I know that what I said must hurt you, and I knew it then.

It would have been easy to have spoken smooth, easy to lie to you; can you not think how I was tempted to the same?
Cannot you see the truth of my heart shine out ?" "I think here is a great deal of work, Mr.Balfour," said she.

"I think we will have met but the once, and will can part like gentle-folk." "O, let me have one to believe in me!" I pleaded, "I cannae bear it else.

The whole world is clanned against me.

How am I to go through with my dreadful fate?
If there's to be none to believe in me I cannot do it.
The man must just die, for I cannot do it." She had still looked straight in front of her, head in air; but at my words or the tone of my voice she came to a stop.
