some degree of confidence; her eyes were bright, her cheeks wore a
little glow, there was nothing of embarrassment in her smile or general
air as she addressed my cousin or met his gaze.  In fact, the talk with
Mrs. Howe had done her a deal of good.  Her fears had foreboded a sort
of Hannah More like view of things in Frank's wife--an easy capacity of
recoiling and of being frosted from head to foot by such behaviour as
that of an elopement; and she had no doubt that if Mrs. Howe took her
to her home and showed her some kindness, her conduct would be a mere
effusion of parochial sensibility; it would be her duty--her duty as a
clergyman's wife, and she would not do less for a servant-maid that had
run away with a grocer's assistant.

This, I say, had been my sweetheart's apprehension, but a few minutes'
chat had corrected it, and she could now look with happiness and
friendship at the amiable and pretty, if dowdy, woman who was seated at
her side, and attend without any further appearance of constraint than
what one would expect to find in so young and girlish a character to
the kindly, graceful, warm-hearted conversation of my cousin Frank.

and his wife until we heard from Lady Amelia Roscoe.  I should sleep at
the hotel that night, and next day take possession of the best lodgings
Frank could procure for me in his little parish.  It was also settled
that next day Sophie--for that was Mrs. Howe's Christian name--should
come to Penzance with Grace and purchase all that was immediately
needful in the shape of wearing apparel, and so on.

"I shall to-night," said I, "write to Mademoiselle Championet and
request her to send your boxes, Grace."

"Wait until you hear from Lady Amelia," said Frank.  "She may quarrel
with mademoiselle and refuse to pay her, in which case m
talking.   By this time my darling had regained 
 some degree of assurance; her eye were bright, her cheeks wear a 
 fiddling glow, there was nothing of overplus in her smile or general 
 air as she addressed my cousin or meet his gaze.   In fact, the talk with 
 Mrs. Howe had done her a hand of good.   Her fears had predict a sort 
 of Hannah More like view of things in Frank's wife -- an easy capacity of 
 recoiling and of being frosted from point to foot by such behaviour as 
 that of an elopement; and she had no doubt that if Mrs. Howe take her 
 to her home and showed her some kindness, her conduct would be a bare 
 effusion of parochial sensitivity; it would be her duty -- her duty as a 
 clergyman's wife, and she would not do less for a servant - maid that had 
 run away with a grocer's assistant.
