Metaphor in Context
P. S. Lady Juliana has appeared, for some days past, much graver than usual,--she declines any little service from me, tho' of ever so trifling a nature, and seems cautiously to avoid entering into any conversation with me, tho' in a mixed company. Ah, Stanley! I have no hopes of making any impression on her heart, either at Delville, or in Berkeley-square.
(I, p. 47)
