She did not hear my broken sentences; she asked nomore, but the dumb confirmation which my sad looks had given that onefact, that her curse rested on her own daughter's child. The fear grewon me lest she should die in her strife of body and soul; and thenmight not Lucy remain under the spell as long as she lived? Even at this moment, I saw Lucy coming through the woodland path thatled to Bridget's cottage; Mistress Clarke was with her: I felt at myheart that it was she, by the balmy peace which... the look of her sentover me, as she slowly advanced, a glad surprise shining out of hersoft quiet eyes. That was as her gaze met mine. As her looks fell onthe woman lying stiff, convulsed on the earth, they became full oftender pity; and she came forward to try and lift her up. Seatingherself on the turf, she took Bridget's head into her lap; and, withgentle touches, she arranged the dishevelled grey hair streaming thickand wild from beneath her mutch. 'God help her!' murmured Lucy. 'How she suffers!' At her desire we sought for water; but when we returned, Bridget hadrecovered her wandering senses, and was kneeling with clasped handsbefore Lucy, gazing at that sweet sad face as though her troublednature drank in health and peace from every moment's contemplation.
