The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Lair of the White Worm by Bram Stoker: Caswall, who was the offender, are out of range as witnesses. Was

"Mimi did. Her face flamed with anger as she saw the look."
"What kind of look was it? Over-ardent or too admiring, or what?
Was it the look of a lover, or one who fain would be? You

"Yes, sir, I quite understand. Anything of that sort I should of

self-control--to which I am pledged."
"If it were not amatory, was it threatening? Where was the
offence?"
