Excerpt from The Heriots, Vol. 3 of 3
She could not diagnose, she could not prescribe for it. Olivia's light-heartedness appeared to be deserting her at the very moment when joy, confidence, triumph, ought, as She judged, to be at their highest pitch. She had rallied Olivia sometimes on her melancholy moods, as accidents which naturally befall people who are excessively in love, the mere reaction of overwrought sentiment. Lovers are traditionally a moody, wayward race, who vex their own and each other's souls with groundless alarms, unjust suspicions, imaginary grievances. Comfort, tranquillity, happiness, come only with marriage. And what marriage could pro mise more happily, more auspiciously than Olivia's?

Excerpt from The Heriots, Vol. 3 of 3
'I would that you were all to me,
You that are just so much, no more:
Nor yours nor mine, nor slave nor free!
Where does the fault lie? What the core
O' the wound, since wound must be?'
De Renzi's courtship was not just now a bed of roses to him. He had begun to feel the first chill gusts of the approaching storm. He was feeling already the inconveniences of an unworldly marriage - his father's cynical disapproval, his mother's ill-concealed disappointment, his sisters' uncomplimentary silence about their future relation, the fancied sneers of kind friends at so interesting a lapse into the sentimental.
