Ysiognomist. Nature, he knows, has a language of her own, which she uses
with strict veracity, and he considers himself an adept in the language.
Nature has written out his bride's character for him in those exquisite
lines of cheek and lip and chin, in those eyelids delicate as petals, in
those long lashes curled like the stamen of a flower, in the dark liquid
depths of those wonderful eyes. How she will dote on her children! She
is almost a child herself, and the little pink round things will hang
about her like florets round the central flower; and the husband will
look on, smiling benignly, able, whenever he chooses, to withdraw into
the sanctuary of his wisdom, towards which his sweet wife will look
reverently, and never lift the curtain. It is a marriage such as they
made in the golden age, when the men were all wise and majestic and the
women all lovely and loving. It was very much in this way that our
friend Adam Bede thought about Hetty; only he put his thoughts into
different words. If ever she behaved with cold vanity towards him, he
said to himself it is only because she doesn't love me well enough; and
he was sure that her love, whenever she gave it, would be the most

deficient in penetration, pray ask yourself if you were ever predisposed
to believe evil of any pretty woman--if you ever COULD, without hard
head-breaking demonstration, believe evil of the ONE supremely pretty
woman who has bewitched you. No: people who love downy peaches are apt
not to think of the stone, and sometimes jar their teeth terribly
against it. Arthur Donnithorne, too, had the same sort of notion about
Hetty, so far as he had thought of her nature of all. He felt sure she
was a dear, affectionate, good little thing. The man who awakes the
wondering tremulous passion of a young girl always thinks her
affectionate; and if he chances to look forward to future years,
probably imagines himself being virtuously tender to her, because the
poor thing is so clingingly fond of him. God made these dear women
so--and it is a convenient arrangement in case of sickness. After all, I
believe the wisest of us must be begu
