considered   that   his   excessive   Intimacy   at   Uppercross   must   have 

its danger of ill consequence in many ways�察�and that while trying 

whether he could attach himself to either of the Girls�察�he might be 

exciting unpleasant reports�察�if not�察�raising unrequited regard� �He 

found�察�too late�察�that he had entangled himself!and that precisely 

as he became   thoroughly  satisfied   of  his not caring  for  Louisa at 

all�察�he must regard himself as bound to her�察�if her feelings for him�察�

were   what   the   Harvilles   supposed。!It   determined   him   to   leave 

Lyme!& await her  perfect  recovery  elsewhere。   He   would   gladly 

weaken�察 �by  any fair      means�察  �whatever  sentiments   or  speculations 

concerning        him    might     exist�察   �and    he    went     therefore     into 

Shropshire       meaning      after   a  while�察  �to  return    to  the   Crofts    at 

Kellynch�察     �&   act  as   he   found    requisite。!He       had   remained      in 

Shropshire�察      �lamenting     the   Blindness     of  his   own    Pride�察  �&   the 

Blunders of his own Calculations�察�till at once released from Louisa

sight of Mr E。�察�to experience all the changes of each at the Concert�察�

more   happy   than   Language   could   express�察  �or   any   heart   but   his

    He was very eager & very delightful in the description of what 

he   had   felt   at   the   Concert。!The   Evening   seemed   to   have   been

E。¨s   appearing     &   tearing   her  away�察   �&   one   or  two   subsequent 

moments�察�marked by returning hope�察�or increasing Despondence�察�

were all dwelt on with energy。 `To see you�察�cried he�察�in the midst of 

those who could not be my well´wishers�察�to see your Cousin close 

by you!conversing & smiling!& feel all the horrible Eligibilities 

& Proprieties of the Match� �to consider it as the certain wish of 

every  being  who  could   hope  to  influence  you!even�察�if   your   own 

feelings were reluctant�察�or indifferent!to consider what powerful 

supports would be his� �Was not it enough to make the fool of me�察�

which   my   behaviour   expressed�拭�How   could   I   look   on   without 

agony�拭�Was   not   the   very   sight       of  the  Friend   who    sat  behind 

you�拭�was not the recollection of what had been!the knowledge 

of   her   Influence!the   indelible�察  �immoveable   Impression   of   what 

Persuasion had once done�察�was not it all against me�拭�

have    suspected     me  now�察�The        case   so  different�察  �&  my    age  so 

different� �If      I was    wrong�察     �in  yielding    to   Persuasion     once�察�

remember that it was to Persuasion exerted on the side of Safety�察�

not of Risk。 When I yielded�察�I thought it was to Duty。!But no Duty 

could be called in aid here。!In marrying a Man indifferent to me�察�

all Risk would have been incurred�察�& all Duty violated。¨!`Perhaps 

I ought to have reasoned thus�察�he replied�察�but I could not。!I could 

not   derive    benefit   from   the  later   knowledge     of   your  Character 

which     I  had   acquired�察   �I  could   not   bring   it  into  play�察  �it  was 

overwhelmed�察  �buried�察  �lost   in   those   earlier   feelings�察  �which   I   had 

been smarting under Year after Year。!I could think of you only as 

one    who   had   yielded�察   �who   had   given     me   up�察  �who   had   been 

influenced by any one rather than by me!I saw you with the very

Person      who   had    guided    you   in  that  year   of  Misery!I      had    no 

reason to think her of less authority now�察�the force of Habit was 

to be added。¨!`I should have thought�察�said Anne�察�that my Manner 

to   yourself�察  �might   have   spared   you   much�察  �or   all   of   this。¨!`No! 

No!Your manner might be only the ease�察�which your engagement 

to another Man would give。!I left you with this belief。!And yet! 

I   was   determined   to   see   you   again。!My   spirits   rallied   with   the 

morning�察�& I felt that I had still a motive for remaining here。!The 

Admirals news indeed�察�was a revulsion。 Since that moment�察�I have 

been decided what to do!and had it been confirmed�察�this would 

have been my last day in Bath。¨ 

    There   was   time   for   all   this   to   pass!with   such   Interruptions 

only    as  enhanced      the   charm    of  the   communication!and            Bath 

could scarcely contain any other two Beings at once so rationally 

&    so   rapturously     happy     as  during    that   evening     occupied     the 

Sopha of Mrs Croft¨s Drawing room in Gay St。 

    Capt。   W。   had   taken   care   to   meet   the   Admiral   as   he   returned 

into   the   house�察  �to   satisfy   him   as   to   Mr   E。   &   Kellynch�察�and   the 

delicacy     of  the   Admiral¨s     good    nature     kept   him    from    saying 

another   word   on   the   subject   to   Anne。!He   was   quite   concerned 

lest he might have been giving her pain by touching a tender part。 

Who could say�拭�She might be liking her  Cousin�察�better  than   he 

liked    her。!And   indeed�察  �upon        recollection�察   �if  they  had    been   to 

marry at all why should they have waited so long�拭�

    When      the   Evening     closed�察  �it  is  probable     that   the  Admiral 

received      some    new     ideas   from    his   Wife�察�whose        particularly 

friendly   manner   in   parting       with   her�察 �gave    Anne    the   gratifying 

persuasion of her seeing & approving。 

    It had been such a day to Anne� �the hours which had passed

since   her   leaving   Camden   Place�察  �had   done   so   much� �She   was 

almost     bewildered�察     �almost    too  happy     in  looking    back。!It     was 

necessary   to   sit   up   half   the   Night   &   lie   awake   the   remainder   to 

comprehend         with   composure      her   present    state�察  �&   pay   for  the

WHO   can   be   in   doubt   of   what   followed�拭�When   any   two   Young 

People   take   it  into  their   heads   to   marry�察  �they   are   pretty   sure   by 

perseverance to carry their point!be they ever so poor�察�or ever so 

imprudent�察�or ever so  little likely  to  be necessary  to  each  other¨s 

ultimate comfort。 This may be bad Morality to conclude with�察�but I 

believe it to be Truth!and if such parties succeed�察�how should a 

Capt。 W。  & an Anne   E。�察  �with  the   advantage   of   maturity  of   Mind�察�

consciousness        of  Right�察  �&   one    Independant       Fortune     between 

them�察�fail of  hearing  down   every  opposition�拭 �They  might  in   fact�察�

have   born   down   a   great deal   more   than   they  met  with�察  �for  there 

was   little   to   distress   them   beyond   the   want   of   Graciousness      & 

Warmth。 Sir W。 made no objection��
