Elliot was imparting a new stitch in knitting to Mrs. Already, at the age of thirty-five, her cheeks were whitening as her mother's had whitened, but for her there would be no memories of Indian suns and Indian rivers, and clamor of children in a nursery; she would have very little of substance to think about when she sat, as Lady Otway now sat, knitting white wool, with her eyes fixed almost perpetually upon the same embroidered bird upon the same fire-screen. However, she wasn't hurt, and was soon up again: the Sheep went on with her knitting all the while, just as if nothing had happened. |
