101:005,00[U  ]| <EMMA.>
101:005,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma*Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with 
101:005,02['  ]| a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to$9$ 
101:005,03['  ]| unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had 
101:005,04['  ]| lived nearly twenty-one years in$4$ the world with very little 
101:005,05['  ]| to$9$ distress$1$ or vex her. 
101:005,06['  ]| She was the youngest of the two daughters of a most 
101:005,07['  ]| affectionate, indulgent father, and had, in$4$ consequence of 
101:005,08['  ]| her sister's marriage, been mistress of his house from 
101:005,09['  ]| a very early period. Her mother had died too$5#1$ long ago 
101:005,10['  ]| for$4$ her to$9$ have more than an indistinct remembrance of 
101:005,11['  ]| her caresses, and her place$0$ had been supplied by$4$ an excellent 
101:005,12['  ]| woman as governess, who$6#1$ had fallen little short of 
101:005,13['  ]| a mother in$4$ affection. 
101:005,14['  ]| Sixteen years had $EM#O$Miss*Taylor been in$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
101:005,15['  ]| family, less as a governess than a friend, very fond of both 
101:005,16['  ]| daughters, but particularly of $EM#A$Emma. Between \them\ it 
101:005,17['  ]| was more the intimacy of sisters. Even$5$ before$3$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor 
101:005,18['  ]| had ceased to$9$ hold$1$ the nominal office of governess, 
101:005,19['  ]| the mildness of her temper had hardly allowed her to$9$ 
101:005,20['  ]| impose any restraint; and the shadow of authority being$1$ 
101:005,21['  ]| now long passed away, they had been living together as 
101:005,22['  ]| friend and friend very mutually attached, and $EM#A$Emma 
101:005,23['  ]| doing just$5$ what she liked; highly esteeming $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's 
101:005,24['  ]| judgment, but directed chiefly by$4$ her own$2$. 
101:005,25['  ]| The real evils indeed of $EM#A$Emma's situation were the 
101:005,26['  ]| power of having rather too$5#1$ much her own$2$ way, and a disposition 
101:005,27['  ]| to$9$ think a little too$5#1$ well$5$ of herself; these were 
101:005,28['  ]| the disadvantages which$6#1$ threatened alloy to$4$ her many 
101:005,29['  ]| enjoyments. The danger, however, was at present$0#1$ so$5#1$ 
101:006,01['  ]| unperceived, that$3$ they did not by$4$ any means$0$ rank$1$ as 
101:006,02['  ]| misfortunes with her. 
101:006,03['  ]| Sorrow came ~~ a gentle sorrow ~~ but not at all in$4$ the 
101:006,04['  ]| shape$0$ of any disagreeable consciousness. ~~ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor 
101:006,05['  ]| married. It was $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's loss which$6#1$ first brought 
101:006,06['  ]| grief. It was on$4$ the wedding-day of this beloved friend 
101:006,07['  ]| that$3$ $EM#A$Emma first sat in$4$ mournful thought$0$ of any continuance. 
101:006,08['  ]| The wedding over and the bride-people gone, 
101:006,09['  ]| her father and herself were left to$9$ dine together, with no$2$ 
101:006,10['  ]| prospect of a third to$9$ cheer a long evening. Her father 
101:006,11['  ]| composed himself to$9$ sleep$1$ after$4$ dinner, as usual, and she 
101:006,12['  ]| had then only to$9$ sit and think of what she had lost. 
101:006,13@a   | The event had every promise$0$ of happiness for$4$ her 
101:006,14@a   | friend. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was a man of unexceptionable 
101:006,15@a   | character, easy fortune, suitable age and pleasant manners; 
101:006,16@a   | and there was some satisfaction in$4$ considering with what 
101:006,17@a   | self-denying, generous friendship she had always wished 
101:006,18@a   | and promoted the match$0$; but it was a black morning's 
101:006,19@a   | work$0$ for$4$ her. The want$0$ of $EM#O$Miss*Taylor would be felt 
101:006,20@a   | every hour of every day.  
101:006,20['  ]| She recalled her past$2$ kindness ~~ 
101:006,21['  ]| the kindness, the affection of sixteen years ~~ 
101:006,21@a   | how she had 
101:006,22@a   | taught and how she had played with her from five years 
101:006,23@a   | old ~~ how she had devoted all her powers to$9$ attach and 
101:006,24@a   | amuse her in$4$ health ~~ and how nursed her through$4$ the 
101:006,25@a   | various illnesses of childhood. 
101:006,25['  ]| A large debt of gratitude 
101:006,26['  ]| was owing here; but the intercourse of the last$2$ seven 
101:006,27['  ]| years, the equal$2$ footing and perfect$2$ unreserve which$6#1$ had 
101:006,28['  ]| soon followed $EM#L$Isabella's marriage on$4$ their being$1$ left to$4$ 
101:006,29['  ]| each other, was yet a dearer, tenderer recollection. 
101:006,29@a   | It 
101:006,30@a   | had been a friend and companion such as few possessed, 
101:006,31@a   | intelligent, well-informed, useful, gentle, knowing all the 
101:006,32@a   | ways of the family, interested in$4$ all its concerns$0$, and 
101:006,33@a   | peculiarly interested in$4$ herself, in$4$ every pleasure, every 
101:006,34@a   | scheme$0$ of her's; ~~ one to$4$ whom$6#1$ she could speak every 
101:006,35@a   | thought$0$ as it arose, and who$6#1$ had such an affection for$4$ her 
101:006,36@a   | as could never find fault. 
101:006,37@a   | How was she to$9$ bear$1$ the change$0$? ~~ It was true that$3$ 
101:006,38@a   | her friend was going only half a mile from them; 
101:006,38['  ]| but 
101:007,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was aware that$3$ great must be the difference 
101:007,02['  ]| between a $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston only half a mile from them, and 
101:007,03['  ]| a $EM#O$Miss*Taylor in$4$ the house; and with all her advantages, 
101:007,04['  ]| natural$2$ and domestic$2$, she was now in$4$ great danger of 
101:007,05['  ]| suffering from intellectual solitude. She dearly$5#1$ loved her 
101:007,06['  ]| father, but he was no$2$ companion for$4$ her. He could not 
101:007,07['  ]| meet$1$ her in$4$ conversation, rational or playful. 
101:007,08['  ]| The evil of the actual disparity in$4$ their ages (and 
101:007,09['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had not married early) was much increased 
101:007,10['  ]| by$4$ his constitution and habits; for$3$ having been a valetudinarian 
101:007,11['  ]| all his life, without activity of mind$0$ or body, he 
101:007,12['  ]| was a much older man in$4$ ways than in$4$ years; and though 
101:007,13['  ]| everywhere beloved for$4$ the friendliness of his heart and 
101:007,14['  ]| his amiable temper, his talents could not have recommended 
101:007,15['  ]| him at any time. 
101:007,16['  ]| Her sister, though comparatively but little removed by$4$ 
101:007,17['  ]| matrimony, being$1$ settled in$4$ London, only sixteen miles 
101:007,18['  ]| off, was much beyond$4$ her daily reach$0$; and many a long 
101:007,19['  ]| October and November evening must be struggled through$5$ 
101:007,20['  ]| at Hartfield, before$3$ Christmas brought the next visit$0$ from 
101:007,21['  ]| $EM#L$Isabella and her husband and their little children to$9$ fill 
101:007,22['  ]| the house and give her pleasant society again. 
101:007,23['  ]| Highbury, the large and populous village almost 
101:007,24['  ]| amounting to$4$ a town, to$4$ which$6#1$ Hartfield, in$4$ spite$8$ of its 
101:007,25['  ]| separate$2$ lawn and shrubberies and name$0$, did really 
101:007,26['  ]| belong, afforded her no$2$ equals. The $EM#P1$Woodhouses were 
101:007,27['  ]| first in$4$ consequence there. All looked up$5$ to$4$ them. She 
101:007,28['  ]| had many acquaintance in$4$ the place$0$, for$3$ her father was 
101:007,29['  ]| universally civil, but not one among them who$6#1$ could be 
101:007,30['  ]| accepted in$4$ lieu of $EM#O$Miss*Taylor for$4$ even$5$ half a day. It 
101:007,31['  ]| was a melancholy$2$ change$0$; and $EM#A$Emma could not but 
101:007,32['  ]| sigh$1$ over it and wish$1$ for$4$ impossible things, till her father 
101:007,33['  ]| awoke, and made it necessary to$9$ be cheerful. His spirits 
101:007,34['  ]| required support$0$. He was a nervous man, easily depressed; 
101:007,35['  ]| fond of every*body that$6#1$ he was used to$4$, and hating to$9$ 
101:007,36['  ]| part$1$ with them; hating change$0$ of every kind$0$. Matrimony, 
101:007,37['  ]| as the origin of change$0$, was always disagreeable; 
101:007,38['  ]| and he was by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ yet reconciled to$4$ his own$2$ daughter's 
101:008,01['  ]| marrying, nor could ever speak of her but with 
101:008,02['  ]| compassion, though it had been entirely a match$0$ of 
101:008,03['  ]| affection, when he was now obliged to$9$ part$1$ with $EM#O$Miss*Taylor 
101:008,04['  ]| too$5#2$; and from his habits of gentle selfishness and 
101:008,05['  ]| of being$1$ never able to$9$ suppose that$3$ other people could 
101:008,06['  ]| feel differently from himself, he was very much disposed 
101:008,07['  ]| to$9$ think $EM#O$Miss*Taylor had done as sad a thing for$4$ herself 
101:008,08['  ]| as for$4$ them, and would have been a great deal$0$ happier if 
101:008,09['  ]| she had spent all the rest$0#1$ of her life at Hartfield. $EM#A$Emma 
101:008,10['  ]| smiled and chatted as cheerfully as she could, to$9$ keep him 
101:008,11['  ]| from such thoughts; but when tea came, it was impossible 
101:008,12['  ]| for$4$ him not to$9$ say exactly as he had at dinner, 
101:008,13[P  ]| "Poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor! ~~ I wish$1$ she were here again. What 
101:008,14[P  ]| a pity$0$ it is that$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston ever thought$1$ of her!" 
101:008,15[A  ]| "I cannot agree with you, papa; you know I cannot. 
101:008,16[A  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston is such a good-humoured, pleasant, excellent 
101:008,17[A  ]| man, that$3$ he thoroughly deserves a good wife; ~~ and you 
101:008,18[A  ]| would not have had $EM#O$Miss*Taylor live with us for*ever and 
101:008,19[A  ]| bear$1$ all my odd humours, when she might have a house 
101:008,20[A  ]| of her own$2$?" 
101:008,21[P  ]| "A house of her own$2$! ~~ but where is the advantage of 
101:008,22[P  ]| a house of her own$2$? This is three times as large. ~~ And 
101:008,23[P  ]| you have never any odd humours, my dear$2#1$." 
101:008,24[A  ]| "How often we shall be going to$9$ see them and they 
101:008,25[A  ]| coming to$9$ see us! ~~ We shall be always meeting! \We\ 
101:008,26[A  ]| must begin, we must go and pay$1$ our wedding-visit very 
101:008,27[A  ]| soon." 
101:008,28[P  ]| "My dear$2#1$, how am I to$9$ get so$5#1$ far? Randalls is such 
101:008,29[P  ]| a distance$0$. I could not walk$1$ half so$5#1$ far." 
101:008,30[A  ]| "No$7$, papa, nobody thought$1$ of your walking. We 
101:008,31[A  ]| must go in$4$ the carriage to$9$ be sure." 
101:008,32[P  ]| "The carriage! But $EM#ZI$James will$1$ not like$1$ to$9$ put the 
101:008,33[P  ]| horses to$5$ for$4$ such a little way; ~~ and where are the poor 
101:008,34[P  ]| horses to$9$ be while$3$ we are paying our visit$0$?" 
101:008,35[A  ]| "They are to$9$ be put into $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's stable, papa. 
101:008,36[A  ]| You know we have settled all that$6#2$ already. We talked 
101:008,37[A  ]| it all over with $EM#N$Mr%*Weston last$2$ night. And as for$4$ $EM#ZI$James, 
101:008,38[A  ]| you may$1$ be very sure he will$1$ always like$1$ going to$4$ Randalls, 
101:009,01[A  ]| because of his daughter's being$1$ housemaid there. I only 
101:009,02[A  ]| doubt$1$ whether he will$1$ ever take us anywhere else. That$6#2$, 
101:009,03[A  ]| was your doing, papa. You got $EM#ZI1$Hannah that$6#2$ good place$0$. 
101:009,04[A  ]| Nobody thought$1$ of $EM#ZI1$Hannah till you mentioned her ~~ 
101:009,05[A  ]| $EM#ZI$James is so$5#1$ obliged to$4$ you!" 
101:009,06[P  ]| "I am very glad I did think of her. It was very lucky, 
101:009,07[P  ]| for$3$ I would not have had poor $EM#ZI$James think himself 
101:009,08[P  ]| slighted upon$4$ any account$0$; and I am sure she will$1$ make$1$ 
101:009,09[P  ]| a very good servant; she is a civil, pretty-spoken girl; 
101:009,10[P  ]| I have a great opinion of her. Whenever I see her, she 
101:009,11[P  ]| always curtseys and asks me how I do, in$4$ a very pretty$2$ 
101:009,12[P  ]| manner; and when you have had her here to$9$ do needlework, 
101:009,13[P  ]| I observe she always turns$1$ the lock$0$ of the door the 
101:009,14[P  ]| right$2#1$ way and never bangs it. I am sure she will$1$ be an 
101:009,15[P  ]| excellent servant; and it will$1$ be a great comfort$0$ to$4$ poor 
101:009,16[P  ]| $EM#O$Miss*Taylor to$9$ have somebody about$4$ her that$6#1$ she is used 
101:009,17[P  ]| to$9$ see. Whenever $EM#ZI$James goes over to$9$ see his daughter 
101:009,18[P  ]| you know, she will$1$ be hearing of us. He will$1$ be able to$9$ 
101:009,19[P  ]| tell her how we all are." 
101:009,20['  ]| $EM#A$Emma spared no$2$ exertions to$9$ maintain this happier 
101:009,21['  ]| flow$0$ of ideas, and hoped, by$4$ the help$0$ of backgammon, to$9$ 
101:009,22['  ]| get her father tolerably through$4$ the evening, and be 
101:009,23['  ]| attacked by$4$ no$2$ regrets but her own$2$. The backgammon-table 
101:009,24['  ]| was placed; but a visitor immediately afterwards 
101:009,25['  ]| walked in$5$ and made it unnecessary. 
101:009,26['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, a sensible$2#2$ man about$4$ seven or eight-and-thirty, 
101:009,27['  ]| was not only a very old and intimate$2$ friend of the 
101:009,28['  ]| family, but particularly connected with it as the elder 
101:009,29['  ]| brother of $EM#L$Isabella's husband. He lived about$4$ a mile 
101:009,30['  ]| from Highbury, was a frequent visitor and always welcome$2$, 
101:009,31['  ]| and at this time more welcome$2$ than usual, as 
101:009,32['  ]| coming directly from their mutual connections in$4$ London. 
101:009,33['  ]| He had returned to$4$ a late dinner after$4$ some days absence, 
101:009,34['  ]| and now walked up$5$ to$4$ Hartfield to$9$ say that$3$ all were well$5$ 
101:009,35['  ]| in$4$ Brunswick-square. It was a happy circumstance and 
101:009,36['  ]| animated $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse for$4$ some time. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
101:009,37['  ]| had a cheerful manner which$6#1$ always did him good; and 
101:009,38['  ]| his many inquiries after$4$ 
101:009,38[P  ]| "poor $EM#L$Isabella" 
101:009,38['  ]| and her children 
101:010,01['  ]| were answered most satisfactorily. When this was over, 
101:010,02['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse gratefully observed, 
101:010,03[P  ]| "It is very kind$2$ of you, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, to$9$ come out$5$ at 
101:010,04[P  ]| this late hour to$9$ call$1$ upon$4$ us. I am afraid you must have 
101:010,05[P  ]| had a shocking walk$0$." 
101:010,06[B  ]| "Not at all, sir. It is a beautiful, moonlight night; 
101:010,07[B  ]| and so$5#1$ mild that$3$ I must draw back$5$ from your great fire$0$." 
101:010,08[P  ]| "But you must have found it very damp$2$ and dirty. 
101:010,09[P  ]| I wish$1$ you may$1$ not catch$1$ cold$0$." 
101:010,10[B  ]| "Dirty, sir! Look$1$ at my shoes. Not a speck on$4$ them." 
101:010,11[P  ]| "Well$7$! that$6#2$ is quite surprizing, for$3$ we have had a vast 
101:010,12[P  ]| deal$0$ of rain$0$ here. It rained dreadfully hard for$4$ half an 
101:010,13[P  ]| hour, while$3$ we were at breakfast$0$. I wanted them to$9$ put 
101:010,14[P  ]| off the wedding." 
101:010,15[B  ]| "By*the*bye ~~ I have not wished you joy. Being$1$ pretty$5$ 
101:010,16[B  ]| well$5$ aware of what sort of joy you must both be feeling, 
101:010,17[B  ]| I have been in$4$ no$2$ hurry$0$ with my congratulations. But 
101:010,18[B  ]| I hope$1$ it all went off tolerably well$5$. How did you all 
101:010,19[B  ]| behave? Who$6#2$ cried most?" 
101:010,20[P  ]| "Ah! poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor! 'tis a sad business." 
101:010,21[B  ]| "Poor $EM#P$Mr% and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, if you please; but 
101:010,22[B  ]| I cannot possibly say ""poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor."" I have a great 
101:010,23[B  ]| regard$0$ for$4$ you and $EM#A$Emma; but when it comes to$4$ the 
101:010,24[B  ]| question$0$ of dependence or independence! ~~ At any rate$0$, 
101:010,25[B  ]| it must be better to$9$ have only one to$9$ please, than two." 
101:010,26[A  ]| "Especially when \one\ of those two is such a fanciful, 
101:010,27[A  ]| troublesome creature!" 
101:010,27['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma playfully. 
101:010,27[A  ]| "That$6#2$, 
101:010,28[A  ]| is what you have in$4$ your head$0$, I know ~~ and what you 
101:010,29[A  ]| would certainly say if my father were not by$5$." 
101:010,30[P  ]| "I believe it is very true, my dear$2#1$, indeed," 
101:010,30['  ]| said 
101:010,31['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse with a sigh$0$. 
101:010,31[P  ]| "I am afraid I am sometimes 
101:010,32[P  ]| very fanciful and troublesome." 
101:010,33[A  ]| "My dearest papa! You do not think I could mean$1$ 
101:010,34[A  ]| \you\, or suppose $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley to$9$ mean$1$ \you\. What 
101:010,35[A  ]| a horrible idea! Oh, no$7$! I meant only myself. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
101:010,36[A  ]| loves to$9$ find fault with me you know ~~ in$4$ a 
101:010,37[A  ]| joke ~~ it is all a joke. We always say what we like$1$ to$4$ one 
101:010,38[A  ]| another." 
101:011,01['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, in$4$ fact, was one of the few people who$6#1$ 
101:011,02['  ]| could see faults in$4$ $EM#A$Emma*Woodhouse, and the only one 
101:011,03['  ]| who$6#1$ ever told her of them: and though this was not 
101:011,04['  ]| particularly agreeable to$4$ $EM#A$Emma herself, she knew it would 
101:011,05['  ]| be so$5#1$ much less so$5#2$ to$4$ her father, that$3$ she would not have 
101:011,06['  ]| him really suspect such a circumstance as her not being$1$ 
101:011,07['  ]| thought$1$ perfect$2$ by$4$ every*body. 
101:011,08[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma knows I never flatter her," 
101:011,08['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; 
101:011,09[B  ]| "but I meant no$2$ reflection on$4$ any*body. $EM#O$Miss*Taylor 
101:011,10[B  ]| has been used to$9$ have two persons to$9$ please; she will$1$ 
101:011,11[B  ]| now have but one. The chances are that$3$ she must be 
101:011,12[B  ]| a gainer." 
101:011,13[A  ]| "Well$7$," 
101:011,13['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, willing to$9$ let it pass$1$ ~~ 
101:011,13[A  ]| "you want$1$ 
101:011,14[A  ]| to$9$ hear about$4$ the wedding, and I shall be happy to$9$ tell 
101:011,15[A  ]| you, for$3$ we all behaved charmingly. Every*body was 
101:011,16[A  ]| punctual, every*body in$4$ their best looks$0$. Not a tear$0$, and 
101:011,17[A  ]| hardly a long face$0$ to$9$ be seen. Oh! no$7$, we all felt that$3$ 
101:011,18[A  ]| we were going to$9$ be only half a mile apart, and were sure 
101:011,19[A  ]| of meeting every day." 
101:011,20[P  ]| "Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma bears every*thing so$5#1$ well$5$," 
101:011,20['  ]| said her 
101:011,21['  ]| father. 
101:011,21[P  ]| "But, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, she is really very sorry to$9$ 
101:011,22[P  ]| lose poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor, and I am sure she \will$1$\ miss her 
101:011,23[P  ]| more than she thinks for$4$." 
101:011,24['  ]| $EM#A$Emma turned away her head$0$, divided between tears 
101:011,25['  ]| and smiles. 
101:011,26[B  ]| "It is impossible that$3$ $EM#A$Emma should not miss such 
101:011,27[B  ]| a companion," 
101:011,27['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
101:011,27[B  ]| "We should not like$1$ 
101:011,28[B  ]| her so$5#1$ well$5$ as we do, sir, if we could suppose it. But she 
101:011,29[B  ]| knows how much the marriage is to$4$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's advantage; 
101:011,30[B  ]| she knows how very acceptable it must be at $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's 
101:011,31[B  ]| time of life to$9$ be settled in$4$ a home of her own$2$, 
101:011,32[B  ]| and how important to$4$ her to$9$ be secure$2$ of a comfortable 
101:011,33[B  ]| provision, and therefore cannot allow herself to$9$ feel so$5#1$ 
101:011,34[B  ]| much pain$0$ as pleasure. Every friend of $EM#O$Miss*Taylor must 
101:011,35[B  ]| be glad to$9$ have her so$5#1$ happily married." 
101:011,36[A  ]| "And you have forgotten one matter of joy to$4$ me," 
101:011,37['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
101:011,37[A  ]| "and a very considerable one ~~ that$3$ I made 
101:011,38[A  ]| the match$0$ myself. I made the match$0$, you know, four 
101:012,01[A  ]| years ago; and to$9$ have it take place$0$, and be proved in$4$ 
101:012,02[A  ]| the right$0$, when so$5#1$ many people said $EM#N$Mr%*Weston would 
101:012,03[A  ]| never marry again, may$1$ comfort$1$ me for$4$ any*thing." 
101:012,04['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley shook his head$0$ at her. Her father fondly 
101:012,05['  ]| replied, 
101:012,05[P  ]| "Ah! my dear$2#1$, I wish$1$ you would not make$1$ 
101:012,06[P  ]| matches and foretel things, for$3$ whatever you say always 
101:012,07[P  ]| comes to$9$ pass$1$. Pray do not make$1$ any more matches." 
101:012,08[A  ]| "I promise$1$ you to$9$ make$1$ none for$4$ myself, papa; but 
101:012,09[A  ]| I must, indeed, for$4$ other people. It is the greatest amusement 
101:012,10[A  ]| in$4$ the world! And after$4$ such success you know! ~~ 
101:012,11[A  ]| Every*body said that$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston would never marry 
101:012,12[A  ]| again. Oh dear$7$, no$7$! $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, who$6#1$ had been a 
101:012,13[A  ]| widower so$5#1$ long, and who$6#1$ seemed so$5#1$ perfectly comfortable 
101:012,14[A  ]| without a wife, so$5#1$ constantly occupied either in$4$ his 
101:012,15[A  ]| business in$4$ town or among his friends here, always 
101:012,16[A  ]| acceptable wherever he went, always cheerful ~~ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
101:012,17[A  ]| need$1$ not spend a single evening in$4$ the year alone if 
101:012,18[A  ]| he did not like$1$ it. Oh, no$7$! $EM#N$Mr%*Weston certainly would 
101:012,19[A  ]| never marry again. Some people even$5$ talked of a promise$0$ 
101:012,20[A  ]| to$4$ his wife on$4$ her death-bed, and others of the son and the 
101:012,21[A  ]| uncle not letting him. All manner of solemn nonsense 
101:012,22[A  ]| was talked on$4$ the subject$0$, but I believed none of it. Ever 
101:012,23[A  ]| since the day (about$4$ four years ago) that$6#1$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor and 
101:012,24[A  ]| I met with him in$4$ Broadway-lane, when, because it began 
101:012,25[A  ]| to$9$ mizzle, he darted away with so$5#1$ much gallantry, and 
101:012,26[A  ]| borrowed two umbrellas for$4$ us from $EM#ZZJ$Farmer*Mitchell's, 
101:012,27[A  ]| I made up$5$ my mind$0$ on$4$ the subject$0$. I planned the match$0$ 
101:012,28[A  ]| from that$6#2$ hour; and when such success has blessed me 
101:012,29[A  ]| in$4$ this instance$0$, dear$2#1$ papa, you cannot think that$3$ I shall 
101:012,30[A  ]| leave$1$ off match-making." 
101:012,31[B  ]| "I do not understand what you mean$1$ by$4$ ""success;""" 
101:012,32['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
101:012,32[B  ]| "Success supposes endeavour$0$. Your 
101:012,33[B  ]| time has been properly and delicately spent, if you have 
101:012,34[B  ]| been endeavouring for$4$ the last$2$ four years to$9$ bring about$5$ 
101:012,35[B  ]| this marriage. A worthy employment for$4$ a young lady's 
101:012,36[B  ]| mind$0$! But if, which$6#1$ I rather imagine, your making the 
101:012,37[B  ]| match$0$, as you call$1$ it, means$1$ only your planning it, your 
101:012,38[B  ]| saying to$4$ yourself one idle day, ""I think it would be 
101:013,01[B  ]| a very good thing for$4$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor if $EM#N$Mr%*Weston were to$9$ 
101:013,02[B  ]| marry her,"" and saying it again to$4$ yourself every now and 
101:013,03[B  ]| then afterwards, ~~ why do you talk$1$ of success? where is 
101:013,04[B  ]| your merit$0$? ~~ what are you proud of? ~~ you made a lucky 
101:013,05[B  ]| guess$0$; and \that$6#2$\ is all that$6#1$ can be said." 
101:013,06[A  ]| "And have you never known the pleasure and triumph$0$ 
101:013,07[A  ]| of a lucky guess$0$? ~~ I pity$1$ you. ~~ I thought$1$ you cleverer ~~ 
101:013,08[A  ]| for$3$ depend upon$4$ it, a lucky guess$0$ is never merely luck. 
101:013,09[A  ]| There is always some talent in$4$ it. And as to$4$ my poor 
101:013,10[A  ]| word ""success,"" which$6#1$ you quarrel$1$ with, I do not know 
101:013,11[A  ]| that$3$ I am so$5#1$ entirely without any claim$0$ to$4$ it. You have 
101:013,12[A  ]| drawn two pretty$2$ pictures ~~ but I think there may$1$ be 
101:013,13[A  ]| a third ~~ a something between the do-nothing and the 
101:013,14[A  ]| do-all. If I had not promoted $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's visits here, 
101:013,15[A  ]| and given many little encouragements, and smoothed 
101:013,16[A  ]| many little matters, it might not have come to$4$ any*thing 
101:013,17[A  ]| after$4$ all. I think you must know Hartfield enough to$9$ 
101:013,18[A  ]| comprehend that$6#2$." 
101:013,19[B  ]| "A straight-forward, open-hearted man, like$4$ $EM#N$Weston, 
101:013,20[B  ]| and a rational unaffected woman, like$4$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor, may$1$ be 
101:013,21[B  ]| safely left to$9$ manage their own$2$ concerns$0$. You are more 
101:013,22[B  ]| likely to$9$ have done harm$0$ to$4$ yourself, than good to$4$ them, 
101:013,23[B  ]| by$4$ interference." 
101:013,24[P  ]| "$EM#A$Emma never thinks of herself, if she can do good to$4$ 
101:013,25[P  ]| others;" 
101:013,25['  ]| rejoined $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, understanding but 
101:013,26['  ]| in$4$ part$0$. 
101:013,26[P  ]| "But, my dear$2#1$, pray do not make$1$ any more 
101:013,27[P  ]| matches, they are silly things, and break up$5$ one's family 
101:013,28[P  ]| circle grievously." 
101:013,29[A  ]| "Only one more, papa; only for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. Poor 
101:013,30[A  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton! You like$1$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, papa, ~~ I must look$1$ 
101:013,31[A  ]| about$5$ for$4$ a wife for$4$ him. There is nobody in$4$ Highbury 
101:013,32[A  ]| who$6#1$ deserves him ~~ and he has been here a whole$2$ year, 
101:013,33[A  ]| and has fitted up$5$ his house so$5#1$ comfortably that$3$ it would 
101:013,34[A  ]| be a shame$0$ to$9$ have him single any longer ~~ and I thought$1$ 
101:013,35[A  ]| when he was joining their hands to-day, he looked so$5#1$ very 
101:013,36[A  ]| much as if he would like$1$ to$9$ have the same kind$2$ office done 
101:013,37[A  ]| for$4$ him! I think very well$5$ of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and this is the 
101:013,38[A  ]| only way I have of doing him a service." 
101:014,01[P  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton is a very pretty$2$ young man to$9$ be sure, and 
101:014,02[P  ]| a very good young man, and I have a great regard$0$ for$4$ 
101:014,03[P  ]| him. But if you want$1$ to$9$ shew$1$ him any attention, my 
101:014,04[P  ]| dear$2#1$, ask him to$9$ come and dine with us some day. That$6#2$ 
101:014,05[P  ]| will$1$ be a much better thing. I dare$1#2$ say $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
101:014,06[P  ]| will$1$ be so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ meet$1$ him." 
101:014,07[B  ]| "With a great deal$0$ of pleasure, sir, at any time," 
101:014,07['  ]| said 
101:014,08['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley laughing; 
101:014,08[B  ]| "and I agree with you entirely 
101:014,09[B  ]| that$3$ it will$1$ be a much better thing. Invite him to$4$ dinner, 
101:014,10[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma, and help$1$ him to$4$ the best of the fish and the 
101:014,11[B  ]| chicken, but leave$1$ him to$9$ chuse his own$2$ wife. Depend 
101:014,12[B  ]| upon$4$ it, a man of six or seven-and-twenty can take care$0$ 
101:014,13[B  ]| of himself." 
102:015,01['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was a native$0$ of Highbury, and born$1#1$ of 
102:015,02['  ]| a respectable family, which$6#1$ for$4$ the last$2$ two or three 
102:015,03['  ]| generations had been rising into gentility and property. 
102:015,04['  ]| He had received a good education, but on$4$ succeeding 
102:015,05['  ]| early in$4$ life to$4$ a small independence, had become indisposed 
102:015,06['  ]| for$4$ any of the more homely pursuits in$4$ which$6#1$ his 
102:015,07['  ]| brothers were engaged; and had satisfied an active 
102:015,08['  ]| cheerful mind$0$ and social temper by$4$ entering into the 
102:015,09['  ]| militia of his country, then embodied. 
102:015,10['  ]| $EM#N$Captain*Weston was a general$2$ favourite$0$; and when the 
102:015,11['  ]| chances of his military life had introduced him to$4$ $EM#V$Miss*Churchill, 
102:015,12['  ]| of a great Yorkshire family, and $EM#V$Miss*Churchill 
102:015,13['  ]| fell in$4$ love$0$ with him, nobody was surprized except her 
102:015,14['  ]| brother and his wife, who$6#1$ had never seen him, and who$6#1$ 
102:015,15['  ]| were full of pride and importance, which$6#1$ the connection 
102:015,16['  ]| would offend. 
102:015,17['  ]| $EM#V$Miss*Churchill, however, being$1$ of age, and with the full 
102:015,18['  ]| command$0$ of her fortune ~~ though her fortune bore$1#1$ no$2$ 
102:015,19['  ]| proportion to$4$ the family-estate ~~ was not to$9$ be dissuaded 
102:015,20['  ]| from the marriage, and it took place$0$ to$4$ the infinite 
102:015,21['  ]| mortification of $EM#W$Mr% and $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, who$6#1$ threw her 
102:015,22['  ]| off with due$2$ decorum. It was an unsuitable connection, 
102:015,23['  ]| and did not produce much happiness. $EM#V$Mrs%*Weston ought 
102:015,24['  ]| to$9$ have found more in$4$ it, for$3$ she had a husband whose$6#1$ 
102:015,25['  ]| warm$2$ heart and sweet temper made him think every*thing 
102:015,26['  ]| due$2$ to$4$ her in$4$ return$0$ for$4$ the great goodness of being$1$ 
102:015,27['  ]| in$4$ love$0$ with him; but though she had one sort of spirit, 
102:015,28['  ]| she had not the best. She had resolution enough to$9$ 
102:015,29['  ]| pursue her own$2$ will$0$ in$4$ spite$8$ of her brother, but not enough 
102:015,30['  ]| to$9$ refrain from unreasonable regrets at that$6#2$ brother's 
102:015,31['  ]| unreasonable anger$0$, nor from missing the luxuries of her 
102:015,32['  ]| former home. They lived beyond$4$ their income, but still$5$ 
102:015,33['  ]| it was nothing in$4$ comparison of Enscombe; she did not 
102:016,01['  ]| cease to$9$ love$1$ her husband, but she wanted at once to$9$ be the 
102:016,02['  ]| wife of $EM#N$Captain*Weston, and $EM#V$Miss*Churchill of Enscombe. 
102:016,03['  ]| $EM#N$Captain*Weston, who$6#1$ had been considered, especially 
102:016,04['  ]| by$4$ the $EM#W$Churchills, as making such an amazing match$0$, was 
102:016,05['  ]| proved to$9$ have much the worst of the bargain; for$3$ when 
102:016,06['  ]| his wife died after$4$ a three years' marriage, he was rather 
102:016,07['  ]| a poorer man than at first, and with a child to$9$ maintain. 
102:016,08['  ]| From the expense of the child, however, he was soon 
102:016,09['  ]| relieved. The boy had, with the additional softening 
102:016,10['  ]| claim$0$ of a lingering illness of his mother's, been the 
102:016,11['  ]| means$0$ of a sort of reconciliation; and $EM#W$Mr% and $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, 
102:016,12['  ]| having no$2$ children of their own$2$, nor any other 
102:016,13['  ]| young creature of equal$2$ kindred to$9$ care$1$ for$4$, offered to$9$ 
102:016,14['  ]| take the whole$2$ charge$0$ of the little $EM#E$Frank soon after$4$ her 
102:016,15['  ]| decease. Some scruples and some reluctance the widower-father 
102:016,16['  ]| may$1$ be supposed to$9$ have felt; but as they were 
102:016,17['  ]| overcome by$4$ other considerations, the child was given 
102:016,18['  ]| up$5$ to$4$ the care$0$ and the wealth of the $EM#W$Churchills, and he 
102:016,19['  ]| had only his own$2$ comfort$0$ to$9$ seek and his own$2$ situation 
102:016,20['  ]| to$9$ improve as he could. 
102:016,21['  ]| A complete$2$ change$0$ of life became desirable. He quitted 
102:016,22['  ]| the militia and engaged in$4$ trade, having brothers already 
102:016,23['  ]| established in$4$ a good way in$4$ London, which$6#1$ afforded him 
102:016,24['  ]| a favourable opening. It was a concern$0$ which$6#1$ brought 
102:016,25['  ]| just$2$ employment enough. He had still$5$ a small house in$4$ 
102:016,26['  ]| Highbury, where most of his leisure days were spent; 
102:016,27['  ]| and between useful occupation and the pleasures of 
102:016,28['  ]| society, the next eighteen or twenty years of his life passed 
102:016,29['  ]| cheerfully away. He had, by$4$ that$6#2$ time, realized an easy 
102:016,30['  ]| competence ~~ enough to$9$ secure$1$ the purchase$0$ of a little 
102:016,31['  ]| estate adjoining Highbury, which$6#1$ he had always longed 
102:016,32['  ]| for$4$ ~~ enough to$9$ marry a woman as portionless even$5$ as 
102:016,33['  ]| $EM#O$Miss*Taylor, and to$9$ live according to$4$ the wishes$0$ of his 
102:016,34['  ]| own$2$ friendly and social disposition. 
102:016,35['  ]| It was now some time since $EM#O$Miss*Taylor had begun to$9$ 
102:016,36['  ]| influence$1$ his schemes; but as it was not the tyrannic 
102:016,37['  ]| influence$0$ of youth on$4$ youth, it had not shaken his determination 
102:016,38['  ]| of never settling till he could purchase$1$ Randalls, 
102:017,01['  ]| and the sale of Randalls was long looked forward$5$ to$5$: but 
102:017,02['  ]| he had gone steadily on$5$, with these objects$0$ in$4$ view$0$, till 
102:017,03['  ]| they were accomplished. He had made his fortune, 
102:017,04['  ]| bought his house, and obtained his wife; and was beginning 
102:017,05['  ]| a new period of existence with every probability of 
102:017,06['  ]| greater happiness than in$4$ any yet passed through$5$. He 
102:017,07['  ]| had never been an unhappy man; his own$2$ temper had 
102:017,08['  ]| secured him from that$6#2$, even$5$ in$4$ his first marriage; but 
102:017,09['  ]| his second$2$ must shew$1$ him how delightful a well-judging 
102:017,10['  ]| and truly amiable woman could be, and must give him 
102:017,11['  ]| the pleasantest proof of its being$1$ a great deal$0$ better to$9$ 
102:017,12['  ]| chuse than to$9$ be chosen, to$9$ excite gratitude than to$9$ feel it. 
102:017,13['  ]| He had only himself to$9$ please in$4$ his choice$0$: his fortune 
102:017,14['  ]| was his own$2$; for$3$ as to$4$ $EM#E$Frank, it was more than being$1$ 
102:017,15['  ]| tacitly brought up$5$ as his uncle's heir, it had become so$5#1$ 
102:017,16['  ]| avowed an adoption as to$9$ have him assume the name$0$ of 
102:017,17['  ]| $EM#W$Churchill on$4$ coming of age. It was most unlikely, therefore, 
102:017,18['  ]| that$3$ he should ever want$1$ his father's assistance. 
102:017,19['  ]| His father had no$2$ apprehension of it. The aunt was a 
102:017,20['  ]| capricious woman, and governed her husband entirely; 
102:017,21['  ]| but it was not in$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's nature to$9$ imagine that$3$ any 
102:017,22['  ]| caprice could be strong enough to$9$ affect one so$5#1$ dear$2#1$, and, 
102:017,23['  ]| as he believed, so$5#1$ deservedly dear$2#1$. He saw his son every 
102:017,24['  ]| year in$4$ London, and was proud of him; and his fond 
102:017,25['  ]| report$0$ of him as a very fine young man had made Highbury 
102:017,26['  ]| feel a sort of pride in$4$ him too$5#2$. He was looked on$5$ 
102:017,27['  ]| as sufficiently belonging to$4$ the place$0$ to$9$ make$1$ his merits 
102:017,28['  ]| and prospects a kind$0$ of common$2$ concern$0$. 
102:017,29['  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill was one of the boasts of Highbury, 
102:017,30['  ]| and a lively curiosity to$9$ see him prevailed, though the 
102:017,31['  ]| compliment$0$ was so$5#1$ little returned that$3$ he had never been 
102:017,32['  ]| there in$4$ his life. His coming to$9$ visit$1$ his father had been 
102:017,33['  ]| often talked of but never achieved. 
102:017,34['  ]| Now, upon$4$ his father's marriage, it was very generally 
102:017,35['  ]| proposed, as a most proper attention, that$3$ the visit$0$ 
102:017,36['  ]| should take place$0$. There was not a dissentient voice on$4$ 
102:017,37['  ]| the subject$0$, either when $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry drank tea with 
102:017,38['  ]| $EM#C$Mrs% and $EM#D$Miss*Bates, or when $EM#C$Mrs% and $EM#D$Miss*Bates returned 
102:018,01['  ]| the visit$0$. Now was the time for$4$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill to$9$ 
102:018,02['  ]| come among them; and the hope$0$ strengthened when it 
102:018,03['  ]| was understood that$3$ he had written to$4$ his new mother 
102:018,04['  ]| on$4$ the occasion$0$. For$4$ a few days every morning visit$0$ in$4$ 
102:018,05['  ]| Highbury included some mention$0$ of the handsome letter 
102:018,06['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had received. 
102:018,06[X  ]| "I suppose you have heard 
102:018,07[X  ]| of the handsome letter $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill had written 
102:018,08[X  ]| to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston? I understand it was a very handsome 
102:018,09[X  ]| letter, indeed. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse told me of it. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
102:018,10[X  ]| saw the letter, and he says he never saw such 
102:018,11[X  ]| a handsome letter in$4$ his life." 
102:018,12['  ]| It was, indeed, a highly-prized letter. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
102:018,13['  ]| had, of course$8$, formed a very favourable idea of the 
102:018,14['  ]| young man; and such a pleasing attention was an irresistible 
102:018,15['  ]| proof of his great good sense, and a most welcome$2$ 
102:018,16['  ]| addition to$4$ every source and every expression of congratulation 
102:018,17['  ]| which$6#1$ her marriage had already secured. She felt 
102:018,18['  ]| herself a most fortunate woman; and she had lived long 
102:018,19['  ]| enough to$9$ know how fortunate she might well$5$ be thought$1$, 
102:018,20['  ]| where the only regret$0$ was for$4$ a partial separation from 
102:018,21['  ]| friends, whose$6#1$ friendship for$4$ her had never cooled, and 
102:018,22['  ]| who$6#1$ could ill bear$1$ to$9$ part$1$ with her! 
102:018,23['  ]| She knew that$3$ at times she must be missed; and could 
102:018,24['  ]| not think, without pain$0$, of $EM#A$Emma's losing a single 
102:018,25['  ]| pleasure, or suffering an hour's ennui, from the want$0$ of 
102:018,26['  ]| her companionableness: 
102:018,26@o   | but dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma was of no$2$ feeble 
102:018,27@o   | character; she was more equal$2$ to$4$ her situation than most 
102:018,28@o   | girls would have been, and had sense and energy and 
102:018,29@o   | spirits that$6#1$ might be hoped would bear$1$ her well$5$ and 
102:018,30@o   | happily through$4$ its little difficulties and privations. And 
102:018,31@o   | then there was such comfort$0$ in$4$ the very easy distance$0$ of 
102:018,32@o   | Randalls from Hartfield, so$5#1$ convenient for$4$ even$5$ solitary 
102:018,33@o   | female$2$ walking, and in$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's disposition and 
102:018,34@o   | circumstances, which$6#1$ would make$1$ the approaching season 
102:018,35@o   | no$2$ hindrance to$4$ their spending half the evenings in$4$ the 
102:018,36@o   | week together. 
102:018,37['  ]| Her situation was altogether the subject$0$ of hours of 
102:018,38['  ]| gratitude to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, and of moments only of regret$0$; 
102:019,01['  ]| and her satisfaction ~~ her more than satisfaction ~~ her 
102:019,02['  ]| cheerful enjoyment was so$5#1$ just$2$ and so$5#1$ apparent, that$3$ 
102:019,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, well$5$ as she knew her father, was sometimes taken 
102:019,04['  ]| by$4$ surprize$0$ at his being$1$ still$5$ able to$9$ pity$1$ 
102:019,04@p   | "poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor," 
102:019,05['  ]| when they left her at Randalls in$4$ the centre$0$ of 
102:019,06['  ]| every domestic$2$ comfort$0$, or saw her go away in$4$ the evening 
102:019,07['  ]| attended by$4$ her pleasant husband to$4$ a carriage of her 
102:019,08['  ]| own$2$. But never did she go without $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
102:019,09['  ]| giving a gentle sigh$0$, and saying: 
102:019,10[P  ]| "Ah! poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor. She would be very glad to$9$ stay$1$." 
102:019,11['  ]| There was no$2$ recovering $EM#O$Miss*Taylor ~~ nor much likelihood 
102:019,12['  ]| of ceasing to$9$ pity$1$ her: but a few weeks brought 
102:019,13['  ]| some alleviation to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse. The compliments 
102:019,14['  ]| of his neighbours were over; he was no$2$ longer teased by$4$ 
102:019,15['  ]| being$1$ wished joy of so$5#1$ sorrowful an event; and the 
102:019,16['  ]| wedding-cake, which$6#1$ had been a great distress$0$ to$4$ him, 
102:019,17['  ]| was all eat up$5$. His own$2$ stomach could bear$1$ nothing rich, 
102:019,18['  ]| and he could never believe other people to$9$ be different 
102:019,19['  ]| from himself. What was unwholesome to$4$ him, he regarded 
102:019,20['  ]| as unfit for$4$ any*body; and he had, therefore, earnestly 
102:019,21['  ]| tried to$9$ dissuade them from having any wedding-cake 
102:019,22['  ]| at all, and when that$6#2$ proved vain, as earnestly tried 
102:019,23['  ]| to$9$ prevent any*body's eating it. He had been at the 
102:019,24['  ]| pains of consulting $EM#W$Mr%*Perry, the apothecary, on$4$ the 
102:019,25['  ]| subject$0$. $EM#W$Mr%*Perry was an intelligent, gentlemanlike man, 
102:019,26['  ]| whose$6#1$ frequent visits were one of the comforts of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
102:019,27['  ]| life; and, upon$4$ being$1$ applied to$5$, he could 
102:019,28['  ]| not but acknowledge, (though it seemed rather against the 
102:019,29['  ]| bias$0$ of inclination,) that$3$ 
102:019,29@w   | wedding-cake might certainly 
102:019,30@w   | disagree with many ~~ perhaps with most people, unless 
102:019,31@w   | taken moderately. 
102:019,31['  ]| With such an opinion, in$4$ confirmation 
102:019,32['  ]| of his own$2$, $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse hoped to$9$ influence$1$ every 
102:019,33['  ]| visitor of the new-married pair$0$; but still$5$ the cake was 
102:019,34['  ]| eaten; and there was no$2$ rest$0#2$ for$4$ his benevolent nerves 
102:019,35['  ]| till it was all gone. 
102:019,36['  ]| There was a strange rumour in$4$ Highbury of all the little 
102:019,37['  ]| $EM#W3$Perrys being$1$ seen with a slice of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's wedding-cake 
102:019,38['  ]| in$4$ their hands: but $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse would never believe it. 
103:020,01['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was fond of society in$4$ his own$2$ way. 
103:020,02['  ]| He liked very much to$9$ have his friends come and see him; 
103:020,03['  ]| and from various united causes, from his long residence 
103:020,04['  ]| at Hartfield, and his good*nature, from his fortune, his 
103:020,05['  ]| house, and his daughter, he could command$1$ the visits of 
103:020,06['  ]| his own$2$ little circle, in$4$ a great measure$0$ as he liked. He 
103:020,07['  ]| had not much intercourse with any families beyond$4$ that$6#2$ 
103:020,08['  ]| circle; his horror of late hours and large dinner-parties 
103:020,09['  ]| made him unfit for$4$ any acquaintance, but such as would 
103:020,10['  ]| visit$1$ him on$4$ his own$2$ terms. Fortunately for$4$ him, Highbury, 
103:020,11['  ]| including Randalls in$4$ the same parish, and Donwell*Abbey 
103:020,12['  ]| in$4$ the parish adjoining, the seat of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
103:020,13['  ]| comprehended many such. Not unfrequently, through$4$ 
103:020,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's persuasion, he had some of the chosen and the 
103:020,15['  ]| best to$9$ dine with him, but evening-parties were what he 
103:020,16['  ]| preferred, and, unless he fancied himself at any time 
103:020,17['  ]| unequal to$4$ company, there was scarcely an evening in$4$ 
103:020,18['  ]| the week in$4$ which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma could not make$1$ up$5$ a card-table 
103:020,19['  ]| for$4$ him. 
103:020,20['  ]| Real, long-standing regard$0$ brought the $EM#N1$Westons and 
103:020,21['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; and by$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, a young man living 
103:020,22['  ]| alone without liking it, the privilege of exchanging any 
103:020,23['  ]| vacant evening of his own$2$ blank$2$ solitude for$4$ the elegancies 
103:020,24['  ]| and society of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's drawing-room and the 
103:020,25['  ]| smiles of his lovely daughter, was in$4$ no$2$ danger of being$1$ 
103:020,26['  ]| thrown away. 
103:020,27['  ]| After$4$ these came a second$2$ set$0$; among the most come-at-able 
103:020,28['  ]| of whom$6#1$ were $EM#C$Mrs% and $EM#D$Miss*Bates and $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, 
103:020,29['  ]| three ladies almost always at the service of an 
103:020,30['  ]| invitation from Hartfield, and who$6#1$ were fetched and 
103:020,31['  ]| carried home so$5#1$ often that$3$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse thought$1$ it no$2$ 
103:020,32['  ]| hardship for$4$ either $EM#ZI$James or the horses. Had it taken 
103:020,33['  ]| place$0$ only once a year, it would have been a grievance. 
103:021,01['  ]| $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, the widow of a former vicar of Highbury, 
103:021,02['  ]| was a very old lady, almost past$1$ every*thing but tea and 
103:021,03['  ]| quadrille. She lived with her single daughter in$4$ a very 
103:021,04['  ]| small way, and was considered with all the regard$0$ and 
103:021,05['  ]| respect$0$ which$6#1$ a harmless old lady, under such untoward 
103:021,06['  ]| circumstances, can excite. Her daughter enjoyed a most 
103:021,07['  ]| uncommon degree of popularity for$4$ a woman neither 
103:021,08['  ]| young, handsome, rich, nor married. $EM#D$Miss*Bates stood 
103:021,09['  ]| in$4$ the very worst predicament in$4$ the world for$4$ having 
103:021,10['  ]| much of the public$2$ favour$0$; and she had no$2$ intellectual 
103:021,11['  ]| superiority to$9$ make$1$ atonement to$4$ herself, or frighten 
103:021,12['  ]| those who$6#1$ might hate her, into outward respect$0$. She had 
103:021,13['  ]| never boasted$1$ either beauty or cleverness. Her youth had 
103:021,14['  ]| passed without distinction, and her middle of life was 
103:021,15['  ]| devoted to$4$ the care$0$ of a failing mother, and the endeavour$0$ 
103:021,16['  ]| to$9$ make$1$ a small income go as far as possible. And yet 
103:021,17['  ]| she was a happy woman, and a woman whom$6#1$ no*one 
103:021,18['  ]| named without good-will. It was her own$2$ universal good-will 
103:021,19['  ]| and contented temper which$6#1$ worked such wonders$0$. 
103:021,20['  ]| She loved every*body, was interested in$4$ every*body's 
103:021,21['  ]| happiness, quick-sighted to$4$ every*body's merits; thought$1$ 
103:021,22['  ]| herself a most fortunate creature, and surrounded with 
103:021,23['  ]| blessings in$4$ such an excellent mother and so$5#1$ many good 
103:021,24['  ]| neighbours and friends, and a home that$6#1$ wanted for$4$ 
103:021,25['  ]| nothing. The simplicity and cheerfulness of her nature, 
103:021,26['  ]| her contented and grateful spirit, were a recommendation 
103:021,27['  ]| to$4$ every*body and a mine$0$ of felicity to$4$ herself. She was 
103:021,28['  ]| a great talker upon$4$ little matters, which$6#1$ exactly suited 
103:021,29['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, full of trivial communications and 
103:021,30['  ]| harmless gossip. 
103:021,31['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard was the mistress of a School ~~ not of 
103:021,32['  ]| a seminary, or an establishment, or any*thing which$6#1$ 
103:021,33['  ]| professed, in$4$ long sentences of refined nonsense, to$9$ combine 
103:021,34['  ]| liberal acquirements with elegant morality upon$4$ new 
103:021,35['  ]| principles and new systems ~~ and where young ladies for$4$ 
103:021,36['  ]| enormous pay$0$ might be screwed out$5$ of health and into 
103:021,37['  ]| vanity ~~ but a real, honest, old-fashioned Boarding-school, 
103:021,38['  ]| where a reasonable quantity of accomplishments were sold 
103:022,01['  ]| at a reasonable price, and where girls might be sent to$9$ 
103:022,02['  ]| be out$5$ of the way and scramble themselves into a little 
103:022,03['  ]| education, without any danger of coming back$5$ prodigies. 
103:022,04['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's school was in$4$ high repute ~~ and very 
103:022,05['  ]| deservedly; for$3$ Highbury was reckoned a particularly 
103:022,06['  ]| healthy spot: she had an ample house and garden, gave 
103:022,07['  ]| the children plenty of wholesome food, let them run$1$ about$5$ 
103:022,08['  ]| a great deal$0$ in$4$ the summer, and in$4$ winter dressed their 
103:022,09['  ]| chilblains with her own$2$ hands. It was no$2$ wonder$0$ that$3$ 
103:022,10['  ]| a train of twenty young couple now walked after$4$ her to$4$ 
103:022,11['  ]| church. She was a plain, motherly kind$0$ of woman, who$6#1$ 
103:022,12['  ]| had worked hard in$4$ her youth, and now thought$1$ herself 
103:022,13['  ]| entitled to$4$ the occasional holiday of a tea-visit; and 
103:022,14['  ]| having formerly owed much to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's kindness, 
103:022,15['  ]| felt his particular claim$0$ on$4$ her to$9$ leave$1$ her neat parlour 
103:022,16['  ]| hung round$5$ with fancy-work whenever she could, and 
103:022,17['  ]| win or lose a few sixpences by$4$ his fireside. 
103:022,18['  ]| These were the ladies whom$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma found herself very 
103:022,19['  ]| frequently able to$9$ collect; and happy was she, for$4$ her 
103:022,20['  ]| father's sake, in$4$ the power; though, as far as she was 
103:022,21['  ]| herself concerned, it was no$2$ remedy for$4$ the absence of 
103:022,22['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. She was delighted to$9$ see her father look$1$ 
103:022,23['  ]| comfortable, and very much pleased with herself for$4$ 
103:022,24['  ]| contriving things so$5#1$ well$5$; but the quiet$2$ prosings of three 
103:022,25['  ]| such women made her feel that$3$ every evening so$5#2$ spent, 
103:022,26['  ]| was indeed one of the long evenings she had fearfully 
103:022,27['  ]| anticipated. 
103:022,28['  ]| As she sat one morning, looking forward$5$ to$4$ exactly such 
103:022,29['  ]| a close$0$ of the present$2$ day, a note$0$ was brought from 
103:022,30['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, requesting, in$4$ most respectful terms, to$9$ be 
103:022,31['  ]| allowed to$9$ bring $EM#M$Miss*Smith with her; a most welcome$2$ 
103:022,32['  ]| request$0$: for$3$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith was a girl of seventeen whom$6#1$ 
103:022,33['  ]| $EM#A$Emma knew very well$5$ by$4$ sight and had long felt an 
103:022,34['  ]| interest$0$ in$4$, on$4$ account$0$ of her beauty. A very gracious 
103:022,35['  ]| invitation was returned, and the evening no$2$ longer dreaded 
103:022,36['  ]| by$4$ the fair mistress of the mansion. 
103:022,37['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet*Smith was the natural$2$ daughter of somebody. 
103:022,38['  ]| Somebody had placed her, several years back$5$, at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's 
103:023,01['  ]| school, and somebody had lately raised her 
103:023,02['  ]| from the condition$0$ of scholar to$4$ that$6#2$ of parlour-boarder. 
103:023,03['  ]| This was all that$6#1$ was generally known of her history. 
103:023,04['  ]| She had no$2$ visible friends but what had been acquired 
103:023,05['  ]| at Highbury, and was now just$5$ returned from a long visit$0$ 
103:023,06['  ]| in$4$ the country to$4$ some young ladies who$6#1$ had been at 
103:023,07['  ]| school there with her. 
103:023,08['  ]| She was a very pretty$2$ girl, and her beauty happened 
103:023,09['  ]| to$9$ be of a sort which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma particularly admired. She 
103:023,10['  ]| was short, plump and fair, with a fine bloom, blue eyes, 
103:023,11['  ]| light$2$ hair, regular features, and a look$0$ of great sweetness; 
103:023,12['  ]| and before$4$ the end$0$ of the evening, $EM#A$Emma was as much 
103:023,13['  ]| pleased with her manners as her person, and quite determined 
103:023,14['  ]| to$9$ continue the acquaintance. 
103:023,15@a   | She was not struck by$4$ any*thing remarkably clever in$4$ 
103:023,16@a   | $EM#M$Miss*Smith's conversation, but she found her altogether 
103:023,17@a   | very engaging ~~ not inconveniently shy, not unwilling to$9$ 
103:023,18@a   | talk$1$ ~~ and yet so$5#1$ far from pushing, shewing so$5#1$ proper 
103:023,19@a   | and becoming a deference, seeming so$5#1$ pleasantly grateful 
103:023,20@a   | for$4$ being$1$ admitted to$4$ Hartfield, and so$5#1$ artlessly impressed 
103:023,21@a   | by$4$ the appearance of every*thing in$4$ so$5#1$ superior a style to$4$ 
103:023,22@a   | what she had been used to$4$, that$3$ she must have good sense 
103:023,23@a   | and deserve encouragement. Encouragement should be 
103:023,24@a   | given. Those soft blue eyes and all those natural$2$ graces 
103:023,25@a   | should not be wasted on$4$ the inferior society of Highbury 
103:023,26@a   | and its connections. The acquaintance she had already 
103:023,27@a   | formed were unworthy of her. The friends from whom$6#1$ 
103:023,28@a   | she had just$5$ parted, though very good sort of people, must 
103:023,29@a   | be doing her harm$0$. 
103:023,29['  ]| They were a family of the name$0$ of 
103:023,30['  ]| $EM#R1$Martin, whom$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma well$5$ knew by$4$ character, as renting 
103:023,31['  ]| a large farm of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, and residing in$4$ the parish 
103:023,32['  ]| of Donwell ~~ 
103:023,32@a   | very creditably she believed ~~ she knew 
103:023,33@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley thought$1$ highly of them ~~ but they must be 
103:023,34@a   | coarse and unpolished, and very unfit to$9$ be the intimates 
103:023,35@a   | of a girl who$6#1$ wanted only a little more knowledge and 
103:023,36@a   | elegance to$9$ be quite perfect$2$. \She\ would notice$1$ her; she 
103:023,37@a   | would improve her; she would detach her from her bad 
103:023,38@a   | acquaintance, and introduce her into good society; she 
103:024,01@a   | would form$1$ her opinions and her manners. It would be 
103:024,02@a   | an interesting, and certainly a very kind$2$ undertaking; 
103:024,03@a   | highly becoming her own$2$ situation in$4$ life, her leisure, and 
103:024,04@a   | powers. 
103:024,05['  ]| She was so$5#1$ busy in$4$ admiring those soft blue eyes, in$4$ 
103:024,06['  ]| talking and listening, and forming all these schemes in$4$ the 
103:024,07['  ]| in-betweens, that$3$ the evening flew away at a very unusual 
103:024,08['  ]| rate$0$; and the supper-table, which$6#1$ always closed such 
103:024,09['  ]| parties, and for$4$ which$6#1$ she had been used to$9$ sit and watch$1$ 
103:024,10['  ]| the due$2$ time, was all set$1$ out$5$ and ready, and moved 
103:024,11['  ]| forwards to$4$ the fire$0$, before$3$ she was aware. With an 
103:024,12['  ]| alacrity beyond$4$ the common$2$ impulse of a spirit which$6#1$ yet 
103:024,13['  ]| was never indifferent to$4$ the credit$0$ of doing every*thing 
103:024,14['  ]| well$5$ and attentively, with the real good-will of a mind$0$ 
103:024,15['  ]| delighted with its own$2$ ideas, did she then do all the 
103:024,16['  ]| honours of the meal, and help$1$ and recommend the minced 
103:024,17['  ]| chicken and scalloped oysters with an urgency which$6#1$ she 
103:024,18['  ]| knew would be acceptable to$4$ the early hours and civil 
103:024,19['  ]| scruples of their guests. 
103:024,20['  ]| Upon$4$ such occasions poor $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's feelings 
103:024,21['  ]| were in$4$ sad warfare. He loved to$9$ have the cloth laid, 
103:024,22['  ]| because it had been the fashion$0$ of his youth; but his 
103:024,23['  ]| conviction of suppers being$1$ very unwholesome made him 
103:024,24['  ]| rather sorry to$9$ see any*thing put on$4$ it; and while$3$ his 
103:024,25['  ]| hospitality would have welcomed his visitors to$4$ every*thing, 
103:024,26['  ]| his care$0$ for$4$ their health made him grieve that$3$ they 
103:024,27['  ]| would eat. 
103:024,28['  ]| Such another small basin of thin gruel as his own$2$, was 
103:024,29['  ]| all that$6#1$ he could, with thorough self-approbation, 
103:024,30['  ]| recommend, though he might constrain himself, while$3$ the 
103:024,31['  ]| ladies were comfortably clearing the nicer things, to$9$ say: 
103:024,32[P  ]| "$EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, let me propose your venturing on$4$ one of 
103:024,33[P  ]| these eggs. An egg boiled very soft is not unwholesome. 
103:024,34[P  ]| $EM#ZZN$Serle understands boiling an egg better than any*body. 
103:024,35[P  ]| I would not recommend an egg boiled by$4$ any*body else ~~ 
103:024,36[P  ]| but you need$1$ not be afraid ~~ they are very small, you 
103:024,37[P  ]| see ~~ one of our small eggs will$1$ not hurt you. $EM#D$Miss*Bates, 
103:024,38[P  ]| let $EM#A$Emma help$1$ you to$4$ a \little\ bit of tart ~~ a \very\ little bit. 
103:025,01[P  ]| Ours are all apple*tarts. You need$1$ not be afraid of unwholesome 
103:025,02[P  ]| preserves here. I do not advise the custard. 
103:025,03[P  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, what say you to$4$ \half\ a glass of wine? 
103:025,04[P  ]| A \small\ half glass ~~ put into a tumbler of water? I do 
103:025,05[P  ]| not think it could disagree with you." 
103:025,06['  ]| $EM#A$Emma allowed her father to$9$ talk$1$ ~~ but supplied her 
103:025,07['  ]| visitors in$4$ a much more satisfactory style; and on$4$ the 
103:025,08['  ]| present$2$ evening had particular pleasure in$4$ sending them 
103:025,09['  ]| away happy. The happiness of $EM#M$Miss*Smith was quite 
103:025,10['  ]| equal$2$ to$4$ her intentions. $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse was so$5#1$ great 
103:025,11['  ]| a personage in$4$ Highbury, that$3$ the prospect of the introduction 
103:025,12['  ]| had given as much panic as pleasure ~~ but the 
103:025,13['  ]| humble$2$, grateful, little girl went off with highly gratified 
103:025,14['  ]| feelings, delighted with the affability with which$6#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
103:025,15['  ]| had treated her all the evening, and actually 
103:025,16['  ]| shaken hands with her at last$0$! 
104:026,01['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet*Smith's intimacy at Hartfield was soon 
104:026,02['  ]| a settled thing. Quick$2$ and decided in$4$ her ways, $EM#A$Emma 
104:026,03['  ]| lost no$2$ time in$4$ inviting, encouraging, and telling her to$9$ 
104:026,04['  ]| come very often; and as their acquaintance increased, 
104:026,05['  ]| so$3$ did their satisfaction in$4$ each other. As a walking 
104:026,06['  ]| companion, $EM#A$Emma had very early foreseen how useful 
104:026,07['  ]| she might find her. In$4$ that$6#2$ respect$0$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's loss 
104:026,08['  ]| had been important. Her father never went beyond$4$ the 
104:026,09['  ]| shrubbery, where two divisions of the grounds sufficed 
104:026,10['  ]| him for$4$ his long walk$0$, or his short, as the year varied; 
104:026,11['  ]| and since $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's marriage her exercise$0$ had been 
104:026,12['  ]| too$5#1$ much confined. She had ventured once alone to$4$ 
104:026,13['  ]| Randalls, but it was not pleasant; and a $EM#M$Harriet*Smith, 
104:026,14['  ]| therefore, one whom$6#1$ she could summon at any time to$4$ 
104:026,15['  ]| a walk$0$, would be a valuable addition to$4$ her privileges. 
104:026,16['  ]| But in$4$ every respect$0$ as she saw more of her, she approved 
104:026,17['  ]| her, and was confirmed in$4$ all her kind$2$ designs. 
104:026,18@a   | $EM#M$Harriet certainly was not clever, but she had a sweet, 
104:026,19@a   | docile, grateful disposition; was totally free from conceit; 
104:026,20@a   | and only desiring to$9$ be guided by$4$ any*one she looked up$5$ 
104:026,21@a   | to$4$. Her early attachment to$4$ herself was very amiable; 
104:026,22@a   | and her inclination for$4$ good company, and power of 
104:026,23@a   | appreciating what was elegant and clever, shewed that$3$ 
104:026,24@a   | there was no$2$ want$0$ of taste, though strength of understanding 
104:026,25@a   | must not be expected. Altogether she was 
104:026,26@a   | quite convinced of $EM#M$Harriet*Smith's being$1$ exactly the 
104:026,27@a   | young friend she wanted ~~ exactly the something which$6#1$ 
104:026,28@a   | her home required. Such a friend as $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was 
104:026,29@a   | out$5$ of the question$0$. Two such could never be granted. 
104:026,30@a   | Two such she did not want$1$. It was quite a different sort 
104:026,31@a   | of thing ~~ a sentiment distinct and independent. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
104:026,32@a   | was the object$0$ of a regard$0$, which$6#1$ had its basis 
104:026,33@a   | in$4$ gratitude and esteem$0$. $EM#M$Harriet would be loved as one 
104:027,01@a   | to$4$ whom$6#1$ she could be useful. For$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston there was 
104:027,02@a   | nothing to$9$ be done; for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet every*thing. 
104:027,03['  ]| Her first attempts at usefulness were in$4$ an endeavour$0$ 
104:027,04['  ]| to$9$ find out$5$ who$6#1$ were the parents; but $EM#M$Harriet could not 
104:027,05['  ]| tell. She was ready to$9$ tell every*thing in$4$ her power, but 
104:027,06['  ]| on$4$ this subject$0$ questions were vain. $EM#A$Emma was obliged 
104:027,07['  ]| to$9$ fancy$1$ what she liked ~~ but 
104:027,07@a   | she could never believe that$3$ 
104:027,08@a   | in$4$ the same situation \she\ should not have discovered the 
104:027,09@a   | truth. $EM#M$Harriet had no$2$ penetration. She had been 
104:027,10@a   | satisfied to$9$ hear and believe just$5$ what $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard chose 
104:027,11@a   | to$9$ tell her; and looked no$2$ farther. 
