Our Adventurer Becomes Absolute in His Power Over the Passions of His Friend, and Effects One Half Of His Aim.
Influenced by this dire1 mistake, the breast of those unhappy lovers began to be invaded with the horrors of jealousy2. The tender-hearted Monimia endeavoured to devour3 her griefs in silence; she in secret bemoaned4 her forlorn fate without ceasing; her tears flowed without intermission from night to morn, and from morn to night. She sought not to know the object for which she was forsaken5; she meant not to upbraid7 her undoer; her aim was to find a sequestered8 corner, in which she could indulge her sorrow; where she could brood over the melancholy9 remembrance of her former felicity; where she could recollect10 those happy scenes she had enjoyed under the wings of her indulgent parents, when her whole life was a revolution of pleasures, and she was surrounded with affluence11, pomp, and admiration12; where she could, unmolested, dwell upon the wretched comparison between her past and present condition, and paint every circumstance of her misery13 in the most aggravating14 colours, that they might make the deeper impression upon her mind, and the more speedily contribute to that dissolution for which she ardently15 wished, as a total release from woe16.
Amidst these pinings, she began to loathe17 all sustenance18; her cheeks grew wan19, her bright eyes lost their splendour, the roses vanished from her lips, and her delicate limbs could hardly support their burden; in a word, her sole consolation20 was limited to the prospect21 of depositing her sorrows in the grave; and her only wish was to procure22 a retreat in which she might wait with resignation for that happy period. Yet this melancholy comfort she could not obtain without the advice and mediation23 of Fathom24, whom she therefore still continued to see and consult. While these consultations25 were held, Renaldo’s bosom26 was ravaged27 with tempests of rage and distraction28. He believed himself superseded29 in the affection of his mistress, by some favoured rival, whose success rankled30 at his soul; and though he scarce durst communicate the suspicion to his own heart, his observation continually whispered to him that he was supplanted31 by his friend Fathom; for Monimia was totally detached from the conversation of every other man, and he had of late noted32 their intercourse33 with distempered eyes.
These considerations sometimes transported him to such a degree of frenzy34, that he was tempted35 to sacrifice them both as traitors37 to gratitude38, friendship, and love; but such deliriums soon vanished before his honour and humanity. He would not allow himself to think amiss of Ferdinand, until some undoubted mark of his guilt39 should appear; and this was so far from being the case, that hitherto there was scarce a presumption40. “On the contrary,” said he to himself, “I am hourly receiving proofs of his sympathy and attachment41. Not but that he may be the innocent cause of my mishap42. His superior qualifications may have attracted the eye, and engaged the heart of that inconstant fair, without his being sensible of the victory he has won; or, perhaps, shocked at the conquest he hath unwillingly43 made, he discourages her advances, tries to reason down her unjustifiable passion, and in the meantime conceals45 from me the particulars, out of regard to my happiness and quiet.”
Under cover of these favourable46 conjectures47, our adventurer securely prosecuted48 his scheme upon the unfortunate Monimia. He dedicated49 himself wholly to her service and conversation, except at those times when his company was requested by Renaldo, who now very seldom exacted his attendance. In his ministry50 about the person of the beauteous orphan51, this cunning incendiary mingled52 such awful regard, such melting compassion53, as effectually screened him from the suspicion of treachery, while he widened the fatal breach54 between her and her lover by the most diabolical55 insinuations. He represented his friend as a voluptuary, who gratified his own appetite without the least regard to honour or conscience; and, with a show of infinite reluctance56, imparted some anecdotes57 of his sensuality, which he had feigned58 for the purpose; then he would exclaim in an affected59 transport, “Gracious Heaven! is it possible for any man who has the least title to perception or humanity to injure such innocence60 and perfection! for my own part, had I been so undeservedly happy — Heaven and earth! forgive my transports, madam, I cannot help seeing and admiring such divine attractions. I cannot help resenting your wrongs; it is the cause of virtue61 I espouse62; it ought to be the cause of every honest man.”
He had often repeated such apostrophes as these, which she ascribed to nothing else than sheer benevolence63 and virtuous64 indignation, and actually began to think he had made some impression upon her heart, not that he now entertained the hope of an immediate65 triumph over her chastity. The more he contemplated66 her character, the more difficult the conquest seemed to be: he therefore altered his plan, and resolved to carry on his operations under the shelter of honourable67 proposals, foreseeing that a wife of her qualifications, if properly managed, would turn greatly to the account of the husband, or, if her virtue should prove refractory68, that he could at any time rid himself of the encumbrance69, by decamping without beat of drum, after he should be cloyed70 with possession.
