wood thinking I'd see Thorn come out of

the cottage and then I could make my

peace with

ay

what way Beth was still around with his

snares I didn't pay any attention to him

I was just waiting to see Thorn come out

of the

cottage but after a Time 20 minutes

perhaps I heard a

shot which seemed to come from the

cottage a moment later Thor came panting

and tearing out of the cottage door he

was in a state of absolute Terror he

tore past me down the path and

afterwards heard the sound of his horse

Galloping

away what was up you should look so

scared ran to the house and threw open

the

door the first thing I saw was hon lying

on the floor

Dead with my gun by his

side well I

panicked I snatched up the gun why did

you do that I thought it would look bad

if my gun was found next to Hon's

[Music]

body I made off through the door

and I saw bethl coming towards the

cottage I did the worst thing possible I

flung the gun back in the cottage and I

ran for it as fast as I

against you so much as running away all

been in hiding ever

since what else could I do the coroner

said I killed

him

Richard at the inquest baffy swore there

was no one there that day but her and

her father and you no she's not there

the woods she heard a shot she came back

to the cottage and saw the body of her

father lying there with bethl standing

over it and Beth said there was no one

there but her and

truth but I don't understand why he

coming tonight yes my

lady and is that the same Barbara hair

that I heard you gossiping about the

other day about her giving me a bowl of

poison was only a bit of nonsense my

match I should wear the black lace

to Belo the refreshing seed

dips but I shall devote myself to an

entirely more worthy

[Music]

object

[Music]

a

my let me look at

you why you positively well and blooming

escorting your wife on some of her walks

within my

path I want you to stay with me the rest

of the time that I must remain

here and dear how could you wish

anything so unlikely at circuit time

well then take me with you back to

England no not when I find the change is

doing you so much

good well I I can't stay here without

you

why

because because I'm so dull without

you we must get you to amuse her

Lucy

I long for

England I don't suppose there's any

chance of my getting back not unless you

can satisfy these claims you've been

telling me

of won't sir Peter help you I think you

might if I could explain things to me

but a dad set foot over there and get

dropped off I mean the bare idea of de's

prison scares me half to death someone

might see him for you someone who I

quarrel with my lawyers

pity when I come to the loosen Estates

they'll be ready to eat their ears on

until then shall I see him for

you extremely generous of you Mr Cara no

not at all I have to be in England in a

few days I could see your uncle next

week will you I should be happy to in

return for your kind attentions to my

wife no no no no not as a solicitor as a

friend

[Music]

you remember when we drove through the

forest together you and I Mrs Bane and

the others yes well you drove Mrs Bane

home badly I suppose she swore that you

should never drive her

again I drove her recklessly on purpose

she's perfectly suited to her name you

know

vain the most capricious exacting woman

I've ever

met dear

Emma I did it to pay her out why what

had she done to you she have been of bad

humor saddled herself upon me when I

wanted another to be my

companion L

Sher

sh can't you guess better than that

Isel the past is gone and cannot be

record but if ever two beings were made

to love each other you and I were I

sometimes thought let me speak isabe no

a few words a few short words then I

have done

forever I would have declared myself had

I dared but my my uncertain position my

debts my inability to keep a wife these

things weighed me down made me made me

crush the hope within me I will not hear

this Captain N I knew I loved you but

not how until you became the wife of

another how dare

you I've said Can Do no harm neither you

or I liked to forget that you are a

wife I have vowed my affection to you at

first and love let you throw yourself

away on car throw myself away Mr carile

is my very dear husband look at him what

are you by his side you forget yourself

I do not you would not speak this way if

Mr carile were here I you good day

sir forgive me I will not offend

again but there are moments when one's

when one's true feelings break through

the rules of

life you are a gentleman sir you will

let me proceed by

myself I shall follow you to your door

to give you protection I feel the walk

is likely to prove uous as I leave for L

[Music]

immediately Isabelle I suppose we have

rooms ready for

visitors yes I believe so good because

I'm expecting one I I forgot to mention

it earlier oh who is coming Captain

Lucy

who Francis

Lucy his uncle can to see him but his

aunt absolutely refuses to have him at

Lucen Park so I've offered to give him

house room

here

Arch I do not wish him to stay at East

Linn only be for a few days seems to me

to be a decent enough fellow he doesn't

pay his debts but that's no more than a

hundred others and his manners are good

don't you

think Aral please Isabelle you will

welcome

I will receive him if you wish me to I

will never welcome

[Music]

house oh perhaps she's with her

children

[Music]