104:027,12['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, and the teachers, and the girls, and the 
104:027,13['  ]| affairs of the school in$4$ general$0$, formed naturally a great 
104:027,14['  ]| part$0$ of her conversation ~~ and but for$4$ her acquaintance 
104:027,15['  ]| with the $EM#R1$Martins of Abbey-Mill-Farm, it must have been 
104:027,16['  ]| the whole$0$. But the $EM#R1$Martins occupied her thoughts a good 
104:027,17['  ]| deal$0$; she had spent two very happy months with them, 
104:027,18['  ]| and now loved to$9$ talk$1$ of the pleasures of her visit$0$, and 
104:027,19['  ]| describe the many comforts and wonders$0$ of the place$0$. 
104:027,20['  ]| $EM#A$Emma encouraged her talkativeness ~~ amused by$4$ such 
104:027,21['  ]| a picture$0$ of another set$0$ of beings, and enjoying the 
104:027,22['  ]| youthful simplicity which$6#1$ could speak with so$5#1$ much 
104:027,23['  ]| exultation of $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin's having 
104:027,23[M  ]| "\two\ parlours, two 
104:027,24[M  ]| very good parlours indeed; one of them quite as large as 
104:027,25[M  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's drawing-room; and of her having an 
104:027,26[M  ]| upper maid who$6#1$ had lived five-and-twenty years with 
104:027,27[M  ]| her; and of their having eight cows, two of them Alderneys, 
104:027,28[M  ]| and one a little Welch cow, a very pretty$2$ little Welch 
104:027,29[M  ]| cow, indeed; and of $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin's saying, as she was so$5#1$ 
104:027,30[M  ]| fond of it, it should be called \her\ cow; and of their 
104:027,31[M  ]| having a very handsome summer-house in$4$ their garden, 
104:027,32[M  ]| where some day next year they were all to$9$ drink tea: ~~ 
104:027,33[M  ]| a very handsome summer-house, large enough to$9$ hold$1$ 
104:027,34[M  ]| a dozen people." 
104:027,35['  ]| For$4$ some time she was amused, without thinking beyond$4$ 
104:027,36['  ]| the immediate cause; but as she came to$9$ understand the 
104:027,37['  ]| family better, other feelings arose. 
104:027,37@a   | She had taken up$5$ 
104:027,38@a   | a wrong idea, fancying it was a mother and daughter, 
104:028,01@a   | a son and son's wife, who$6#1$ all lived together; but when 
104:028,02@a   | it appeared that$3$ the $EM#R$Mr%*Martin, who$6#1$ bore$1#1$ a part$0$ in$4$ the 
104:028,03@a   | narrative, and was always mentioned with approbation 
104:028,04@a   | for$4$ his great good-nature in$4$ doing something or other, 
104:028,05@a   | was a single man; that$3$ there was no$2$ young $EM#R1$Mrs%*Martin, 
104:028,06@a   | no$2$ wife in$4$ the case; she did suspect danger to$4$ her poor 
104:028,07@a   | little friend from all this hospitality and kindness ~~ and 
104:028,08@a   | that$3$ if she were not taken care$0$ of, she might be required 
104:028,09@a   | to$9$ sink herself for*ever. 
104:028,10['  ]| With this inspiriting notion, her questions increased in$4$ 
104:028,11['  ]| number and meaning; and she particularly led $EM#M$Harriet 
104:028,12['  ]| to$9$ talk$1$ more of $EM#R$Mr%*Martin, ~~ and there was evidently no$2$ 
104:028,13['  ]| dislike$0$ to$4$ it. $EM#M$Harriet was very ready to$9$ speak of the 
104:028,14['  ]| share$0$ he had had in$4$ their moonlight walks$0$ and merry 
104:028,15['  ]| evening games; and dwelt a good deal$0$ upon$4$ his being$1$ 
104:028,16['  ]| so$5#1$ very good-humoured and obliging. 
104:028,16[M  ]| "He had gone 
104:028,17[M  ]| three miles round$5$ one day, in$4$ order to$9$ bring her some 
104:028,18[M  ]| walnuts, because she had said how fond she was of them ~~ 
104:028,19[M  ]| and in$4$ every*thing else he was so$5#1$ very obliging! He had 
104:028,20[M  ]| his shepherd's son into the parlour one night on$4$ purpose 
104:028,21[M  ]| to$9$ sing to$4$ her. She was very fond of singing. He could 
104:028,22[M  ]| sing a little himself. She believed he was very clever, 
104:028,23[M  ]| and understood every*thing. He had a very fine flock; 
104:028,24[M  ]| and while$3$ she was with them, he had been bid more for$4$ 
104:028,25[M  ]| his wool than any*body in$4$ the country. She believed 
104:028,26[M  ]| every*body spoke well$5$ of him. His mother and sisters 
104:028,27[M  ]| were very fond of him. $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin had told her one day, 
104:028,28['  ]| (and there was a blush$0$ as she said it,) 
104:028,28[M  ]| that$3$ it was impossible 
104:028,29[M  ]| for$4$ any*body to$9$ be a better son; and therefore she 
104:028,30[M  ]| was sure whenever he married he would make$1$ a good 
104:028,31[M  ]| husband. Not that$3$ she \wanted\ him to$9$ marry. She was in$4$ 
104:028,32[M  ]| no$2$ hurry$0$ at all." 
104:028,33@a   | "Well$5$ done, $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin!" 
104:028,33['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#a$Emma. 
104:028,33@a   | "You 
104:028,34@a   | know what you are about$4$." 
104:028,35[M  ]| "And when she had come away, $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin was so$5#1$ 
104:028,36[M  ]| very kind$2$ as to$9$ send $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard a beautiful goose: the 
104:028,37[M  ]| finest goose $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard had ever seen. $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard 
104:028,38[M  ]| had dressed it on$4$ a Sunday, and asked all the three 
104:029,01[M  ]| teachers, $EM#V$Miss*Nash, and $EM#ZZK$Miss*Prince, and $EM#ZZL$Miss*Richardson, 
104:029,02[M  ]| to$9$ sup with her." 
104:029,03[A  ]| "$EM#R$Mr%*Martin, I suppose, is not a man of information 
104:029,04[A  ]| beyond$4$ the line of his own$2$ business. He does not read?" 
104:029,05[M  ]| "Oh, yes! ~~ that$6#2$ is, no$7$ ~~ I do not know ~~ but I believe 
104:029,06[M  ]| he has read a good deal$0$ ~~ but not what you would think 
104:029,07[M  ]| any*thing of. He reads the Agricultural*Reports and some 
104:029,08[M  ]| other books, that$6#1$ lay$1#2$ in$4$ one of the window seats ~~ but he 
104:029,09[M  ]| reads all \them\ to$4$ himself. But sometimes of an evening, 
104:029,10[M  ]| before$3$ we went to$4$ cards, he would read something aloud 
104:029,11[M  ]| out$5$ of the Elegant*Extracts ~~ very entertaining. And 
104:029,12[M  ]| I know he had read the Vicar*of*Wakefield. He never 
104:029,13[M  ]| read the Romance*of*the*Forest, nor the Children*of*the*Abbey. 
104:029,14[M  ]| He had never heard of such books before$3$ I mentioned 
104:029,15[M  ]| them, but he is determined to$9$ get them now as 
104:029,16[M  ]| soon as ever he can." 
104:029,17['  ]| The next question$0$ was: 
104:029,18[A  ]| "What sort of looking man is $EM#R$Mr%*Martin?" 
104:029,19[M  ]| "Oh! not handsome ~~ not at all handsome. I thought$1$ 
104:029,20[M  ]| him very plain at first, but I do not think him so$5#1$ plain 
104:029,21[M  ]| now. One does not, you know, after$4$ a time. But, did you 
104:029,22[M  ]| never see him! He is in$4$ Highbury every now and then, 
104:029,23[M  ]| and he is sure to$9$ ride$1$ through$5$ every week in$4$ his way to$4$ 
104:029,24[M  ]| Kingston. He has passed you very often." 
104:029,25[A  ]| "That$6#2$ may$1$ be ~~ and I may$1$ have seen him fifty times, 
104:029,26[A  ]| but without having any idea of his name$0$. A young 
104:029,27[A  ]| farmer, whether on$4$ horseback or on$4$ foot, is the very last$2$ 
104:029,28[A  ]| sort of person to$9$ raise my curiosity. The yeomanry are 
104:029,29[A  ]| precisely the order of people with whom$6#1$ I feel I can have 
104:029,30[A  ]| nothing to$9$ do. A degree or two lower$2$, and a creditable 
104:029,31[A  ]| appearance might interest$1$ me; I might hope$1$ to$9$ be useful 
104:029,32[A  ]| to$4$ their families in$4$ some way or other. But a farmer can 
104:029,33[A  ]| need$1$ none of my help$0$, and is therefore in$4$ one sense as 
104:029,34[A  ]| much above$4$ my notice$0$ as in$4$ every other he is below it." 
104:029,35[M  ]| "To$9$ be sure. Oh! yes, it is not likely you should ever 
104:029,36[M  ]| have observed him ~~ but he knows you very well$5$ indeed ~~ 
104:029,37[M  ]| I mean$1$ by$4$ sight." 
104:029,38[A  ]| "I have no$2$ doubt$0$ of his being$1$ a very respectable young 
104:030,01[A  ]| man. I know indeed that$3$ he is so$5#2$; and as such wish$1$ him 
104:030,02[A  ]| well$5$. What do you imagine his age to$9$ be?" 
104:030,03[M  ]| "He was four-and-twenty the 8th of last$2$ June, and my 
104:030,04[M  ]| birth-day is the 23d ~~ just$5$ a fortnight and a day's 
104:030,05[M  ]| difference! which$6#1$ is very odd!" 
104:030,06[A  ]| "Only four-and-twenty. That$6#2$ is too$5#1$ young to$9$ settle. 
104:030,07[A  ]| His mother is perfectly right$2#1$ not to$9$ be in$4$ a hurry$0$. They 
104:030,08[A  ]| seem very comfortable as they are, and if she were to$9$ 
104:030,09[A  ]| take any pains to$9$ marry him, she would probably repent 
104:030,10[A  ]| it. Six years hence, if he could meet$1$ with a good sort 
104:030,11[A  ]| of young woman in$4$ the same rank$0$ as his own$2$, with a little 
104:030,12[A  ]| money, it might be very desirable." 
104:030,13[M  ]| "Six years hence! dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, he would be 
104:030,14[M  ]| thirty years old!" 
104:030,15[A  ]| "Well$7$, and that$6#2$ is as early as most men can afford to$9$ 
104:030,16[A  ]| marry, who$6#1$ are not born$1#1$ to$4$ an independence. $EM#R$Mr%*Martin, 
104:030,17[A  ]| I imagine, has his fortune entirely to$9$ make$1$ ~~ cannot be 
104:030,18[A  ]| at all beforehand with the world. Whatever money he 
104:030,19[A  ]| might come into when his father died, whatever his share$0$ 
104:030,20[A  ]| of the family property, it is, I dare$1#2$ say, all afloat, all 
104:030,21[A  ]| employed in$4$ his stock, and so$5#2$ forth; and though, with 
104:030,22[A  ]| diligence and good luck, he may$1$ be rich in$4$ time, it is next 
104:030,23[A  ]| to$4$ impossible that$3$ he should have realised any*thing yet." 
104:030,24[M  ]| "To$9$ be sure, so$5#2$ it is. But they live very comfortably. 
104:030,25[M  ]| They have no$2$ in-doors man ~~ else they do not want$1$ for$4$ 
104:030,26[M  ]| any*thing; and $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin talks of taking a boy another 
104:030,27[M  ]| year." 
104:030,28[A  ]| "I wish$1$ you may$1$ not get into a scrape, $EM#M$Harriet, whenever 
104:030,29[A  ]| he does marry; ~~ I mean$1$, as to$4$ being$1$ acquainted 
104:030,30[A  ]| with his wife ~~ for$3$ though his sisters, from a superior 
104:030,31[A  ]| education, are not to$9$ be altogether objected to$5$, it does 
104:030,32[A  ]| not follow that$3$ he might marry any*body at all fit$2$ for$4$ you 
104:030,33[A  ]| to$9$ notice$1$. The misfortune of your birth$0#1$ ought to$9$ make$1$ 
104:030,34[A  ]| you particularly careful as to$4$ your associates$0$. There can 
104:030,35[A  ]| be no$2$ doubt$0$ of your being$1$ a gentleman's daughter, and 
104:030,36[A  ]| you must support$1$ your claim$0$ to$4$ that$6#2$ station by$4$ every*thing 
104:030,37[A  ]| within your own$2$ power, or there will$1$ be plenty of 
104:030,38[A  ]| people who$6#1$ would take pleasure in$4$ degrading you." 
104:031,01[M  ]| "Yes, to$9$ be sure ~~ I suppose there are. But while$3$ 
104:031,02[M  ]| I visit$1$ at Hartfield, and you are so$5#1$ kind$2$ to$4$ me, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
104:031,03[M  ]| I am not afraid of what any*body can do." 
104:031,04[A  ]| "You understand the force$0$ of influence$0$ pretty$5$ well$5$, 
104:031,05[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet; but I would have you so$5#1$ firmly established in$4$ 
104:031,06[A  ]| good society, as to$9$ be independent even$5$ of Hartfield and 
104:031,07[A  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. I want$1$ to$9$ see you permanently well$5$ 
104:031,08[A  ]| connected ~~ and to$4$ that$6#2$ end$0$ it will$1$ be advisable to$9$ have 
104:031,09[A  ]| as few odd acquaintance as may$1$ be; and, therefore, I say 
104:031,10[A  ]| that$3$ if you should still$5$ be in$4$ this country when $EM#R$Mr%*Martin 
104:031,11[A  ]| marries, I wish$1$ you may$1$ not be drawn in$5$, by$4$ your intimacy 
104:031,12[A  ]| with the sisters, to$9$ be acquainted with the wife, who$6#1$ will$1$ 
104:031,13[A  ]| probably be some mere farmer's daughter, without 
104:031,14[A  ]| education." 
104:031,15[M  ]| "To$9$ be sure. Yes. Not that$3$ I think $EM#R$Mr%*Martin would 
104:031,16[M  ]| ever marry any*body but what had had some education ~~ 
104:031,17[M  ]| and been very well$5$ brought up$5$. However, I do not mean$1$ 
104:031,18[M  ]| to$9$ set$1$ up$5$ my opinion against your's ~~ and I am sure I shall 
104:031,19[M  ]| not wish$1$ for$4$ the acquaintance of his wife. I shall always 
104:031,20[M  ]| have a great regard$0$ for$4$ the $EM#R4$Miss*Martins, especially 
104:031,21[M  ]| $EM#R3$Elizabeth, and should be very sorry to$9$ give them up$5$, for$3$ 
104:031,22[M  ]| they are quite as well$5$ educated as me. But if he marries 
104:031,23[M  ]| a very ignorant, vulgar woman, certainly I had better not 
104:031,24[M  ]| visit$1$ her, if I can help$1$ it." 
104:031,25['  ]| $EM#A$Emma watched her through$4$ the fluctuations of this 
104:031,26['  ]| speech, and saw no$2$ alarming symptoms of love$0$. The 
104:031,27['  ]| young man had been the first admirer, but she trusted 
104:031,28['  ]| there was no$2$ other hold$0$, and that$3$ there would be no$2$ 
104:031,29['  ]| serious$2$ difficulty on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's side$0$ to$9$ oppose any friendly 
104:031,30['  ]| arrangement of her own$2$. 
104:031,31['  ]| They met $EM#R$Mr%*Martin the very next day, as they were 
104:031,32['  ]| walking on$4$ the Donwell road. He was on$4$ foot, and after$4$ 
104:031,33['  ]| looking very respectfully at her, looked with most unfeigned 
104:031,34['  ]| satisfaction at her companion. $EM#A$Emma was not 
104:031,35['  ]| sorry to$9$ have such an opportunity of survey; and walking 
104:031,36['  ]| a few yards forward$5$, while$3$ they talked together, soon 
104:031,37['  ]| made her quick$2$ eye sufficiently acquainted with $EM#R$Mr%*Robert*Martin. 
104:031,38@a   | His appearance was very neat, and he looked 
104:032,01@a   | like$4$ a sensible$2#2$ young man, but his person had no$2$ 
104:032,02@a   | other advantage; and when he came to$9$ be contrasted 
104:032,03@a   | with gentlemen, she thought$1$ he must lose all the ground 
104:032,04@a   | he had gained in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's inclination. $EM#M$Harriet was not 
104:032,05@a   | insensible of manner; she had voluntarily noticed her 
104:032,06@a   | father's gentleness with admiration as well$5$ as wonder$0$. 
104:032,07@a   | $EM#R$Mr%*Martin looked as if he did not know what manner was. 
104:032,08['  ]| They remained but a few minutes together, as $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
104:032,09['  ]| must not be kept waiting; and $EM#M$Harriet then 
104:032,10['  ]| came running to$4$ her with a smiling face$0$, and in$4$ a flutter 
104:032,11['  ]| of spirits, which$6#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse hoped very soon to$9$ 
104:032,12['  ]| compose. 
104:032,13[M  ]| "Only think of our happening to$9$ meet$1$ him! ~~ How 
104:032,14[M  ]| very odd! It was quite a chance$0$, he said, that$3$ he had 
104:032,15[M  ]| not gone round$5$ by$4$ Randalls. He did not think we ever 
104:032,16[M  ]| walked this road. He thought$1$ we walked towards Randalls 
104:032,17[M  ]| most days. He has not been able to$9$ get the Romance*of*the*Forest 
104:032,18[M  ]| yet. He was so$5#1$ busy the last$2$ time he was 
104:032,19[M  ]| at Kingston that$3$ he quite forgot it, but he goes again 
104:032,20[M  ]| to-morrow. So$5#1$ very odd we should happen to$9$ meet$1$! 
104:032,21[M  ]| Well$7$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, is he like$4$ what you expected? 
104:032,22[M  ]| What do you think of him? Do you think him so$5#1$ very 
104:032,23[M  ]| plain?" 
104:032,24[A  ]| "He is very plain, undoubtedly ~~ remarkably plain: ~~ 
104:032,25[A  ]| but that$6#2$ is nothing, compared with his entire want$0$ of 
104:032,26[A  ]| gentility. I had no$2$ right$0$ to$9$ expect much, and I did not 
104:032,27[A  ]| expect much; but I had no$2$ idea that$3$ he could be so$5#1$ very 
104:032,28[A  ]| clownish, so$5#1$ totally without air. I had imagined him, 
104:032,29[A  ]| I confess, a degree or two nearer gentility." 
104:032,30[M  ]| "To$9$ be sure," 
104:032,30['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet, in$4$ a mortified voice, 
104:032,30[M  ]| "he is 
104:032,31[M  ]| not so$5#1$ genteel as real gentlemen." 
104:032,32[A  ]| "I think, $EM#M$Harriet, since your acquaintance with us, 
104:032,33[A  ]| you have been repeatedly in$4$ the company of some, such 
104:032,34[A  ]| very real gentlemen, that$3$ you must yourself be struck 
104:032,35[A  ]| with the difference in$4$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin. At Hartfield you have 
104:032,36[A  ]| had very good specimens of well$5$ educated, well$5$ bred men. 
104:032,37[A  ]| I should be surprized if, after$4$ seeing them, you could be 
104:032,38[A  ]| in$4$ company with $EM#R$Mr%*Martin again without perceiving 
104:033,01[A  ]| him to$9$ be a very inferior creature ~~ and rather wondering 
104:033,02[A  ]| at yourself for$4$ having ever thought$1$ him at all agreeable 
104:033,03[A  ]| before$5$. Do not you begin to$9$ feel that$6#2$ now? Were not 
104:033,04[A  ]| you struck? I am sure you must have been struck by$4$ 
104:033,05[A  ]| his awkward look$0$ and abrupt manner ~~ and the uncouthness 
104:033,06[A  ]| of a voice, which$6#1$ I heard to$9$ be wholly unmodulated 
104:033,07[A  ]| as I stood here." 
104:033,08[M  ]| "Certainly, he is not like$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. He has not 
104:033,09[M  ]| such a fine air and way of walking as $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
104:033,10[M  ]| I see the difference plain enough. But $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley is 
104:033,11[M  ]| so$5#1$ very fine a man!" 
104:033,12[A  ]| "$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's air is so$5#1$ remarkably good, that$3$ it is 
104:033,13[A  ]| not fair to$9$ compare $EM#R$Mr%*Martin with \him\. You might 
104:033,14[A  ]| not see one in$4$ a hundred, with \gentleman\ so$5#1$ plainly written 
104:033,15[A  ]| as in$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. But he is not the only gentleman 
104:033,16[A  ]| you have been lately used to$4$. What say you to$4$ 
104:033,17[A  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton? Compare $EM#R$Mr%*Martin with 
104:033,18[A  ]| either of \them\. Compare their manner of carrying themselves; 
104:033,19[A  ]| of walking; of speaking; of being$1$ silent. You 
104:033,20[A  ]| must see the difference." 
104:033,21[M  ]| "Oh, yes! ~~ there is a great difference. But $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
104:033,22[M  ]| is almost an old man. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston must be between forty 
104:033,23[M  ]| and fifty." 
104:033,24[A  ]| "Which$6#1$ makes his good manners the more valuable. 
104:033,25[A  ]| The older a person grows, $EM#M$Harriet, the more important it 
104:033,26[A  ]| is that$3$ their manners should not be bad ~~ the more glaring 
104:033,27[A  ]| and disgusting any loudness, or coarseness, or awkwardness 
104:033,28[A  ]| becomes. What is passable in$4$ youth, is detestable 
104:033,29[A  ]| in$4$ later age. $EM#R$Mr%*Martin is now awkward and abrupt; 
104:033,30[A  ]| what will$1$ he be at $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's time of life?" 
104:033,31[M  ]| "There is no$2$ saying, indeed!" 
104:033,31['  ]| replied $EM#M$Harriet, rather 
104:033,32['  ]| solemnly. 
104:033,33[A  ]| "But there may$1$ be pretty$5$ good guessing. He will$1$ be 
104:033,34[A  ]| a completely gross, vulgar farmer ~~ totally inattentive to$4$ 
104:033,35[A  ]| appearances, and thinking of nothing but profit and loss." 
104:033,36[M  ]| "Will$1$ he, indeed, that$6#2$ will$1$ be very bad." 
104:033,37[A  ]| "How much his business engrosses him already, is very 
104:033,38[A  ]| plain from the circumstance of his forgetting to$9$ inquire 
104:034,01[A  ]| for$4$ the book you recommended. He was a great deal$0$ too$5#1$ 
104:034,02[A  ]| full of the market to$9$ think of any*thing else ~~ which$6#1$ is 
104:034,03[A  ]| just$5$ as it should be, for$4$ a thriving man. What has he to$9$ 
104:034,04[A  ]| do with books? And I have no$2$ doubt$0$ that$3$ he \will$1$\ thrive 
104:034,05[A  ]| and be a very rich man in$4$ time ~~ and his being$1$ illiterate 
104:034,06[A  ]| and coarse need$1$ not disturb \us\." 
104:034,07[M  ]| "I wonder$1$ he did not remember the book" ~~ 
104:034,07['  ]| was all 
104:034,08['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet's answer$0$, and spoken with a degree of grave$2$ 
104:034,09['  ]| displeasure which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ might be safely left to$4$ 
104:034,10['  ]| itself. She, therefore, said no$2$ more for$4$ some time. Her 
104:034,11['  ]| next beginning was, 
104:034,12[A  ]| "In$4$ one respect$0$, perhaps, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's manners are 
104:034,13[A  ]| superior to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's or $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's. They have 
104:034,14[A  ]| more gentleness. They might be more safely held up$5$ as 
104:034,15[A  ]| a pattern. There is an openness, a quickness, almost 
104:034,16[A  ]| a bluntness in$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, which$6#1$ every*body likes in$4$ \him\ 
104:034,17[A  ]| because there is so$5#1$ much good*humour with it ~~ but that$6#2$ 
104:034,18[A  ]| would not do to$9$ be copied. Neither would $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
104:034,19[A  ]| downright, decided, commanding sort of manner ~~ though 
104:034,20[A  ]| it suits \him\ very well$5$; his figure and look$0$, and situation 
104:034,21[A  ]| in$4$ life seem to$9$ allow it; but if any young man were to$9$ 
104:034,22[A  ]| set$1$ about$5$ copying him, he would not be sufferable. On$4$ the 
104:034,23[A  ]| contrary, I think a young man might be very safely 
104:034,24[A  ]| recommended to$9$ take $EM#H$Mr%*Elton as a model. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
104:034,25[A  ]| is good*humoured, cheerful, obliging, and gentle. He 
104:034,26[A  ]| seems to$4$ me, to$9$ be grown particularly gentle of late. I do 
104:034,27[A  ]| not know whether he has any design$0$ of ingratiating himself 
104:034,28[A  ]| with either of us, $EM#M$Harriet, by$4$ additional softness, but 
104:034,29[A  ]| it strikes me that$3$ his manners are softer than they used 
104:034,30[A  ]| to$9$ be. If he means$1$ anything, it must be to$9$ please you. 
104:034,31[A  ]| Did not I tell you what he said of you the other day?" 
104:034,32['  ]| She then repeated some warm$2$ personal praise$0$ which$6#1$ 
104:034,33['  ]| she had drawn from $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and now did full justice 
104:034,34['  ]| to$4$; and $EM#M$Harriet blushed and smiled, and said she had 
104:034,35['  ]| always thought$1$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton very agreeable. 
104:034,36['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was the very person fixed on$5$ by$4$ $EM#A$Emma for$4$ 
104:034,37['  ]| driving the young farmer out$5$ of $EM#M$Harriet's head$0$. 
104:034,37['  ]| She 
104:034,38['  ]| thought$1$ 
104:034,38@a   | it would be an excellent match$0$; and only too$5#1$ 
104:035,01@a   | palpably desirable, natural$2$, and probable, for$4$ her to$9$ have 
104:035,02@a   | much merit$0$ in$4$ planning it. She feared it was what every*body 
104:035,03@a   | else must think of and predict. It was not likely, 
104:035,04@a   | however, that$3$ any*body should have equalled her in$4$ the 
104:035,05@a   | date of the plan, as it had entered her brain during the 
104:035,06@a   | very first evening of $EM#M$Harriet's coming to$4$ Hartfield. The 
104:035,07@a   | longer she considered it, the greater was her sense of its 
104:035,08@a   | expediency. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's situation was most suitable, 
104:035,09@a   | quite the gentleman himself, and without low connections; 
104:035,10@a   | at the same time not of any family that$6#1$ could 
104:035,11@a   | fairly object$1$ to$4$ the doubtful birth$0#1$ of $EM#M$Harriet. He had 
104:035,12@a   | a comfortable home for$4$ her, and 
104:035,12['  ]| $EM#A$Emma imagined 
104:035,12@a   | a very 
104:035,13@a   | sufficient income; for$3$ though the vicarage of Highbury 
104:035,14@a   | was not large, he was known to$9$ have some independent 
104:035,15@a   | property; 
104:035,15['  ]| and she thought$1$ very highly of him as 
104:035,15@a   | a good-humoured, 
104:035,16@a   | well-meaning, respectable young man, without 
104:035,17@a   | any deficiency of useful understanding or knowledge of 
104:035,18@a   | the world.

104:035,22@a   | on$4$ his side$0$; and on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's, there could be little doubt$0$ 
104:035,23@a   | that$3$ the idea of being$1$ preferred by$4$ him would have all 
104:035,24@a   | the usual weight and efficacy. And he was really a very 
104:035,25@a   | pleasing young man, a young man whom$6#1$ any woman 
104:035,26@a   | not fastidious might like$1$. He was reckoned very handsome; 
104:035,27@a   | his person much admired in$4$ general$0$, though not

105:036,02[B  ]| "of this great intimacy between 
105:036,03[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma and $EM#M$Harriet*Smith, but I think it a bad thing." 
105:036,04[O  ]| "A bad thing! Do you really think it a bad thing? ~~ 
105:036,05[O  ]| why so$5#2$?" 
105:036,06[B  ]| "I think they will$1$ neither of them do the other any 
105:036,07[B  ]| good." 
105:036,08[O  ]| "You surprize$1$ me! $EM#A$Emma must do $EM#M$Harriet good: 
105:036,09[O  ]| and by$4$ supplying her with a new object$0$ of interest$0$, $EM#M$Harriet 
105:036,10[O  ]| may$1$ be said to$9$ do $EM#A$Emma good. I have been seeing their 
105:036,11[O  ]| intimacy with the greatest pleasure. How very differently 
105:036,12[O  ]| we feel! ~~ Not think they will$1$ do each other any good! 
105:036,13[O  ]| This will$1$ certainly be the beginning of one of our quarrels 
105:036,14[O  ]| about$4$ $EM#A$Emma, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley." 
105:036,15[B  ]| "Perhaps you think I am come on$4$ purpose to$9$ quarrel$1$ 
105:036,16[B  ]| with you, knowing $EM#N$Weston to$9$ be out$5$, and that$3$ you must 
105:036,17[B  ]| still$5$ fight your own$2$ battle." 
105:036,18[O  ]| "$EM#N$Mr%*Weston would undoubtedly support$1$ me, if he were 
105:036,19[O  ]| here, for$3$ he thinks exactly as I do on$4$ the subject$0$. We 
105:036,20[O  ]| were speaking of it only yesterday, and agreeing how 
105:036,21[O  ]| fortunate it was for$4$ $EM#A$Emma, that$3$ there should be such 
105:036,22[O  ]| a girl in$4$ Highbury for$4$ her to$9$ associate$1$ with. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
105:036,23[O  ]| I shall not allow you to$9$ be a fair judge$0$ in$4$ this case. 
105:036,24[O  ]| You are so$5#1$ much used to$9$ live alone, that$3$ you do not know 
105:036,25[O  ]| the value$0$ of a companion; and perhaps no$2$ man can be 
105:036,26[O  ]| a good judge$0$ of the comfort$0$ a woman feels in$4$ the society 
105:036,27[O  ]| of one of her own$2$ sex, after$4$ being$1$ used to$4$ it all her life. 
105:036,28[O  ]| I can imagine your objection to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith. She is 
105:036,29[O  ]| not the superior young woman which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma's friend 
105:036,30[O  ]| ought to$9$ be. But on$4$ the other hand$0$ as $EM#A$Emma wants$1$ to$9$ 
105:036,31[O  ]| see her better informed, it will$1$ be an inducement to$4$ her 
105:036,32[O  ]| to$9$ read more herself. They will$1$ read together. She 
105:036,33[O  ]| means$1$ it, I know." 
105:037,01[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma has been meaning to$9$ read more ever since she 
105:037,02[B  ]| was twelve years old. I have seen a great many lists of 
105:037,03[B  ]| her drawing up$5$ at various times of books that$6#1$ she meant 
105:037,04[B  ]| to$9$ read regularly through$5$ ~~ and very good lists they were ~~ 
105:037,05[B  ]| very well$5$ chosen, and very neatly arranged ~~ sometimes 
105:037,06[B  ]| alphabetically, and sometimes by$4$ some other rule. The 
105:037,07[B  ]| list she drew up$5$ when only fourteen ~~ I remember thinking 
105:037,08[B  ]| it did her judgment so$5#1$ much credit$0$, that$3$ I preserved it 
105:037,09[B  ]| some time; and I dare$1#2$ say she may$1$ have made out$5$ a very 
105:037,10[B  ]| good list now. But I have done with expecting any 
105:037,11[B  ]| course$0$ of steady reading from $EM#A$Emma. She will$1$ never 
105:037,12[B  ]| submit to$4$ any*thing requiring industry and patience, and 
105:037,13[B  ]| a subjection of the fancy$0$ to$4$ the understanding. Where 
105:037,14[B  ]| $EM#O$Miss*Taylor failed to$9$ stimulate, I may$1$ safely affirm that$3$ 
105:037,15[B  ]| $EM#M$Harriet*Smith will$1$ do nothing. ~~ You never could persuade 
105:037,16[B  ]| her to$9$ read half so$5#1$ much as you wished. ~~ You know you 
105:037,17[B  ]| could not." 
105:037,18[O  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say," 
105:037,18['  ]| replied $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, smiling, 
105:037,18[O  ]| "that$3$ 
105:037,19[O  ]| I thought$1$ so$5#2$ \then\; ~~ but since we have parted, I can 
105:037,20[O  ]| never remember $EM#A$Emma's omitting to$9$ do any*thing I 
105:037,21[O  ]| wished." 
105:037,22[B  ]| "There is hardly any desiring to$9$ refresh such a memory 
105:037,23[B  ]| as \that$6#2$\" ~~ 
105:037,23['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, feelingly; and for$4$ a moment 
105:037,24['  ]| or two he had done. 
105:037,24[B  ]| "But I", 
105:037,24['  ]| he soon added, 
105:037,24[B  ]| "who$6#1$ have 
105:037,25[B  ]| had no$2$ such charm$0$ thrown over my senses, must still$5$ see, 
105:037,26[B  ]| hear, and remember. $EM#A$Emma is spoiled by$4$ being$1$ the 
105:037,27[B  ]| cleverest of her family. At ten years old, she had the 
105:037,28[B  ]| misfortune of being$1$ able to$9$ answer$1$ questions which$6#1$ 
105:037,29[B  ]| puzzled her sister at seventeen. She was always quick$2$ 
105:037,30[B  ]| and assured: $EM#L$Isabella slow and diffident. And ever since 
105:037,31[B  ]| she was twelve, $EM#A$Emma has been mistress of the house 
105:037,32[B  ]| and of you all. In$4$ her mother she lost the only person 
105:037,33[B  ]| able to$9$ cope with her. She inherits her mother's talents, 
105:037,34[B  ]| and must have been under subjection to$4$ her." 
105:037,35[O  ]| "I should have been sorry, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, to$9$ be 
105:037,36[O  ]| dependent on$4$ \your\ recommendation, had I quitted 
105:037,37[O  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's family and wanted another situation; 
105:037,38[O  ]| I do not think you would have spoken a good word for$4$ 
105:038,01[O  ]| me to$4$ any*body. I am sure you always thought$1$ me unfit 
105:038,02[O  ]| for$4$ the office I held." 
105:038,03[B  ]| "Yes," 
105:038,03['  ]| said he, smiling. 
105:038,03[B  ]| "You are better placed \here\; 
105:038,04[B  ]| very fit$2$ for$4$ a wife, but not at all for$4$ a governess. But 
105:038,05[B  ]| you were preparing yourself to$9$ be an excellent wife all 
105:038,06[B  ]| the time you were at Hartfield. You might not give 
105:038,07[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma such a complete$2$ education as your powers would 
105:038,08[B  ]| seem to$9$ promise$1$; but you were receiving a very good 
105:038,09[B  ]| education from \her\, on$4$ the very material$2$ matrimonial point$0$ 
105:038,10[B  ]| of submitting your own$2$ will$0$, and doing as you were bid; 
105:038,11[B  ]| and if $EM#N$Weston had asked me to$9$ recommend him a wife, 
105:038,12[B  ]| I should certainly have named $EM#O$Miss*Taylor." 
105:038,13[O  ]| "Thank you. There will$1$ be very little merit$0$ in$4$ making 
105:038,14[O  ]| a good wife to$4$ such a man as $EM#N$Mr%*Weston." 
105:038,15[B  ]| "Why, to$9$ own$1$ the truth, I am afraid you are rather 
105:038,16[B  ]| thrown away, and that$3$ with every disposition to$9$ bear$1$, 
105:038,17[B  ]| there will$1$ be nothing to$9$ be borne. We will$1$ not despair$1$, 
105:038,18[B  ]| however. $EM#N$Weston may$1$ grow cross$2$ from the wantonness 
105:038,19[B  ]| of comfort$0$, or his son may$1$ plague him." 
105:038,20[O  ]| "I hope$1$ not \that$6#2$\. ~~ It is not likely. No$7$, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
105:038,21[O  ]| do not foretel vexation from that$6#2$ quarter$0#2$." 
105:038,22[B  ]| "Not I, indeed. I only name$1$ possibilities. I do not 
105:038,23[B  ]| pretend to$4$ $EM#A$Emma's genius for$4$ foretelling and guessing. 
105:038,24[B  ]| I hope$1$, with all my heart, the young man may$1$ be a $EM#N1$Weston 
105:038,25[B  ]| in$4$ merit$0$, and a $EM#W$Churchill in$4$ fortune. ~~ But $EM#M$Harriet*Smith ~~ 
105:038,26[B  ]| I have not half done about$4$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith. I think her 
105:038,27[B  ]| the very worst sort of companion that$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma could 
105:038,28[B  ]| possibly have. She knows nothing herself, and looks$1$ upon$4$ 
105:038,29[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma as knowing every*thing. She is a flatterer in$4$ all 
105:038,30[B  ]| her ways; and so$5#1$ much the worse, because undesigned. 
105:038,31[B  ]| Her ignorance is hourly flattery. How can $EM#A$Emma 
105:038,32[B  ]| imagine she has any*thing to$9$ learn herself, while$3$ $EM#M$Harriet 
105:038,33[B  ]| is presenting such a delightful inferiority? And as for$4$ 
105:038,34[B  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, I will$1$ venture to$9$ say that$3$ \she\ cannot gain$1$ by$4$ the 
105:038,35[B  ]| acquaintance. Hartfield will$1$ only put her out$5$ of conceit 
105:038,36[B  ]| with all the other places$0$ she belongs to$4$. She will$1$ grow 
105:038,37[B  ]| just$5$ refined enough to$9$ be uncomfortable with those among 
105:038,38[B  ]| whom$6#1$ birth$0#1$ and circumstances have placed her home. 
105:039,01[B  ]| I am much mistaken if $EM#A$Emma's doctrines give any 
105:039,02[B  ]| strength of mind$0$, or tend at all to$9$ make$1$ a girl adapt 
105:039,03[B  ]| herself rationally to$4$ the varieties of her situation in$4$ life. ~~ 
105:039,04[B  ]| They only give a little polish." 
105:039,05[O  ]| "I either depend more upon$4$ $EM#A$Emma's good sense than 
105:039,06[O  ]| you do, or am more anxious for$4$ her present$2$ comfort$0$; for$3$ 
105:039,07[O  ]| I cannot lament the acquaintance. How well$5$ she looked 
105:039,08[O  ]| last$2$ night!" 
105:039,09[B  ]| "Oh! you would rather talk$1$ of her person than her 
105:039,10[B  ]| mind$0$, would you? Very well$5$; I shall not attempt$1$ to$9$ 
105:039,11[B  ]| deny $EM#A$Emma's being$1$ pretty$2$." 
105:039,12[O  ]| "Pretty$2$! say beautiful rather. Can you imagine any*thing 
105:039,13[O  ]| nearer perfect$2$ beauty than $EM#A$Emma altogether ~~ face$0$ 
105:039,14[O  ]| and figure?" 
105:039,15[B  ]| "I do not know what I could imagine, but I confess 
105:039,16[B  ]| that$3$ I have seldom seen a face$0$ or figure more pleasing to$4$ 
105:039,17[B  ]| me than her's. But I am a partial old friend." 
105:039,18[O  ]| "Such an eye! ~~ the true hazle eye ~~ and so$5#1$ brilliant! 
105:039,19[O  ]| regular features, open$2$ countenance, with a complexion! 
105:039,20[O  ]| oh! what a bloom of full health, and such a pretty$2$ height 
105:039,21[O  ]| and size; such a firm and upright figure. There is health, 
105:039,22[O  ]| not merely in$4$ her bloom, but in$4$ her air, her head$0$, her 
105:039,23[O  ]| glance$0$. One hears sometimes of a child being$1$ ""the picture$0$ 
105:039,24[O  ]| of health;"" now $EM#A$Emma always gives me the idea of being$1$ 
105:039,25[O  ]| the complete$2$ picture$0$ of grown-up health. She is loveliness 
105:039,26[O  ]| itself. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, is not she?" 
105:039,27[B  ]| "I have not a fault to$9$ find with her person," 
105:039,27['  ]| he replied. 
105:039,28[B  ]| "I think her all you describe. I love$1$ to$9$ look$1$ at her; and 
105:039,29[B  ]| I will$1$ add this praise$0$, that$3$ I do not think her personally 
105:039,30[B  ]| vain. Considering how very handsome she is, she appears 
105:039,31[B  ]| to$9$ be little occupied with it; her vanity lies$1$ another way. 
105:039,32[B  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, I am not to$9$ be talked out$5$ of my dislike$0$ of 
105:039,33[B  ]| her intimacy with $EM#M$Harriet*Smith, or my dread$0$ of its 
105:039,34[B  ]| doing them both harm$0$." 
105:039,35[O  ]| "And I, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, am equally stout in$4$ my 
105:039,36[O  ]| confidence of its not doing them any harm$0$. With all dear$2#1$ 
105:039,37[O  ]| $EM#A$Emma's little faults, she is an excellent creature. Where 
105:039,38[O  ]| shall we see a better daughter, or a kinder sister, or a truer 
105:040,01[O  ]| friend? No$7$, no$7$; she has qualities which$6#1$ may$1$ be trusted; 
105:040,02[O  ]| she will$1$ never lead$1$ any*one really wrong; she will$1$ make$1$ 
105:040,03[O  ]| no$2$ lasting blunder$0$; where $EM#A$Emma errs once, she is in$4$ the 
105:040,04[O  ]| right$0$ a hundred times." 
105:040,05[B  ]| "Very well$5$; I will$1$ not plague you any more. $EM#A$Emma 
105:040,06[B  ]| shall be an angel, and I will$1$ keep my spleen to$4$ myself till 
105:040,07[B  ]| Christmas brings $EM#K$John and $EM#L$Isabella. $EM#K$John loves $EM#A$Emma 
105:040,08[B  ]| with a reasonable and therefore not a blind$2$ affection, and 
105:040,09[B  ]| $EM#L$Isabella always thinks as he does; except when he is not 
105:040,10[B  ]| quite frightened enough about$4$ the children. I am sure 
105:040,11[B  ]| of having their opinions with me." 
105:040,12[O  ]| "I know that$3$ you all love$1$ her really too$5#1$ well$5$ to$9$ be 
105:040,13[O  ]| unjust or unkind; but excuse$1$ me, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, if 
105:040,14[O  ]| I take the liberty (I consider myself, you know, as having 
105:040,15[O  ]| somewhat of the privilege of speech that$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma's mother 
105:040,16[O  ]| might have had) the liberty of hinting that$3$ I do not think 
105:040,17[O  ]| any possible good can arise from $EM#M$Harriet*Smith's intimacy 
105:040,18[O  ]| being$1$ made a matter of much discussion among you. 
105:040,19[O  ]| Pray excuse$1$ me; but supposing any little inconvenience 
105:040,20[O  ]| may$1$ be apprehended from the intimacy, it cannot be 
105:040,21[O  ]| expected that$3$ $EM#A$Emma, accountable to$4$ nobody but her 
105:040,22[O  ]| father, who$6#1$ perfectly approves the acquaintance, should 
105:040,23[O  ]| put an end$0$ to$4$ it, so$5#1$ long as it is a source of pleasure to$4$ 
105:040,24[O  ]| herself. It has been so$5#1$ many years my province to$9$ give 
105:040,25[O  ]| advice, that$3$ you cannot be surprized, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, at 
105:040,26[O  ]| this little remains$0$ of office." 
105:040,27[B  ]| "Not at all," 
105:040,27['  ]| cried he; 
105:040,27[B  ]| "I am much obliged to$4$ you for$4$ 
105:040,28[B  ]| it. It is very good advice, and it shall have a better fate 
105:040,29[B  ]| than your advice has often found; for$3$ it shall be attended 
105:040,30[B  ]| to$5$." 
105:040,31[O  ]| "$EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley is easily alarmed, and might be 
105:040,32[O  ]| made unhappy about$4$ her sister." 
105:040,33[B  ]| "Be satisfied," 
105:040,33['  ]| said he, 
105:040,33[B  ]| "I will$1$ not raise any outcry. 
105:040,34[B  ]| I will$1$ keep my ill-humour to$4$ myself. I have a very 
105:040,35[B  ]| sincere interest$0$ in$4$ $EM#A$Emma. $EM#L$Isabella does not seem more 
105:040,36[B  ]| my sister; has never excited a greater interest$0$; perhaps 
105:040,37[B  ]| hardly so$5#1$ great. There is an anxiety, a curiosity in$4$ what 
105:040,38[B  ]| one feels for$4$ $EM#A$Emma. I wonder$1$ what will$1$ become of her!" 
105:041,01[O  ]| "So$5#2$ do I," 
105:041,01['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston gently; 
105:041,01[O  ]| "very much." 
105:041,02[B  ]| "She always declares she will$1$ never marry, which$6#1$, of 
105:041,03[B  ]| course$8$, means$1$ just$5$ nothing at all. But I have no$2$ idea 
105:041,04[B  ]| that$3$ she has yet ever seen a man she cared for$4$. It would 
105:041,05[B  ]| not be a bad thing for$4$ her to$9$ be very much in$4$ love$0$ with 
105:041,06[B  ]| a proper object$0$. I should like$1$ to$9$ see $EM#A$Emma in$4$ love$0$, and 
105:041,07[B  ]| in$4$ some doubt$0$ of a return$0$; it would do her good. But 
105:041,08[B  ]| there is nobody hereabouts to$9$ attach her; and she goes 
105:041,09[B  ]| so$5#1$ seldom from home." 
105:041,10[O  ]| "There does, indeed, seem as little to$9$ tempt her to$9$ 
105:041,11[O  ]| break her resolution, at present$0#1$," 
105:041,11['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
105:041,11[O  ]| "as 
105:041,12[O  ]| can well$5$ be; and while$3$ she is so$5#1$ happy at Hartfield, 
105:041,13[O  ]| I cannot wish$1$ her to$9$ be forming any attachment which$6#1$ 
105:041,14[O  ]| would be creating such difficulties, on$4$ poor $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
105:041,15[O  ]| account$0$. I do not recommend matrimony at 
105:041,16[O  ]| present$0#1$ to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, though I mean$1$ no$2$ slight$0$ to$4$ the state$0$ 
105:041,17[O  ]| I assure you." 
105:041,18['  ]| Part$0$ of her meaning was to$9$ conceal some favourite$2$ 
105:041,19['  ]| thoughts of her own$2$ and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's on$4$ the subject$0$, as 
105:041,20['  ]| much as possible. There were wishes$0$ at Randalls respecting 
105:041,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's destiny, but it was not desirable to$9$ have 
105:041,22['  ]| them suspected; and the quiet$2$ transition which$6#1$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
105:041,23['  ]| soon afterwards made to$4$ 
105:041,23[B  ]| "What does $EM#N$Weston 
105:041,24[B  ]| think of the weather; shall we have rain$0$?" 
105:041,24['  ]| convinced 
105:041,25['  ]| her that$3$ he had nothing more to$9$ say or surmise$1$ about$4$ 
105:041,26['  ]| Hartfield. 
106:042,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not feel a doubt$0$ of having given $EM#M$Harriet's 
106:042,02['  ]| fancy$0$ a proper direction and raised the gratitude of her 
106:042,03['  ]| young vanity to$4$ a very good purpose, for$3$ she found her 
106:042,04['  ]| decidedly more sensible$2#1$ than before$5$ of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's being$1$ 
106:042,05['  ]| a remarkably handsome man, with most agreeable 
106:042,06['  ]| manners; and as she had no$2$ hesitation in$4$ following up$5$ 
106:042,07['  ]| the assurance of his admiration, by$4$ agreeable hints, she 
106:042,08['  ]| was soon pretty$5$ confident of creating as much liking on$4$ 
106:042,09['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet's side$0$, as there could be any occasion$0$ for$4$. She 
106:042,10['  ]| was quite convinced of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's being$1$ in$4$ the fairest 
106:042,11['  ]| way of falling in$4$ love$0$, if not in$4$ love$0$ already. She had 
106:042,12['  ]| no$2$ scruple$0$ with regard$0$ to$4$ him. He talked of $EM#M$Harriet, and 
106:042,13['  ]| praised her so$5#1$ warmly, that$3$ she could not suppose any*thing 
106:042,14['  ]| wanting which$6#1$ a little time would not add. His 
106:042,15['  ]| perception of the striking improvement of $EM#M$Harriet's 
106:042,16['  ]| manner, since her introduction at Hartfield, was not one 
106:042,17['  ]| of the least agreeable proofs of his growing attachment. 
106:042,18[H  ]| "You have given $EM#M$Miss*Smith all that$6#1$ she required," 
106:042,19['  ]| said he; 
106:042,19[H  ]| "you have made her graceful and easy. She 
106:042,20[H  ]| was a beautiful creature when she came to$4$ you, but, in$4$ my 
106:042,21[H  ]| opinion, the attractions you have added are infinitely 
106:042,22[H  ]| superior to$4$ what she received from nature." 
106:042,23[A  ]| "I am glad you think I have been useful to$4$ her; but 
106:042,24[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet only wanted drawing out$5$, and receiving a few, 
106:042,25[A  ]| very few hints. She had all the natural$2$ grace$0$ of sweetness 
106:042,26[A  ]| of temper and artlessness in$4$ herself. I have done very 
106:042,27[A  ]| little." 
106:042,28[H  ]| "If it were admissible to$9$ contradict a lady," 
106:042,28['  ]| said the 
106:042,29['  ]| gallant $EM#H$Mr%*Elton ~~ 
106:042,30[A  ]| "I have perhaps given her a little more decision of 
106:042,31[A  ]| character, have taught her to$9$ think on$4$ points which$6#1$ had 
106:042,32[A  ]| not fallen in$4$ her way before$5$." 
106:042,33[H  ]| "Exactly so$5#2$; that$6#2$ is what principally strikes me. So$5#1$ 
106:043,01[H  ]| much superadded decision of character! Skilful has been 
106:043,02[H  ]| the hand$0$." 
106:043,03[A  ]| "Great has been the pleasure, I am sure. I never met 
106:043,04[A  ]| with a disposition more truly amiable." 
106:043,05[H  ]| "I have no$2$ doubt$0$ of it." 
106:043,05['  ]| And it was spoken with 
106:043,06['  ]| a sort of sighing animation, which$6#1$ had a vast deal$0$ of the 
106:043,07['  ]| lover. She was not less pleased another day with the 
106:043,08['  ]| manner in$4$ which$6#1$ he seconded a sudden$2$ wish$0$ of her's, to$9$ 
106:043,09['  ]| have $EM#M$Harriet's picture$0$. 
106:043,10[A  ]| "Did you ever have your likeness taken, $EM#M$Harriet?" 
106:043,11['  ]| said she: 
106:043,11[A  ]| "Did you ever sit for$4$ your picture$0$?" 
106:043,12['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was on$4$ the point$0$ of leaving the room, and only 
106:043,13['  ]| stopt to$9$ say, with a very interesting nai^vete=, 
106:043,14[M  ]| "Oh! dear$7$, no$7$, never." 
106:043,15['  ]| No$2$ sooner was she out$5$ of sight, than $EM#A$Emma exclaimed, 
106:043,16[A  ]| "What an exquisite possession a good picture$0$ of her 
106:043,17[A  ]| would be! I would give any money for$4$ it. I almost long 
106:043,18[A  ]| to$9$ attempt$1$ her likeness myself. You do not know it 
106:043,19[A  ]| I dare$1#2$ say, but two or three years ago I had a great 
106:043,20[A  ]| passion for$4$ taking likenesses, and attempted several of my 
106:043,21[A  ]| friends, and was thought$1$ to$9$ have a tolerable eye in$4$ 
106:043,22[A  ]| general$0$. But from one cause or another, I gave it up$5$ in$4$ 
106:043,23[A  ]| disgust$0$. But really, I could almost venture, if $EM#M$Harriet 
106:043,24[A  ]| would sit to$4$ me. It would be such a delight$0$ to$9$ have her 
106:043,25[A  ]| picture$0$!" 
106:043,26[H  ]| "Let me entreat you," 
106:043,26['  ]| cried $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; 
106:043,26[H  ]| "it would 
106:043,27[H  ]| indeed be a delight$0$! Let me entreat you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
106:043,28[H  ]| to$9$ exercise$1$ so$5#1$ charming a talent in$4$ favour$0$ of your 
106:043,29[H  ]| friend. I know what your drawings are. How could you 
106:043,30[H  ]| suppose me ignorant? Is not this room rich in$4$ specimens 
106:043,31[H  ]| of your landscapes and flowers; and has not $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
106:043,32[H  ]| some inimitable figure-pieces in$4$ her drawing-room, at 
106:043,33[H  ]| Randalls?" 
106:043,34@a   | Yes, good man! ~~ 
106:043,34['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma ~~ 
106:043,34@a   | but what has all 
106:043,35@a   | that$6#2$ to$9$ do with taking likenesses? You know nothing 
106:043,36@a   | of drawing. Don't pretend to$9$ be in$4$ raptures about$4$ mine$6$. 
106:043,37@a   | Keep your raptures for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's face$0$. 
106:043,37[A  ]| "Well$7$, if you give 
106:043,38[A  ]| me such kind$2$ encouragement, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, I believe I shall 
106:044,01[A  ]| try what I can do. $EM#M$Harriet's features are very delicate, 
106:044,02[A  ]| which$6#1$ makes a likeness difficult; and yet there is a peculiarity 
106:044,03[A  ]| in$4$ the shape$0$ of the eye and the lines about$4$ the 
106:044,04[A  ]| mouth which$6#1$ one ought to$9$ catch$1$." 
106:044,05[H  ]| "Exactly so$5#2$ ~~ The shape$0$ of the eye and the lines about$4$ 
106:044,06[H  ]| the mouth ~~ I have not a doubt$0$ of your success. Pray, 
106:044,07[H  ]| pray attempt$1$ it. As you will$1$ do it, it will$1$ indeed, to$9$ use$1$ 
106:044,08[H  ]| your own$2$ words, be an exquisite possession." 
106:044,09[A  ]| "But I am afraid, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, $EM#M$Harriet will$1$ not like$1$ to$9$ 
106:044,10[A  ]| sit. She thinks so$5#1$ little of her own$2$ beauty. Did not you 
106:044,11[A  ]| observe her manner of answering me? How completely 
106:044,12[A  ]| it meant, ""why should my picture$0$ be drawn?"" 
106:044,13[H  ]| "Oh! yes, I observed it, I assure you. It was not 
106:044,14[H  ]| lost on$4$ me. But still$5$ I cannot imagine she would not be 
106:044,15[H  ]| persuaded." 
106:044,16['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was soon back$5$ again, and the proposal almost 
106:044,17['  ]| immediately made; and she had no$2$ scruples which$6#1$ could 
106:044,18['  ]| stand$1$ many minutes against the earnest pressing of both 
106:044,19['  ]| the others. $EM#A$Emma wished to$9$ go to$9$ work$0$ directly, and 
106:044,20['  ]| therefore produced the portfolio containing her various 
106:044,21['  ]| attempts at portraits, for$3$ not one of them had ever been 
106:044,22['  ]| finished, that$3$ they might decide together on$4$ the best size 
106:044,23['  ]| for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet. Her many beginnings were displayed. 
106:044,24['  ]| Miniatures, half-lengths, whole-lengths, pencil, crayon, 
106:044,25['  ]| and water-colours had been all tried in$4$ turn$0$. She had 
106:044,26['  ]| always wanted to$9$ do everything, and had made more 
106:044,27['  ]| progress both in$4$ drawing and music than many might 
106:044,28['  ]| have done with so$5#1$ little labour as she would ever submit 
106:044,29['  ]| to$4$. She played and sang; ~~ and drew in$4$ almost every 
106:044,30['  ]| style; but steadiness had always been wanting; and in$4$ 
106:044,31['  ]| nothing had she approached the degree of excellence 
106:044,32['  ]| which$6#1$ she would have been glad to$9$ command$1$, and ought 
106:044,33['  ]| not to$9$ have failed of. She was not much deceived as to$4$ 
106:044,34['  ]| her own$2$ skill either as an artist or a musician, but she was 
106:044,35['  ]| not unwilling to$9$ have others deceived, or sorry to$9$ know 
106:044,36['  ]| her reputation for$4$ accomplishment often higher than it 
106:044,37['  ]| deserved. 
106:044,38['  ]| There was merit$0$ in$4$ every drawing ~~ in$4$ the least finished, 
106:045,01['  ]| perhaps the most; her style was spirited; but had there 
106:045,02['  ]| been much less, or had there been ten times more, the 
106:045,03['  ]| delight$0$ and admiration of her two companions would have 
106:045,04['  ]| been the same. They were both in$4$ extasies. A likeness 
106:045,05['  ]| pleases every*body; and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's performances 
106:045,06['  ]| must be capital. 
106:045,07[A  ]| "No$2$ great variety of faces for$4$ you," 
106:045,07['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
106:045,07[A  ]| "I 
106:045,08[A  ]| had only my own$2$ family to$9$ study$1$ from. There is my 
106:045,09[A  ]| father ~~ another of my father ~~ but the idea of sitting for$4$ 
106:045,10[A  ]| his picture$0$ made him so$5#1$ nervous, that$3$ I could only take 
106:045,11[A  ]| him by$4$ stealth; neither of them very like$4$ therefore. 
106:045,12[A  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston again, and again, and again, you see. Dear$2#1$ 
106:045,13[A  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston! always my kindest friend on$4$ every occasion$0$. 
106:045,14[A  ]| She would sit whenever I asked her. There is my sister; 
106:045,15[A  ]| and really quite her own$2$ little elegant figure! ~~ and the 
106:045,16[A  ]| face$0$ not unlike. I should have made a good likeness of 
106:045,17[A  ]| her, if she would have sat longer, but she was in$4$ such 
106:045,18[A  ]| a hurry$0$ to$9$ have me draw her four children that$3$ she would 
106:045,19[A  ]| not be quiet$2$. Then, here come all my attempts at three 
106:045,20[A  ]| of those four children; ~~ there they are, $EM#L1$Henry and $EM#L2$John 
106:045,21[A  ]| and $EM#L3$Bella, from one end$0$ of the sheet to$4$ the other, and any 
106:045,22[A  ]| one of them might do for$4$ any*one of the rest$0#1$. She was so$5#1$ 
106:045,23[A  ]| eager to$9$ have them drawn that$3$ I could not refuse; but 
106:045,24[A  ]| there is no$2$ making children of three or four years old stand$1$ 
106:045,25[A  ]| still$2$ you know; nor can it be very easy to$9$ take any 
106:045,26[A  ]| likeness of them, beyond$4$ the air and complexion, unless 
106:045,27[A  ]| they are coarser featured than any mama's children ever 
106:045,28[A  ]| were. Here is my sketch of the fourth, who$6#1$ was a baby. 
106:045,29[A  ]| I took him, as he was sleeping on$4$ the sofa, and it is as 
106:045,30[A  ]| strong a likeness of his cockade as you would wish$1$ to$9$ see. 
106:045,31[A  ]| He had nestled down$5$ his head$0$ most conveniently. That's 
106:045,32[A  ]| very like$4$. I am rather proud of little $EM#L4$George. The corner 
106:045,33[A  ]| of the sofa is very good. Then here is my last$0$" ~~ 
106:045,33['  ]| unclosing 
106:045,34['  ]| a pretty$2$ sketch of a gentleman in$4$ small size, whole-length ~~ 
106:045,35[A  ]| "my last$0$ and my best ~~ my brother, $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley. 
106:045,36[A  ]| ~~ This did not want$1$ much of being$1$ finished, when I put 
106:045,37[A  ]| it away in$4$ a pet, and vowed I would never take another 
106:045,38[A  ]| likeness. I could not help$1$ being$1$ provoked; for$3$ after$4$ all 
106:046,01[A  ]| my pains, and when I had really made a very good 
106:046,02[A  ]| likeness of it ~~ ($EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and I were quite agreed in$4$ 
106:046,03[A  ]| thinking it \very\ like$4$) ~~ only too$5#1$ handsome ~~ too$5#1$ flattering 
106:046,04[A  ]| ~~ but that$6#2$ was a fault on$4$ the right$2#1$ side$0$ ~~ after$4$ all this, 
106:046,05[A  ]| came poor dear$2#1$ $EM#L$Isabella's cold$2$ approbation of ~~ 
106:046,05@l   | ""Yes, it 
106:046,06@l   | was a little like$4$ ~~ but to$9$ be sure it did not do him justice."" 
106:046,07[A  ]| We had had a great deal$0$ of trouble$0$ in$4$ persuading him to$9$ 
106:046,08[A  ]| sit at all. It was made a great favour$0$ of; and altogether 
106:046,09[A  ]| it was more than I could bear$1$; and so$3$ I never would 
106:046,10[A  ]| finish$1$ it, to$9$ have it apologized over as an unfavourable 
106:046,11[A  ]| likeness, to$4$ every morning visitor in$4$ Brunswick-square; ~~ 
106:046,12[A  ]| and, as I said, I did then forswear ever drawing anybody 
106:046,13[A  ]| again. But for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's sake, or rather for$4$ my own$2$, and 
106:046,14[A  ]| as there are no$2$ husbands and wives in$4$ the case at present$0#1$, 
106:046,15[A  ]| I will$1$ break my resolution now." 
106:046,16['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton seemed very properly struck and delighted 
106:046,17['  ]| by$4$ the idea, and was repeating, 
106:046,17[H  ]| "No$2$ husbands and wives 
106:046,18[H  ]| in$4$ the case \at present$0#1$\ indeed, as you observe. Exactly so$5#2$. 
106:046,19[H  ]| No$2$ husbands and wives," 
106:046,19['  ]| with so$5#1$ interesting a consciousness, 
106:046,20['  ]| that$3$ $EM#A$Emma began to$9$ consider 
106:046,20@a   | whether she had not 
106:046,21@a   | better leave$1$ them together at once. But as she wanted 
106:046,22@a   | to$9$ be drawing, the declaration must wait a little longer. 
106:046,23['  ]| She had soon fixed on$4$ the size and sort of portrait. It 
106:046,24['  ]| was to$9$ be a whole-length in$4$ water-colours, like$4$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley's, 
106:046,25['  ]| and was destined, if she could please herself, 
106:046,26['  ]| to$9$ hold$1$ a very honourable station over the mantlepiece. 
106:046,27['  ]| The sitting began; and $EM#M$Harriet, smiling and blushing, 
106:046,28['  ]| and afraid of not keeping her attitude and countenance, 
106:046,29['  ]| presented a very sweet mixture of youthful expression to$4$ 
106:046,30['  ]| the steady eyes of the artist. 
106:046,30@a   | But there was no$2$ doing 
106:046,31@a   | anything, with $EM#H$Mr%*Elton fidgetting behind her and 
106:046,32@a   | watching every touch$0$. She gave him credit$0$ for$4$ stationing 
106:046,33@a   | himself where he might gaze and gaze again without 
106:046,34@a   | offence; but was really obliged to$9$ put an end$0$ to$4$ it, and 
106:046,35@a   | request$1$ him to$9$ place$1$ himself elsewhere. It then occurred 
106:046,36@a   | to$4$ her to$9$ employ him in$4$ reading. 
106:046,37[A  ]| "If he would be so$5#1$ good as to$9$ read to$4$ them, it would 
106:046,38[A  ]| be a kindness indeed! It would amuse away the difficulties 
106:047,01[A  ]| of her part$0$, and lessen the irksomeness of $EM#M$Miss*Smith's." 
106:047,02[A  ]| 
106:047,03['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was only too$5#1$ happy. $EM#M$Harriet listened, and 
106:047,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma drew in$4$ peace. 
106:047,04@a   | She must allow him to$9$ be still$5$ 
106:047,05@a   | frequently coming to$9$ look$1$; anything less would certainly 
106:047,06@a   | have been too$5#1$ little in$4$ a lover; and he was ready at the 
106:047,07@a   | smallest intermission of the pencil, to$9$ jump up$5$ and see 
106:047,08@a   | the progress, and be charmed. ~~ There was no$2$ being$1$ 
106:047,09@a   | displeased with such an encourager, for$3$ his admiration 
106:047,10@a   | made him discern a likeness almost before$3$ it was possible. 
106:047,11@a   | She could not respect$1$ his eye, but his love$0$ and his complaisance 
106:047,12@a   | were unexceptionable. 
106:047,13['  ]| The sitting was altogether very satisfactory; she was 
106:047,14['  ]| quite enough pleased with the first day's sketch to$9$ wish$1$ 
106:047,15['  ]| to$9$ go on$5$. There was no$2$ want$0$ of likeness, she had been 
106:047,16['  ]| fortunate in$4$ the attitude, and as she meant to$9$ throw$1$ in$5$ 
106:047,17['  ]| a little improvement to$4$ the figure, to$9$ give a little more 
106:047,18['  ]| height, and considerably more elegance, she had great 
106:047,19['  ]| confidence of 
106:047,19@a   | its being$1$ in$4$ every way a pretty$2$ drawing at 
106:047,20@a   | last$0$, and of its filling its destined place$0$ with credit$0$ to$4$ them 
106:047,21@a   | both ~~ a standing memorial of the beauty of one, the skill 
106:047,22@a   | of the other, and the friendship of both; with as many 
106:047,23@a   | other agreeable associations as $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's very promising 
106:047,24@a   | attachment was likely to$9$ add. 
106:047,25['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was to$9$ sit again the next day; and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, 
106:047,26['  ]| just$5$ as he ought, entreated for$4$ the permission of attending 
106:047,27['  ]| and reading to$4$ them again. 
106:047,28[A  ]| "By$4$ all means$0$. We shall be most happy to$9$ consider 
106:047,29[A  ]| you as one of the party." 
106:047,30['  ]| The same civilities and courtesies, the same success and 
106:047,31['  ]| satisfaction, took place$0$ on$4$ the morrow, and accompanied 
106:047,32['  ]| the whole$2$ progress of the picture$0$, which$6#1$ was rapid and 
106:047,33['  ]| happy. Every*body who$6#1$ saw it was pleased, but $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
106:047,34['  ]| was in$4$ continual raptures, and defended it through$4$ every 
106:047,35['  ]| criticism. 
