Conversion

Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), Tess of the d'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman, chapter XLV (Tess to Alec d'Urberville):
'You, and those like you, take your fill of pleasure on earth by making the life of such as me bitter and black with sorrow; and then it is a fine thing, when you have had enough of that, to think of securing your pleasure in heaven by becoming converted!'
