Bute saw that she must get her patient into cheerful spirits and health before she could hope to attain the pious object which she had in view.
Whither to take her was the next puzzle.
The only place where she is not likely to meet those odious Rawdons is at church, and that won't amuse her, Mrs.
Bute justly felt.
We must go and visit our beautiful suburbs of London," she then thought.
I hear they are the most picturesque in the world"; and so she had a sudden interest for Hampstead, and Hornsey, and found that Dulwich had great charms for her, and getting her victim into her carriage, drove her to those rustic spots, beguiling the little journeys with conversations about Rawdon and his wife, and telling every story to the old lady which could add to her indignation against this pair of reprobates.
Perhaps Mrs.
Bute pulled the string unnecessarily tight.
For though she worked up Miss Crawley to a proper dislike of her disobedient nephew, the invalid had a great hatred and secret terror of her victimizer, and panted to escape from her.
After a brief space, she rebelled against Highgate and Hornsey utterly.
