Chapter XXIII
But I will come to my point at once.
‘I shall do nothing…’
‘Am I to think that he behaved well?’
Chapter XXIV
Eames had on one occasion been thrown…

Chapter XXXIII
‘Why should I wait?’
The archdeaco kept two curates…
Chapter XXXIV

It was agreed among them…
‘I will tell you nothing more.’

He did not especially like Mr. Broughton…
At that moment a loud, harsh voice…
Chapter XLIV
‘God bless me. They seem to have…’

‘Bernard says that Miss Dunstable…’
The reader will remember those two words…
Then Lily began to take an active part…
Chapter XLVI
Had she not somewhat relaxed…
‘I don’t think you were at all foolish…’
Chapter XLVII
Dr. Tempest was well known…
The bishop’s secretary had written…
‘It is beginning to be a question to me,’ …
The whole of this speech…
‘You mean to be stubborn,’ said Mrs. Proudie…
What could he do, even supposing himself…
Chapter XLVII
‘I must, under the circumstances, decline…’
Chapter XLIX
It was her habit to go over to the deanery…
Mr. Harding, when he was younger…
On the afternoon after the conversation
But all this had nothing to do with the duty…

‘I suppose that for some time he would be…’

The affair seemed to flourish…
‘And what happens when one has to suffer…?

‘Gentlemen,’ said Dr. Tempest…
‘That is my idea of what had better be done…’

The lady who wrote had pledged herself…
They had nearly completed their delightful…
It must be acknowledged in excuse for…
As if she had not thought of it all before!
Chapter LX
He did not for a moment doubt the truth…
Mrs. Broughton had now tucked her feet up…

He was still a scholar…
It was about noon…
