3 That eye of hers, that voice stirred every antipathy I had.
4 But now, though her voice was still sweet, I found in its melody an indescribable sadness.
5 The tumult of cessation from lessons was already breaking forth, but it sank at her voice.

16 I wiped my tears and hushed my sobs, fearful lest any sign of violent grief might waken a preternatural voice to comfort me, or elicit from the gloom some haloed face, bending over me with strange pity.
17 Mrs. Reed was rather a stout woman; but, on hearing this strange and audacious declaration, she ran nimbly up the stair, swept me like a whirlwind into the nursery, and crushing me down on the edge of my crib, dared me in an emphatic voice to rise from that place, or utter one syllable during the remainder of the day.
