Maurice by em forster6/6/2023 ![]() ![]() Having been bullied as a new boy, he bullied others when they seemed unhappy or weak, not because he was cruel but because it was the proper thing to do.He did not even know that when he yielded to this sorrow he overcame the spectral and fell asleep. Mother and Ada and Kitty were far more important. Who was George? Nobody- just a common servant.He knew what it was, it reminded him of nothing horrible.He had been such a man all the evening, but the old feeling came over him as soon as his mother had kissed him good night.Then darkness rolled up again, the darkness that is primeval but not eternal, and yields to its own painful dawn.Puberty was there, but not intelligence, and manhood was stealing on him, as it always must, in a trance. ![]()
