[00:02.24] Chapter 13.
[00:04.23] Heathcliff's revenge.
[00:08.73] On the sixth morning, after my breakfast had been brought, the door to the room was left unlocked.
[00:15.89] I waited, as I had waited every morning for the sound of the key turning in the lock.
[00:22.79] It didn't come, and hurrying down the stairs, I found the front door also open, and the living room filled with sunlight.
[00:32.02] Linton lay on the settle.
[00:35.92] Where's Miss Catherine?
[00:37.90] I demanded.
[00:39.46] Has she gone?
[00:42.85] Oh, no, he answered.
[00:45.56] She can't go.
[00:47.57] We won't let her.
[00:50.75] She's my wife now, and must do everything I say.
[00:57.57] Where is she?
[00:59.67] I repeated.
[01:02.34] Locked in her room, said Linton.
[01:07.14] But you shan't have the key.
[01:09.73] No one knows where it is but father and me.
[01:15.49] And where is your father?
[01:18.78] In the courtyard talking to Dr. Kenneth.
[01:23.78] He says that Catherine's father is dying.
[01:28.29] When he does, Thrushcross Grange will be mine, won't it?
[01:36.61] I could bear neither the sight nor the sound of the spoiled selfish thing for a moment longer.
[01:42.94] I ran from the room and made my way over the moors as quickly as I could.
[01:50.89] The servants at the Grange, who had thought both Miss Catherine and I dead in some bog, greeted me with astonishment and joy.
[02:01.40] I assured them that she was well, and would follow shortly.
[02:07.80] Then I hurried up the stairs to tell the news to my master.
[02:13.90] What a change I found in him.
[02:18.52] I feared that what Dr. Kenneth had said was right.
[02:25.93] She'll soon be here, sir, I murmured, bending over him, and I saw him stir a little.
[02:34.25] Catherine is safe and well and will come home soon.
[02:43.35] Then I sent a man servant to hire a lawyer, and to find and bring my little mistress home.
[02:51.69] He returned to say that Heathcliff had told the lawyer that Catherine was ill, but that she would return to us as soon as she was well.
[03:05.05] Fools, I thought, not to see through this trick.
[03:13.58] I gathered together four of our strongest men, and armed them with my master's guns, determined to find Catherine.
[03:27.40] But I was spared the task.
[03:31.70] For just as we were about to set out, the door was flung open and in she rushed.
[03:41.96] Her hair was wild, her dress torn, her hands cut and bleeding.
[03:49.82] She had been locked in the same room that had once imprisoned her mother, and just as her mother had done, she had escaped through the window.
[04:01.47] From there she had made her way down to the ground by a low sloping roof and the branches of a tree.
[04:11.56] Nelly, she cried.
[04:14.66] He's not dead, is he?
[04:18.98] No, miss, I said, but there is not much time left.
[04:26.89] She was with him when he died.
[04:33.72] Soon after the funeral of my master, Heathcliff paid a visit to the Grange.
[04:41.67] His purpose, he stated, was to take Catherine back to Wethering Heights.
[04:49.77] Your husband needs you, he told her.
[04:53.52] He is ill.
[04:56.91] Your place is by his side.
[05:00.57] The law says so, miss.
[05:03.43] Hurry and pack your things.
[05:10.21] She didn't even try to argue with him, knowing it to be useless, but just went to her room and returned in a short while with a bag.
[05:23.30] Nelly, she said, is my pony saddle?
[05:31.22] You may do without your pony, said Heathcliff.
[05:36.21] It's a fine night and we'll walk.
[05:41.12] You'll need no ponies at Wethering Heights.
[05:46.01] The only journeys you'll make there, your own feet will take you.
[05:54.18] She bent and kissed my cheek, and that was the last I saw of my little mistress.
[06:07.02] And that, sir, said Nelly, is the end of my story.