106:047,36[O  ]| "$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse has given her friend the only beauty 
106:047,37[O  ]| she wanted," ~~ 
106:047,37['  ]| observed $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$4$ him ~~ not in$4$ the 
106:047,38['  ]| least suspecting that$3$ she was addressing a lover. ~~ 
106:047,38[O  ]| "The 
106:048,01[O  ]| expression of the eye is most correct$2$, but $EM#M$Miss*Smith has 
106:048,02[O  ]| not those eye-brows and eye-lashes. It is the fault of her 
106:048,03[O  ]| face$0$ that$3$ she has them not." 
106:048,04[H  ]| "Do you think so$5#2$?" 
106:048,04['  ]| replied he. 
106:048,04[H  ]| "I cannot agree 
106:048,05[H  ]| with you. It appears to$4$ me a most perfect$2$ resemblance 
106:048,06[H  ]| in$4$ every feature. I never saw such a likeness in$4$ my life. 
106:048,07[H  ]| We must allow for$4$ the effect$0$ of shade, you know." 
106:048,08[B  ]| "You have made her too$5#1$ tall, $EM#A$Emma," 
106:048,08['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
106:048,09['  ]| 
106:048,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma knew that$3$ she had, but would not own$1$ it, and 
106:048,11['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton warmly added, 
106:048,12[H  ]| "Oh, no$7$! certainly not too$5#1$ tall; not in$4$ the least too$5#1$ 
106:048,13[H  ]| tall. Consider, she is sitting down$5$ ~~ which$6#1$ naturally 
106:048,14[H  ]| presents$1$ a different ~~ which$6#1$ in$4$ short gives exactly the 
106:048,15[H  ]| idea ~~ and the proportions must be preserved, you know. 
106:048,16[H  ]| Proportions, fore-shortening. ~~ Oh, no$7$! it gives one 
106:048,17[H  ]| exactly the idea of such a height as $EM#M$Miss*Smith's. Exactly 
106:048,18[H  ]| so$5#2$ indeed!" 
106:048,19[P  ]| "It is very pretty$2$," 
106:048,19['  ]| said $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse. 
106:048,19[P  ]| "So$5#1$ prettily 
106:048,20[P  ]| done! Just$5$ as your drawings always are, my dear$2#1$. I do 
106:048,21[P  ]| not know any*body who$6#1$ draws so$5#1$ well$5$ as you do. The 
106:048,22[P  ]| only thing I do not thoroughly like$1$ is, that$3$ she seems to$9$ 
106:048,23[P  ]| be sitting out$5$ of doors, with only a little shawl over her 
106:048,24[P  ]| shoulders ~~ and it makes one think she must catch$1$ cold$0$." 
106:048,25[A  ]| "But, my dear$2#1$ papa, it is supposed to$9$ be summer; 
106:048,26[A  ]| a warm$2$ day in$4$ summer. Look$1$ at the tree." 
106:048,27[P  ]| "But it is never safe to$9$ sit out$5$ of doors, my dear$2#1$." 
106:048,28[H  ]| "You, sir, may$1$ say any*thing," 
106:048,28['  ]| cried $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; 
106:048,28[H  ]| "but 
106:048,29[H  ]| I must confess that$3$ I regard$1$ it as a most happy thought$0$, 
106:048,30[H  ]| the placing of $EM#M$Miss*Smith out$5$ of doors; and the tree is 
106:048,31[H  ]| touched with such inimitable spirit! Any other situation 
106:048,32[H  ]| would have been much less in$4$ character. The nai^vete= of 
106:048,33[H  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Smith's manners ~~ and altogether ~~ Oh, it is most 
106:048,34[H  ]| admirable! I cannot keep my eyes from it. I never saw 
106:048,35[H  ]| such a likeness." 
106:048,36['  ]| The next thing wanted was to$9$ get the picture$0$ framed; 
106:048,37['  ]| and here were a few difficulties. It must be done directly; 
106:048,38['  ]| it must be done in$4$ London; the order must go through$4$ 
106:049,01['  ]| the hands of some intelligent person whose$6#1$ taste could be 
106:049,02['  ]| depended on$5$; and $EM#L$Isabella, the usual doer of all commissions, 
106:049,03['  ]| must not be applied to$5$, because it was December, 
106:049,04['  ]| and $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse could not bear$1$ the idea of her stirring 
106:049,05['  ]| out$5$ of her house in$4$ the fogs of December. But no$2$ sooner 
106:049,06['  ]| was the distress$0$ known to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, than it was removed. 
106:049,07['  ]| His gallantry was always on$4$ the alert$0$. 
106:049,07[H  ]| "Might he be 
106:049,08[H  ]| trusted with the commission, what infinite pleasure should 
106:049,09[H  ]| he have in$4$ executing it! he could ride$1$ to$4$ London at any 
106:049,10[H  ]| time. It was impossible to$9$ say how much he should be 
106:049,11[H  ]| gratified by$4$ being$1$ employed on$4$ such an errand." 
106:049,12[A  ]| "He was too$5#1$ good! ~~ she could not endure the thought$0$! 
106:049,13[A  ]| ~~ she would not give him such a troublesome office for$4$ 
106:049,14[A  ]| the world" ~~ 
106:049,14['  ]| brought on$5$ the desired repetition of entreaties 
106:049,15['  ]| and assurances, ~~ and a very few minutes settled the 
106:049,16['  ]| business. 
106:049,17['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was to$9$ take the drawing to$4$ London, chuse 
106:049,18['  ]| the frame, and give the directions; and $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ 
106:049,19['  ]| she could so$5#2$ pack it as to$9$ ensure its safety without much 
106:049,20['  ]| incommoding him, while$3$ he seemed mostly fearful of not 
106:049,21['  ]| being$1$ incommoded enough. 
106:049,22[H  ]| "What a precious deposit!" 
106:049,22['  ]| said he with a tender$2$ 
106:049,23['  ]| sigh$0$, as he received it. 
106:049,24@a   | "This man is almost too$5#1$ gallant to$9$ be in$4$ love$0$," 
106:049,25['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma. 
106:049,25@a   | "I should say so$5#2$, but that$3$ I suppose 
106:049,26@a   | there may$1$ be a hundred different ways of being$1$ in$4$ love$0$. 
106:049,27@a   | He is an excellent young man, and will$1$ suit$1$ $EM#M$Harriet 
106:049,28@a   | exactly; it will$1$ be an 
106:049,28@h   | ""Exactly so$5#2$,"" 
106:049,28@a   | as he says himself; 
106:049,29@a   | but he does sigh$1$ and languish, and study$1$ for$4$ compliments 
106:049,30@a   | rather more than I could endure as a principal$0$. I come 
106:049,31@a   | in$5$ for$4$ a pretty$5$ good share$0$ as a second$0$. But it is his 
106:049,32@a   | gratitude on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's account$0$." 
107:050,01['  ]| The very day of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's going to$4$ London produced 
107:050,02['  ]| a fresh occasion$0$ for$4$ $EM#A$Emma's services towards her friend. 
107:050,03['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet had been at Hartfield, as usual, soon after$4$ breakfast$0$; 
107:050,04['  ]| and after$4$ a time, had gone home to$9$ return$1$ again 
107:050,05['  ]| to$4$ dinner: as she returned, and sooner than had been talked 
107:050,06['  ]| of, and with an agitated, hurried look$0$, announcing something 
107:050,07['  ]| extraordinary to$9$ have happened which$6#1$ she was 
107:050,08['  ]| longing to$9$ tell. Half a minute$0$ brought it all out$5$. She 
107:050,09['  ]| had heard, as soon as she got back$5$ to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, 
107:050,10['  ]| that$3$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin had been there an hour before$5$, and 
107:050,11['  ]| finding she was not at home, nor particularly expected, 
107:050,12['  ]| had left a little parcel for$4$ her from one of his sisters, and 
107:050,13['  ]| gone away; and on$4$ opening this parcel, she had actually 
107:050,14['  ]| found, besides the two songs which$6#1$ she had lent $EM#R3$Elizabeth 
107:050,15['  ]| to$9$ copy$1$, a letter to$4$ herself; and this letter was from him, 
107:050,16['  ]| from $EM#R$Mr%*Martin, and contained a direct$2$ proposal of 
107:050,17['  ]| marriage. 
107:050,17[M  ]| "Who$6#2$ could have thought$1$ it! She was so$5#1$ 
107:050,18[M  ]| surprized she did not know what to$9$ do. Yes, quite 
107:050,19[M  ]| a proposal of marriage; and a very good letter, at least 
107:050,20[M  ]| she thought$1$ so$5#2$. And he wrote as if he really loved her 
107:050,21[M  ]| very much ~~ but she did not know ~~ and so$3$, she was come 
107:050,22[M  ]| as fast as she could to$9$ ask $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse what she 
107:050,23[M  ]| should do." ~~ 
107:050,23['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was half ashamed of her friend for$4$ 
107:050,24['  ]| seeming so$5#1$ pleased and so$5#1$ doubtful. 
107:050,25[A  ]| "Upon$4$ my word," 
107:050,25['  ]| she cried, 
107:050,25[A  ]| "the young man is determined 
107:050,26[A  ]| not to$9$ lose any*thing for$4$ want$0$ of asking. He will$1$ 
107:050,27[A  ]| connect himself well$5$ if he can." 
107:050,28[M  ]| "Will$1$ you read the letter?" 
107:050,28['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet. 
107:050,28[M  ]| "Pray do, 
107:050,29[M  ]| I'd rather you would." 
107:050,30['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was not sorry to$9$ be pressed. She read, and was 
107:050,31['  ]| surprized. 
107:050,31@a   | The style of the letter was much above$4$ her 
107:050,32@a   | expectation. There were not merely no$2$ grammatical 
107:051,01@a   | errors, but as a composition it would not have disgraced 
107:051,02@a   | a gentleman; the language, though plain, was strong and 
107:051,03@a   | unaffected, and the sentiments it conveyed very much 
107:051,04@a   | to$4$ the credit$0$ of the writer. It was short, but expressed 
107:051,05@a   | good sense, warm$2$ attachment, liberality, propriety, even$5$ 
107:051,06@a   | delicacy of feeling. 
107:051,06['  ]| She paused over it, while$3$ $EM#M$Harriet 
107:051,07['  ]| stood anxiously watching for$4$ her opinion, with a 
107:051,07[M  ]| "Well$7$, 
107:051,08[M  ]| well$7$," 
107:051,08['  ]| and was at last$0$ forced to$9$ add, 
107:051,08[M  ]| "Is it a good letter? 
107:051,09[M  ]| or is it too$5#1$ short?" 
107:051,10[A  ]| "Yes, indeed, a very good letter," 
107:051,10['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma rather 
107:051,11['  ]| slowly ~~ 
107:051,11[A  ]| "so$5#1$ good a letter, $EM#M$Harriet, that$3$ every*thing 
107:051,12[A  ]| considered, I think one of his sisters must have helped 
107:051,13[A  ]| him. I can hardly imagine the young man whom$6#1$ I saw 
107:051,14[A  ]| talking with you the other day could express$1$ himself so$5#1$ 
107:051,15[A  ]| well$5$, if left quite to$4$ his own$2$ powers, and yet it is not the 
107:051,16[A  ]| style of a woman; no$7$, certainly, it is too$5#1$ strong and 
107:051,17[A  ]| concise; not diffuse enough for$4$ a woman. No$2$ doubt$0$ he 
107:051,18[A  ]| is a sensible$2#2$ man, and I suppose may$1$ have a natural$2$ talent 
107:051,19[A  ]| for$4$ ~~ thinks strongly and clearly ~~ and when he takes 
107:051,20[A  ]| a pen in$4$ hand$0$, his thoughts naturally find proper words. 
107:051,21[A  ]| It is so$5#2$ with some men. Yes, I understand the sort of 
107:051,22[A  ]| mind$0$. Vigorous, decided, with sentiments to$4$ a certain 
107:051,23[A  ]| point$0$, not coarse. A better written letter, $EM#M$Harriet 
107:051,23['  ]| (returning 
107:051,24['  ]| it,) 
107:051,24[A  ]| than I had expected." 
107:051,25[M  ]| "Well$7$," 
107:051,25['  ]| said the still$5$ waiting $EM#M$Harriet; ~~ 
107:051,25[M  ]| "well$7$ ~~ and ~~ 
107:051,26[M  ]| and what shall I do?" 
107:051,27[A  ]| "What shall you do! In$4$ what respect$0$? Do you mean$1$ 
107:051,28[A  ]| with regard$0$ to$4$ this letter?" 
107:051,29[M  ]| "Yes." 
107:051,30[A  ]| "But what are you in$4$ doubt$0$ of? You must answer$1$ it 
107:051,31[A  ]| of course$8$ ~~ and speedily." 
107:051,32[M  ]| "Yes. But what shall I say? Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
107:051,33[M  ]| do advise me." 
107:051,34[A  ]| "Oh, no$7$, no$7$! the letter had much better be all your 
107:051,35[A  ]| own$2$. You will$1$ express$1$ yourself very properly, I am sure. 
107:051,36[A  ]| There is no$2$ danger of your not being$1$ intelligible, which$6#1$ 
107:051,37[A  ]| is the first thing. Your meaning must be unequivocal; 
107:051,38[A  ]| no$2$ doubts$0$ or demurs: and such expressions of gratitude 
107:052,01[A  ]| and concern$0$ for$4$ the pain$0$ you are inflicting as propriety 
107:052,02[A  ]| requires, will$1$ present$1$ themselves unbidden to$4$ \your\ mind$0$, 
107:052,03[A  ]| I am persuaded. \You\ need$1$ not be prompted to$9$ write 
107:052,04[A  ]| with the appearance of sorrow for$4$ his disappointment." 
107:052,05[M  ]| "You think I ought to$9$ refuse him then," 
107:052,05['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet, 
107:052,06['  ]| looking down$5$. 
107:052,07[A  ]| "Ought to$9$ refuse him! My dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, what do you 
107:052,08[A  ]| mean$1$? Are you in$4$ any doubt$0$ as to$4$ that$6#2$? I thought$1$ ~~ 
107:052,09[A  ]| but I beg your pardon$0$, perhaps I have been under a mistake$0$. 
107:052,10[A  ]| I certainly have been misunderstanding you, if 
107:052,11[A  ]| you feel in$4$ doubt$0$ as to$4$ the \purport\ of your answer$0$. I had 
107:052,12[A  ]| imagined you were consulting me only as to$4$ the wording 
107:052,13[A  ]| of it." 
107:052,14['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was silent. With a little reserve$0$ of manner, 
107:052,15['  ]| $EM#A$Emma continued: 
107:052,16[A  ]| "You mean$1$ to$9$ return$1$ a favourable answer$0$, I collect." 
107:052,17[M  ]| "No$7$, I do not; that$6#2$ is, I do not mean$1$ ~~ What shall 
107:052,18[M  ]| I do? What would you advise me to$9$ do? Pray, dear$2#1$ 
107:052,19[M  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, tell me what I ought to$9$ do?" 
107:052,20[A  ]| "I shall not give you any advice, $EM#M$Harriet. I will$1$ have 
107:052,21[A  ]| nothing to$9$ do with it. This is a point$0$ which$6#1$ you must 
107:052,22[A  ]| settle with your own$2$ feelings." 
107:052,23[M  ]| "I had no$2$ notion that$3$ he liked me so$5#1$ very much," 
107:052,23['  ]| said 
107:052,24['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, contemplating the letter. For$4$ a little while$0$ 
107:052,25['  ]| $EM#A$Emma persevered in$4$ her silence$0$; but beginning to$9$ 
107:052,26['  ]| apprehend the bewitching flattery of that$6#2$ letter might be 
107:052,27['  ]| too$5#1$ powerful, she thought$1$ it best to$9$ say, 
107:052,28[A  ]| "I lay$1#1$ it down$5$ as a general$2$ rule, $EM#M$Harriet, that$3$ if a 
107:052,29[A  ]| woman \doubts$1$\ as to$4$ whether she should accept a man or 
107:052,30[A  ]| not, she certainly ought to$9$ refuse him. If she can hesitate 
107:052,31[A  ]| as to$4$ ""Yes,"" she ought to$9$ say ""No$7$"" directly. It is not a 
107:052,32[A  ]| state$0$ to$9$ be safely entered into with doubtful feelings, with 
107:052,33[A  ]| half a heart. I thought$1$ it my duty as a friend, and older 
107:052,34[A  ]| than yourself, to$9$ say thus much to$4$ you. But do not 
107:052,35[A  ]| imagine that$3$ I want$1$ to$9$ influence$1$ you." 
107:052,36[M  ]| "Oh! no$7$, I am sure you are a great deal$0$ too$5#1$ kind$2$ to$9$ ~~ 
107:052,37[M  ]| but if you would just$5$ advise me what I had best do ~~ No$7$, 
107:052,38[M  ]| no$7$, I do not mean$1$ that$6#2$ ~~ As you say, one's mind$0$ ought to$9$ 
107:053,01[M  ]| be quite made up$5$ ~~ One should not be hesitating ~~It is 
107:053,02[M  ]| a very serious$2$ thing. ~~ It will$1$ be safer to$9$ say ""No$7$"", 
107:053,03[M  ]| perhaps. ~~ Do you think I had better say ""No$7$?"" ". 
107:053,04[A  ]| "Not for$4$ the world," 
107:053,04['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, smiling graciously, 
107:053,05[A  ]| "would I advise you either way. You must be the best 
107:053,06[A  ]| judge$0$ of your own$2$ happiness. If you prefer $EM#R$Mr%*Martin 
107:053,07[A  ]| to$4$ every other person; if you think him the most agreeable 
107:053,08[A  ]| man you have ever been in$4$ company with, why 
107:053,09[A  ]| should you hesitate? You blush$1$, $EM#M$Harriet. ~~ Does any*body 
107:053,10[A  ]| else occur to$4$ you at this moment under such a 
107:053,11[A  ]| definition? $EM#M$Harriet, $EM#M$Harriet, do not deceive yourself; 
107:053,12[A  ]| do not be run$1$ away with by$4$ gratitude and compassion. 
107:053,13[A  ]| At this moment whom$6#2$ are you thinking of?" 
107:053,14@a   | The symptoms were favourable. ~~ Instead of answering, 
107:053,15@a   | $EM#M$Harriet turned away confused, and stood thoughtfully 
107:053,16@a   | by$4$ the fire$0$; and though the letter was still$5$ in$4$ her hand$0$, 
107:053,17@a   | it was now mechanically twisted about$5$ without regard$0$. 
107:053,18['  ]| $EM#A$Emma waited the result$0$ with impatience, but not without 
107:053,19['  ]| strong hopes$0$. At last$0$, with some hesitation, $EM#M$Harriet 
107:053,20['  ]| said ~~ 
107:053,21[M  ]| "$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, as you will$1$ not give me your opinion, 
107:053,22[M  ]| I must do as well$5$ as I can by$4$ myself; and I have now 
107:053,23[M  ]| quite determined, and really almost made up$5$ my mind$0$ ~~ 
107:053,24[M  ]| to$9$ refuse $EM#R$Mr%*Martin. Do you think I am right$2#1$?" 
107:053,25[A  ]| "Perfectly, perfectly right$2#1$, my dearest $EM#M$Harriet; you 
107:053,26[A  ]| are doing just$5$ what you ought. While$3$ you were at all in$4$ 
107:053,27[A  ]| suspense I kept my feelings to$4$ myself, but now that$3$ you 
107:053,28[A  ]| are so$5#1$ completely decided I have no$2$ hesitation in$4$ approving. 
107:053,29[A  ]| Dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, I give myself joy of this. It would 
107:053,30[A  ]| have grieved me to$9$ lose your acquaintance, which$6#1$ must 
107:053,31[A  ]| have been the consequence of your marrying $EM#R$Mr%*Martin. 
107:053,32[A  ]| While$3$ you were in$4$ the smallest degree wavering, I said 
107:053,33[A  ]| nothing about$4$ it, because I would not influence$1$; but it 
107:053,34[A  ]| would have been the loss of a friend to$4$ me. I could not 
107:053,35[A  ]| have visited $EM#R1$Mrs%*Robert*Martin, of Abbey-Mill*Farm. 
107:053,36[A  ]| Now I am secure$2$ of you for*ever." 
107:053,37['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet had not surmised her own$2$ danger, but the idea 
107:053,38['  ]| of it struck her forcibly. 
107:054,01[M  ]| "You could not have visited me!" 
107:054,01['  ]| she cried, looking 
107:054,02['  ]| aghast. 
107:054,02[M  ]| "No$7$, to$9$ be sure you could not; but I never 
107:054,03[M  ]| thought$1$ of that$6#2$ before$5$. That$6#2$ would have been too$5#1$ 
107:054,04[M  ]| dreadful! ~~ What an escape$0$! ~~ Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
107:054,05[M  ]| I would not give up$5$ the pleasure and honour$0$ of being$1$ 
107:054,06[M  ]| intimate$2$ with you for$4$ any*thing in$4$ the world." 
107:054,07[A  ]| "Indeed, $EM#M$Harriet, it would have been a severe pang to$9$ 
107:054,08[A  ]| lose you; but it must have been. You would have 
107:054,09[A  ]| thrown yourself out$5$ of all good society. I must have 
107:054,10[A  ]| given you up$5$." 
107:054,11[M  ]| "Dear$7$ me! ~~ How should I ever have borne it! It 
107:054,12[M  ]| would have killed me never to$9$ come to$4$ Hartfield any 
107:054,13[M  ]| more!" 
107:054,14[A  ]| "Dear$2#1$ affectionate creature! ~~ \You\ banished to$4$ Abbey-Mill*Farm! ~~ 
107:054,15[A  ]| \You\ confined to$4$ the society of the illiterate 
107:054,16[A  ]| and vulgar all your life! I wonder$1$ how the young man 
107:054,17[A  ]| could have the assurance to$9$ ask it. He must have a pretty$5$ 
107:054,18[A  ]| good opinion of himself." 
107:054,19[M  ]| "I do not think he is conceited either, in$4$ general$0$," 
107:054,19['  ]| said 
107:054,20['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, her conscience opposing such censure$0$; 
107:054,20[M  ]| "at 
107:054,21[M  ]| least he is very good*natured, and I shall always feel much 
107:054,22[M  ]| obliged to$4$ him, and have a great regard$0$ for$4$ ~~ but that$6#2$ is 
107:054,23[M  ]| quite a different thing from ~~ and you know, though he 
107:054,24[M  ]| may$1$ like$1$ me, it does not follow that$3$ I should ~~ and 
107:054,25[M  ]| certainly I must confess that$3$ since my visiting here 
107:054,26[M  ]| I have seen people ~~ and if one comes to$9$ compare them, 
107:054,27[M  ]| person and manners, there is no$2$ comparison at all, \one\ 
107:054,28[M  ]| is so$5#1$ very handsome and agreeable. However, I do really 
107:054,29[M  ]| think $EM#R$Mr%*Martin a very amiable young man, and have 
107:054,30[M  ]| a great opinion of him; and his being$1$ so$5#1$ much attached 
107:054,31[M  ]| to$4$ me ~~ and his writing such a letter ~~ but as to$4$ leaving 
107:054,32[M  ]| you, it is what I would not do upon$4$ any consideration." 
107:054,33[A  ]| "Thank you, thank you, my own$2$ sweet little friend. 
107:054,34[A  ]| We will$1$ not be parted. A woman may$1$ not marry a man 
107:054,35[A  ]| merely because she is asked, or because he is attached to$4$ 
107:054,36[A  ]| her, and can write a tolerable letter." 
107:054,37[M  ]| "Oh! no$7$; ~~ and it is but a short letter too$5#2$." 
107:054,38['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt the bad taste of her friend, but let it pass$1$ 
107:055,01['  ]| with a 
107:055,01[A  ]| "very true; and it would be a small consolation 
107:055,02[A  ]| to$4$ her, for$4$ the clownish manner which$6#1$ might be offending 
107:055,03[A  ]| her every hour of the day, to$9$ know that$3$ her husband 
107:055,04[A  ]| could write a good letter."" 
107:055,05[M  ]| "Oh! yes, very. Nobody cares$1$ for$4$ a letter; the thing 
107:055,06[M  ]| is, to$9$ be always happy with pleasant companions. I am 
107:055,07[M  ]| quite determined to$9$ refuse him. But how shall I do? 
107:055,08[M  ]| What shall I say?" 
107:055,09['  ]| $EM#A$Emma assured her there would be no$2$ difficulty in$4$ the 
107:055,10['  ]| answer$0$, and advised its being$1$ written directly, which$6#1$ 
107:055,11['  ]| was agreed to$5$, in$4$ the hope$0$ of her assistance; and though 
107:055,12['  ]| $EM#A$Emma continued to$9$ protest against any assistance being$1$ 
107:055,13['  ]| wanted, it was in$4$ fact given in$4$ the formation of every 
107:055,14['  ]| sentence. 
107:055,14@a   | The looking over his letter again, in$4$ replying 
107:055,15@a   | to$4$ it, had such a softening tendency, that$3$ it was particularly 
107:055,16@a   | necessary to$9$ brace her up$5$ with a few decisive expressions; 
107:055,17@a   | and she was so$5#1$ very much concerned at the idea 
107:055,18@a   | of making him unhappy, and thought$1$ so$5#1$ much of what 
107:055,19@a   | his mother and sisters would think and say, and was so$5#1$ 
107:055,20@a   | anxious that$3$ they should not fancy$1$ her ungrateful, 
107:055,20['  ]| that$3$ 
107:055,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma believed 
107:055,21@a   | if the young man had come in$4$ her way 
107:055,22@a   | at that$6#2$ moment, he would have been accepted after$4$ all. 
107:055,23@a   | This letter, however, was written, and sealed, and sent. 
107:055,24@a   | The business was finished, and $EM#M$Harriet safe. 
107:055,24['  ]| She was 
107:055,25['  ]| rather low all the evening, but $EM#A$Emma could allow for$4$ her 
107:055,26['  ]| amiable regrets, and sometimes relieved them by$4$ speaking 
107:055,27['  ]| of her own$2$ affection, sometimes by$4$ bringing forward$5$ the 
107:055,28['  ]| idea of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. 
107:055,29[M  ]| "I shall never be invited to$4$ Abbey-Mill again," 
107:055,29['  ]| was 
107:055,30['  ]| said in$4$ rather a sorrowful tone. 
107:055,31[A  ]| "Nor if you were, could I ever bear$1$ to$9$ part$1$ with you, 
107:055,32[A  ]| my $EM#M$Harriet. You are a great deal$0$ too$5#1$ necessary at Hartfield, 
107:055,33[A  ]| to$9$ be spared to$4$ Abbey-Mill." 
107:055,34[M  ]| "And I am sure I should never want$1$ to$9$ go there; for$3$ 
107:055,35[M  ]| I am never happy but at Hartfield." 
107:055,36['  ]| Some time afterwards it was, 
107:055,36[M  ]| "I think $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard 
107:055,37[M  ]| would be very much surprized if she knew what had 
107:055,38[M  ]| happened. I am sure $EM#V$Miss*Nash would ~~ for$3$ $EM#V$Miss*Nash 
107:056,01[M  ]| thinks her own$2$ sister very well$5$ married, and it is only 
107:056,02[M  ]| a linen-draper." 
107:056,03[A  ]| "One should be sorry to$9$ see greater pride or refinement 
107:056,04[A  ]| in$4$ the teacher of a school, $EM#M$Harriet. I dare$1#2$ say $EM#V$Miss*Nash 
107:056,05[A  ]| would envy$1$ you such an opportunity as this of being$1$ 
107:056,06[A  ]| married. Even$5$ this conquest would appear valuable in$4$ 
107:056,07[A  ]| her eyes. As to$4$ anything superior for$4$ you, I suppose she 
107:056,08[A  ]| is quite in$4$ the dark$0$. The attentions of a certain person 
107:056,09[A  ]| can hardly be among the tittle-tattle of Highbury yet. 
107:056,10[A  ]| Hitherto I fancy$1$ you and I are the only people to$4$ whom$6#1$ 
107:056,11[A  ]| his looks$0$ and manners have explained themselves." 
107:056,12['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet blushed and smiled, and said something about$4$ 
107:056,13['  ]| wondering that$3$ people should like$1$ her so$5#1$ much. The 
107:056,14['  ]| idea of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was certainly cheering; but still$5$, after$4$ 
107:056,15['  ]| a time, she was tender-hearted again towards the rejected 
107:056,16['  ]| $EM#R$Mr%*Martin. 
107:056,17[M  ]| "Now he has got my letter," 
107:056,17['  ]| said she softly. 
107:056,17[M  ]| "I 
107:056,18[M  ]| wonder$1$ what they are all doing ~~ whether his sisters 
107:056,19[M  ]| know ~~ if he is unhappy, they will$1$ be unhappy too$5#2$. 
107:056,20[M  ]| I hope$1$ he will$1$ not mind$1$ it so$5#1$ very much. 
107:056,21[A  ]| "Let us think of those among our absent friends who$6#1$ 
107:056,22[A  ]| are more cheerfully employed," 
107:056,22['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma. 
107:056,22[A  ]| "At this 
107:056,23[A  ]| moment, perhaps, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton is shewing your picture$0$ to$4$ 
107:056,24[A  ]| his mother and sisters, telling how much more beautiful 
107:056,25[A  ]| is the original, and after$4$ being$1$ asked for$4$ it five or six times, 
107:056,26[A  ]| allowing them to$9$ hear your name$0$, your own$2$ dear$2#1$ name$0$." 
107:056,27[M  ]| "My picture$0$! ~~ But he has left my picture$0$ in$4$ Bond-street." 
107:056,28[M  ]| 
107:056,29[A  ]| "Has he so$5#2$! ~~ Then I know nothing of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. No$7$, 
107:056,30[A  ]| my dear$2#1$ little modest $EM#M$Harriet, depend upon$4$ it the picture$0$ 
107:056,31[A  ]| will$1$ not be in$4$ Bond-street till just$5$ before$3$ he mounts his 
107:056,32[A  ]| horse to-morrow. It is his companion all this evening, 
107:056,33[A  ]| his solace, his delight$0$. It opens his designs to$4$ his family, 
107:056,34[A  ]| it introduces you among them, it diffuses through$4$ the 
107:056,35[A  ]| party those pleasantest feelings of our nature, eager curiosity 
107:056,36[A  ]| and warm$2$ prepossession. How cheerful, how animated, 
107:056,37[A  ]| how suspicious, how busy their imaginations all are!" 
107:056,38['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet smiled again, and her smiles grew stronger. 
108:057,01['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet slept at Hartfield that$6#2$ night. For$4$ some weeks 
108:057,02['  ]| past$1$ she had been spending more than half her time there, 
108:057,03['  ]| and gradually getting to$9$ have a bed-room appropriated 
108:057,04['  ]| to$4$ herself; and $EM#A$Emma judged it 
108:057,04@a   | best in$4$ every respect$0$, 
108:057,05@a   | safest and kindest, to$9$ keep her with them as much as 
108:057,06@a   | possible just$5$ at present$0#1$. 
108:057,06['  ]| She was obliged to$9$ go the next 
108:057,07['  ]| morning for$4$ an hour or two to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, but it was 
108:057,08['  ]| then to$9$ be settled that$3$ she should return$1$ to$4$ Hartfield, to$9$ 
108:057,09['  ]| make$1$ a regular visit$0$ of some days. 
108:057,10['  ]| While$3$ she was gone, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley called, and sat 
108:057,11['  ]| some time with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse and $EM#A$Emma, till $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, 
108:057,12['  ]| who$6#1$ had previously made up$5$ his mind$0$ to$9$ walk$1$ out$5$, 
108:057,13['  ]| was persuaded by$4$ his daughter not to$9$ defer it, and was 
108:057,14['  ]| induced by$4$ the entreaties of both, though against the 
108:057,15['  ]| scruples of his own$2$ civility, to$9$ leave$1$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley for$4$ 
108:057,16['  ]| that$6#2$ purpose. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, who$6#1$ had nothing of 
108:057,17['  ]| ceremony about$4$ him, was offering by$4$ his short, decided 
108:057,18['  ]| answers, an amusing contrast to$4$ the protracted apologies 
108:057,19['  ]| and civil hesitations of the other. 
108:057,20[P  ]| "Well$7$, I believe, if you will$1$ excuse$1$ me, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
108:057,21[P  ]| if you will$1$ not consider me as doing a very rude thing, 
108:057,22[P  ]| I shall take $EM#A$Emma's advice and go out$5$ for$4$ a quarter$0#1$ of 
108:057,23[P  ]| an hour. As the sun is out$5$, I believe I had better take my 
108:057,24[P  ]| three turns$0$ while$3$ I can. I treat$1$ you without ceremony, 
108:057,25[P  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. We invalids think we are privileged 
108:057,26[P  ]| people." 
108:057,27[B  ]| "My dear$2#1$ sir, do not make$1$ a stranger$0$ of me." 
108:057,28[P  ]| "I leave$1$ an excellent substitute in$4$ my daughter. 
108:057,29[P  ]| $EM#A$Emma will$1$ be happy to$9$ entertain you. And therefore 
108:057,30[P  ]| I think I will$1$ beg your excuse$0$ and take my three turns$0$ ~~ 
108:057,31[P  ]| my winter walk$0$." 
108:057,32[B  ]| "You cannot do better, sir." 
108:058,01[P  ]| "I would ask for$4$ the pleasure of your company, 
108:058,02[P  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, but I am a very slow walker, and my pace$0$ 
108:058,03[P  ]| would be tedious to$4$ you; and besides, you have another 
108:058,04[P  ]| long walk$0$ before$4$ you, to$4$ Donwell*Abbey." 
108:058,05[B  ]| "Thank you, sir, thank you; I am going this moment 
108:058,06[B  ]| myself; and I think the sooner \you\ go the better. I will$1$ 
108:058,07[B  ]| fetch your great*coat and open$1$ the garden door for$4$ you." 
108:058,08['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse at last$0$ was off; but $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
108:058,09['  ]| instead of being$1$ immediately off likewise, sat down$5$ again, 
108:058,10['  ]| seemingly inclined for$4$ more chat$0$. He began speaking of 
108:058,11['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, and speaking of her with more voluntary praise$0$ 
108:058,12['  ]| than $EM#A$Emma had ever heard before$5$. 
108:058,13[B  ]| "I cannot rate$1$ her beauty as you do," 
108:058,13['  ]| said he; 
108:058,13[B  ]| "but 
108:058,14[B  ]| she is a pretty$2$ little creature, and I am inclined to$9$ think 
108:058,15[B  ]| very well$5$ of her disposition. Her character depends upon$4$ 
108:058,16[B  ]| those she is with; but in$4$ good hands she will$1$ turn$1$ out$5$ 
108:058,17[B  ]| a valuable woman." 
108:058,18[A  ]| "I am glad you think so$5#2$; and the good hands, I hope$1$ 
108:058,19[A  ]| may$1$ not be wanting." 
108:058,20[B  ]| "Come," 
108:058,20['  ]| said he, 
108:058,20[B  ]| "you are anxious for$4$ a compliment$0$, 
108:058,21[B  ]| so$3$ I will$1$ tell you that$3$ you have improved her. You have 
108:058,22[B  ]| cured her of her school-girl's giggle; she really does you 
108:058,23[B  ]| credit$0$." 
108:058,24[A  ]| "Thank you. I should be mortified indeed if I did not 
108:058,25[A  ]| believe I had been of some use$0$; but it is not every*body 
108:058,26[A  ]| who$6#1$ will$1$ bestow praise$0$ where they may$1$. \You\ do not often 
108:058,27[A  ]| overpower me with it." 
108:058,28[B  ]| "You are expecting her again, you say, this morning?" 
108:058,29[A  ]| "Almost every moment. She has been gone longer 
108:058,30[A  ]| already than she intended." 
108:058,31[B  ]| "Something has happened to$9$ delay$1$ her; some visitors 
108:058,32[B  ]| perhaps." 
108:058,33[A  ]| "Highbury gossips! ~~ Tiresome wretches!" 
108:058,34[B  ]| "$EM#M$Harriet may$1$ not consider every*body tiresome that$6#1$ 
108:058,35[B  ]| you would." 
108:058,36['  ]| $EM#A$Emma knew this was too$5#1$ true for$4$ contradiction, and 
108:058,37['  ]| therefore said nothing. He presently added, with a smile$0$, 
108:058,38[B  ]| "I do not pretend to$9$ fix on$4$ times or places$0$, but I must 
108:059,01[B  ]| tell you that$3$ I have good reason$0$ to$9$ believe your little 
108:059,02[B  ]| friend will$1$ soon hear of something to$4$ her advantage." 
108:059,03[A  ]| "Indeed! how so$5#2$? of what sort?" 
108:059,04[B  ]| "A very serious$2$ sort, I assure you;" 
108:059,04['  ]| still$5$ smiling. 
108:059,05[A  ]| "Very serious$2$! I can think of but one thing ~~ Who$6#2$ is 
108:059,06[A  ]| in$4$ love$0$ with her? Who$6#2$ makes you their confidant?" 
108:059,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was more than half in$4$ hopes$0$ of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's having 
108:059,08['  ]| dropt a hint$0$. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was a sort of general$2$ friend 
108:059,09['  ]| and adviser, and she knew $EM#H$Mr%*Elton looked up$5$ to$4$ him. 
108:059,10[B  ]| "I have reason$0$ to$9$ think," 
108:059,10['  ]| he replied, 
108:059,10[B  ]| "that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith 
108:059,11[B  ]| will$1$ soon have an offer$0$ of marriage, and from a most 
108:059,12[B  ]| unexceptionable quarter$0#2$: ~~ $EM#R$Robert*Martin is the man. 
108:059,13[B  ]| Her visit$0$ to$4$ Abbey-Mill, this summer, seems to$9$ have done 
108:059,14[B  ]| his business. He is desperately in$4$ love$0$ and means$1$ to$9$ 
108:059,15[B  ]| marry her." 
108:059,16[A  ]| "He is very obliging," 
108:059,16['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma; 
108:059,16[A  ]| "but is he sure 
108:059,17[A  ]| that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet means$1$ to$9$ marry him?" 
108:059,18[B  ]| "Well$7$, well$7$, means$1$ to$9$ make$1$ her an offer$0$ then. Will$1$ 
108:059,19[B  ]| that$6#2$ do? He came to$4$ the Abbey two evenings ago, on$4$ 
108:059,20[B  ]| purpose to$9$ consult me about$4$ it. He knows I have a 
108:059,21[B  ]| thorough regard$0$ for$4$ him and all his family, and, I believe, 
108:059,22[B  ]| considers me as one of his best friends. He came to$9$ ask 
108:059,23[B  ]| me whether I thought$1$ it would be imprudent in$4$ him to$9$ 
108:059,24[B  ]| settle so$5#1$ early; whether I thought$1$ her too$5#1$ young: in$4$ 
108:059,25[B  ]| short, whether I approved his choice$0$ altogether; having 
108:059,26[B  ]| some apprehension perhaps of her being$1$ considered 
108:059,27[B  ]| (especially since \your\ making so$5#1$ much of her) as in$4$ a line 
108:059,28[B  ]| of society above$4$ him. I was very much pleased with all 
108:059,29[B  ]| that$6#1$ he said. I never hear better sense from any*one than 
108:059,30[B  ]| $EM#R$Robert*Martin. He always speaks to$4$ the purpose; open$2$, 
108:059,31[B  ]| straight*forward, and very well$5$ judging. He told me 
108:059,32[B  ]| every*thing; his circumstances and plans, and what they 
108:059,33[B  ]| all proposed doing in$4$ the event of his marriage. He is an 
108:059,34[B  ]| excellent young man, both as son and brother. I had no$2$ 
108:059,35[B  ]| hesitation in$4$ advising him to$9$ marry. He proved to$4$ me 
108:059,36[B  ]| that$3$ he could afford it; and that$6#2$ being$1$ the case, I was 
108:059,37[B  ]| convinced he could not do better. I praised the fair lady 
108:059,38[B  ]| too$5#2$, and altogether sent him away very happy. If he 
108:060,01[B  ]| had never esteemed my opinion before$5$, he would have 
108:060,02[B  ]| thought$1$ highly of me then; and, I dare$1#2$ say, left the house 
108:060,03[B  ]| thinking me the best friend and counsellor man ever had. 
108:060,04[B  ]| This happened the night before$4$ last$2$. Now, as we may$1$ 
108:060,05[B  ]| fairly suppose, he would not allow much time to$9$ pass$1$ 
108:060,06[B  ]| before$3$ he spoke to$4$ the lady, and as he does not appear 
108:060,07[B  ]| to$9$ have spoken yesterday, it is not unlikely that$3$ he 
108:060,08[B  ]| should be at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's to*day; and she may$1$ be 
108:060,09[B  ]| detained by$4$ a visitor, without thinking him at all a tiresome 
108:060,10[B  ]| wretch." 
108:060,11[A  ]| "Pray, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley," 
108:060,11['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, who$6#1$ had been 
108:060,12['  ]| smiling to$4$ herself through$4$ a great part$0$ of this speech, 
108:060,13[A  ]| "how do you know that$3$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin did not speak 
108:060,14[A  ]| yesterday?" 
108:060,15[B  ]| "Certainly," 
108:060,15['  ]| replied he, surprized, 
108:060,15[B  ]| "I do not absolutely 
108:060,16[B  ]| know it; but it may$1$ be inferred. Was not she the whole$2$ 
108:060,17[B  ]| day with you?" 
108:060,18[A  ]| "Come," 
108:060,18['  ]| said she, 
108:060,18[A  ]| "I will$1$ tell you something, in$4$ 
108:060,19[A  ]| return$0$ for$4$ what you have told me. He did speak yesterday ~~ 
108:060,20[A  ]| that$6#2$ is, he wrote, and was refused." 
108:060,21['  ]| This was obliged to$9$ be repeated before$3$ it could be 
108:060,22['  ]| believed; and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley actually looked red with 
108:060,23['  ]| surprize$0$ and displeasure, as he stood up$5$, in$4$ tall indignation, 
108:060,24['  ]| and said, 
108:060,25[B  ]| "Then she is a greater simpleton than I ever believed 
108:060,26[B  ]| her. What is the foolish girl about$4$?" 
108:060,27[A  ]| "Oh! to$9$ be sure," 
108:060,27['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
108:060,27[A  ]| "it is always incomprehensible 
108:060,28[A  ]| to$4$ a man that$3$ a woman should ever refuse an 
108:060,29[A  ]| offer$0$ of marriage. A man always imagines a woman to$9$ be 
108:060,30[A  ]| ready for$4$ anybody who$6#1$ asks her." 
108:060,31[B  ]| "Nonsense! a man does not imagine any such thing. 
108:060,32[B  ]| But what is the meaning of this? $EM#M$Harriet*Smith refuse 
108:060,33[B  ]| $EM#R$Robert*Martin? madness, if it is so$5#2$; but I hope$1$ you are 
108:060,34[B  ]| mistaken." 
108:060,35[A  ]| "I saw her answer$0$, nothing could be clearer." 
108:060,36[B  ]| "You saw her answer$0$! you wrote her answer$0$ too$5#2$. 
108:060,37[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma, this is your doing. You persuaded her to$9$ refuse 
108:060,38[B  ]| him." 
108:061,01[A  ]| "And if I did, (which$6#1$, however, I am far from allowing,) 
108:061,02[A  ]| I should not feel that$3$ I had done wrong. $EM#R$Mr%*Martin is 
108:061,03[A  ]| a very respectable young man, but I cannot admit him 
108:061,04[A  ]| to$9$ be $EM#M$Harriet's equal$0$; and am rather surprized indeed 
108:061,05[A  ]| that$3$ he should have ventured to$9$ address$1$ her. By$4$ your 
108:061,06[A  ]| account$0$, he does seem to$9$ have had some scruples. It is 
108:061,07[A  ]| a pity$0$ that$3$ they were ever got over." 
108:061,08[B  ]| "Not $EM#M$Harriet's equal$0$!" 
108:061,08['  ]| exclaimed $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
108:061,09['  ]| loudly and warmly; and with calmer asperity, added, 
108:061,10['  ]| a few moments afterwards, 
108:061,10[B  ]| "No$7$, he is not her equal$2$ 
108:061,11[B  ]| indeed, for$3$ he is as much her superior in$4$ sense as in$4$ 
108:061,12[B  ]| situation. $EM#A$Emma, your infatuation about$4$ that$6#2$ girl blinds 
108:061,13[B  ]| you. What are $EM#M$Harriet*Smith's claims, either of birth$0#1$, 
108:061,14[B  ]| nature or education, to$4$ any connection higher than 
108:061,15[B  ]| $EM#R$Robert*Martin? She is the natural$2$ daughter of nobody 
108:061,16[B  ]| knows whom$6#1$, with probably no$2$ settled provision at all, 
108:061,17[B  ]| and certainly no$2$ respectable relations. She is known 
108:061,18[B  ]| only as parlour-boarder at a common$2$ school. She is not 
108:061,19[B  ]| a sensible$2#2$ girl, nor a girl of any information. She has been 
108:061,20[B  ]| taught nothing useful, and is too$5#1$ young and too$5#1$ simple$2$ 
108:061,21[B  ]| to$9$ have acquired any*thing herself. At her age she can 
108:061,22[B  ]| have no$2$ experience$0$, and with her little wit, is not very 
108:061,23[B  ]| likely ever to$9$ have any that$6#1$ can avail her. She is pretty$2$, 
108:061,24[B  ]| and she is good*tempered, and that$6#2$ is all. My only 
108:061,25[B  ]| scruple$0$ in$4$ advising the match$0$ was on$4$ his account$0$, as being$1$ 
108:061,26[B  ]| beneath his deserts, and a bad connexion for$4$ him. I felt, 
108:061,27[B  ]| that$3$ as to$4$ fortune, in$4$ all probability he might do much 
108:061,28[B  ]| better; and that$3$ as to$4$ a rational companion or useful 
108:061,29[B  ]| helpmate, he could not do worse. But I could not reason$1$ 
108:061,30[B  ]| so$5#2$ to$4$ a man in$4$ love$0$, and was willing to$9$ trust$1$ to$4$ there being$1$ 
108:061,31[B  ]| no$2$ harm$0$ in$4$ her, to$4$ her having that$6#2$ sort of disposition, 
108:061,32[B  ]| which$6#1$, in$4$ good hands, like$4$ his, might be easily led aright 
108:061,33[B  ]| and turn$1$ out$5$ very well$5$. The advantage of the match$0$ 
108:061,34[B  ]| I felt to$9$ be all on$4$ her side$0$; and had not the smallest 
108:061,35[B  ]| doubt$0$ (nor have I now) that$3$ there would be a general$2$ 
108:061,36[B  ]| cry-out upon$4$ her extreme$2$ good luck. Even$5$ \your\ satisfaction 
108:061,37[B  ]| I made sure of. It crossed my mind$0$ immediately 
108:061,38[B  ]| that$3$ you would not regret$1$ your friend's leaving Highbury, 
108:062,01[B  ]| for$4$ the sake of her being$1$ settled so$5#1$ well$5$. I remember 
108:062,02[B  ]| saying to$4$ myself, 
108:062,02@b   | ""Even$5$ $EM#A$Emma, with all her partiality for$4$ 
108:062,03@b   | $EM#M$Harriet, will$1$ think this a good match$0$."" " 
108:062,04[A  ]| "I cannot help$1$ wondering at your knowing so$5#1$ little of 
108:062,05[A  ]| $EM#A$Emma as to$9$ say any such thing. What! think a farmer, 
108:062,06[A  ]| (and with all his sense and all his merit$0$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin is 
108:062,07[A  ]| nothing more,) a good match$0$ for$4$ my intimate$2$ friend! 
108:062,08[A  ]| Not regret$1$ her leaving Highbury for$4$ the sake of marrying 
108:062,09[A  ]| a man whom$6#1$ I could never admit as an acquaintance of 
108:062,10[A  ]| my own$2$! I wonder$1$ you should think it possible for$4$ me 
108:062,11[A  ]| to$9$ have such feelings. I assure you mine$6$ are very different. 
108:062,12[A  ]| I must think your statement by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ fair. You are 
108:062,13[A  ]| not just$2$ to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's claims. They would be estimated 
108:062,14[A  ]| very differently by$4$ others as well$5$ as myself; $EM#R$Mr%*Martin 
108:062,15[A  ]| may$1$ be the richest of the two, but he is undoubtedly her 
108:062,16[A  ]| inferior as to$4$ rank$0$ in$4$ society. ~~ The sphere in$4$ which$6#1$ she 
108:062,17[A  ]| moves is much above$4$ his. ~~ It would be a degradation." 
108:062,18[B  ]| "A degradation to$4$ illegitimacy and ignorance, to$9$ be 
108:062,19[B  ]| married to$4$ a respectable, intelligent gentleman-farmer!" 
108:062,20[A  ]| "As to$4$ the circumstances of her birth$0#1$, though in$4$ a legal 
108:062,21[A  ]| sense she may$1$ be called Nobody, it will$1$ not hold$1$ in$4$ common$2$ 
108:062,22[A  ]| sense. She is not to$9$ pay$1$ for$4$ the offence of others, by$4$ being$1$ 
108:062,23[A  ]| held below the level of those with whom$6#1$ she is brought up$5$. 
108:062,24[A  ]| ~~ There can scarcely be a doubt$0$ that$3$ her father is a gentleman ~~ 
108:062,25[A  ]| and a gentleman of fortune. ~~ Her allowance is very 
108:062,26[A  ]| liberal; nothing has ever been grudged for$4$ her improvement 
108:062,27[A  ]| or comfort$0$. ~~ That$3$ she is a gentleman's daughter, is 
108:062,28[A  ]| indubitable to$4$ me; that$3$ she associates$1$ with gentlemen's 
108:062,29[A  ]| daughters, no*one, I apprehend, will$1$ deny. ~~ She is superior 
108:062,30[A  ]| to$4$ $EM#R$Mr%*Robert*Martin." 
108:062,31[B  ]| "Whoever might be her parents," 
108:062,31['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
108:062,32[B  ]| "whoever may$1$ have had the charge$0$ of her, it does not 
108:062,33[B  ]| appear to$9$ have been any part$0$ of their plan to$9$ introduce 
108:062,34[B  ]| her into what you would call$1$ good society. After$4$ receiving 
108:062,35[B  ]| a very indifferent education she is left in$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's 
108:062,36[B  ]| hands to$9$ shift$1$ as she can; ~~ to$9$ move$1$, in$4$ short, in$4$ 
$EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's 
108:062,37[B  ]| line, to$9$ have $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's acquaintance. 
108:062,38[B  ]| Her friends evidently thought$1$ this good enough for$4$ her; 
108:063,01[B  ]| and it \was\ good enough. She desired nothing better 
108:063,02[B  ]| herself. Till you chose to$9$ turn$1$ her into a friend, her 
108:063,03[B  ]| mind$0$ had no$2$ distaste for$4$ her own$2$ set$0$, nor any ambition 
108:063,04[B  ]| beyond$4$ it. She was as happy as possible with the $EM#R1$Martins 
108:063,05[B  ]| in$4$ the summer. She had no$2$ sense of superiority then. 
108:063,06[B  ]| If she has it now, you have given it. You have been no$2$ 
108:063,07[B  ]| friend to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith, $EM#A$Emma. $EM#R$Robert*Martin would 
108:063,08[B  ]| never have proceeded so$5#1$ far, if he had not felt persuaded 
108:063,09[B  ]| of her not being$1$ disinclined to$4$ him. I know him well$5$. 
108:063,10[B  ]| He has too$5#1$ much real feeling to$9$ address$1$ any woman on$4$ 
108:063,11[B  ]| the hap-hazard of selfish passion. And as to$4$ conceit, he 
108:063,12[B  ]| is the farthest from it of any man I know. Depend upon$4$ 
108:063,13[B  ]| it he had encouragement." 
108:063,14['  ]| It was most convenient to$4$ $EM#A$Emma not to$9$ make$1$ a direct$2$ 
108:063,15['  ]| reply$0$ to$4$ this assertion; she chose rather to$9$ take up$5$ her 
108:063,16['  ]| own$2$ line of the subject$0$ again. 
108:063,17[A  ]| "You are a very warm$2$ friend to$4$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin; but, as 
108:063,18[A  ]| I said before$5$, are unjust to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet. $EM#M$Harriet's claims to$9$ 
108:063,19[A  ]| marry well$5$ are not so$5#1$ contemptible as you represent them. 
108:063,20[A  ]| She is not a clever girl, but she has better sense than you 
108:063,21[A  ]| are aware of, and does not deserve to$9$ have her understanding 
108:063,22[A  ]| spoken of so$5#1$ slightingly. Waving that$6#2$ point$0$, however, 
108:063,23[A  ]| and supposing her to$9$ be, as you describe her, only pretty$2$ 
108:063,24[A  ]| and good-natured, let me tell you, that$3$ in$4$ the degree she 
108:063,25[A  ]| possesses them, they are not trivial recommendations to$4$ 
108:063,26[A  ]| the world in$4$ general$0$, for$3$ she is, in$4$ fact, a beautiful girl, 
108:063,27[A  ]| and must be thought$1$ so$5#2$ by$4$ ninety-nine people out$5$ of an 
108:063,28[A  ]| hundred; and till it appears that$3$ men are much more 
108:063,29[A  ]| philosophic on$4$ the subject$0$ of beauty than they are 
108:063,30[A  ]| generally supposed; till they do fall$1$ in$4$ love$0$ with well-informed 
108:063,31[A  ]| minds instead of handsome faces, a girl, with 
108:063,32[A  ]| such loveliness as $EM#M$Harriet, has a certainty of being$1$ 
108:063,33[A  ]| admired and sought after$5$, of having the power of choosing 
108:063,34[A  ]| from among many, consequently a claim$0$ to$9$ be nice. Her 
108:063,35[A  ]| good-nature, too$5#2$, is not so$5#1$ very slight$2$ a claim$0$, comprehending, 
108:063,36[A  ]| as it does, real, thorough sweetness of temper 
108:063,37[A  ]| and manner, a very humble$2$ opinion of herself, and a great 
108:063,38[A  ]| readiness to$9$ be pleased with other people. I am very 
108:064,01[A  ]| much mistaken if your sex in$4$ general$0$ would not think 
108:064,02[A  ]| such beauty, and such temper, the highest claims a woman 
108:064,03[A  ]| could possess." 
108:064,04[B  ]| "Upon$4$ my word, $EM#A$Emma, to$9$ hear you abusing the 
108:064,05[B  ]| reason$0$ you have, is almost enough to$9$ make$1$ me think so$5#2$ 
108:064,06[B  ]| too$5#2$. Better be without sense, than misapply it as you do." 
108:064,07[A  ]| "To$9$ be sure!" 
108:064,07['  ]| cried she playfully. 
108:064,07[A  ]| "I know \that$6#2$\ is 
108:064,08[A  ]| the feeling of you all. I know that$3$ such a girl as $EM#M$Harriet 
108:064,09[A  ]| is exactly what every man delights$1$ in$4$ ~~ what at once 
108:064,10[A  ]| bewitches his senses and satisfies his judgment. Oh! 
108:064,11[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet may$1$ pick and choose. Were you, yourself, ever 
108:064,12[A  ]| to$9$ marry, she is the very woman for$4$ you. And is she, at 
108:064,13[A  ]| seventeen, just$5$ entering into life, just$5$ beginning to$9$ be 
108:064,14[A  ]| known, to$9$ be wondered at because she does not accept 
108:064,15[A  ]| the first offer$0$ she receives? No$7$ ~~ pray let her have time 
108:064,16[A  ]| to$9$ look$1$ about$4$ her." 
108:064,17[B  ]| "I have always thought$1$ it a very foolish intimacy," 
108:064,18['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley presently, 
108:064,18[B  ]| "though I have kept my 
108:064,19[B  ]| thoughts to$4$ myself; but I now perceive that$3$ it will$1$ be 
108:064,20[B  ]| a very unfortunate one for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet. You will$1$ puff her up$5$ 
108:064,21[B  ]| with such ideas of her own$2$ beauty, and of what she has 
108:064,22[B  ]| a claim$0$ to$4$, that$3$, in$4$ a little while$0$, nobody within her reach$0$ 
108:064,23[B  ]| will$1$ be good enough for$4$ her. Vanity working on$4$ a weak 
108:064,24[B  ]| head$0$, produces every sort of mischief. Nothing so$5#1$ easy 
108:064,25[B  ]| as for$4$ a young lady to$9$ raise her expectations too$5#1$ high. 
108:064,26[B  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Harriet*Smith may$1$ not find offers$0$ of marriage flow$1$ 
108:064,27[B  ]| in$5$ so$5#1$ fast, though she is a very pretty$2$ girl. Men of sense, 
108:064,28[B  ]| whatever you may$1$ chuse to$9$ say, do not want$1$ silly wives. 
108:064,29[B  ]| Men of family would not be very fond of connecting 
108:064,30[B  ]| themselves with a girl of such obscurity ~~ and most 
108:064,31[B  ]| prudent men would be afraid of the inconvenience and 
108:064,32[B  ]| disgrace$0$ they might be involved in$4$, when the mystery of 
108:064,33[B  ]| her parentage came to$9$ be revealed. Let her marry 
108:064,34[B  ]| $EM#R$Robert*Martin, and she is safe, respectable, and happy 
108:064,35[B  ]| for*ever; but if you encourage her to$9$ expect to$9$ marry 
108:064,36[B  ]| greatly, and teach her to$9$ be satisfied with nothing less 
108:064,37[B  ]| than a man of consequence and large fortune, she may$1$ be 
108:064,38[B  ]| a parlour-boarder at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's all the rest$0#1$ of her 
108:065,01[B  ]| life ~~ or, at least, (for$3$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith is a girl who$6#1$ will$1$ 
108:065,02[B  ]| marry somebody or other,) till she grow desperate, and 
108:065,03[B  ]| is glad to$9$ catch$1$ at the old writing master's son." 
108:065,04[A  ]| "We think so$5#1$ very differently on$4$ this point$0$, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
108:065,05[A  ]| that$3$ there can be no$2$ use$0$ in$4$ canvassing it. We shall 
108:065,06[A  ]| only be making each other more angry. But as to$4$ my 
108:065,07[A  ]| \letting\ her marry $EM#R$Robert*Martin, it is impossible; she has 
108:065,08[A  ]| refused him, and so$5#1$ decidedly, I think, as must prevent 
108:065,09[A  ]| any second$2$ application. She must abide by$4$ the evil of 
108:065,10[A  ]| having refused him, whatever it may$1$ be; and as to$4$ the 
108:065,11[A  ]| refusal itself, I will$1$ not pretend to$9$ say that$3$ I might not 
108:065,12[A  ]| influence$1$ her a little; but I assure you there was very 
108:065,13[A  ]| little for$4$ me or for$4$ anybody to$9$ do. His appearance is so$5#1$ 
108:065,14[A  ]| much against him, and his manner so$5#1$ bad, that$3$ if she 
108:065,15[A  ]| ever were disposed to$9$ favour$1$ him, she is not now. I can 
108:065,16[A  ]| imagine, that$3$ before$3$ she had seen anybody superior, she 
108:065,17[A  ]| might tolerate him. He was the brother of her friends, 
108:065,18[A  ]| and he took pains to$9$ please her; and altogether, having 
108:065,19[A  ]| seen nobody better (that$6#2$ must have been his great assistant) 
108:065,20[A  ]| she might not, while$3$ she was at Abbey-Mill, find 
108:065,21[A  ]| him disagreeable. But the case is altered now. She knows 
108:065,22[A  ]| now what gentlemen are; and nothing but a gentleman 
108:065,23[A  ]| in$4$ education and manner has any chance$0$ with $EM#M$Harriet." 
108:065,24[B  ]| "Nonsense, errant nonsense, as ever was talked!" 
108:065,25['  ]| cried $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ 
108:065,25[B  ]| "$EM#R$Robert*Martin's manners have 
108:065,26[B  ]| sense, sincerity, and good-humour to$9$ recommend them; 
108:065,27[B  ]| and his mind$0$ has more true gentility than $EM#M$Harriet*Smith 
108:065,28[B  ]| could understand." 
108:065,29['  ]| $EM#A$Emma made no$2$ answer$0$, and tried to$9$ look$1$ cheerfully 
108:065,30['  ]| unconcerned, but was really feeling uncomfortable and 
108:065,31['  ]| wanting him very much to$9$ be gone. She did not repent 
108:065,32['  ]| what she had done; she still$5$ thought$1$ herself a better 
108:065,33['  ]| judge$0$ of such a point$0$ of female$2$ right$0$ and refinement than 
108:065,34['  ]| he could be; but yet she had a sort of habitual respect$0$ 
108:065,35['  ]| for$4$ his judgment in$4$ general$0$, which$6#1$ made her dislike$1$ having 
108:065,36['  ]| it so$5#1$ loudly against her; and to$9$ have him sitting just$5$ 
108:065,37['  ]| opposite to$4$ her in$4$ angry state$0$, was very disagreeable. 
108:065,38['  ]| Some minutes passed in$4$ this unpleasant silence$0$, with only 
108:066,01['  ]| one attempt$0$ on$4$ $EM#A$Emma's side$0$ to$9$ talk$1$ of the weather, but 
108:066,02['  ]| he made no$2$ answer$0$. He was thinking. The result$0$ of his 
108:066,03['  ]| thoughts appeared at last$0$ in$4$ these words. 
108:066,04[B  ]| "$EM#R$Robert*Martin has no$2$ great loss ~~ if he can but think 
108:066,05[B  ]| so$5#2$; and I hope$1$ it will$1$ not be long before$3$ he does. Your 
108:066,06[B  ]| views for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet are best known to$4$ yourself; but as you 
108:066,07[B  ]| make$1$ no$2$ secret$0$ of your love$0$ of match-making, it is fair to$9$ 
108:066,08[B  ]| suppose that$3$ views, and plans, and projects you have; ~~ 
108:066,09[B  ]| and as a friend I shall just$5$ hint$1$ to$4$ you that$3$ if $EM#H$Elton is the 
108:066,10[B  ]| man, I think it will$1$ be all labour in$4$ vain." 
108:066,11['  ]| $EM#A$Emma laughed and disclaimed. He continued, 
108:066,12[B  ]| "Depend upon$4$ it, $EM#H$Elton will$1$ not do. $EM#H$Elton is a very 
108:066,13[B  ]| good sort of man, and a very respectable vicar of Highbury, 
108:066,14[B  ]| but not at all likely to$9$ make$1$ an imprudent match$0$. He 
108:066,15[B  ]| knows the value$0$ of a good income as well$5$ as anybody. 
108:066,16[B  ]| $EM#H$Elton may$1$ talk$1$ sentimentally, but he will$1$ act$1$ rationally. 
108:066,17[B  ]| He is as well$5$ acquainted with his own$2$ claims, as you can 
108:066,18[B  ]| be with $EM#M$Harriet's. He knows that$3$ he is a very handsome 
108:066,19[B  ]| young man, and a great favourite$0$ wherever he goes; and 
108:066,20[B  ]| from his general$2$ way of talking in$4$ unreserved moments, 
108:066,21[B  ]| when there are only men present$5$, I am convinced that$3$ he 
108:066,22[B  ]| does not mean$1$ to$9$ throw$1$ himself away. I have heard him 
108:066,23[B  ]| speak with great animation of a large family of young 
108:066,24[B  ]| ladies that$6#1$ his sisters are intimate$2$ with, who$6#1$ have all 
108:066,25[B  ]| twenty thousand apiece." 
108:066,26[A  ]| "I am very much obliged to$4$ you," 
108:066,26['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, laughing 
108:066,27['  ]| again. 
108:066,27[A  ]| "If I had set$1$ my heart on$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's marrying 
108:066,28[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, it would have been very kind$2$ to$9$ open$1$ my eyes; 
108:066,29[A  ]| but at present$0#1$ I only want$1$ to$9$ keep $EM#M$Harriet to$4$ myself. 
108:066,30[A  ]| I have done with match-making indeed. I could never 
108:066,31[A  ]| hope$1$ to$9$ equal$1$ my own$2$ doings at Randalls. I shall leave$1$ 
108:066,32[A  ]| off while$3$ I am well$5$." 
108:066,33[B  ]| "Good morning to$4$ you," ~~ 
108:066,33['  ]| said he, rising and walking 
108:066,34['  ]| off abruptly. He was very much vexed. He felt the 
108:066,35['  ]| disappointment of the young man, and was mortified to$9$ 
108:066,36['  ]| have been the means$0$ of promoting it, by$4$ the sanction he 
108:066,37['  ]| had given; and the part$0$ which$6#1$ he was persuaded $EM#A$Emma 
108:066,38['  ]| had taken in$4$ the affair, was provoking him exceedingly. 
108:067,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma remained in$4$ a state$0$ of vexation too$5#2$; but there 
108:067,02['  ]| was more indistinctness in$4$ the causes of her's, than in$4$ his. 
108:067,03['  ]| She did not always feel so$5#1$ absolutely satisfied with herself, 
108:067,04['  ]| so$5#1$ entirely convinced that$3$ her opinions were right$2#1$ and her 
108:067,05['  ]| adversary's wrong, as $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. He walked off in$4$ 
108:067,06['  ]| more complete$2$ self-approbation than he left for$4$ her. She 
108:067,07['  ]| was not so$5#1$ materially cast down$5$, however, but that$3$ a little 
108:067,08['  ]| time and the return$0$ of $EM#M$Harriet were very adequate 
108:067,09['  ]| restoratives. 
108:067,09@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's staying away so$5#1$ long was beginning 
108:067,10@a   | to$9$ make$1$ her uneasy. The possibility of the young 
108:067,11@a   | man's coming to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's that$6#2$ morning, and meeting 
108:067,12@a   | with $EM#M$Harriet and pleading his own$2$ cause, gave 
108:067,13@a   | alarming ideas. 
108:067,13['  ]| The dread$0$ of such a failure after$4$ all 
108:067,14['  ]| became the prominent uneasiness; and when $EM#M$Harriet 
108:067,15['  ]| appeared, and in$4$ very good spirits, and without having 
108:067,16['  ]| any such reason$0$ to$9$ give for$4$ her long absence, she felt 
108:067,17['  ]| a satisfaction which$6#1$ settled her with her own$2$ mind$0$, and 
108:067,18['  ]| convinced her, that$3$ 
108:067,18@a   | let $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley think or say what 
108:067,19@a   | he would, she had done nothing which$6#1$ woman's friendship 
108:067,20@a   | and woman's feelings would not justify. 