Elevated by these expectations, he one day, in the midst of a preconcerted rhapsody, importing that he could no longer conceal44 the fire that preyed71 upon his heart, threw himself on his knees before the lovely mourner, and imprinted73 a kiss on her fair hand. Though he did not presume to take this liberty till after such preparation as he thought had altogether extinguished her regard for Melvil, and paved the way for his own reception in room of that discarded lover, he had so far overshot his mark, that Monimia, instead of favouring his declaration, started up, and retired74 in silence, her cheeks glowing with shame, and her eyes gleaming with indignation.
Ferdinand no sooner recovered from the confusion produced by this unexpected repulse75, than he saw the necessity of coming to a speedy determination, lest the offended fair one should appeal to Renaldo, in which case they might be mutually undeceived, to his utter shame and confusion; he therefore resolved to deprecate her anger by humble76 supplications, and by protesting, that, whatever tortures he might suffer by suppressing his sentiments, she should never again be offended with a declaration of his passion.
Having thus appeased77 the gentle Monimia, and discovered that, in spite of her resentment78, his friend still kept possession of her heart, he determined79 to work an effectual separation, so as that the young lady, being utterly80 deserted81 by Melvil, should be left altogether in his power. With this Christian82 intention, he began to sadden his visage with a double shade of pensive83 melancholy, in the presence of Renaldo, to stifle84 a succession of involuntary sighs, to answer from the purpose, to be incoherent in his discourse85, and, in a word, to act the part of a person wrapt up in sorrowful cogitation86.
Count Melvil, soon as he perceived these symptoms, very kindly87 inquired into the cause of them, and was not a little alarmed to hear the artful and evasive answers of Ferdinand, who, without disclosing the source of his disquiet88, earnestly begged leave to retire into some other corner of the world. Roused by this entreaty89, the Hungarian’s jealousy awoke, and with violent agitation90, he exclaimed, “Then are my fears too true, my dear Fathom: I comprehend the meaning of your request. I have for some time perceived an host of horrors approaching from that quarter. I know your worth and honour. I depend upon your friendship, and conjure91 you, by all the ties of it, to free me at once from the most miserable92 suspense93, by owning you have involuntarily captivated the heart of that unhappy maiden94.”
To this solemn interrogation he made no reply, but shedding a flood of tears, of which he had always a magazine at command, he repeated his desire of withdrawing, and took God to witness, that what he proposed was solely95 for the quiet of his honoured patron and beloved friend. “Enough,” cried the unfortunate Renaldo, “the measure of my woes96 is now filled up.” So saying, he fell backwards97 in a swoon, from which he was with difficulty recovered to the sensation of the most exquisite98 torments99. During this paroxysm, our adventurer nursed him with infinite care and tenderness, he exhorted100 him to summon all his fortitude101 to his assistance, to remember his forefathers102, and exert himself in the imitation of their virtues103, to fly from those bewitching charms which had enslaved his better part, to retrieve104 his peace of mind by reflecting on the inconstancy and ingratitude105 of woman, and amuse his imagination in the pursuit of honour and glory.
After these admonitions he abused his ears with a forged detail of the gradual advances made to him by Monimia, and the steps he had taken to discourage her addresses, and re-establish her virtue, poisoning the mind of that credulous106 youth to such a degree, that, in all probability, he would have put a fatal period to his own existence, had not Fathom found means to allay107 the rage of his ecstasy108, by the cunning arrangement of opposite considerations. He set his pride against his love, he opposed his resentment to his sorrow, and his ambition to his despair. Notwithstanding the balance of power so settled among these antagonists109, so violent were the shocks of their successive conflicts, that his bosom fared like a wretched province, harassed110, depopulated, and laid waste, by two fierce contending armies. From this moment his life was nothing but an alternation of starts and reveries; he wept and raved111 by turns, according to the prevailing112 gust113 of passion; food became a stranger to his lips, and sleep to his eyelids114; he could not support the presence of Monimia, her absence increased the torture of his pangs115; and, when he met her by accident, he started back with horror, like a traveller who chances to tread upon a snake.
