Meantime
a
month
was
gone
.
Diana
and
Mary
were
soon
to
leave
Moor
House
,
and
return
to
the
far
different
life
and
scene
which
awaited
them
,
as
governesses
in
a
large
,
fashionable
,
south-of-England
city
,
where
each
held
a
situation
in
families
by
whose
wealthy
and
haughty
members
they
were
regarded
only
as
humble
dependants
,
and
who
neither
knew
nor
sought
out
their
innate
excellences
,
and
appreciated
only
their
acquired
accomplishments
as
they
appreciated
the
skill
of
their
cook
or
the
taste
of
their
waiting-woman
.
Mr.
St.
John
had
said
nothing
to
me
yet
about
the
employment
he
had
promised
to
obtain
for
me
;
yet
it
became
urgent
that
I
should
have
a
vocation
of
some
kind
.
One
morning
,
being
left
alone
with
him
a
few
minutes
in
the
parlour
,
I
ventured
to
approach
the
window-recess
--
which
his
table
,
chair
,
and
desk
consecrated
as
a
kind
of
study
--
and
I
was
going
to
speak
,
though
not
very
well
knowing
in
what
words
to
frame
my
inquiry
--
for
it
is
at
all
times
difficult
to
break
the
ice
of
reserve
glassing
over
such
natures
as
his
--
when
he
saved
me
the
trouble
by
being
the
first
to
commence
a
dialogue
.
Looking
up
as
I
drew
near
--
"
You
have
a
question
to
ask
of
me
?
"
he
said
.
"
Yes
;
I
wish
to
know
whether
you
have
heard
of
any
service
I
can
offer
myself
to
undertake
?

"
I
found
or
devised
something
for
you
three
weeks
ago
;
but
as
you
seemed
both
useful
and
happy
here
--
as
my
sisters
had
evidently
become
attached
to
you
,
and
your
society
gave
them
unusual
pleasure
--
I
deemed
it
inexpedient
to
break
in
on
your
mutual
comfort
till
their
approaching
departure
from
Marsh
End
should
render
yours
necessary
.
"
"
And
they
will
go
in
three
days
now
?
"
I
said
.
"
Yes
;
and
when
they
go
,
I
shall
return
to
the
parsonage
at
Morton
:
Hannah
will
accompany
me
;
and
this
old
house
will
be
shut
up
.
"
I
waited
a
few
moments
,
expecting
he
would
go
on
with
the
subject
first
broached
:
but
he
seemed
to
have
entered
another
train
of
reflection
:
his
look
denoted
abstraction
from
me
and
my
business
.
I
was
obliged
to
recall
him
to
a
theme
which
was
of
necessity
one
of
close
and
anxious
interest
to
me
.

"
What
is
the
employment
you
had
in
view
,
Mr.
Rivers
?
I
hope
this
delay
will
not
have
increased
the
difficulty
of
securing
it
.
"
"
Oh
,
no
;
since
it
is
an
employment
which
depends
only
on
me
to
give
,
and
you
to
accept
.
"
He
again
paused
:
there
seemed
a
reluctance
to
continue
.
I
grew
impatient
:
a
restless
movement
or
two
,
and
an
eager
and
exacting
glance
fastened
on
his
face
,
conveyed
the
feeling
to
him
as
effectually
as
words
could
have
done
,
and
with
less
trouble
.
