1"In that case I'll take measures to secure you, woman!" exclaimed Heathcliff; "you shall not leave Wuthering Heights
2till to-morrow morning. It is a foolish story to assert that Catherine could not bear to see me; and as to surprising
3her, I don't desire it: you must prepare her--ask her if I may come. You say she never mentions my name, and that I am
4never mentioned to her. To whom should she mention me if I am a forbidden topic in the house? She thinks you are all
5spies for her husband. Oh, I've no doubt she's in hell among you! I guess by her silence, as much as anything, what she
6feels. You say she is often restless, and anxious-looking: is that a proof of tranquillity? You talk of her mind being
7unsettled. How the devil could it be otherwise in her frightful isolation? And that insipid, paltry creature attending
8her from duty and humanity! From pity and charity! He might as well plant an oak in a flower-pot, and expect it to
9thrive, as imagine he can restore her to vigour in the soil of his shallow cares! Let us settle it at once: will you
10stay here, and am I to fight my way to Catherine over Linton and his footman? Or will you be my friend, as you have been
11hitherto, and do what I request? Decide! because there is no reason for my lingering another minute, if you persist in
12your stubborn ill-nature!" Well, Mr. Lockwood, I argued and complained, and flatly refused him fifty times; but in the
13long run he forced me to an agreement. I engaged to carry a letter from him to my mistress; and should she consent, I
14promised to let him have intelligence of Linton's next absence from home, when he might come, and get in as he was able:
15I wouldn't be there, and my fellow-servants should be equally out of the way. Was it right or wrong? I fear it was
16wrong, though expedient. I thought I prevented another explosion by my compliance; and I thought, too, it might create a
17favourable crisis in Catherine's mental illness: and then I remembered Mr. Edgar's stern rebuke of my carrying tales;
18and I tried to smooth away all disquietude on the subject, by affirming, with frequent iteration, that that betrayal of
19trust, if it merited so harsh an appellation, should be the last. Notwithstanding, my journey homeward was sadder than
20my journey thither; and many misgivings I had, ere I could prevail on myself to put the missive into Mrs. Linton's hand.
21But here is Kenneth; I'll go down, and tell him how much better you are. My history is dree, as we say, and will serve
22to while away another morning. Dree, and dreary! I reflected as the good woman descended to receive the doctor: and not
23exactly of the kind which I should have chosen to amuse me. But never mind! I'll extract wholesome medicines from Mrs.
24Dean's bitter herbs; and firstly, let me beware of the fascination that lurks in Catherine Heathcliff's brilliant eyes.
25I should be in a curious taking if I surrendered my heart to that young person, and the daughter turned out a second
26edition of the mother.
