In Chapter 42, Mr. Casaubon asks Lydgate about his illness and learns that sudden death is possible, intensifying his fears about Dorothea and Will Ladislaw. His coldness drives Dorothea into bitter anger, but reflection on his suffering restores her compassion, and they end the night together.
Vad händer
- Mr. Casaubon suspects Will Ladislaw wants to marry Dorothea after his death and considers measures to prevent it.

- Dorothea retreats upstairs in anger, questioning her marriage, while her husband requests dinner alone in the library.
- Reflection on his suffering overcomes her resentment, and she waits outside her room to meet him.
- Mr. Casaubon greets her gently, and they walk along the corridor holding hands.
