
he
could
ever
manage
to
introduce
his
communication
.
Her
unexpected
presence
brought
him
to
utter
hopelessness
in
his
own
power
of
saying
anything
unpleasant
;
but
desperation
suggested
a
resource
;
he
sent
the
groom
on
an
unsaddled
horse
across
the
park
with
a
pencilled
note
to
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
,
who
already
knew
the
gossip
,
and
would
think
it
no
compromise
of
herself
to
repeat
it
as
often
as
required
.
Dorothea
was
detained
on
the
good
pretext
that
Mr
.
Garth
,
whom
she
wanted
to
see
,
was
expected
at
the
hall
within
the
hour
,
and
she
was
still
talking
to
Caleb
on
the
gravel
when
Sir
James
,
on
the
watch
for
the
rector
’
s
wife
,
saw
her
coming
and
met
her
with
the
needful
hints
.
"
Enough
!
I
understand
,
"
—
said
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
.
"
You
shall
be
innocent
.
I
am
such
a
blackamoor
that
I
cannot
smirch
myself
.
"
"
I
don
’
t
mean
that
it
’
s
of
any
consequence
,
"
said
Sir
James
,
disliking
that
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
should
understand
too
much
.
"
Only
it
is
desirable
that
Dorothea
should
know
there
are
reasons
why
she
should
not
receive
him
again
;
and
I
really
can
’
t
say
so
to
her
.
It
will
come
lightly
from
you
.
"
It
came
very
lightly
indeed
.
When
Dorothea
quitted
Caleb
and
turned
to
meet
them
,
it
appeared
that
Mrs
.
