СКАЧАТЬ must not think Janet too spiteful. Marriages were always too much for her, but after the wedding is over she becomes good-natured again. She is a strange mixture, and, I rather think, very romantic, despite her cynical talk.

      Well, I confess now, that for a time I was somewhat afraid of Lizzie's sailor myself. His letters became few in number, and often I saw Lizzie with red eyes after the post had passed. She had too much work to do to allow her to mope, but she became unhappy and showed a want of spirit that alarmed her father, who liked to shout at his relatives and have them shout back at him.

      "I wish she had never set eyes on that sailor," he said to me one day when Lizzie was troubling him.

      "She could have had William Simpson," her mother said to Janet.

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
