I
do
n't
mind
seeing
Rawdon
,
"
she
added
,
after
a
pause
,
and
in
a
tone
of
perfect
indifference
.
"
I
had
just
as
soon
shake
hands
with
him
as
not
.
Provided
there
is
no
scene
,
why
should
n't
we
meet
?
I
do
n't
mind
.
But
human
patience
has
its
limits
;
and
mind
,
my
dear
,
I
respectfully
decline
to
receive
Mrs.
Rawdon
--
I
ca
n't
support
that
quite
"
--
and
Miss
Briggs
was
fain
to
be
content
with
this
half-message
of
conciliation
;
and
thought
that
the
best
method
of
bringing
the
old
lady
and
her
nephew
together
,
was
to
warn
Rawdon
to
be
in
waiting
on
the
Cliff
,
when
Miss
Crawley
went
out
for
her
air
in
her
chair
.
There
they
met
.
I
do
n't
know
whether
Miss
Crawley
had
any
private
feeling
of
regard
or
emotion
upon
seeing
her
old
favourite
;
but
she
held
out
a
couple
of
fingers
to
him
with
as
smiling
and
good-humoured
an
air
,
as
if
they
had
met
only
the
day
before
.
And
as
for
Rawdon
,
he
turned
as
red
as
scarlet
,
and
wrung
off
Briggs
's
hand
,
so
great
was
his
rapture
and
his
confusion
at
the
meeting
.
Perhaps
it
was
interest
that
moved
him
:
or
perhaps
affection
:
perhaps
he
was
touched
by
the
change
which
the
illness
of
the
last
weeks
had
wrought
in
his
aunt
.
"
The
old
girl
has
always
acted
like
a
trump
to
me
,
"
he
said
to
his
wife
,
as
he
narrated
the
interview
,
"
and
I
felt
,
you
know
,
rather
queer
,
and
that
sort
of
thing
.
I
walked
by
the
side
of
the
what-dy
'
e-call
-
'em
,
you
know
,
and
to
her
own
door
,
where
Bowls
came
to
help
her
in
.
And
I
wanted
to
go
in
very
much
,
only
--
"
"
YOU
DID
N'T
GO
IN
,
Rawdon
!
"
screamed
his
wife
.
"
No
,
my
dear
;
I
'm
hanged
if
I
was
n't
afraid
when
it
came
to
the
point
.
"
"
You
fool
!
you
ought
to
have
gone
in
,
and
never
come
out
again
,
"
Rebecca
said
.
"
Do
n't
call
me
names
,
"
said
the
big
Guardsman
,
sulkily
.
"
Perhaps
I
WAS
a
fool
,
Becky
,
but
you
should
n't
say
so
"
;
and
he
gave
his
wife
a
look
,
such
as
his
countenance
could
wear
when
angered
,
and
such
as
was
not
pleasant
to
face
.
"
Well
,
dearest
,
to-morrow
you
must
be
on
the
look-out
,
and
go
and
see
her
,
mind
,
whether
she
asks
you
or
no
,
"
Rebecca
said
,
trying
to
soothe
her
angry
yoke-mate
.
On
which
he
replied
,
that
he
would
do
exactly
as
he
liked
,
and
would
just
thank
her
to
keep
a
civil
tongue
in
her
head
--
and
the
wounded
husband
went
away
,
and
passed
the
forenoon
at
the
billiard-room
,
sulky
,
silent
,
and
suspicious
.
But
before
the
night
was
over
he
was
compelled
to
give
in
,
and
own
,
as
usual
,
to
his
wife
's
superior
prudence
and
foresight
,
by
the
most
melancholy
confirmation
of
the
presentiments
which
she
had
regarding
the
consequences
of
the
mistake
which
he
had
made
.
Miss
Crawley
must
have
had
some
emotion
upon
seeing
him
and
shaking
hands
with
him
after
so
long
a
rupture
.
She
mused
upon
the
meeting
a
considerable
time
.
"
Rawdon
is
getting
very
fat
and
old
,
Briggs
,
"
she
said
to
her
companion
.
"
His
nose
has
become
red
,
and
he
is
exceedingly
coarse
in
appearance
.
His
marriage
to
that
woman
has
hopelessly
vulgarised
him
.
Mrs.
Bute
always
said
they
drank
together
;
and
I
have
no
doubt
they
do
.
Yes
:
he
smelt
of
gin
abominably
.
I
remarked
it
.
Did
n't
you
?
"
In
vain
Briggs
interposed
that
Mrs.
Bute
spoke
ill
of
everybody
:
and
,
as
far
as
a
person
in
her
humble
position
could
judge
,
was
an
