So, in short, Haley," said he, suddenly dropping from the tone of dignified coolness to his ordinary one of easy frankness, "the best way for you is to keep good-natured and eat some breakfast, and we will then see what is to be done."

When she had washed up the breakfast things and taken the child for her walk, she continued her former young girl's existence, of a somnolent emptiness, lulled by the vague expectation of a joy which never came.
