The light of the paraffin lamp fell on Phillotson's face--pale and wretched by contrast with his friend's, who had a cool, practical look. They had been schoolmates in boyhood, and fellow-students at Wintoncester Training College, many years before this time. ¡¡¡¡ "Glad to see you, Dick! But you don't look well? Nothing the matter?" ¡¡¡¡ Phillotson advanced without replying, and Gillingham closed the cupboard and pulled up beside his visitor. ¡¡¡¡ "Why you haven't been here--let me see--since you were married? I called, you know, but you were out; and upon my word it is such a climb after dark that I have been waiting till the days are longer before

You don't mean--anything wrong between you and Mrs. Phillotson?" ¡¡¡¡ "I do.... My wretched state is that I've a wife I love who not only does not love me, but--but Well, I won't say. I know her feeling! I should prefer hatred from her!" ¡¡¡¡ "Ssh!"
