1"There's a tigress!" exclaimed Mrs. Linton, setting her free, and shaking her hand with pain. "Begone, for God's sake,
2and hide your vixen face! How foolish to reveal those talons to him. Can't you fancy the conclusions he'll draw? Look,
3Heathcliff! they are instruments that will do execution--you must beware of your eyes." "I'd wrench them off her
4fingers, if they ever menaced me," he answered, brutally, when the door had closed after her. "But what did you mean by
5teasing the creature in that manner, Cathy? You were not speaking the truth, were you?" "I assure you I was," she
6returned. "She has been dying for your sake several weeks, and raving about you this morning, and pouring forth a deluge
7of abuse, because I represented your failings in a plain light, for the purpose of mitigating her adoration. But don't
8notice it further: I wished to punish her sauciness, that's all. I like her too well, my dear Heathcliff, to let you
9absolutely seize and devour her up." "And I like her too ill to attempt it," said he, "except in a very ghoulish
10fashion. You'd hear of odd things if I lived alone with that mawkish, waxen face: the most ordinary would be painting on
11its white the colours of the rainbow, and turning the blue eyes black, every day or two: they detestably resemble
12Linton's." "Delectably!" observed Catherine. "They are dove's eyes--angel's!" "She's her brother's heir, is she not?" he
13asked, after a brief silence. "I should be sorry to think so," returned his companion. "Half a dozen nephews shall erase
14her title, please heaven! Abstract your mind from the subject at present: you are too prone to covet your neighbour's
15goods; remember this neighbour's goods are mine." "If they were mine, they would be none the less that," said
16Heathcliff; "but though Isabella Linton may be silly, she is scarcely mad; and, in short, we'll dismiss the matter, as
17you advise." From their tongues they did dismiss it; and Catherine, probably, from her thoughts. The other, I felt
18certain, recalled it often in the course of the evening. I saw him smile to himself--grin rather--and lapse into ominous
19musing whenever Mrs. Linton had occasion to be absent from the apartment. I determined to watch his movements. My heart
20invariably cleaved to the master's, in preference to Catherine's side: with reason I imagined, for he was kind, and
21trustful, and honourable; and she--she could not be called the opposite, yet she seemed to allow herself such wide
22latitude, that I had little faith in her principles, and still less sympathy for her feelings. I wanted something to
23happen which might have the effect of freeing both Wuthering Heights and the Grange of Mr. Heathcliff, quietly; leaving
24us as we had been prior to his advent. His visits were a continual nightmare to me; and, I suspected, to my master also.
25His abode at the Heights was an oppression past explaining. I felt that God had forsaken the stray sheep there to its
26own wicked wanderings, and an evil beast prowled between it and the fold, waiting his time to spring and destroy.
