otions shall not be shared between me and the shape he sees in his mirror。 Mr。 Rochester; now sing; and I will play for you。”

“I am all obedience;” was the response。

“Here then is a Corsair…song。 Know that I doat on Corsairs; and for that reason; sing it con spirito。”

“mands from Miss Ingram’s lips would put spirit into a mug of milk and water。”

“Take care; then: if you don’t please me; I will shame you by showing how such things should be done。”

“That is offering a premium on incapacity: I shall now endeavour to fail。”

“Gardez…vous en bien! If you err wilfully; I shall devise a proportionate punishment。”

“Miss Ingram ought to be clement; for she has it in her power to inflict a chastisement beyond mortal endurance。”

“Ha! explain!” manded the lady。

“Pardon me; madam: no need of explanation; your own fine sense must inform you that one of your frowns would be a sufficient substitute for capital punishment。”

“Sing!” said she; and again touching the piano; she menced an acpaniment in spirited style。

“Now is my time to slip away;” thought I: but the tones that then severed the air arrested me。 Mrs。 Fairfax had said Mr。 Rochester possessed a fine voice: he did—a mellow; powerful bass; into which he threw his own feeling; his own force; finding a way through the ear to the heart; and there waking sensation strangely。 I waited till the last deep and full vibration had expired—till the tide of talk; checked an instant; had resumed its floy sheltered corner and made my exit by the side…door; which was fortunately near。 Thence a narrow passage led into the hall: in crossing it; I perceived my sandal was loose; I stopped to tie it; kneeling down for that purpose on the mat at the foot of the staircase。 I heard the dining…room door unclose; a gentleman came out; rising hastily; I stood face to face with him: it was Mr。 Rochester。

“How do you do?” he asked。

“I am very well; sir。”

“Why did you not e and speak to me in the room?”

I thought I might have retorted the question on him who put it: but I would not take that freedom。 I answered—

“I did not wish to disturb you; as you seemed engaged; sir。”

“What have you been doing during my absence?”

“Nothing particular; teaching Adèle as usual。”

“And getting a good deal paler than you were—as I saw at first sight。 What is the matter?”

“Nothing at all; sir。”

“Did you take any cold that night you half drowned me?”

“Not she least。”

“Return to the drawing…room: you are deserting too early。”

“I am tired; sir。”

He looked at me for a minute。

“And a little depressed;” he said。 “What about? Tell me。”
