accuracy for an account of it。
She stood on very high ground indeed; he said; at first refusing to
hear anything that he had to say on the matter。 〃The foolish young
man;〃 she declared; 〃was below her anger and below her contempt。〃
〃He is not the first Irishman that has been made indiscreet by
beauty;〃 said Mackinnon。
〃A truce to that;〃 she replied; waving her hand with an air of
assumed majesty。 〃The incident; contemptible as it is; has been
unpleasant to me。 It will necessitate my withdrawal from Rome。〃
〃Oh; no; Mrs。 Talboys; that will be making too much of him。〃
〃The greatest hero that lives;〃 she answered; 〃may have his house
made uninhabitable by a very small insect。〃 Mackinnon swore that
those were her own words。 Consequently a sobriquet was attached to
O'Brien of which he by no means approved。 And from that day we
always called Mrs。 Talboys 〃the hero。〃
Mackinnon prevailed at last with her; and she did not leave Rome。
She was even induced to send a message to O'Brien; conveying her
forgiveness。 They shook hands together with great eclat in Mrs。
Mackinnon's drawing…room; but I do not suppose that she ever again
offered to him sympathy on the score of his matrimonial troubles。