The poor afflicted116 orphan, worn to a shadow with self-consuming anguish117, eager to find some lowly retreat, where she could breath out her soul in peace, and terrified at the frantic118 behaviour of Renaldo, communicated to Fathom her desire of removing, and begged that he would take a small picture of her father, decorated with diamonds, and convert them into money, for the expense of her subsistence. This was the last pledge of her family, which she had received from her mother, who had preserved it in the midst of numberless distresses120, and no other species of misery but that which she groaned122 under could have prevailed upon the daughter to part with it; but, exclusive of other motives123, the very image itself, by recalling to her mind the honours of her name, upbraided124 her with living in dependence125 upon a man who had treated her with such indignity126 and ingratitude; besides, she flattered herself with the hope that she should not long survive the loss of this testimonial.
Our adventurer, with many professions of sorrow and mortification128 at his own want of capacity to prevent such an alienation129, undertook to dispose of it to the best advantage, and to provide her with a cheap and retired apartment, to which he would conduct her in safety, though at the hazard of his life. In the meantime, however, he repaired to his friend Renaldo, and, after having admonished130 him to arm his soul with patience and philosophy, declared that Monimia’s guilty passion for himself could no longer be kept within bounds, that she had conjured131 him, in the most pressing manner, to assist her in escaping from an house which she considered as the worst of dungeons132, because she was in it daily exposed to the sight and company of a man whom she detested133, and that she had bribed134 him to compliance135 with her request, not only with repeated promises of eternal love and submission136, but also with the picture of her father set with diamonds, which she had hitherto reserved as the last and greatest testimony137 of her affection and esteem138.
With these words he presented the fatal pledge to the eyes of the astonished youth, upon whom it operated like the poisonous sight of the basilisk, for in an instant, the whole passions of his soul were in the most violent agitation. “What!” cried he, in an ecstasy of rage, “is she so abandoned to perfidy139, so lost to shame, so damned to constancy, to gratitude, and virtuous love, as to meditate140 the means of leaving me without decency141, without remorse142! to forsake6 me in my adversity, when my hapless fortune can no longer flatter the pride and vanity of her expectation! O woman! woman! woman! what simile143 shall I find to illustrate144 the character of the sex? But I will not have recourse to vain complaints and feeble exclamations145. By Heaven! she shall not ‘scape, she shall not triumph in her levity146, she shall not exult147 in my distress119; no! I will rather sacrifice her to my just resentment, to the injured powers of love and friendship. I will act the avenging148 minister of Heaven! I will mangle149 that fair bosom, which contains so false a heart! I will tear her to pieces, and scatter150 those beauteous limbs as a prey72 to the beasts of the field, and the fowls151 of the air!”
Fathom, who expected this storm, far from attempting to oppose its progress, waited with patience until its first violence was overblown; then, assuming an air of condolence, animated152 with that resolution which a friend ought to maintain on such occasions, “My dear Count,” said he, “I am not at all surprised at your emotion, because I know what an heart, susceptible153 as yours, must feel from the apostasy154 of one who has reigned155 so long the object of your love, admiration, and esteem. Your endeavours to drive her from your thoughts must create an agony much more severe than that which divorces the soul from the body. Nevertheless, I am so confident of your virtue and your manhood, as to foresee, that you will allow the fair Monimia to execute that resolution which she hath so unwisely taken, to withdraw herself from your love and protection. Believe me, my best friend and benefactor156, this is a step, in consequence of which you will infallibly retrieve your peace of mind. It may cost you many bitter pangs, it may probe your wounds to the quick; but those pangs will be soothed157 by the gentle and salutary wing of time, and that probing will rouse you to a due sense of your own dignity and importance, which will enable you to convert your attention to objects far more worthy158 of your contemplation. All the hopes of happiness you had cherished in the possession of Monimia are now irrecoverably blasted; her heart is now debased beneath your consideration; her love is, without all doubt, extinguished, and her honour irretrievably lost; insomuch, that, were she to profess127 sorrow for her indiscretion, and implore160 your forgiveness, with the most solemn promises of regarding you for the future with unalterable fidelity161 and affection, you ought not to restore her to that place in your heart which she hath so meanly forfeited162, because you could not at the same time reinstate her in the possession of that delicate esteem without which there is no harmony, no rapture163, no true enjoyment164 in love.
