Bar�察�and the!a!I would presume to add�察�the matured autumnal

^Mr Kenge�察院�said Allan�察�appearing enlightened all in a moment。
^Excuse me�察 �our time presses。 Do I understand that the whole
estate is found to have been absorbed in costs�拭院�
^Hem� �I believe so�察院�returned Mr Kenge。 ^Mr Vholes�察�what do
you say�拭院�
^I believe so�察院�said Mr Vholes。
^And that thus the suit lapses and melts away�拭院�

^Probably�察院�said Mr Vholes。
^My dearest life�察院 �whispered Allan�察 �this will break Richard¨s
heart� 院�
There was such a shock of apprehension in his face�察 �and he
knew Richard so perfectly�察 �and I too had seen so much of his
gradual decay�察�that what my dear girl had said to me in the fulness
of her foreboding love�察�sounded like a knell in my ears。
^In case you should be wanting Mr C�察 �sir�察院 �said Mr Vholes�察�
coming after us�察 �you¨ll find him in court。 I left him there resting
himself a little。 Good day�察�sir�察�good day�察�Miss Summerson。 ̄ As he
gave me that slowly devouring look of his�察 �while twisting up the
strings of his bag�察�before he hastened with it�察�after Mr Kenge�察�the
benignant shadow of whose conversational presence he seemed
afraid to leave�察 �he gave one gasp as if he had swallowed the last

morsel of this client�察 �and his black buttoned´up unwholesome
figure glided away to the low door at the end of the hall。
^My dear love�察院 �said Allan�察 �leave to me for a little while�察 �the
charge you gave me。 Go home with this intelligence�察�and come to
Ada¨s by´and´by。 ̄
I would not let him take me to a coach�察�but entreated him to go
to Richard without a moment¨s delay�察 �and leave me to do as he
wished。 Hurrying home�察 �I found my Guardian�察 �and told him
gradually with what news I had returned。 ^Little woman�察院�said he�察�
quite unmoved for himself�察 �to have done with the suit on any
terms�察 �is a greater blessing than I had looked for。 But my poor
young cousins� 院�
We talked about them all the morning�察 �and discussed what it
was possible to do。 In the afternoon�察�my Guardian walked with me
to Symond¨s Inn�察�and left me at the door。 I went upstairs。 When
my darling heard my footsteps�察 �she came out into the small
passage and threw her arms round my neck�察 �but she composed
herself directly�察 �and said that Richard had asked for me several
times。 Allan had found him sitting in a corner of the court�察�she told
me�察�like a stone figure。 On being roused�察�he had broken away�察�and
made as if he would have spoken in a fierce voice to the judge。 He
was stopped by his mouth being full of blood�察 �and Allan had
brought him home。
He was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed�察�when I went in。
There were restoratives on the table�察�the room was made as airy as
possible�察�and was darkened�察�and was very orderly and quiet。 Allan
stood behind him�察�watching him gravely。 His face appeared to me
to be quite destitute of colour�察�and�察�now that I saw him without his
seeing me�察�I fully saw�察�for the first time�察�how worn away he was。

But he looked handsomer than I had seen him look for many a
day。
I sat down by his side in silence。 Opening his eyes by´and´by�察�he
said�察�in a weak voice�察�but with his old smile�察 �Dame Durden�察�kiss
me�察�my dear� 院�
It was a great comfort and surprise to me to find him in his low
state cheerful and looking forward。 He was happier�察�he said�察�in our
intended marriage�察 �than he could find words to tell me。 My
husband had been a guardian angel to him and Ada�察 �and he
blessed us both�察�and wished us all the joy that life could yield us。 I
almost felt as if my own heart would have broken�察�when I saw him
take my husband¨s hand�察�and hold it to his breast。
We spoke of the future as much as possible�察�and he said several
times that he must be present at our marriage if he could stand
upon his feet。 Ada would contrive to take him�察�somehow�察�he said。
^Yes�察 �surely�察�dearest Richard� 院 �But as my darling answered him
thus hopefully�察�so serene and beautiful�察�with the help that was to
come to her so near�察�I knew!I knew� �
It was not good for him to talk too much�察 �and when he was
silent�察�we were silent too。 Sitting beside him�察�I made a pretence of
working for my dear�察�as he had always been used to joke about my
being busy。 Ada leaned upon his pillow�察�holding his head upon her
arm。 He dozed often�察�and whenever he awoke without seeing him�察�
said�察�first of all�察 �Where is Woodcourt�拭院�
Evening had come on�察 �when I lifted up my eyes�察 �and saw my
Guardian standing in the little hall。 ^Who is that�察�Dame Durden�拭院�
Richard asked me。 The door was behind him�察�but he had observed
in my face that some one was there。
I looked to Allen for advice�察�and as he nodded ^Yes�察院�bent over

