I have, my dear fellow, every desire and ambition to be married, but the thing hangs fire ; there is no Prometheus. ' ' Well, well ; you will have it one day, ' he concluded, and fell to his raptures again. I let him run on, scarcely heeding his enthusiasms, THE PORTRAIT IN THE INN 135 for my thoughts had turned inwards upon my- self and my own flat life. I had but newly recovered fr...om a long illness, and had come back to the world with no particular zest for living. The convalescence to which in my extremest hours of pain I had looked forward with delight had been fulfilled drearily enough ; and now that once more I had the liberty of the streets the occupations and interest of the prospect seemed stale and empty.
