’
You
are
my
brother
Stephen
’
s
cousin
;
you
are
his
wife
’
s
old
friend
.
’
’
All
the
more
reason
,
Henry
,
for
trusting
me
with
the
charge
of
their
children
.
’
’
But
you
are
their
equal
;
you
are
not
obliged
to
get
your
living
by
teaching
.
There
is
something
absurd
in
your
entering
their
service
as
a
governess
!
’
’
What
is
there
absurd
in
it
?
The
children
love
me
;
the
mother
loves
me
;
the
father
has
shown
me
innumerable
instances
of
his
true
friendship
and
regard
.
I
am
the
very
woman
for
the
place
—
and
,
as
to
my
education
,
I
must
have
completely
forgotten
it
indeed
,
if
I
am
not
fit
to
teach
three
children
the
eldest
of
whom
is
only
eleven
years
old
.
You
say
I
am
their
equal
.
Are
there
no
other
women
who
serve
as
governesses
,
and
who
are
the
equals
of
the
persons
whom
they
serve
?
Besides
,
I
don
’
t
know
that
I
am
their
equal
.
Have
I
not
heard
that
your
brother
Stephen
was
the
next
heir
to
the
title
?
Will
he
not
be
the
new
lord
?
Never
mind
answering
me
!
We
won
’
t
dispute
whether
I
am
right
or
wrong
in
turning
governess
—
we
will
wait
the
event
.
I
am
weary
of
my
lonely
useless
existence
here
,
and
eager
to
make
my
life
more
happy
and
more
useful
,
in
the
household
of
all
others
in
which
I
should
like
most
to
have
a
place
.
If
you
will
look
again
,
you
will
see
that
I
have
these
personal
considerations
still
to
urge
before
I
finish
my
letter
.
You
don
’
t
know
your
brother
and
his
wife
as
well
as
I
do
,
if
you
doubt
their
answer
.
I
believe
they
have
courage
enough
and
heart
enough
to
say
Yes
.
’
Henry
submitted
without
being
convinced
.
He
was
a
man
who
disliked
all
eccentric
departures
from
custom
and
routine
;
and
he
felt
especially
suspicious
of
the
change
proposed
in
the
life
of
Agnes
.
With
new
interests
to
occupy
her
mind
,
she
might
be
less
favourably
disposed
to
listen
to
him
,
on
the
next
occasion
when
he
urged
his
suit
.
The
influence
of
the
’
lonely
useless
existence
’
of
which
she
complained
,
was
distinctly
an
influence
in
his
favour
.
While
her
heart
was
empty
,
her
heart
was
accessible
.
But
with
his
nieces
in
full
possession
of
it
,
the
clouds
of
doubt
overshadowed
his
prospects
.
He
knew
the
sex
well
enough
to
keep
these
purely
selfish
perplexities
to
himself
.
The
waiting
policy
was
especially
the
policy
to
pursue
with
a
woman
as
sensitive
as
Agnes
.
If
he
once
offended
her
delicacy
he
was
lost
.
For
the
moment
he
wisely
controlled
himself
and
changed
the
subject
.
’
My
little
niece
’
s
letter
has
had
an
effect
,
’
he
said
,
’
which
the
child
never
contemplated
in
writing
it
.
She
has
just
reminded
me
of
one
of
the
objects
that
I
had
in
calling
on
you
to
-
day
.
’
Agnes
looked
at
the
child
’
s
letter
.
’
How
does
Lucy
do
that
?
’
she
asked
.
