It was, perhaps, the natural consequence of a long and tiring and exciting day
that Ann Veronica should pass a broken and distressful night, a night in which
the noble and self-subduing resolutions of Canongate displayed themselves for

about Ann Veronica’s own outlook upon life. ‘You
should rather be arresting the girl and throwing her into gaol for attempted
murder. Manning, I do not really want to marry. Somewhere, where we

cloak, and being about the size of the rightful owner, presented a very tolerable
resemblance to her.
