Excerpt from Matrimony, Vol. 3 of 3

These words of cold comfort rang continually in Claud's ears, and effectually robbed other and more encouraging utterances of their sweet ness. There were days when it was pain and grief to him to hear his play mentioned - when he would escape into the streets, and wander hither and thither for hours with no other object than to be alone. But his spirits rose as the limit of uncertainty drew nearer; some alterations in the text, demanded at the last moment by Mdlle. Thomery, an imperious lady, afforded him employment; a full-dress rehearsal, which passed off without any con tretemps, served to cheer him; and when the supreme moment came, he was able, with some creditable Show Of outward composure, to enter the box in which his wife, Varinka and Gene vieve, attended by Miss Potts, had already taken their places.
