Two on a Tower Chapter 21

from The Thomas Hardy Library · host Thomas Hardy

In which the secret union between Swithin and Lady Constantine is cautiously preserved under the veil of social restraint, their rare meetings furtive and replete with whispered confidences within the neglected chambers of a stately yet decaying house. Their whispered conversation weaves together the practical concerns of fortune and inheritance with a gentle turning towards the solemn rites of church, reflecting the uneasy balance between passion and propriety in their lives.
