Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Peer's Daughters, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel Her so little repose then would Raphael appear before her, and like a living volcano, pour forth the burning floods of passion and persuasion, till this hot simoon of love and sophistry, passing from his heart over hers, left her harassed spirit, faint, gasping, and trembling, on the parched desert of her barren life. But no sooner did Valasquez, mistaking phy sical weakness for moral yielding, attempt to urge her father's helpless state, the utter impossibility of his ever being aware, whether she had disobeyed him or not, than her sense of right, with all its refreshing verdure, sprung up in the midst of that wide waste of thorny impediments; and on this one oasis, her weary spirit sought and found its rest; and hope, the solitary star of life's wilderness, beamed down upon her from that heaven, by which, and in which, its promises can alone be fulfilled.