“No, my dear Renaldo, expel the unworthy tenant165 from your bosom; allow her to fill up the measure of her ingratitude, by deserting her lover, friend, and benefactor. Your glory demands her dismission; the world will applaud your generosity166, and your own heart approve of your conduct. So disencumbered, let us exert ourselves once more in promoting your departure from this island, that you may revisit your father’s house, do justice to yourself and amiable167 sister, and take vengeance168 on the author of your wrongs; then dedicate yourself to glory, in imitation of your renowned169 ancestors, and flourish in the favour of your imperial patron.”
These remonstrances170 had such an effect upon the Hungarian, that his face was lighted up with a transient gleam of satisfaction. He embraced Ferdinand with great ardour, calling him his pride, his Mentor171, his good genius, and entreated172 him to gratify the inclination173 of that fickle174 creature so far as to convey her to another lodging175, without loss of time, while he would, by absenting himself, favour their retreat.
Our hero having obtained this permission, went immediately to the skirts of the town, where he had previously176 bespoke177 a small, though neat apartment, at the house of an old woman, widow of a French refugee. He had already reconnoitred the ground, by sounding his landlady178, from whose poverty and complaisance179 he found reason to expect all sorts of freedom and opportunity for the accomplishment180 of his aim upon Monimia’s person. The room being prepared for her reception, he returned to that disconsolate181 beauty, to whom he presented ten guineas, which he pretended to have raised by pledging the picture, though he himself acted as the pawnbroker182 on this occasion, for a very plain and obvious reason.
The fair orphan was overjoyed to find her wish so speedily accomplished183. She forthwith packed up her necessaries in a trunk; and a hackney-coach was called in the dusk of the evening, in which she embarked185 with her baggage and conductor.
Yet she did not leave the habitation of Renaldo without regret. In the instant of parting, the idea of that unfortunate youth was associated with every well-known object that presented itself to her eyes; not as an inconstant, ungenerous, and perjured186 swain, but as the accomplished, the virtuous, the melting lover, who had captivated her virgin187 heart. As Fathom led her to the door, she was met by Renaldo’s dog, which had long been her favourite; and the poor animal fawning188 upon her as she passed, her heart was overwhelmed with such a gush189 of tenderness, that a flood of tears streamed down her cheeks, and she had well-nigh sunk upon the floor.
Ferdinand, considering this emotion as the last tribute she would pay to Renaldo, hurried her into the coach, where she soon recovered her composure; and in a little time he ushered190 her into the house of Madam la Mer, by whom she was received with great cordiality, and conducted to her apartment, with which she found no other fault than that of its being too good for one in her forlorn situation. Here, while the tear of gratitude started in either eye, she thanked our adventurer for his benevolence and kind concern, assuring him, that she would not fail duly to beseech191 the Most High to shower down blessings192 upon him, as the orphan’s friend and protector.
Fathom was not deficient193 in those expressions that were best adapted to her present turn of mind. He observed, that what he had done was in obedience194 to the dictates195 of common humanity, which would have prompted him to assist any fellow-creature in distress; but that her peculiar196 virtue and qualifications were such as challenged the utmost exertion197 of his faculties198 in her service. He said, that surely Heaven had not created such perfection in vain; that she was destined199 to receive as well as to communicate happiness; and that the Providence200, which she so piously201 adored, would not fail, in due season, to raise her from distress and affliction, to that honour and felicity for which she was certainly ordained202. In the meantime, he entreated her to depend upon his service and fidelity, and the article of her board being settled, he left her to the company and consolation of her discreet203 hostess, who soon insinuated204 herself into the good opinion of her beauteous lodger205.
While our hero was employed in this transaction, Renaldo sallied forth184 in a sort of intoxication206, which Fathom’s admonitions had inspired; and, repairing to a certain noted coffee-house, engaged at chess with an old French refugee, that his attention, by being otherwise employed, might not stray towards that fatal object which he ardently wished to forget. But, unluckily for him, he had scarce performed three moves of the game, when his ears were exposed to a dialogue between two young gentlemen, one of whom asked the other if he would go and see the “Orphan” acted at one of the theatres; observing, as a farther inducement, that the part of Monimia would be performed by a young gentlewoman who had never appeared on the stage. At mention of that name, Renaldo started; for though it did not properly belong to his orphan, it was the appellation207 by which she had been distinguished208 ever since her separation from her father’s house, and therefore it recalled her to his imagination in the most interesting point of view. Though he endeavoured to expel the image, by a closer application to his play, every now and then it intruded209 upon his fancy, and at each return made a stronger impression; so that he found himself in the situation of an unfortunate bark stranded210 upon some hidden rock, which, when the wind begins to blow, feels every succeeding wave more boisterous211 than the former, until, with irresistible212 fury, they surmount213 her deck, sweep everything before them, and dash her all to pieces.
