In her heart of hearts Mrs.
Grantly hated Mrs.Proudie--that is, with that sort of hatred one Christian lady allows herself to feel towards another.

Of course Mrs.
Grantly forgave Mrs.Proudie all her offences, and wished her well, and was at peace with her, in the Christian sense of the word, as with all other women.

But under this forbearance and meekness, and perhaps, we may say, wholly unconnected with it, there was certainly a current of antagonistic feeling which, in the ordinary unconsidered language of every day, men and women do call hatred.

This raged and was strong throughout the whole year in Barsetshire, before the eyes of all mankind.

But, nevertheless, Mrs.Grantly took Griselda to Mrs.Proudie's evening parties in London.
