    interval I had undergone a transforming process; that my mind had put off all of it had borrowed of Miss Temple – or rather‚ that she had taken with her the serene atmosphere I had been breathing in her vicinity – and that now I was left in my natural element‚ and beginning to feel the stirring of old emotions. It did not seem as if a prop were withdrawn‚ but rather as if a motive were gone: it was not the power to be tranquil which had failed me‚ but the reason for tranquility was no more. My world had
