What it sounds like
She sounds surprised to find Simon alive.
What it really means
“She is reproaching him for disappearing and giving no one any news of himself.”
Said today
“Well, look who’s still alive—after disappearing without a word.”
What was happening
Lady Danbury greets Simon with this pointed remark, then lists how he has stayed out of sight and unheard from. Her follow-up makes clear the surprise is a rebuke, not genuine concern that he might be dead.
Lady DanburySo, you are not dead, after all.