108:067,21['  ]| He had frightened her a little about$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; but 
108:067,22['  ]| when she considered that$3$ 
108:067,22@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley could not have 
108:067,23@a   | observed him as she had done, neither with the interest$0$, 
108:067,24@a   | nor (she must be allowed to$9$ tell herself, in$4$ spite$8$ of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
108:067,25@a   | pretensions) with the skill of such an observer 
108:067,26@a   | on$4$ such a question$0$ as herself, that$3$ he had spoken it hastily 
108:067,27@a   | and in$4$ anger$0$, 
108:067,27['  ]| she was able to$9$ believe, that$3$ 
108:067,27@a   | he had rather 
108:067,28@a   | said what he wished resentfully to$9$ be true, than what he 
108:067,29@a   | knew anything about$4$. He certainly might have heard 
108:067,30@a   | $EM#H$Mr%*Elton speak with more unreserve than she had ever 
108:067,31@a   | done, and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton might not be of an imprudent, 
108:067,32@a   | inconsiderate disposition as to$4$ money-matters; he might 
108:067,33@a   | naturally be rather attentive than otherwise to$4$ them; 
108:067,34@a   | but then, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley did not make$1$ due$2$ allowance for$4$ 
108:067,35@a   | the influence$0$ of a strong passion at war with all interested 
108:067,36@a   | motives. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley saw no$2$ such passion, and of course$8$ 
108:067,37@a   | thought$1$ nothing of its effects; but she saw too$5#1$ much 
108:067,38@a   | of it, to$9$ feel a doubt$0$ of its overcoming any hesitations that$6#1$ 
108:068,01@a   | a reasonable prudence might originally suggest; and 
108:068,02@a   | more than a reasonable, becoming degree of prudence, she 
108:068,03@a   | was very sure did not belong to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. 
108:068,04['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet's cheerful look$0$ and manner established her's: 
108:068,05['  ]| she came back$5$, not to$9$ think of $EM#R$Mr%*Martin, but to$9$ talk$1$ of 
108:068,06['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. $EM#V$Miss*Nash had been telling her something, 
108:068,07['  ]| which$6#1$ she repeated immediately with great delight$0$. 
108:068,08@m   | $EM#W$Mr%*Perry had been to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's to$9$ attend a sick 
108:068,09@m   | child, and $EM#V$Miss*Nash had seen him, and he had told $EM#V$Miss*Nash, 
108:068,10@m   | that$3$ as he was coming back$5$ yesterday from Clayton*Park, 
108:068,11@m   | he had met $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and found to$4$ his great 
108:068,12@m   | surprize$0$ that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was actually on$4$ his road to$4$ London, 
108:068,13@m   | and not meaning to$9$ return$1$ till the morrow, though it was 
108:068,14@m   | the whist-club night, which$6#1$ he had been never known to$9$ 
108:068,15@m   | miss before$5$; and $EM#W$Mr%*Perry had remonstrated with him 
108:068,16@m   | about$4$ it, and told him how shabby it was in$4$ him, their 
108:068,17@m   | best player, to$9$ absent himself, and tried very much to$9$ 
108:068,18@m   | persuade him to$9$ put off his journey only one day; but it 
108:068,19@m   | would not do; $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had been determined to$9$ go on$5$, 
108:068,20@m   | and had said in$4$ a \very particular\ way indeed, that$3$ he was 
108:068,21@m   | going on$4$ business which$6#1$ he would not put off for$4$ any 
108:068,22@m   | inducement in$4$ the world; and something about$4$ a very 
108:068,23@m   | enviable commission, and being$1$ the bearer of something 
108:068,24@m   | exceedingly precious. $EM#W$Mr%*Perry could not quite understand 
108:068,25@m   | him, but he was very sure there must be a \lady\ in$4$ 
108:068,26@m   | the case, and he told him so$5#2$; and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton only looked 
108:068,27@m   | very conscious and smiling, and rode off in$4$ great spirits. 
108:068,28@m   | $EM#V$Miss*Nash had told her all this, and had talked a great 
108:068,29@m   | deal$0$ more about$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; and said, looking so$5#1$ very 
108:068,30@m   | significantly at her, 
108:068,30@v   | ""that$3$ she did not pretend to$9$ understand 
108:068,31@v   | what his business might be, but she only knew that$3$ 
108:068,32@v   | any woman whom$6#1$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton could prefer, she should 
108:068,33@v   | think the luckiest woman in$4$ the world; for$3$, beyond$4$ 
108:068,34@v   | a doubt$0$, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had not his equal$0$ for$4$ beauty or 
108:068,35@v   | agreeableness."" " 
109:069,01['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley might quarrel$1$ with her, but $EM#A$Emma 
109:069,02['  ]| could not quarrel$1$ with herself. He was so$5#1$ much displeased, 
109:069,03['  ]| that$3$ it was longer than usual before$3$ he came to$4$ 
109:069,04['  ]| Hartfield again; and when they did meet$1$, 
109:069,04@a   | his grave$2$ looks$0$ 
109:069,05@a   | shewed that$3$ she was not forgiven. She was sorry, but 
109:069,06@a   | could not repent. On$4$ the contrary, her plans and proceedings 
109:069,07@a   | were more and more justified, and endeared to$4$ 
109:069,08@a   | her by$4$ the general$2$ appearances of the next few days. 
109:069,09@a   | The Picture$0$, elegantly framed, came safely to$4$ hand$0$ 
109:069,10@a   | soon after$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's return$0$, and being$1$ hung over the 
109:069,11@a   | mantle-piece of the common$2$ sitting-room, he got up$5$ to$9$ 
109:069,12@a   | look$1$ at it, and sighed out$5$ his half sentences of admiration 
109:069,13@a   | just$5$ as he ought; and as for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's feelings, they were 
109:069,14@a   | visibly forming themselves into as strong and steady an 
109:069,15@a   | attachment as her youth and sort of mind$0$ admitted. 
109:069,16['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was soon perfectly satisfied of $EM#R$Mr%*Martin's being$1$ 
109:069,17['  ]| no$2$ otherwise remembered, than as he furnished a contrast 
109:069,18['  ]| with $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, of the utmost advantage to$4$ the latter. 
109:069,19['  ]| Her views of improving her little friend's mind$0$, by$4$ a 
109:069,20['  ]| great deal$0$ of useful reading and conversation, had never 
109:069,21['  ]| yet led to$4$ more than a few first chapters, and the intention 
109:069,22['  ]| of going on$5$ to-morrow. 
109:069,22@a   | It was much easier to$9$ chat$1$ than 
109:069,23@a   | to$9$ study$1$; much pleasanter to$9$ let her imagination range$1$ 
109:069,24@a   | and work$1$ at $EM#M$Harriet's fortune, than to$9$ be labouring to$9$ 
109:069,25@a   | enlarge her comprehension or exercise$0$ it on$4$ sober facts; 
109:069,26['  ]| and the only literary pursuit which$6#1$ engaged $EM#M$Harriet at 
109:069,27['  ]| present$0#1$, the only mental provision she was making for$4$ 
109:069,28['  ]| the evening of life, was the collecting and transcribing 
109:069,29['  ]| all the riddles of every sort that$6#1$ she could meet$1$ with, into 
109:069,30['  ]| a thin quarto of hot-pressed paper, made up$5$ by$4$ her friend, 
109:069,31['  ]| and ornamented with cyphers and trophies. 
109:069,32['  ]| In$4$ this age of literature, such collections on$4$ a very grand 
109:069,33['  ]| scale are not uncommon. $EM#V$Miss*Nash, head-teacher at 
109:070,01['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, had written out$5$ at least three hundred; 
109:070,02['  ]| and $EM#M$Harriet, who$6#1$ had taken the first hint$0$ of it from her, 
109:070,03['  ]| hoped, with $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's help$0$, to$9$ get a great many 
109:070,04['  ]| more. $EM#A$Emma assisted with her invention, memory and 
109:070,05['  ]| taste; and as $EM#M$Harriet wrote a very pretty$2$ hand$0$, it was 
109:070,06['  ]| likely to$9$ be an arrangement of the first order, in$4$ form$0$ as 
109:070,07['  ]| well$5$ as quantity. 
109:070,08['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was almost as much interested in$4$ the 
109:070,09['  ]| business as the girls, and tried very often to$9$ recollect 
109:070,10['  ]| something worth their putting in$5$. 
109:070,10[P  ]| "So$5#1$ many clever 
109:070,11[P  ]| riddles as there used to$9$ be when he was young ~~ he 
109:070,12[P  ]| wondered he could not remember them! but he hoped 
109:070,13[P  ]| he should in$4$ time." 
109:070,13['  ]| And it always ended in$4$ 
109:070,13@z   | "Kitty, 
109:070,14@z   | a fair but frozen maid." 
109:070,15@p   | His good friend $EM#W$Perry too$5#2$, whom$6#1$ he had spoken to$4$ on$4$ 
109:070,16@p   | the subject$0$, did not at present$0#1$ recollect any*thing of the 
109:070,17@p   | riddle kind$0$; but he had desired $EM#W$Perry to$9$ be upon$4$ the 
109:070,18@p   | watch$0$, and as he went about$5$ so$5#1$ much, something, he 
109:070,19@p   | thought$1$, might come from that$6#2$ quarter$0#2$. 
109:070,20['  ]| It was by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ his daughter's wish$0$ that$3$ the intellects 
109:070,21['  ]| of Highbury in$4$ general$0$ should be put under requisition. 
109:070,22['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was the only one whose$6#1$ assistance she asked. 
109:070,23@a   | He was invited to$9$ contribute any really good enigmas, 
109:070,24@a   | charades, or conundrums that$6#1$ he might recollect; 
109:070,24['  ]| and 
109:070,25['  ]| she had the pleasure of seeing him most intently at work$0$ 
109:070,26['  ]| with his recollections; and at the same time, as she could 
109:070,27['  ]| perceive, 
109:070,27@a   | most earnestly careful that$3$ nothing ungallant, 
109:070,28@a   | nothing that$6#1$ did not breathe a compliment$0$ to$4$ the sex 
109:070,29@a   | should pass$1$ his lips. 
109:070,29['  ]| They owed to$4$ him their two or three 
109:070,30['  ]| politest puzzles$0$; and the joy and exultation with which$6#1$ 
109:070,31['  ]| at last$0$ he recalled, and rather sentimentally recited, that$6#2$ 
109:070,32['  ]| well-known charade, 
109:070,33@z   | My first doth affliction denote, 
109:070,34@z   | Which$6#1$ my second$2$ is destin'd to$9$ feel 
109:070,35@z   | And my whole$0$ is the best antidote 
109:070,36@z   | That$6#2$ affliction to$9$ soften and heal. ~~ 
109:070,37['  ]| made her quite sorry to$9$ acknowledge that$3$ 
109:070,37@a   | they had transcribed 
109:070,38@a   | it some pages ago already. 
109:071,01[A  ]| "Why will$1$ not you write one yourself for$4$ us, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton? 
109:071,02['  ]| said she; 
109:071,02[A  ]| "that$6#2$ is the only security for$4$ its freshness; 
109:071,03[A  ]| and nothing could be easier to$4$ you." 
109:071,04[H  ]| "Oh, no$7$! he had never written, hardly ever, any*thing 
109:071,05[H  ]| of the kind$0$ in$4$ his life. The stupidest fellow! He was 
109:071,06[H  ]| afraid not even$5$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse" ~~ 
109:071,06['  ]| he stopt a moment ~~ 
109:071,07[H  ]| "or $EM#M$Miss*Smith could inspire him." 
109:071,08['  ]| The very next day however produced some proof of 
109:071,09['  ]| inspiration. He called for$4$ a few moments, just$5$ to$9$ leave$1$ 
109:071,10['  ]| a piece of paper on$4$ the table containing, as he said, 
109:071,11@h   | a charade, which$6#1$ a friend of his had addressed to$4$ a young 
109:071,12@h   | lady, the object$0$ of his admiration, 
109:071,12['  ]| but which$6#1$, from his manner, 
109:071,13['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was immediately convinced must be his own$2$. 
109:071,14[H  ]| "I do not offer$1$ it for$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith's collection," 
109:071,14['  ]| said he. 
109:071,15[H  ]| "Being$1$ my friend's, I have no$2$ right$0$ to$9$ expose it in$4$ any 
109:071,16[H  ]| degree to$4$ the public$2$ eye, but perhaps you may$1$ not dislike$1$ 
109:071,17[H  ]| looking at it." 
109:071,18['  ]| The speech was more to$4$ $EM#A$Emma than to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, which$6#1$ 
109:071,19['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could understand. 
109:071,19@a   | There was deep consciousness 
109:071,20@a   | about$4$ him, and he found it easier to$9$ meet$1$ her eye than her 
109:071,21@a   | friend's. 
109:071,21['  ]| He was gone the next moment: ~~ after$4$ another 
109:071,22['  ]| moment's pause$0$. 
109:071,23[A  ]| "Take it," 
109:071,23['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, smiling, and pushing the paper 
109:071,24['  ]| towards $EM#M$Harriet ~~ 
109:071,24[A  ]| "it is for$4$ you. Take your own$2$." 
109:071,25['  ]| But $EM#M$Harriet was in$4$ a tremor, and could not touch$1$ it; 
109:071,26['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma, never loth to$9$ be first, was obliged to$9$ examine 
109:071,27['  ]| it herself. 
109:071,28@h   | To$4$ $EM#X5$Miss*****. 
109:071,29@h   | CHARADE. 
109:071,30@h   | My first displays the wealth and pomp of kings, 
109:071,31@h   | Lords of the earth! their luxury and ease$0$. 
109:071,32@h   | Another view$0$ of man, my second$2$ brings, 
109:071,33@h   | Behold him there, the monarch of the seas! 
109:071,34@h   | But, ah! united, what reverse we have! 
109:071,35@h   | Man's boasted$2$ power and freedom, all are flown; 
109:071,36@h   | Lord$0$ of the earth and sea, he bends a slave, 
109:071,37@h   | And woman, lovely woman, reigns alone. 
109:071,38@h   | Thy ready wit the word will$1$ soon supply$1$, 
109:071,39@h   | May$1$ its approval beam in$4$ that$6#2$ soft eye! 
109:072,01['  ]| She cast her eye over it, pondered, caught the meaning, 
109:072,02['  ]| read it through$5$ again to$9$ be quite certain, and quite 
109:072,03['  ]| mistress of the lines, and then passing it to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, sat 
109:072,04['  ]| happily smiling, and saying to$4$ herself, while$3$ $EM#M$Harriet was 
109:072,05['  ]| puzzling over the paper in$4$ all the confusion of hope$0$ and 
109:072,06['  ]| dulness, 
109:072,06@a   | "Very well$5$, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, very well$5$, indeed. I have 
109:072,07@a   | read worse charades. \Courtship\ ~~ a very good hint$0$. 
109:072,08@a   | I give you credit$0$ for$4$ it. This is feeling your way. This is 
109:072,09@a   | saying very plainly ~~ ""Pray, $EM#M$Miss*Smith, give me leave$0$ 
109:072,10@a   | to$9$ pay$1$ my addresses to$4$ you. Approve my charade and 
109:072,11@a   | my intentions in$4$ the same glance$0$."" 
109:072,12@h   | May$1$ its approval beam in$4$ that$6#2$ soft eye! 
109:072,13@a   | $EM#M$Harriet exactly. Soft, is the very word for$4$ her eye ~~ of 
109:072,14@a   | all epithets, the justest that$6#1$ could be given. 
109:072,15@h   | Thy ready wit the word will$1$ soon supply$1$ ~~ 
109:072,16@a   | Humph ~~ $EM#M$Harriet's ready wit! All the better. A man 
109:072,17@a   | must be very much in$4$ love$0$ indeed, to$9$ describe her so$5#2$. 
109:072,18@a   | Ah! $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, I wish$1$ you had the benefit of this; 
109:072,19@a   | I think this would convince you. For$4$ once in$4$ your life 
109:072,20@a   | you would be obliged to$9$ own$1$ yourself mistaken. An 
109:072,21@a   | excellent charade indeed! and very much to$4$ the purpose. 
109:072,22@a   | Things must come to$4$ a crisis soon now." 
109:072,23['  ]| She was obliged to$9$ break off from these very pleasant 
109:072,24['  ]| observations, which$6#1$ were otherwise of a sort to$9$ run$1$ into 
109:072,25['  ]| great length, by$4$ the eagerness of $EM#M$Harriet's wondering 
109:072,26['  ]| questions. 
109:072,27[M  ]| "What can it be, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse? ~~ what can it be? 
109:072,28[M  ]| I have not an idea ~~ I cannot guess$1$ it in$4$ the least. What 
109:072,29[M  ]| can it possibly be? Do try to$9$ find it out$5$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. 
109:072,30[M  ]| Do help$1$ me. I never saw any*thing so$5#1$ hard. Is 
109:072,31[M  ]| it kingdom? I wonder$1$ who$6#1$ the friend was ~~ and who$6#2$ 
109:072,32[M  ]| could be the young lady! Do you think it is a good one? 
109:072,33[M  ]| Can it be woman? 
109:072,34@h   | And woman, lovely woman, reigns alone. 
109:072,35[M  ]| Can it be Neptune? 
109:072,36@h   | Behold him there, the monarch of the seas! 
109:073,01[M  ]| Or a trident? or a mermaid? or a shark? Oh, no$7$! 
109:073,02[M  ]| shark is only one syllable. It must be very clever, or he 
109:073,03[M  ]| would not have brought it. Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, do 
109:073,04[M  ]| you think we shall ever find it out$5$?" 
109:073,05[A  ]| "Mermaids and sharks! Nonsense! My dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, 
109:073,06[A  ]| what are you thinking of? Where would be the use$0$ of 
109:073,07[A  ]| his bringing us a charade made by$4$ a friend upon$4$ a mermaid 
109:073,08[A  ]| or a shark? Give me the paper and listen. 
109:073,09[A  ]| "For$4$ $EM#X5$Miss*****, read $EM#M$Miss*Smith.

109:073,15[A  ]| That$6#2$ is \ship\; ~~ plain as can be. ~~ Now for$4$ the cream.

109:073,19@h   | And woman, lovely woman, reigns alone. 
109:073,20[A  ]| A very proper compliment$0$! ~~ and then follows the 
109:073,21[A  ]| application, which$6#1$ I think, my dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, you cannot 
109:073,22[A  ]| find much difficulty in$4$ comprehending. Read it in$4$ 
109:073,23[A  ]| comfort$0$ to$4$ yourself. There can be no$2$ doubt$0$ of its being$1$ 
109:073,24[A  ]| written for$4$ you and to$4$ you." 
109:073,25['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet could not long resist so$5#1$ delightful a persuasion. 
109:073,26['  ]| She read the concluding lines, and was all flutter and 
109:073,27['  ]| happiness. She could not speak. But she was not 
109:073,28['  ]| wanted to$9$ speak. It was enough for$4$ her to$9$ feel. $EM#A$Emma 
109:073,29['  ]| spoke for$4$ her. 
109:073,30[A  ]| "There is so$5#1$ pointed, and so$5#1$ particular a meaning in$4$ 
109:073,31[A  ]| this compliment$0$," 
109:073,31['  ]| said she, 
109:073,31[A  ]| "that$3$ I cannot have a 
109:073,32[A  ]| moment's doubt$0$ as to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's intentions. You are 
109:073,33[A  ]| his object$0$ ~~ and you will$1$ soon receive the completest proof 
109:073,34[A  ]| of it. I thought$1$ it must be so$5#2$. I thought$1$ I could not be 
109:073,35[A  ]| so$5#1$ deceived; but now, it is clear$2$; the state$0$ of his mind$0$ 
109:073,36[A  ]| is as clear$2$ and decided, as my wishes$0$ on$4$ the subject$0$ have 
109:073,37[A  ]| been ever since I knew you. Yes, $EM#M$Harriet, just$5$ so$5#1$ long 
109:073,38[A  ]| have I been wanting the very circumstance to$9$ happen 
109:074,01[A  ]| which$6#1$ has happened. I could never tell whether an 
109:074,02[A  ]| attachment between you and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton were most 
109:074,03[A  ]| desirable or most natural$2$. Its probability and its eligibility 
109:074,04[A  ]| have really so$5#1$ equalled each other! I am very happy. 
109:074,05[A  ]| I congratulate you, my dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, with all my heart. 
109:074,06[A  ]| This is an attachment which$6#1$ a woman may$1$ well$5$ feel pride 
109:074,07[A  ]| in$4$ creating. This is a connection which$6#1$ offers$1$ nothing 
109:074,08[A  ]| but good. It will$1$ give you every*thing that$6#1$ you want$1$ ~~ 
109:074,09[A  ]| consideration, independence, a proper home ~~ it will$1$ fix 
109:074,10[A  ]| you in$4$ the centre$0$ of all your real friends, close$5$ to$4$ Hartfield 
109:074,11[A  ]| and to$4$ me, and confirm our intimacy for*ever. This, 
109:074,12[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, is an alliance which$6#1$ can never raise a blush$0$ in$4$ 
109:074,13[A  ]| either of us." 
109:074,14[M  ]| "Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse" ~~ 
109:074,14['  ]| and 
109:074,14[M  ]| "Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
109:074,15['  ]| was all that$6#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, with many tender$2$ embraces 
109:074,16['  ]| could articulate$1$ at first; but when they did arrive at 
109:074,17['  ]| something more like$4$ conversation, it was sufficiently clear$2$ 
109:074,18['  ]| to$4$ her friend that$3$ 
109:074,18@a   | she saw, felt, anticipated, and remembered 
109:074,19@a   | just$5$ as she ought. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's superiority had very 
109:074,20@a   | ample acknowledgment. 
109:074,21[M  ]| "Whatever you say is always right$2#1$," 
109:074,21['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet, 
109:074,22[M  ]| "and therefore I suppose, and believe, and hope$1$ it must 
109:074,23[M  ]| be so$5#2$; but otherwise I could not have imagined it. It is 
109:074,24[M  ]| so$5#1$ much beyond$4$ any*thing I deserve. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, who$6#1$ 
109:074,25[M  ]| might marry any*body! There cannot be two opinions 
109:074,26[M  ]| about$4$ \him\. He is so$5#1$ very superior. Only think of those 
109:074,27[M  ]| sweet verses ~~

109:074,27[M  ]| Dear$7$ me, how clever! ~~

109:074,29[A  ]| "I cannot make$1$ a question$0$, or listen to$4$ a question$0$ 
109:074,30[A  ]| about$4$ that$6#2$. It is a certainty. Receive it on$4$ my judgment. 
109:074,31[A  ]| It is a sort of prologue to$4$ the play$0$, a motto to$4$ the 
109:074,32[A  ]| chapter; and will$1$ be soon followed by$4$ matter-of-fact 
109:074,33[A  ]| prose." 
109:074,34[M  ]| "It is a sort of thing which$6#1$ nobody could have expected. 
109:074,35[M  ]| I am sure, a month ago, I had no$2$ more idea myself! ~~ 
109:074,36[M  ]| The strangest things do take place$0$!" 
109:074,37[A  ]| "When $EM#M$Miss*Smiths and $EM#H$Mr%*Eltons get acquainted ~~ 
109:074,38[A  ]| they do indeed ~~ and really it is strange; it is out$5$ of the 
109:075,01[A  ]| common$2$ course$0$ that$3$ what is so$5#1$ evidently, so$5#1$ palpably 
109:075,02[A  ]| desirable ~~ what courts the pre-arrangement of other 
109:075,03[A  ]| people, should so$5#1$ immediately shape$1$ itself into the proper 
109:075,04[A  ]| form$0$. You and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton are by$4$ situation called together; 
109:075,05[A  ]| you belong to$4$ one another by$4$ every circumstance of your 
109:075,06[A  ]| respective homes. Your marrying will$1$ be equal$2$ to$4$ the 
109:075,07[A  ]| match$0$ at Randalls. There does seem to$9$ be a something 
109:075,08[A  ]| in$4$ the air of Hartfield which$6#1$ gives love$0$ exactly the right$2#1$

109:075,10[A  ]| ought to$9$ flow$1$. 
109:075,11@z   | The course$0$ of true love$0$ never did run$1$ smooth$2$ ~~ 
109:075,12[A  ]| A Hartfield edition of $EM#Z1$Shakespeare would have a long 
109:075,13[A  ]| note$0$ on$4$ that$6#2$ passage." 
109:075,14[M  ]| "That$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton should really be in$4$ love$0$ with me, ~~ me, 
109:075,15[M  ]| of all people, who$6#1$ did not know him, to$9$ speak to$4$ him, at 
109:075,16[M  ]| Michaelmas! And he, the very handsomest man that$6#1$ 
109:075,17[M  ]| ever was, and a man that$6#1$ every*body looks$1$ up$5$ to$4$, quite 
109:075,18[M  ]| like$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley! His company so$5#1$ sought after$5$, that$3$ 
109:075,19[M  ]| every*body says he need$1$ not eat a single meal by$4$ himself 
109:075,20[M  ]| if he does not chuse it; that$3$ he has more invitations than 
109:075,21[M  ]| there are days in$4$ the week. And so$5#1$ excellent in$4$ the 
109:075,22[M  ]| Church! $EM#V$Miss*Nash has put down$5$ all the texts he has 
109:075,23[M  ]| ever preached from since he came to$4$ Highbury. Dear$7$ 
109:075,24[M  ]| me! When I look$1$ back$5$ to$4$ the first time I saw him! How 
109:075,25[M  ]| little did I think! ~~ The two $EM#ZZA$Abbotts and I ran into the 
109:075,26[M  ]| front$2$ room and peeped through$4$ the blind$0$ when we heard 
109:075,27[M  ]| he was going by$5$, and $EM#V$Miss*Nash came and scolded us 
109:075,28[M  ]| away, and staid to$9$ look$1$ through$5$ herself; however, she 
109:075,29[M  ]| called me back$5$ presently, and let me look$1$ too$5#2$, which$6#1$ 
109:075,30[M  ]| was very good-natured. And how beautiful we thought$1$ 
109:075,31[M  ]| he looked! He was arm$0$ in$4$ arm$0$ with $EM#F$Mr%*Cole." 
109:075,32[A  ]| "This is an alliance which$6#1$, whoever ~~ whatever your 
109:075,33[A  ]| friends may$1$ be, must be agreeable to$4$ them, provided at 
109:075,34[A  ]| least they have common$2$ sense; and we are not to$9$ be 
109:075,35[A  ]| addressing our conduct$0$ to$4$ fools. If they are anxious to$9$ 
109:075,36[A  ]| see you \happily\ married, here is a man whose$6#1$ amiable 
109:075,37[A  ]| character gives every assurance of it; ~~ if they wish$1$ to$9$ 
109:076,01[A  ]| have you settled in$4$ the same country and circle which$6#1$ 
109:076,02[A  ]| they have chosen to$9$ place$1$ you in$4$, here it will$1$ be accomplished; 
109:076,03[A  ]| and if their only object$0$ is that$3$ you should, in$4$ 
109:076,04[A  ]| the common$2$ phrase, be \well$5$\ married, here is the comfortable 
109:076,05[A  ]| fortune, the respectable establishment, the rise$0$ in$4$ 
109:076,06[A  ]| the world which$6#1$ must satisfy them." 
109:076,07[M  ]| "Yes, very true. How nicely you talk$1$; I love$1$ to$9$ hear 
109:076,08[M  ]| you. You understand every*thing. You and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
109:076,09[M  ]| are one as clever as the other. This charade! ~~ If I had 
109:076,10[M  ]| studied a twelvemonth, I could never have made any*thing 
109:076,11[M  ]| like$4$ it." 
109:076,12[A  ]| "I thought$1$ he meant to$9$ try his skill, by$4$ his manner 
109:076,13[A  ]| of declining it yesterday." 
109:076,14[M  ]| "I do think it is, without exception, the best charade 
109:076,15[M  ]| I ever read." 
109:076,16[A  ]| "I never read one more to$4$ the purpose, certainly." 
109:076,17[M  ]| "It is as long again as almost all we have had before$5$." 
109:076,18[A  ]| "I do not consider its length as particularly in$4$ its 
109:076,19[A  ]| favour$0$. Such things in$4$ general$0$ cannot be too$5#1$ short." 
109:076,20['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was too$5#1$ intent on$4$ the lines to$9$ hear. The most 
109:076,21['  ]| satisfactory comparisons were rising in$4$ her mind$0$. 
109:076,22[M  ]| "It is one thing," 
109:076,22['  ]| said she, presently ~~ her cheeks in$4$ 
109:076,23['  ]| a glow ~~ 
109:076,23[M  ]| "to$9$ have very good sense in$4$ a common$2$ way, like$4$ 
109:076,24[M  ]| every*body else, and if there is any*thing to$9$ say, to$9$ sit 
109:076,25[M  ]| down$5$ and write a letter, and say just$5$ what you must, in$4$ 
109:076,26[M  ]| a short way; and another, to$9$ write verses and charades 
109:076,27[M  ]| like$4$ this." 
109:076,28['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not have desired a more spirited rejection 
109:076,29['  ]| of $EM#R$Mr%*Martin's prose. 
109:076,30[M  ]| "Such sweet lines!" 
109:076,30['  ]| continued $EM#M$Harriet ~~ 
109:076,30[M  ]| "these two 
109:076,31[M  ]| last$2$! ~~ But how shall I ever be able to$9$ return$1$ the paper, 
109:076,32[M  ]| or say I have found it out$5$? ~~ Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, what 
109:076,33[M  ]| can we do about$4$ that$6#2$?" 
109:076,34[A  ]| "Leave$1$ it to$4$ me. You do nothing. He will$1$ be here 
109:076,35[A  ]| this evening, I dare$1#2$ say, and then I will$1$ give it him back$5$, 
109:076,36[A  ]| and some nonsense or other will$1$ pass$1$ between us, and you 
109:076,37[A  ]| shall not be committed. ~~ Your soft eyes shall chuse their 
109:076,38[A  ]| own$2$ time for$4$ beaming. Trust$1$ to$4$ me." 
109:077,01[M  ]| "Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, what a pity$0$ that$3$ I must not 
109:077,02[M  ]| write this beautiful charade into my book! I am sure 
109:077,03[M  ]| I have not got one half so$5#1$ good." 
109:077,04[A  ]| "Leave$1$ out$5$ the two last$2$ lines, and there is no$2$ reason$0$ 
109:077,05[A  ]| why you should not write it into your book." 
109:077,06[M  ]| "Oh! but those two lines are" ~~ 
109:077,07[A  ]| " ~~ The best of all. Granted; ~~ for$4$ private$2$ enjoyment; 
109:077,08[A  ]| and for$4$ private$2$ enjoyment keep them. They are 
109:077,09[A  ]| not at all the less written you know, because you divide 
109:077,10[A  ]| them. The couplet does not cease to$9$ be, nor does its 
109:077,11[A  ]| meaning change$1$. But take it away, and all \appropriation\ 
109:077,12[A  ]| ceases, and a very pretty$2$ gallant charade remains$1$, fit$2$ for$4$ 
109:077,13[A  ]| any collection. Depend upon$4$ it, he would not like$1$ to$9$ have 
109:077,14[A  ]| his charade slighted, much better than his passion. A 
109:077,15[A  ]| poet in$4$ love$0$ must be encouraged in$4$ both capacities, or 
109:077,16[A  ]| neither. Give me the book, I will$1$ write it down$5$, and 
109:077,17[A  ]| then there can be no$2$ possible reflection on$4$ you." 
109:077,18['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet submitted, though her mind$0$ could hardly 
109:077,19['  ]| separate$1$ the parts, so$3$ as to$9$ feel quite sure that$3$ her friend 
109:077,20['  ]| were not writing down$5$ a declaration of love$0$. It seemed 
109:077,21['  ]| too$5#1$ precious an offering for$4$ any degree of publicity. 
109:077,22[M  ]| "I shall never let that$6#2$ book go out$5$ of my own$2$ hands," 
109:077,23['  ]| said she. 
109:077,24[A  ]| "Very well$5$," 
109:077,24['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma, 
109:077,24[A  ]| "a most natural$2$ feeling; 
109:077,25[A  ]| and the longer it lasts, the better I shall be pleased. But 
109:077,26[A  ]| here is my father coming: you will$1$ not object$1$ to$4$ my reading 
109:077,27[A  ]| the charade to$4$ him. It will$1$ be giving him so$5#1$ much 
109:077,28[A  ]| pleasure! He loves any*thing of the sort, and especially 
109:077,29[A  ]| any*thing that$6#1$ pays woman a compliment$0$. He has the 
109:077,30[A  ]| tenderest spirit of gallantry towards us all! ~~ You must 
109:077,31[A  ]| let me read it to$4$ him." 
109:077,32['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet looked grave$2$. 
109:077,33[A  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, you must not refine too$5#1$ much upon$4$ 
109:077,34[A  ]| this charade. ~~ You will$1$ betray your feelings improperly, 
109:077,35[A  ]| if you are too$5#1$ conscious and too$5#1$ quick$2$, and appear to$9$ affix 
109:077,36[A  ]| more meaning, or even$5$ quite all the meaning which$6#1$ may$1$ 
109:077,37[A  ]| be affixed to$4$ it. Do not be overpowered by$4$ such a little 
109:077,38[A  ]| tribute of admiration. If he had been anxious for$4$ secrecy, 
109:078,01[A  ]| he would not have left the paper while$3$ I was by$5$; but he 
109:078,02[A  ]| rather pushed it towards you. Do not 
109:078,03[A  ]| let us be too$5#1$ solemn on$4$ the business. He has encouragement 
109:078,04[A  ]| enough to$9$ proceed, without our sighing out$5$ our 
109:078,05[A  ]| souls over this charade." 
109:078,06[M  ]| "Oh! no$7$ ~~ I hope$1$ I shall not be ridiculous about$4$ it. 
109:078,07[M  ]| Do as you please." 
109:078,08['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse came in$5$, and very soon led to$4$ the subject$0$ 
109:078,09['  ]| again, by$4$ the recurrence of his very frequent inquiry 
109:078,10['  ]| of 
109:078,10[P  ]| "Well$7$, my dears, how does your book go on$5$? ~~ Have 
109:078,11[P  ]| you got any*thing fresh?" 
109:078,12[A  ]| "Yes, papa, we have something to$9$ read you, something 
109:078,13[A  ]| quite fresh. A piece of paper was found on$4$ the table this 
109:078,14[A  ]| morning ~~ (dropt, we suppose, by$4$ a fairy) ~~ containing 
109:078,15[A  ]| a very pretty$2$ charade, and we have just$5$ copied it in$5$." 
109:078,16['  ]| She read it to$4$ him, just$5$ as he liked to$9$ have any*thing 
109:078,17['  ]| read, slowly and distinctly, and two or three times over, 
109:078,18['  ]| with explanations of every part$0$ as she proceeded ~~ and he 
109:078,19['  ]| was very much pleased, and, as she had foreseen, especially 
109:078,20['  ]| struck with the complimentary conclusion. 
109:078,21[P  ]| "Aye, that's very just$2$, indeed, that's very properly 
109:078,22[P  ]| said. Very true. 
109:078,22@h   | ""Woman, lovely woman."" 
109:078,22[P  ]| It is such 
109:078,23[P  ]| a pretty$2$ charade, my dear$2#1$, that$3$ I can easily guess$1$ what 
109:078,24[P  ]| fairy brought it. ~~ Nobody could have written so$5#1$ prettily, 
109:078,25[P  ]| but you, $EM#A$Emma." 
109:078,26['  ]| $EM#A$Emma only nodded, and smiled. ~~ After$4$ a little thinking, 
109:078,27['  ]| and a very tender$2$ sigh$0$, he added, 
109:078,28[P  ]| "Ah! it is no$2$ difficulty to$9$ see who$6#1$ you take after$4$! 
109:078,29[P  ]| Your dear$2#1$ mother was so$5#1$ clever at all those things! If 
109:078,30[P  ]| I had but her memory! But I can remember nothing; ~~ 
109:078,31[P  ]| not even$5$ that$6#2$ particular riddle which$6#1$ you have heard me 
109:078,32[P  ]| mention$1$; I can only recollect the first stanza; and there 
109:078,33[P  ]| are several. 
109:078,34@z   | Kitty, a fair but frozen maid, 
109:078,35@z   | Kindled a flame I yet deplore, 
109:078,36@z   | The hood-wink'd boy I called to$9$ aid, 
109:078,37@z   | Though of his near$2$ approach$0$ afraid, 
109:078,38@z   | So$5#1$ fatal to$4$ my suit$0$ before$5$. 
109:078,39[P  ]| And that$6#2$ is all that$6#1$ I can recollect of it ~~ but it is very 
109:079,01[P  ]| clever all the way through$5$. But I think, my dear$2#1$, you 
109:079,02[P  ]| said you had got it." 
109:079,03[A  ]| "Yes, papa, it is written out$5$ in$4$ our second$2$ page. We 
109:079,04[A  ]| copied it from the Elegant*Extracts. It was $EM#Z1$Garrick's, 
109:079,05[A  ]| you know." 
109:079,06[P  ]| "Aye, very true. ~~ I wish$1$ I could recollect more of it. 
109:079,07@z   | Kitty, a fair but frozen maid. 
109:079,08[P  ]| The name$0$ makes me think of poor $EM#L$Isabella; for$3$ she was 
109:079,09[P  ]| very near$5$ being$1$ christened $EM#X$Catherine after$4$ her grandmama. 
109:079,10[P  ]| I hope$1$ we shall have her here next week. Have you 
109:079,11[P  ]| thought$1$, my dear$2#1$, where you shall put her ~~ and what 
109:079,12[P  ]| room there will$1$ be for$4$ the children?" 
109:079,13[A  ]| "Oh! yes ~~ she will$1$ have her own$2$ room, of course$8$; 
109:079,14[A  ]| the room she always has; ~~ and there is the nursery for$4$ 
109:079,15[A  ]| the children, ~~ just$5$ as usual, you know. ~~ Why should 
109:079,16[A  ]| there be any change$0$?" 
109:079,17[P  ]| "I do not know, my dear$2#1$ ~~ but it is so$5#1$ long since she 
109:079,18[P  ]| was here! ~~ not since last$2$ Easter, and then only for$4$ a few 
109:079,19[P  ]| days. ~~ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley's being$1$ a lawyer is very 
109:079,20[P  ]| inconvenient. ~~ Poor $EM#L$Isabella! ~~ she is sadly taken away 
109:079,21[P  ]| from us all! ~~ and how sorry she will$1$ be when she comes, 
109:079,22[P  ]| not to$9$ see $EM#O$Miss*Taylor here!" 
109:079,23[A  ]| "She will$1$ not be surprized, papa, at least." 
109:079,24[P  ]| "I do not know, my dear$2#1$. I am sure I was very much 
109:079,25[P  ]| surprized when I first heard she was going to$9$ be married." 
109:079,26[A  ]| "We must ask $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$9$ dine with us, 
109:079,27[A  ]| while$3$ $EM#L$Isabella is here." 
109:079,28[P  ]| "Yes, my dear$2#1$, if there is time. ~~ But ~~ 
109:079,28['  ]| (in$4$ a very 
109:079,29['  ]| depressed tone) 
109:079,29[P  ]| ~~ she is coming for$4$ only one week. There 
109:079,30[P  ]| will$1$ not be time for$4$ any*thing." 
109:079,31[A  ]| "It is unfortunate that$3$ they cannot stay$1$ longer ~~ but 
109:079,32[A  ]| it seems a case of necessity. $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley must be 
109:079,33[A  ]| in$4$ town again on$4$ the 28th, and we ought to$9$ be thankful, 
109:079,34[A  ]| papa, that$3$ we are to$9$ have the whole$0$ of the time they can 
109:079,35[A  ]| give to$4$ the country, that$3$ two or three days are not to$9$ be 
109:079,36[A  ]| taken out$5$ for$4$ the Abbey. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley promises$1$ to$9$ give 
109:079,37[A  ]| up$5$ his claim$0$ this Christmas ~~ though you know it is longer 
109:079,38[A  ]| since they were with him, than with us." 
109:080,01[P  ]| "It would be very hard indeed, my dear$2#1$, if poor $EM#L$Isabella 
109:080,02[P  ]| were to$9$ be anywhere but at Hartfield." 
109:080,03['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse could never allow for$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
109:080,04['  ]| claims on$4$ his brother, or any*body's claims on$4$ $EM#L$Isabella, 
109:080,05['  ]| except his own$2$. He sat musing a little while$0$, and then 
109:080,06['  ]| said, 
109:080,07[P  ]| "But I do not see why poor $EM#L$Isabella should be obliged 
109:080,08[P  ]| to$9$ go back$5$ so$5#1$ soon, though he does. I think, $EM#A$Emma, 
109:080,09[P  ]| I shall try and persuade her to$9$ stay$1$ longer with us. She 
109:080,10[P  ]| and the children might stay$1$ very well$5$." 
109:080,11[A  ]| "Ah! papa ~~ that$6#2$ is what you never have been able 
109:080,12[A  ]| to$9$ accomplish, and I do not think you ever will$1$. $EM#L$Isabella 
109:080,13[A  ]| cannot bear$1$ to$9$ stay$1$ behind her husband." 
109:080,14['  ]| This was too$5#1$ true for$4$ contradiction. Unwelcome as it 
109:080,15['  ]| was, $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse could only give a submissive sigh$0$; 
109:080,16['  ]| and as $EM#A$Emma saw his spirits affected by$4$ the idea of his 
109:080,17['  ]| daughter's attachment to$4$ her husband, she immediately 
109:080,18['  ]| led to$4$ such a branch of the subject$0$ as must raise 
109:080,19['  ]| them. 
109:080,20[A  ]| "$EM#M$Harriet must give us as much of her company as she 
109:080,21[A  ]| can while$3$ my brother and sister are here. I am sure she 
109:080,22[A  ]| will$1$ be pleased with the children. We are very proud 
109:080,23[A  ]| of the children, are not we, papa? I wonder$1$ which$6#1$ she 
109:080,24[A  ]| will$1$ think the handsomest, $EM#L1$Henry or $EM#L2$John?" 
109:080,25[P  ]| "Aye, I wonder$1$ which$6#1$ she will$1$. Poor little dears, how 
109:080,26[P  ]| glad they will$1$ be to$9$ come. They are very fond of being$1$ 
109:080,27[P  ]| at Hartfield, $EM#M$Harriet." 
109:080,28[M  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say they are, sir. I am sure I do not know 
109:080,29[M  ]| who$6#1$ is not." 
109:080,30[P  ]| "$EM#L1$Henry is a fine boy, but $EM#L2$John is very like$4$ his mamma. 
109:080,31[P  ]| $EM#L1$Henry is the eldest, he was named after$4$ me, not after$4$ 
109:080,32[P  ]| his father. $EM#L2$John, the second$2$, is named after$4$ his father. 
109:080,33[P  ]| Some people are surprized, I believe, that$3$ the eldest was 
109:080,34[P  ]| not, but $EM#L$Isabella would have him called $EM#L1$Henry, which$6#1$ 
109:080,35[P  ]| I thought$1$ very pretty$2$ of her. And he is a very clever 
109:080,36[P  ]| boy, indeed. They are all remarkably clever; and they 
109:080,37[P  ]| have so$5#1$ many pretty$2$ ways. They will$1$ come and stand$1$ 
109:080,38[P  ]| by$4$ my chair, and say, 
109:080,38@y   | ""Grandpapa, can you give me a bit 
109:081,01@y   | of string?"" 
109:081,01[P  ]| and once $EM#L1$Henry asked me for$4$ a knife, but 
109:081,02[P  ]| I told him knives were only made for$4$ grandpapas. I think 
109:081,03[P  ]| their father is too$5#1$ rough with them very often." 
109:081,04[A  ]| "He appears rough to$4$ you," 
109:081,04['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
109:081,04[A  ]| "because you 
109:081,05[A  ]| are so$5#1$ very gentle yourself; but if you could compare him 
109:081,06[A  ]| with other papas, you would not think him rough. He 
109:081,07[A  ]| wishes$1$ his boys to$9$ be active and hardy; and if they 
109:081,08[A  ]| misbehave, can give them a sharp word now and then; 
109:081,09[A  ]| but he is an affectionate father ~~ certainly $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley 
109:081,10[A  ]| is an affectionate father. The children are all 
109:081,11[A  ]| fond of him." 
109:081,12[P  ]| "And then their uncle comes in$5$, and tosses them up$5$ 
109:081,13[P  ]| to$4$ the ceiling in$4$ a very frightful way!" 
109:081,14[A  ]| "But they like$1$ it, papa; there is nothing they like$1$ so$5#1$ 
109:081,15[A  ]| much. It is such enjoyment to$4$ them, that$3$ if their uncle 
109:081,16[A  ]| did not lay$1#1$ down$5$ the rule of their taking turns$0$, which*ever 
109:081,17[A  ]| began would never give way to$4$ the other." 
109:081,18[P  ]| "Well$7$, I cannot understand it." 
109:081,19[A  ]| "That$6#2$ is the case with us all, papa. One half of the 
109:081,20[A  ]| world cannot understand the pleasures of the other." 
109:081,21['  ]| Later in$4$ the morning, and just$5$ as the girls were going 
109:081,22['  ]| to$9$ separate$1$ in$4$ preparation for$4$ the regular four o'clock 
109:081,23['  ]| dinner, the hero of this inimitable charade walked in$5$ again. 
109:081,24['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet turned away; but $EM#A$Emma could receive him with 
109:081,25['  ]| the usual smile$0$, and her quick$2$ eye soon discerned in$4$ his 
109:081,26['  ]| the consciousness of having made a push$0$ ~~ of having 
109:081,27['  ]| thrown a die$0$; and she imagined he was come to$9$ see how 
109:081,28['  ]| it might turn$1$ up$5$. His ostensible reason$0$, however, was 
109:081,29['  ]| to$9$ ask 
109:081,29@h   | whether $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's party could be made up$5$ 
109:081,30@h   | in$4$ the evening without him, or whether he should be in$4$ 
109:081,31@h   | the smallest degree necessary at Hartfield. If he were, 
109:081,32@h   | every*thing else must give way; but otherwise his friend 
109:081,33@h   | $EM#F$Cole had been saying so$5#1$ much about$4$ his dining with him ~~ 
109:081,34@h   | had made such a point$0$ of it, that$3$ he had promised him 
109:081,35@h   | conditionally to$9$ come. 
109:081,36['  ]| $EM#A$Emma thanked him, but 
109:081,36@a   | could not allow of his disappointing 
109:081,37@a   | his friend on$4$ their account$0$; her father was 
109:081,38@a   | sure of his rubber. 
109:081,38['  ]| He re-urged ~~ she re-declined; and 
109:082,01['  ]| he seemed then about$4$ to$9$ make$1$ his bow$0#1$, when taking the 
109:082,02['  ]| paper from the table, she returned it ~~ 
109:082,03[A  ]| "Oh! here's the charade you were so$5#1$ obliging as to$9$ 
109:082,04[A  ]| leave$1$ with us; thank you for$4$ the sight of it. We admired 
109:082,05[A  ]| it so$5#1$ much, that$3$ I have ventured to$9$ write it into $EM#M$Miss*Smith's 
109:082,06[A  ]| collection. Your friend will$1$ not take it amiss 
109:082,07[A  ]| I hope$1$. Of course$8$ I have not transcribed beyond$4$ the eight 
109:082,08[A  ]| first lines." 
109:082,09['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton certainly did not very well$5$ know what to$9$ say. 
109:082,10['  ]| He looked rather doubtingly ~~ rather confused; said 
109:082,11['  ]| something about$4$ 
109:082,11[H  ]| "honour$0$;" ~~ 
109:082,11['  ]| glanced at $EM#A$Emma and at 
109:082,12['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, and then seeing the book open$2$ on$4$ the table, took 
109:082,13['  ]| it up$5$, and examined it very attentively. With the view$0$ 
109:082,14['  ]| of passing off an awkward moment, $EM#A$Emma smilingly said, 
109:082,15[A  ]| "You must make$1$ my apologies to$4$ your friend; but so$5#1$ 
109:082,16[A  ]| good a charade must not be confined to$4$ one or two. He 
109:082,17[A  ]| may$1$ be sure of every woman's approbation while$3$ he writes 
109:082,18[A  ]| with such gallantry." 
109:082,19[H  ]| "I have no$2$ hesitation in$4$ saying," 
109:082,19['  ]| replied $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, 
109:082,20['  ]| though hesitating a good deal$0$ while$3$ he spoke, 
109:082,20[H  ]| "I have 
109:082,21[H  ]| no$2$ hesitation in$4$ saying ~~ at least if my friend feels at all 
109:082,22[H  ]| as \I\ do ~~ I have not the smallest doubt$0$ that$3$, could he 
109:082,23[H  ]| see his little effusion honoured as \I\ see it, 
109:082,23['  ]| (looking at the 
109:082,24['  ]| book again, and replacing it on$4$ the table,) 
109:082,24[H  ]| he would 
109:082,25[H  ]| consider it as the proudest moment of his life." 
109:082,26['  ]| After$4$ this speech he was gone as soon as possible. 
109:082,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not think it too$5#1$ soon; 
109:082,27@a   | for$3$ with all his good 
109:082,28@a   | and agreeable qualities, there was a sort of parade$0$ in$4$ his 
109:082,29@a   | speeches which$6#1$ was very apt to$9$ incline her to$9$ laugh$1$. 
109:082,30['  ]| She ran away to$9$ indulge the inclination, leaving the 
109:082,31['  ]| tender$0$ and the sublime of pleasure to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's share$0$. 
110:083,01['  ]| Though now the middle of December, there had yet 
110:083,02['  ]| been no$2$ weather to$9$ prevent the young ladies from tolerably 
110:083,03['  ]| regular exercise$0$; and on$4$ the morrow, $EM#A$Emma had a charitable 
110:083,04['  ]| visit$0$ to$9$ pay$1$ to$4$ a poor sick family, who$6#1$ lived a little 
110:083,05['  ]| way out$5$ of Highbury. 
110:083,06['  ]| Their road to$4$ this detached cottage was down$4$ Vicarage-lane, 
110:083,07['  ]| a lane leading at right-angles from the broad, though 
110:083,08['  ]| irregular, main$2$ street of the place$0$; and, as may$1$ be 
110:083,09['  ]| inferred, containing the blessed abode of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. A few 
110:083,10['  ]| inferior dwellings were first to$9$ be passed, and then, about$4$ 
110:083,11['  ]| a quarter$0#1$ of a mile down$4$ the lane rose$1$ the Vicarage; an 
110:083,12['  ]| old and not very good house, almost as close$5$ to$4$ the road 
110:083,13['  ]| as it could be. It had no$2$ advantage of situation; but 
110:083,14['  ]| had been very much smartened up$5$ by$4$ the present$2$ proprietor; 
110:083,15['  ]| and, such as it was, there could be no$2$ possibility 
110:083,16['  ]| of the two friends passing it without a slackened pace$0$ and 
110:083,17['  ]| observing eyes. ~~ $EM#A$Emma's remark$0$ was ~~ 
110:083,18[A  ]| "There it is. There go you and your riddle-book one 
110:083,19[A  ]| of these days." ~~ 
110:083,19['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet's was ~~ 
110:083,20[M  ]| "Oh! what a sweet house! ~~ How very beautiful! ~~ 
110:083,21[M  ]| There are the yellow curtains that$6#1$ $EM#V$Miss*Nash admires so$5#1$ 
110:083,22[M  ]| much." 
110:083,23[A  ]| "I do not often walk$1$ this way \now\," 
110:083,23['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, as 
110:083,24['  ]| they proceeded, 
110:083,24[A  ]| "but \then\ there will$1$ be an inducement, 
110:083,25[A  ]| and I shall gradually get intimately acquainted with all 
110:083,26[A  ]| the hedges, gates, pools, and pollards of this part$0$ of 
110:083,27[A  ]| Highbury." 
110:083,28['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, she found, had never in$4$ her life been within*side 
110:083,29['  ]| the Vicarage, and her curiosity to$9$ see it was so$5#1$ 
110:083,30['  ]| extreme$2$, that$3$, considering exteriors and probabilities, 
110:083,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could only class$1$ it, as a proof of love$0$, with $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
110:083,32['  ]| seeing ready wit in$4$ her. 
110:083,33[A  ]| "I wish$1$ we could contrive it," 
110:083,33['  ]| said she; 
110:083,33[A  ]| "but I cannot 
110:084,01[A  ]| think of any tolerable pretence for$4$ going in$5$; ~~ no$2$ servant 
110:084,02[A  ]| that$6#1$ I want$1$ to$9$ inquire about$4$ of his housekeeper ~~ no$2$ 
110:084,03[A  ]| message from my father." 
110:084,04['  ]| She pondered, but could think of nothing. After$4$ 
110:084,05['  ]| a mutual silence$0$ of some minutes, $EM#M$Harriet thus began 
110:084,06['  ]| again ~~ 
110:084,07[M  ]| "I do so$5#1$ wonder$1$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, that$3$ you should not 
110:084,08[M  ]| be married, or going to$9$ be married! so$5#1$ charming as you 
110:084,09[M  ]| are!" ~~ 
110:084,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma laughed, and replied, 
110:084,11[A  ]| "My being$1$ charming, $EM#M$Harriet, is not quite enough to$9$ 
110:084,12[A  ]| induce me to$9$ marry; I must find other people charming ~~ 
110:084,13[A  ]| one other person at least. And I am not only, not going 
110:084,14[A  ]| to$9$ be married, at present$0#1$, but have very little intention 
110:084,15[A  ]| of ever marrying at all." 
110:084,16[M  ]| "Ah! ~~ so$5#2$ you say; but I cannot believe it." 
110:084,17[A  ]| "I must see somebody very superior to$4$ any*one I have 
110:084,18[A  ]| seen yet, to$9$ be tempted; $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, you know, 
110:084,18['  ]| (recollecting 
110:084,19['  ]| herself,) 
110:084,19[A  ]| is out$5$ of the question$0$: and I do \not\ wish$1$ to$9$ see 
110:084,20[A  ]| any such person. I would rather not be tempted. I 
110:084,21[A  ]| cannot really change$1$ for$4$ the better. If I were to$9$ marry, 
110:084,22[A  ]| I must expect to$9$ repent it." 
110:084,23[M  ]| "Dear$7$ me! ~~ it is so$5#1$ odd to$9$ hear a woman talk$1$ so$5#2$!" ~~ 
110:084,24[A  ]| "I have none of the usual inducements of women to$9$ 
110:084,25[A  ]| marry. Were I to$9$ fall$1$ in$4$ love$0$, indeed, it would be a 
110:084,26[A  ]| different thing! but I never have been in$4$ love$0$; it is not 
110:084,27[A  ]| my way, or my nature; and I do not think I ever shall. 
110:084,28[A  ]| And, without love$0$, I am sure I should be a fool to$9$ change$1$ 
110:084,29[A  ]| such a situation as mine$6$. Fortune I do not want$1$; employment 
110:084,30[A  ]| I do not want$1$; consequence I do not want$1$: I believe 
110:084,31[A  ]| few married women are half as much mistress of 
110:084,32[A  ]| their husband's house, as I am of Hartfield; and never, 
110:084,33[A  ]| never could I expect to$9$ be so$5#1$ truly beloved and important; 
110:084,34[A  ]| so$5#1$ always first and always right$2#1$ in$4$ any man's eyes as I am 
110:084,35[A  ]| in$4$ my father's." 
110:084,36[M  ]| "But then, to$9$ be an old maid at last$0$, like$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates!" 
110:084,37[A  ]| "That$6#2$ is as formidable an image as you could present$1$, 
110:084,38[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet; and if I thought$1$ I should ever be like$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates! 
110:085,01[A  ]| so$5#1$ silly ~~ so$5#1$ satisfied ~~ so$5#1$ smiling ~~ so$5#1$ prosing ~~ so$5#1$ 
110:085,02[A  ]| undistinguishing and unfastidious ~~ and so$5#1$ apt to$9$ tell 
110:085,03[A  ]| every*thing relative to$4$ every*body about$4$ me, I would 
110:085,04[A  ]| marry to-morrow. But between \us\, I am convinced there 
110:085,05[A  ]| never can be any likeness, except in$4$ being$1$ unmarried." 
110:085,06[M  ]| "But still$5$, you will$1$ be an old maid! and that's so$5#1$ 
110:085,07[M  ]| dreadful!" 
110:085,08[A  ]| "Never mind$1$, $EM#M$Harriet, I shall not be a poor old maid; 
110:085,09[A  ]| and it is poverty only which$6#1$ makes celibacy contemptible 
110:085,10[A  ]| to$4$ a generous public$0$! A single woman, with a very 
110:085,11[A  ]| narrow income, must be a ridiculous, disagreeable, old 
110:085,12[A  ]| maid! the proper sport$0$ of boys and girls; but a single 
110:085,13[A  ]| woman, of good fortune, is always respectable, and may$1$ 
110:085,14[A  ]| be as sensible$2#2$ and pleasant as anybody else. And the 
110:085,15[A  ]| distinction is not quite so$5#1$ much against the candour and 
110:085,16[A  ]| common$2$ sense of the world as appears at first; for$3$ a very 
110:085,17[A  ]| narrow income has a tendency to$9$ contract the mind$0$, and 
110:085,18[A  ]| sour the temper. Those who$6#1$ can barely live, and who$6#1$ 
110:085,19[A  ]| live perforce in$4$ a very small, and generally very inferior, 
110:085,20[A  ]| society, may$1$ well$5$ be illiberal and cross$2$. This does not 
110:085,21[A  ]| apply, however, to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates; she is only too$5#1$ good*natured 
110:085,22[A  ]| and too$5#1$ silly to$9$ suit$1$ me; but, in$4$ general$0$, she is 
110:085,23[A  ]| very much to$4$ the taste of everybody, though single and 
110:085,24[A  ]| though poor. Poverty certainly has not contracted her 
110:085,25[A  ]| mind$0$: I really believe, if she had only a shilling in$4$ the 
110:085,26[A  ]| world, she would be very likely to$9$ give away sixpence of 
110:085,27[A  ]| it; and nobody is afraid of her: that$6#2$ is a great charm$0$." 
110:085,28[M  ]| "Dear$7$ me! but what shall you do? how shall you 
110:085,29[M  ]| employ yourself when you grow old?" 
110:085,30[A  ]| "If I know myself, $EM#M$Harriet, mine$6$ is an active, busy 
110:085,31[A  ]| mind$0$, with a great many independent resources; and 
110:085,32[A  ]| I do not perceive why I should be more in$4$ want$0$ of employment 
110:085,33[A  ]| at forty or fifty than one-and-twenty. Woman's 
110:085,34[A  ]| usual occupations of eye and hand$0$ and mind$0$ will$1$ be as 
110:085,35[A  ]| open$2$ to$4$ me then, as they are now; or with no$2$ important 
110:085,36[A  ]| variation. If I draw less, I shall read more; if I give up$5$ 
110:085,37[A  ]| music, I shall take to$4$ carpet-work. And as for$4$ objects$0$ of 
110:085,38[A  ]| interest$0$, objects$0$ for$4$ the affections, which$6#1$ is in$4$ truth the 
110:086,01[A  ]| great point$0$ of inferiority, the want$0$ of which$6#1$ is really the 
110:086,02[A  ]| great evil to$9$ be avoided in$4$ \not\ marrying, I shall be very 
110:086,03[A  ]| well$5$ off, with all the children of a sister I love$1$ so$5#1$ much, to$9$ 
110:086,04[A  ]| care$1$ about$4$. There will$1$ be enough of them, in$4$ all probability, 
110:086,05[A  ]| to$9$ supply$1$ every sort of sensation$0#1$ that$6#1$ declining 
110:086,06[A  ]| life can need$1$. There will$1$ be enough for$4$ every hope$0$ and 
110:086,07[A  ]| every fear$0$; and though my attachment to$4$ none can equal$1$ 
110:086,08[A  ]| that$6#2$ of a parent, it suits my ideas of comfort$0$ better than 
110:086,09[A  ]| what is warmer and blinder. My nephews and nieces! ~~ 
110:086,10[A  ]| I shall often have a niece with me." 
110:086,11[M  ]| "Do you know $EM#D$Miss*Bates's niece? That$6#2$ is, I know 
110:086,12[M  ]| you must have seen her a hundred times ~~ but are you 
110:086,13[M  ]| acquainted?" 
110:086,14[A  ]| "Oh! yes; we are always forced to$9$ be acquainted 
110:086,15[A  ]| whenever she comes to$4$ Highbury. By*the*bye, \that$6#2$\ is 
110:086,16[A  ]| almost enough to$9$ put one out$5$ of conceit with a niece. 
110:086,17[A  ]| Heaven forbid! at least, that$3$ I should ever bore$1#2$ people 
110:086,18[A  ]| half so$5#1$ much about$4$ all the $EM#K1$Knightleys together, as she 
110:086,19[A  ]| does about$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. One is sick of the very name$0$ 
110:086,20[A  ]| of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. Every letter from her is read forty times 
110:086,21[A  ]| over; her compliments to$4$ all friends go round$5$ and round$5$ 
110:086,22[A  ]| again; and if she does but send her aunt the pattern of 
110:086,23[A  ]| a stomacher, or knit a pair$0$ of garters for$4$ her grandmother, 
110:086,24[A  ]| one hears of nothing else for$4$ a month. I wish$1$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
110:086,25[A  ]| very well$5$; but she tires me to$4$ death." 
110:086,26['  ]| They were now approaching the cottage, and all idle 
110:086,27['  ]| topics were superseded. $EM#A$Emma was very compassionate; 
110:086,28['  ]| and the distresses of the poor were as sure of relief from 
110:086,29['  ]| her personal attention and kindness, her counsel$0$ and her 
110:086,30['  ]| patience, as from her purse. She understood their ways, 
110:086,31['  ]| could allow for$4$ their ignorance and their temptations, had 
110:086,32['  ]| no$2$ romantic expectations of extraordinary virtue from 
110:086,33['  ]| those, for$4$ whom$6#1$ education had done so$5#1$ little; entered 
110:086,34['  ]| into their troubles with ready sympathy, and always 
110:086,35['  ]| gave her assistance with as much intelligence as good-will. 
110:086,36['  ]| In$4$ the present$2$ instance$0$, it was sickness and poverty 
110:086,37['  ]| together which$6#1$ she came to$9$ visit$1$; and after$4$ remaining 
110:086,38['  ]| there as long as she could give comfort$0$ or advice, she 
110:087,01['  ]| quitted the cottage with such an impression of the scene 
110:087,02['  ]| as made her say to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, as they walked away, 
110:087,03[A  ]| "These are the sights, $EM#M$Harriet, to$9$ do one good. How 
110:087,04[A  ]| trifling they make$1$ every*thing else appear! ~~ I feel now 
110:087,05[A  ]| as if I could think of nothing but these poor creatures all 
110:087,06[A  ]| the rest$0#1$ of the day; and yet, who$6#2$ can say how soon it 
110:087,07[A  ]| may$1$ all vanish from my mind$0$?" 
110:087,08[M  ]| "Very true," 
110:087,08['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet. 
110:087,08[M  ]| "Poor creatures! one can 
110:087,09[M  ]| think of nothing else." 
110:087,10[A  ]| "And really, I do not think the impression will$1$ soon 
110:087,11[A  ]| be over," 
110:087,11['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, as she crossed the low hedge, and 
110:087,12['  ]| tottering footstep which$6#1$ ended the narrow, slippery path 
110:087,13['  ]| through$4$ the cottage garden, and brought them into the 
110:087,14['  ]| lane again. 
110:087,14[A  ]| "I do not think it will$1$," 
110:087,14['  ]| stopping to$9$ look$1$ 
110:087,15['  ]| once more at all the outward wretchedness of the place$0$, 
110:087,16['  ]| and recal$0$ the still$5$ greater within. 
110:087,17[M  ]| "Oh! dear$7$, no$7$," 
110:087,17['  ]| said her companion. 
110:087,18['  ]| They walked on$5$. The lane made a slight$2$ bend$0$; and 
110:087,19['  ]| when that$6#2$ bend$0$ was passed, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was immediately 
110:087,20['  ]| in$4$ sight; and so$5#1$ near$5$ as to$9$ give $EM#A$Emma time only to$9$ say 
110:087,21['  ]| farther, 
110:087,22[A  ]| "Ah! $EM#M$Harriet, here comes a very sudden$2$ trial of our 
110:087,23[A  ]| stability in$4$ good thoughts. Well$7$, 
110:087,23['  ]| (smiling,) 
110:087,23[A  ]| I hope$1$ it may$1$ 
110:087,24[A  ]| be allowed that$3$ if compassion has produced exertion and 
110:087,25[A  ]| relief to$4$ the sufferers, it has done all that$6#1$ is truly important. 
110:087,26[A  ]| If we feel for$4$ the wretched, enough to$9$ do all we can for$4$ 
110:087,27[A  ]| them, the rest$0#1$ is empty$2$ sympathy, only distressing to$4$ 
110:087,28[A  ]| ourselves." 
110:087,29['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet could just$5$ answer$1$, 
110:087,29[M  ]| "Oh! dear$7$, yes," 
110:087,29['  ]| before$3$ the 
110:087,30['  ]| gentleman joined them. The wants$0$ and sufferings of the 
110:087,31['  ]| poor family, however, were the first subject$0$ on$4$ meeting. 
110:087,32@h   | He had been going to$9$ call$1$ on$4$ them. His visit$0$ he would 
110:087,33@h   | now defer; 
110:087,33['  ]| but they had a very interesting parley about$4$ 
110:087,34['  ]| what could be done and should be done. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton then 
110:087,35['  ]| turned back$5$ to$9$ accompany them. 
110:087,36@a   | "To$9$ fall$1$ in$5$ with each other on$4$ such an errand as this," 
110:087,37['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma; 
110:087,37@a   | "to$9$ meet$1$ in$4$ a charitable scheme$0$; this 
110:087,38@a   | will$1$ bring a great increase$0$ of love$0$ on$4$ each side$0$. I should 
110:088,01@a   | not wonder$1$ if it were to$9$ bring on$5$ the declaration. It must, 
110:088,02@a   | if I were not here. I wish$1$ I were anywhere else." 
110:088,03['  ]| Anxious to$9$ separate$1$ herself from them as far as she 
110:088,04['  ]| could, she soon afterwards took possession of a narrow 
110:088,05['  ]| footpath, a little raised on$4$ one side$0$ of the lane, leaving 
110:088,06['  ]| them together in$4$ the main$2$ road. But she had not been 
110:088,07['  ]| there two minutes when she found that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's habits 
110:088,08['  ]| of dependence and imitation were bringing her up$5$ too$5#2$, and 
110:088,09['  ]| that$3$, in$4$ short, they would both be soon after$4$ her. This 
110:088,10['  ]| would not do; she immediately stopped, under pretence 
110:088,11['  ]| of having some alteration to$9$ make$1$ in$4$ the lacing of her 
110:088,12['  ]| half-boot, and stooping down$5$ in$4$ complete$2$ occupation of 
110:088,13['  ]| the footpath, begged them to$9$ 
110:088,13@a   | have the goodness to$9$ walk$1$ 
110:088,14@a   | on$5$, and she would follow in$4$ half a minute$0$. 
