You shall behold him. ”
“Agreed,” said Ann Veronica. ”
It was settled. He was
perhaps forty-five years of age. While he was
meditating flight in this way, and tossing about on the straw, he chanced upon an
old broken and rusty fork. Kneebone, respecting the lawless career of Jack Sheppard, and struck with
the probable fate that awaited him, the young man, as he contemplated this
scene, fell into a gloomy reverie. “Can you come out tonight?”
“Um, sure, I guess. ‘The gatehouse? But why must you move him at all?’
‘Listen, missie. ”
“Who will?”
“The police! The families of the people I’ve killed!
I’m guilty!”
“How old do I have to be?”
“I beg your pardon?”
“To be of use to you. I
know I am undeserving of your bounty; but if I were to tell you what hardships I
have undergone—to what frightful extremities I have been reduced—and to
what infamy I have submitted, to earn a scanty subsistence for this child's sake,
—if you could feel what it is to stand alone in the world as I do, bereft of all who
have ever loved me, and shunned by all who have ever known me, except the
worthless and the wretched,—if you knew (and Heaven grant you may be spared
the knowledge!) how much affliction sharpens love, and how much more dear to
me my child has become for every sacrifice I have made for him,—if you were
told all this, you would, I am sure, pity rather than reproach me, because I cannot
at once consent to a separation, which I feel would break my heart. "
"But, mother, mayn't I sit up to see whether Thames returns?" implored
Winifred. We
think if we just defy the friends we have and go out into the world everything
will become easy and splendid.
