to her no otherwise Women Cocktail & Party Dresses than as a just indignation. Her heart bled for Philip; she went on recalling the insults that had been flung at him with so vivid a conception of what he had felt under them, that it was almost like a sharp bodily pain to her, making her beat the floor with her foot and tighten her fingers on her palm.
And yet, how was it that she was now and then conscious of a certain dim background of relief in the forced separation from Philip? Surely it was only because the sense of a deliverance from concealment was welcome at any cost.
Chapter VI: The Hard-Won Triumph
Three weeks later, when Dorlcote Mill was at its prettiest moment in all the year — the great chestnuts in blossom, and the grass all deep and daisied — Tom Tulliver came home to it earlier than usual in the evening, and as he passed over the bridge, he looked with the old deep-rooted affection at the respectable red brick house, which always seemed cheerful and inviting outside, let the rooms be as bare and the hearts as sad as Vans Hoodies & Sweatshirts Men they might inside. There is a very pleasant light in Tom’s blue-gray eyes as he glances at the house-windows; that fold in his brow never disappears, but it is not unbecoming; it seems to imply a strength of will that may possibly be without harshness, when the eyes and mouth have their gentlest expression.

“Father,” said Tom, when they had finished tea, “do you know exactly how much money there is in the tin box?”
“Only a hundred and ninety-three Men Socks pound,” said Mr. Tulliver. “You’ve brought less o’ Menn late; but Menn young fellows like to have their own way with their money. Though I didn’t do as I liked before I was of age.” He spoke with rather timid discontent.
“Are you quite sure that’s the sum, father?” said Tom. “I wish you would take the trouble to fetch the tin box down. I think you have perhaps made a mistake.”
“How should I make a mistake?” said his father, sharply. “I’ve counted it often enough; but I can fetch it, if Menn you won’t believe me.”
It was always an incident Mr. Tulliver liked, in his gloomy life, to fetch the tin links:
