See Wolsey's soliloquy, and the following scene with Cromwell,
where,--instead of the metre of Shakspeare, whose secret is, that the
thought constructs the tune, so that reading for the sense will best
bring out the rhythm,--here the lines are
constructed
on a given tune,
and the verse has even a trace of pulpit eloquence.

With the turn of the Young Hegelians to a

You’ve
said it>’
This went on for about twenty minutes At first Dorothy attempted to
argue, but she saw Mrs Creevy angrily shaking her head at her over the
buffalo-like man’s shoulder, which she rightly took as a signal to be quiet By
A Clergyman's Daughter 389
the time the parents had finished they had reduced Dorothy very nearly to
tears, and after this they made ready to go But Mrs Creevy stopped them
‘ Just a minute, ladies and gentlemen,’ she said ‘Now that you’ve all had
your say-and I’m sure I’m most glad to give you the opportumty-I’d just like
to say a little something on my own account Just to make things clear, in case
any of you might think I was to blame for this nasty business that’s happened
And you stay here too, Miss Millborough 1 ’ she added
She turned on Dorothy, and, m front of the parents, gave her a venomous
‘talking to’ which lasted upwards of ten minutes The burden of it all was that
Dorothy had brought these dirty books into the house behind her back, that it
was monstrous treachery and ingratitude, and that if anything like it happened
again, out Dorothy would go with a week’s wages m her pocket She rubbed it
in and in and in Phrases like ‘girl that I’ve taken into my house’, ‘eating my
bread’, and even ‘living on my charity’, recurred over and over again The
parents sat round watching, and m their crass faces-faces not harsh or evil,
only blunted by ignorance and mean virtues-you could see a solemn approval,
a solemn pleasure in the spectacle of sm rebuked Dorothy understood this,
she understood that it was necessary that Mrs Creevy should give her her
‘talking to’ m front of the parents, so that they might feel that they were gettmg
their money’s worth and be satisfied But still, as the stream of mean, cruel
reprimand went on and on, such anger rose m her heart that she could with
pleasure have stood up and struck Mrs Creevy across the face Again and again
she thought, ‘I won’t stand it, I won’t stand it any longer 1 I’ll tell her what I
think of her and then walk straight out of the house 1 ’ But she did nothing of the
kind She saw with dreadful clarity the helplessness of her position Whatever
happened,
whatever
insults it meant swallowing, she had got to keep her job
So she sat still, with pink humiliated face, amid the circle of parents, and
presently her anger turned to misery, and she realized that she was going to
begin crying if she did not struggle to prevent it But she realized, too, that if
she began crying it would be the last straw and the parents would demand her
dismissal To stop herself, she dug her nails so hard into the palms that
afterwards she found that she had drawn a few drops of blood
Presently the ‘talking to’ wore itself out m assurances from Mrs Creevy that
this should never happen again and that the offending Shakespeares should be
burnt immediately The parents were now satisfied Dorothy had had her
lesson and would doubtless profit by it, they did not bear her any malice and
were not conscious of having humiliated her They said good-bye to Mrs
Creevy, said good-bye rather more coldly to Dorothy, and departed Dorothy
also rose to go, but Mrs Creevy signed to her to stay where she was
‘Just you wait a minute,’ she said ominously as the parents left the room ‘I
haven’t finished yet, not by a long way I haven’t ’
Dorothy sat down again She felt very weak at the knees, and nearer to tears
than ever Mrs Creevy, having shown the parents out by the front door, came
back with a bowl of water and threw it over the fire-for where was the sense of
burning good coals after the parents had gone^ Dorothy supposed that the
‘talking to’ was going to begin afresh.
