“Yes. He saw her in his mind, exactly as she was. She bore him company with her pride, resentment, hatred, all as plain to him as her beauty; with nothing plainer to him than her hatred of him.

But he always saw her as she was, without disguise, and watched her on the dangerous way that she was going.” – Charles Dickens
