Can
I
be
of
any
service
?
"
I
inquired
,
with
a
side-glance
at
Rimânez
,
who
stood
gravely
apart
,
a
statuesquely
composed
figure
of
silence
.
"
No
no
--
thanks
all
the
same
!
"
and
the
Earl
pressed
my
hand
gratefully
--
"
She
should
not
have
come
downstairs
--
it
has
been
too
exciting
for
her
.
Sybil
,
do
n't
look
at
her
,
my
dear
--
it
will
only
unnerve
you
--
Miss
Chesney
,
pray
go
to
your
room
--
Charlotte
can
do
all
that
is
possible
--
--
"
As
he
spoke
two
of
the
men-servants
came
in
to
carry
the
insensible
Countess
upstairs
--
and
as
they
slowly
bore
her
on
her
coffin-like
couch
past
me
,
one
of
them
drew
the
coverlet
across
her
face
to
conceal
it
.
But
not
so
quickly
that
I
could
not
see
the
awful
change
impressed
upon
it
--
the
indelible
horror
that
was
stamped
on
the
drawn
features
--
horror
such
as
surely
never
was
seen
except
in
a
painter
's
idea
of
some
lost
soul
in
torment
.
The
eyes
were
rolled
up
and
fixed
in
their
sockets
like
balls
of
glass
,
and
in
them
also
was
frozen
the
same
frenzied
desperate
look
of
fear
.
It
was
a
dreadful
face
!
--
so
dreadful
in
its
ghastly
immovableness
that
I
was
all
at
once
reminded
of
my
hideous
vision
of
the
previous
night
,
and
the
pallid
countenances
of
the
three
phantoms
that
had
scared
me
in
my
sleep
.
Lady
Elton
's
looks
now
resembled
theirs
!
Sickened
and
appalled
I
averted
my
eyes
,
and
was
glad
to
see
Rimânez
taking
farewell
of
his
host
,
the
while
he
expressed
his
regret
and
sympathy
with
him
in
his
domestic
affliction
.
I
myself
,
approaching
Lady
Sibyl
,
pressed
her
cold
and
trembling
hand
in
mine
,
and
respectfully
kissed
it
.
"
I
am
deeply
sorry
!
"
I
murmured
--
"
I
wish
I
could
do
anything
to
console
you
!
"
She
looked
at
me
with
dry
calm
eyes
.
"
Thank-you
.
But
the
doctors
have
always
said
that
my
mother
would
have
another
shock
depriving
her
of
speech
.
It
is
very
sad
;
she
will
probably
live
for
some
years
like
that
.
"
I
again
expressed
my
sympathy
.
"
May
I
come
and
inquire
about
you
all
to-morrow
?
"
I
asked
.
"
It
will
be
very
kind
of
you
,
"
--
she
answered
quietly
.
