Excerpt from The Hand of Ethelberta, Vol. 2 of 2: A Comedy in Chapters The question of Neigh or no Neigh liad readied a pitch of insistence which no longer permitted dallying, even by a popular beauty. His character was becoming defined to Ethelberta as something very differently composed from that of her first imagining. She had set him down to be a man whose habitual inexcitability owed nothing to self-repression, but stood as the natural uncoated margin of the mass within. As were the cliffs of her new domain, so were the quarries, she had thought. Neigh's urban torpor, she said, might have been in the first instance produced by art, but, were it thus, it had gone so far as to permeate rather than encrust him.
