Which parts of this passage from chapter 6 of emily brontë's wuthering heights illustrate that catherine is a strong and spirited person who can bear pain silently? i had cathy by the hand, and was urging her on, when all at once she fell down. "run, heathcliff, run! " she whispered. "they have let the bull-dog loose, and he holds me! " the devil had seized her ankle, nelly: i heard his abominable snorting. she did not yell out—no! she would have scorned to do it, if she had been spitted on the horns of a mad cow. i did, though: i vociferated curses enough to annihilate any fiend in christendom; and i got a stone and thrust it between his jaws, and tried with all my might to cram it down his throat. a beast of a servant came up with a lantern, at last, shouting—"keep fast, skulker, keep fast! " he changed his note, however, when he saw skulker’s game. the dog was throttled off; his huge, purple tongue hanging half a foot out of his mouth, and his pendent lips streaming with bloody slaver. the man took cathy up; she was sick: not from fear, i’m certain, but from pain.
