“She'd never have allowed herself to be held by anything as mundane as a few bars and a reinforced door”

“She'd become a governess. It was one of the few jobs a known lady could do.And she'd taken to it well. She'd sworn that if she did indeed ever findherself dancing on rooftops with chimney sweeps she'd beat herself to death with her own umbrella.”

“...She'd drawn the moment of her death.No. NO. She'd DRAWN herself to death.”
