Ruth
could tell the doctor; she could bare many of her innermost thoughts to that
kindly man; but there was an inexplicable reserve before this young man whom
she still endued with the melancholy charm of Sydney Carton. The twists in his brain had suddenly
straightened out; he was normal, wholly himself; and he knew now exactly what
he had done. So long as
matters remain as they are, and they found me, there would be no shame for
Ruth. “They’re all doing great. The struggle had dislodged the white wimple,
which was evidently too large for her, and her black hair broke free, whirling
like a whiplash about her head as her hands curled into fists, coming up to beat
at his chest, her little teeth bared for attack. A dovecoloured kincob gown, embroidered with large trees, and made very low in front,
displayed to the greatest possible advantage, the rounded proportions of her
figure; while a high-heeled, red-leather shoe did not detract from the symmetry
of a very neat ankle, and a very small foot. But always this new phase in life which civilization
called convention threw up barrier after barrier. This is not the
conduct of a jeune demoiselle.
