Hindley
and
Cathy
contented
themselves
with
looking
and
listening
till
peace
was
restored
:
then
,
both
began
searching
their
father
's
pockets
for
the
presents
he
had
promised
them
.
The
former
was
a
boy
of
fourteen
,
but
when
he
drew
out
what
had
been
a
fiddle
crushed
to
morsels
in
the
great-coat
,
he
blubbered
aloud
;
and
Cathy
,
when
she
learned
the
master
had
lost
her
whip
in
attending
on
the
stranger
,
showed
her
humour
by
grinning
and
spitting
at
the
stupid
little
thing
;
earning
for
her
pains
a
sound
blow
from
her
father
to
teach
her
cleaner
manners
.
222
They
entirely
refused
to
have
it
in
bed
with
them
,
or
even
in
their
room
;
and
I
had
no
more
sense
,
so
I
put
it
on
the
landing
of
the
stairs
,
hoping
it
might
be
gone
on
the
morrow
.
By
chance
,
or
else
attracted
by
hearing
his
voice
,
it
crept
to
Mr.
Earnshaw
's
door
,
and
there
he
found
it
on
quitting
his
chamber
.
Enquiries
were
made
as
to
how
it
got
there
;
I
was
obliged
to
confess
,
and
in
recompense
for
my
cowardice
and
inhumanity
was
sent
out
of
the
house
.
223
This
was
Heathcliff
's
first
introduction
to
the
family
.
On
coming
back
a
few
days
afterwards
(
for
I
did
not
consider
my
banishment
perpetual
)
I
found
they
had
christened
him
"
Heathcliff
"
:
it
was
the
name
of
a
son
who
died
in
childhood
,
and
it
has
served
him
ever
since
,
both
for
Christian
and
surname
.
Miss
Cathy
and
he
were
now
very
thick
;
but
Hindley
hated
him
!
and
to
say
the
truth
I
did
the
same
;
and
we
plagued
and
went
on
with
him
shamefully
:
for
I
was
n't
reasonable
enough
to
feel
my
injustice
,
and
the
mistress
never
put
in
a
word
on
his
behalf
when
she
saw
him
wronged
.

He
seemed
a
sullen
,
patient
child
;
hardened
,
perhaps
,
to
ill-treatment
:
he
would
stand
Hindley
's
blows
without
a
wink
or
shedding
a
tear
,
and
my
pinches
moved
him
only
to
draw
in
a
breath
and
open
his
eyes
,
as
if
he
had
hurt
himself
by
accident
and
nobody
was
to
blame
.
This
endurance
made
old
Earnshaw
furious
,
when
he
discovered
his
son
persecuting
the
poor
,
fatherless
child
,
as
he
called
him
.
He
took
to
Heathcliff
strangely
,
believing
all
he
said
(
for
that
matter
,
he
said
precious
little
,
and
generally
the
truth
)
,
and
petting
him
up
far
above
Cathy
,
who
was
too
mischievous
and
wayward
for
a
favourite
.
225
So
,
from
the
very
beginning
,
he
bred
bad
feeling
in
the
house
;
and
at
Mrs.
Earnshaw
's
death
,
which
happened
in
less
than
two
years
after
,
the
young
master
had
learned
to
regard
his
father
as
an
oppressor
rather
than
a
friend
,
and
Heathcliff
as
a
usurper
of
his
parent
's
affections
and
his
privileges
;
and
he
grew
bitter
with
brooding
over
these
injuries
.
I
sympathised
a
while
;
but
when
the
children
fell
ill
of
the
measles
,
and
I
had
to
tend
them
,
and
take
on
me
the
cares
of
a
woman
at
once
,
I
changed
my
ideas
.
Heathcliff
was
dangerously
sick
:
and
while
he
lay
at
the
worst
he
would
have
me
constantly
by
his
pillow
:
I
suppose
he
felt
I
did
a
good
deal
for
him
,
and
he
had
n't
wit
to
guess
that
I
was
compelled
to
do
it
.
However
,
I
will
say
this
,
he
was
the
quietest
child
that
ever
nurse
watched
over
.
The
difference
between
him
and
the
others
forced
me
to
be
less
partial
.
Cathy
and
her
brother
harassed
me
terribly
:
he
was
as
uncomplaining
as
a
lamb
;
though
hardness
,
not
gentleness
,
made
him
give
little
trouble
.
226
He
got
through
,
and
the
doctor
affirmed
it
was
in
a
great
measure
owing
to
me
and
praised
me
for
my
care
.
I
was
vain
of
his
commendations
,
and
softened
towards
the
being
by
whose
means
I
earned
them
,
and
thus
Hindley
lost
his
last
ally
:
still
I
could
n't
dote
on
Heathcliff
,
and
I
wondered
often
what
my
master
saw
to
admire
so
much
in
the
sullen
boy
,
who
never
,
to
my
recollection
,
repaid
his
indulgence
by
any
sign
of
gratitude
.
