went back to Forty-seven in despair, to comfort herself with a long confidential chat with Clover in which she exhorted her not to let herself be imposed upon.

      “Be good to her, and make her as happy as you can, but don’t feel bound to wait on her, and run her errands. I am sure papa would not wish it; and it will half kill you if you attempt it. Phil, till he gets stronger, is all you can manage. You not only have to nurse him, you know, but to keep him happy. It’s so bad for him to mope. You want all your time to read with him, and take walks and drives; that is, if there are any carriages at St. Helen’s. Don’t let Mrs. Watson seize upon you, Clover. I’m awfully afraid that she means to, and I can see that she is a real old woman of the sea. Once she gets on your back you will never be able to throw her off.”