The refugee had observed his first emotion, which he attributed to an unforeseen advantage he himself had gained over the Hungarian; but seeing him, in the sequel, bite his lip, roll his eyes, groan121, writhe214 his body, ejaculate incoherent curses, and neglect his game, the Huguenot concluded that he was mad, and being seized with terror and dismay, got up and scampered215 off, without ceremony or hesitation216.
Melvil, thus left to the horrors of his own thought, which tortured him with the apprehension217 of losing Monimia for ever, could no longer combat that suggestion, but ran homewards with all the speed he could exert, in order to prevent her retreat. When he crossed the threshold, he was struck with such a damp of presaging218 fear, that he durst not in person approach her apartment, nor even, by questioning the servant, inform himself of the particulars he wanted to know. Yet his suspense becoming more insupportable than his fear, he rushed from room to room in quest of that which was not to be found; and, seeing Monimia’s chamber219 door open, entered the deserted temple in a state of distraction, calling aloud upon her name. All was silent, solitary220, and woful. “She is gone,” he cried, shedding a flood of tears, “she is for ever lost; and all my hopes of happiness are fled!”
So saying, he sunk upon that couch on which Monimia had oft reposed221, and abandoned himself to all the excess of grief and despondence. In this deplorable condition he was found by our adventurer, who gently chid222 him for his want of resolution, and again repelled223 his sorrow, by arousing his resentment against the innocent cause of his disquiet, having beforehand forged the particulars of provocation224.
“Is it possible,” said he, “that Renaldo can still retain the least sentiment of regard for a fickle woman, by whom he has been so ungratefully forsaken and so unjustly scorned? Is it possible he can be so disturbed by the loss of a creature who is herself lost to all virtue and decorum?— Time and reflection, my worthy friend, will cure you of that inglorious malady225. And the future misconduct of that imprudent damsel will, doubtless, contribute to the recovery of your peace. Her behaviour, at leaving the house where she had received so many marks of the most delicate affection, was in all respects so opposite to honour and decency, that I could scarce refrain from telling her I was shocked at her deportment, even while she loaded me with protestations of love. When a woman’s heart is once depraved, she bids adieu to all restraint;— she preserves no measures. It was not simply contempt which she expressed for Renaldo; she seems to resent his being able to live under her disdain226; and that resentment stoops to objects unworthy of indignation. Even your dog was not exempted227 from the effects of her displeasure. For, in her passage to the door, she kicked the poor animal as one of your dependents; and, in our way to the apartment I had provided for her, she entertained me with a ludicrous comment upon the manner in which you first made her acquainted with your passion. All that modesty228 of carriage, all that chastity of conversation, all that dignity of grief, which she knew so well how to affect, is now entirely229 laid aside, and, when I quitted her, she seemed the most gay, giddy, and impertinent of her sex.”
“Gracious powers!” exclaimed Renaldo, starting from the couch, “am I under the delusion230 of a dream; or are these things really so, as my friend has represented them? Such a total and sudden degeneracy is amazing! is monstrous231 and unnatural232!”
“Such, my dear Count,” replied our hero, “is the caprice of a female heart, fickle as the wind, uncertain as a calm at sea, fixed233 to no principle, but swayed by every fantastic gust of passion, or of whim234. Congratulate yourself, therefore, my friend, upon your happy deliverance from such a domestic plague — upon the voluntary exile of a traitor36 from your bosom.— Recollect the dictates of your duty, your discretion159, and your glory, and think upon the honours and elevated enjoyment for which you are certainly ordained. To-night let us over a cheerful bottle anticipate your success; and to-morrow I will accompany you to the house of an usurer, who, I am informed, fears no risk, provided twenty per cent be given, and the borrower’s life insured.”
