Not
to-night
,
Miss
Rosamond
,
not
to-night
.
"
Mr.
St.
John
spoke
almost
like
an
automaton
:
himself
only
knew
the
effort
it
cost
him
thus
to
refuse
.
"
Well
,
if
you
are
so
obstinate
,
I
will
leave
you
;
for
I
dare
not
stay
any
longer
:
the
dew
begins
to
fall
.
Good
evening
!
"

She
held
out
her
hand
.
He
just
touched
it
.
"
Good
evening
!
"
he
repeated
,
in
a
voice
low
and
hollow
as
an
echo
.
She
turned
,
but
in
a
moment
returned
.
"
Are
you
well
?
"
she
asked
.
Well
might
she
put
the
question
:
his
face
was
blanched
as
her
gown
.
"
Quite
well
,
"
he
enunciated
;
and
,
with
a
bow
,
he
left
the
gate
.
She
went
one
way
;
he
another
.
She
turned
twice
to
gaze
after
him
as
she
tripped
fairy-like
down
the
field
;
he
,
as
he
strode
firmly
across
,
never
turned
at
all
.
This
spectacle
of
another
's
suffering
and
sacrifice
rapt
my
thoughts
from
exclusive
meditation
on
my
own
.
Diana
Rivers
had
designated
her
brother
"
inexorable
as
death
.
"
She
had
not
exaggerated
.

I
continued
the
labours
of
the
village-school
as
actively
and
faithfully
as
I
could
.
It
was
truly
hard
work
at
first
.
Some
time
elapsed
before
,
with
all
my
efforts
,
I
could
comprehend
my
scholars
and
their
nature
.
Wholly
untaught
,
with
faculties
quite
torpid
,
they
seemed
to
me
hopelessly
dull
;
and
,
at
first
sight
,
all
dull
alike
:
but
I
soon
found
I
was
mistaken
.
There
was
a
difference
amongst
them
as
amongst
the
educated
;
and
when
I
got
to
know
them
,
and
they
me
,
this
difference
rapidly
developed
itself
.
Their
amazement
at
me
,
my
language
,
my
rules
,
and
ways
,
once
subsided
,
I
found
some
of
these
heavy-looking
,
gaping
rustics
wake
up
into
sharp-witted
girls
enough
.
Many
showed
themselves
obliging
,
and
amiable
too
;
and
I
discovered
amongst
them
not
a
few
examples
of
natural
politeness
,
and
innate
self-respect
,
as
well
as
of
excellent
capacity
,
that
won
both
my
goodwill
and
my
admiration
.
These
soon
took
a
pleasure
in
doing
their
work
well
,
in
keeping
their
persons
neat
,
in
learning
their
tasks
regularly
,
in
acquiring
quiet
and
orderly
manners
.
The
rapidity
of
their
progress
,
in
some
instances
,
was
even
surprising
;
and
an
honest
and
happy
pride
I
took
in
it
:
besides
,
I
began
personally
to
like
some
of
the
best
girls
;
and
they
liked
me
.
I
had
amongst
my
scholars
several
farmers
'
daughters
:
young
women
grown
,
almost
.
These
could
already
read
,
write
,
and
sew
;
and
to
them
I
taught
the
elements
of
grammar
,
geography
,
history
,
and
the
finer
kinds
of
needlework
.
I
found
estimable
characters
amongst
them
--
characters
desirous
of
information
and
disposed
for
improvement
--
with
whom
I
passed
many
a
pleasant
evening
hour
in
their
own
homes
.
Their
parents
then
(
the
farmer
and
his
wife
)
loaded
me
with
attentions
.
There
was
an
enjoyment
in
accepting
their
simple
kindness
,
and
in
repaying
it
by
a
consideration
--
a
scrupulous
regard
to
their
feelings
--
to
which
they
were
not
,
perhaps
,
at
all
times
accustomed
,
and
which
both
charmed
and
benefited
them
;
because
,
while
it
elevated
them
in
their
own
eyes
,
it
made
them
emulous
to
merit
the
deferential
treatment
they
received
.
I
felt
I
became
a
favourite
in
the
neighbourhood
.
Whenever
I
went
out
,
I
heard
on
all
sides
cordial
salutations
,
and
was
welcomed
with
friendly
smiles
.
To
live
amidst
general
regard
,
though
it
be
but
the
regard
of
working
people
,
is
like
"
sitting
in
sunshine
,
calm
and
sweet
;
"
serene
inward
feelings
bud
and
bloom
under
the
ray
.
At
this
period
of
my
life
,
my
heart
far
oftener
swelled
with
thankfulness
than
sank
with
dejection
:
and
yet
,
reader
,
to
tell
you
all
,
in
the
midst
of
this
calm
,
this
useful
existence
--
after
a
day
passed
in
honourable
exertion
amongst
my
scholars
,
an
evening
spent
in
drawing
or
reading
contentedly
alone
--
I
used
to
rush
into
strange
dreams
at
night
:
dreams
many-coloured
,
agitated
,
full
of
the
ideal
,
the
stirring
,
the
stormy
--
dreams
where
,
amidst
unusual
scenes
,
charged
with
adventure
,
with
agitating
risk
and
romantic
chance
,
I
still
again
and
again
met
Mr.
Rochester
,
always
at
some
exciting
crisis
;