110:088,14['  ]| They did as 
110:088,15['  ]| they were desired; and by$4$ the time she judged it reasonable 
110:088,16['  ]| to$9$ have done with her boot, she had the comfort$0$ of 
110:088,17['  ]| further delay$0$ in$4$ her power, being$1$ overtaken by$4$ a child 
110:088,18['  ]| from the cottage, setting out$5$, according to$4$ orders$0#1$, with 
110:088,19['  ]| her pitcher, to$9$ fetch broth from Hartfield. To$9$ walk$1$ by$4$ 
110:088,20['  ]| the side$0$ of this child, and talk$1$ to$4$ and question$1$ her, was 
110:088,21['  ]| the most natural$2$ thing in$4$ the world, or would have been 
110:088,22['  ]| the most natural$2$, had she been acting just$5$ then without 
110:088,23['  ]| design$0$; and by$4$ this means$0$ the others were still$5$ able to$9$ 
110:088,24['  ]| keep ahead, without any obligation of waiting for$4$ her. 
110:088,25['  ]| She gained on$4$ them, however, involuntarily; the child's 
110:088,26['  ]| pace$0$ was quick$2$, and theirs rather slow; and she was the 
110:088,27['  ]| more concerned at it, from their being$1$ evidently in$4$ a conversation 
110:088,28['  ]| which$6#1$ interested them. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was speaking 
110:088,29['  ]| with animation, $EM#M$Harriet listening with a very pleased 
110:088,30['  ]| attention; and $EM#A$Emma having sent the child on$5$, was 
110:088,31['  ]| beginning to$9$ think how she might draw back$5$ a little more, 
110:088,32['  ]| when they both looked around$5$, and she was obliged to$9$ 
110:088,33['  ]| join them. 
110:088,34['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was still$5$ talking, still$5$ engaged in$4$ some 
110:088,35['  ]| interesting detail$0$; and $EM#A$Emma experienced some disappointment 
110:088,36['  ]| when she found that$3$ he was only giving his 
110:088,37['  ]| fair companion an account$0$ of the yesterday's party at his 
110:088,38['  ]| friend $EM#F$Cole's, and that$3$ she was come in$5$ herself for$4$ the 
110:089,01['  ]| Stilton cheese, the north Wiltshire, the butter, the cellery, 
110:089,02['  ]| the beet-root and all the dessert. 
110:089,03@a   | "This would soon have led to$4$ something better of 
110:089,04@a   | course$8$," 
110:089,04['  ]| was her consoling reflection; 
110:089,04@a   | "any*thing 
110:089,05@a   | interests$1$ between those who$6#1$ love$1$; and any*thing will$1$ 
110:089,06@a   | serve as introduction to$4$ what is near$4$ the heart. If I could 
110:089,07@a   | but have kept longer away!" 
110:089,08['  ]| They now walked on$5$ together quietly, till within view$0$ 
110:089,09['  ]| of the vicarage pales, when a sudden$2$ resolution, of at least 
110:089,10['  ]| getting $EM#M$Harriet into the house, made her again find something 
110:089,11['  ]| very much amiss about$4$ her boot, and fall$1$ behind 
110:089,12['  ]| to$9$ arrange it once more. She then broke the lace$0$ off short, 
110:089,13['  ]| and dexterously throwing it into a ditch, was presently 
110:089,14['  ]| obliged to$9$ entreat them to$9$ stop$1$, and acknowledge her 
110:089,15['  ]| inability to$9$ put herself to$4$ rights so$3$ as to$9$ be able to$9$ walk$1$ 
110:089,16['  ]| home in$4$ tolerable comfort$0$. 
110:089,17[A  ]| "Part$0$ of my lace$0$ is gone," 
110:089,17['  ]| said she, 
110:089,17[A  ]| "and I do not 
110:089,18[A  ]| know how I am to$9$ contrive. I really am a most troublesome 
110:089,19[A  ]| companion to$4$ you both, but I hope$1$ I am not often 
110:089,20[A  ]| so$5#1$ ill-equipped. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, I must beg leave$0$ to$9$ stop$1$ at 
110:089,21[A  ]| your house, and ask your housekeeper for$4$ a bit of ribband 
110:089,22[A  ]| or string, or any*thing just$5$ to$9$ keep my boot on$5$." 
110:089,23['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton looked all happiness at this proposition; and 
110:089,24['  ]| nothing could exceed his alertness and attention in$4$ conducting 
110:089,25['  ]| them into his house and endeavouring to$9$ make$1$ 
110:089,26['  ]| every*thing appear to$4$ advantage. The room they were 
110:089,27['  ]| taken into was the one he chiefly occupied, and looking 
110:089,28['  ]| forwards; behind it was another with which$6#1$ it immediately 
110:089,29['  ]| communicated; the door between them was open$2$, 
110:089,30['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma passed into it with the housekeeper to$9$ receive 
110:089,31['  ]| her assistance in$4$ the most comfortable manner. She was 
110:089,32['  ]| obliged to$9$ leave$1$ the door ajar as she found it; but she 
110:089,33['  ]| fully intended that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton should close$1$ it. It was not 
110:089,34['  ]| closed however, it still$5$ remained ajar; but by$4$ engaging 
110:089,35['  ]| the housekeeper in$4$ incessant conversation, she hoped to$9$ 
110:089,36['  ]| make$1$ it practicable for$4$ him to$9$ chuse his own$2$ subject$0$ in$4$ 
110:089,37['  ]| the adjoining room. For$4$ ten minutes she could hear 
110:089,38['  ]| nothing but herself. 
110:089,38@a   | It could be protracted no$2$ longer. 
110:090,01@a   | She was then obliged to$9$ be finished and make$1$ her 
110:090,02@a   | appearance. 
110:090,03@a   | The lovers were standing together at one of the windows. 
110:090,04@a   | It had a most favourable aspect; 
110:090,04['  ]| and, for$4$ half a minute$0$, 
110:090,05['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt the glory$0$ of having schemed successfully. But 
110:090,06['  ]| it would not do; he had not come to$4$ the point$0$. He had 
110:090,07['  ]| been most agreeable, most delightful; he had told $EM#M$Harriet 
110:090,08['  ]| that$3$ he had seen them go by$5$, and had purposely followed 
110:090,09['  ]| them; other little gallantries and allusions had been 
110:090,10['  ]| dropt, but nothing serious$2$. 
110:090,11@a   | "Cautious, very cautious," 
110:090,11['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma. 
110:090,11@a   | "he 
110:090,12@a   | advances$1$ inch by$4$ inch, and will$1$ hazard$1$ nothing till he 
110:090,13@a   | believes himself secure$2$." 
110:090,14['  ]| Still$5$, however, though every*thing had not been accomplished 
110:090,15['  ]| by$4$ her ingenious device, she could not but flatter 
110:090,16['  ]| herself that$3$ it had been the occasion$0$ of much present$2$ 
110:090,17['  ]| enjoyment to$4$ both, and must be leading them forward$5$ to$4$ 
110:090,18['  ]| the great event. 
111:091,01['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton must now be left to$4$ himself. It was no$2$ 
111:091,02['  ]| longer in$4$ $EM#A$Emma's power to$9$ superintend his happiness or 
111:091,03['  ]| quicken his measures. The coming of her sister's family 
111:091,04['  ]| was so$5#1$ very near$5$ at hand$0$, that$3$ first in$4$ anticipation and 
111:091,05['  ]| then in$4$ reality, it became henceforth her prime object$0$ of 
111:091,06['  ]| interest$0$; and during the ten days of their stay$0$ at Hartfield 
111:091,07['  ]| it was not to$9$ be expected ~~ she did not herself expect 
111:091,08['  ]| ~~ that$3$ any*thing beyond$4$ occasional, fortuitous assistance 
111:091,09['  ]| could be afforded by$4$ her to$4$ the lovers. 
111:091,09@a   | They might 
111:091,10@a   | advance$1$ rapidly if they would, however; they must 
111:091,11@a   | advance$1$ somehow or other whether they would or no$2$. 
111:091,12@a   | She hardly wished to$9$ have more leisure for$4$ them. There 
111:091,13@a   | are people, who$6#1$ the more you do for$4$ them, the less they 
111:091,14@a   | will$1$ do for$4$ themselves. 
111:091,15['  ]| $EM#K$Mr% and $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley, from having been longer 
111:091,16['  ]| than usual absent from Surry, were exciting of course$8$ 
111:091,17['  ]| rather more than the usual interest$0$. Till this year, every 
111:091,18['  ]| long vacation since their marriage had been divided 
111:091,19['  ]| between Hartfield and Donwell*Abbey; but all the 
111:091,20['  ]| holidays of this autumn had been given to$4$ sea-bathing 
111:091,21['  ]| for$4$ the children, and it was therefore many months since 
111:091,22['  ]| they had been seen in$4$ a regular way by$4$ their Surry 
111:091,23['  ]| connections, or seen at all by$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ could 
111:091,24['  ]| not be induced to$9$ get so$5#1$ far as London, even$5$ for$4$ poor 
111:091,25['  ]| $EM#L$Isabella's sake; and who$6#1$ consequently was now most 
111:091,26['  ]| nervously and apprehensively happy in$4$ forestalling this 
111:091,27['  ]| too$5#1$ short visit$0$. 
111:091,28['  ]| He thought$1$ much of the evils of the journey for$4$ her, 
111:091,29['  ]| and not a little of the fatigues$0$ of his own$2$ horses and 
111:091,30['  ]| coachman who$6#1$ were to$9$ bring some of the party the last$2$ 
111:091,31['  ]| half of the way; but his alarms were needless; the 
111:091,32['  ]| sixteen miles being$1$ happily accomplished, and $EM#K$Mr% and 
111:091,33['  ]| $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley, their five children, and a competent 
111:092,01['  ]| number of nursery-maids, all reaching Hartfield in$4$ safety. 
111:092,02['  ]| The bustle$0$ and joy of such an arrival, the many to$9$ be 
111:092,03['  ]| talked to$5$, welcomed, encouraged, and variously dispersed 
111:092,04['  ]| and disposed of, produced a noise and confusion which$6#1$ 
111:092,05['  ]| his nerves could not have born$1#2$ under any other cause, nor 
111:092,06['  ]| have endured much longer even$5$ for$4$ this; but the ways of 
111:092,07['  ]| Hartfield and the feelings of her father were so$5#1$ respected 
111:092,08['  ]| by$4$ $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley, that$3$ in$4$ spite$8$ of maternal solicitude 
111:092,09['  ]| for$4$ the immediate enjoyment of her little ones, and 
111:092,10['  ]| for$4$ their having instantly all the liberty and attendance, 
111:092,11['  ]| all the eating and drinking, and sleeping and playing, 
111:092,12['  ]| which$6#1$ they could possibly wish$1$ for$4$, without the smallest 
111:092,13['  ]| delay$0$, the children were never allowed to$9$ be long a disturbance 
111:092,14['  ]| to$4$ him, either in$4$ themselves or in$4$ any restless 
111:092,15['  ]| attendance on$4$ them. 
111:092,16['  ]| $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley was a pretty$2$, elegant little woman, 
111:092,17['  ]| of gentle, quiet$2$ manners, and a disposition remarkably 
111:092,18['  ]| amiable and affectionate; wrapt up$5$ in$4$ her family; 
111:092,19['  ]| a devoted wife, a doating mother, and so$5#1$ tenderly attached 
111:092,20['  ]| to$4$ her father and sister that$3$, but for$4$ these higher ties, 
111:092,21['  ]| a warmer love$0$ might have seemed impossible. She could 
111:092,22['  ]| never see a fault in$4$ any of them. She was not a woman 
111:092,23['  ]| of strong understanding or any quickness; and with 
111:092,24['  ]| this resemblance of her father, she inherited also much of 
111:092,25['  ]| his constitution; was delicate in$4$ her own$2$ health, over-careful 
111:092,26['  ]| of that$6#2$ of her children, had many fears and many 
111:092,27['  ]| nerves, and was as fond of her own$2$ $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield in$4$ town 
111:092,28['  ]| as her father could be of $EM#W$Mr%*Perry. They were alike too$5#2$, 
111:092,29['  ]| in$4$ a general$2$ benevolence of temper, and a strong habit of 
111:092,30['  ]| regard$0$ for$4$ every old acquaintance. 
111:092,31['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley was a tall, gentleman-like, and very 
111:092,32['  ]| clever man; rising in$4$ his profession$0#2$, domestic$2$, and 
111:092,33['  ]| respectable in$4$ his private$2$ character; but with reserved 
111:092,34['  ]| manners which$6#1$ prevented his being$1$ generally pleasing; 
111:092,35['  ]| and capable of being$1$ sometimes out$5$ of humour. He was 
111:092,36['  ]| not an ill-tempered man, not so$5#1$ often unreasonably cross$2$ 
111:092,37['  ]| as to$9$ deserve such a reproach$0$; but his temper was not 
111:092,38['  ]| his great perfection; and, indeed, with such a worshipping 
111:093,01['  ]| wife, it was hardly possible that$3$ any natural$2$ defects in$4$ 
111:093,02['  ]| it should not be increased. The extreme$2$ sweetness of her 
111:093,03['  ]| temper must hurt his. He had all the clearness and quickness 
111:093,04['  ]| of mind$0$ which$6#1$ she wanted, and he could sometimes 
111:093,05['  ]| act$1$ an ungracious, or say a severe thing. He was not 
111:093,06['  ]| a great favourite$0$ with his fair sister-in-law. Nothing 
111:093,07['  ]| wrong in$4$ him escaped her. She was quick$2$ in$4$ feeling the 
111:093,08['  ]| little injuries to$4$ $EM#L$Isabella, which$6#1$ $EM#L$Isabella never felt herself. 
111:093,09['  ]| Perhaps she might have passed over more had his manners 
111:093,10['  ]| been flattering to$4$ $EM#L$Isabella's sister, but they were only those 
111:093,11['  ]| of a calmly kind$2$ brother and friend, without praise$0$ and 
111:093,12['  ]| without blindness; but hardly any degree of personal 
111:093,13['  ]| compliment$0$ could have made her regardless of that$6#2$ 
111:093,14['  ]| greatest fault of all in$4$ her eyes which$6#1$ he sometimes fell 
111:093,15['  ]| into, the want$0$ of respectful forbearance towards her 
111:093,16['  ]| father. There he had not always the patience that$6#1$ could 
111:093,17['  ]| have been wished. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's peculiarities and 
111:093,18['  ]| fidgettiness were sometimes provoking him to$4$ a rational 
111:093,19['  ]| remonstrance or sharp retort equally ill bestowed. It did 
111:093,20['  ]| not often happen; for$3$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley had really 
111:093,21['  ]| a great regard$0$ for$4$ his father-in-law, and generally a strong 
111:093,22['  ]| sense of what was due$2$ to$4$ him; but it was too$5#1$ often for$4$ 
111:093,23['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's charity, especially as there was all the pain$0$ of 
111:093,24['  ]| apprehension frequently to$9$ be endured, though the 
111:093,25['  ]| offence came not. The beginning, however, of every visit$0$ 
111:093,26['  ]| displayed none but the properest feelings, and this being$1$ 
111:093,27['  ]| of necessity so$5#1$ short might be hoped to$9$ pass$1$ away in$4$ 
111:093,28['  ]| unsullied cordiality. They had not been long seated and 
111:093,29['  ]| composed when $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, with a melancholy$2$ shake$0$ 
111:093,30['  ]| of the head$0$ and a sigh$0$, called his daughter's attention 
111:093,31['  ]| to$4$ the sad change$0$ at Hartfield since she had been there 
111:093,32['  ]| last$2$. 
111:093,33[P  ]| "Ah! my dear$2#1$," 
111:093,33['  ]| said he, 
111:093,33[P  ]| "poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor ~~ It is 
111:093,34[P  ]| a grievous business!" 
111:093,35[L  ]| "Oh! yes, sir," 
111:093,35['  ]| cried she with ready sympathy, 
111:093,35[L  ]| "how 
111:093,36[L  ]| you must miss her! And dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma too$5#2$! ~~ what 
111:093,37[L  ]| a dreadful loss to$4$ you both! ~~ I have been so$5#1$ grieved for$4$ 
111:093,38[L  ]| you. ~~ I could not imagine how you could possibly do 
111:094,01[L  ]| without her. ~~ It is a sad change$0$ indeed. ~~ But I hope$1$ she 
111:094,02[L  ]| is pretty$5$ well$5$, sir." 
111:094,03[P  ]| "Pretty$5$ well$5$, my dear$2#1$ ~~ I hope$1$ ~~ pretty$5$ well$5$. ~~ I do 
111:094,04[P  ]| not know but that$3$ the place$0$ agrees with her tolerably." 
111:094,05['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley here asked $EM#A$Emma quietly whether 
111:094,06['  ]| there were any doubts$0$ of the air of Randalls. 
111:094,07[A  ]| "Oh! no$7$ ~~ none in$4$ the least. I never saw $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
111:094,08[A  ]| better in$4$ my life ~~ never looking so$5#1$ well$5$. Papa is only 
111:094,09[A  ]| speaking his own$2$ regret$0$." 
111:094,10[K  ]| "Very much to$4$ the honour$0$ of both," 
111:094,10['  ]| was the handsome 
111:094,11['  ]| reply$0$. 
111:094,12[L  ]| "And do you see her, sir, tolerably often?" 
111:094,12['  ]| asked 
111:094,13['  ]| $EM#L$Isabella in$4$ the plaintive tone which$6#1$ just$5$ suited her father. 
111:094,14['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse hesitated. ~~ 
111:094,14[P  ]| "Not near$5$ so$5#1$ often, my 
111:094,15[P  ]| dear$2#1$, as I could wish$1$." 
111:094,16[A  ]| "Oh! papa, we have missed seeing them but one 
111:094,17[A  ]| entire day since they married. Either in$4$ the morning or 
111:094,18[A  ]| evening of every day, excepting one, have we seen either 
111:094,19[A  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston or $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, and generally both, either 
111:094,20[A  ]| at Randalls or here ~~ and as you may$1$ suppose, $EM#L$Isabella, 
111:094,21[A  ]| most frequently here. They are very, very kind$2$ in$4$ their 
111:094,22[A  ]| visits. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston is really as kind$2$ as herself. Papa, if 
111:094,23[A  ]| you speak in$4$ that$6#2$ melancholy$2$ way, you will$1$ be giving 
111:094,24[A  ]| $EM#L$Isabella a false idea of us all. Every*body must be aware 
111:094,25[A  ]| that$3$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor must be missed, but every*body ought 
111:094,26[A  ]| also to$9$ be assured that$3$ $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston do really 
111:094,27[A  ]| prevent our missing her by$4$ any means$0$ to$4$ the extent we 
111:094,28[A  ]| ourselves anticipated ~~ which$6#1$ is the exact$2$ truth." 
111:094,29[K  ]| "Just$5$ as it should be," 
111:094,29['  ]| said $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley, 
111:094,29[K  ]| "and 
111:094,30[K  ]| just$5$ as I hoped it was from your letters. Her wish$0$ of 
111:094,31[K  ]| shewing you attention could not be doubted, and his 
111:094,32[K  ]| being$1$ a disengaged and social man makes it all easy. I 
111:094,33[K  ]| have been always telling you, my love$0$, that$3$ I had no$2$ idea 
111:094,34[K  ]| of the change$0$ being$1$ so$5#1$ very material$2$ to$4$ Hartfield as you 
111:094,35[K  ]| apprehended; and now you have $EM#A$Emma's account$0$, I hope$1$ 
111:094,36[K  ]| you will$1$ be satisfied." 
111:094,37[P  ]| "Why to$9$ be sure," 
111:094,37['  ]| said $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse ~~ 
111:094,37[P  ]| "yes, certainly ~~ 
111:094,38[P  ]| I cannot deny that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, poor $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
111:095,01[P  ]| does come and see us pretty$5$ often ~~ but then ~~ she is 
111:095,02[P  ]| always obliged to$9$ go away again." 
111:095,03[A  ]| "It would be very hard upon$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston if she did not, 
111:095,04[A  ]| papa. ~~ You quite forget poor $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
111:095,05[K  ]| "I think, indeed," 
111:095,05['  ]| said $EM#K$John*Knightley pleasantly, 
111:095,06[K  ]| "that$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston has some little claim$0$. You and I, 
111:095,07[K  ]| $EM#A$Emma, will$1$ venture to$9$ take the part$0$ of the poor husband. 
111:095,08[K  ]| I, being$1$ a husband, and you not being$1$ a wife, the claims 
111:095,09[K  ]| of the man may$1$ very likely strike us with equal$2$ force$0$. As 
111:095,10[K  ]| for$4$ $EM#L$Isabella, she has been married along$5$ enough to$9$ see the 
111:095,11[K  ]| convenience of putting all the $EM#N$Mr%*Westons aside as much 
111:095,12[K  ]| as she can." 
111:095,13[L  ]| "Me, my love$0$," 
111:095,13['  ]| cried his wife, hearing and understanding 
111:095,14['  ]| only in$4$ part$0$. ~~ 
111:095,14[L  ]| "Are you talking about$4$ me? ~~ I am 
111:095,15[L  ]| sure nobody ought to$9$ be, or can be, a greater advocate 
111:095,16[L  ]| for$4$ matrimony than I am; and if it had not been for$4$ the 
111:095,17[L  ]| misery of her leaving Hartfield, I should never have 
111:095,18[L  ]| thought$1$ of $EM#O$Miss*Taylor but as the most fortunate woman in$4$ 
111:095,19[L  ]| the world; and as to$4$ slighting $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, that$6#2$ excellent 
111:095,20[L  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, I think there is nothing he does not deserve. 
111:095,21[L  ]| I believe he is one of the very best tempered men that$6#1$ 
111:095,22[L  ]| ever existed. Excepting yourself and your brother, I do 
111:095,23[L  ]| not know his equal$0$ for$4$ temper. I shall never forget his 
111:095,24[L  ]| flying $EM#L1$Henry's kite for$4$ him that$6#2$ very windy day last$2$ 
111:095,25[L  ]| Easter ~~ and ever since his particular kindness last$2$ 
111:095,26[L  ]| September twelvemonth in$4$ writing that$6#2$ note$0$, at twelve 
111:095,27[L  ]| o'clock at night, on$4$ purpose to$9$ assure me that$3$ there was 
111:095,28[L  ]| no$2$ scarlet fever at Cobham, I have been convinced there 
111:095,29[L  ]| could not be a more feeling heart nor a better man in$4$ 
111:095,30[L  ]| existence. ~~ If any*body can deserve him, it must be 
111:095,31[L  ]| $EM#O$Miss*Taylor." 
111:095,32[K  ]| "Where is the young man?" 
111:095,32['  ]| said $EM#K$John*Knightley. 
111:095,33[K  ]| "Has he been here on$4$ this occasion$0$ ~~ or has he not?" 
111:095,34[A  ]| "He has not been here yet," 
111:095,34['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma. 
111:095,34[A  ]| "There 
111:095,35[A  ]| was a strong expectation of his coming soon after$4$ the 
111:095,36[A  ]| marriage, but it ended in$4$ nothing; and I have not heard 
111:095,37[A  ]| him mentioned lately." 
111:095,38[P  ]| "But you should tell them of the letter, my dear$2#1$," 
111:095,38['  ]| said 
111:096,01['  ]| her father. 
111:096,01[P  ]| "He wrote a letter to$4$ poor $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, to$9$ 
111:096,02[P  ]| congratulate her, and a very proper, handsome letter it 
111:096,03[P  ]| was. She shewed it to$4$ me. I thought$1$ it very well$5$ done of 
111:096,04[P  ]| him indeed. Whether it was his own$2$ idea you know, one 
111:096,05[P  ]| cannot tell. He is but young, and his uncle perhaps ~~" 
111:096,06[A  ]| "My dear$2#1$ papa, he is three-and-twenty. ~~ You forget 
111:096,07[A  ]| how time passes." 
111:096,08[P  ]| "Three-and-twenty! ~~ is he indeed? ~~ Well$7$, I could 
111:096,09[P  ]| not have thought$1$ it ~~ and he was but two years old when 
111:096,10[P  ]| he lost his poor mother! Well$7$, time does fly$1$ indeed! ~~ 
111:096,11[P  ]| and my memory is very bad. However, it was an exceedingly 
111:096,12[P  ]| good, pretty$2$ letter, and gave $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
111:096,13[P  ]| a great deal$0$ of pleasure. I remember it was written from 
111:096,14[P  ]| Weymouth, and dated Sept% 28th ~~ and began, 
111:096,14@e   | ""My dear$2#1$ 
111:096,15@e   | Madam,"" 
111:096,15[P  ]| but I forget how it went on$5$; and it was signed 
111:096,16@e   | ""$EM#E$F%*C%*Weston*Churchill."" ~~ 
111:096,16[P  ]| I remember that$6#2$ perfectly." 
111:096,17[L  ]| "How very pleasing and proper of him!" 
111:096,17['  ]| cried the 
111:096,18['  ]| good-hearted $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley. 
111:096,18[L  ]| "I have no$2$ doubt$0$ 
111:096,19[L  ]| of his being$1$ a most amiable young man. But how sad 
111:096,20[L  ]| it is that$3$ he should not live at home with his father! 
111:096,21[L  ]| There is something so$5#1$ shocking in$4$ a child's being$1$ taken 
111:096,22[L  ]| away from his parents and natural$2$ home! I never can 
111:096,23[L  ]| comprehend how $EM#N$Mr%*Weston could part$1$ with him. To$9$ 
111:096,24[L  ]| give up$5$ one's child! I really never could think well$5$ of 
111:096,25[L  ]| any*body who$6#1$ proposed such a thing to$4$ any*body else." 
111:096,26[K  ]| "Nobody ever did think well$5$ of the $EM#W$Churchills, I fancy$1$," 
111:096,27['  ]| observed $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley coolly. 
111:096,27[K  ]| "But you need$1$ 
111:096,28[K  ]| not imagine $EM#N$Mr%*Weston to$9$ have felt what you would feel 
111:096,29[K  ]| in$4$ giving up$5$ $EM#L1$Henry or $EM#L2$John. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston is rather an 
111:096,30[K  ]| easy, cheerful tempered man, than a man of strong 
111:096,31[K  ]| feelings; he takes things as he finds them, and makes 
111:096,32[K  ]| enjoyment of them somehow or other, depending, I 
111:096,33[K  ]| suspect, much more upon$4$ what is called \society\ for$4$ his 
111:096,34[K  ]| comforts, that$6#2$ is, upon$4$ the power of eating and drinking, 
111:096,35[K  ]| and playing whist with his neighbours five times a-week, 
111:096,36[K  ]| than upon$4$ family affection, or any*thing that$6#1$ home 
111:096,37[K  ]| affords." 
111:096,38['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not like$1$ what bordered on$5$ a reflection on$4$ 
111:097,01['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, and had half a mind$0$ to$9$ take it up$5$; but she 
111:097,02['  ]| struggled, and let it pass$1$. 
111:097,02@a   | She would keep the peace if 
111:097,03@a   | possible; and there was something honourable and 
111:097,04@a   | valuable in$4$ the strong domestic$2$ habits, the all-sufficiency 
111:097,05@a   | of home to$4$ himself, whence resulted her brother's disposition 
111:097,06@a   | to$9$ look$1$ down$5$ on$4$ the common$2$ rate$0$ of social intercourse, 
111:097,07@a   | and those to$4$ whom$6#1$ it was important. ~~ It had 
111:097,08@a   | a high claim$0$ to$4$ forbearance. 
112:098,01['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was to$9$ dine with them ~~ rather against 
112:098,02['  ]| the inclination of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ did not like$1$ that$3$ 
112:098,03['  ]| any*one should share$1$ with him in$4$ $EM#L$Isabella's first day. 
112:098,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's sense of right$0$ however had decided it; and 
112:098,05['  ]| besides the consideration of what was due$2$ to$4$ each brother, 
112:098,06['  ]| she had particular pleasure, from the circumstance of the 
112:098,07['  ]| late disagreement between $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and herself, in$4$ 
112:098,08['  ]| procuring him the proper invitation. 
112:098,09@a   | She hoped they might now become friends again. She 
112:098,10@a   | thought$1$ it was time to$9$ make$1$ up$5$. Making-up indeed would 
112:098,11@a   | not do. \She\ certainly had not been in$4$ the wrong, and \he\ 
112:098,12@a   | would never own$1$ that$3$ he had. Concession must be out$5$ 
112:098,13@a   | of the question$0$; but it was time to$9$ appear to$9$ forget that$3$ 
112:098,14@a   | they had ever quarrelled; and she hoped it might rather 
112:098,15@a   | assist the restoration of friendship, that$3$ when he came into 
112:098,16@a   | the room she had one of the children with her ~~ 
112:098,16['  ]| the 
112:098,17['  ]| youngest, a nice little girl about$4$ eight months old, who$6#1$ 
112:098,18['  ]| was now making her first visit$0$ to$4$ Hartfield, and very 
112:098,19['  ]| happy to$9$ be danced about$5$ in$4$ her aunt's arms. 
112:098,19@a   | It did 
112:098,20@a   | assist; for$3$ though he began with grave$2$ looks$0$ and short 
112:098,21@a   | questions, he was soon led on$5$ to$9$ talk$1$ of them all in$4$ the 
112:098,22@a   | usual way, and to$9$ take the child out$5$ of her arms with all 
112:098,23@a   | the unceremoniousness of perfect$2$ amity. 
112:098,23['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt they 
112:098,24['  ]| were friends again; and the conviction giving her at first 
112:098,25['  ]| great satisfaction, and then a little sauciness, she could 
112:098,26['  ]| not help$1$ saying, as he was admiring the baby, 
112:098,27[A  ]| "What a comfort$0$ it is, that$3$ we think alike about$4$ our 
112:098,28[A  ]| nephews and nieces. As to$4$ men and women, our opinions 
112:098,29[A  ]| are sometimes very different; but with regard$0$ to$4$ these 
112:098,30[A  ]| children, I observe we never disagree." 
112:098,31[B  ]| "If you were as much guided by$4$ nature in$4$ your estimate$0$ 
112:098,32[B  ]| of men and women, and as little under the power of fancy$0$ 
112:099,01[B  ]| and whim in$4$ your dealings with them, as you are where 
112:099,02[B  ]| these children are concerned, we might always think 
112:099,03[B  ]| alike." 
112:099,04[A  ]| "To$9$ be sure ~~ our discordancies must always arise 
112:099,05[A  ]| from my being$1$ in$4$ the wrong." 
112:099,06[B  ]| "Yes," 
112:099,06['  ]| said he, smiling ~~ 
112:099,06[B  ]| "and reason$0$ good. I was 
112:099,07[B  ]| sixteen years old when you were born$1#1$." 
112:099,08[A  ]| "A material$2$ difference then," 
112:099,08['  ]| she replied ~~ 
112:099,08[A  ]| "and no$2$ 
112:099,09[A  ]| doubt$0$ you were much my superior in$4$ judgment at that$6#2$ 
112:099,10[A  ]| period of our lives$0$; but does not the lapse of one-and-twenty 
112:099,11[A  ]| years bring our understandings a good deal$0$ 
112:099,12[A  ]| nearer?" 
112:099,13[B  ]| "Yes ~~ a good deal$0$ \nearer\." 
112:099,14[A  ]| "But still$5$, not near$5$ enough to$9$ give me a chance$0$ of 
112:099,15[A  ]| being$1$ right$2#1$, if we think differently." 
112:099,16[B  ]| "I have still$5$ the advantage of you by$4$ sixteen years' 
112:099,17[B  ]| experience$0$, and by$4$ not being$1$ a pretty$2$ young woman and 
112:099,18[B  ]| a spoiled child. Come, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, let us be friends 
112:099,19[B  ]| and say no$2$ more about$4$ it. Tell your aunt, little $EM#L5$Emma, 
112:099,20[B  ]| that$3$ she ought to$9$ set$1$ you a better example than to$9$ be 
112:099,21[B  ]| renewing old grievances, and that$3$ if she were not wrong 
112:099,22[B  ]| before$5$, she is now." 
112:099,23[A  ]| "That's true," 
112:099,23['  ]| she cried ~~ 
112:099,23[A  ]| "very true. Little $EM#L5$Emma, 
112:099,24[A  ]| grow up$5$ a better woman than your aunt. Be infinitely 
112:099,25[A  ]| cleverer and not half so$5#1$ conceited. Now, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
112:099,26[A  ]| a word or two more, and I have done. As far as good 
112:099,27[A  ]| intentions went, we were \both\ right$2#1$, and I must say that$3$ 
112:099,28[A  ]| no$2$ effects on$4$ my side$0$ of the argument have yet proved 
112:099,29[A  ]| wrong. I only want$1$ to$9$ know that$3$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin is not very, 
112:099,30[A  ]| very bitterly disappointed." 
112:099,31[B  ]| "A man cannot be more so$5#2$," 
112:099,31['  ]| was his short, full answer$0$. 
112:099,32[A  ]| "Ah! ~~ Indeed I am very sorry. ~~ Come, shake$1$ hands 
112:099,33[A  ]| with me." 
112:099,34['  ]| This had just$5$ taken place$0$ and with great cordiality, 
112:099,35['  ]| when $EM#K$John*Knightley made his appearance, and 
112:099,35[K  ]| "How 
112:099,36[K  ]| d'ye do, $EM#B$George?" 
112:099,36['  ]| and 
112:099,36[B  ]| "$EM#K$John, how are you?" 
112:099,36['  ]| succeeded 
112:099,37['  ]| in$4$ the true English style, burying under a calmness 
112:099,38['  ]| that$6#1$ seemed all but indifference, the real attachment 
112:100,01['  ]| which$6#1$ would have led either of them, if requisite, to$9$ do 
112:100,02['  ]| every*thing for$4$ the good of the other. 
112:100,03['  ]| The evening was quiet$2$ and conversible, as $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
112:100,04['  ]| declined cards entirely for$4$ the sake of comfortable 
112:100,05['  ]| talk$0$ with his dear$2#1$ $EM#L$Isabella, and the little party made two 
112:100,06['  ]| natural$2$ divisions; on$4$ one side$0$ he and his daughter; on$4$ 
112:100,07['  ]| the other the two $EM#B1$Mr%*Knightleys; their subjects totally 
112:100,08['  ]| distinct, or very rarely mixing ~~ and $EM#A$Emma only occasionally 
112:100,09['  ]| joining in$4$ one or the other. 
112:100,10['  ]| The brothers talked of their own$2$ concerns$0$ and pursuits, 
112:100,11['  ]| but principally of those of the elder, whose$6#1$ temper was 
112:100,12['  ]| by$4$ much the most communicative, and who$6#1$ was always 
112:100,13['  ]| the greater talker. As a magistrate, he had generally 
112:100,14['  ]| some point$0$ of law to$9$ consult $EM#K$John about$4$, or, at least, some 
112:100,15['  ]| curious anecdote to$9$ give; and as a farmer, as keeping in$4$ 
112:100,16['  ]| hand$0$ the home-farm at Donwell, he had to$9$ tell what every 
112:100,17['  ]| field was to$9$ bear$1$ next year, and to$9$ give all such local 
112:100,18['  ]| information as could not fail of being$1$ interesting to$4$ a 
112:100,19['  ]| brother whose$6#1$ home it had equally been the longest part$0$ 
112:100,20['  ]| of his life, and whose$6#1$ attachments were strong. The plan 
112:100,21['  ]| of a drain, the change$0$ of a fence, the felling of a tree, and 
112:100,22['  ]| the destination of every acre for$4$ wheat, turnips, or spring$2$ 
112:100,23['  ]| corn, was entered into with as much equality of interest$0$ 
112:100,24['  ]| by$4$ $EM#K$John, as his cooler manners rendered possible; and 
112:100,25['  ]| if his willing brother ever left him any*thing to$9$ inquire 
112:100,26['  ]| about$4$, his inquiries even$5$ approached a tone of eagerness. 
112:100,27['  ]| While$3$ they were thus comfortably occupied, $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
112:100,28['  ]| was enjoying a full flow$0$ of happy regrets and fearful 
112:100,29['  ]| affection with his daughter. 
112:100,30[P  ]| "My poor dear$2#1$ $EM#L$Isabella," 
112:100,30['  ]| said he, fondly taking her 
112:100,31['  ]| hand$0$, and interrupting, for$4$ a few moments, her busy 
112:100,32['  ]| labours for$4$ some one of her five children ~~ 
112:100,32[P  ]| "How long it 
112:100,33[P  ]| is, how terribly long since you were here! And how tired 
112:100,34[P  ]| you must be after$4$ your journey! You must go to$4$ bed 
112:100,35[P  ]| early, my dear$2#1$ ~~ and I recommend a little gruel to$4$ you 
112:100,36[P  ]| before$3$ you go. ~~ You and I will$1$ have a nice basin of gruel 
112:100,37[P  ]| together. My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, suppose we all have a little 
112:100,38[P  ]| gruel." 
112:101,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not suppose any such thing, knowing, as 
112:101,02['  ]| she did, that$3$ both the $EM#B1$Mr%*Knightleys were as unpersuadable 
112:101,03['  ]| on$4$ that$6#2$ article as herself; ~~ and two basins only were 
112:101,04['  ]| ordered. After$4$ a little more discourse in$4$ praise$0$ of gruel, 
112:101,05['  ]| with some wondering at its not being$1$ taken every evening 
112:101,06['  ]| by$4$ every*body, he proceeded to$9$ say, with an air of grave$2$ 
112:101,07['  ]| reflection, 
112:101,08[P  ]| "It was an awkward business, my dear$2#1$, your spending 
112:101,09[P  ]| the autumn at South*End instead of coming here. I never 
112:101,10[P  ]| had much opinion of the sea air." 
112:101,11[L  ]| "$EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield most strenuously recommended it, 
112:101,12[L  ]| sir ~~ or we should not have gone. He recommended it for$4$ 
112:101,13[L  ]| all the children, but particularly for$4$ the weakness in$4$ little 
112:101,14[L  ]| $EM#L3$Bella's throat, ~~ both sea air and bathing." 
112:101,15[P  ]| "Ah! my dear$2#1$, but $EM#W$Perry had many doubts$0$ about$4$ the 
112:101,16[P  ]| sea doing her any good; and as to$4$ myself, I have been 
112:101,17[P  ]| long perfectly convinced, though perhaps I never told you 
112:101,18[P  ]| so$5#2$ before$5$, that$3$ the sea is very rarely of use$0$ to$4$ any*body. 
112:101,19[P  ]| I am sure it almost killed me once." 
112:101,20[A  ]| "Come, come," 
112:101,20['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, feeling this to$9$ be an 
112:101,21['  ]| unsafe subject$0$, 
112:101,21[A  ]| "I must beg you not to$9$ talk$1$ of the sea. 
112:101,22[A  ]| It makes me envious and miserable; ~~ I who$6#1$ have never 
112:101,23[A  ]| seen it! South*End is prohibited, if you please. My dear$2#1$ 
112:101,24[A  ]| $EM#L$Isabella, I have not heard you make$1$ one inquiry after$4$ 
112:101,25[A  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Perry yet; and he never forgets you." 
112:101,26[L  ]| "Oh! good $EM#W$Mr%*Perry ~~ how is he, sir?" 
112:101,27[P  ]| "Why, pretty$5$ well$5$; but not quite well$5$. Poor $EM#W$Perry 
112:101,28[P  ]| is bilious, and he has not time to$9$ take care$0$ of himself ~~ 
112:101,29[P  ]| he tells me he has not time to$9$ take care$0$ of himself ~~ which$6#1$ 
112:101,30[P  ]| is very sad ~~ but he is always wanted all round$4$ the 
112:101,31[P  ]| country. I suppose there is not a man in$4$ such practice$0$ 
112:101,32[P  ]| any*where. But then, there is not so$5#1$ clever a man any*where." 
112:101,33[P  ]| 
112:101,34[L  ]| "And $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry and the children, how are they? do 
112:101,35[L  ]| the children grow? ~~ I have a great regard$0$ for$4$ $EM#W$Mr%*Perry. 
112:101,36[L  ]| I hope$1$ he will$1$ be calling soon. He will$1$ be so$5#1$ pleased to$9$ 
112:101,37[L  ]| see my little ones." 
112:101,38[P  ]| "I hope$1$ he will$1$ be here to-morrow, for$3$ I have a question$0$ 
112:102,01[P  ]| or two to$9$ ask him about$4$ myself of some consequence. 
112:102,02[P  ]| And, my dear$2#1$, whenever he comes, you had better let him 
112:102,03[P  ]| look$1$ at little $EM#L3$Bella's throat." 
112:102,04[L  ]| "Oh! my dear$2#1$ sir, her throat is so$5#1$ much better that$3$ 
112:102,05[L  ]| I have hardly any uneasiness about$4$ it. Either bathing 
112:102,06[L  ]| has been of the greatest service to$4$ her, or else it is to$9$ be 
112:102,07[L  ]| attributed to$4$ an excellent embrocation of $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield's, 
112:102,08[L  ]| which$6#1$ we have been applying at times ever since 
112:102,09[L  ]| August." 
112:102,10[P  ]| "It is not very likely, my dear$2#1$, that$3$ bathing should 
112:102,11[P  ]| have been of use$0$ to$4$ her ~~ and if I had known you 
112:102,12[P  ]| were wanting an embrocation, I would have spoken 
112:102,13[P  ]| to$4$ ~~" 
112:102,14[A  ]| "You seem to$4$ me to$9$ have forgotten $EM#C$Mrs% and $EM#D$Miss*Bates," 
112:102,15['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
112:102,15[A  ]| "I have not heard one inquiry after$4$ 
112:102,16[A  ]| them." 
112:102,17[L  ]| "Oh! the good $EM#C1$Bateses ~~ I am quite ashamed of myself 
112:102,18[L  ]| ~~ but you mention$1$ them in$4$ most of your letters. I hope$1$ 
112:102,19[L  ]| they are quite well$5$. Good old $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates ~~ I will$1$ call$1$ 
112:102,20[L  ]| upon$4$ her to-morrow, and take my children. ~~ They are 
112:102,21[L  ]| always so$5#1$ pleased to$9$ see my children. ~~ And that$6#2$ excellent 
112:102,22[L  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates! ~~ such thorough worthy people! ~~ How are 
112:102,23[L  ]| they, sir?" 
112:102,24[P  ]| "Why, pretty$5$ well$5$, my dear$2#1$, upon$4$ the whole$0$. But poor 
112:102,25[P  ]| $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates had a bad cold$0$ about$4$ a month ago." 
112:102,26[L  ]| "How sorry I am! But colds were never so$5#1$ prevalent 
112:102,27[L  ]| as they have been this autumn. $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield told me 
112:102,28[L  ]| that$3$ he had never known them more general$2$ or heavy ~~ 
112:102,29[L  ]| except when it has been quite an influenza." 
112:102,30[P  ]| "That$6#2$ has been a good deal$0$ the case, my dear$2#1$; but 
112:102,31[P  ]| not to$4$ the degree you mention$1$. $EM#W$Perry says that$3$ colds 
112:102,32[P  ]| have been very general$2$, but not so$5#1$ heavy as he has very 
112:102,33[P  ]| often known them in$4$ November. $EM#W$Perry does not call$1$ it 
112:102,34[P  ]| altogether a sickly season." 
112:102,35[L  ]| "No$7$, I do not know that$3$ $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield considers it 
112:102,36[L  ]| \very\ sickly except ~~" 
112:102,37[P  ]| "Ah! my poor dear$2#1$ child, the truth is, that$3$ in$4$ London 
112:102,38[P  ]| it is always a sickly season. Nobody is healthy in$4$ London, 
112:103,01[P  ]| nobody can be. It is a dreadful thing to$9$ have you forced 
112:103,02[P  ]| to$9$ live there! ~~ so$5#1$ far off! ~~ and the air so$5#1$ bad!" 
112:103,03[L  ]| "No$7$, indeed ~~ \we\ are not at all in$4$ a bad air. Our part$0$ 
112:103,04[L  ]| of London is so$5#1$ very superior to$4$ most others! ~~ You must 
112:103,05[L  ]| not confound us with London in$4$ general$0$, my dear$2#1$ sir. 
112:103,06[L  ]| The neighbourhood of Brunswick*Square is very different 
112:103,07[L  ]| from almost all the rest$0#1$. We are so$5#1$ very airy! I should be 
112:103,08[L  ]| unwilling, I own$1$, to$9$ live in$4$ any other part$0$ of the town; ~~ 
112:103,09[L  ]| there is hardly any other that$6#1$ I could be satisfied to$9$ 
112:103,10[L  ]| have my children in$5$: ~~ but \we\ are so$5#1$ remarkably airy! ~~ 
112:103,11[L  ]| $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield thinks the vicinity of Brunswick*Square 
112:103,12[L  ]| decidedly the most favourable as to$4$ air." 
112:103,13[P  ]| "Ah! my dear$2#1$, it is not like$4$ Hartfield. You make$1$ 
112:103,14[P  ]| the best of it ~~ but after$3$ you have been a week at Hartfield, 
112:103,15[P  ]| you are all of you different creatures; you do not 
112:103,16[P  ]| look$1$ like$4$ the same. Now I cannot say, that$3$ I think you 
112:103,17[P  ]| are any of you looking well$5$ at present$0#1$." 
112:103,18[L  ]| "I am sorry to$9$ hear you say so$5#2$, sir; but I assure you, 
112:103,19[L  ]| excepting those little nervous head-aches and palpitations 
112:103,20[L  ]| which$6#1$ I am never entirely free from any*where, I am quite 
112:103,21[L  ]| well$5$ myself; and if the children were rather pale before$3$ 
112:103,22[L  ]| they went to$4$ bed, it was only because they were a little 
112:103,23[L  ]| more tired than usual, from their journey and the happiness 
112:103,24[L  ]| of coming. I hope$1$ you will$1$ think better of their looks$0$ 
112:103,25[L  ]| to-morrow; for$3$ I assure you $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield told me, that$3$ 
112:103,26[L  ]| he did not believe he had ever sent us off altogether, in$4$ 
112:103,27[L  ]| such good case. I trust$1$, at least, that$3$ you do not think 
112:103,28[L  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*Knightley looking ill," ~~ 
112:103,28['  ]| turning her eyes with affectionate 
112:103,29['  ]| anxiety towards her husband. 
112:103,30[P  ]| "Middling, my dear$2#1$; I cannot compliment$1$ you. 
112:103,31[P  ]| I think $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley very far from looking well$5$." 
112:103,32[K  ]| "What is the matter, sir? ~~ Did you speak to$4$ me?" 
112:103,33['  ]| cried $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley, hearing his own$2$ name$0$. 
112:103,34[L  ]| "I am sorry to$9$ find, my love$0$, that$3$ my father does not 
112:103,35[L  ]| think you looking well$5$ ~~ but I hope$1$ it is only from being$1$ 
112:103,36[L  ]| a little fatigued. I could have wished, however, as you 
112:103,37[L  ]| know, that$3$ you had seen $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield before$3$ you left 
112:103,38[L  ]| home." 
112:104,01[K  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#L$Isabella," ~~ 
112:104,01['  ]| exclaimed he hastily ~~ 
112:104,01[K  ]| "pray do 
112:104,02[K  ]| not concern$1$ yourself about$4$ my looks$0$. Be satisfied with 
112:104,03[K  ]| doctoring and coddling yourself and the children, and let 
112:104,04[K  ]| me look$1$ as I chuse." 
112:104,05[A  ]| "I do not thoroughly understand what you were telling 
112:104,06[A  ]| your brother," 
112:104,06['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
112:104,06[A  ]| "about$4$ your friend $EM#ZZE$Mr%*Graham's 
112:104,07[A  ]| intending to$9$ have a bailiff from Scotland, to$9$ 
112:104,08[A  ]| look$1$ after$5$ his new estate. But will$1$ it answer$1$? Will$1$ not 
112:104,09[A  ]| the old prejudice be too$5#1$ strong?" 
112:104,10['  ]| And she talked in$4$ this way so$5#1$ long and successfully 
112:104,11['  ]| that$3$, when forced to$9$ give her attention again to$4$ her father 
112:104,12['  ]| and sister, she had nothing worse to$9$ hear than $EM#L$Isabella's 
112:104,13['  ]| kind$2$ inquiry after$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax; ~~ and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, 
112:104,14['  ]| though no$2$ great favourite$0$ with her in$4$ general$0$, she was at 
112:104,15['  ]| that$6#2$ moment very happy to$9$ assist in$4$ praising. 
112:104,16[L  ]| "That$6#2$ sweet, amiable $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax!" 
112:104,16['  ]| said $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley ~~ 
112:104,17[L  ]| "It is so$5#1$ long since I have seen her, except 
112:104,18[L  ]| now and then for$4$ a moment accidentally in$4$ town! What 
112:104,19[L  ]| happiness it must be to$4$ her good old grandmother and 
112:104,20[L  ]| excellent aunt, when she comes to$9$ visit$1$ them! I always 
112:104,21[L  ]| regret$1$ excessively on$4$ dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma's account$0$ that$3$ she cannot 
112:104,22[L  ]| be more at Highbury; but now their daughter is married, 
112:104,23[L  ]| I suppose $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell will$1$ not be able to$9$ 
112:104,24[L  ]| part$1$ with her at all. She would be such a delightful 
112:104,25[L  ]| companion for$4$ $EM#A$Emma." 
112:104,26['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse agreed to$4$ it all, but added, 
112:104,27[P  ]| "Our little friend $EM#M$Harriet*Smith, however, is just$5$ such 
112:104,28[P  ]| another pretty$2$ kind$0$ of young person. You will$1$ like$1$ 
112:104,29[P  ]| $EM#M$Harriet. $EM#A$Emma could not have a better companion than 
112:104,30[P  ]| $EM#M$Harriet." 
112:104,31[L  ]| "I am most happy to$9$ hear it ~~ but only $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
112:104,32[L  ]| one knows to$9$ be so$5#1$ very accomplished and superior! ~~ 
112:104,33[L  ]| and exactly $EM#A$Emma's age." 
112:104,34['  ]| This topic was discussed very happily, and others succeeded 
112:104,35['  ]| of similar moment, and passed away with similar 
112:104,36['  ]| harmony; but the evening did not close$1$ without a little 
112:104,37['  ]| return$0$ of agitation. The gruel came and supplied a great 
112:104,38['  ]| deal$0$ to$9$ be said ~~ much praise$0$ and many comments ~~ 
112:105,01['  ]| undoubting decision of its wholesomeness for$4$ every 
112:105,02['  ]| constitution, and pretty$5$ severe Philippics upon$4$ the many 
112:105,03['  ]| houses where it was never met with tolerable; ~~ but, 
112:105,04['  ]| unfortunately, among the failures which$6#1$ the daughter had 
112:105,05['  ]| to$9$ instance$1$, the most recent, and therefore most prominent, 
112:105,06['  ]| was in$4$ 
112:105,06@l   | her own$2$ cook at South*End, a young woman hired 
112:105,07@l   | for$4$ the time, who$6#1$ never had been able to$9$ understand what 
112:105,08@l   | she meant by$4$ a basin of nice smooth$2$ gruel, thin, but not 
112:105,09@l   | too$5#1$ thin. Often as she had wished for$4$ and ordered it, she 
112:105,10@l   | had never been able to$9$ get any*thing tolerable. 
112:105,10['  ]| Here was 
112:105,11['  ]| a dangerous opening. 
112:105,12[P  ]| "Ah!" 
112:105,12['  ]| said $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, shaking his head$0$ and 
112:105,13['  ]| fixing his eyes on$4$ her with tender$2$ concern$0$. ~~ The ejaculation 
112:105,14['  ]| in$4$ $EM#A$Emma's ear expressed, "Ah! there is no$2$ end$0$ 
112:105,15['  ]| of the sad consequences of your going to$4$ South*End. It 
112:105,16['  ]| does not bear$1$ talking of." And for$4$ a little while$0$ she hoped 
112:105,17['  ]| he would not talk$1$ of it, and that$3$ a silent rumination 
112:105,18['  ]| might suffice to$9$ restore him to$4$ the relish$0$ of his own$2$ smooth$2$ 
112:105,19['  ]| gruel. After$4$ an interval of some minutes, however, he 
112:105,20['  ]| began with, 
112:105,21[P  ]| "I shall always be very sorry that$3$ you went to$4$ the sea 
112:105,22[P  ]| this autumn, instead of coming here." 
112:105,23[L  ]| "But why should you be sorry, sir? ~~ I assure you, it 
112:105,24[L  ]| did the children a great deal$0$ of good." 
112:105,25[P  ]| "And, moreover, if you must go to$4$ the sea, it had better 
112:105,26[P  ]| not have been to$4$ South*End. South*End is an unhealthy 
112:105,27[P  ]| place$0$. $EM#W$Perry was surprized to$9$ hear you had fixed upon$4$ 
112:105,28[P  ]| South*End." 
112:105,29[L  ]| "I know there is such an idea with many people, but 
112:105,30[L  ]| indeed it is quite a mistake$0$, sir. ~~ We all had our health 
112:105,31[L  ]| perfectly well$5$ there, never found the least inconvenience 
112:105,32[L  ]| from the mud; and $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield says it is entirely 
112:105,33[L  ]| a mistake$0$ to$9$ suppose the place$0$ unhealthy; and I am sure 
112:105,34[L  ]| he may$1$ be depended on$5$, for$3$ he thoroughly understands 
112:105,35[L  ]| the nature of the air, and his own$2$ brother and family have 
112:105,36[L  ]| been there repeatedly." 
112:105,37[P  ]| "You should have gone to$4$ Cromer, my dear$2#1$, if you 
112:105,38[P  ]| went any*where. ~~ $EM#W$Perry was a week at Cromer once, and 
112:106,01[P  ]| he holds it to$9$ be the best of all the sea-bathing places$0$. 
112:106,02[P  ]| A fine open$2$ sea, he says, and very pure air. And, by$4$ what 
112:106,03[P  ]| I understand, you might have had lodgings there quite 
112:106,04[P  ]| away from the sea ~~ a quarter$0#1$ of a mile off ~~ very comfortable. 
112:106,05[P  ]| You should have consulted $EM#W$Perry." 
112:106,06[L  ]| "But, my dear$2#1$ sir, the difference of the journey; ~~ only 
112:106,07[L  ]| consider how great it would have been. ~~ A hundred miles, 
112:106,08[L  ]| perhaps, instead of forty." 
112:106,09[P  ]| "Ah! my dear$2#1$," as $EM#W$Perry says, "where health is at 
112:106,10[P  ]| stake$0$, nothing else should be considered;" and if one is 
112:106,11[P  ]| to$9$ travel, there is not much to$9$ chuse between forty miles 
112:106,12[P  ]| and an hundred. ~~ Better not move$1$ at all, better stay$1$ in$4$ 
112:106,13[P  ]| London altogether than travel forty miles to$9$ get into 
112:106,14[P  ]| a worse air. This is just$5$ what $EM#W$Perry said. It seemed to$4$ 
112:106,15[P  ]| him a very ill-judged measure$0$." 
112:106,16['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's attempts to$9$ stop$1$ her father had been vain; 
112:106,17['  ]| and when he had reached such a point$0$ as this, she could 
112:106,18['  ]| not wonder$1$ at her brother-in-law's breaking out$5$. 
112:106,19[K  ]| "$EM#W$Mr%*Perry," 
112:106,19['  ]| said he, in$4$ a voice of very strong displeasure, 
112:106,20[K  ]| "would do as well$5$ to$9$ keep his opinion till it is 
112:106,21[K  ]| asked for$5$. Why does he make$1$ it any business of his, to$9$ 
112:106,22[K  ]| wonder$1$ at what I do? ~~ at my taking my family to$4$ one 
112:106,23[K  ]| part$0$ of the coast or another? ~~ I may$1$ be allowed, I hope$1$, 
112:106,24[K  ]| the use$0$ of my judgment as well$5$ as $EM#W$Mr%*Perry. ~~ I want$1$ his 
112:106,25[K  ]| directions no$2$ more than his drugs." 
112:106,25['  ]| He paused ~~ and 
112:106,26['  ]| growing cooler in$4$ a moment, added, with only sarcastic 
112:106,27['  ]| dryness, 
112:106,27[K  ]| "If $EM#W$Mr%*Perry can tell me how to$9$ convey a wife 
112:106,28[K  ]| and five children a distance$0$ of an hundred and thirty miles 
112:106,29[K  ]| with no$2$ greater expense or inconvenience than a distance$0$ 
112:106,30[K  ]| of forty, I should be as willing to$9$ prefer Cromer to$9$ South*End 
112:106,31[K  ]| as he could himself." 
112:106,32[B  ]| "True, true," 
112:106,32['  ]| cried $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, with most ready 
112:106,33['  ]| interposition ~~ 
112:106,33[B  ]| "very true. That's a consideration indeed. ~~ 
112:106,34[B  ]| But $EM#K$John, as to$4$ what I was telling you of my idea 
112:106,35[B  ]| of moving the path to$4$ Langham, of turning it more to$4$ the 
112:106,36[B  ]| right$2#2$ that$3$ it may$1$ not cut$1$ through$4$ the home meadows, 
112:106,37[B  ]| I cannot conceive any difficulty. I should not attempt$1$ it, 
112:106,38[B  ]| if it were to$9$ be the means$0$ of inconvenience to$4$ the Highbury 
112:107,01[B  ]| people, but if you call$1$ to$4$ mind$0$ exactly the present$2$ line 
112:107,02[B  ]| of the path. ~~~ The only way of proving it, however, will$1$ 
112:107,03[B  ]| be to$9$ turn$1$ to$4$ our maps. I shall see you at the Abbey 
112:107,04[B  ]| to-morrow morning I hope$1$, and then we will$1$ look$1$ them 
112:107,05[B  ]| over, and you shall give me your opinion." 
112:107,06['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was rather agitated by$4$ such harsh 
112:107,07['  ]| reflections on$4$ his friend $EM#W$Perry, to$4$ whom$6#1$ he had, in$4$ fact, 
112:107,08['  ]| though unconsciously, been attributing many of his own$2$ 
112:107,09['  ]| feelings and expressions; ~~ but the soothing attentions 
112:107,10['  ]| of his daughters gradually removed the present$2$ evil, and 
112:107,11['  ]| the immediate alertness of one brother, and better recollections 
112:107,12['  ]| of the other, prevented any renewal of it. 
113:108,01['  ]| There could hardly be an happier creature in$4$ the world, 
113:108,02['  ]| than $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley, in$4$ this short visit$0$ to$4$ Hartfield, 
113:108,03['  ]| going about$5$ every morning among her old acquaintance 
113:108,04['  ]| with her five children, and talking over what she had done 
113:108,05['  ]| every evening with her father and sister. She had nothing 
113:108,06['  ]| to$9$ wish$1$ otherwise, but that$3$ the days did not pass$1$ so$5#1$ swiftly. 
113:108,07['  ]| It was a delightful visit$0$; ~~ perfect$2$, in$4$ being$1$ much too$5#1$ 
113:108,08['  ]| short. 
113:108,09['  ]| In$4$ general$0$ their evenings were less engaged with friends 
113:108,10['  ]| than their mornings: but one complete$2$ dinner engagement, 
113:108,11['  ]| and out$5$ of the house too$5#2$, there was no$2$ avoiding, though 
113:108,12['  ]| at Christmas. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
113:108,12@n   | would take no$2$ denial; they 
113:108,13@n   | must all dine at Randall's one day; ~~ 
113:108,13['  ]| even$5$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
113:108,14['  ]| was persuaded to$9$ think it a possible thing in$4$ preference 
113:108,15['  ]| to$4$ a division of the party. 
113:108,16['  ]| How they were all to$9$ be conveyed, he would have made 
113:108,17['  ]| a difficulty if he could, but as his son and daughter's 
113:108,18['  ]| carriage and horses were actually at Hartfield, he was not 
113:108,19['  ]| able to$9$ make$1$ more than a simple$2$ question$0$ on$4$ that$6#2$ head$0$; 
113:108,20['  ]| it hardly amounted to$4$ a doubt$0$; nor did it occupy $EM#A$Emma 
113:108,21['  ]| long to$9$ convince him that$3$ they might in$4$ one of the 
113:108,22['  ]| carriages find room for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet also. 
113:108,23['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, their own$2$ 
113:108,24['  ]| especial set$0$, were the only persons invited to$9$ meet$1$ them; ~~ 
113:108,25['  ]| the hours were to$9$ be early, as well$5$ as the numbers few; 
113:108,26['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's habits and inclination being$1$ consulted 
113:108,27['  ]| in$4$ every*thing. 
113:108,28['  ]| The evening before$4$ this great event (for$3$ it was a very 
113:108,29['  ]| great event that$3$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse should dine out$5$, on$4$ the 
113:108,30['  ]| 24th of December) had been spent by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet at Hartfield, 
113:108,31['  ]| and she had gone home so$5#1$ much indisposed with a cold$0$, 
113:108,32['  ]| that$3$, but for$4$ her own$2$ earnest wish$0$ of being$1$ nursed by$4$ 
113:108,33['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, $EM#A$Emma could not have allowed her to$9$ leave$1$ 
113:109,01['  ]| the house. $EM#A$Emma called on$4$ her the next day, and found 
113:109,02['  ]| her doom already signed with regard$0$ to$4$ Randalls. She 
113:109,03['  ]| was very feverish and had a bad sore-throat: $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard 
113:109,04['  ]| was full of care$0$ and affection, $EM#W$Mr%*Perry was talked 
113:109,05['  ]| of, and $EM#M$Harriet herself was too$5#1$ ill and low to$9$ resist the 
113:109,06['  ]| authority which$6#1$ excluded her from this delightful engagement, 
113:109,07['  ]| though she could not speak of her loss without 
113:109,08['  ]| many tears. 
113:109,09['  ]| $EM#A$Emma sat with her as long as she could, to$9$ attend her 
113:109,10['  ]| in$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's unavoidable absences, and raise her 
113:109,11['  ]| spirits by$4$ representing how much $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's would be 
113:109,12['  ]| depressed when he knew her state$0$; and left her at last$0$ 
113:109,13['  ]| tolerably comfortable, in$4$ the sweet dependence of his 
113:109,14['  ]| having a most comfortless visit$0$, and of their all missing 
113:109,15['  ]| her very much. She had not advanced many yards from 
113:109,16['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's door, when she was met by$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
113:109,17['  ]| himself, evidently coming towards it, and as they walked 
113:109,18['  ]| on$5$ slowly together in$4$ conversation about$4$ the invalid ~~ of 
113:109,19['  ]| whom$6#1$ he, on$4$ the rumour of considerable illness, had been 
113:109,20['  ]| going to$9$ inquire, that$3$ he might carry some report$0$ of her 
113:109,21['  ]| to$4$ Hartfield ~~ they were overtaken by$4$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley 
113:109,22['  ]| returning from the daily visit$0$ to$4$ Donwell, with his two 
113:109,23['  ]| eldest boys, whose$6#1$ healthy, glowing faces shewed all the 
113:109,24['  ]| benefit of a country run$0$, and seemed to$9$ ensure a quick$2$ 
113:109,25['  ]| dispatch of the roast$0$ mutton and rice pudding they were 
113:109,26['  ]| hastening home for$4$. They joined company and proceeded 
113:109,27['  ]| together. $EM#A$Emma was just$5$ describing the nature of her 
113:109,28['  ]| friend's complaint; ~~ 
113:109,28[A  ]| "a throat very much inflamed, with 
113:109,29[A  ]| a great deal$0$ of heat$0$ about$4$ her, a quick$2$ low pulse, &c% and 
113:109,30[A  ]| she was sorry to$9$ find from $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet 
113:109,31[A  ]| was liable to$4$ very bad sore-throats, and had often alarmed 
113:109,32[A  ]| her with them." ~~ 
113:109,32['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton looked all alarm$0$ on$4$ the 
113:109,33['  ]| occasion$0$, as he exclaimed, 
113:109,34[H  ]| "A sore-throat! ~~ I hope$1$ not infectious. I hope$1$ not 
113:109,35[H  ]| of a putrid infectious sort. Has $EM#W$Perry seen her? Indeed 
113:109,36[H  ]| you should take care$0$ of yourself as well$5$ as of your friend. 
113:109,37[H  ]| Let me entreat you to$9$ run$1$ no$2$ risks. Why does not $EM#W$Perry 
113:109,38[H  ]| see her?" 
113:110,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, who$6#1$ was not really at all frightened herself, 
113:110,02['  ]| tranquillized this excess of apprehension by$4$ assurances of 
113:110,03['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's experience$0$ and care$0$; but as there must 
113:110,04['  ]| still$5$ remain a degree of uneasiness which$6#1$ she could not wish$1$ 
113:110,05['  ]| to$9$ reason$1$ away, which$6#1$ she would rather feed and assist 
113:110,06['  ]| than not, she added soon afterwards ~~ as if quite another 
113:110,07['  ]| subject$0$, 
113:110,08[A  ]| "It is so$5#1$ cold$2$, so$5#1$ very cold$2$ ~~ and looks$1$ and feels so$5#1$ very 
113:110,09[A  ]| much like$4$ snow, that$3$ if it were to$4$ any other place$0$ or with 
113:110,10[A  ]| any other party, I should really try not to$9$ go out$5$ to-day ~~ 
113:110,11[A  ]| and dissuade my father from venturing; but as he has 
113:110,12[A  ]| made up$5$ his mind$0$, and does not seem to$9$ feel the cold$0$ 
113:110,13[A  ]| himself, I do not like$1$ to$9$ interfere, as I know it would be 
113:110,14[A  ]| so$5#1$ great a disappointment to$4$ $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. But 
113:110,15[A  ]| upon$4$ my word, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, in$4$ your case, I should certainly 
113:110,16[A  ]| excuse$1$ myself. You appear to$4$ me a little hoarse already, 
113:110,17[A  ]| and when you consider what demand$0$ of voice and what 
113:110,18[A  ]| fatigues$0$ to-morrow will$1$ bring, I think it would be no$2$ more 
113:110,19[A  ]| than common$2$ prudence to$9$ stay$1$ at home and take care$0$ of 
113:110,20[A  ]| yourself to-night." 
