To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" " What ou earth do you mean ? " " People to whom one is not bound to show even the ordinary courtesy which every woman has a right to expect. " " My dear Henrietta, you really astonish me ! Pray tell me what offence I have committed, if you really ineau that it is I who am the cause of your tears. " " And you actually ask ? " replied Henrietta, in a scornful tone. "Yes ; and I am waiting patiently for your answer if you please to give me one. " " But I do not please to answer. You may treat m...e as uncivilly as you like ; but you can- not compel me to speak, when I am determined to be silent. " She took off her pretty bonnet, threw it carelessly on the back seat, tied a silk handker- chief over her head, and settled herself in the corner of the carriage. If Henrietta had meant to produce a great effect by this little scene, she must have been sorely disappointed to see John sink back again into his former abstraction. Scarcely a quar- ter of an hour had passed before he appeared to have completely forgotten that anything had happned, or even that he was not alone, for he sighed deeply several times ; and there is no saying hew long this might have contin- ued, if Henrietta could have remained passive, but hers was by no means a passive disposi- tion.
