of   one   sort   of   illness�察  �having   assured   herself   with   some   anxiety�察�

that there had been no fall in the case�察�that Anne had not at any 

time lately slipped down�察�and got a blow on her head�察�that she was 

perfectly   convinced        of  having     had   no   fall�察 �could   part   with   her 

cheerfully�察�and depend on finding her better at night。 

    Anxious   to   omit   no   possible   precaution�察  �Anne   struggled�察  �and 

said�察�

    ^I am afraid�察�ma¨am�察�that it is not perfectly understood。 Pray be 

so good as to mention to the other gentlemen that we hope to see 

your  whole   party  this   evening。   I   am   afraid   there   had   been   some 

mistake�察  �and   I   wish   you   particularly   to   assure   Captain   Harville 

and Captain Wentworth�察�that we hope to see them both。 ̄ 

    ^Oh�     �my   dear�察   �it  is  quite  understood�察      �I  give  you    my   word。 

Captain Harville has no thought but of going。 ̄ 

    ^Do   you   think   so�拭  �But   I   am   afraid�察  �and   I   should   be   so   very 

sorry。   Will    you   promise   me      to   mention    it�察 �when    you   see   them 

again�拭     �You    will  see   them     both   this   morning�察     �I  dare   say。   Do 

promise me。 ̄

Harville   anywhere�察  �remember   to   give   Miss   Anne¨s   message。   But 

indeed�察�my dear�察�you need not be uneasy。 Captain Harville holds 

himself  quite   engaged�察  �I¨ll answer  for  it�察  �and  Captain   Wentworth 

the same�察�I dare say。 ̄ 

    Anne      could    do   no   more�察    �but    her   heart    prophesied       some 

mischance   to  damp   the   perfection   of   her   felicity。   It   could   not   be 

very  lasting�察  �however。   Even   if   he   did   not   come   to   Camden´place 

himself�察�it would be in her power to send an intelligible sentence

her�察�there was no preventing him。 This was almost cruel。 But she 

could not be long ungrateful�察�he was sacrificing an engagement at 

a gunsmith¨s�察�to be of use to her�察�and she set off with him�察�with no 

feeling but gratitude apparent。 

    They     were   on   Union´street�察     �when    a  quicker    step   behind�察   �a 

something of familiar sound�察�gave her two  moments¨ preparation 

for   the   sight   of   Captain   Wentworth。   He   joined   them�察  �but�察  �as     if 

irresolute whether to join or to pass on�察�said nothing!only looked。 

Anne could command herself enough to receive that look�察�and not 

repulsively。 The cheeks which had been pale now glowed�察�and the 

movements which had hesitated were decided。 He walked by her 

side。 Presently�察�struck by a sudden thought�察�Charles said! 

    ^Captain   Wentworth�察  �which   way   are   you   going�拭  �Only   to   Gay´ 

street�察�or farther up the town�拭院�

    ^I hardly know�察院�replied Captain Wentworth�察�surprised。

Camden´place�拭  �Because�察  �if         you   are�察  �I  shall  have   no   scruple   in 

asking     you   to  take   my   place�察  �and    give  Anne     your   arm    to  her 

father¨s door。 She is rather done for this morning�察�and must not go 

so   far  without     help�察  �and   I  ought   to  be   at  that   fellow¨s   in  the 

market´place。 He promised me the sight of a capital gun he is just 

going   to   send   off�察 �said   he   would    keep    it  unpacked     to  the  last 

possible moment�察�that I might see it�察�and if I do not turn back now�察�

I have no chance。 By his description�察�a good deal like the second 

size   double´barrel   of   mine�察  �which   you   shot   with   one   day   round

    There could not be an objection。 There could be only the most 

proper   alacrity�察  �a   most   obliging   compliance   for   public   view�察  �and

minute Charles was at the bottom   of  Union´street  again�察  �and   the 

other     two    proceeding      together�察    �and    soon    words    enough      had 

passed      between      them     to   decide    their   direction     towards      the 

comparatively  quiet  and   retired   gravel´walk�察  �where   the   power   of 

conversation would make the present hour a blessing indeed�察�and 

prepare it for all the immortality which the happiest recollections 

of   their   own    future   lives   could    bestow。    There     they   exchanged 

again   those   feelings   and   those   promises   which   had   once   before 

seemed to secure every thing�察�but which had been followed by so 

many�察     �many     years    of  division    and    estrangement。        There    they 

returned again into the past�察�more exquisitely happy�察�perhaps�察�in 

their re´union�察�than when it had been first projected�察�more tender�察�

more   tried�察  �more   fixed   in   a knowledge   of  each  other¨s   character�察�

truth�察�and attachment�察�more equal to act�察�more justified in acting。 

And   there�察  �as   they   slowly   paced   the   gradual   ascent�察  �heedless   of 

every   group   around   them�察  �seeing   neither   sauntering   politicians�察�

bustling      housekeepers�察       �flirting   girls�察  �nor    nursery´maids        and

acknowledgements�察  �and   especially   in   those   explanations   of   what 

had     directly    preceded      the    present     moment�察     �which      were    so 

poignant and so ceaseless in interest。 All the little variations of the
