Why had he ever thought, hoped that perhaps it might be so, that
perhaps Vere might some day completely and happily fill her life? Long
ago he had encouraged her to work, to write. Misled by her keen
intelligence, her enthusiasm, her sincerity and vitality, by the
passion that was in her, the great heart, the power of feeling, the
power of criticising and inspiring another which she had freely shown

that she might be an artist, but that she preferred to be simply a
woman. But he found it was not so. Hermione had not the peculiar gift
of the writer. She could feel, but she could not arrange. She could
discern, but she could not expose. A flood of words came to her, but
not the inevitable word. She could not take that exquisite leap from
the known into the unknown which genius can take with the certainty of
alighting on firm ground.
