Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Daughter of Music, Vol. 3 of 3 Her child, the boy whom Paul had named Anthony, was the chief interest, the chief pleasure, the chief fear of her life. He was fragile and delicate, 'and it seemed to Rhoda that the curse that Paul had called down upon him hung over and shadowed his childish life. She never forgot the curse; she could not forget it for the music in him showed itself when he was very young and would not be killed or checked. She would not let him hear any music; the organ had stood silent and unopened ever since his birth; the nasal singing Of the village choir and the wheeze of the harmonium that led it, were the only examples Of melody that he knew: but his musical temperament showed itself in his sensitiveness to sounds, in the discomfort caused him by the singing in church, in the quickness of ear that detected every shadow of intonation, and caught up at once any air that he heard: and Rhoda noted the signs of his inheritance and knew them for what they were.