113:110,21['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton looked as if he did not very well$5$ know what 
113:110,22['  ]| answer$0$ to$9$ make$1$; which$6#1$ was exactly the case; for$3$ though 
113:110,23['  ]| very much gratified by$4$ the kind$2$ care$0$ of such a fair lady, 
113:110,24['  ]| and not liking to$9$ resist any advice of her's, he had not 
113:110,25['  ]| really the least inclination to$9$ give up$5$ the visit$0$; ~~ but $EM#A$Emma, 
113:110,26['  ]| too$5#1$ eager and busy in$4$ her own$2$ previous conceptions and 
113:110,27['  ]| views to$9$ hear him impartially, or see him with clear$2$ vision, 
113:110,28['  ]| was very well$5$ satisfied with his muttering acknowledgment 
113:110,29['  ]| of its being$1$ 
113:110,29[H  ]| "very cold$2$, certainly very cold$2$," 
113:110,29['  ]| and walked 
113:110,30['  ]| on$5$, rejoicing in$4$ having extricated him from Randalls, and 
113:110,31['  ]| secured him the power of sending to$9$ inquire after$4$ $EM#M$Harriet 
113:110,32['  ]| every hour of the evening. 
113:110,33[A  ]| "You do quite right$2#1$," 
113:110,33['  ]| said she; ~~ 
113:110,33[A  ]| "We will$1$ make$1$ your 
113:110,34[A  ]| apologies to$4$ $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston." 
113:110,35['  ]| But hardly had she so$5#2$ spoken, when she found her 
113:110,36['  ]| brother was civilly offering a seat in$4$ his carriage, if the 
113:110,37['  ]| weather were $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's only objection, and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
113:110,38['  ]| actually accepting the offer$0$ with much prompt$2$ satisfaction. 
113:111,01@a   | It was a done thing; $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was to$9$ go, and never 
113:111,02@a   | had his broad handsome face$0$ expressed more pleasure than 
113:111,03@a   | at this moment; never had his smile$0$ been stronger, nor 
113:111,04@a   | his eyes more exulting than when he next looked at her. 
113:111,05@a   | "Well$7$," 
113:111,05['  ]| said she to$4$ herself, 
113:111,05@a   | "this is most strange! ~~ 
113:111,06@a   | After$3$ I had got him off so$5#1$ well$5$, to$9$ chuse to$9$ go into company, 
113:111,07@a   | and leave$1$ $EM#M$Harriet ill behind! ~~ Most strange indeed! 
113:111,08@a   | ~~ But there is, I believe, in$4$ many men, especially single 
113:111,09@a   | men, such an inclination ~~ such a passion for$4$ dining out$5$ ~~ 
113:111,10@a   | a dinner engagement is so$5#1$ high in$4$ the class$0$ of their 
113:111,11@a   | pleasures, their employments, their dignities, almost their 
113:111,12@a   | duties, that$3$ any*thing gives way to$4$ it ~~ and this must 
113:111,13@a   | be the case with $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; a most valuable, amiable, 
113:111,14@a   | pleasing young man undoubtedly, and very much in$4$ love$0$ 
113:111,15@a   | with $EM#M$Harriet; but still$5$, he cannot refuse an invitation, he 
113:111,16@a   | must dine out$5$ whenever he is asked. What a strange 
113:111,17@a   | thing love$0$ is! he can see ready wit in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, but will$1$ 
113:111,18@a   | not dine alone for$4$ her." 
113:111,19['  ]| Soon afterwards $EM#H$Mr%*Elton quitted them, and she could 
113:111,20['  ]| not but do him the justice of feeling that$3$ 
113:111,20@a   | there was a great 
113:111,21@a   | deal$0$ of sentiment in$4$ his manner of naming $EM#M$Harriet at 
113:111,22@a   | parting; in$4$ the tone of his voice while$4$ assuring her that$3$ 
113:111,23@a   | he should call$1$ at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's for$4$ news of her fair friend, 
113:111,24@a   | the last$2$ thing before$3$ he prepared for$4$ the happiness of 
113:111,25@a   | meeting her again, when he hoped to$9$ be able to$9$ give a 
113:111,26@a   | better report$0$; and he sighed and smiled himself off in$4$ 
113:111,27@a   | a way that$6#1$ left the balance of approbation much in$4$ his 
113:111,28@a   | favour$0$. 
113:111,29['  ]| After$4$ a few minutes of entire silence$0$ between them, $EM#K$John*Knightley 
113:111,30['  ]| began with ~~ 
113:111,31[K  ]| "I never in$4$ my life saw a man more intent on$4$ being$1$ 
113:111,32[K  ]| agreeable than $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. It is downright labour to$4$ him 
113:111,33[K  ]| where ladies are concerned. With men he can be rational 
113:111,34[K  ]| and unaffected, but when he has ladies to$9$ please every 
113:111,35[K  ]| feature works$1$." 
113:111,36[A  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton's manners are not perfect$2$," 
113:111,36['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma; 
113:111,37[A  ]| "but where there is a wish$0$ to$9$ please, one ought to$9$ overlook, 
113:111,38[A  ]| and one does overlook a great deal$0$. Where a man does 
113:112,01[A  ]| his best with only moderate powers, he will$1$ have the 
113:112,02[A  ]| advantage over negligent superiority.  There is such perfect$2$ 
113:112,03[A  ]| good temper and good*will in$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton as one cannot 
113:112,04[A  ]| but value$1$." 
113:112,05[K  ]| "Yes," 
113:112,05['  ]| said $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley presently, with some 
113:112,06['  ]| slyness, 
113:112,06[K  ]| "he seems to$9$ have a great deal$0$ of good-will 
113:112,07[K  ]| towards \you\." 
113:112,08[A  ]| "Me!" 
113:112,08['  ]| she replied with a smile$0$ of astonishment, 
113:112,08[A  ]| "are 
113:112,09[A  ]| you imagining me to$9$ be $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's object$0$?" 
113:112,10[K  ]| "Such an imagination has crossed me, I own$1$, $EM#A$Emma; 
113:112,11[K  ]| and if it never occurred to$4$ you before$5$, you may$1$ as well$5$ 
113:112,12[K  ]| take it into consideration now." 
113:112,13[A  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton in$4$ love$0$ with me! ~~ What an idea!" 
113:112,14[K  ]| "I do not say it is so$5#2$; but you will$1$ do well$5$ to$9$ consider 
113:112,15[K  ]| whether it is so$5#2$ or not, and to$9$ regulate your behaviour 
113:112,16[K  ]| accordingly. I think your manners to$4$ him encouraging. 
113:112,17[K  ]| I speak as a friend, $EM#A$Emma. You had better look$1$ about$4$ 
113:112,18[K  ]| you, and ascertain what you do, and what you mean$1$ 
113:112,19[K  ]| to$9$ do." 
113:112,20[A  ]| "I thank you; but I assure you you are quite mistaken. 
113:112,21[A  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton and I are very good friends, and nothing more;" 
113:112,22['  ]| and she walked on$5$, 
113:112,22['  ]| amusing herself in$4$ the consideration 
113:112,23['  ]| of 
113:112,23@a   | the blunders which$6#1$ often arise from a partial knowledge 
113:112,24@a   | of circumstances, of the mistakes which$6#1$ people of high 
113:112,25@a   | pretensions to$4$ judgment are for*ever falling into; 
113:112,25['  ]| and not 
113:112,26['  ]| very well$5$ pleased with her brother for$4$ imagining her blind$2$ 
113:112,27['  ]| and ignorant, and in$4$ want$0$ of counsel$0$. He said no$2$ more.
113:112,28['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had so$5#1$ completely made up$5$ his mind$0$ to$4$ 
113:112,29['  ]| the visit$0$, that$3$ in$4$ spite$8$ of the increasing coldness, he 
113:112,30['  ]| seemed to$9$ have no$2$ idea of shrinking from it, and set$1$ 
113:112,31['  ]| forward$5$ at last$2$ most punctually with his eldest daughter 
113:112,32['  ]| in$4$ his own$2$ carriage, with less apparent consciousness of 
113:112,33['  ]| the weather than either of the others; too$5#1$ full of the 
113:112,34['  ]| wonder$0$ of his own$2$ going, and the pleasure it was to$9$ afford 
113:112,35['  ]| at Randalls to$9$ see that$3$ it was cold$2$, and too$5#1$ well$5$ wrapt up$5$ 
113:112,36['  ]| to$9$ feel it. The cold$0$, however, was severe; and by$4$ the 
113:112,37['  ]| time the second$2$ carriage was in$4$ motion, a few flakes of 
113:112,38['  ]| snow were finding their way down$5$, and the sky had the 
113:113,01['  ]| appearance of being$1$ so$5#1$ overcharged as to$9$ want$1$ only 
113:113,02['  ]| a milder air to$9$ produce a very white world in$4$ a very short 
113:113,03['  ]| time. 
113:113,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma soon saw that$3$ her companion was not in$4$ the 
113:113,05['  ]| happiest humour. The preparing and the going abroad 
113:113,06['  ]| in$4$ such weather, with the sacrifice$0$ of his children after$4$ 
113:113,07['  ]| dinner, were evils, were disagreeables at least, which$6#1$ 
113:113,08['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley did not by$4$ any means$0$ like$1$; he 
113:113,09['  ]| anticipated nothing in$4$ the visit$0$ that$6#1$ could be at all worth 
113:113,10['  ]| the purchase$0$; and the whole$0$ of their drive$0$ to$4$ the Vicarage 
113:113,11['  ]| was spent by$4$ him in$4$ expressing his discontent. 
113:113,12[K  ]| "A man," 
113:113,12['  ]| said he, 
113:113,12[K  ]| "must have a very good opinion 
113:113,13[K  ]| of himself when he asks people to$9$ leave$1$ their own$2$ fireside, 
113:113,14[K  ]| and encounter such a day as this, for$4$ the sake of coming 
113:113,15[K  ]| to$9$ see him. He must think himself a most agreeable 
113:113,16[K  ]| fellow; I could not do such a thing. It is the greatest 
113:113,17[K  ]| absurdity ~~ Actually snowing at this moment! ~~ The folly 
113:113,18[K  ]| of not allowing people to$9$ be comfortable at home ~~ and the 
113:113,19[K  ]| folly of people's not staying comfortably at home when 
113:113,20[K  ]| they can! If we were obliged to$9$ go out$5$ such an evening 
113:113,21[K  ]| as this, by$4$ any call$0$ of duty or business, what a hardship 
113:113,22[K  ]| we should deem it; ~~ and here are we, probably with 
113:113,23[K  ]| rather thinner clothing than usual, setting forward$5$ voluntarily, 
113:113,24[K  ]| without excuse$0$, in$4$ defiance of the voice of nature, 
113:113,25[K  ]| which$6#1$ tells man, in$4$ every*thing given to$4$ his view$0$ or his 
113:113,26[K  ]| feelings, to$9$ stay$1$ at home himself, and keep all under 
113:113,27[K  ]| shelter that$6#1$ he can; ~~ here are we setting forward$5$ to$9$ 
113:113,28[K  ]| spend five dull hours in$4$ another man's house, with nothing 
113:113,29[K  ]| to$9$ say or to$9$ hear that$6#1$ was not said and heard yesterday, 
113:113,30[K  ]| and may$1$ not be said and heard again to-morrow. Going 
113:113,31[K  ]| in$4$ dismal weather, to$9$ return$1$ probably in$4$ worse; ~~ four 
113:113,32[K  ]| horses and four servants taken out$5$ for$4$ nothing but to$9$ 
113:113,33[K  ]| convey five idle, shivering creatures into colder rooms and 
113:113,34[K  ]| worse company than they might have had at home." 
113:113,35['  ]| $EM#A$Emma did not find herself equal$2$ to$9$ give the pleased 
113:113,36['  ]| assent, which$6#1$ no$2$ doubt$0$ he was in$4$ the habit of receiving, 
113:113,37['  ]| to$9$ emulate the 
113:113,37@l   | "Very true, my love$0$," 
113:113,37['  ]| which$6#1$ must have 
113:113,38['  ]| been usually administered by$4$ his travelling companion; 
113:114,01['  ]| but she had resolution enough to$9$ refrain from making any 
113:114,02['  ]| answer$0$ at all. She could not be complying, she dreaded 
113:114,03['  ]| being$1$ quarrelsome; her heroism reached only to$4$ silence$0$. 
113:114,04['  ]| She allowed him to$9$ talk$1$, and arranged the glasses, and 
113:114,05['  ]| wrapped herself up$5$, without opening her lips. 
113:114,06['  ]| They arrived, the carriage turned, the step$0$ was let 
113:114,07['  ]| down$5$, and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, spruce, black, and smiling, was with 
113:114,08['  ]| them instantly. $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ with pleasure of some 
113:114,09['  ]| change$0$ of subject$0$. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was all obligation and 
113:114,10['  ]| cheerfulness; he was so$5#1$ very cheerful in$4$ his civilities 
113:114,11['  ]| indeed, that$3$ she began to$9$ think he must have received 
113:114,12['  ]| a different account$0$ of $EM#M$Harriet from what had reached her. 
113:114,13['  ]| She had sent while$4$ dressing, and the answer$0$ had been, 
113:114,14@x   | "Much the same ~~ not better." 
113:114,15[A  ]| "\My\ report$0$ from $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's," 
113:114,15['  ]| said she presently, 
113:114,16[A  ]| "was not so$5#1$ pleasant as I had hoped ~~ 
113:114,16@x   | ""Not better,"" 
113:114,16[A  ]| was 
113:114,17[A  ]| \my\ answer$0$." 
113:114,18['  ]| His face$0$ lengthened immediately; and his voice was 
113:114,19['  ]| the voice of sentiment as he answered. 
113:114,20[H  ]| "Oh! no$7$ ~~ I am grieved to$9$ find ~~ I was on$4$ the point$0$ 
113:114,21[H  ]| of telling you that$3$ when I called at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's door, 
113:114,22[H  ]| which$6#1$ I did the very last$2$ thing before$3$ I returned to$9$ dress$1$, 
113:114,23[H  ]| I was told that$3$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith was not better, by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ 
113:114,24[H  ]| better, rather worse. Very much grieved and concerned ~~ 
113:114,25[H  ]| I had flattered myself that$3$ she must be better after$4$ such 
113:114,26[H  ]| a cordial$0$ as I knew had been given in$4$ the morning." 
113:114,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma smiled and answered ~~ 
113:114,27[A  ]| "My visit$0$ was of use$0$ to$4$ 
113:114,28[A  ]| the nervous part$0$ of her complaint, I hope$1$; but not even$5$ 
113:114,29[A  ]| I can charm$1$ away a sore*throat; it is a most severe cold$0$ 
113:114,30[A  ]| indeed. $EM#W$Mr%*Perry has been with her, as you probably 
113:114,31[A  ]| heard." 
113:114,32[H  ]| "Yes ~~ I imagined ~~ that$6#2$ is ~~ I did not" ~~ 
113:114,33[A  ]| "He has been used to$4$ her in$4$ these complaints, and 
113:114,34[A  ]| I hope$1$ to-morrow morning will$1$ bring us both a more 
113:114,35[A  ]| comfortable report$0$. But it is impossible not to$9$ feel 
113:114,36[A  ]| uneasiness. Such a sad loss to$4$ our party to-day!" 
113:114,37[H  ]| "Dreadful! ~~ Exactly so$5#2$, indeed. ~~ She will$1$ be missed 
113:114,38[H  ]| every moment." 
113:115,01@a   | This was very proper; the sigh$0$ which$6#1$ accompanied it 
113:115,02@a   | was really estimable; but it should have lasted longer. 
113:115,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was rather in$4$ dismay when only half a minute$0$ 
113:115,04['  ]| afterwards he began to$9$ speak of other things, and in$4$ 
113:115,05['  ]| a voice of the greatest alacrity and enjoyment. 
113:115,06[H  ]| "What an excellent device," 
113:115,06['  ]| said he, 
113:115,06[H  ]| "the use$0$ of 
113:115,07[H  ]| a sheep-skin for$4$ carriages. How very comfortable they 
113:115,08[H  ]| make$1$ it; ~~ impossible to$9$ feel cold$2$ with such precautions. 
113:115,09[H  ]| The contrivances of modern days indeed have rendered 
113:115,10[H  ]| a gentleman's carriage perfectly complete$2$. One is so$5#1$ 
113:115,11[H  ]| fenced and guarded from the weather, that$3$ not a breath 
113:115,12[H  ]| of air can find its way unpermitted. Weather becomes 
113:115,13[H  ]| absolutely of no$2$ consequence. It is a very cold$2$ afternoon 
113:115,14[H  ]| ~~ but in$4$ this carriage we know nothing of the matter. ~~ 
113:115,15[H  ]| Ha! snows a little I see." 
113:115,16[K  ]| "Yes," 
113:115,16['  ]| said $EM#K$John*Knightley, 
113:115,16[K  ]| "and I think we shall 
113:115,17[K  ]| have a good deal$0$ of it." 
113:115,18[H  ]| "Christmas weather," 
113:115,18['  ]| observed $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. 
113:115,18[H  ]| "Quite 
113:115,19[H  ]| seasonable; and extremely fortunate we may$1$ think ourselves 
113:115,20[H  ]| that$3$ it did not begin yesterday, and prevent this 
113:115,21[H  ]| day's party, which$6#1$ it might very possibly have done, for$3$ 
113:115,22[H  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse would hardly have ventured had there 
113:115,23[H  ]| been much snow on$4$ the ground; but now it is of no$2$ 
113:115,24[H  ]| consequence. This is quite the season indeed for$4$ friendly 
113:115,25[H  ]| meetings. At Christmas every*body invites their friends 
113:115,26[H  ]| about$4$ them, and people think little of even$5$ the worst 
113:115,27[H  ]| weather. I was snowed up$5$ at a friend's house once for$4$ 
113:115,28[H  ]| a week. Nothing could be pleasanter. I went for$4$ only 
113:115,29[H  ]| one night, and could not get away till that$6#2$ very day 
113:115,30[H  ]| se'nnight." 
113:115,31['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley looked as if he did not comprehend 
113:115,32['  ]| the pleasure, but said only, coolly, 
113:115,33[K  ]| "I cannot wish$1$ to$9$ be snowed up$5$ a week at Randalls." 
113:115,34['  ]| At another time $EM#A$Emma might have been amused, but 
113:115,35['  ]| she was too$5#1$ much astonished now at $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's spirits 
113:115,36['  ]| for$4$ other feelings. 
113:115,36@a   | $EM#M$Harriet seemed quite forgotten in$4$ the 
113:115,37@a   | expectation of a pleasant party. 
113:115,38[H  ]| "We are sure of excellent fires," 
113:115,38['  ]| continued he, 
113:115,38[H  ]| "and 
113:116,01[H  ]| every*thing in$4$ the greatest comfort$0$. Charming people, 
113:116,02[H  ]| $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; ~~ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston indeed is much 
113:116,03[H  ]| beyond$4$ praise$0$, and he is exactly what one values, so$5#1$ 
113:116,04[H  ]| hospitable, and so$5#1$ fond of society; ~~ it will$1$ be a small 
113:116,05[H  ]| party, but where small parties are select, they are perhaps 
113:116,06[H  ]| the most agreeable of any. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's dining-room 
113:116,07[H  ]| does not accommodate more than ten comfortably; and 
113:116,08[H  ]| for$4$ my part$0$, I would rather, under such circumstances, 
113:116,09[H  ]| fall$1$ short by$4$ two than exceed by$4$ two. I think you will$1$ 
113:116,10[H  ]| agree with me, 
113:116,10['  ]| (turning with a soft air to$4$ $EM#A$Emma,) 
113:116,10[H  ]| I think 
113:116,11[H  ]| I shall certainly have your approbation, though $EM#K$Mr%*Knightley 
113:116,12[H  ]| perhaps, from being$1$ used to$4$ the large parties 
113:116,13[H  ]| of London, may$1$ not quite enter into our feelings." 
113:116,14[K  ]| "I know nothing of the large parties of London, sir ~~ 
113:116,15[K  ]| I never dine with any*body." 
113:116,16[H  ]| "Indeed! 
113:116,16['  ]| (in$4$ a tone of wonder$0$ and pity$0$,) 
113:116,16[H  ]| I had no$2$ 
113:116,17[H  ]| idea that$3$ the law had been so$5#1$ great a slavery. Well$7$, sir, 
113:116,18[H  ]| the time must come when you will$1$ be paid for$4$ all this, 
113:116,19[H  ]| when you will$1$ have little labour and great enjoyment." 
113:116,20[K  ]| "My first enjoyment," 
113:116,20['  ]| replied $EM#K$John*Knightley, as they 
113:116,21['  ]| passed through$4$ the sweep-gate, 
113:116,21[K  ]| "will$1$ be to$9$ find myself 
113:116,22[K  ]| safe at Hartfield again." 
114:117,01['  ]| Some change$0$ of countenance was necessary for$4$ each 
114:117,02['  ]| gentleman as they walked into $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's drawing-room; ~~ 
114:117,03['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton must compose his joyous looks$0$, and 
114:117,04['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley disperse his ill-humour. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
114:117,05['  ]| must smile$1$ less, and $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley more, to$9$ fit$1$ them 
114:117,06['  ]| for$4$ the place$0$. ~~ $EM#A$Emma only might be as nature prompted, 
114:117,07['  ]| and shew$1$ herself just$5$ as happy as she was. To$4$ her, it was 
114:117,08['  ]| real enjoyment to$9$ be with the $EM#N1$Westons. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was 
114:117,09['  ]| a great favourite$0$, and there was not a creature in$4$ the 
114:117,10['  ]| world to$4$ whom$6#1$ she spoke with such unreserve, as to$4$ his 
114:117,11['  ]| wife; not any*one, to$4$ whom$6#1$ she related with such conviction 
114:117,12['  ]| of being$1$ listened to$4$ and understood, of being$1$ always 
114:117,13['  ]| interesting and always intelligible, the little affairs, 
114:117,14['  ]| arrangements, perplexities and pleasures of her father and 
114:117,15['  ]| herself. She could tell nothing of Hartfield, in$4$ which$6#1$ 
114:117,16['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had not a lively concern$0$; and half an hour's 
114:117,17['  ]| uninterrupted communication of all those little matters 
114:117,18['  ]| on$4$ which$6#1$ the daily happiness of private$2$ life depends, was 
114:117,19['  ]| one of the first gratifications of each. 
114:117,20['  ]| This was a pleasure which$6#1$ perhaps the whole$2$ day's visit$0$ 
114:117,21['  ]| might not afford, which$6#1$ certainly did not belong to$4$ the 
114:117,22['  ]| present$2$ half hour; but the very sight of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, her 
114:117,23['  ]| smile$0$, her touch$0$, her voice was grateful to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, and she 
114:117,24['  ]| determined to$9$ think as little as possible of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
114:117,25['  ]| oddities, or of any*thing else unpleasant, and enjoy all 
114:117,26['  ]| that$6#1$ was enjoyable to$4$ the utmost. 
114:117,27['  ]| The misfortune of $EM#M$Harriet's cold$0$ had been pretty$5$ well$5$ 
114:117,28['  ]| gone through$5$ before$4$ her arrival. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had been 
114:117,29['  ]| safely seated long enough to$9$ give the history of it, besides 
114:117,30['  ]| all the history of his own$2$ and $EM#L$Isabella's coming, and of 
114:117,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's being$1$ to$9$ follow, and had indeed just$5$ got to$4$ the 
114:117,32['  ]| end$0$ of his satisfaction that$3$ $EM#ZI$James should come and see 
114:117,33['  ]| his daughter, when the others appeared, and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
114:118,01['  ]| who$6#1$ had been almost wholly engrossed by$4$ her attentions 
114:118,02['  ]| to$4$ him, was able to$9$ turn$1$ away and welcome$1$ her dear$2#1$ 
114:118,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma. 
114:118,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's project of forgetting $EM#H$Mr%*Elton for$4$ a while$0$, 
114:118,05['  ]| made her rather sorry to$9$ find, when they had all taken their 
114:118,06['  ]| places$0$, that$3$ he was close$5$ to$4$ her. 
114:118,06@a   | The difficulty was great 
114:118,07@a   | of driving his strange insensibility towards $EM#M$Harriet, from 
114:118,08@a   | her mind$0$, while$3$ he not only sat at her elbow, but was 
114:118,09@a   | continually obtruding his happy countenance on$4$ her 
114:118,10@a   | notice$0$, and solicitously addressing her upon$4$ every occasion$0$. 
114:118,11['  ]| Instead of forgetting him, his behaviour was such 
114:118,12['  ]| that$3$ she could not avoid the internal suggestion of 
114:118,12@a   | "Can 
114:118,13@a   | it really be as my brother imagined? can it be possible 
114:118,14@a   | for$4$ this man to$9$ be beginning to$9$ transfer$1$ his affections from 
114:118,15@a   | $EM#M$Harriet to$4$ me? ~~ Absurd and insufferable!" ~~ Yet he 
114:118,16@a   | would be so$5#1$ anxious for$4$ her being$1$ perfectly warm$2$, would 
114:118,17@a   | be so$5#1$ interested about$4$ her father, and so$5#1$ delighted with 
114:118,18@a   | $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; and at last$0$ would begin admiring her 
114:118,19@a   | drawings with so$5#1$ much zeal and so$5#1$ little knowledge as 
114:118,20@a   | seemed terribly like$4$ a would-be lover, and made it some 
114:118,21@a   | effort with her to$9$ preserve her good manners. 
114:118,21['  ]| For$4$ her 
114:118,22['  ]| own$2$ sake she could not be rude; and for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's, in$4$ the 
114:118,23['  ]| hope$0$ that$3$ all would yet turn$1$ out$5$ right$2#1$, she was even$5$ 
114:118,24['  ]| positively civil; but it was an effort; especially as something 
114:118,25['  ]| was going on$5$ amongst the others, in$4$ the most overpowering 
114:118,26['  ]| period of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's nonsense, which$6#1$ she 
114:118,27['  ]| particularly wished to$9$ listen to$4$. She heard enough to$9$ 
114:118,28['  ]| know that$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was giving some information about$4$ 
114:118,29['  ]| his son; she heard the words 
114:118,29[N  ]| "my son," 
114:118,29['  ]| and 
114:118,29[N  ]| "$EM#E$Frank," 
114:118,30['  ]| and 
114:118,30[N  ]| "my son," 
114:118,30['  ]| repeated several times over; and from 
114:118,31['  ]| a few other half-syllables very much suspected that$3$ he 
114:118,32['  ]| was announcing an early visit$0$ from his son; but before$3$ 
114:118,33['  ]| she could quiet$1$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, the subject$0$ was so$5#1$ completely 
114:118,34['  ]| past$1$ that$3$ any reviving question$0$ from her would have been 
114:118,35['  ]| awkward. 
114:118,36['  ]| Now, it so$5#2$ happened that$3$ in$4$ spite$8$ of $EM#A$Emma's resolution 
114:118,37['  ]| of never marrying, there was something in$4$ the name$0$, in$4$ 
114:118,38['  ]| the idea of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, which$6#1$ always interested 
114:119,01['  ]| her. She had frequently thought$1$ ~~ especially since his 
114:119,02['  ]| father's marriage with $EM#O$Miss*Taylor ~~ that$3$ 
114:119,02@a   | if she \were\ to$9$ 
114:119,03@a   | marry, he was the very person to$9$ suit$1$ her in$4$ age, character 
114:119,04@a   | and condition$0$. He seemed by$4$ this connection between 
114:119,05@a   | the families, quite to$9$ belong to$4$ her. She could not but 
114:119,06@a   | suppose it to$9$ be a match$0$ that$6#1$ every*body who$6#1$ knew them 
114:119,07@a   | must think of. That$3$ $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston did think of it, 
114:119,08['  ]| she was very strongly persuaded; and though not meaning 
114:119,09['  ]| to$9$ be induced by$4$ him, or by$4$ any*body else, to$9$ give up$5$ 
114:119,10['  ]| a situation which$6#1$ she believed more replete with good 
114:119,11['  ]| than any she could change$1$ it for$4$, she had a great curiosity 
114:119,12['  ]| to$9$ see him, a decided intention of finding him pleasant, 
114:119,13['  ]| of being$1$ liked by$4$ him to$4$ a certain degree, and a sort of 
114:119,14['  ]| pleasure in$4$ the idea of their being$1$ coupled in$4$ their friends' 
114:119,15['  ]| imaginations. 
114:119,16['  ]| With such sensations, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's civilities were dreadfully 
114:119,17['  ]| ill-timed; but she had the comfort$0$ of appearing 
114:119,18['  ]| very polite, while$4$ feeling very cross$2$ ~~ and of thinking that$3$ 
114:119,19['  ]| the rest$0#1$ of the visit$0$ could not possibly pass$1$ without bringing 
114:119,20['  ]| forward$5$ the same information again, or the substance 
114:119,21['  ]| of it, from the open-hearted $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. ~~ So$5#2$ it proved; ~~ 
114:119,22['  ]| for$3$ when happily released from $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and seated by$4$ 
114:119,23['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, at dinner, he made use$0$ of the very first 
114:119,24['  ]| interval in$4$ the cares$0$ of hospitality, the very first leisure 
114:119,25['  ]| from the saddle of mutton, to$9$ say to$4$ her, 
114:119,26[N  ]| "We want$1$ only two more to$9$ be just$5$ the right$2#1$ number. 
114:119,27[N  ]| I should like$1$ to$9$ see two more here, ~~ your pretty$2$ little 
114:119,28[N  ]| friend, $EM#M$Miss*Smith, and my son ~~ and then I should say 
114:119,29[N  ]| we were quite complete$2$. I believe you did not hear me 
114:119,30[N  ]| telling the others in$4$ the drawing-room that$3$ we are expecting 
114:119,31[N  ]| $EM#E$Frank? I had a letter from him this morning, and 
114:119,32[N  ]| he will$1$ be with us within a fortnight." 
114:119,33['  ]| $EM#A$Emma spoke with a very proper degree of pleasure; 
114:119,34['  ]| and fully assented to$4$ his proposition of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
114:119,35['  ]| and $EM#M$Miss*Smith making their party quite complete$2$. 
114:119,36[N  ]| "He has been wanting to$9$ come to$4$ us," 
114:119,36['  ]| continued 
114:119,37['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
114:119,37[N  ]| "ever since September: every letter has 
114:119,38[N  ]| been full of it; but he cannot command$1$ his own$2$ time. 
114:120,01[N  ]| He has those to$9$ please who$6#1$ must be pleased, and who$6#1$ 
114:120,02[N  ]| (between ourselves) are sometimes to$9$ be pleased only by$4$ 
114:120,03[N  ]| a good many sacrifices. But now I have no$2$ doubt$0$ of 
114:120,04[N  ]| seeing him here about$4$ the second$2$ week in$4$ January." 
114:120,05[A  ]| "What a very great pleasure it will$1$ be to$4$ you! and 
114:120,06[A  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston is so$5#1$ anxious to$9$ be acquainted with him, that$3$ 
114:120,07[A  ]| she must be almost as happy as yourself." 
114:120,08[N  ]| "Yes, she would be, but that$3$ she thinks there 
114:120,09[N  ]| will$1$ be another put-off. She does not depend upon$4$ his 
114:120,10[N  ]| coming so$5#1$ much as I do: but she does not know the 
114:120,11[N  ]| parties so$5#1$ well$5$ as I do. The case, you see, is ~~(but this is 
114:120,12[N  ]| quite between ourselves: I did not mention$1$ a syllable of 
114:120,13[N  ]| it in$4$ the other room. There are secrets in$4$ all families, you 
114:120,14[N  ]| know) ~~ The case is, that$3$ a party of friends are invited to$9$ 
114:120,15[N  ]| pay$1$ a visit$0$ at Enscombe in$4$ January; and that$3$ $EM#E$Frank's 
114:120,16[N  ]| coming depends upon$4$ their being$1$ put off. If they are not 
114:120,17[N  ]| put off, he cannot stir. But I know they will$1$, because it 
114:120,18[N  ]| is a family that$6#1$ a certain lady, of some consequence, at 
114:120,19[N  ]| Enscombe, has a particular dislike$0$ to$4$: and though it is 
114:120,20[N  ]| thought$1$ necessary to$9$ invite them once in$4$ two or three 
114:120,21[N  ]| years, they always are put off when it comes to$4$ the point$0$. 
114:120,22[N  ]| I have not the smallest doubt$0$ of the issue$0$. I am as 
114:120,23[N  ]| confident of seeing $EM#E$Frank here before$4$ the middle of 
114:120,24[N  ]| January, as I am of being$1$ here myself: but your good 
114:120,25[N  ]| friend there 
114:120,25['  ]| (nodding towards the upper end$0$ of the table) 
114:120,26[N  ]| has so$5#1$ few vagaries herself, and has been so$5#1$ little used to$4$ 
114:120,27[N  ]| them at Hartfield, that$3$ she cannot calculate on$4$ their 
114:120,28[N  ]| effects, as I have been long in$4$ the practice$0$ of doing." 
114:120,29[A  ]| "I am sorry there should be any*thing like$4$ doubt$0$ in$4$ the 
114:120,30[A  ]| case," 
114:120,30['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma; 
114:120,30[A  ]| "but am disposed to$9$ side$1$ with you, 
114:120,31[A  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. If you think he will$1$ come, I shall think so$5#2$ 
114:120,32[A  ]| too$5#2$; for$3$ you know Enscombe." 
114:120,33[N  ]| "Yes ~~ I have some right$0$ to$4$ that$6#2$ knowledge; though 
114:120,34[N  ]| I have never been at the place$0$ in$4$ my life. ~~ She is an odd 
114:120,35[N  ]| woman! ~~ But I never allow myself to$9$ speak ill of her, on$4$ 
114:120,36[N  ]| $EM#E$Frank's account$0$; for$3$ I do believe her to$9$ be very fond of 
114:120,37[N  ]| him. I used to$9$ think she was not capable of being$1$ fond 
114:120,38[N  ]| of any*body, except herself: but she has always been 
114:121,01[N  ]| kind$2$ to$4$ him (in$4$ her way ~~ allowing for$4$ little whims and 
114:121,02[N  ]| caprices, and expecting every*thing to$9$ be as she likes). 
114:121,03[N  ]| And it is no$2$ small credit$0$, in$4$ my opinion, to$4$ him, that$3$ he 
114:121,04[N  ]| should excite such an affection; for$3$, though I would not 
114:121,05[N  ]| say it to$4$ any*body else, she has no$2$ more heart than 
114:121,06[N  ]| a stone to$4$ people in$4$ general$0$; and the devil of a 
114:121,07[N  ]| temper." 
114:121,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma liked the subject$0$ so$5#1$ well$5$, that$3$ she began upon$4$ 
114:121,09['  ]| it, to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, very soon after$4$ their moving into the 
114:121,10['  ]| drawing-room: 
114:121,10@a   | wishing her joy ~~ 
114:121,10['  ]| yet observing, that$3$ 
114:121,10@a   | she 
114:121,11@a   | knew the first meeting must be rather alarming. ~~ 
114:121,11['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
114:121,12['  ]| agreed to$4$ it; but added, that$3$ 
114:121,12@o   | she should be very 
114:121,13@o   | glad to$9$ be secure$2$ of undergoing the anxiety of a first 
114:121,14@o   | meeting at the time talked of: 
114:121,14[O  ]| "for$3$ I cannot depend 
114:121,15[O  ]| upon$4$ his coming. I cannot be so$5#1$ sanguine as $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
114:121,16[O  ]| I am very much afraid that$3$ it will$1$ all end$1$ in$4$ nothing. 
114:121,17[O  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, I dare$1#2$ say, has been telling you exactly how 
114:121,18[O  ]| the matter stands." 
114:121,19[A  ]| "Yes ~~ it seems to$9$ depend upon$4$ nothing but the ill-humour 
114:121,20[A  ]| of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, which$6#1$ I imagine to$9$ be the 
114:121,21[A  ]| most certain thing in$4$ the world." 
114:121,22[O  ]| "My $EM#A$Emma!" 
114:121,22['  ]| replied $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, smiling, 
114:121,22[O  ]| "what 
114:121,23[O  ]| is the certainty of caprice?" 
114:121,23['  ]| Then turning to$4$ $EM#L$Isabella, 
114:121,24['  ]| who$6#1$ had not been attending before$5$ ~~ 
114:121,24[O  ]| "You must know, 
114:121,25[O  ]| my dear$2#1$ $EM#L$Mrs%*Knightley, that$3$ we are by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ so$5#1$ sure 
114:121,26[O  ]| of seeing $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, in$4$ my opinion, as his father 
114:121,27[O  ]| thinks. It depends entirely upon$4$ his aunt's spirits and 
114:121,28[O  ]| pleasure; in$4$ short, upon$4$ her temper. To$4$ you ~~ to$4$ my 
114:121,29[O  ]| two daughters, I may$1$ venture on$4$ the truth. $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill 
114:121,30[O  ]| rules$1$ at Enscombe, and is a very odd-tempered woman; 
114:121,31[O  ]| and his coming now, depends upon$4$ her being$1$ willing to$9$ 
114:121,32[O  ]| spare$1$ him." 
114:121,33[L  ]| "Oh, $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill; every*body knows $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill," 
114:121,34['  ]| replied $EM#L$Isabella: 
114:121,34[L  ]| "and I am sure I never think of that$6#2$ 
114:121,35[L  ]| poor young man without the greatest compassion. To$9$ be 
114:121,36[L  ]| constantly living with an ill-tempered person, must be 
114:121,37[L  ]| dreadful. It is what we happily have never known any*thing 
114:121,38[L  ]| of; but it must be a life of misery. What a blessing, 
114:122,01[L  ]| that$3$ she never had any children! Poor little creatures, 
114:122,02[L  ]| how unhappy she would have made them!" 
114:122,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma wished she had been alone with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
114:122,04@a   | She should then have heard more: $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston would 
114:122,05@a   | speak to$4$ her, with a degree of unreserve which$6#1$ she would 
114:122,06@a   | not hazard$1$ with $EM#L$Isabella; and, she really believed, would 
114:122,07@a   | scarcely try to$9$ conceal any*thing relative to$4$ the $EM#W$Churchills 
114:122,08@a   | from her, excepting those views on$4$ the young man, of 
114:122,09@a   | which$6#1$ her own$2$ imagination had already given her such 
114:122,10@a   | instinctive knowledge. 
114:122,10['  ]| But at present$0#1$ there was nothing 
114:122,11['  ]| more to$9$ be said. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse very soon followed them 
114:122,12['  ]| into the drawing-room. To$9$ be sitting long after$4$ dinner, 
114:122,13['  ]| was a confinement that$6#1$ he could not endure. Neither wine 
114:122,14['  ]| nor conversation was any*thing to$4$ him; and gladly did he 
114:122,15['  ]| move$1$ to$4$ those with whom$6#1$ he was always comfortable. 
114:122,16['  ]| While$3$ he talked to$4$ $EM#L$Isabella, however, $EM#A$Emma found an 
114:122,17['  ]| opportunity of saying, 
114:122,18[A  ]| "And so$3$ you do not consider this visit$0$ from your son 
114:122,19[A  ]| as by$4$ any means$0$ certain. I am sorry for$4$ it. The introduction 
114:122,20[A  ]| must be unpleasant, whenever it takes place$0$; and 
114:122,21[A  ]| the sooner it could be over, the better." 
114:122,22[O  ]| "Yes; and every delay$0$ makes one more apprehensive 
114:122,23[O  ]| of other delays. Even$5$ if this family, the $EM#ZZC$Braithwaites, are 
114:122,24[O  ]| put off, I am still$5$ afraid that$3$ some excuse$0$ may$1$ be found 
114:122,25[O  ]| for$4$ disappointing us. I cannot bear$1$ to$9$ imagine any 
114:122,26[O  ]| reluctance on$4$ his side$0$; but I am sure there is a great wish$0$ 
114:122,27[O  ]| on$4$ the $EM#W$Churchills' to$9$ keep him to$4$ themselves. There is 
114:122,28[O  ]| jealousy. They are jealous even$5$ of his regard$0$ for$4$ his 
114:122,29[O  ]| father. In$4$ short, I can feel no$2$ dependence on$4$ his coming, 
114:122,30[O  ]| and I wish$1$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston were less sanguine." 
114:122,31[A  ]| "He ought to$9$ come," 
114:122,31['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
114:122,31[A  ]| "If he could stay$1$ 
114:122,32[A  ]| only a couple of days, he ought to$9$ come; and one can 
114:122,33[A  ]| hardly conceive a young man's not having it in$4$ his power 
114:122,34[A  ]| to$9$ do as much as that$6#2$. A young \woman\, if she fall$1$ into 
114:122,35[A  ]| bad hands, may$1$ be teazed, and kept at a distance$0$ from 
114:122,36[A  ]| those she wants$1$ to$9$ be with; but one cannot comprehend 
114:122,37[A  ]| a young \man's\ being$1$ under such restraint, as not be to$9$ 
114:122,38[A  ]| able to$9$ spend a week with his father, if he likes it." 
114:123,01[O  ]| "One ought to$9$ be at Enscombe, and know the ways 
114:123,02[O  ]| of the family, before$3$ one decides upon$4$ what he can do," 
114:123,03['  ]| replied $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
114:123,03[O  ]| "One ought to$9$ use$1$ the same caution$0$, 
114:123,04[O  ]| perhaps, in$4$ judging of the conduct$0$ of any one individual 
114:123,05[O  ]| of any one family; but Enscombe, I believe, certainly 
114:123,06[O  ]| must not be judged by$4$ general$2$ rules$0$: \she\ is so$5#1$ very 
114:123,07[O  ]| unreasonable; and every*thing gives way to$4$ her." 
114:123,08[A  ]| "But she is so$5#1$ fond of the nephew: he is so$5#1$ very great 
114:123,09[A  ]| a favourite$0$. Now, according to$4$ my idea of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, 
114:123,10[A  ]| it would be most natural$2$, that$3$ while$3$ she makes no$2$ sacrifice$0$ 
114:123,11[A  ]| for$4$ the comfort$0$ of the husband, to$4$ whom$6#1$ she owes every*thing, 
114:123,12[A  ]| while$3$ she exercises incessant caprice towards \him\, 
114:123,13[A  ]| she should frequently be governed by$4$ the nephew, to$4$ 
114:123,14[A  ]| whom$6#1$ she owes nothing at all." 
114:123,15[O  ]| "My dearest $EM#A$Emma, do not pretend, with your sweet 
114:123,16[O  ]| temper, to$9$ understand a bad one, or to$9$ lay$1#1$ down$5$ rules$0$ for$4$ 
114:123,17[O  ]| it: you must let it go its own$2$ way. I have no$2$ doubt$0$ of 
114:123,18[O  ]| his having, at times, considerable influence$0$; but it may$1$ 
114:123,19[O  ]| be perfectly impossible for$4$ him to$9$ know beforehand \when\ 
114:123,20[O  ]| it will$1$ be." 
114:123,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma listened, and then coolly said, 
114:123,21[A  ]| "I shall not be 
114:123,22[A  ]| satisfied, unless he comes." 
114:123,23[O  ]| "He may$1$ have a great deal$0$ of influence$0$ on$4$ some 
114:123,24[O  ]| points," 
114:123,24['  ]| continued $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
114:123,24[O  ]| "and on$4$ others, very 
114:123,25[O  ]| little: and among those, on$4$ which$6#1$ she is beyond$4$ his reach$0$, 
114:123,26[O  ]| it is but too$5#1$ likely, may$1$ be this very circumstance of his 
114:123,27[O  ]| coming away from them to$9$ visit$1$ us." 
115:124,01['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was soon ready for$4$ his tea; and when 
115:124,02['  ]| he had drank his tea he was quite ready to$9$ go home; 
115:124,03['  ]| and it was as much as his three companions could do, to$9$ 
115:124,04['  ]| entertain away his notice$0$ of the lateness of the hour, before$3$ 
115:124,05['  ]| the other gentlemen appeared. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was chatty 
115:124,06['  ]| and convivial, and no$2$ friend to$4$ early separations of any 
115:124,07['  ]| sort; but at last$0$ the drawing-room party did receive an 
115:124,08['  ]| augmentation. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, in$4$ very good spirits, was one 
115:124,09['  ]| of the first to$9$ walk$1$ in$5$. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and $EM#A$Emma were 
115:124,10['  ]| sitting together on$4$ a sopha. He joined them immediately, 
115:124,11['  ]| and with scarcely an invitation, seated himself between 
115:124,12['  ]| them. 
115:124,13['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ good spirits too$5#2$, from the amusement afforded 
115:124,14['  ]| her mind$0$ by$4$ the expectation of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, was 
115:124,15['  ]| willing to$9$ forget his late improprieties, and be as well$5$ 
115:124,16['  ]| satisfied with him as before$5$, and on$4$ his making $EM#M$Harriet 
115:124,17['  ]| his very first subject$0$, was ready to$9$ listen with most 
115:124,18['  ]| friendly smiles. 
115:124,19['  ]| He professed himself 
115:124,19@h   | extremely anxious about$4$ her fair 
115:124,20@h   | friend ~~ her fair, lovely, amiable friend. 
115:124,20[H  ]| "Did she know? 
115:124,21[H  ]| ~~ had she heard any*thing about$4$ her, since their being$1$ at 
115:124,22[H  ]| Randalls? ~~ he felt much anxiety ~~ he must confess that$3$ 
115:124,23[H  ]| the nature of her complaint alarmed him considerably." 
115:124,24['  ]| And in$4$ this style he talked on$5$ for$4$ some time very properly, 
115:124,25['  ]| not much attending to$4$ any answer$0$, but altogether sufficiently 
115:124,26['  ]| awake$2$ to$4$ the terror of a bad sore*throat; and 
115:124,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was quite in$4$ charity with him. 
115:124,28['  ]| But at last$0$ there seemed a perverse turn$0$; 
115:124,28@a   | it seemed all 
115:124,29@a   | at once as if he were more afraid of its being$1$ a bad sore 
115:124,30@a   | throat on$4$ her account$0$, than on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's ~~ more anxious 
115:124,31@a   | that$3$ she should escape$1$ the infection, than that$3$ there should 
115:124,32@a   | be no$2$ infection in$4$ the complaint. He began with great 
115:125,01@a   | earnestness to$9$ entreat her to$9$ refrain from visiting the sick 
115:125,02@a   | chamber again, for$4$ the present$0#1$ ~~ to$9$ entreat her to$9$ \promise$1$\ 
115:125,03@a   | \him\ not to$9$ venture into such hazard$0$ till he had seen 
115:125,04@a   | $EM#W$Mr%*Perry and learnt his opinion; 
115:125,04['  ]| and though she tried 
115:125,05['  ]| to$9$ laugh$1$ it off and bring the subject$0$ back$5$ into its proper 
115:125,06['  ]| course$0$, there was no$2$ putting an end$0$ to$4$ his extreme$2$ 
115:125,07['  ]| solicitude about$4$ her. She was vexed. 
115:125,07@a   | It did appear ~~ 
115:125,08@a   | there was no$2$ concealing it ~~ exactly like$4$ the pretence of 
115:125,09@a   | being$1$ in$4$ love$0$ with her, instead of $EM#M$Harriet; an inconstancy, 
115:125,10@a   | if real, the most contemptible and abominable! 
115:125,10['  ]| and she 
115:125,11['  ]| had difficulty in$4$ behaving with temper. He turned to$4$ 
115:125,12['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$9$ implore her assistance, 
115:125,12[H  ]| "Would not she 
115:125,13[H  ]| give him her support$0$? ~~ would not she add her persuasions 
115:125,14[H  ]| to$4$ his, to$9$ induce $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse not to$9$ go to$4$ 
$EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, 
115:125,15[H  ]| till it were certain that$3$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith's disorder had 
115:125,16[H  ]| no$2$ infection? He could not be satisfied without a promise$0$ 
115:125,17[H  ]| ~~ would not she give him her influence$0$ in$4$ procuring it?" 
115:125,18[H  ]| "So$5#1$ scrupulous for$4$ others," 
115:125,18['  ]| he continued, 
115:125,18[H  ]| "and yet 
115:125,19[H  ]| so$5#1$ careless for$4$ herself! She wanted me to$9$ nurse$1$ my cold$0$ 
115:125,20[H  ]| by$4$ staying at home to-day, and yet will$1$ not promise$1$ to$9$ 
115:125,21[H  ]| avoid the danger of catching an ulcerated sore*throat 
115:125,22[H  ]| herself! Is this fair, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston? ~~ Judge$1$ between us. 
115:125,23[H  ]| Have not I some right$0$ to$9$ complain? I am sure of your 
115:125,24[H  ]| kind$2$ support$0$ and aid." 
115:125,25['  ]| $EM#A$Emma saw $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's surprize$0$, and felt that$3$ 
115:125,25@a   | it must 
115:125,26@a   | be great, at an address$0$ which$6#1$, in$4$ words and manner, was 
115:125,27@a   | assuming to$4$ himself the right$0$ of first interest$0$ in$4$ her; and 
115:125,28@a   | as for$4$ herself, she was too$5#1$ much provoked and offended 
115:125,29@a   | to$9$ have the power of directly saying any*thing to$4$ the 
115:125,30@a   | purpose. 
115:125,30['  ]| She could only give him a look$0$; but it was such 
115:125,31['  ]| a look$0$ as she thought$1$ 
115:125,31@a   | must restore him to$4$ his senses; 
115:125,31['  ]| and 
115:125,32['  ]| then left the sopha, removing to$4$ a seat by$4$ her sister, and 
115:125,33['  ]| giving her all her attention. 
115:125,34['  ]| She had not time to$9$ know how $EM#H$Mr%*Elton took the 
115:125,35['  ]| reproof, so$5#1$ rapidly did another subject$0$ succeed; for$3$ 
115:125,36['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley now came into the room from examining 
115:125,37['  ]| the weather, and opened on$4$ them all with the information 
115:125,38['  ]| of the ground being$1$ covered with snow, and of its 
115:126,01['  ]| still$5$ snowing fast, with a strong drifting wind; concluding 
115:126,02['  ]| with these words to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse: 
115:126,03[K  ]| "This will$1$ prove a spirited beginning of your winter 
115:126,04[K  ]| engagements, sir. Something new for$4$ your coachman and 
115:126,05[K  ]| horses to$9$ be making their way through$4$ a storm$0$ of snow." 
115:126,06['  ]| Poor $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was silent from consternation; 
115:126,07['  ]| but every*body else had something to$9$ say; every*body 
115:126,08['  ]| was either surprized or not surprized, and had some 
115:126,09['  ]| question$0$ to$9$ ask, or some comfort$0$ to$9$ offer$1$. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
115:126,10['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma tried earnestly to$9$ cheer him and turn$1$ his 
115:126,11['  ]| attention from his son-in-law, who$6#1$ was pursuing his 
115:126,12['  ]| triumph$0$ rather unfeelingly. 
115:126,13[K  ]| "I admired your resolution very much, sir," 
115:126,13['  ]| said he, 
115:126,14[K  ]| "in$4$ venturing out$5$ in$4$ such weather, for$3$ of course$8$ you saw 
115:126,15[K  ]| there would be snow very soon. Every*body must have 
115:126,16[K  ]| seen the snow coming on$5$. I admired your spirit; and 
115:126,17[K  ]| I dare$1#2$ say we shall get home very well$5$. Another hour 
115:126,18[K  ]| or two's snow can hardly make$1$ the road impassable; and 
115:126,19[K  ]| we are two carriages; if \one\ is blown over in$4$ the bleak 
115:126,20[K  ]| part$0$ of the common$2$ field there will$1$ be the other at hand$0$. 
115:126,21[K  ]| I dare$1#2$ say we shall be all safe at Hartfield before$4$ midnight." 
115:126,22['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, with triumph$0$ of a different sort, was 
115:126,23['  ]| confessing that$3$ 
115:126,23@n   | he had known it to$9$ be snowing some time, 
115:126,24@n   | but had not said a word, lest it should make$1$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
115:126,25@n   | uncomfortable, and be an excuse$0$ for$4$ his hurrying 
115:126,26@n   | away. As to$4$ there being$1$ any quantity of snow fallen or 
115:126,27@n   | likely to$9$ fall$1$ to$9$ impede their return$0$, that$6#2$ was a mere joke; 
115:126,28@n   | he was afraid they would find no$2$ difficulty. He wished 
115:126,29@n   | the road might be impassable, that$3$ he might be able to$9$ 
115:126,30@n   | keep them all at Randalls; and 
115:126,30['  ]| with the utmost good-will 
115:126,31@n   | was sure that$3$ accommodation might be found for$4$ every*body, 
115:126,32['  ]| calling on$4$ his wife to$9$ agree with him, that$3$, 
115:126,32@n   | with 
115:126,33@n   | a little contrivance, every*body might be lodged, 
115:126,33['  ]| which$6#1$ 
115:126,34['  ]| she hardly knew how to$9$ do, from the consciousness of 
115:126,35['  ]| there being$1$ but two spare$2$ rooms in$4$ the house. 
115:126,36[P  ]| "What is to$9$ be done, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma? ~~ what is to$9$ be 
115:126,37[P  ]| done?" 
115:126,37['  ]| was $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's first exclamation, and all 
115:126,38['  ]| that$6#1$ he could say for$4$ some time. To$4$ her he looked for$4$ 
115:127,01['  ]| comfort$0$; and her assurances of safety, her representation 
115:127,02['  ]| of the excellence of the horses, and of $EM#ZI$James, and of their 
115:127,03['  ]| having so$5#1$ many friends about$4$ them, revived him a little. 
115:127,04['  ]| His eldest daughter's alarm$0$ was equal$2$ to$4$ his own$2$. The 
115:127,05['  ]| horror of being$1$ blocked up$5$ at Randalls, while$3$ her children 
115:127,06['  ]| were at Hartfield, was full in$4$ her imagination; and 
115:127,07['  ]| fancying the road to$9$ be now just$5$ passable for$4$ adventurous 
115:127,08['  ]| people, but in$4$ a state$0$ that$6#1$ admitted no$2$ delay$0$, she was 
115:127,09['  ]| eager to$9$ have it settled, that$3$ her father and $EM#A$Emma should 
115:127,10['  ]| remain at Randalls, while$3$ she and her husband set$1$ forward$5$ 
115:127,11['  ]| instantly through$4$ all the possible accumulations of drifted 
115:127,12['  ]| snow that$6#1$ might impede them. 
115:127,13[L  ]| "You had better order the carriage directly, my love$0$," 
115:127,14['  ]| said she; 
115:127,14[L  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say we shall be able to$9$ get along$5$, if we 
115:127,15[L  ]| set$1$ off directly; and if we do come to$4$ any*thing very bad, 
115:127,16[L  ]| I can get out$5$ and walk$1$. I am not at all afraid. I should 
115:127,17[L  ]| not mind$1$ walking half the way. I could change$1$ my shoes, 
115:127,18[L  ]| you know, the moment I got home; and it is not the sort 
115:127,19[L  ]| of thing that$6#1$ gives me cold$0$." 
115:127,20[K  ]| "Indeed!" 
115:127,20['  ]| replied he. 
115:127,20[K  ]| "Then, my dear$2#1$ $EM#L$Isabella, it is 
115:127,21[K  ]| the most extraordinary sort of thing in$4$ the world, for$3$ in$4$ 
115:127,22[K  ]| general$0$ every*thing does give you cold$0$. Walk$1$ home! ~~ 
115:127,23[K  ]| you are prettily shod for$4$ walking home, I dare$1#2$ say. It 
115:127,24[K  ]| will$1$ be bad enough for$4$ the horses." 
115:127,25['  ]| $EM#L$Isabella turned to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston for$4$ her approbation of 
115:127,26['  ]| the plan. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston could only approve. $EM#L$Isabella 
115:127,27['  ]| then went to$4$ $EM#A$Emma; but $EM#A$Emma could not so$5#1$ entirely give 
115:127,28['  ]| up$5$ the hope$0$ of their being$1$ all able to$9$ get away; and they 
115:127,29['  ]| were still$5$ discussing the point$0$, when $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, who$6#1$ 
115:127,30['  ]| had left the room immediately after$4$ his brother's first 
115:127,31['  ]| report$0$ of the snow, came back$5$ again, and told them that$3$ 
115:127,32@b   | he had been out$5$ of doors to$9$ examine, and could answer$1$ 
115:127,33@b   | for$4$ there not being$1$ the smallest difficulty in$4$ their getting 
115:127,34@b   | home, whenever they liked it, either now or an hour hence. 
115:127,35@b   | He had gone beyond$4$ the sweep ~~ some way along$4$ the 
115:127,36@b   | Highbury road ~~ the snow was no*where above$4$ half an 
115:127,37@b   | inch deep ~~ in$4$ many places$0$ hardly enough to$9$ whiten the 
115:127,38@b   | ground; a very few flakes were falling at present$0#1$, but the 
115:128,01@b   | clouds were parting, and there was every appearance of 
115:128,02@b   | its being$1$ soon over. He had seen the coachmen, and they 
115:128,03@b   | both agreed with him in$4$ there being$1$ nothing to$9$ apprehend. 
115:128,04['  ]| To$4$ $EM#L$Isabella, the relief of such tidings was very great, 
115:128,05['  ]| and they were scarcely less acceptable to$4$ $EM#A$Emma on$4$ her 
115:128,06['  ]| father's account$0$, who$6#1$ was immediately set$1$ as much at ease$0$ 
115:128,07['  ]| on$4$ the subject$0$ as his nervous constitution allowed; but 
115:128,08['  ]| the alarm$0$ that$6#1$ had been raised could not be appeased so$3$ 
115:128,09['  ]| as to$9$ admit of any comfort$0$ for$4$ him while$3$ he continued at 
115:128,10['  ]| Randalls. He was satisfied of there being$1$ no$2$ present$2$ 
115:128,11['  ]| danger in$4$ returning home, but no$2$ assurances could 
115:128,12['  ]| convince him that$3$ it was safe to$9$ stay$1$; and while$3$ the 
115:128,13['  ]| others were variously arguing and recommending, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
115:128,14['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma settled it in$4$ a few brief sentences: 
115:128,15['  ]| thus ~~ 
115:128,16[B  ]| "Your father will$1$ not be easy; why do not you go?" 
115:128,17[A  ]| "I am ready, if the others are." 
115:128,18[B  ]| "Shall I ring$0$ the bell?" 
115:128,19[A  ]| "Yes, do." 
115:128,20['  ]| And the bell was rung, and the carriages spoken for$5$. A 
115:128,21['  ]| few minutes more, and $EM#A$Emma hoped 
115:128,21@a   | to$9$ see one troublesome 
115:128,22@a   | companion deposited in$4$ his own$2$ house, to$9$ get sober 
115:128,23@a   | and cool$2$, and the other recover his temper and happiness 
115:128,24@a   | when this visit$0$ of hardship were over. 
115:128,25['  ]| The carriages came: and $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, always the 
115:128,26['  ]| first object$0$ on$4$ such occasions, was carefully attended to$4$ 
115:128,27['  ]| his own$2$ by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston; but not all 
115:128,28['  ]| that$6#1$ either could say could prevent some renewal of alarm$0$ 
115:128,29['  ]| at the sight of the snow which$6#1$ had actually fallen, and 
115:128,30['  ]| the discovery of a much darker night than he had been 
115:128,31['  ]| prepared for$5$. 
115:128,31[P  ]| "He was afraid they should have a very 
115:128,32[P  ]| bad drive$0$. He was afraid poor $EM#L$Isabella would not like$1$ it. 
115:128,33[P  ]| And there would be poor $EM#A$Emma in$4$ the carriage behind. 
115:128,34[P  ]| He did not know what they had best do. They must 
115:128,35[P  ]| keep as much together as they could;" 
115:128,35['  ]| and $EM#ZI$James was 
115:128,36['  ]| talked to$5$, and given a charge$0$ to$9$ 
115:128,36@p   | go very slow and wait 
115:128,37@p   | for$4$ the other carriage. 
115:128,38['  ]| $EM#L$Isabella stept in$5$ after$4$ her father; $EM#K$John*Knightley, 
115:129,01['  ]| forgetting that$3$ he did not belong to$4$ their party, stept in$5$ 
115:129,02['  ]| after$4$ his wife very naturally; so$3$ that$3$ $EM#A$Emma found, on$4$ 
115:129,03['  ]| being$1$ escorted and followed into the second$2$ carriage by$4$ 
115:129,04['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, that$3$ the door was to$9$ be lawfully shut on$4$ them, 
115:129,05['  ]| and that$3$ they were to$9$ have a te^te-a`-te^te drive$0$. 
115:129,05@a   | It would 
115:129,06@a   | not have been the awkwardness of a moment, it would 
115:129,07@a   | have been rather a pleasure, previous to$4$ the suspicions 
115:129,08@a   | of this very day; she could have talked to$4$ him of $EM#M$Harriet, 
115:129,09@a   | and the three-quarters of a mile would have seemed but 
115:129,10@a   | one. But now, she would rather it had not happened. 
115:129,11@a   | She believed he had been drinking too$5#1$ much of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's 
115:129,12@a   | good wine, and felt sure that$3$ he would want$1$ to$9$ be 
115:129,13@a   | talking nonsense. 
115:129,14['  ]| To$9$ restrain him as much as might be, by$4$ her own$2$ 
115:129,15['  ]| manners, she was immediately preparing to$9$ speak with 
115:129,16['  ]| exquisite calmness and gravity of the weather and the 
115:129,17['  ]| night; but scarcely had she begun, scarcely had they 
115:129,18['  ]| passed the sweep-gate and joined the other carriage, than 
115:129,19['  ]| she found 
115:129,19@a   | her subject$0$ cut$1$ up$5$ ~~ her hand$0$ seized ~~ her 
115:129,20@a   | attention demanded, and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton actually making 
115:129,21@a   | violent love$0$ to$4$ her: availing himself of the precious 
115:129,22@a   | opportunity, declaring sentiments which$6#1$ must be already 
115:129,23@a   | well$5$ known, hoping ~~ fearing ~~ adoring ~~ ready to$9$ die$1$ if 
115:129,24@a   | she refused him; but flattering himself that$3$ his ardent 
115:129,25@a   | attachment and unequalled love$0$ and unexampled passion 
115:129,26@a   | could not fail of having some effect$0$, and in$4$ short, very 
115:129,27@a   | much resolved on$4$ being$1$ seriously accepted as soon as 
115:129,28@a   | possible. It really was so$5#2$. Without scruple$0$ ~~ without 
115:129,29@a   | apology ~~ without much apparent diffidence, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, 
115:129,30@a   | the lover of $EM#M$Harriet, was professing himself \her\ lover. 
115:129,31['  ]| She tried to$9$ stop$1$ him; but vainly; 
115:129,31@a   | he would go on$5$, and 
115:129,32@a   | say it all. 
115:129,32['  ]| Angry as she was, the thought$0$ of the moment 
115:129,33['  ]| made her resolve$1$ to$9$ restrain herself when she did speak. 
115:129,34['  ]| She felt that$3$ 
115:129,34@a   | half this folly must be drunkenness, 
115:129,34['  ]| and 
115:129,35['  ]| therefore could hope$1$ that$3$ 
115:129,35@a   | it might belong only to$4$ the 
115:129,36@a   | passing hour. 
115:129,36['  ]| Accordingly, with a mixture of the serious$0$ 
115:129,37['  ]| and the playful, which$6#1$ she hoped would best suit$1$ his half 
115:129,38['  ]| and half state$0$, she replied, 
115:130,01[A  ]| "I am very much astonished, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. This to$4$ \me\! 
115:130,02[A  ]| you forget yourself ~~ you take me for$4$ my friend ~~ any 
115:130,03[A  ]| message to$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith I shall be happy to$9$ deliver; but 
115:130,04[A  ]| no$2$ more of this to$4$ \me\, if you please." 
115:130,05[H  ]| "$EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ Message to$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ What could 
115:130,06[H  ]| she possibly mean$1$!" ~~ 
115:130,06['  ]| And he repeated her words with 
115:130,07['  ]| such assurance of accent, such boastful pretence of amazement, 
115:130,08['  ]| that$3$ she could not help$1$ replying with quickness, 
115:130,09[A  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton, this is the most extraordinary conduct$0$! 
115:130,10[A  ]| and I can account$1$ for$4$ it only in$4$ one way; you are not 
115:130,11[A  ]| yourself, or you could not speak either to$4$ me, or of $EM#M$Harriet, 
115:130,12[A  ]| in$4$ such a manner. Command$1$ yourself enough to$9$ say no$2$ 
115:130,13[A  ]| more, and I will$1$ endeavour$1$ to$9$ forget it." 
115:130,14['  ]| But $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had only drunk wine enough to$9$ elevate 
115:130,15['  ]| his spirits, not at all to$9$ confuse his intellects. He perfectly 
115:130,16['  ]| knew his own$2$ meaning; and having warmly protested 
115:130,17['  ]| against her suspicion as most injurious, and slightly 
115:130,18['  ]| touched upon$4$ his respect$0$ for$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith as her friend, ~~ 
115:130,19['  ]| but acknowledging his wonder$0$ that$3$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith should be 
115:130,20['  ]| mentioned at all, ~~ he resumed the subject$0$ of his own$2$ 
115:130,21['  ]| passion, and was very urgent for$4$ a favourable answer$0$. 
115:130,22['  ]| As she thought$1$ less of his inebriety, she thought$1$ more 
115:130,23['  ]| of his inconstancy and presumption; and with fewer 
115:130,24['  ]| struggles for$4$ politeness, replied, 
115:130,25[A  ]| "It is impossible for$4$ me to$9$ doubt$1$ any longer. You 
115:130,26[A  ]| have made yourself too$5#1$ clear$2$. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, my astonishment 
115:130,27[A  ]| is much beyond$4$ any*thing I can express$1$. After$4$ such 
115:130,28[A  ]| behaviour, as I have witnessed during the last$2$ month, to$4$ 
115:130,29[A  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Smith ~~ such attentions as I have been in$4$ the daily 
115:130,30[A  ]| habit of observing ~~ to$9$ be addressing me in$4$ this manner ~~ 
115:130,31[A  ]| this is an unsteadiness of character, indeed, which$6#1$ I had 
115:130,32[A  ]| not supposed possible! Believe me, sir, I am far, very 
115:130,33[A  ]| far, from gratified in$4$ being$1$ the object$0$ of such professions." 
115:130,34[H  ]| "Good heaven!" 
