O sad and solemn is the trembling watch
Of those who sit and count the heavy hours,
Beside the fevered sleep of one they love!
O awful is it in the hushed mid-night,
While gazing on the pallid1, moveless form,
To start and ask, "Is it now sleep--or death?" ANONYMOUS2.
Mary could not be patient in her loneliness; painful thought weighed on her mind; the very house haunted with memories and foreshadowings.
Having performed all duties to Jem, as f weak powers, yet loving heart could act; ant veil being drawn4 over her father's past, present, and future life, beyond which she could not penetrate5 to judge of any filial service she ought to render; her mind unconsciously sought after some course in which she might engage. Any thing, any thing, a rather than leisure for reflection.
And then came up the old feeling which first bound Ruth to Naomi; the love they both held towards one object; and Mary felt that her cares would be most lightened by being of use, or of comfort to his mother. So she once more locked up the house, and set off towards Ancoats; rushing along with down-cast head, for fear lest any one should recognise her and arrest her progress.
Jane Wilson sat quietly in her chair as Mary entered; so quietly, as to strike one by the contrast it presented to her usual bustling6, and nervous manner.
She looked very pale and wan7; but the quietness was the thing that struck Mary most. She did not rise as Mary came in, but sat still and said something in so gentle, so feeble a voice, that Mary did not catch it.
Mrs Davenport, who was there, plucked Mary by the gown, and whispered, "Never heed8 her; she's worn out, and best let alone. I'll tell you all about it, up-stairs."
But Mary, touched by the anxious look with which Mrs Wilson gazed at her, as if waiting the answer to some question, went forward to listen to the speech she was again repeating.
"What is this? will you tell me?"
