She
spoke
with
a
kind
of
breathless
haste
as
though
impelled
by
a
force
not
her
own
--
I
stared
at
her
amazed
,
and
in
a
manner
irritated
.
"
Such
a
course
of
action
would
be
impossible
to
me
,
Mavis
,
"
--
I
said
somewhat
coldly
--
"
The
Prince
Rimânez
is
my
best
friend
--
no
man
ever
had
a
better
;
--
and
his
loyalty
to
me
has
been
put
to
a
severe
test
under
which
most
men
would
have
failed
.
I
have
not
told
you
all
.
"
And
I
related
in
a
few
words
the
scene
I
had
witnessed
between
my
wife
and
Lucio
in
the
music-gallery
at
Willowsmere
.
She
listened
--
but
with
an
evident
effort
--
and
pushing
back
her
clustering
hair
from
her
brows
she
sighed
heavily
.
"
I
am
sorry
--
but
it
does
not
alter
my
conviction
!
"
--
she
said
--
"
I
look
upon
your
best
friend
as
your
worst
foe
.
And
I
feel
you
do
not
realize
the
awful
calamity
of
your
wife
's
death
in
its
true
aspect
.
Will
you
forgive
me
if
I
ask
you
to
leave
me
now
?
--
--
Lady
Sibyl
's
letter
has
affected
me
terribly
--
I
feel
I
can
not
speak
about
it
any
more
...
I
wish
I
had
not
read
it
...
"
She
broke
off
with
a
little
half-suppressed
sob
--
I
saw
she
was
unnerved
,
and
taking
the
manuscript
from
her
hand
,
I
said
half-banteringly
--
"
You
can
not
then
suggest
an
epitaph
for
my
wife
's
monument
?
"
She
turned
upon
me
with
a
grand
gesture
of
reproach
.
"
Yes
I
can
!
"
--
she
replied
in
a
low
indignant
voice
--
"
Inscribe
it
as
--
'
From
a
pitiless
hand
to
a
broken
heart
!
'
That
will
suit
the
dead
girl
--
and
you
,
the
living
man
!
"
Her
rustling
gown
swept
across
my
feet
--
she
passed
me
and
was
gone
.
Stupefied
by
her
sudden
anger
,
and
equally
sudden
departure
,
I
stood
inert
--
the
St
Bernard
rose
from
the
hearth-rug
and
glowered
at
me
suspiciously
,
evidently
wishing
me
to
take
my
leave
--
Pallas
Athene
stared
,
as
usual
,
through
me
and
beyond
me
in
a
boundless
scorn
--
all
the
various
objects
in
this
quiet
study
seemed
silently
to
eject
me
as
an
undesired
occupant
.
I
looked
round
it
once
longingly
as
a
tired
outcast
may
look
on
a
peaceful
garden
and
wish
in
vain
to
enter
.
"
How
like
her
sex
she
is
after
all
!
"
I
said
half
aloud
--
"
She
blames
me
for
being
pitiless
--
and
forgets
that
Sibyl
was
the
sinner
--
not
I
!
No
matter
how
guilty
a
woman
may
be
,
she
generally
manages
to
secure
a
certain
amount
of
sympathy
--
a
man
is
always
left
out
in
the
cold
.
