Hylas and the Nymphs

It's very unfortunate,' said my aunt. 'I don't know what to do, Trot.' ¡¡¡¡'It does happen unfortunately,' said Mr. Wickfield. 'But I'll tell you what you can do, Miss Trotwood.' ¡¡¡¡'What's that?' inquired my aunt. ¡¡¡¡'Leave your nephew here, for the present. He's a quiet fellow. He won't disturb me at all. It's a capital house for study. As quiet as a monastery, and almost as roomy. Leave him here.' ¡¡¡¡My aunt evidently liked the offer, though she was delicate of accepting it.
o did I. 'Come, Miss Trotwood,' said Mr. Wickfield. 'This is the way out of the difficulty. It's only a temporary arrangement, you know. If it don't act well, or don't quite accord with our mutual convenience, he can easily go to the right-about. There will be time to find some better place for him in the meanwhile. You had better determine to leave him here for the present
