"I'm perfectly willing to give him a chance to tell me so!" "If you do that he'll tell you more than you care to hear.

Go to the house, for the next month, as little as possible, and leave the rest to me." "As little as possible?
Who's to measure the possibility ?" "Let me measure it.

Go on Thursday evenings with the rest of the world, but don't go at all at odd times, and don't fret about Pansy.

I'll see that she understands everything.

She's a calm little nature; she'll take it quietly." Edward Rosier fretted about Pansy a good deal, but he did as he was advised, and awaited another Thursday evening before returning to Palazzo Roccanera.
