Excerpt from A Statesman's Love, Vol. 2 of 3 It was mid-winter now. The snow lay thickly on the whole country - frozen hard - and I induced Fernie to come with me to the farm, where we were heartily welcomed as we took my son - Rohan Clifford, as he was named - to be the theme of praise and wonderment to the womenfolk. "You should see mine," said Fernie, earnestly and wistfully, in a lull of the praises. "We've none far to go to see a son of Verney Clifford's," said Elizabeth, who hated him, as did all the countryfolk about. And it was true. "Leave the room, woman," said M'Causland sternly, and Elizabeth slunk out ashamed of her freedom, which was not meant for the unhappy young lady, as I told Fernie on our homeward way.