the one of your servants and she never

complained to the master not once she

bore it all like a saint until she could

stand it no

longer I understand her words now I

couldn't

before Oh s may heaven support you in

this terrible

trial it was my

fault

no

me when my children ask where their

mother is and why she left

goed her to

it if they ask what she is tell them

back in time of course I meant to soon

as I set foot in London I was

overwhelmed with business consequent on

my uncle's death you're lying dare you

say I'm lying Mr carile had got his

divorce you knew that but you concealed

it from me Isabel you must be aware it's

an awful sacrifice for a man in my

position to marry a divorced woman the

sacrifice would not have been for my

sake but for the sake of the child child

our child surely you understand I'm the

representative of an ancient

Barony to make you my wife would offend

all my family you need no trouble to

find excuses the damage to the child

cannot now be

repaired I was thinking of you well I

can't imagine a worse fate than spending

the rest of my life with you oh

well you taken a sudden aversion to me I

cannot be helped no ie agree you kicked

up enough fuss once about my making

reparation now the reparation in your

power to make could not undo my sin

sin oh

no now you ladies really should think of

that

beforehand yes yes you sinned as you

call it not because of my Temptations

but because of your jealous anger

towards your

husband quite true you're blindly

outrageously jealous of him and the ha

girl yes I was you were the least of it

simply a person who happened to be

there well I don't believe for a minute

but you had anything to be jealous about

what do you

mean they had a secret between them they

were

Partners out of love of business they

were never

lovers how do you know I have heard

scraps of their conversation from time

to

time

that it's not what you taught me at the

time didn't

I all strategy is ofair and Love and

War and where is

she she like me I would rather have a

dead my room prepared for

me no it is not why

not now I don't have to be back in

London for a couple of days the

apartments have been transferred into my

name they can never again afford you

accommodation Immortal Enemies then oh

all connected with her no one could ever

have taken any notice off her

again let me read

it if you

can she wrote it when she was

dying well we should all be grateful

it is a blight removed from the

family it was that ale that gave it me

how could ale give it you unless you

drank it in Great drafts when you were

in a state of persperation you'll be a

baby to the end of your days archal when

do I ever drink great drafts of Ale no I

was down in the cellar this morning

seeing to the tapping of a new barrel

and the cellar struck like a ice house

and I was there for 20 minutes or more

does it take so long to tap a barrel of

a no no it doesn't put things are in

order but it does when you have to

bother over the Taps rejecting one and

then

another well what time is

it just

9: well I think I'll go to

bed there's one thing excellent for a

cold in the head and that's to double

your flannel Petticoat Crossways and put

it all over your night cap I'll do it

yes I

would good night good night

Cornelia

Cornelia may I say one right before you

go when I married Isabelle you

reproached me with having kept you in

the dark if you consulted me as any

Christian would the disgrace which fell

on this house would have been spared to

it I believe you have never holy

forgiven me no it never shall I did not

deserve the slight I your elder sister

who have been a mother to you almost

since you were a boy I do not intend to

CAU your displeasure a second time for a

similar offense what does that

mean I'm about to

marry oh for the love of common sense

don't go and make such a fool of

yourself you've done it once once wasn't

that enough for you Cornelia can you

wonder I don't speak to you of such

things when you treat me just as you did

when I was a child when folks behave

childishly they deserve to be treated as

children and whom have you chosen this

time to go and disgrace us like the last

one did I am marrying to please myself

as you did the last time yes as I did

the last

time well can't you open your mouth and

say who it is no I have not asked her

yet she may not have me I know who it is

it's that stuck up Louisa Channing well

you are an idiot you really are that may

be and since you are unlikely to approve

my choice you will I assume wish to

return to your own home I she do nothing

of the sort I shall stop here once to

hinder

me it cannot

be who says so Louisa I

do have you forgotten the night that

Isabelle left and the words spoken by

Joyce you will not find a better

Mistress of a house than I have made

you don't expect

to you speakers there you think I'll

poison your wife if I stay here I think

I know what you did to my first

wife I take care not to run the same

risk a second time

BL

[Music]

Mrs L says she's sure Madame van is just

what we want she's English by birth but

the Widow of a French

she's been with the latimers for two

years now and they say she's an absolute

treasure and wouldn't be parting with

her but for Helena's

marriage what's this Treasure's name ve

you said spelt Vine pronounced Bean

apparently Mrs Latimer says we mustn't

mind her appearance she's the oddest

looking person de shall we love I hope

not but she wears spectacles and large

Bonnets and she has a rather large scar

on the side of her face from some old

accident and she has a slight limp and

gray hair but she can't be more than 30

probably the result of the same this

sounds like the Wicked Witch in a fairy

tale oh done don't say so and you

determined to have her I think I

am I suppose she might be useful for

writing the
