As
for
Emmy
,
had
she
not
done
her
duty
?
She
had
her
picture
of
George
for
a
consolation
.
Whatever
Becky
's
private
plan
might
be
by
which
Dobbin
's
true
love
was
to
be
crowned
with
success
,
the
little
woman
thought
that
the
secret
might
keep
,
and
indeed
,
being
by
no
means
so
much
interested
about
anybody
's
welfare
as
about
her
own
,
she
had
a
great
number
of
things
pertaining
to
herself
to
consider
,
and
which
concerned
her
a
great
deal
more
than
Major
Dobbin
's
happiness
in
this
life
.
She
found
herself
suddenly
and
unexpectedly
in
snug
comfortable
quarters
,
surrounded
by
friends
,
kindness
,
and
good-natured
simple
people
such
as
she
had
not
met
with
for
many
a
long
day
;
and
,
wanderer
as
she
was
by
force
and
inclination
,
there
were
moments
when
rest
was
pleasant
to
her
.
As
the
most
hardened
Arab
that
ever
careered
across
the
desert
over
the
hump
of
a
dromedary
likes
to
repose
sometimes
under
the
date-trees
by
the
water
,
or
to
come
into
the
cities
,
walk
into
the
bazaars
,
refresh
himself
in
the
baths
,
and
say
his
prayers
in
the
mosques
,
before
he
goes
out
again
marauding
,
so
Jos
's
tents
and
pilau
were
pleasant
to
this
little
Ishmaelite
.
She
picketed
her
steed
,
hung
up
her
weapons
,
and
warmed
herself
comfortably
by
his
fire
.
The
halt
in
that
roving
,
restless
life
was
inexpressibly
soothing
and
pleasant
to
her
.
So
,
pleased
herself
,
she
tried
with
all
her
might
to
please
everybody
;
and
we
know
that
she
was
eminent
and
successful
as
a
practitioner
in
the
art
of
giving
pleasure
.
As
for
Jos
,
even
in
that
little
interview
in
the
garret
at
the
Elephant
Inn
,
she
had
found
means
to
win
back
a
great
deal
of
his
good-will
.
In
the
course
of
a
week
,
the
civilian
was
her
sworn
slave
and
frantic
admirer
.
He
did
n't
go
to
sleep
after
dinner
,
as
his
custom
was
in
the
much
less
lively
society
of
Amelia
.
He
drove
out
with
Becky
in
his
open
carriage
.
He
asked
little
parties
and
invented
festivities
to
do
her
honour
.
Tapeworm
,
the
Charge
d'Affaires
,
who
had
abused
her
so
cruelly
,
came
to
dine
with
Jos
,
and
then
came
every
day
to
pay
his
respects
to
Becky
.
Poor
Emmy
,
who
was
never
very
talkative
,
and
more
glum
and
silent
than
ever
after
Dobbin
's
departure
,
was
quite
forgotten
when
this
superior
genius
made
her
appearance
.
The
French
Minister
was
as
much
charmed
with
her
as
his
English
rival
.
The
German
ladies
,
never
particularly
squeamish
as
regards
morals
,
especially
in
English
people
,
were
delighted
with
the
cleverness
and
wit
of
Mrs.
Osborne
's
charming
friend
,
and
though
she
did
not
ask
to
go
to
Court
,
yet
the
most
august
and
Transparent
Personages
there
heard
of
her
fascinations
and
were
quite
curious
to
know
her
.
When
it
became
known
that
she
was
noble
,
of
an
ancient
English
family
,
that
her
husband
was
a
Colonel
of
the
Guard
,
Excellenz
and
Governor
of
an
island
,
only
separated
from
his
lady
by
one
of
those
trifling
differences
which
are
of
little
account
in
a
country
where
Werther
is
still
read
and
the
Wahlverwandtschaften
of
Goethe
is
considered
an
edifying
moral
book
,
nobody
thought
of
refusing
to
receive
her
in
the
very
highest
society
of
the
little
Duchy
;
and
the
ladies
were
even
more
ready
to
call
her
du
and
to
swear
eternal
friendship
for
her
than
they
had
been
to
bestow
the
same
inestimable
benefits
upon
Amelia
.
Love
and
Liberty
are
interpreted
by
those
simple
Germans
in
a
way
which
honest
folks
in
Yorkshire
and
Somersetshire
little
understand
,
and
a
lady
might
,
in
some
philosophic
and
civilized
towns
,
be
divorced
ever
so
many
times
from
her
respective
husbands
and
keep
her
character
in
society
.
Jos
's
house
never
was
so
pleasant
since
he
had
a
house
of
his
own
as
Rebecca
caused
it
to
be
.
She
sang
,
she
played
,
she
laughed
,
she
talked
in
two
or
three
languages
,
she
brought
everybody
to
the
house
,
and
she
made
Jos
believe
that
it
was
his
own
great
social
talents
and
wit
which
gathered
the
society
of
the
place
round
about
him
.
As
for
Emmy
,
who
found
herself
not
in
the
least
mistress
of
her
own
house
,
except
when
the
bills
were
to
be
paid
,
Becky
soon
discovered
the
way
to
soothe
and
please
her
.
She
talked
to
her
perpetually
about
Major
Dobbin
sent
about
his
business
,
and
made
no
scruple
of
declaring
her
admiration
for
that
excellent
,
high-minded
gentleman
,
and
of
telling
Emmy
that
she
had
behaved
most
cruelly
regarding
him
.
Emmy
defended
her
conduct
and
showed
that
it
was
dictated
only
by
the
purest
religious
principles
;
that
a
woman
once
,
&
c.
,
and
to
such
an
angel
as
him
whom
she
had
had
the
good
fortune
to
marry
,
was
married
forever
;
but
she
had
no
objection
to
hear
the
Major
praised
as
much
as
ever
Becky
chose
to
praise
him
,
and
indeed
,
brought
the
conversation
round
to
the
Dobbin
subject
a
score
of
times
every
day
.
Means
were
easily
found
to
win
the
favour
of
Georgy
and
the
servants
.
Amelia
's
maid
,
it
has
been
said
,
was
heart
and
soul
in
favour
of
the
generous
Major
.
Having
at
first
disliked
Becky
for
being
the
means
of
dismissing
him
from
the
presence
of
her
mistress
,
she
was
reconciled
to
Mrs.
Crawley
subsequently
,
because
the
latter
became
William
's
most
ardent
admirer
and
champion
.
And
in
those
nightly
conclaves
in
which
the
two
ladies
indulged
after
their
parties
,
and
while
Miss
Payne
was
"
brushing
their
'
airs
,
"
as
she
called
the
yellow
locks
of
the
one
and
the
soft
brown
tresses
of
the
other
,
this
girl
always
put
in
her
word
for
that
dear
good
gentleman
Major
Dobbin
.
Her
advocacy
did
not
make
Amelia
angry
any
more
than
Rebecca
's
admiration
of
him
.
She
made
George
write
to
him
constantly
and
persisted
in
sending
Mamma
's
kind
love
in
a
postscript
.
