Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


All at once, quick rang the bell--quick, but not loud--a cautious
tinkle--a sort of warning metal whisper. Rosine darted from her
cabinet and ran to open. The person she admitted stood with her two
minutes in parley: there seemed a demur, a delay. Rosine came to the
garden door, lamp in hand; she stood on the steps, lifting her lamp,
looking round vaguely.


"Quel conte!" she cried, with a coquettish laugh. "Personne n'y a
ete."
