I
before
proved
to
you
the
absurdity
of
a
single
woman
of
your
age
proposing
to
accompany
abroad
a
single
man
of
mine
.
I
proved
it
to
you
in
such
terms
as
,
I
should
have
thought
,
would
have
prevented
your
ever
again
alluding
to
the
plan
.
That
you
have
done
so
,
I
regret
--
for
your
sake
.
"
I
interrupted
him
.
Anything
like
a
tangible
reproach
gave
me
courage
at
once
.
"
Keep
to
common
sense
,
St.
John
:
you
are
verging
on
nonsense
.
You
pretend
to
be
shocked
by
what
I
have
said
.
You
are
not
really
shocked
:
for
,
with
your
superior
mind
,
you
can
not
be
either
so
dull
or
so
conceited
as
to
misunderstand
my
meaning
.
I
say
again
,
I
will
be
your
curate
,
if
you
like
,
but
never
your
wife
.
"
Again
he
turned
lividly
pale
;
but
,
as
before
,
controlled
his
passion
perfectly
.
He
answered
emphatically
but
calmly
--
"
A
female
curate
,
who
is
not
my
wife
,
would
never
suit
me
.
With
me
,
then
,
it
seems
,
you
can
not
go
:
but
if
you
are
sincere
in
your
offer
,
I
will
,
while
in
town
,
speak
to
a
married
missionary
,
whose
wife
needs
a
coadjutor
.
Your
own
fortune
will
make
you
independent
of
the
Society
's
aid
;
and
thus
you
may
still
be
spared
the
dishonour
of
breaking
your
promise
and
deserting
the
band
you
engaged
to
join
.
"
Now
I
never
had
,
as
the
reader
knows
,
either
given
any
formal
promise
or
entered
into
any
engagement
;
and
this
language
was
all
much
too
hard
and
much
too
despotic
for
the
occasion
.
I
replied
--
"
There
is
no
dishonour
,
no
breach
of
promise
,
no
desertion
in
the
case
.
I
am
not
under
the
slightest
obligation
to
go
to
India
,
especially
with
strangers
.
With
you
I
would
have
ventured
much
,
because
I
admire
,
confide
in
,
and
,
as
a
sister
,
I
love
you
;
but
I
am
convinced
that
,
go
when
and
with
whom
I
would
,
I
should
not
live
long
in
that
climate
.
"
"
Ah
!
you
are
afraid
of
yourself
,
"
he
said
,
curling
his
lip
.
"
I
am
.
God
did
not
give
me
my
life
to
throw
away
;
and
to
do
as
you
wish
me
would
,
I
begin
to
think
,
be
almost
equivalent
to
committing
suicide
.
Moreover
,
before
I
definitively
resolve
on
quitting
England
,
I
will
know
for
certain
whether
I
can
not
be
of
greater
use
by
remaining
in
it
than
by
leaving
it
.

What
do
you
mean
