"Sebuah cincin sederhana di lonceng panjang lebar menghilangkan ketakutannya, dan Miss Benton, bergegas ke kamarnya sendiri dan menutup diri, agar dia dapat mempertahankan penampilan terkejut, yang sangat penting untuk penerimaan tamu yang sopan, menunggu kedatangan mereka dengan wajah tersenyum."

--- Charles Dickens
