Dorothea seldom left home without her husband, but she did occasionally drive into Middlemarch alone, on little errands of shopping or charity such as occur to every lady of any wealth when she lives within three mi-les of a town. Two days after that scene in the Yew-tree Walk, she determined to use such an opportunity in or-der if possible to see Lydgate, and learn from him whet-her her husband had really felt any depressing change of symptoms which he was concealing from her, and whet-her he had insisted on knowing the utmost about himself. She felt almost guilty in asking for knowledge about him from another, but the dread of being without it-the dread of that ignorance which would make her unjust or hard-overcame every scruple.
