“Sir Richard,” said Calantha, “you may spare yourself and me this
unkindness,—I leave this house immediately,—I leave your family from
this hour; and I will die in the very streets sooner than remain here. Take
this,” she said throwing the marriage ring from her hand; “and tell your
nephew I never will see him more:—tell him if it is your pleasure that I
love another, and had rather be a slave in his service, than Lord
Avondale’s wife. I ever hated that name, and now I consider it with
abhorrence.” “Your Ladyship’s words are big and mighty,” cried Sir
Richard; “but while this goodly arm has a sinew and this most excellent
door has a key you shall not stir from hence.” As he yet spoke, he
advanced to the door; but she, darting before him, with a celerity he had
not expected, left him, exclaiming as she went, “you have driven me to
this: tell them you have done it”....
In vain the Admiral urged every one he met to pursue Calantha. The
moment had been seized, and no power can withstand, no after attempt
can regain the one favourable moment that is thus snatched from fate.
The castle presented a scene of the utmost confusion and distress. Miss
Seymour was indignant; the servants were in commotion; the greatest
publicity was given to the event from the ill judged indiscretion of the
Admiral. Mrs. Seymour alone, was kept in ignorance; the Duke coldly, in
reply to the enquiry of what was to be done, affirmed that no step should
be taken unless, of herself, the unhappy Calantha returned to seek the
pardon and protection of those friends whom she had so rashly
abandoned, and so cruelly misused. Yet, notwithstanding the prohibition
every place was searched, every measure to save was thought of, and all
without success.
Sir Richard then set down with Annabel in his arms, and the little
boy by his side, crying more piteously than the nurse who stood opposite
encreasing the general disturbance, by her loud and ill-timed
lamentations. “If my Lord had not been the best of husbands, there
would have been some excuse for my Lady.” “None Nurse—none
whatever;” sobbed forth Sir Richard, in a voice scarcely audible,
between passion and vexation. “She was a good mother, poor Lady: that
I will say for her.” “She was a d——d wife though,” cried Sir Richard;
“and that I must say for her.” After which, the children joining, the cries
and sobs were renewed by the nurse, and Sir Richard, with more
violence than at first. “I never thought it would have come to this,” said
the nurse, first recovering. “Lord ma’am, I knew it would end ill, when I
saw those d——d green ribbands”.... “Who would have thought such a
pretty looking gentleman would have turned out such a villain!” “He is
no gentleman at all,” said Sir Richard angrily. “He is a rebel, an outcast.
Shame upon him.” And then again the nurse’s cries checked his anger,
and he wept more audibly than before.
“Would you believe it, after all your kindness,” said Sophia, entering
her mother’s room. “Calantha is gone.” At the words “she’s gone,” Mrs.
Seymour fainted; nor did she for some time recover; but with returning
sense, when she saw not Calantha, when asking repeatedly for her, she
received evasive answers; terror again overcame her—she was deeply
and violently agitated. She sent for the children; she clasped them to her
bosom. They smiled upon her; and that look, was a pang beyond all
others of bitterness. The Admiral, in tears, approached her; lamented his
interference; yet spoke with just severity of the offender. “If I know her
heart, she will yet return,” said Mrs. Seymour. “She will never more
return,” replied Sophia. “How indeed will she dare appear, after such a
public avowal of her sentiments—such a flagrant breach of every sacred
duty. Oh, there is no excuse for the mother who thus abandons her
children—for the wife who stamps dishonour on a husband’s fame—for
the child that dares to disobey a father’s sacred will?” “Sophia beware.
Judge not of others—judge not; for the hour of temptation may come to
all. Oh judge her not,” said Mrs. Seymour, weeping bitterly; “for she will
yet return.”
