This Rebecca had foreseen, and for this very purpose she had hastened to mention her father's name and lineage; yet--for the fair and wise daughter of Isaac was not without a touch of female weakness--she could not but sigh internally when the glance of respectful admiration, not altogether unmixed with tenderness, with which Ivanhoe had hitherto regarded his unknown benefactress, was exchanged at once for a manner cold, composed, and collected, and fraught with no deeper feeling than that which expressed a grateful sense of courtesy received from an unexpected quarter, and from one of an inferior race.
Mindazonáltal - hiszen Izsák zsidó szép és okos lánya sem volt mentes minden női gyengeségtől - titokban szomorúan sóhajtott, ami­kor észrevette, hogy Ivanhoe hódoló pillantása, amelybe elragadtatás és gyengédség is vegyült, hirtelen megváltozik. Amikor Ivanhoe megtudta, hogy ismeretlen jótevője zsidó, egyszerre elhidegült iránta; a varázs, ami eddig elfogta, szertefoszlott.
