Charles Repton had taken no weekends. Charles Repton had sat tight in / London.
The end of that May did not tempt him to move; he was right on to his / business, and never had his silent life been more silent or Maria, Lady / Repton, felt more alone, though she did as she was bid and remained / immovable in her London house, only seeing, when the leisure was / afforded her, her few dear friends (none conspicuous), and once or / twice presiding at a great dinner of her husband's.
