the discovery that he had been deceived into a
scandalous fraud, and ruined his family. This
highly gifted and distinguished man, so simple
and unassuming in his manners, who never
coveted for himself any of the amusements that
money can procure, had fallen a victim to a
swindle, which was quite contrary to his whole
character and disposition.
This news threw Sonia on her bed with a
violent nervous fever, from which she rose as if
the nerve of her life had been cut asunder.
Remorse at having left her husband, instead of
remaining with him and supporting him,—though
this would have been to condemn herself to an
almost unendurable struggle,—tormented her
with all the bitterness of the irreparable. During
this illness and mental struggle her appearance
had lost its freshness, she had become many
years older, her fine complexion was gone, and
a deep wrinkle had settled between her brows,
where it remained ever after.
