Just
such
a
latent
animation
glowed
in
Anna
Leath
.
In
every
nerve
and
vein
she
was
conscious
of
that
equipoise
of
bliss
which
the
fearful
human
heart
scarce
dares
acknowledge
.
She
was
not
used
to
strong
or
full
emotions
;
but
she
had
always
known
that
she
should
not
be
afraid
of
them
.
422
She
was
not
afraid
now
;
but
she
felt
a
deep
inward
stillness
.
423
The
immediate
effect
of
the
feeling
had
been
to
send
her
forth
in
quest
of
her
step
-
son
.
She
wanted
to
stroll
back
with
him
and
have
a
quiet
talk
before
they
re
-
entered
the
house
.
It
was
always
easy
to
talk
to
him
,
and
at
this
moment
he
was
the
one
person
to
whom
she
could
have
spoken
without
fear
of
disturbing
her
inner
stillness
.
She
was
glad
,
for
all
sorts
of
reasons
,
that
Madame
de
Chantelle
and
Effie
were
still
at
Ouchy
with
the
governess
,
and
that
she
and
Owen
had
the
house
to
themselves
.
And
she
was
glad
that
even
he
was
not
yet
in
sight
.
She
wanted
to
be
alone
a
little
longer
;
not
to
think
,
but
to
let
the
long
slow
waves
of
joy
break
over
her
one
by
one
.

She
walked
out
of
the
court
and
sat
down
on
one
of
the
benches
that
bordered
the
drive
.
From
her
seat
she
had
a
diagonal
view
of
the
long
house
-
front
and
of
the
domed
chapel
terminating
one
of
the
wings
.
Beyond
a
gate
in
the
court
-
yard
wall
the
flower
-
garden
drew
its
dark
-
green
squares
and
raised
its
statues
against
the
yellowing
background
of
the
park
.
In
the
borders
only
a
few
late
pinks
and
crimsons
smouldered
,
but
a
peacock
strutting
in
the
sun
seemed
to
have
gathered
into
his
out
-
spread
fan
all
the
summer
glories
of
the
place
.
425
In
Mrs
.
Leath
s
hand
was
the
letter
which
had
opened
her
eyes
to
these
things
,
and
a
smile
rose
to
her
lips
at
the
mere
feeling
of
the
paper
between
her
fingers
.
The
thrill
it
sent
through
her
gave
a
keener
edge
to
every
sense
.
She
felt
,
saw
,
breathed
the
shining
world
as
though
a
thin
impenetrable
veil
had
suddenly
been
removed
from
it
.
426
Just
such
a
veil
,
she
now
perceived
,
had
always
hung
between
herself
and
life
.
It
had
been
like
the
stage
gauze
which
gives
an
illusive
air
of
reality
to
the
painted
scene
behind
it
,
yet
proves
it
,
after
all
,
to
be
no
more
than
a
painted
scene
.
427
She
had
been
hardly
aware
,
in
her
girlhood
,
of
differing
from
others
in
this
respect
.
In
the
well
-
regulated
well
-
fed
Summers
world
the
unusual
was
regarded
as
either
immoral
or
ill
-
bred
,
and
people
with
emotions
were
not
visited
.
Sometimes
,
with
a
sense
of
groping
in
a
topsy
-
turvy
universe
,
Anna
had
wondered
why
everybody
about
her
seemed
to
ignore
all
the
passions
and
sensations
which
formed
the
stuff
of
great
poetry
and
memorable
action
.
In
a
community
composed
entirely
of
people
like
her
parents
and
her
parents
friends
she
did
not
see
how
the
magnificent
things
one
read
about
could
ever
have
happened
.
She
was
sure
that
if
anything
of
the
kind
had
occurred
in
her
immediate
circle
her
mother
would
have
consulted
the
family
clergyman
,
and
her
father
perhaps
even
have
rung
up
the
police
;
and
her
sense
of
humour
compelled
her
to
own
that
,
in
the
given
conditions
,
these
precautions
might
not
have
been
unjustified
.

Little
by
little
the
conditions
conquered
her
,
and
she
learned
to
regard
the
substance
of
life
as
a
mere
canvas
for
the
embroideries
of
poet
and
painter
,
and
its
little
swept
and
fenced
and
tended
surface
as
its
actual
substance
.
429
It
was
in
the
visioned
region
of
action
and
emotion
that
her
fullest
hours
were
spent
;
but
it
hardly
occurred
to
her
that
they
might
be
translated
into
experience
,
or
connected
with
anything
likely
to
happen
to
a
young
lady
living
in
West
Fifty
-
fifth
Street
.
430
She
perceived
,
indeed
,
that
other
girls
,
leading
outwardly
the
same
life
as
herself
,
and
seemingly
unaware
of
her
world
of
hidden
beauty
,
were
yet
possessed
of
some
vital
secret
which
escaped
her
.
There
seemed
to
be
a
kind
of
freemasonry
between
them
;
they
were
wider
awake
than
she
,
more
alert
,
and
surer
of
their
wants
if
not
of
their
opinions
.
She
supposed
they
were
cleverer
,
and
accepted
her
inferiority
good
-
humouredly
,
half
aware
,
within
herself
,
of
a
reserve
of
unused
power
which
the
others
gave
no
sign
of
possessing
.
