Mr and Mrs Lyons haven’t adopted before because Mr Lyons wants a son of his own blood. Mrs Lyons makes Mrs Johnstone swear on the Bible because if she breaks the promise she will go to hell. She will most probably not break it = religion is a main factor here. “Constant as the changing weather.” This tells us that Mrs Johnstone’s life is never consistant in one place. She is always moving, or objects in her house are being taken away from here.
