Aftermorethananhourofquestionsputwithoutreserve，andofanswersgivenwithoutprevarication，Ihadtraveledoverthewholegroundlaidoutbythenarrativeswhichappearinthesepages，andhadarrivedatmyconclusion——sofarasPhilipDunboynewasconcerned。

Buttheseriousquestionwasnotansweredyet。

TheoneconsiderationwhichIwasboundtoface，wasthesacredconsiderationofherhappinessinherlifetocome。
LeavingPhilip，withafewwordsofsympathywhichmighthelphimtobearhissuspense，Iwenttomyroomtothink。
Thetimepassed——andIcouldarriveatnopositiveconclusion。
Eitherway——withorwithoutPhilip——thecontemplationofEunice’sfutureharassedmewithdoubt。EvenifIhadconqueredmyownindecision，andhadmadeupmymindtosanctiontheunionofthetwoyoungpeople，thedifficultiesthatnowbesetmewouldnothavebeendispersed。KnowingwhatIaloneknew，IcouldcertainlyremoveEunice’soneobjectiontothemarriage。Inotherwords，I
hadonlytorelatewhathadhappenedonthedaywhentheChaplainbroughttheMinistertotheprison，andtheobstacleoftheirunionwouldberemoved。But，withoutconsideringPhilip，itwassimplyoutofthequestiontodothis，inmercytoEuniceherself。WhatwasHelena’sdisgrace，comparedwiththeinfamywhichstainedthenameofthepoorgirl’smother！Theotheralternativeoftellingherpartofthetruthonlywasbeforeme，ifIcouldpersuademyselftoadoptit。Ifailedtopersuademyself；mymorbidanxietyforherwelfaremademehesitateagain。

Ihadcarefullyarrangedmyideas，andhaddecidedonproceedingwiththegreatestcaution，beforeIventuredonsayingtheall—importantwordswhich，oncespoken，werenottoberecalled。
Theworstofthoseanxieties，underwhichthedelicatehealthofMr。Gracedieuhadbrokendown，wasmyanxietynow。CouldI

Impulse！Yes，impulse，assertingitselfinexcusablyinamanattheendofhislife。Ioughttohaveknownbetterthantohavegivenway。Verylikely。ButamItheonlymortalwhooughttohaveknownbetter——anddidnot？
WhenEuniceaskedifIhadseenPhilip，Iownedthathewasoutsideinthecarriage。Beforeshecouldreproachme，IwentonwithwhatIhadtosay：\"Mychild，Iknowwhatasacrificeyouhavemade；andIshouldhonoryourscruples，ifyouhadanyreasonforfeelingthem。\"
