Perhaps
two
or
three
weeks
,
certainly
not
more
.
After
the
Easter
recess
,
Sir
George
Lynn
,
who
was
lately
elected
member
for
Millcote
,
will
have
to
go
up
to
town
and
take
his
seat
;
I
daresay
Mr.
Rochester
will
accompany
him
:
it
surprises
me
that
he
has
already
made
so
protracted
a
stay
at
Thornfield
.
"
It
was
with
some
trepidation
that
I
perceived
the
hour
approach
when
I
was
to
repair
with
my
charge
to
the
drawing-room
.
Adele
had
been
in
a
state
of
ecstasy
all
day
,
after
hearing
she
was
to
be
presented
to
the
ladies
in
the
evening
;
and
it
was
not
till
Sophie
commenced
the
operation
of
dressing
her
that
she
sobered
down
.
Then
the
importance
of
the
process
quickly
steadied
her
,
and
by
the
time
she
had
her
curls
arranged
in
well-smoothed
,
drooping
clusters
,
her
pink
satin
frock
put
on
,
her
long
sash
tied
,
and
her
lace
mittens
adjusted
,
she
looked
as
grave
as
any
judge
.
No
need
to
warn
her
not
to
disarrange
her
attire
:
when
she
was
dressed
,
she
sat
demurely
down
in
her
little
chair
,
taking
care
previously
to
lift
up
the
satin
skirt
for
fear
she
should
crease
it
,
and
assured
me
she
would
not
stir
thence
till
I
was
ready
.
This
I
quickly
was
:
my
best
dress
(
the
silver-grey
one
,
purchased
for
Miss
Temple
's
wedding
,
and
never
worn
since
)
was
soon
put
on
;
my
hair
was
soon
smoothed
;
my
sole
ornament
,
the
pearl
brooch
,
soon
assumed
.
We
descended
.
Fortunately
there
was
another
entrance
to
the
drawing-room
than
that
through
the
saloon
where
they
were
all
seated
at
dinner
.
We
found
the
apartment
vacant
;
a
large
fire
burning
silently
on
the
marble
hearth
,
and
wax
candles
shining
in
bright
solitude
,
amid
the
exquisite
flowers
with
which
the
tables
were
adorned
.
The
crimson
curtain
hung
before
the
arch
:
slight
as
was
the
separation
this
drapery
formed
from
the
party
in
the
adjoining
saloon
,
they
spoke
in
so
low
a
key
that
nothing
of
their
conversation
could
be
distinguished
beyond
a
soothing
murmur
.
Adele
,
who
appeared
to
be
still
under
the
influence
of
a
most
solemnising
impression
,
sat
down
,
without
a
word
,
on
the
footstool
I
pointed
out
to
her
.
I
retired
to
a
window-seat
,
and
taking
a
book
from
a
table
near
,
endeavoured
to
read
.
Adele
brought
her
stool
to
my
feet
;
ere
long
she
touched
my
knee
.
"
What
is
it
,
Adele
?
"
"
Est-ce
que
je
ne
puis
pas
prendrie
une
seule
de
ces
fleurs
magnifiques
,
mademoiselle
?
Seulement
pour
completer
ma
toilette
.
"
"
You
think
too
much
of
your
'
toilette
,
'
Adele
:
but
you
may
have
a
flower
.
"
And
I
took
a
rose
from
a
vase
and
fastened
it
in
her
sash
.
She
sighed
a
sigh
of
ineffable
satisfaction
,
as
if
her
cup
of
happiness
were
now
full
.
I
turned
my
face
away
to
conceal
a
smile
I
could
not
suppress
:
there
was
something
ludicrous
as
well
as
painful
in
the
little
Parisienne
's
earnest
and
innate
devotion
to
matters
of
dress
.
A
soft
sound
of
rising
now
became
audible
;
the
curtain
was
swept
back
from
the
arch
;
through
it
appeared
the
dining-room
,
with
its
lit
lustre
pouring
down
light
on
the
silver
and
glass
of
a
magnificent
dessert-service
covering
a
long
table
;
a
band
of
ladies
stood
in
the
opening
;
they
entered
,
and
the
curtain
fell
behind
them
.