115:130,34['  ]| cried $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, 
115:130,34[H  ]| "what can be the 
115:130,35[H  ]| meaning of this? ~~ $EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ I never thought$1$ of $EM#M$Miss*Smith 
115:130,36[H  ]| in$4$ the whole$2$ course$0$ of my existence ~~ never paid 
115:130,37[H  ]| her any attentions, but as your friend: never cared 
115:130,38[H  ]| whether she were dead or alive, but as your friend. If she 
115:131,01[H  ]| has fancied otherwise, her own$2$ wishes$0$ have misled her, 
115:131,02[H  ]| and I am very sorry ~~ extremely sorry ~~ But, $EM#M$Miss*Smith, 
115:131,03[H  ]| indeed! ~~ Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse! who$6#2$ can think of $EM#M$Miss*Smith, 
115:131,04[H  ]| when $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse is near$5$! No$7$, upon$4$ my 
115:131,05[H  ]| honour$0$, there is no$2$ unsteadiness of character. I have 
115:131,06[H  ]| thought$1$ only of you. I protest against having paid the 
115:131,07[H  ]| smallest attention to$4$ any*one else. Every*thing that$6#1$ 
115:131,08[H  ]| I have said or done, for$4$ many weeks past$1$, has been with 
115:131,09[H  ]| the sole view$0$ of marking my adoration of yourself. You 
115:131,10[H  ]| cannot really, seriously, doubt$1$ it. No$7$! ~~ 
115:131,10['  ]| (in$4$ an accent 
115:131,11['  ]| meant to$9$ be insinuating) ~~ 
115:131,11[H  ]| I am sure you have seen and 
115:131,12[H  ]| understood me." 
115:131,13['  ]| It would be impossible to$9$ say what $EM#A$Emma felt, on$4$ 
115:131,14['  ]| hearing this ~~ which$6#1$ of all her unpleasant sensations was 
115:131,15['  ]| uppermost. She was too$5#1$ completely overpowered to$9$ be 
115:131,16['  ]| immediately able to$9$ reply$1$: and two moments of silence$0$ 
115:131,17['  ]| being$1$ ample encouragement for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's sanguine state$0$ 
115:131,18['  ]| of mind$0$, he tried to$9$ take her hand$0$ again, as he joyously 
115:131,19['  ]| exclaimed ~~ 
115:131,20[H  ]| "Charming $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse! allow me to$9$ interpret 
115:131,21[H  ]| this interesting silence$0$. It confesses that$3$ you have long 
115:131,22[H  ]| understood me." 
115:131,23[A  ]| "No$7$, sir," 
115:131,23['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
115:131,23[A  ]| "it confesses no$2$ such thing. 
115:131,24[A  ]| So$5#1$ far from having long understood you, I have been in$4$ 
115:131,25[A  ]| a most complete$2$ error with respect$0$ to$4$ your views, till this 
115:131,26[A  ]| moment. As to$4$ myself, I am very sorry that$3$ you should 
115:131,27[A  ]| have been giving way to$4$ any feelings ~~ Nothing could 
115:131,28[A  ]| be farther from my wishes$0$ ~~ your attachment to$4$ my friend 
115:131,29[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet ~~ your pursuit of her, (pursuit, it appeared,) gave 
115:131,30[A  ]| me great pleasure, and I have been very earnestly wishing 
115:131,31[A  ]| you success: but had I supposed that$3$ she were not your 
115:131,32[A  ]| attraction to$4$ Hartfield, I should certainly have thought$1$ 
115:131,33[A  ]| you judged ill in$4$ making your visits so$5#1$ frequent. Am 
115:131,34[A  ]| I to$9$ believe that$3$ you have never sought to$9$ recommend 
115:131,35[A  ]| yourself particularly to$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith? ~~ that$3$ you have 
115:131,36[A  ]| never thought$1$ seriously of her?" 
115:131,37[H  ]| "Never, madam," 
115:131,37['  ]| cried he, affronted, in$4$ his turn$0$: 
115:131,38[H  ]| "never, I assure you. \I\ think seriously of $EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ 
115:132,01[H  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Smith is a very good sort of girl; and I should be 
115:132,02[H  ]| happy to$9$ see her respectably settled. I wish$1$ her extremely 
115:132,03[H  ]| well$5$: and, no$2$ doubt$0$, there are men who$6#1$ might not object$1$ 
115:132,04[H  ]| to$4$ ~~ Every*body has their level: but as for$4$ myself, I am 
115:132,05[H  ]| not, I think, quite so$5#1$ much at a loss. I need$1$ not so$5#1$ totally 
115:132,06[H  ]| despair$1$ of an equal$2$ alliance, as to$9$ be addressing myself 
115:132,07[H  ]| to$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ No$7$, madam, my visits to$4$ Hartfield 
115:132,08[H  ]| have been for$4$ yourself only; and the encouragement I 
115:132,09[H  ]| received" ~~ 
115:132,10[A  ]| "Encouragement! ~~ I give you encouragement! ~~ sir, 
115:132,11[A  ]| you have been entirely mistaken in$4$ supposing it. I have 
115:132,12[A  ]| seen you only as the admirer of my friend. In$4$ no$2$ other 
115:132,13[A  ]| light$0$ could you have been more to$4$ me than a common$2$ 
115:132,14[A  ]| acquaintance. I am exceedingly sorry: but it is well$5$ 
115:132,15[A  ]| that$3$ the mistake$0$ ends$1$ where it does. Had the same 
115:132,16[A  ]| behaviour continued, $EM#M$Miss*Smith might have been led 
115:132,17[A  ]| into a misconception of your views; not being$1$ aware, 
115:132,18[A  ]| probably, any more than myself, of the very great inequality 
115:132,19[A  ]| which$6#1$ you are so$5#1$ sensible$2#1$ of. But, as it is, the disappointment 
115:132,20[A  ]| is single, and, I trust$1$, will$1$ not be lasting. I have no$2$ 
115:132,21[A  ]| thoughts of matrimony at present$0#1$." 
115:132,22['  ]| He was too$5#1$ angry to$9$ say another word; her manner 
115:132,23['  ]| too$5#1$ decided to$9$ invite supplication; and in$4$ this state$0$ of 
115:132,24['  ]| swelling resentment, and mutually deep mortification, 
115:132,25['  ]| they had to$9$ continue together a few minutes longer, for$3$ 
115:132,26['  ]| the fears of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had confined them to$4$ a foot 
115:132,27['  ]| pace$0$. If there had not been so$5#1$ much anger$0$, there would 
115:132,28['  ]| have been desperate awkwardness; but their straightforward 
115:132,29['  ]| emotions left no$2$ room for$4$ the little zigzags of 
115:132,30['  ]| embarrassment. Without knowing when the carriage 
115:132,31['  ]| turned into Vicarage-lane, or when it stopped, they found 
115:132,32['  ]| themselves, all at once, at the door of his house; and he 
115:132,33['  ]| was out$5$ before$3$ another syllable passed. ~~ $EM#A$Emma then felt 
115:132,34['  ]| it indispensable to$9$ wish$1$ him a good night. The compliment$0$ 
115:132,35['  ]| was just$5$ returned, coldly and proudly; and, under 
115:132,36['  ]| indescribable irritation of spirits, she was then conveyed 
115:132,37['  ]| to$4$ Hartfield. 
115:132,38['  ]| There she was welcomed, with the utmost delight$0$, by$4$ 
115:133,01['  ]| her father, who$6#1$ had been trembling for$4$ 
115:133,01@p   | the dangers of 
115:133,02@p   | a solitary drive$0$ from Vicarage-lane ~~ turning a corner 
115:133,03@p   | which$6#1$ he could never bear$1$ to$9$ think of ~~ and in$4$ strange 
115:133,04@p   | hands ~~ a mere common$2$ coachman ~~ no$2$ $EM#ZI$James; 
115:133,04['  ]| and there 
115:133,05@a   | it seemed as if her return$0$ only were wanted to$9$ make$1$ every*thing 
115:133,06@a   | go well$5$: for$3$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley, ashamed of his ill-humour, 
115:133,07@a   | was now all kindness and attention; and so$5#1$ 
115:133,08@a   | particularly solicitous for$4$ the comfort$0$ of her father, as to$9$ 
115:133,09@a   | seem ~~ if not quite ready to$9$ join him in$4$ a basin of gruel ~~ 
115:133,10@a   | perfectly sensible$2#1$ of its being$1$ exceedingly wholesome; 
115:133,11@a   | and the day was concluding in$4$ peace and comfort$0$ to$4$ all 
115:133,12@a   | their little party, except herself. ~~ 
115:133,12['  ]| But her mind$0$ had never 
115:133,13['  ]| been in$4$ such perturbation, and it needed a very strong 
115:133,14['  ]| effort to$9$ appear attentive and cheerful till the usual hour 
115:133,15['  ]| of separating allowed her the relief of quiet$2$ reflection. 
116:134,01['  ]| The hair was curled, and the maid sent away, and 
116:134,02['  ]| $EM#A$Emma sat down$5$ to$9$ think and be miserable. ~~ 
116:134,02@a   | It was 
116:134,03@a   | a wretched business, indeed! ~~ Such an overthrow of 
116:134,04@a   | every*thing she had been wishing for$4$! ~~ Such a development 
116:134,05@a   | of every*thing most unwelcome! ~~ Such a blow for$4$ 
116:134,06@a   | $EM#M$Harriet! ~~ That$6#2$ was the worst of all. Every part$0$ of it 
116:134,07@a   | brought pain$0$ and humiliation, of some sort or other; but, 
116:134,08@a   | compared with the evil to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, all was light$2$; and she 
116:134,09@a   | would gladly have submitted to$9$ feel yet more mistaken ~~ 
116:134,10@a   | more in$4$ error ~~ more disgraced by$4$ mis-judgment, than she 
116:134,11@a   | actually was, could the effects of her blunders have been 
116:134,12@a   | confined to$4$ herself. 
116:134,13@a   | "If I had not persuaded $EM#M$Harriet into liking the man, I 
116:134,14@a   | could have born$1#2$ any*thing. He might have doubled his 
116:134,15@a   | presumption to$4$ me ~~ But poor $EM#M$Harriet!" 
116:134,16@a   | How she could have been so$5#1$ deceived! ~~ He protested 
116:134,17@a   | that$3$ he had never thought$1$ seriously of $EM#M$Harriet ~~ never! 
116:134,18@a   | She looked back$5$ as well$5$ as she could; but it was all 
116:134,19@a   | confusion. She had taken up$5$ the idea, she supposed, and 
116:134,20@a   | made every*thing bend$1$ to$4$ it. His manners, however, 
116:134,21@a   | must have been unmarked, wavering, dubious, or she 
116:134,22@a   | could not have been so$5#1$ misled. 
116:134,23@a   | The picture$0$! ~~ How eager he had been about$4$ the 
116:134,24@a   | picture$0$! ~~ and the charade! ~~ and an hundred other 
116:134,25@a   | circumstances; ~~ how clearly they had seemed to$9$ point$1$ 
116:134,26@a   | at $EM#M$Harriet. To$9$ be sure, the charade, with its 
116:134,26@h   | "ready 
116:134,27@h   | wit" ~~ 
116:134,27@a   | but then, the 
116:134,27@h   | "soft eyes" ~~ 
116:134,27@a   | in$4$ fact it suited 
116:134,28@a   | neither; it was a jumble without taste or truth. Who$6#2$ 
116:134,29@a   | could have seen through$4$ such thick-headed nonsense? 
116:134,30@a   | Certainly she had often, especially of late, thought$1$ his 
116:134,31@a   | manners to$4$ herself unnecessarily gallant; but it had 
116:134,32@a   | passed as his way, as a mere error of judgment, of knowledge, 
116:134,33@a   | of taste, as one proof among others that$3$ he had not 
116:135,01@a   | always lived in$4$ the best society, that$3$ with all the gentleness 
116:135,02@a   | of his address$0$, true elegance was sometimes wanting; 
116:135,03@a   | but, till this very day, she had never, for$4$ an instant$0$, 
116:135,04@a   | suspected it to$9$ mean$1$ any*thing but grateful respect$0$ to$4$ her 
116:135,05@a   | as $EM#M$Harriet's friend. 
116:135,06@a   | To$4$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley was she indebted for$4$ her first 
116:135,07@a   | idea on$4$ the subject$0$, for$4$ the first start$0$ of its possibility. 
116:135,08@a   | There was no$2$ denying that$3$ those brothers had penetration. 
116:135,09['  ]| She remembered what $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had once said to$4$ 
116:135,10['  ]| her about$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, the caution$0$ he had given, the conviction 
116:135,11['  ]| he had professed that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton would never 
116:135,12['  ]| marry indiscreetly; and blushed to$9$ think 
116:135,12@a   | how much 
116:135,13@a   | truer a knowledge of his character had been there shewn 
116:135,14@a   | than any she had reached herself. It was dreadfully 
116:135,15@a   | mortifying; but $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was proving himself, in$4$ many 
116:135,16@a   | respects, the very reverse of what she had meant and 
116:135,17@a   | believed him; proud, assuming, conceited; very full of 
116:135,18@a   | his own$2$ claims, and little concerned about$4$ the feelings of 
116:135,19@a   | others. 
116:135,20['  ]| Contrary to$4$ the usual course$0$ of things, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's wanting 
116:135,21['  ]| to$9$ pay$1$ his addresses to$4$ her had sunk him in$4$ her 
116:135,22['  ]| opinion. His professions and his proposals did him no$2$ 
116:135,23['  ]| service. She thought$1$ nothing of his attachment, and was 
116:135,24['  ]| insulted by$4$ his hopes$0$. 
116:135,24@a   | He wanted to$9$ marry well$5$, and 
116:135,25@a   | having the arrogance to$9$ raise his eyes to$4$ her, pretended 
116:135,26@a   | to$9$ be in$4$ love$0$; but she was perfectly easy as to$4$ his not 
116:135,27@a   | suffering any disappointment that$6#1$ need$1$ be cared for$5$. 
116:135,28@a   | There had been no$2$ real affection either in$4$ his language or 
116:135,29@a   | manners. Sighs and fine words had been given in$4$ abundance; 
116:135,30@a   | but she could hardly devise any set$0$ of expressions, 
116:135,31@a   | or fancy$1$ any tone of voice, less allied with real love$0$. 
116:135,32@a   | She need$1$ not trouble$1$ herself to$9$ pity$1$ him. He only 
116:135,33@a   | wanted to$9$ aggrandize and enrich himself; and if $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
116:135,34@a   | of Hartfield, the heiress of thirty thousand 
116:135,35@a   | pounds, were not quite so$5#1$ easily obtained as he had 
116:135,36@a   | fancied, he would soon try for$4$ $EM#X$Miss*Somebody else with 
116:135,37@a   | twenty, or with ten. 
116:135,38@a   | But ~~ that$3$ he should talk$1$ of encouragement, should 
116:136,01@a   | consider her as aware of his views, accepting his attentions, 
116:136,02@a   | meaning (in$4$ short), to$9$ marry him! ~~ should suppose 
116:136,03@a   | himself her equal$0$ in$4$ connection or mind$0$! ~~ look$1$ down$5$ 
116:136,04@a   | upon$4$ her friend, so$5#1$ well$5$ understanding the gradations of 
116:136,05@a   | rank$0$ below him, and be so$5#1$ blind$2$ to$4$ what rose$1$ above$5$, as 
116:136,06@a   | to$9$ fancy$1$ himself shewing no$2$ presumption in$4$ addressing 
116:136,07@a   | her! ~~ It was most provoking. 
116:136,08@a   | Perhaps it was not fair to$9$ expect him to$9$ feel how very 
116:136,09@a   | much he was her inferior in$4$ talent, and all the elegancies 
116:136,10@a   | of mind$0$. The very want$0$ of such equality might prevent 
116:136,11@a   | his perception of it; but he must know that$3$ in$4$ fortune and 
116:136,12@a   | consequence she was greatly his superior. He must know 
116:136,13@a   | that$3$ the $EM#P1$Woodhouses had been settled for$4$ several generations 
116:136,14@a   | at Hartfield, the younger branch of a very ancient 
116:136,15@a   | family ~~ and that$3$ the $EM#H1$Eltons were nobody. The landed 
116:136,16@a   | property of Hartfield certainly was inconsiderable, being$1$ 
116:136,17@a   | but a sort of notch in$4$ the Donwell*Abbey estate, to$4$ which$6#1$ 
116:136,18@a   | all the rest$0#1$ of Highbury belonged; but their fortune, 
116:136,19@a   | from other sources, was such as to$9$ make$1$ them scarcely 
116:136,20@a   | secondary to$4$ Donwell*Abbey itself, in$4$ every other kind$0$ of 
116:136,21@a   | consequence; and the $EM#P1$Woodhouses had long held a high 
116:136,22@a   | place$0$ in$4$ the consideration of the neighbourhood which$6#1$ 
116:136,23@a   | $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had first entered not two years ago, to$9$ make$1$ 
116:136,24@a   | his way as he could, without any alliances but in$4$ trade, or 
116:136,25@a   | any*thing to$9$ recommend him to$9$ notice$1$ but his situation 
116:136,26@a   | and his civility. ~~ But he had fancied her in$4$ love$0$ with him; 
116:136,27@a   | that$6#2$ evidently must have been his dependence; 
116:136,27['  ]| and after$4$ 
116:136,28['  ]| raving a little about$4$ the seeming incongruity of gentle 
116:136,29['  ]| manners and a conceited head$0$, $EM#A$Emma was obliged in$4$ 
116:136,30['  ]| common$2$ honesty to$9$ stop$1$ and admit that$3$ 
116:136,30@a   | her own$2$ behaviour 
116:136,31@a   | to$4$ him had been so$5#1$ complaisant and obliging, so$5#1$ full of 
116:136,32@a   | courtesy and attention, as (supposing her real motive 
116:136,33@a   | unperceived) might warrant a man of ordinary observation 
116:136,34@a   | and delicacy, like$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, in$4$ fancying himself 
116:136,35@a   | a very decided favourite$0$. If \she\ had so$5#1$ misinterpreted his 
116:136,36@a   | feelings, she had little right$0$ to$9$ wonder$1$ that$3$ \he\, with self-interest 
116:136,37@a   | to$9$ blind$1$ him, should have mistaken her's. 
116:136,38@a   | The first error and the worst lay$1#2$ at her door. It was 
116:137,01@a   | foolish, it was wrong, to$9$ take so$5#1$ active a part$0$ in$4$ bringing 
116:137,02@a   | any two people together. It was adventuring too$5#1$ far, 
116:137,03@a   | assuming too$5#1$ much, making light$2$ of what ought to$9$ be 
116:137,04@a   | serious$2$, a trick$0$ of what ought to$9$ be simple$2$. She was 
116:137,05@a   | quite concerned and ashamed, and resolved to$9$ do such 
116:137,06@a   | things no$2$ more. 
116:137,07[A  ]| "Here have I," 
116:137,07['  ]| said she, 
116:137,07[A  ]| "actually talked poor $EM#M$Harriet 
116:137,08[A  ]| into being$1$ very much attached to$4$ this man. She might 
116:137,09[A  ]| never have thought$1$ of him but for$4$ me; and certainly 
116:137,10[A  ]| never would have thought$1$ of him with hope$0$, if I had not 
116:137,11[A  ]| assured her of his attachment, for$3$ she is as modest and 
116:137,12[A  ]| humble$2$ as I used to$9$ think him. Oh! that$3$ I had been 
116:137,13[A  ]| satisfied with persuading her not to$9$ accept young $EM#R$Martin. 
116:137,14[A  ]| There I was quite right$2#1$. That$6#2$ was well$5$ done of me; but 
116:137,15[A  ]| there I should have stopped, and left the rest$0#1$ to$4$ time and 
116:137,16[A  ]| chance$0$. I was introducing her into good company, and 
116:137,17[A  ]| giving her the opportunity of pleasing some*one worth 
116:137,18[A  ]| having; I ought not to$9$ have attempted more. But now, 
116:137,19[A  ]| poor girl, her peace is cut$1$ up$5$ for$4$ some time. I have been 
116:137,20[A  ]| but half a friend to$4$ her; and if she were \not\ to$9$ feel this 
116:137,21[A  ]| disappointment so$5#1$ very much, I am sure I have not an 
116:137,22[A  ]| idea of any*body else who$6#1$ would be at all desirable for$4$ her; 
116:137,23[A  ]| ~~ $EM#ZE1$William*Coxe ~~ Oh! no$7$, I could not endure $EM#ZE1$William*Coxe ~~ 
116:137,24[A  ]| a pert young lawyer." 
116:137,25['  ]| She stopt to$9$ blush$1$ and laugh$1$ at her own$2$ relapse, and 
116:137,26['  ]| then resumed a more serious$2$, more dispiriting cogitation 
116:137,27['  ]| upon$4$ what had been, and might be, and must be. The 
116:137,28['  ]| distressing explanation she had to$9$ make$1$ to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, and 
116:137,29['  ]| all that$6#1$ poor $EM#M$Harriet would be suffering, with the awkwardness 
116:137,30['  ]| of future meetings, the difficulties of continuing or 
116:137,31['  ]| discontinuing the acquaintance, of subduing feelings, 
116:137,32['  ]| concealing resentment, and avoiding eclat, were enough 
116:137,33['  ]| to$9$ occupy her in$4$ most unmirthful reflections some time 
116:137,34['  ]| longer, and she went to$4$ bed at last$0$ with nothing settled 
116:137,35['  ]| but the conviction of her having blundered most dreadfully. 
116:137,36['  ]| To$4$ youth and natural$2$ cheerfulness like$4$ $EM#A$Emma's, though 
116:137,37['  ]| under temporary gloom at night, the return$0$ of day will$1$ 
116:137,38['  ]| hardly fail to$9$ bring return$0$ of spirits. The youth and 
116:138,01['  ]| cheerfulness of morning are in$4$ happy analogy, and of 
116:138,02['  ]| powerful operation; and if the distress$0$ be not poignant 
116:138,03['  ]| enough to$9$ keep the eyes unclosed, they will$1$ be sure to$9$ 
116:138,04['  ]| open$1$ to$4$ sensations of softened pain$0$ and brighter hope$0$. 
116:138,05['  ]| $EM#A$Emma got up$5$ on$4$ the morrow more disposed for$4$ comfort$0$ 
116:138,06['  ]| than she had gone to$4$ bed, more ready to$9$ see alleviations 
116:138,07['  ]| of the evil before$4$ her, and to$9$ depend on$4$ getting tolerably 
116:138,08['  ]| out$5$ of it. 
116:138,09@a   | It was a great consolation that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton should not be 
116:138,10@a   | really in$4$ love$0$ with her, or so$5#1$ particularly amiable as to$9$ 
116:138,11@a   | make$1$ it shocking to$9$ disappoint him ~~ that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's 
116:138,12@a   | nature should not be of that$6#2$ superior sort in$4$ which$6#1$ the 
116:138,13@a   | feelings are most acute and retentive ~~ and that$3$ there 
116:138,14@a   | could be no$2$ necessity for$4$ any*body's knowing what had 
116:138,15@a   | passed except the three principals, and especially for$4$ her 
116:138,16@a   | father's being$1$ given a moment's uneasiness about$4$ it. 
116:138,17['  ]| These were very cheering thoughts; and the sight of 
116:138,18['  ]| a great deal$0$ of snow on$4$ the ground did her further service, 
116:138,19['  ]| for$3$ any*thing was welcome$2$ that$6#1$ might justify their all 
116:138,20['  ]| three being$1$ quite asunder at present$0#1$. 
116:138,21['  ]| The weather was most favourable for$4$ her; though 
116:138,22['  ]| Christmas-day, she could not go to$4$ church. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
116:138,23['  ]| would have been miserable had his daughter 
116:138,24['  ]| attempted it, and she was therefore safe from either 
116:138,25['  ]| exciting or receiving unpleasant and most unsuitable 
116:138,26['  ]| ideas. The ground covered with snow, and the atmosphere 
116:138,27['  ]| in$4$ that$6#2$ unsettled state$0$ between frost and thaw, which$6#1$ is 
116:138,28['  ]| of all others the most unfriendly for$4$ exercise$0$, every morning 
116:138,29['  ]| beginning in$4$ rain$0$ or snow, and every evening setting 
116:138,30['  ]| in$5$ to$9$ freeze, she was for$4$ many days a most honourable 
116:138,31['  ]| prisoner. No$2$ intercourse with $EM#M$Harriet possible but by$4$ 
116:138,32['  ]| note$0$; no$2$ church for$4$ her on$4$ Sunday any more than on$4$ 
116:138,33['  ]| Christmas-day; and no$2$ need$0$ to$9$ find excuses for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
116:138,34['  ]| absenting himself. 
116:138,35['  ]| It was weather which$6#1$ might fairly confine every*body 
116:138,36['  ]| at home; and though she hoped and believed him to$9$ be 
116:138,37['  ]| really taking comfort$0$ in$4$ some society or other, it was very 
116:138,38['  ]| pleasant to$9$ have her father so$5#1$ well$5$ satisfied with his being$1$ 
116:139,01['  ]| all alone in$4$ his own$2$ house, too$5#1$ wise to$9$ stir out$5$; and to$9$ 
116:139,02['  ]| hear him say to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, whom$6#1$ no$2$ weather could 
116:139,03['  ]| keep entirely from them, ~~ 
116:139,04[P  ]| "Ah! $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, why do not you stay$1$ at home 
116:139,05[P  ]| like$4$ poor $EM#H$Mr%*Elton?" 
116:139,06['  ]| These days of confinement would have been, but for$4$ 
116:139,07['  ]| her private$2$ perplexities, remarkably comfortable, as such 
116:139,08['  ]| seclusion exactly suited her brother, whose$6#1$ feelings must 
116:139,09['  ]| always be of great importance to$4$ his companions; and he 
116:139,10['  ]| had, besides, so$5#1$ thoroughly cleared off his ill-humour at 
116:139,11['  ]| Randalls, that$3$ his amiableness never failed him during 
116:139,12['  ]| the rest$0#1$ of his stay$0$ at Hartfield. He was always agreeable 
116:139,13['  ]| and obliging, and speaking pleasantly of every*body. 
116:139,14['  ]| But with all the hopes$0$ of cheerfulness, and all the present$2$ 
116:139,15['  ]| comfort$0$ of delay$0$, there was still$5$ such an evil hanging over 
116:139,16['  ]| her in$4$ the hour of explanation with $EM#M$Harriet, as made it 
116:139,17['  ]| impossible for$4$ $EM#A$Emma to$9$ be ever perfectly at ease$0$. 
117:140,01['  ]| $EM#K$Mr% and $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley were not detained long 
117:140,02['  ]| at Hartfield. The weather soon improved enough for$4$ 
117:140,03['  ]| those to$9$ move$1$ who$6#1$ must move$1$; and $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
117:140,04['  ]| having, as usual, tried to$9$ persuade his daughter to$9$ stay$1$ 
117:140,05['  ]| behind with all her children, was obliged to$9$ see the whole$2$ 
117:140,06['  ]| party set$1$ off, and return$1$ to$4$ his lamentations over the 
117:140,07['  ]| destiny of poor $EM#L$Isabella; ~~ which$6#1$ poor $EM#L$Isabella, passing 
117:140,08['  ]| her life with those she doated on$4$, full of their merits, blind$2$ 
117:140,09['  ]| to$4$ their faults, and always innocently busy, might have 
117:140,10['  ]| been a model of right$2#1$ feminine happiness. 
117:140,11['  ]| The evening of the very day on$4$ which$6#1$ they went, 
117:140,12['  ]| brought a note$0$ from $EM#H$Mr%*Elton to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, a long, 
117:140,13['  ]| civil, ceremonious note$0$, to$9$ say, with $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's best 
117:140,14['  ]| compliments, 
117:140,14[H  ]| "that$3$ he was proposing to$9$ leave$1$ Highbury 
117:140,15[H  ]| the following morning in$4$ his way to$4$ Bath$0#1$, where, in$4$ 
117:140,16[H  ]| compliance with the pressing entreaties of some friends, 
117:140,17[H  ]| he had engaged to$9$ spend a few weeks, and very much 
117:140,18[H  ]| regretted the impossibility he was under, from various 
117:140,19[H  ]| circumstances of weather and business, of taking a personal 
117:140,20[H  ]| leave$0$ of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, of whose$6#1$ friendly civilities he 
117:140,21[H  ]| should ever retain a grateful sense ~~ and had $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
117:140,22[H  ]| any commands, should be happy to$9$ attend to$4$ 
117:140,23[H  ]| them." 
117:140,24['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was most agreeably surprized. ~~ 
117:140,24@a   | $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
117:140,25@a   | absence just$5$ at this time was the very thing to$9$ be desired. 
117:140,26['  ]| She admired him for$4$ contriving it, though not able to$9$ give 
117:140,27['  ]| him much credit$0$ for$4$ the manner in$4$ which$6#1$ it was announced. 
117:140,28@a   | Resentment could not have been more plainly spoken 
117:140,29@a   | than in$4$ a civility to$4$ her father, from which$6#1$ she was so$5#1$ 
117:140,30@a   | pointedly excluded. She had not even$5$ a share$0$ in$4$ his 
117:140,31@a   | opening compliments. ~~ Her name$0$ was not mentioned; ~~ 
117:140,32@a   | and there was so$5#1$ striking a change$0$ in$4$ all this, and such an 
117:140,33@a   | ill-judged solemnity of leave-taking in$4$ his grateful acknowledgments, 
117:141,01@a   | as 
117:141,01['  ]| she thought$1$, at first, 
117:141,01@a   | could not escape$1$ her 
117:141,02@a   | father's suspicion. 
117:141,03@a   | It did however. ~~ Her father was quite taken up$5$ with the 
117:141,04@a   | surprize$0$ of so$5#1$ sudden$2$ a journey, and his fears that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
117:141,05@a   | might never get safely to$4$ the end$0$ of it, and saw 
117:141,06@a   | nothing extraordinary in$4$ his language. 
117:141,06['  ]| It was a very 
117:141,07['  ]| useful note$0$, for$3$ it supplied them with fresh matter for$4$ 
117:141,08['  ]| thought$0$ and conversation during the rest$0#1$ of their lonely 
117:141,09['  ]| evening. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse talked over his alarms, and 
117:141,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was in$4$ spirits to$9$ persuade them away with all her 
117:141,11['  ]| usual promptitude. 
117:141,12['  ]| She now resolved to$9$ keep $EM#M$Harriet no$2$ longer in$4$ the dark$0$. 
117:141,13['  ]| She had reason$0$ to$9$ believe her nearly recovered from her 
117:141,14['  ]| cold$0$, and 
117:141,14@a   | it was desirable that$3$ she should have as much 
117:141,15@a   | time as possible for$4$ getting the better of her other complaint 
117:141,16@a   | before$4$ the gentleman's return$0$. 
117:141,16['  ]| She went to$4$ 
117:141,17['  ]| $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's the very next day, to$9$ undergo 
117:141,18['  ]| the necessary penance of communication; and a severe 
117:141,19['  ]| one it was. ~~ She had to$9$ destroy all the hopes$0$ which$6#1$ she 
117:141,20['  ]| had been so$5#1$ industriously feeding ~~ to$9$ appear in$4$ the 
117:141,21['  ]| ungracious character of the one preferred ~~ and acknowledge 
117:141,22['  ]| herself grossly mistaken and mis-judging in$4$ all her 
117:141,23['  ]| ideas on$4$ one subject$0$, all her observations, all her convictions, 
117:141,24['  ]| all her prophesies for$4$ the last$2$ six weeks. 
117:141,25['  ]| The confession completely renewed her first shame$0$ ~~ 
117:141,26['  ]| and the sight of $EM#M$Harriet's tears made her think that$3$ 
117:141,26@a   | she 
117:141,27@a   | should never be in$4$ charity with herself again. 
117:141,28@a   | $EM#M$Harriet bore$1#1$ the intelligence very well$5$ ~~ blaming 
117:141,29@a   | nobody ~~ and in$4$ every*thing testifying such an ingenuousness 
117:141,30@a   | of disposition and lowly opinion of herself, as must 
117:141,31@a   | appear with particular advantage at that$6#2$ moment to$4$ her 
117:141,32@a   | friend. 
117:141,33@a   | $EM#A$Emma was in$4$ the humour to$9$ value$1$ simplicity and 
117:141,34@a   | modesty to$4$ the utmost; and all that$6#1$ was amiable, all that$6#1$
117:141,35@a   | ought to$9$ be attaching, seemed on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's side$0$, not her 
117:141,36@a   | own$2$. $EM#M$Harriet did not consider herself as having any*thing 
117:141,37@a   | to$9$ complain of. 
117:141,37@m   | The affection of such a man as 
117:141,38@m   | $EM#H$Mr%*Elton would have been too$5#1$ great a distinction. ~~ She 
117:142,01@m   | never could have deserved him ~~ and nobody but so$5#1$ 
117:142,02@m   | partial and kind$2$ a friend as $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse would have 
117:142,03@m   | thought$1$ it possible. 
117:142,04['  ]| Her tears fell abundantly ~~ but her grief was so$5#1$ truly 
117:142,05['  ]| artless, that$3$ no$2$ dignity could have made it more respectable 
117:142,06['  ]| in$4$ $EM#A$Emma's eyes ~~ and she listened to$4$ her and tried 
117:142,07['  ]| to$9$ console her with all her heart and understanding ~~ 
117:142,08['  ]| really for$4$ the time convinced that$3$ 
117:142,08@a   | $EM#M$Harriet was the superior 
117:142,09@a   | creature of the two ~~ and that$3$ to$9$ resemble her would be 
117:142,10@a   | more for$4$ her own$2$ welfare and happiness than all that$6#1$ 
117:142,11@a   | genius or intelligence could do. 
117:142,12@a   | It was rather too$5#1$ late in$4$ the day to$9$ set$1$ about$5$ being$1$ simple-minded 
117:142,13@a   | and ignorant; 
117:142,13['  ]| but she left her with every previous 
117:142,14['  ]| resolution confirmed of 
117:142,14@a   | being$1$ humble$2$ and discreet, and 
117:142,15@a   | repressing imagination all the rest$0#1$ of her life. Her second$2$ 
117:142,16@a   | duty now, inferior only to$4$ her father's claims, was to$9$ 
117:142,17@a   | promote $EM#M$Harriet's comfort$0$, and endeavour$1$ to$9$ prove her 
117:142,18@a   | own$2$ affection in$4$ some better method than by$4$ match-making. 
117:142,19['  ]| She got her to$4$ Hartfield, and shewed her the 
117:142,20['  ]| most unvarying kindness, striving to$9$ occupy and amuse 
117:142,21['  ]| her, and by$4$ books and conversation, to$9$ drive$1$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
117:142,22['  ]| from her thoughts. 
117:142,23['  ]| Time, she knew, must be allowed for$4$ this being$1$ 
117:142,24['  ]| thoroughly done; and she could suppose herself but an 
117:142,25['  ]| indifferent judge$0$ of such matters in$4$ general$0$, and very 
117:142,26['  ]| inadequate to$9$ sympathize in$4$ an attachment to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
117:142,27['  ]| in$4$ particular; but it seemed to$4$ her reasonable that$3$ 
117:142,27@a   | at 
117:142,28@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's age, and with the entire extinction of all hope$0$, 
117:142,29@a   | such a progress might be made towards a state$0$ of composure 
117:142,30@a   | by$4$ the time of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's return$0$, as to$9$ allow them 
117:142,31@a   | all to$9$ meet$1$ again in$4$ the common$2$ routine of acquaintance, 
117:142,32@a   | without any danger of betraying sentiments or increasing 
117:142,33@a   | them. 
117:142,34['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet did think him all perfection, and maintain the 
117:142,35['  ]| non-existence of any*body equal$2$ to$4$ him in$4$ person or goodness 
117:142,36['  ]| ~~ and did, in$4$ truth, prove herself more resolutely in$4$ 
117:142,37['  ]| love$0$ than $EM#A$Emma had foreseen; but yet it appeared to$4$ her 
117:142,38['  ]| so$5#1$ natural$2$, so$5#1$ inevitable to$9$ strive against an inclination of 
117:143,01['  ]| that$6#2$ sort \unrequited\, that$3$ she could not comprehend its 
117:143,02['  ]| continuing very long in$4$ equal$2$ force$0$. 
117:143,03['  ]| If $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, on$4$ his return$0$, made his own$2$ indifference 
117:143,04['  ]| as evident and indubitable as she could not doubt$1$ he would 
117:143,05['  ]| anxiously do, she could not imagine $EM#M$Harriet's persisting 
117:143,06['  ]| to$9$ place$1$ her happiness in$4$ the sight or the recollection of 
117:143,07['  ]| him. 
117:143,08@a   | Their being$1$ fixed, so$5#1$ absolutely fixed, in$4$ the same place$0$, 
117:143,09@a   | was bad for$4$ each, for$4$ all three. Not one of them had the 
117:143,10@a   | power of removal, or of effecting any material$2$ change$0$ of 
117:143,11@a   | society. They must encounter each other, and make$1$ the 
117:143,12@a   | best of it. 
117:143,13@a   | $EM#M$Harriet was further unfortunate in$4$ the tone of her 
117:143,14@a   | companions at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's; $EM#H$Mr%*Elton being$1$ the 
117:143,15@a   | adoration of all the teachers and great girls in$4$ the school; 
117:143,16@a   | and it must be at Hartfield only that$3$ she could have any 
117:143,17@a   | chance$0$ of hearing him spoken of with cooling moderation 
117:143,18@a   | or repellant truth. Where the wound$1#2$ had been given, there 
117:143,19@a   | must the cure$0$ be found if anywhere; 
117:143,19['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma felt that$3$, 
117:143,20@a   | till she saw her in$4$ the way of cure$0$, there could be no$2$ true 
117:143,21@a   | peace for$4$ herself. 
118:144,01['  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill did not come. When the time 
118:144,02['  ]| proposed drew near$5$, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's fears were justified in$4$ 
118:144,03['  ]| the arrival of a letter of excuse$0$. For$4$ the present$0#1$, he could 
118:144,04['  ]| not be spared, to$9$ his 
118:144,04[E  ]| "very great mortification and 
118:144,05[E  ]| regret$0$; but still$5$ he looked forward$5$ with the hope$0$ of 
118:144,06[E  ]| coming to$4$ Randalls at no$2$ distant period." 
118:144,07['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was exceedingly disappointed ~~ much 
118:144,08['  ]| more disappointed, in$4$ fact, than her husband, though her 
118:144,09['  ]| dependence on$4$ seeing the young man had been so$5#1$ much 
118:144,10['  ]| more sober: but a sanguine temper, though for*ever 
118:144,11['  ]| expecting more good than occurs, does not always pay$1$ 
118:144,12['  ]| for$4$ its hopes$0$ by$4$ any proportionate depression. It soon 
118:144,13['  ]| flies over the present$2$ failure, and begins to$9$ hope$1$ again. 
118:144,14['  ]| For$4$ half an hour $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was surprized and sorry; 
118:144,15['  ]| but then he began to$9$ perceive that$3$ 
118:144,15@n   | $EM#E$Frank's coming two or 
118:144,16@n   | three months later would be a much better plan; better 
118:144,17@n   | time of year; better weather; and that$3$ he would be 
118:144,18@n   | able, without any doubt$0$, to$9$ stay$1$ considerably longer with 
118:144,19@n   | them than if he had come sooner. 
118:144,20['  ]| These feelings rapidly restored his comfort$0$, while$3$ 
118:144,21['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, of a more apprehensive disposition, foresaw 
118:144,22['  ]| nothing but a repetition of excuses and delays; and after$4$ 
118:144,23['  ]| all her concern$0$ for$4$ what her husband was to$9$ suffer, 
118:144,24['  ]| suffered a great deal$0$ more herself. 
118:144,25['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was not at this time in$4$ a state$0$ of spirits to$9$ care$1$ 
118:144,26['  ]| really about$4$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill's not coming, except as 
118:144,27['  ]| a disappointment at Randalls. 
118:144,27@a   | The acquaintance at 
118:144,28@a   | present$0#1$ had no$2$ charm$0$ for$4$ her. She wanted, rather, to$9$ be 
118:144,29@a   | quiet$2$, and out$5$ of temptation; 
118:144,29['  ]| but still$5$, as it was desirable 
118:144,30['  ]| that$3$ she should appear, in$4$ general$0$, like$4$ her usual self, she 
118:144,31['  ]| took care$0$ to$9$ express$1$ as much interest$0$ in$4$ the circumstance, 
118:144,32['  ]| and enter as warmly into $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's disappointment, 
118:144,33['  ]| as might naturally belong to$4$ their friendship. 
118:145,01['  ]| She was the first to$9$ announce it to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; and 
118:145,02['  ]| exclaimed quite as much as was necessary, (or, being$1$ 
118:145,03['  ]| acting a part$0$, perhaps rather more,) at the conduct$0$ of the 
118:145,04['  ]| $EM#W$Churchills, in$4$ keeping him away. She then proceeded to$9$ 
118:145,05['  ]| say a good deal$0$ more than she felt, of 
118:145,05@a   | the advantage of 
118:145,06@a   | such an addition to$4$ their confined society in$4$ Surry; the 
118:145,07@a   | pleasure of looking at some*body new; the gala-day to$4$ 
118:145,08@a   | Highbury entire, which$6#1$ the sight of him would have made; 
118:145,09['  ]| and ending with reflections on$4$ the $EM#W$Churchills again, found 
118:145,10['  ]| herself directly involved in$4$ a disagreement with $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; 
118:145,11['  ]| and, to$4$ her great amusement, perceived that$3$ 
118:145,12['  ]| she was taking the other side$0$ of the question$0$ from her real 
118:145,13['  ]| opinion, and making use$0$ of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's arguments 
118:145,14['  ]| against herself. 
118:145,15[B  ]| "The $EM#W$Churchills are very likely in$4$ fault," 
118:145,15['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
118:145,16['  ]| coolly; 
118:145,16[B  ]| "but I dare$1#2$ say he might come if he 
118:145,17[B  ]| would." 
118:145,18[A  ]| "I do not know why you should say so$5#2$. He wishes$1$ 
118:145,19[A  ]| exceedingly to$9$ come; but his uncle and aunt will$1$ not 
118:145,20[A  ]| spare$1$ him." 
118:145,21[B  ]| "I cannot believe that$3$ he has not the power of coming, 
118:145,22[B  ]| if he made a point$0$ of it. It is too$5#1$ unlikely, for$4$ me to$9$ 
118:145,23[B  ]| believe it without proof." 
118:145,24[A  ]| "How odd you are! What has $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill done, 
118:145,25[A  ]| to$9$ make$1$ you suppose him such an unnatural creature?" 
118:145,26[B  ]| "I am not supposing him at all an unnatural creature, 
118:145,27[B  ]| in$4$ suspecting that$3$ he may$1$ have learnt to$9$ be above$4$ his 
118:145,28[B  ]| connections, and to$9$ care$1$ very little for$4$ any*thing but his 
118:145,29[B  ]| own$2$ pleasure, from living with those who$6#1$ have always set$1$ 
118:145,30[B  ]| him the example of it. It is a great deal$0$ more natural$2$ 
118:145,31[B  ]| than one could wish$1$, that$3$ a young man, brought up$5$ by$4$ 
118:145,32[B  ]| those who$6#1$ are proud, luxurious, and selfish, should be 
118:145,33[B  ]| proud, luxurious, and selfish too$5#2$. If $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had 
118:145,34[B  ]| wanted to$9$ see his father, he would have contrived it 
118:145,35[B  ]| between September and January. A man at his age ~~ 
118:145,36[B  ]| what is he? ~~ three or four-and-twenty ~~ cannot be without 
118:145,37[B  ]| the means$0$ of doing as much as that$6#2$. It is impossible." 
118:145,38[A  ]| "That's easily said, and easily felt by$4$ you, who$6#1$ have 
118:146,01[A  ]| always been your own$2$ master. You are the worst judge$0$ 
118:146,02[A  ]| in$4$ the world, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, of the difficulties of dependence. 
118:146,03[A  ]| You do not know what it is to$9$ have tempers to$9$ 
118:146,04[A  ]| manage." 
118:146,05[B  ]| "It is not to$9$ be conceived that$3$ a man of three or four-and-twenty 
118:146,06[B  ]| should not have liberty of mind$0$ or limb to$4$ 
118:146,07[B  ]| that$6#2$ amount. He cannot want$1$ money ~~ he cannot want$1$ 
118:146,08[B  ]| leisure. We know, on$4$ the contrary, that$3$ he has so$5#1$ much 
118:146,09[B  ]| of both, that$3$ he is glad to$9$ get rid of them at the idlest 
118:146,10[B  ]| haunts in$4$ the kingdom. We hear of him for*ever at some 
118:146,11[B  ]| watering-place or other. A little while$0$ ago, he was at 
118:146,12[B  ]| Weymouth. This proves that$3$ he can leave$1$ the $EM#W$Churchills ."
118:146,13[A  ]| "Yes, sometimes he can." 
118:146,14[B  ]| "And those times are, whenever he thinks it worth his 
118:146,15[B  ]| while$0$; whenever there is any temptation of pleasure." 
118:146,16[A  ]| "It is very unfair to$9$ judge$1$ of any*body's conduct$0$, 
118:146,17[A  ]| without an intimate$2$ knowledge of their situation. Nobody, 
118:146,18[A  ]| who$6#1$ has not been in$4$ the interior of a family, can say what 
118:146,19[A  ]| the difficulties of any individual of that$6#2$ family may$1$ be. 
118:146,20[A  ]| We ought to$9$ be acquainted with Enscombe, and with 
118:146,21[A  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's temper, before$3$ we pretend to$9$ decide upon$4$ 
118:146,22[A  ]| what her nephew can do. He may$1$, at times, be able to$9$ 
118:146,23[A  ]| do a great deal$0$ more than he can at others." 
118:146,24[B  ]| "There is one thing, $EM#A$Emma, which$6#1$ a man can always 
118:146,25[B  ]| do, if he chuses, and that$6#2$ is, his duty; not by$4$ mano*euvring 
118:146,26[B  ]| and finessing, but by$4$ vigour and resolution. It is $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's 
118:146,27[B  ]| duty to$9$ pay$1$ this attention to$4$ his father. He 
118:146,28[B  ]| knows it to$9$ be so$5#2$, by$4$ his promises$0$ and messages; but if 
118:146,29[B  ]| he wished to$9$ do it, it might be done. A man who$6#1$ felt 
118:146,30[B  ]| rightly would say at once, simply and resolutely, to$4$ 
118:146,31[B  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill ~~ ""Every sacrifice$0$ of mere pleasure you will$1$ 
118:146,32[B  ]| always find me ready to$9$ make$1$ to$4$ your convenience; but 
118:146,33[B  ]| I must go and see my father immediately. I know he 
118:146,34[B  ]| would be hurt by$4$ my failing in$4$ such a mark$0$ of respect$0$ to$4$ 
118:146,35[B  ]| him on$4$ the present$2$ occasion$0$. I shall, therefore, set$1$ off 
118:146,36[B  ]| to-morrow."" ~~ If he would say so$5#2$ to$4$ her at once, in$4$ the 
118:146,37[B  ]| tone of decision becoming a man, there would be no$2$ 
118:146,38[B  ]| opposition made to$4$ his going." 
118:147,01[A  ]| "No$7$," 
118:147,01['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, laughing; 
118:147,01[A  ]| "but perhaps there 
118:147,02[A  ]| might be some made to$4$ his coming back$5$ again. Such 
118:147,03[A  ]| language for$4$ a young man entirely dependent, to$9$ use$1$! ~~ 
118:147,04[A  ]| Nobody but you, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, would imagine it possible. 
118:147,05[A  ]| But you have not an idea of what is requisite in$4$ situations 
118:147,06[A  ]| directly opposite to$4$ your own$2$. $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill to$9$ 
118:147,07[A  ]| be making such a speech as that$6#2$ to$4$ the uncle and aunt, 
118:147,08[A  ]| who$6#1$ have brought him up$5$, and are to$9$ provide for$4$ him! ~~ 
118:147,09[A  ]| Standing up$5$ in$4$ the middle of the room, I suppose, and 
118:147,10[A  ]| speaking as loud as he could! ~~ How can you imagine such 
118:147,11[A  ]| conduct$0$ practicable?" 
118:147,12[B  ]| "Depend upon$4$ it, $EM#A$Emma, a sensible$2#2$ man would find 
118:147,13[B  ]| no$2$ difficulty in$4$ it. He would feel himself in$4$ the right$0$; 
118:147,14[B  ]| and the declaration ~~ made, of course$8$, as a man of sense 
118:147,15[B  ]| would make$1$ it, in$4$ a proper manner ~~ would do him more 
118:147,16[B  ]| good, raise him higher, fix his interest$0$ stronger with the 
118:147,17[B  ]| people he depended on$5$, than all that$6#1$ a line of shifts and 
118:147,18[B  ]| expedients can ever do. Respect$0$ would be added to$4$ 
118:147,19[B  ]| affection. They would feel that$3$ they could trust$1$ him; 
118:147,20[B  ]| that$3$ the nephew, who$6#1$ had done rightly by$4$ his father, 
118:147,21[B  ]| would do rightly by$4$ them; for$3$ they know, as well$5$ as he 
118:147,22[B  ]| does, as well$5$ as all the world must know, that$3$ he ought 
118:147,23[B  ]| to$9$ pay$1$ this visit$0$ to$4$ his father; and while$4$ meanly exerting 
118:147,24[B  ]| their power to$9$ delay$1$ it, are in$4$ their hearts not thinking 
118:147,25[B  ]| the better of him for$4$ submitting to$4$ their whims. Respect$0$ 
118:147,26[B  ]| for$4$ right$2#1$ conduct$0$ is felt by$4$ every*body. If he would act$1$ 
118:147,27[B  ]| in$4$ this sort of manner, on$4$ principle, consistently, regularly, 
118:147,28[B  ]| their little minds would bend$1$ to$4$ his." 
118:147,29[A  ]| "I rather doubt$1$ that$6#2$. You are very fond of bending 
118:147,30[A  ]| little minds; but where little minds belong to$4$ rich people 
118:147,31[A  ]| in$4$ authority, I think they have a knack of swelling out$5$, 
118:147,32[A  ]| till they are quite as unmanageable as great ones. I can 
118:147,33[A  ]| imagine, that$3$ if you, as you are, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, were to$9$ be 
118:147,34[A  ]| transported and placed all at once in$4$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill's 
118:147,35[A  ]| situation, you would be able to$9$ say and do just$5$ what you 
118:147,36[A  ]| have been recommending for$4$ him; and it might have 
118:147,37[A  ]| a very good effect$0$. The $EM#W$Churchills might not have a word 
118:147,38[A  ]| to$9$ say in$4$ return$0$; but then, you would have no$2$ habits of 
118:148,01[A  ]| early obedience and long observance to$9$ break through$4$. 
118:148,02[A  ]| To$4$ him who$6#1$ has, it might not be so$5#1$ easy to$9$ burst$1$ forth 
118:148,03[A  ]| at once into perfect$2$ independence, and set$1$ all their claims 
118:148,04[A  ]| on$4$ his gratitude and regard$0$ at nought. He may$1$ have as 
118:148,05[A  ]| strong a sense of what would be right$2#1$, as you can have, 
118:148,06[A  ]| without being$1$ so$5#1$ equal$2$ under particular circumstances 
118:148,07[A  ]| to$9$ act$1$ up$5$ to$4$ it." 
118:148,08[B  ]| "Then, it would not be so$5#1$ strong a sense. If it failed 
118:148,09[B  ]| to$9$ produce equal$2$ exertion, it could not be an equal$2$ 
118:148,10[B  ]| conviction." 
118:148,11[A  ]| "Oh! the difference of situation and habit! I wish$1$ 
118:148,12[A  ]| you would try to$9$ understand what an amiable young man 
118:148,13[A  ]| may$1$ be likely to$9$ feel in$4$ directly opposing those, whom$6#1$ as 
118:148,14[A  ]| child and boy he has been looking up$5$ to$4$ all his life." 
118:148,15[B  ]| "Your amiable young man is a very weak young man, 
118:148,16[B  ]| if this be the first occasion$0$ of his carrying through$5$ a resolution 
118:148,17[B  ]| to$9$ do right$2#1$ against the will$0$ of others. It ought to$9$ 
118:148,18[B  ]| have been an habit with him by$4$ this time, of following his 
118:148,19[B  ]| duty, instead of consulting expediency. I can allow for$4$ 
118:148,20[B  ]| the fears of the child, but not of the man. As he became 
118:148,21[B  ]| rational, he ought to$9$ have roused himself and shaken off 
118:148,22[B  ]| all that$6#1$ was unworthy in$4$ their authority. He ought to$9$ 
118:148,23[B  ]| have opposed the first attempt$0$ on$4$ their side$0$ to$9$ make$1$ him 
118:148,24[B  ]| slight$1$ his father. Had he begun as he ought, there would 
118:148,25[B  ]| have been no$2$ difficulty now." 
118:148,26[A  ]| "We shall never agree about$4$ him," 
118:148,26['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma; 
118:148,26[A  ]| "but 
118:148,27[A  ]| that$6#2$ is nothing extraordinary. I have not the least idea 
118:148,28[A  ]| of his being$1$ a weak young man: I feel sure that$3$ he is not. 
118:148,29[A  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston would not be blind$2$ to$4$ folly, though in$4$ his own$2$ 
118:148,30[A  ]| son; but he is very likely to$9$ have a more yielding, complying, 
118:148,31[A  ]| mild disposition than would suit$1$ your notions of 
118:148,32[A  ]| man's perfection. I dare$1#2$ say he has; and though it may$1$ 
118:148,33[A  ]| cut$1$ him off from some advantages, it will$1$ secure$1$ him 
118:148,34[A  ]| many others." 
118:148,35[B  ]| "Yes; all the advantages of sitting still$2$ when he ought 
118:148,36[B  ]| to$9$ move$1$, and of leading a life of mere idle pleasure, and 
118:148,37[B  ]| fancying himself extremely expert in$4$ finding excuses for$4$ 
118:148,38[B  ]| it. He can sit down$5$ and write a fine flourishing letter, full 
118:149,01[B  ]| of professions and falsehoods, and persuade himself that$3$ 
118:149,02[B  ]| he has hit upon$4$ the very best method in$4$ the world of 
118:149,03[B  ]| preserving peace at home and preventing his father's 
118:149,04[B  ]| having any right$0$ to$9$ complain. His letters disgust$1$ 
118:149,05[B  ]| me." 
118:149,06[A  ]| "Your feelings are singular. They seem to$9$ satisfy 
118:149,07[A  ]| every*body else." 
118:149,08[B  ]| "I suspect they do not satisfy $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. They 
118:149,09[B  ]| hardly can satisfy a woman of her good sense and quick$2$ 
118:149,10[B  ]| feelings: standing in$4$ a mother's place$0$, but without 
118:149,11[B  ]| a mother's affection to$9$ blind$1$ her. It is on$4$ her account$0$ 
118:149,12[B  ]| that$3$ attention to$4$ Randalls is doubly due$2$, and she must 
118:149,13[B  ]| doubly feel the omission. Had she been a person of 
118:149,14[B  ]| consequence herself, he would have come I dare$1#2$ say; and 
118:149,15[B  ]| it would not have signified whether he did or no$2$. Can you 
118:149,16[B  ]| think your friend behind-hand in$4$ these sort of considerations? 
118:149,17[B  ]| Do you suppose she does not often say all this to$4$ 
118:149,18[B  ]| herself? No$7$, $EM#A$Emma, your amiable young man can be 
118:149,19[B  ]| amiable only in$4$ French, not in$4$ English. He may$1$ be very 
118:149,20[B  ]| ""aimable,"" have very good manners, and be very agreeable; 
118:149,21[B  ]| but he can have no$2$ English delicacy towards the 
118:149,22[B  ]| feelings of other people: nothing really amiable about$4$ 
118:149,23[B  ]| him." 
118:149,24[A  ]| "You seem determined to$9$ think ill of him." 
118:149,25[B  ]| "Me! ~~ not at all," 
118:149,25['  ]| replied $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, rather 
118:149,26['  ]| displeased; 
118:149,26[B  ]| "I do not want$1$ to$9$ think ill of him. I should 
118:149,27[B  ]| be as ready to$9$ acknowledge his merits as any other man; 
118:149,28[B  ]| but I hear of none, except what are merely personal; that$3$ 
118:149,29[B  ]| he is well$5$ grown and good-looking, with smooth$2$, plausible 
118:149,30[B  ]| manners." 
118:149,31[A  ]| "Well$7$, if he have nothing else to$9$ recommend him, he 
118:149,32[A  ]| will$1$ be a treasure at Highbury. We do not often look$1$ 
118:149,33[A  ]| upon$4$ fine young men, well-bred and agreeable. We must 
118:149,34[A  ]| not be nice and ask for$4$ all the virtues into the bargain. 
118:149,35[A  ]| Cannot you imagine, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, what a \sensation$0#2$\ his 
118:149,36[A  ]| coming will$1$ produce? There will$1$ be but one subject$0$ 
118:149,37[A  ]| throughout the parishes of Donwell and Highbury; but 
118:149,38[A  ]| one interest$0$ ~~ one object$0$ of curiosity; it will$1$ be all 
$EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill; 
118:150,01[A  ]| we shall think and speak of nobody 
118:150,02[A  ]| else." 
118:150,03[B  ]| "You will$1$ excuse$1$ my being$1$ so$5#1$ much overpowered. If 
118:150,04[B  ]| I find him conversible, I shall be glad of his acquaintance; 
118:150,05[B  ]| but if he is only a chattering coxcomb, he will$1$ not occupy 
118:150,06[B  ]| much of my time or thoughts." 
118:150,07[A  ]| "My idea of him is, that$3$ he can adapt his conversation 
118:150,08[A  ]| to$4$ the taste of every*body, and has the power as well$5$ as 
118:150,09[A  ]| the wish$0$ of being$1$ universally agreeable. To$4$ you, he will$1$ 
118:150,10[A  ]| talk$1$ of farming; to$4$ me, of drawing or music; and so$5#2$ on$5$ 
118:150,11[A  ]| to$4$ every*body, having that$6#2$ general$2$ information on$4$ all 
118:150,12[A  ]| subjects which$6#1$ will$1$ enable him to$9$ follow the lead$0#1$, or take 
118:150,13[A  ]| the lead$0#1$, just$5$ as propriety may$1$ require, and to$9$ speak 
118:150,14[A  ]| extremely well$5$ on$4$ each; that$6#2$ is my idea of him." 
118:150,15[B  ]| "And mine$6$," 
118:150,15['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley warmly, 
118:150,15[B  ]| "is, that$3$ if 
118:150,16[B  ]| he turn$1$ out$5$ any*thing like$4$ it, he will$1$ be the most insufferable 
118:150,17[B  ]| fellow breathing! What! at three-and-twenty to$9$ 
118:150,18[B  ]| be the king of his company ~~ the great man ~~ the practised 
118:150,19[B  ]| politician, who$6#1$ is to$9$ read every*body's character, and 
118:150,20[B  ]| make$1$ every*body's talents conduce to$4$ the display$0$ of his 
118:150,21[B  ]| own$2$ superiority; to$9$ be dispensing his flatteries around$5$, 
118:150,22[B  ]| that$3$ he may$1$ make$1$ all appear like$4$ fools compared with 
118:150,23[B  ]| himself! My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, your own$2$ good sense could 
118:150,24[B  ]| not endure such a puppy when it came to$4$ the point$0$." 
118:150,25[A  ]| "I will$1$ say no$2$ more about$4$ him," 
118:150,25['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
118:150,25[A  ]| "you 
118:150,26[A  ]| turn$1$ every*thing to$4$ evil. We are both prejudiced; you 
118:150,27[A  ]| against, I for$4$ him; and we have no$2$ chance$0$ of agreeing 
118:150,28[A  ]| till he is really here." 
118:150,29[B  ]| "Prejudiced! I am not prejudiced." 
118:150,30[A  ]| "But I am very much, and without being$1$ at all 
118:150,31[A  ]| ashamed of it. My love$0$ for$4$ $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston gives me 
118:150,32[A  ]| a decided prejudice in$4$ his favour$0$." 
118:150,33[B  ]| "He is a person I never think of from one month's end$0$ 
118:150,34[B  ]| to$4$ another," 
118:150,34['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, with a degree of vexation, 
118:150,35['  ]| which$6#1$ made $EM#A$Emma immediately talk$1$ of something else, 
118:150,36['  ]| though she could not comprehend why he should be 
118:150,37['  ]| angry. 
118:150,38@a   | To$9$ take a dislike$0$ to$4$ a young man, only because he 
118:151,01@a   | appeared to$9$ be of a different disposition from himself, was 
118:151,02@a   | unworthy the real liberality of mind$0$ which$6#1$ she was 
118:151,03@a   | always used to$9$ acknowledge in$4$ him; for$3$ with all the high 
118:151,04@a   | opinion of himself, which$6#1$ she had often laid to$4$ his charge$0$, 
118:151,05@a   | she had never before$5$ for$4$ a moment supposed it could 
118:151,06@a   | make$1$ him unjust to$4$ the merit$0$ of another. 
201:155,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma and $EM#M$Harriet had been walking together one morning, 
201:155,02['  ]| and, in$4$ $EM#A$Emma's opinion, been talking enough of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
201:155,03['  ]| for$4$ that$6#2$ day. She could not think that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's solace 
201:155,04['  ]| or her own$2$ sins required more; and she was therefore 
201:155,05['  ]| industriously getting rid of the subject$0$ as they returned; ~~ 
201:155,06['  ]| but it burst$1$ out$5$ again when she thought$1$ she had succeeded, 
201:155,07['  ]| and after$4$ speaking some time of what the poor must suffer 
201:155,08['  ]| in$4$ winter, and receiving no$2$ other answer$0$ than a very 
201:155,09['  ]| plaintive ~~ 
201:155,09[M  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton is so$5#1$ good to$4$ the poor!" 
201:155,09['  ]| she found 
201:155,10['  ]| something else must be done. 
201:155,11['  ]| They were just$5$ approaching the house where lived $EM#C$Mrs% 
201:155,12['  ]| and $EM#D$Miss*Bates. She determined to$9$ call$1$ upon$4$ them and 
201:155,13['  ]| seek safety in$4$ numbers. There was always sufficient reason$0$ 
201:155,14['  ]| for$4$ such an attention; $EM#C$Mrs% and $EM#D$Miss*Bates loved to$9$ be 
201:155,15['  ]| called on$5$, and she knew she was considered by$4$ the very 
201:155,16['  ]| few who$6#1$ presumed ever to$9$ see imperfection in$4$ her, as 
201:155,17['  ]| rather negligent in$4$ that$6#2$ respect$0$, and as not contributing 
201:155,18['  ]| what she ought to$4$ the stock of their scanty comforts. 
201:155,19['  ]| She had had many a hint$0$ from $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and some 
201:155,20['  ]| from her own$2$ heart, as to$4$ her deficiency ~~ but none were 
201:155,21['  ]| equal$2$ to$9$ counteract the persuasion of its being$1$ 
201:155,21@a   | very 
201:155,22@a   | disagreeable, ~~ a waste$0$ of time ~~ tiresome women ~~ and all 
201:155,23@a   | the horror of being$1$ in$4$ danger of falling in$5$ with the second$2$ 
201:155,24@a   | rate$0$ and third rate$0$ of Highbury, who$6#1$ were calling on$4$ them 
201:155,25@a   | for*ever, 
201:155,25['  ]| and therefore she seldom went near$4$ them. But 
201:155,26['  ]| now she made the sudden$2$ resolution of not passing their 
201:155,27['  ]| door without going in$5$ ~~ observing, as she proposed it to$4$ 
201:155,28['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, that$3$, 
201:155,28@a   | as well$5$ as she could calculate, they were 
201:155,29@a   | just$5$ now quite safe from any letter from $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. 
201:155,30['  ]| The house belonged to$4$ people in$4$ business. $EM#C$Mrs% and 
201:155,31['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates occupied the drawing-room floor; and there, 
201:155,32['  ]| in$4$ the very moderate*sized apartment, which$6#1$ was every*thing 
201:155,33['  ]| to$4$ them, the visitors were most cordially and even$5$ 
201:156,01['  ]| gratefully welcomed; the quiet$2$ neat old lady, who$6#1$ with 
201:156,02['  ]| her knitting was seated in$4$ the warmest corner, wanting 
201:156,03['  ]| even$5$ to$9$ give up$5$ her place$0$ to$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, and her 
201:156,04['  ]| more active, talking daughter, almost ready to$9$ overpower 
201:156,05['  ]| them with care$0$ and kindness, thanks for$4$ their visit$0$, 
201:156,06['  ]| solicitude for$4$ their shoes, anxious inquiries after$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
201:156,07['  ]| health, cheerful communications about$4$ her 
201:156,08['  ]| mother's, and sweet-cake from the beaufet ~~ 
201:156,08[D   | "$EM#G$Mrs%*Cole 
201:156,09[D   | had just$5$ been there, just$5$ called in$5$ for$4$ ten minutes, and 
201:156,10[D   | had been so$5#1$ good as to$9$ sit an hour with them, and \she\ had 
201:156,11[D   | taken a piece of cake and been so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ say she liked it 
201:156,12[D   | very much; and therefore she hoped $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse and 
201:156,13[D   | $EM#M$Miss*Smith would do them the favour$0$ to$9$ eat a piece too$5#2$." 
201:156,14['  ]| The mention$0$ of the $EM#F1$Coles was sure to$9$ be followed by$4$ 
201:156,15['  ]| that$6#2$ of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. There was intimacy between them, 
201:156,16['  ]| and $EM#F$Mr%*Cole had heard from $EM#H$Mr%*Elton since his going 
201:156,17['  ]| away. $EM#A$Emma knew what was coming; 
201:156,17@a   | they must have 
201:156,18@a   | the letter over again, and settle how long he had been 
201:156,19@a   | gone, and how much he was engaged in$4$ company, and 
201:156,20@a   | what a favourite$0$ he was wherever he went, and how full 
201:156,21@a   | the Master of the Ceremonies' ball$0#2$ had been; 
201:156,21['  ]| and she 
201:156,22['  ]| went through$4$ it very well$5$, with all the interest$0$ and all the 
201:156,23['  ]| commendation that$6#1$ could be requisite, and always putting 
201:156,24['  ]| forward$5$ to$9$ prevent $EM#M$Harriet's being$1$ obliged to$9$ say a word. 
