Rachel Ray, Vol. II of II by Anthony Trollope, Fiction, Literary

¿And that was all that was then said about Luke even between Rachel and her mother. How could they speak about him? Mrs. Ray also believed that he would be no more seen in Baslehurst; and Rachel was well aware that such was her mother's belief, although it had never been expressed. What could be said between them now, -- or ever afterwards, -- unless, indeed, Rowan should take some steps to make it necessary that his doings should be discussed?
The Tuesday passed and the Wednesday, without any sign from the young man; and during these two sad days nothing was said at the cottage. On that Wednesday his name was absolutely not mentioned between them, although each of them was thinking of him throughout the day.
