Jonathan Harker's Journal5 October, afternoon For some time
after our meeting this morning I could not think. The new phases of things leave
my mind in a state of wonder which allows no room for active thought. Mina's determination
not to take any part in the discussion set me thinking. And as I could not argue
the matter with her, I could only guess. I am as far as ever from a solution now.
The way the others received it, too puzzled me. The last time we talked of the
subject we agreed that there was to be no more concealment of anything amongst
us. Mina is sleeping now, calmly and sweetly like a little child. Her lips are
curved and her face beams with happiness. Thank God, there are such moments still
for her. |
