Excerpt from Reseda, Vol. 3 of 3
Lady Wychwood said this with some trepida tion. She longed to make her daughter take some step by which she would be bound, and yet she dreaded rousing her spirit of opposition. She did not quite understand Hilda, and could not make out whether she cared for Lord Willibald, as she sometimes fancied was the case, or whether there was some one else', some one who would be unacceptable to Mr. Caw thorne, on whom she had perversely set her fancy. Hilda's temper was far from equable, and her mother feared to irritate her, lest she should thus lessen the chances of her wishes being fulfilled. She waited anxiously now to hear Hilda's answer.
