Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


She laid it on his knee. He took it up and read it through; his hand
shaking, his eyes glistening meantime.


He re-folded it, and viewed the writer with a strange, tender,
mournful amaze.


"Can _she_ write so--the little thing that stood at my knee but
yesterday? Can she feel so?"


"Papa, is it wrong? Does it pain you?"