Richard and told him。 My Guardian saw what passed�察�came softly
by me in a moment�察�and laid his hand on Richard¨s。 ^O sir�察院�said
Richard�察 �you are a good man�察 �you are a good man� 院 �and burst
into tears for the first time。
My Guardian�察�the picture of a good man�察�sat down in my place�察�
keeping his hand on Richard¨s。
^My dear Rick�察院�said he�察 �the clouds have cleared away�察�and it
is bright now。 We can see now。 We were all bewildered�察�Rick�察�more
or less。 What matters� �And how are you�察�my dear boy�拭院�
^I am very weak�察 �sir�察�but I hope I shall be stronger。 I have to
begin the world。 ̄
^Ay�察�truly�察�well said� 院�cried my Guardian。
^I will not begin it in the old way now�察院�said Richard with a sad
smile。 ^I have learned a lesson now�察�sir。 It was a hard one�察�but you
shall be assured�察�indeed�察�that I have learned it。 ̄
^Well�察 �well�察院 �said my Guardian�察 �comforting him�察 �well�察 �well�察�
well�察�dear boy� 院�
^I was thinking�察 �sir�察院 �resumed Richard�察 �that there is nothing
on earth I should so much like to see as their house!Dame
Durden¨s and Woodcourt¨s house。 If I could be moved there when
I begin to recover my strength�察�I feel as if I should get well there�察�
sooner than anywhere。 ̄
^Why�察 �so have I been thinking�察 �too�察 �Rick�察院 �said my Guardian�察�
^and our little woman likewise�察�she and I have been talking of it�察�
this very day。 I dare say her husband won¨t object。 What do you
think�拭院�
Richard smiled�察�and lifted up his arm to touch him�察�as he stood
behind the head of his couch。
^I say nothing of Ada�察院 �said Richard�察 �but I think of her�察 �and

have thought of her very much。 Look at her� �see her here�察 �sir�察�
bending over this pillow when she has so much need to rest upon
it herself�察�my dear love�察�my poor girl� 院�
He clasped her in his arms�察�and none of us spoke。 He gradually
released her�察 �and she looked upon us�察�and looked up to Heaven�察�
and moved her lips。
^When I get down to Bleak House�察院�said Richard�察 �I shall have
much to tell you�察�sir�察�and you will have much to show me。 You will
go�察�won¨t you�拭院�
^Undoubtedly�察�dear Rick。 ̄
^Thank you�察�like you like you�察院�said Richard。 ^But it¨s all like
you。 They have been telling me how you planned it�察�and how you
remembered all Esther¨s familiar tastes and ways。 It will be like
coming to the old Bleak House again。 ̄
^And you will come there too�察�I hope�察�Rick。 I am a solitary man
now�察�you know�察�and it will be a charity to come to me。 A charity to
come to me�察�my love� 院�he repeated to Ada�察�as he gently passed his
hand over her golden hair�察�and put a lock of it to his lips。 ��I think
he vowed within himself to cherish her if she were left alone。��
^It was all a troubled dream�拭院�said Richard�察�clasping both my
Guardian¨s hands eagerly。
^Nothing more�察�Rick�察�nothing more。 ̄
