I wish to hear no more of this." "Do not be angered with Mr.Marchdale, Charles," said Henry.

"He can have no motive but our welfare in what he says.

We should not condemn a speaker because his words may not sound pleasant to our ears." "By Heaven!" said Charles, with animation, "I meant not to be illiberal; but I will not because I cannot see a man's motives for active interference in the affairs of others, always be ready, merely on account of such ignorance, to jump to a conclusion that they must be estimable." "To-morrow, I leave this house," said Marchdale.
"Leave us ?" exclaimed Henry.
"Ay, for ever." "Nay, now, Mr.Marchdale, is this generous ?" "Am I treated generously by one who is your own guest, and towards whom I was willing to hold out the honest right hand of friendship ?" Henry turned to Charles Holland, saying,-- "Charles, I know your generous nature.

Say you meant no offence to my mother's old friend." "If to say I meant no offence," said Charles, "is to say I meant no insult, I say it freely." "Enough," cried Marchdale; "I am satisfied." "But do not," added Charles, "draw me any more such pictures as the one you have already presented to my imagination, I beg of you.

From the storehouse of my own fancy I can find quite enough to make me wretched, if I choose to be so; but again and again do I say I will not allow this monstrous superstition to tread me down, like the tread of a giant on a broken reed.