He
was
not
insolent
to
his
benefactor
,
he
was
simply
insensible
;
though
knowing
perfectly
the
hold
he
had
on
his
heart
,
and
conscious
he
had
only
to
speak
and
all
the
house
would
be
obliged
to
bend
to
his
wishes
.
As
an
instance
,
I
remember
Mr.
Earnshaw
once
bought
a
couple
of
colts
at
the
parish
fair
,
and
gave
the
lads
each
one
.
227
Heathcliff
took
the
handsomest
,
but
it
soon
fell
lame
,
and
when
he
discovered
it
,
he
said
to
Hindley
--
"
You
must
exchange
horses
with
me
:
I
do
n't
like
mine
;
and
if
you
wo
n't
I
shall
tell
your
father
of
the
three
thrashings
you
've
given
me
this
week
,
and
show
him
my
arm
,
which
is
black
to
the
shoulder
.
"
Hindley
put
out
his
tongue
and
cuffed
him
over
the
ears
.
"
You
'd
better
do
it
at
once
,
"
he
persisted
,
escaping
to
the
porch
(
they
were
in
the
stable
)
:
"
you
will
have
to
;
and
if
I
speak
of
these
blows
,
you
'll
get
them
again
with
interest
.
"
"
Off
,
dog
!
"
cried
Hindley
,
threatening
him
with
an
iron
weight
used
for
weighing
potatoes
and
hay
.
"
Throw
it
,
"
he
replied
,
standing
still
,
"
and
then
I
'll
tell
how
you
boasted
that
you
would
turn
me
out
of
doors
as
soon
as
he
died
,
and
see
whether
he
will
not
turn
you
out
directly
.
"
Hindley
threw
it
,
hitting
him
on
the
breast
,
and
down
he
fell
,
but
staggered
up
immediately
,
breathless
and
white
;
and
had
not
I
prevented
it
,
he
would
have
gone
just
so
to
the
master
,
and
got
full
revenge
by
letting
his
condition
plead
for
him
,
intimating
he
had
caused
it
.
"
Take
my
colt
,
gypsy
,
then
!
"
said
young
Earnshaw
.
"
And
I
pray
that
he
may
break
your
neck
:
take
him
,
and
be
damned
,
you
beggarly
interloper
!
and
wheedle
my
father
out
of
all
he
has
:
only
afterwards
show
him
what
you
are
,
imp
of
Satan
.
--
And
take
that
,
I
hope
he
'll
kick
out
your
brains
!

Heathcliff
had
gone
to
loose
the
beast
,
and
shift
it
to
his
own
stall
;
he
was
passing
behind
it
,
when
Hindley
finished
his
speech
by
knocking
him
under
its
feet
,
and
without
stopping
to
examine
whether
his
hopes
were
fulfilled
,
ran
away
as
fast
as
he
could
.
I
was
surprised
to
witness
how
coolly
the
child
gathered
himself
up
,
and
went
on
with
his
intention
;
exchanging
saddles
and
all
,
and
then
sitting
down
on
a
bundle
of
hay
to
overcome
the
qualm
which
the
violent
blow
occasioned
,
before
he
entered
the
house
.
229
I
persuaded
him
easily
to
let
me
lay
the
blame
of
his
bruises
on
the
horse
:
he
minded
little
what
tale
was
told
since
he
had
what
he
wanted
.
He
complained
so
seldom
,
indeed
,
of
such
stirs
as
these
,
that
I
really
thought
him
not
vindictive
:
I
was
deceived
completely
,
as
you
will
hear
.
230
In
the
course
of
time
,
Mr.
Earnshaw
began
to
fail
.
He
had
been
active
and
healthy
,
yet
his
strength
left
him
suddenly
;
and
when
he
was
confined
to
the
chimney-corner
he
grew
grievously
irritable
.
A
nothing
vexed
him
;
and
suspected
slights
of
his
authority
nearly
threw
him
into
fits
.
This
was
especially
to
be
remarked
if
any
one
attempted
to
impose
upon
,
or
domineer
over
,
his
favourite
:
he
was
painfully
jealous
lest
a
word
should
be
spoken
amiss
to
him
;
seeming
to
have
got
into
his
head
the
notion
that
,
because
he
liked
Heathcliff
,
all
hated
,
and
longed
to
do
him
an
ill
turn
.
It
was
a
disadvantage
to
the
lad
;
for
the
kinder
among
us
did
not
wish
to
fret
the
master
,
so
we
humoured
his
partiality
;
and
that
humouring
was
rich
nourishment
to
the
child
's
pride
and
black
tempers
.
Still
it
became
in
a
manner
necessary
;
twice
,
or
thrice
,
Hindley
's
manifestation
of
scorn
,
while
his
father
was
near
,
roused
the
old
man
to
a
fury
:
he
seized
his
stick
to
strike
him
,
and
shook
with
rage
that
he
could
not
do
it
.
