Yes, you are absolutely right there, gmw. I did notice the comment about Gilbert helping her and thinking "Not in the version I read!", but then forgot to comment on that.
And Helen was the one to manage her own escape. Indeed, I wonder just how abused she was in the sense of being in thrall to Arthur. She seems fiercely independent to me, though of course she could be full of self-doubt and recriminations to which we are not privy.
