'' `` My dear mademoiselle , I did not venture to make you acquainted with what I knew would , to a person of your sensitive mind , be the cause of your quitting the protection of Lady R -- without having considered whether an equivalent could not be offered to you ; and I am happy to say that I can offer you a home , and I trust comfort and consideration , if you will accept of them . The fact is , that had I known that you had any idea of quitting Madame Bathurst , I should have made the offer then -- now I do so with all sincerity ; -- but at present you are agitated and annoyed , and I will say no more . If I send the carriage for you to-morrow at two o'clock , will you do me the favour to come and see me ? I would call upon you , but of course the presence of Lady R -- would be a check to our free converse . Say , my dear , will you come ? '' I replied in the affirmative , and Lady M -- then rose , and giving me her arm , we walked back to the bench which I had left , where I found Lady R -- in a hot dispute with a member of Parliament .
