LINES FROM THE TEXT:

Admiration: Love of admiration plays old Harry with women

Careless pity of the young for the old

Clothes were unostentatiously perfect

Decreed of mothers that their birth pangs shall not cease

Desired his emotion to be forgotten

Did not intend to think of the future--present is bad enough

Have never known the luxury of breaking down

Head had been rendered somewhat bald by thought

Hopelessly hopeful

Imagination he distrusted

Inborn sense that she had no need to ask for things

Inconsistency between his theory and his dismay

Infirmity had been growing on him ever since his marriage

Just as well be a dog as a girl, for anything anyone tells you

Man to whom things do not come too easily

Nature is ironical

No real safety but in the past

None of them wished to be the first to speak

Only command likely to be obeyed that came into his head

Only just waiting till to-morrow morning--to kill something

Pendyces never asked their way to anything

People won't make allowances for each other

Perceiving her to be a lady, he went away

She had been born unconscious of her neighbours' scrutinies

Stumbling its little way along with such blind certainty

Taken its stand no sooner than it must, no later than it ought

That which a well-bred woman leaves unanswered

Things that people do get about before they've done them!

Thrilling at the touch of each other's arms

What does 'without prejudice' in this letter mean?

Women who are always doing their duty, their rather painful duty

You want to build before you've laid your foundations

FRATERNITY