201:156,25['  ]| This she had been prepared for$4$ when she entered the 
201:156,26['  ]| house; but meant, having once talked him handsomely 
201:156,27['  ]| over, to$9$ be no$2$ farther incommoded by$4$ any troublesome 
201:156,28['  ]| topic, and to$9$ wander at large amongst all the Mistresses 
201:156,29['  ]| and Misses of Highbury and their card-parties. She had 
201:156,30['  ]| not been prepared to$9$ have $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax succeed $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; 
201:156,31['  ]| but he was actually hurried off by$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates, she jumped 
201:156,32['  ]| away from him at last$0$ abruptly to$4$ the $EM#F1$Coles, to$9$ usher in$5$ 
201:156,33['  ]| a letter from her niece. 
201:156,34[D  ]| "Oh! yes ~~ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, I understood ~~ certainly as to$4$ 
201:156,35[D  ]| dancing ~~ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole was telling me that$3$ dancing at the 
201:156,36[D  ]| rooms at Bath$0#1$ was ~~ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole was so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ sit some 
201:156,37[D  ]| time with us, talking of $EM#J$Jane; for$3$ as soon as she came in$5$, 
201:156,38[D  ]| she began inquiring after$4$ her, $EM#J$Jane is so$5#1$ very great 
201:157,01[D  ]| a favourite$0$ there. Whenever she is with us, $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole 
201:157,02[D  ]| does not know how to$9$ shew$1$ her kindness enough; and 
201:157,03[D  ]| I must say that$3$ $EM#J$Jane deserves it as much as anybody can. 
201:157,04[D  ]| And so$3$ she began inquiring after$4$ her directly, saying, 
201:157,05@g   | ""I know you cannot have heard from $EM#J$Jane lately, because 
201:157,06@g   | it is not her time for$4$ writing;"" 
201:157,06[D  ]| and when I immediately 
201:157,07[D  ]| said, ""But indeed we have, we had a letter this very 
201:157,08[D  ]| morning,"" I do not know that$3$ I ever saw anybody more 
201:157,09[D  ]| surprized. 
201:157,09@g   | ""Have you, upon$4$ your honour$0$!"" 
201:157,09[D  ]| said she; 
201:157,10@g   | "well$7$, that$6#2$ is quite unexpected. Do let me hear what 
201:157,11@g   | she says." 
201:157,12['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's politeness was at hand$0$ directly, to$9$ say, with 
201:157,13['  ]| smiling interest$0$ ~~ 
201:157,14[A  ]| "Have you heard from $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax so$5#1$ lately? I am 
201:157,15[A  ]| extremely happy. I hope$1$ she is well$5$?" 
201:157,16[D  ]| "Thank you. You are so$5#1$ kind$2$!" 
201:157,16['  ]| replied the happily 
201:157,17['  ]| deceived aunt, while$4$ eagerly hunting for$4$ the letter. ~~ 
201:157,17[D  ]| "Oh! 
201:157,18[D  ]| here it is. I was sure it could not be far off; but I had 
201:157,19[D  ]| put my huswife upon$4$ it, you see, without being$1$ aware, 
201:157,20[D  ]| and so$3$ it was quite hid, but I had it in$4$ my hand$0$ so$5#1$ very 
201:157,21[D  ]| lately that$3$ I was almost sure it must be on$4$ the table. I was 
201:157,22[D  ]| reading it to$4$ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole, and since she went away, I was 
201:157,23[D  ]| reading it again to$4$ my mother, for$3$ it is such a pleasure to$4$ 
201:157,24[D  ]| her ~~ a letter from $EM#J$Jane ~~ that$3$ she can never hear it often 
201:157,25[D  ]| enough; so$3$ I knew it could not be far off, and here it is, 
201:157,26[D  ]| only just$5$ under my huswife ~~ and since you are so$5#1$ kind$2$ as 
201:157,27[D  ]| to$9$ wish$1$ to$9$ hear what she says; ~~ but, first of all, I really 
201:157,28[D  ]| must, in$4$ justice to$4$ $EM#J$Jane, apologise for$4$ her writing so$5#1$ short 
201:157,29[D  ]| a letter ~~ only two pages you see ~~ hardly two ~~ and in$4$ 
201:157,30[D  ]| general$0$ she fills the whole$2$ paper and crosses half. My 
201:157,31[D  ]| mother often wonders$1$ that$3$ I can make$1$ it out$5$ so$5#1$ well$5$. 
201:157,32[D  ]| She often says, when the letter is first opened, 
201:157,32@c   | "Well$7$, 
201:157,33@c   | $EM#D$Hetty, now I think you will$1$ be put to$4$ it to$9$ make$1$ out$5$ all 
201:157,34@c   | that$6#2$ chequer-work" ~~ 
201:157,34[D  ]| don't you, ma'am? ~~ And then I tell 
201:157,35[D  ]| her, I am sure she would contrive to$9$ make$1$ it out$5$ herself, 
201:157,36[D  ]| if she had nobody to$9$ do it for$4$ her ~~ every word of it ~~ I am 
201:157,37[D  ]| sure she would pore over it till she had made out$5$ every 
201:157,38[D  ]| word. And, indeed, though my mother's eyes are not so$5#1$ 
201:158,01[D  ]| good as they were, she can see amazingly well$5$ still$5$, thank 
201:158,02[D  ]| God! with the help$0$ of spectacles. It is such a blessing! 
201:158,03[D  ]| My mother's are really very good indeed. $EM#J$Jane often 
201:158,04[D  ]| says, when she is here, 
201:158,04@j   | ""I am sure, grandmama, you must 
201:158,05@j   | have had very strong eyes to$9$ see as you do ~~ and so$5#1$ much 
201:158,06@j   | fine work$0$ as you have done too$5#2$! ~~ I only wish$1$ my eyes 
201:158,07@j   | may$1$ last$1$ me as well$5$."" 
201:158,08['  ]| All this spoken extremely fast obliged $EM#D$Miss*Bates to$9$ 
201:158,09['  ]| stop$1$ for$4$ breath; and $EM#A$Emma said something very civil 
201:158,10['  ]| about$4$ the excellence of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's handwriting. 
201:158,11[D  ]| "You are extremely kind$2$," 
201:158,11['  ]| replied $EM#D$Miss*Bates highly 
201:158,12['  ]| gratified; 
201:158,12[D  ]| "you who$6#1$ are such a judge$0$, and write so$5#1$ 
201:158,13[D  ]| beautifully yourself. I am sure there is nobody's praise$0$ 
201:158,14[D  ]| that$6#1$ could give us so$5#1$ much pleasure as $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's. 
201:158,15[D  ]| My mother does not hear; she is a little deaf you know. 
201:158,16[D  ]| Ma'am," 
201:158,16['  ]| addressing her, 
201:158,16[D  ]| "do you hear what $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
201:158,17[D  ]| is so$5#1$ obliging to$9$ say about$4$ $EM#J$Jane's handwriting?" 
201:158,18['  ]| And $EM#A$Emma had the advantage of hearing her own$2$ silly 
201:158,19['  ]| compliment$0$ repeated twice over before$3$ the good old lady 
201:158,20['  ]| could comprehend it. She was pondering, in$4$ the mean*while, 
201:158,21['  ]| upon$4$ the possibility, without seeming very rude, 
201:158,22['  ]| of making her escape$0$ from $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's letter, and had 
201:158,23['  ]| almost resolved on$4$ hurrying away directly under some 
201:158,24['  ]| slight$2$ excuse$0$, when $EM#D$Miss*Bates turned to$4$ her again and 
201:158,25['  ]| seized her attention. 
201:158,26[D  ]| "My mother's deafness is very trifling you see ~~ just$5$ 
201:158,27[D  ]| nothing at all. By$4$ only raising my voice, and saying 
201:158,28[D  ]| anything two or three times over, she is sure to$9$ hear; but 
201:158,29[D  ]| then she is used to$4$ my voice. But it is very remarkable 
201:158,30[D  ]| that$3$ she should always hear $EM#J$Jane better than she does me. 
201:158,31[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane speaks so$5#1$ distinct! However, she will$1$ not find her 
201:158,32[D  ]| grandmama at all deafer than she was two years ago; 
201:158,33[D  ]| which$6#1$ is saying a great deal$0$ at my mother's time of life ~~ 
201:158,34[D  ]| and it really is full two years, you know, since she was 
201:158,35[D  ]| here. We never were so$5#1$ long without seeing her before$5$, 
201:158,36[D  ]| and as I was telling $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole, we shall hardly know how 
201:158,37[D  ]| to$9$ make$1$ enough of her now." 
201:158,38[A  ]| "Are you expecting $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax here soon?" 
201:159,01[D  ]| "Oh, yes; next week." 
201:159,02[A  ]| "Indeed! ~~ That$6#2$ must be a very great pleasure." 
201:159,03[D  ]| "Thank you. You are very kind$2$. Yes, next week. 
201:159,04[D  ]| Every*body is so$5#1$ surprized; and every*body says the same 
201:159,05[D  ]| obliging things. I am sure she will$1$ be as happy to$9$ see her 
201:159,06[D  ]| friends at Highbury, as they can be to$9$ see her. Yes, 
201:159,07[D  ]| Friday or Saturday; she cannot say which$6#1$, because 
201:159,08[D  ]| $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell will$1$ be wanting the carriage himself one 
201:159,09[D  ]| of those days. So$5#1$ very good of them to$9$ send her the whole$2$ 
201:159,10[D  ]| way! But they always do, you know. Oh, yes, Friday 
201:159,11[D  ]| or Saturday next. That$6#2$ is what she writes about$4$. That$6#2$ 
201:159,12[D  ]| is the reason$0$ of her writing out$5$ of rule, as we call$1$ it; for$3$ 
201:159,13[D  ]| in$4$ the common$2$ course$0$, we should not have heard from 
201:159,14[D  ]| her before$4$ next Tuesday or Wednesday." 
201:159,15[A  ]| "Yes, so$5#2$ I imagined. I was afraid there could be little 
201:159,16[A  ]| chance$0$ of my hearing any*thing of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax to-day." 
201:159,17[D  ]| "So$5#1$ obliging of you! No$7$, we should not have heard, 
201:159,18[D  ]| if it had not been for$4$ this particular circumstance, of her 
201:159,19[D  ]| being$1$ to$9$ come here so$5#1$ soon. My mother is so$5#1$ delighted! ~~ 
201:159,20[D  ]| for$3$ she is to$9$ be three months with us at least. Three 
201:159,21[D  ]| months, she says so$5#2$, positively, as I am going to$9$ have the 
201:159,22[D  ]| pleasure of reading to$4$ you. The case is, you see, that$3$ the 
201:159,23[D  ]| $EM#ZC2$Campbells are going to$4$ Ireland. $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon has persuaded 
201:159,24[D  ]| her father and mother to$9$ come over and see her directly. 
201:159,25[D  ]| They had not intended to$9$ go over till the summer, but 
201:159,26[D  ]| she is so$5#1$ impatient to$9$ see them again ~~ for$3$ till she married, 
201:159,27[D  ]| last$2$ October, she was never away from them so$5#1$ much as 
201:159,28[D  ]| a week, which$6#1$ must make$1$ it very strange to$9$ be in$4$ different 
201:159,29[D  ]| kingdoms, I was going to$9$ say, but however different 
201:159,30[D  ]| countries, and so$3$ she wrote a very urgent letter to$4$ her 
201:159,31[D  ]| mother ~~ or her father, I declare I do not know which$6#1$ it 
201:159,32[D  ]| was, but we shall see presently in$4$ $EM#J$Jane's letter ~~ wrote in$4$ 
201:159,33[D  ]| $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon's name$0$ as well$5$ as her own$2$, to$9$ press$1$ their coming 
201:159,34[D  ]| over directly, and they would give them the meeting in$4$ 
201:159,35[D  ]| Dublin, and take them back$5$ to$4$ their country-seat, Balycraig, 
201:159,36[D  ]| a beautiful place$0$, I fancy$1$. $EM#J$Jane has heard a great 
201:159,37[D  ]| deal$0$ of its beauty; from $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon I mean$1$ ~~ I do not know 
201:159,38[D  ]| that$3$ she ever heard about$4$ it from any*body else; but it 
201:160,01[D  ]| was very natural$2$, you know, that$3$ he should like$1$ to$9$ speak 
201:160,02[D  ]| of his own$2$ place$0$ while$3$ he was paying his addresses ~~ and 
201:160,03[D  ]| as $EM#J$Jane used to$9$ be very often walking out$5$ with them ~~ for$3$ 
201:160,04[D  ]| $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell were very particular about$4$ 
201:160,05[D  ]| their daughter's not walking out$5$ often with only $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, 
201:160,06[D  ]| for$4$ which$6#1$ I do not at all blame$1$ them; of course$8$ she heard 
201:160,07[D  ]| everything he might be telling $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell about$4$ his 
201:160,08[D  ]| own$2$ home in$4$ Ireland. And I think she wrote us word 
201:160,09[D  ]| that$3$ he had shewn them some drawings of the place$0$, views 
201:160,10[D  ]| that$6#1$ he had taken himself. He is a most amiable, charming 
201:160,11[D  ]| young man, I believe. $EM#J$Jane was quite longing to$9$ go 
201:160,12[D  ]| to$4$ Ireland, from his account$0$ of things." 
201:160,13['  ]| At this moment, an ingenious and animating suspicion 
201:160,14['  ]| entering $EM#A$Emma's brain with regard$0$ to$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, this 
201:160,15['  ]| charming $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, and the not going to$4$ Ireland, she 
201:160,16['  ]| said, with the insidious design$0$ of further discovery, 
201:160,17[A  ]| "You must feel it very fortunate that$3$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
201:160,18[A  ]| should be allowed to$9$ come to$4$ you at such a time. Considering 
201:160,19[A  ]| the very particular friendship between her and 
201:160,20[A  ]| $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon, you could hardly have expected her to$9$ be 
201:160,21[A  ]| excused from accompanying $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell." 
201:160,22[D  ]| "Very true, very true, indeed. The very thing that$6#1$ we 
201:160,23[D  ]| have always been rather afraid of; for$3$ we should not have 
201:160,24[D  ]| liked to$9$ have her at such a distance$0$ from us, for$4$ months 
201:160,25[D  ]| together ~~ not able to$9$ come if anything was to$9$ happen. 
201:160,26[D  ]| But you see, every*thing turns$1$ out$5$ for$4$ the best. They 
201:160,27[D  ]| want$1$ her ($EM#ZF$Mr% and $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon) excessively to$9$ come over 
201:160,28[D  ]| with $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell; quite depend upon$4$ it; 
201:160,29[D  ]| nothing can be more kind$2$ or pressing than their \joint\ 
201:160,30[D  ]| invitation, $EM#J$Jane says, as you will$1$ hear presently; $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon 
201:160,31[D  ]| does not seem in$4$ the least backward in$4$ any attention. 
201:160,32[D  ]| He is a most charming young man. Ever since the 
201:160,33[D  ]| service he rendered $EM#J$Jane at Weymouth, when they were 
201:160,34[D  ]| out$5$ in$4$ that$6#2$ party on$4$ the water, and she, by$4$ the sudden$2$ 
201:160,35[D  ]| whirling round$5$ of something or other among the sails, 
201:160,36[D  ]| would have been dashed into the sea at once, and actually 
201:160,37[D  ]| was all but gone, if he had not, with the greatest presence 
201:160,38[D  ]| of mind$0$, caught hold$0$ of her habit ~~ (I can never think of it 
201:161,01[D  ]| without trembling!) ~~ But ever since we had the history 
201:161,02[D  ]| of that$6#2$ day, I have been so$5#1$ fond of $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon!" 
201:161,03[A  ]| "But, in$4$ spite$8$ of all her friend's urgency, and her own$2$ 
201:161,04[A  ]| wish$0$ of seeing Ireland, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax prefers devoting the 
201:161,05[A  ]| time to$4$ you and $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates?" 
201:161,06[D  ]| "Yes ~~ entirely her own$2$ doing, entirely her own$2$ choice$0$; 
201:161,07[D  ]| and $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell think she does quite right$2#1$, 
201:161,08[D  ]| just$5$ what they should recommend; and indeed they particularly 
201:161,09[D  ]| \wish$1$\ her to$9$ try her native$2$ air, as she has not been 
201:161,10[D  ]| quite so$5#1$ well$5$ as usual lately." 
201:161,11[A  ]| "I am concerned to$9$ hear of it. I think they judge$1$ wisely. 
201:161,12[A  ]| But $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon must be very much disappointed. $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon, 
201:161,13[A  ]| I understand, has no$2$ remarkable degree of personal 
201:161,14[A  ]| beauty; is not, by$4$ any means$0$, to$9$ be compared with 
201:161,15[A  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax." 
201:161,16[D  ]| "Oh! no$7$. You are very obliging to$9$ say such things ~~ 
201:161,17[D  ]| but certainly not. There is no$2$ comparison between them. 
201:161,18[D  ]| $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell always was absolutely plain ~~ but extremely 
201:161,19[D  ]| elegant and amiable." 
201:161,20[A  ]| "Yes, that$6#2$ of course$8$." 
201:161,21[D  ]| "$EM#J$Jane caught a bad cold$0$, poor thing! so$5#1$ long ago as 
201:161,22[D  ]| the 7th November, (as I am going to$9$ read to$4$ you,) and 
201:161,23[D  ]| has never been well$5$ since. A long time, is not it, for$4$ a cold$0$ 
201:161,24[D  ]| to$9$ hang upon$4$ her? She never mentioned it before$5$, because 
201:161,25[D  ]| she would not alarm$1$ us. Just$5$ like$4$ her! so$5#1$ considerate! ~~ 
201:161,26[D  ]| But however, she is so$5#1$ far from well$5$, that$3$ her kind$2$ friends 
201:161,27[D  ]| the $EM#ZC2$Campbells think she had better come home, and try an 
201:161,28[D  ]| air that$6#1$ always agrees with her; and they have no$2$ doubt$0$ 
201:161,29[D  ]| that$3$ three or four months at Highbury will$1$ entirely cure$1$ 
201:161,30[D  ]| her ~~ and it is certainly a great deal$0$ better that$3$ she should 
201:161,31[D  ]| come here, than go to$4$ Ireland, if she is unwell. Nobody 
201:161,32[D  ]| could nurse$1$ her, as we should do." 
201:161,33[A  ]| "It appears to$4$ me the most desirable arrangement in$4$ 
201:161,34[A  ]| the world." 
201:161,35[D  ]| "And so$3$ she is to$9$ come to$4$ us next Friday or Saturday, 
201:161,36[D  ]| and the $EM#ZC2$Campbells leave$1$ town in$4$ their way to$4$ Holyhead 
201:161,37[D  ]| the Monday following ~~ as you will$1$ find from $EM#J$Jane's letter. 
201:161,38[D  ]| So$5#1$ sudden$2$! ~~ You may$1$ guess$1$, dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, what 
201:162,01[D  ]| a flurry it has thrown me in$5$! If it was not for$4$ the drawback 
201:162,02[D  ]| of her illness ~~ but I am afraid we must expect to$9$ 
201:162,03[D  ]| see her grown thin, and looking very poorly. I must tell 
201:162,04[D  ]| you what an unlucky thing happened to$4$ me, as to$4$ that$6#2$. 
201:162,05[D  ]| I always make$1$ a point$0$ of reading $EM#J$Jane's letters through$5$ to$4$ 
201:162,06[D  ]| myself first, before$3$ I read them aloud to$4$ my mother, you 
201:162,07[D  ]| know, for$4$ fear$0$ of there being$1$ any*thing in$4$ them to$9$ distress$1$ 
201:162,08[D  ]| her. $EM#J$Jane desired me to$9$ do it, so$3$ I always do: and so$3$ I 
201:162,09[D  ]| began to-day with my usual caution$0$; but no$2$ sooner did 
201:162,10[D  ]| I come to$4$ the mention$0$ of her being$1$ unwell, than I burst$1$ 
201:162,11[D  ]| out$5$ quite frightened with, ""Bless me! poor $EM#J$Jane is ill!"" ~~ 
201:162,12[D  ]| which$6#1$ my mother, being$1$ on$4$ the watch$0$, heard distinctly, 
201:162,13[D  ]| and was sadly alarmed at. However, when I read on$5$, I 
201:162,14[D  ]| found it was not near$5$ so$5#1$ bad as I fancied at first; and I 
201:162,15[D  ]| make$1$ so$5#1$ light$2$ of it now to$4$ her, that$3$ she does not think much 
201:162,16[D  ]| about$4$ it. But I cannot imagine how I could be so$5#1$ off my 
201:162,17[D  ]| guard$0$! If $EM#J$Jane does not get well$5$ soon, we will$1$ call$1$ in$5$ 
201:162,18[D  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Perry. The expense shall not be thought$1$ of; and 
201:162,19[D  ]| though he is so$5#1$ liberal, and so$5#1$ fond of $EM#J$Jane that$3$ I dare$1#2$ say 
201:162,20[D  ]| he would not mean$1$ to$9$ charge$1$ anything for$4$ attendance, we 
201:162,21[D  ]| could not suffer it to$9$ be so$5#2$, you know. He has a wife and 
201:162,22[D  ]| family to$9$ maintain, and is not to$9$ be giving away his time. 
201:162,23[D  ]| Well$7$, now I have just$5$ given you a hint$0$ of what $EM#J$Jane writes 
201:162,24[D  ]| about$4$, we will$1$ turn$1$ to$4$ her letter, and I am sure she tells her 
201:162,25[D  ]| own$2$ story a great deal$0$ better than I can tell it for$4$ her." 
201:162,26[A  ]| "I am afraid we must be running away," 
201:162,26['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
201:162,27['  ]| glancing at $EM#M$Harriet, and beginning to$9$ rise$1$ ~~ 
201:162,27[A  ]| "My father 
201:162,28[A  ]| will$1$ be expecting us. I had no$2$ intention, I thought$1$ I had 
201:162,29[A  ]| no$2$ power of staying more than five minutes, when I first 
201:162,30[A  ]| entered the house. I merely called, because I would not 
201:162,31[A  ]| pass$1$ the door without inquiring after$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates; but I 
201:162,32[A  ]| have been so$5#1$ pleasantly detained! Now, however, we 
201:162,33[A  ]| must wish$1$ you and $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates good morning." 
201:162,34['  ]| And not all that$6#1$ could be urged to$9$ detain her succeeded. 
201:162,35['  ]| She regained the street ~~ happy in$4$ this, that$3$ though much 
201:162,36['  ]| had been forced on$4$ her against her will$0$, though she had in$4$ 
201:162,37['  ]| fact heard the whole$2$ substance of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's letter, 
201:162,38['  ]| she had been able to$9$ escape$1$ the letter itself. 
202:163,01['  ]| $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax was an orphan, the only child of $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's 
202:163,02['  ]| youngest daughter. 
202:163,03['  ]| The marriage of $EM#J1$Lieut%*Fairfax, of the *** regiment of 
202:163,04['  ]| infantry, and $EM#J2$Miss*Jane*Bates, had had its day of fame 
202:163,05['  ]| and pleasure, hope$0$ and interest$0$; but nothing now remained 
202:163,06['  ]| of it, save$3$ the melancholy$2$ remembrance of him 
202:163,07['  ]| dying in$4$ action abroad ~~ of his widow sinking under consumption 
202:163,08['  ]| and grief soon afterwards ~~ and this girl. 
202:163,09['  ]| By$4$ birth$0#1$ she belonged to$4$ Highbury: and when at three 
202:163,10['  ]| years old, on$4$ losing her mother, she became the property, 
202:163,11['  ]| the charge$0$, the consolation, the fondling of her grandmother 
202:163,12['  ]| and aunt, there had seemed every probability of 
202:163,13['  ]| her being$1$ permanently fixed there; of her being$1$ taught 
202:163,14['  ]| only what very limited means$0$ could command$1$, and growing 
202:163,15['  ]| up$5$ with no$2$ advantages of connection or improvement 
202:163,16['  ]| to$9$ be engrafted on$4$ what nature had given her in$4$ a pleasing 
202:163,17['  ]| person, good understanding, and warm-hearted, well*meaning 
202:163,18['  ]| relations. 
202:163,19['  ]| But the compassionate feelings of a friend of her father 
202:163,20['  ]| gave a change$0$ to$4$ her destiny. This was $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell, 
202:163,21['  ]| who$6#1$ had very highly regarded $EM#J1$Fairfax, as an excellent 
202:163,22['  ]| officer and most deserving young man; and farther, had 
202:163,23['  ]| been indebted to$4$ him for$4$ such attentions, during a severe 
202:163,24['  ]| camp-fever, as he believed had saved his life. These were 
202:163,25['  ]| claims which$6#1$ he did not learn to$9$ overlook, though some 
202:163,26['  ]| years passed away from the death of poor $EM#J1$Fairfax, before$3$ 
202:163,27['  ]| his own$2$ return$0$ to$4$ England put any*thing in$4$ his power. 
202:163,28['  ]| When he did return$1$, he sought out$5$ the child and took 
202:163,29['  ]| notice$0$ of her. He was a married man, with only one living 
202:163,30['  ]| child, a girl, about$4$ $EM#J$Jane's age: and $EM#J$Jane became their 
202:163,31['  ]| guest, paying them long visits and growing a favourite$0$ 
202:163,32['  ]| with all; and, before$3$ she was nine years old, his daughter's 
202:163,33['  ]| great fondness for$4$ her, and his own$2$ wish$0$ of being$1$ a real 
202:164,01['  ]| friend, united to$9$ produce an offer$0$ from $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell 
202:164,02['  ]| of undertaking the whole$2$ charge$0$ of her education. It was 
202:164,03['  ]| accepted; and from that$6#2$ period $EM#J$Jane had belonged to$4$ 
202:164,04['  ]| $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell's family, and had lived with them entirely, 
202:164,05['  ]| only visiting her grandmother from time to$4$ time. 
202:164,06['  ]| The plan was that$3$ she should be brought up$5$ for$4$ educating 
202:164,07['  ]| others; the very few hundred pounds which$6#1$ she inherited 
202:164,08['  ]| from her father making independence impossible. 
202:164,09['  ]| To$9$ provide for$4$ her otherwise was out$5$ of $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell's 
202:164,10['  ]| power; for$3$ though his income, by$4$ pay$0$ and appointments, 
202:164,11['  ]| was handsome, his fortune was moderate and must be all 
202:164,12['  ]| his daughter's; but, by$4$ giving her an education, he hoped 
202:164,13['  ]| to$9$ be supplying the means$0$ of respectable subsistance hereafter. 
202:164,14['  ]| 
202:164,15['  ]| Such was $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's history. She had fallen into 
202:164,16['  ]| good hands, known nothing but kindness from the $EM#ZC2$Campbells, 
202:164,17['  ]| and been given an excellent education. Living constantly 
202:164,18['  ]| with right-minded and well-informed people, her 
202:164,19['  ]| heart and understanding had received every advantage of 
202:164,20['  ]| discipline and culture; and $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell's residence 
202:164,21['  ]| being$1$ in$4$ London, every lighter talent had been done full 
202:164,22['  ]| justice to$5$, by$4$ the attendance of first-rate masters. Her 
202:164,23['  ]| disposition and abilities were equally worthy of all that$6#1$ 
202:164,24['  ]| friendship could do; and at eighteen or nineteen she was, 
202:164,25['  ]| as far as such an early age can be qualified for$4$ the care$0$ of 
202:164,26['  ]| children, fully competent to$4$ the office of instruction 
202:164,27['  ]| herself; but she was too$5#1$ much beloved to$9$ be parted 
202:164,28['  ]| with. Neither father nor mother could promote, and the 
202:164,29['  ]| daughter could not endure it. The evil day was put off. 
202:164,30['  ]| It was easy to$9$ decide that$3$ she was still$5$ too$5#1$ young; and 
202:164,31['  ]| $EM#J$Jane remained with them, sharing, as another daughter, 
202:164,32['  ]| in$4$ all the rational pleasures of an elegant society, and a 
202:164,33['  ]| judicious mixture of home and amusement, with only the 
202:164,34['  ]| drawback of the future, the sobering suggestions of her 
202:164,35['  ]| own$2$ good understanding to$9$ remind her that$3$ all this might 
202:164,36['  ]| soon be over. 
202:164,37['  ]| The affection of the whole$2$ family, the warm$2$ attachment 
202:164,38['  ]| of $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell in$4$ particular, was the more honourable 
202:165,01['  ]| to$4$ each party from the circumstance of $EM#J$Jane's decided 
202:165,02['  ]| superiority both in$4$ beauty and acquirements. That$3$ 
202:165,03['  ]| nature had given it in$4$ feature could not be unseen by$4$ the 
202:165,04['  ]| young woman, nor could her higher powers of mind$0$ be 
202:165,05['  ]| unfelt by$4$ the parents. They continued together with unabated 
202:165,06['  ]| regard$0$ however, till the marriage of $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell, 
202:165,07['  ]| who$6#1$ by$4$ that$6#2$ chance$0$, that$6#2$ luck which$6#1$ so$5#1$ often defies 
anticipation 
202:165,08['  ]| in$4$ matrimonial affairs, giving attraction to$4$ what 
202:165,09['  ]| is moderate rather than to$4$ what is superior, engaged 
202:165,10['  ]| the affections of $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, a young man, rich and 
202:165,11['  ]| agreeable, almost as soon as they were acquainted; 
202:165,12['  ]| and was eligibly and happily settled, while$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
202:165,13['  ]| had yet her bread to$9$ earn. 
202:165,14['  ]| This event had very lately taken place$0$; too$5#1$ lately for$4$ 
202:165,15['  ]| any*thing to$9$ be yet attempted by$4$ her less fortunate 
202:165,16['  ]| friend towards entering on$4$ her path of duty; though 
202:165,17['  ]| she had now reached the age which$6#1$ her own$2$ judgment 
202:165,18['  ]| had fixed on$4$ for$4$ beginning. She had long resolved that$3$ 
202:165,19['  ]| one-and-twenty should be the period. With the fortitude 
202:165,20['  ]| of a devoted noviciate, she had resolved at one-and-twenty 
202:165,21['  ]| to$9$ complete$1$ the sacrifice$0$, and retire from all the 
202:165,22['  ]| pleasures of life, of rational intercourse, equal$2$ society, 
202:165,23['  ]| peace and hope$0$, to$4$ penance and mortification for*ever. 
202:165,24['  ]| The good sense of $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell could not 
202:165,25['  ]| oppose such a resolution, though their feelings did. As 
202:165,26['  ]| long as they lived, no$2$ exertions would be necessary, their 
202:165,27['  ]| home might be her's for*ever; and for$4$ their own$2$ comfort$0$ 
202:165,28['  ]| they would have retained her wholly; but this would be 
202:165,29['  ]| selfishness: ~~ what must be at last$0$, had better be soon. 
202:165,30['  ]| Perhaps they began to$9$ feel it might have been kinder 
202:165,31['  ]| and wiser to$9$ have resisted the temptation of any delay$0$, 
202:165,32['  ]| and spared her from a taste of such enjoyments of ease$0$ 
202:165,33['  ]| and leisure as must now be relinquished. Still$5$, however, 
202:165,34['  ]| affection was glad to$9$ catch$1$ at any reasonable excuse$0$ for$4$ 
202:165,35['  ]| not hurrying on$5$ the wretched moment. She had never 
202:165,36['  ]| been quite well$5$ since the time of their daughter's marriage; 
202:165,37['  ]| and till she should have completely recovered her usual 
202:165,38['  ]| strength, they must forbid her engaging in$4$ duties, which$6#1$, 
202:166,01['  ]| so$5#1$ far from being$1$ compatible with a weakened frame and 
202:166,02['  ]| varying spirits, seemed, under the most favourable circumstances, 
202:166,03['  ]| to$9$ require something more than human 
202:166,04['  ]| perfection of body and mind$0$ to$9$ be discharged with 
202:166,05['  ]| tolerable comfort$0$. 
202:166,06['  ]| With regard$0$ to$4$ her not accompanying them to$4$ Ireland, 
202:166,07['  ]| her account$0$ to$4$ her aunt contained nothing but truth, 
202:166,08['  ]| though there might be some truths not told. It was her 
202:166,09['  ]| own$2$ choice$0$ to$9$ give the time of their absence to$4$ Highbury; 
202:166,10['  ]| to$9$ spend, perhaps, her last$2$ months of perfect$2$ liberty with 
202:166,11['  ]| those kind$2$ relations to$4$ whom$6#1$ she was so$5#1$ very dear$2#1$: 
202:166,12['  ]| and the $EM#ZC2$Campbells, whatever might be their motive or 
202:166,13['  ]| motives, whether single, or double$2$, or treble, gave the 
202:166,14['  ]| arrangement their ready sanction, and said, that$3$ they 
202:166,15['  ]| depended more on$4$ a few months spent in$4$ her native$2$ air, 
202:166,16['  ]| for$4$ the recovery of her health, than on$4$ any*thing else. 
202:166,17['  ]| Certain it was that$3$ she was to$9$ come; and that$3$ Highbury, 
202:166,18['  ]| instead of welcoming that$6#2$ perfect$2$ novelty which$6#1$ had 
202:166,19['  ]| been so$5#1$ long promised it ~~ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill ~~ must put 
202:166,20['  ]| up$5$ for$4$ the present$0#1$ with $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, who$6#1$ could bring 
202:166,21['  ]| only the freshness of a two years absence. 
202:166,22['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was sorry; ~~ 
202:166,22@a   | to$9$ have to$9$ pay$1$ civilities to$4$ a person 
202:166,23@a   | she did not like$1$ through$4$ three long months! ~~ to$9$ be 
202:166,24@a   | always doing more than she wished, and less than she 
202:166,25@a   | ought! 
202:166,25['  ]| Why she did not like$1$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax might be 
202:166,26['  ]| a difficult question$0$ to$9$ answer$1$; $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had once 
202:166,27['  ]| told her it was because she saw in$4$ her the really accomplished 
202:166,28['  ]| young woman, which$6#1$ she wanted to$9$ be thought$1$ 
202:166,29['  ]| herself; and though the accusation had been eagerly 
202:166,30['  ]| refuted at the time, there were moments of self-examination 
202:166,31['  ]| in$4$ which$6#1$ her conscience could not quite acquit her. 
202:166,32['  ]| But 
202:166,32[A   | "she could never get acquainted with her: she did 
202:166,33[A   | not know how it was, but there was such coldness and 
202:166,34[A   | reserve$0$ ~~ such apparent indifference whether she pleased 
202:166,35[A   | or not ~~ and then, her aunt was such an eternal talker! 
202:166,36[A   | ~~and she was made such a fuss with by$4$ every*body! 
202:166,37[A   | ~~ and it had been always imagined that$3$ they were to$9$ be 
202:166,38[A   | so$5#1$ intimate$2$ ~~ because their ages were the same, every*body 
202:167,01[A   | had supposed they must be so$5#1$ fond of each other." 
202:167,02['  ]| These were her reasons ~~ she had no$2$ better. 
202:167,03['  ]| It was a dislike$0$ so$5#1$ little just$2$ ~~ every imputed fault was 
202:167,04['  ]| so$5#1$ magnified by$4$ fancy$0$, that$3$ she never saw $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
202:167,05['  ]| the first time after$4$ any considerable absence, without 
202:167,06['  ]| feeling that$3$ she had injured her; and now, when the 
202:167,07['  ]| due$2$ visit$0$ was paid, on$4$ her arrival, after$4$ a two years' 
202:167,08['  ]| interval, she was particularly struck with the very 
202:167,09['  ]| appearance and manners, which$6#1$ for$4$ those two whole$2$ 
202:167,10['  ]| years she had been depreciating. 
202:167,10@a   | $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax was very 
202:167,11@a   | elegant, remarkably elegant; and she had herself the 
202:167,12@a   | highest value$0$ for$4$ elegance. Her height was pretty$2$, just$5$ 
202:167,13@a   | such as almost everybody would think tall, and nobody 
202:167,14@a   | could think very tall; her figure particularly graceful; 
202:167,15@a   | her size a most becoming medium, between fat and thin, 
202:167,16@a   | though a slight$2$ appearance of ill-health seemed to$9$ point$1$ 
202:167,17@a   | out$5$ the likeliest evil of the two. 
202:167,17['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not but feel 
202:167,18['  ]| all this; 
202:167,18@a   | and then, her face$0$ ~~ her features ~~ there was 
202:167,19@a   | more beauty in$4$ them all together than she had remembered; 
202:167,20@a   | it was not regular, but it was very pleasing 
202:167,21@a   | beauty. Her eyes, a deep grey, with dark$2$ eye-lashes and 
202:167,22@a   | eye-brows, had never been denied their praise$0$; but the 
202:167,23@a   | skin, which$6#1$ she had been used to$9$ cavil at, as wanting 
202:167,24@a   | colour, had a clearness and delicacy which$6#1$ really needed 
202:167,25@a   | no$2$ fuller bloom. It was a style of beauty, of which$6#1$ elegance 
202:167,26@a   | was the reigning character, and as such, she must, 
202:167,27@a   | in$4$ honour$0$, by$4$ all her principles, admire it: ~~ elegance, 
202:167,28@a   | which$6#1$, whether of person or of mind$0$, she saw so$5#1$ little in$4$ 
202:167,29@a   | Highbury. There, not to$9$ be vulgar, was distinction, and 
202:167,30@a   | merit$0$. 
202:167,31['  ]| In$4$ short, she sat, during the first visit$0$, looking at 
202:167,32['  ]| $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax with twofold complacency; the sense of 
202:167,33['  ]| pleasure and the sense of rendering justice, and was 
202:167,34['  ]| determining that$3$ she would dislike$1$ her no$2$ longer. 
202:167,34@a   | When 
202:167,35@a   | she took in$5$ her history, indeed, her situation, as well$5$ as 
202:167,36@a   | her beauty; when she considered what all this elegance 
202:167,37@a   | was destined to$4$, what she was going to$9$ sink from, how 
202:167,38@a   | she was going to$9$ live, it seemed impossible to$9$ feel any*thing 
202:168,01@a   | but compassion and respect$0$; especially, if to$4$ every 
202:168,02@a   | well-known particular entitling her to$4$ interest$0$, were added 
202:168,03@a   | the highly probable circumstance of an attachment to$4$ 
202:168,04@a   | $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, which$6#1$ she had so$5#1$ naturally started to$4$ herself. 
202:168,05@a   | In$4$ that$6#2$ case, nothing could be more pitiable or more 
202:168,06@a   | honourable than the sacrifices she had resolved on$4$. 
202:168,07@a   | $EM#A$Emma was very willing now to$9$ acquit her of having 
202:168,08@a   | seduced $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon's affections from his wife, or of any*thing 
202:168,09@a   | mischievous which$6#1$ her imagination had suggested 
202:168,10@a   | at first. If it were love$0$, it might be simple$2$, single, 
202:168,11@a   | successless love$0$ on$4$ her side$0$ alone. She might have been 
202:168,12@a   | unconsciously sucking in$5$ the sad poison, while$4$ a sharer 
202:168,13@a   | of his conversation with her friend; and from the best, 
202:168,14@a   | the purest of motives, might now be denying herself this 
202:168,15@a   | visit$0$ to$4$ Ireland, and resolving to$9$ divide herself effectually 
202:168,16@a   | from him and his connections by$4$ soon beginning her 
202:168,17@a   | career of laborious duty. 
202:168,18['  ]| Upon$4$ the whole$0$, $EM#A$Emma left her with such softened, 
202:168,19['  ]| charitable feelings, as made her look$1$ around$5$ in$4$ walking 
202:168,20['  ]| home, and lament that$3$ 
202:168,20@a   | Highbury afforded no$2$ young man 
202:168,21@a   | worthy of giving her independence; nobody that$6#1$ she 
202:168,22@a   | could wish$1$ to$9$ scheme$1$ about$4$ for$4$ her. 
202:168,23['  ]| These were charming feelings ~~ but not lasting. Before$3$ 
202:168,24['  ]| she had committed herself by$4$ any public$2$ profession$0#1$ of 
202:168,25['  ]| eternal friendship for$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, or done more towards 
202:168,26['  ]| a recantation of past$2$ prejudices and errors, than saying 
202:168,27['  ]| to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
202:168,27[A  ]| "She certainly is handsome; she is 
202:168,28[A  ]| better than handsome!" 
202:168,28['  ]| $EM#J$Jane had spent an evening at 
202:168,29['  ]| Hartfield with her grandmother and aunt, and every*thing 
202:168,30['  ]| was relapsing much into its usual state$0$. Former 
202:168,31['  ]| provocations re-appeared. 
202:168,31@a   | The aunt was as tiresome as 
202:168,32@a   | ever; more tiresome, because anxiety for$4$ her health was 
202:168,33@a   | now added to$4$ admiration of her powers; and they had 
202:168,34@a   | to$9$ listen to$4$ the description of exactly how little bread 
202:168,35@a   | and butter she ate for$4$ breakfast$0$, and how small a slice of 
202:168,36@a   | mutton for$4$ dinner, as well$5$ as to$9$ see exhibitions of new 
202:168,37@a   | caps and new work-bags for$4$ her mother and herself; and 
202:168,38@a   | $EM#J$Jane's offences rose$1$ again. 
202:168,38['  ]| They had music; $EM#A$Emma 
202:169,01['  ]| was obliged to$9$ play$1$; and the thanks and praise$0$ which$6#1$ 
202:169,02['  ]| necessarily followed appeared to$4$ her 
202:169,02@a   | an affectation of 
202:169,03@a   | candour, an air of greatness, meaning only to$9$ shew$1$ off in$4$ 
202:169,04@a   | higher style her own$2$ very superior performance. She 
202:169,05@a   | was, besides, which$6#1$ was the worst of all, so$5#1$ cold$2$, so$5#1$ 
202:169,06@a   | cautious! There was no$2$ getting at her real opinion. 
202:169,07@a   | Wrapt up$5$ in$4$ a cloak of politeness, she seemed determined 
202:169,08@a   | to$9$ hazard$1$ nothing. She was disgustingly, was 
202:169,09@a   | suspiciously reserved. 
202:169,10@a   | If any*thing could be more, where all was most, she 
202:169,11@a   | was more reserved on$4$ the subject$0$ of Weymouth and the 
202:169,12@a   | $EM#ZF2$Dixons than any*thing. She seemed bent on$4$ giving no$2$ 
202:169,13@a   | real insight into $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon's character, or her own$2$ value$0$ 
202:169,14@a   | for$4$ his company, or opinion of the suitableness of the 
202:169,15@a   | match$0$. It was all general$2$ approbation and smoothness; 
202:169,16@a   | nothing delineated or distinguished. It did her no$2$ 
202:169,17@a   | service however. Her caution$0$ was thrown away. 
202:169,17['  ]| $EM#A$Emma 
202:169,18['  ]| saw its artifice, and returned to$4$ her first surmises. 
202:169,18@a   | There 
202:169,19@a   | probably \was\ something more to$9$ conceal than her own$2$ 
202:169,20@a   | preference; $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, perhaps, had been very near$4$ 
202:169,21@a   | changing one friend for$4$ the other, or been fixed only to$4$ 
202:169,22@a   | $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell, for$4$ the sake of the future twelve thousand 
202:169,23@a   | pounds. 
202:169,24['  ]| The like$2$ reserve$0$ prevailed on$4$ other topics. She and 
202:169,25['  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill had been at Weymouth at the same 
202:169,26['  ]| time. It was known that$3$ they were a little acquainted; 
202:169,27['  ]| but not a syllable of real information could $EM#A$Emma procure 
202:169,28['  ]| as to$4$ what he truly was. 
202:169,28[A  ]| "Was he handsome?" ~~ 
202:169,29[J  ]| "She believed he was reckoned a very fine young man." 
202:169,30[A  ]| "Was he agreeable?" ~~ 
202:169,30[J  ]| "He was generally thought$1$ so$5#2$." 
202:169,31[A  ]| "Did he appear a sensible$2#2$ young man; a young man of 
202:169,32[A  ]| information?" ~~ 
202:169,32[J  ]| "At a watering-place, or in$4$ a common$2$ 
202:169,33[J  ]| London acquaintance, it was difficult to$9$ decide on$4$ such 
202:169,34[J  ]| points. Manners were all that$6#1$ could be safely judged of, 
202:169,35[J  ]| under a much longer knowledge than they had yet had of 
202:169,36[J  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill. She believed every*body found his manners 
202:169,37[J  ]| pleasing." 
202:169,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not forgive her. 
203:170,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not forgive her; ~~ but as neither provocation 
203:170,02['  ]| nor resentment were discerned by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, who$6#1$ 
203:170,03['  ]| had been of the party, and had seen only proper attention 
203:170,04['  ]| and pleasing behaviour on$4$ each side$0$, he was expressing 
203:170,05['  ]| the next morning, being$1$ at Hartfield again on$4$ business 
203:170,06['  ]| with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, his approbation of the whole$0$; not 
203:170,07['  ]| so$5#1$ openly as he might have done had her father been out$5$ 
203:170,08['  ]| of the room, but speaking plain enough to$9$ be very 
203:170,09['  ]| intelligible to$4$ $EM#A$Emma. He had been used to$9$ think her 
203:170,10['  ]| unjust to$4$ $EM#J$Jane, and had now great pleasure in$4$ marking an 
203:170,11['  ]| improvement. 
203:170,12[B  ]| "A very pleasant evening," 
203:170,12['  ]| he began, as soon as 
203:170,13['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had been talked into what was necessary, 
203:170,14['  ]| told that$3$ he understood, and the papers swept away; ~~ 
203:170,15[B  ]| "particularly pleasant. You and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax gave us 
203:170,16[B  ]| some very good music. I do not know a more luxurious 
203:170,17[B  ]| state$0$, sir, than sitting at one's ease$0$ to$9$ be entertained 
203:170,18[B  ]| a whole$2$ evening by$4$ two such young women; sometimes 
203:170,19[B  ]| with music and sometimes with conversation. I am sure 
203:170,20[B  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax must have found the evening pleasant, 
203:170,21[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma. You left nothing undone. I was glad you made 
203:170,22[B  ]| her play$1$ so$5#1$ much, for$3$ having no$2$ instrument at her 
203:170,23[B  ]| grandmother's, it must have been a real indulgence." 
203:170,24[A  ]| "I am happy you approved," 
203:170,24['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, smiling; 
203:170,25[A  ]| "but I hope$1$ I am not often deficient in$4$ what is due$2$ to$4$ 
203:170,26[A  ]| guests at Hartfield." 
203:170,27[P  ]| "No$7$, my dear$2#1$," 
203:170,27['  ]| said her father instantly; 
203:170,27[P  ]| "\that$6#2$\ 
203:170,28[P  ]| I am sure you are not. There is nobody half so$5#1$ attentive 
203:170,29[P  ]| and civil as you are. If any*thing, you are too$5#1$ attentive. 
203:170,30[P  ]| The muffin last$2$ night ~~ if it had been handed round$5$ once, 
203:170,31[P  ]| I think it would have been enough." 
203:170,32[B  ]| "No$7$," 
203:170,32['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, nearly at the same time; 
203:170,33[B  ]| "you are not often deficient; not often deficient either 
203:171,01[B  ]| in$4$ manner or comprehension. I think you understand 
203:171,02[B  ]| me, therefore." 
203:171,03['  ]| An arch look$0$ expressed ~~ 
203:171,03@a   | "I understand you well$5$ 
203:171,04@a   | enough;" 
203:171,04['  ]| but she said only, 
203:171,04[A  ]| "$EM#J$Miss*Fairfax is reserved." 
203:171,05[B  ]| "I always told you she was ~~ a little; but you will$1$ 
203:171,06[B  ]| soon overcome all that$6#2$ part$0$ of her reserve$0$ which$6#1$ ought 
203:171,07[B  ]| to$9$ be overcome, all that$6#1$ has its foundation in$4$ diffidence. 
203:171,08[B  ]| what arises from discretion must be honoured." 
203:171,09[A  ]| "You think her diffident. I do not see it." 
203:171,10[B  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma," 
203:171,10['  ]| said he, moving from his chair into 
203:171,11['  ]| one close$5$ by$4$ her, 
203:171,11[B  ]| "you are not going to$9$ tell me, I hope$1$, 
203:171,12[B  ]| that$3$ you had not a pleasant evening." 
203:171,13[A  ]| "Oh! no$7$; I was pleased with my own$2$ perseverance 
203:171,14[A  ]| in$4$ asking questions, and amused to$9$ think how little 
203:171,15[A  ]| information I obtained." 
203:171,16[B  ]| "I am disappointed," 
203:171,16['  ]| was his only answer$0$. 
203:171,17[P  ]| "I hope$1$ every*body had a pleasant evening," 
203:171,17['  ]| said 
203:171,18['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, in$4$ his quiet$2$ way. 
203:171,18[P  ]| "I had. Once, I felt 
203:171,19[P  ]| the fire$0$ rather too$5#1$ much; but then I moved back$5$ my chair 
203:171,20[P  ]| a little, a very little, and it did not disturb me. $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
203:171,21[P  ]| was very chatty and good-humoured, as she always 
203:171,22[P  ]| is, though she speaks rather too$5#1$ quick$2$. However, she 
203:171,23[P  ]| is very agreeable, and $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates too$5#2$, in$4$ a different way. 
203:171,24[P  ]| I like$1$ old friends; and $EM#J$Miss*Jane*Fairfax is a very pretty$2$ 
203:171,25[P  ]| sort of young lady, a very pretty$2$ and a very well-behaved 
203:171,26[P  ]| young lady indeed. She must have found the evening 
203:171,27[P  ]| agreeable, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, because she had $EM#A$Emma." 
203:171,28[B  ]| "True, sir; and $EM#A$Emma, because she had $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax." 
203:171,29['  ]| $EM#A$Emma saw his anxiety, and wishing to$9$ appease it, at 
203:171,30['  ]| least for$4$ the present$0#1$, said, and with a sincerity which$6#1$ no*one 
203:171,31['  ]| could question$1$ ~~ 
203:171,32[A  ]| "She is a sort of elegant creature that$6#1$ one cannot keep 
203:171,33[A  ]| one's eyes from. I am always watching her to$9$ admire; 
203:171,34[A  ]| and I do pity$1$ her from my heart." 
203:171,35['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley looked as if he were more gratified than 
203:171,36['  ]| he cared to$9$ express$1$; and before$3$ he could make$1$ any 
203:171,37['  ]| reply$0$, $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, whose$6#1$ thoughts were on$4$ the 
203:171,38['  ]| $EM#C1$Bates's, said ~~ 
203:172,01[P  ]| "It is a great pity$0$ that$3$ their circumstances should be 
203:172,02[P  ]| so$5#1$ confined! a great pity$0$ indeed! and I have often 
203:172,03[P  ]| wished ~~ but it is so$5#1$ little one can venture to$9$ do ~~ small, 
203:172,04[P  ]| trifling presents$0$, of any*thing uncommon ~~ Now we have 
203:172,05[P  ]| killed a porker, and $EM#A$Emma thinks of sending them a loin 
203:172,06[P  ]| or a leg; it is very small and delicate ~~ Hartfield pork is 
203:172,07[P  ]| not like$4$ any other pork ~~ but still$5$ it is pork ~~ and, my 
203:172,08[P  ]| dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, unless one could be sure of their making it 
203:172,09[P  ]| into steaks, nicely fried, as our's are fried, without the 
203:172,10[P  ]| smallest grease, and not roast$1$ it, for$3$ no$2$ stomach can bear$1$ 
203:172,11[P  ]| roast$0$ pork ~~ I think we had better send the leg ~~ do not 
203:172,12[P  ]| you think so$5#2$, my dear$2#1$?" 
203:172,13[A  ]| "My dear$2#1$ papa, I sent the whole$2$ hind-quarter. I knew 
203:172,14[A  ]| you would wish$1$ it. There will$1$ be the leg to$9$ be salted, 
203:172,15[A  ]| you know, which$6#1$ is so$5#1$ very nice, and the loin to$9$ be 
203:172,16[A  ]| dressed directly in$4$ any manner they like$1$." 
203:172,17[P  ]| "That's right$2#1$, my dear$2#1$, very right$2#1$. I had not thought$1$ 
203:172,18[P  ]| of it before$5$, but that$6#2$ was the best way. They must not 
203:172,19[P  ]| over-salt the leg; and then, if it is not over-salted, and 
203:172,20[P  ]| if it is very thoroughly boiled, just$5$ as $EM#ZZN$Serle boils our's, 
203:172,21[P  ]| and eaten very moderately of, with a boiled turnip, and a 
203:172,22[P  ]| little carrot or parsnip, I do not consider it unwholesome." 
203:172,23[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma," 
203:172,23['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley presently, 
203:172,23[B  ]| "I have 
203:172,24[B  ]| a piece of news for$4$ you. You like$1$ news ~~ and I heard an 
203:172,25[B  ]| article in$4$ my way hither that$6#1$ I think will$1$ interest$1$ you." 
203:172,26[A  ]| "News! Oh! yes, I always like$1$ news. What is it? ~~ 
203:172,27[A  ]| why do you smile$1$ so$5#2$? ~~ where did you hear it? ~~ at 
203:172,28[A  ]| Randalls?" 
203:172,29['  ]| He had time only to$9$ say, 
203:172,30[B  ]| "No$7$, not at Randalls; I have not been near$4$ Randalls," 
203:172,31['  ]| when the door was thrown open$2$, and $EM#D$Miss*Bates and 
203:172,32['  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax walked into the room. Full of thanks, and 
203:172,33['  ]| full of news, $EM#D$Miss*Bates knew not which$6#1$ to$9$ give quickest. 
203:172,34['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley soon saw that$3$ he had lost his moment, 
203:172,35['  ]| and that$3$ not another syllable of communication could 
203:172,36['  ]| rest$1$ with him. 
203:172,37[D  ]| "Oh! my dear$2#1$ sir, how are you this morning? My 
203:172,38[D  ]| dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse ~~ I come quite overpowered. Such 
203:173,01[D  ]| a beautiful hind-quarter of pork! You are too$5#1$ bountiful! 
203:173,02[D  ]| Have you heard the news? $EM#H$Mr%*Elton is going to$9$ be 
203:173,03[D  ]| married." 
203:173,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had not had time even$5$ to$9$ think of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, 
203:173,05['  ]| and she was so$5#1$ completely surprized that$3$ she could not 
203:173,06['  ]| avoid a little start$0$, and a little blush$0$, at the sound$0$. 
203:173,07[B  ]| "There is my news: ~~ I thought$1$ it would interest$1$ you," 
203:173,08['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, with a smile$0$ which$6#1$ implied a conviction 
203:173,09['  ]| of some part$0$ of what had passed between them. 
203:173,10[D  ]| "But where could \you\ hear it?" 
203:173,10['  ]| cried $EM#D$Miss*Bates. 
203:173,11[D  ]| "Where could you possibly hear it, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley? 
203:173,12[D  ]| For$3$ it is not five minutes since I received $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole's 
203:173,13[D  ]| note$0$ ~~ no$7$, it cannot be more than five ~~ or at least ten ~~ 
203:173,14[D  ]| for$3$ I had got my bonnet and spencer on$5$, just$5$ ready to$9$ 
203:173,15[D  ]| come out$5$ ~~ I was only gone down$5$ to$9$ speak to$4$ $EM#V$Patty again 
203:173,16[D  ]| about$4$ the pork ~~ $EM#J$Jane was standing in$4$ the passage ~~ 
203:173,17[D  ]| were not you, $EM#J$Jane? ~~ for$3$ my mother was so$5#1$ afraid that$3$ 
203:173,18[D  ]| we had not any salting-pan large enough. So$3$ I said 
203:173,19[D  ]| I would go down$5$ and see, and $EM#J$Jane said, 
203:173,19@j   | ""Shall I go down$5$ 
203:173,20@j   | instead? for$3$ I think you have a little cold$0$, and $EM#V$Patty 
203:173,21@j   | has been washing the kitchen."" 
203:173,21[D  ]| ""Oh! my dear$2#1$," said I ~~ 
203:173,22[D  ]| well$7$, and just$5$ then came the note$0$. A $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins ~~ that's 
203:173,23[D  ]| all I know. A $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins of Bath$0#1$. But, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
203:173,24[D  ]| how could you possibly have heard it? for$3$ the very 
203:173,25[D  ]| moment $EM#F$Mr%*Cole told $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole of it, she sat down$5$ and 
203:173,26[D  ]| wrote to$4$ me. A $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins" ~~ 
203:173,27[B  ]| "I was with $EM#F$Mr%*Cole on$4$ business an hour and half 
203:173,28[B  ]| ago. He had just$5$ read $EM#H$Elton's letter as I was shewn in$5$, 
203:173,29[B  ]| and handed it to$4$ me directly." 
203:173,30[D  ]| "Well$7$! that$6#2$ is quite ~~ I suppose there never was 
203:173,31[D  ]| a piece of news more generally interesting. My dear$2#1$ sir, 
203:173,32[D  ]| you really are too$5#1$ bountiful. My mother desires her 
203:173,33[D  ]| very best compliments and regards$0$, and a thousand 
203:173,34[D  ]| thanks, and says you really quite oppress her." 
203:173,35[P  ]| "We consider our Hartfield pork," 
203:173,35['  ]| replied $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse ~~ 
203:173,36[P  ]| "indeed it certainly is, so$5#1$ very superior to$4$ all 
203:173,37[P  ]| other pork, that$3$ $EM#A$Emma and I cannot have a greater 
203:173,38[P  ]| pleasure than" ~~ 
203:174,01[D  ]| "Oh! my dear$2#1$ sir, as my mother says, our friends are 
203:174,02[D  ]| only too$5#1$ good to$4$ us. If ever there were people who$6#1$, 
203:174,03[D  ]| without having great wealth themselves, had every*thing 
203:174,04[D  ]| they could wish$1$ for$4$, I am sure it is us. We may$1$ well$5$ say 
203:174,05[D  ]| that$3$ 
203:174,05@z   | ""our lot is cast in$4$ a goodly heritage."" 
203:174,05[D  ]| Well$7$, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
203:174,06[D  ]| and so$3$ you actually saw the letter; well$7$" ~~ 
203:174,07[B  ]| "It was short, merely to$9$ announce ~~ but cheerful, 
203:174,08[B  ]| exulting, of course$8$." ~~ 
203:174,08['  ]| Here was a sly glance$0$ at $EM#A$Emma. 
203:174,09[B  ]| "He had been so$5#1$ fortunate as to$9$ ~~ I forget the precise 
203:174,10[B  ]| words ~~ one has no$2$ business to$9$ remember them. The 
203:174,11[B  ]| information was, as you state$1$, that$3$ he was going to$9$ be 
203:174,12[B  ]| married to$4$ a $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins. By$4$ his style, I should 
203:174,13[B  ]| imagine it just$5$ settled." 
203:174,14[A  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton going to$9$ be married!" 
203:174,14['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, as 
203:174,15['  ]| soon as she could speak. 
203:174,15[A  ]| "He will$1$ have everybody's 
203:174,16[A  ]| wishes$0$ for$4$ his happiness." 
203:174,17[P  ]| "He is very young to$9$ settle," 
203:174,17['  ]| was $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
203:174,18['  ]| observation. 
203:174,18[P  ]| "He had better not be in$4$ a hurry$0$. He 
203:174,19[P  ]| seemed to$4$ me very well$5$ off as he was. We were always 
203:174,20[P  ]| glad to$9$ see him at Hartfield." 
203:174,21[D  ]| "A new neighbour for$4$ us all, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse!" 
203:174,21['  ]| said 
203:174,22['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates, joyfully; 
203:174,22[D  ]| "my mother is so$5#1$ pleased! ~~ she 
203:174,23[D  ]| says she cannot bear$1$ to$9$ have the poor old Vicarage without 
203:174,24[D  ]| a mistress. This is great news, indeed. $EM#J$Jane, you have 
203:174,25[D  ]| never seen $EM#H$Mr%*Elton! ~~ no$2$ wonder$0$ that$3$ you have such 
203:174,26[D  ]| a curiosity to$9$ see him." 
203:174,27['  ]| $EM#J$Jane's curiosity did not appear of that$6#2$ absorbing nature 
203:174,28['  ]| as wholly to$9$ occupy her. 
203:174,29[J  ]| "No$7$ ~~ I have never seen $EM#H$Mr%*Elton," 
203:174,29['  ]| she replied, 
203:174,30['  ]| starting on$4$ this appeal; 
203:174,30[J  ]| "is he ~~ is he a tall man?" 
203:174,31[A  ]| "Who$6#2$ shall answer$1$ that$6#2$ question$0$?" 
203:174,31['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma. 
203:174,32[A  ]| "My father would say ""yes,"" $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, ""no$7$;"" and 
203:174,33[A  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates and I that$3$ he is just$5$ the happy medium. 
203:174,34[A  ]| When you have been here a little longer, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
203:174,35[A  ]| you will$1$ understand that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton is the standard of 
203:174,36[A  ]| perfection in$4$ Highbury, both in$4$ person and mind$0$." 
203:174,37[D  ]| "Very true, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, so$5#2$ she will$1$. He is the 
203:174,38[D  ]| very best young man ~~ But, my dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, if you remember, 
203:175,01[D  ]| I told you yesterday he was precisely the height of 
203:175,02[D  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Perry. $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins, ~~ I dare$1#2$ say, an excellent 
203:175,03[D  ]| young woman. His extreme$2$ attention to$4$ my mother ~~ 
203:175,04[D  ]| wanting her to$9$ sit in$4$ the vicarage-pew, that$3$ she might 
203:175,05[D  ]| hear the better, for$3$ my mother is a little deaf, you know ~~ 
203:175,06[D  ]| it is not much, but she does not hear quite quick$2$. $EM#J$Jane 
203:175,07[D  ]| says that$3$ $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell is a little deaf. He fancied 
203:175,08[D  ]| bathing might be good for$4$ it ~~ the warm$2$ bath$0#2$ ~~ but she 
203:175,09[D  ]| says it did him no$2$ lasting benefit. $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell, you 
203:175,10[D  ]| know, is quite our angel. And $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon seems a very 
203:175,11[D  ]| charming young man, quite worthy of him. It is such 
203:175,12[D  ]| a happiness when good people get together ~~ and they 
203:175,13[D  ]| always do. Now, here will$1$ be $EM#H$Mr%*Elton and $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins; 
203:175,14[D  ]| and there are the $EM#F1$Coles, such very good people; and the 
203:175,15[D  ]| $EM#W2$Perrys ~~ I suppose there never was a happier or a better 
203:175,16[D  ]| couple than $EM#W$Mr% and $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry. I say, sir," 
203:175,16['  ]| turning to$4$ 
203:175,17['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, 
203:175,17[D  ]| "I think there are few places$0$ with such 
203:175,18[D  ]| society as Highbury. I always say, we are quite blessed 
203:175,19[D  ]| in$4$ our neighbours. ~~ My dear$2#1$ sir, if there is one thing my 
203:175,20[D  ]| mother loves better than another, it is pork ~~ a roast loin 
203:175,21[D  ]| of pork" ~~ 
203:175,22[A  ]| "As to$4$ who$6#2$, or what $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins is, or how long he 
203:175,23[A  ]| has been acquainted with her," 
203:175,23['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
203:175,23[A  ]| "nothing 
203:175,24[A  ]| I suppose can be known. One feels that$3$ it cannot be 
203:175,25[A  ]| a very long acquaintance. He has been gone only four 
203:175,26[A  ]| weeks." 
203:175,27['  ]| Nobody had any information to$9$ give; and, after$4$ a few 
203:175,28['  ]| more wonderings, $EM#A$Emma said, 
203:175,29[A  ]| "You are silent, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax ~~ but I hope$1$ you mean$1$ 
203:175,30[A  ]| to$9$ take an interest$0$ in$4$ this news. You, who$6#1$ have been 
203:175,31[A  ]| hearing and seeing so$5#1$ much of late on$4$ these subjects, who$6#1$ 
203:175,32[A  ]| must have been so$5#1$ deep in$4$ the business on$4$ $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell's 
203:175,33[A  ]| account$0$ ~~ we shall not excuse$1$ your being$1$ indifferent 
203:175,34[A  ]| about$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton and $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins." 
203:175,35[J  ]| "When I have seen $EM#H$Mr%*Elton," 
203:175,35['  ]| replied $EM#J$Jane, 
203:175,35[J  ]| "I dare$1#2$ 
203:175,36[J  ]| say I shall be interested ~~ but I believe it requires \that$6#2$\ 
203:175,37[J  ]| with me. And as it is some months since $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell 
203:175,38[J  ]| married, the impression may$1$ be a little worn off." 
203:176,01[D  ]| "Yes, he has been gone just$5$ four weeks, as you observe, 
203:176,02[D  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
203:176,02['  ]| said $EM#D$Miss*Bates, 
203:176,02[D  ]| "four weeks yesterday. 
203:176,03[D  ]| ~~ A $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins ~~. Well$7$, I had always rather fancied 
203:176,04[D  ]| it would be some young lady hereabouts; not that$3$ I ever 
203:176,05[D  ]| ~~ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole once whispered to$4$ me ~~ but I immediately 
203:176,06[D  ]| said, ""No$7$, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton is a most worthy young man ~~ 
203:176,07[D  ]| but"" ~~ In$4$ short, I do not think I am particularly 
203:176,08[D  ]| quick$2$ at those sort of discoveries. I do not pretend to$4$ it. 
203:176,09[D  ]| What is before$4$ me, I see. At the same time, nobody 
203:176,10[D  ]| could wonder$1$ if $EM#H$Mr%*Elton should have aspired ~~ 
203:176,11[D  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse lets me chatter on$5$, so$5#1$ good-humouredly. 
203:176,12[D  ]| She knows I would not offend for$4$ the world. How does 
203:176,13[D  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Smith do? She seems quite recovered now. Have 
203:176,14[D  ]| you heard from $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley lately? Oh! those 
203:176,15[D  ]| dear$2#1$ little children. $EM#J$Jane, do you know I always fancy$1$ 
203:176,16[D  ]| $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon like$4$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley? I mean$1$ in$4$ person 
203:176,17[D  ]| ~~ tall, and with that$6#2$ sort of look$0$ ~~ and not very talkative." 
203:176,18[J  ]| "Quite wrong, my dear$2#1$ aunt; there is no$2$ likeness 
203:176,19[J  ]| at all." 
203:176,20[D  ]| "Very odd! but one never does form$1$ a just$2$ idea of 
203:176,21[D  ]| any*body beforehand. One takes up$5$ a notion, and runs 
203:176,22[D  ]| away with it. $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, you say, is not, strictly speaking, 
203:176,23[D  ]| handsome." 
203:176,24[J  ]| "Handsome! Oh! no$7$ ~~ far from it ~~ certainly plain. 
203:176,25[J  ]| I told you he was plain." 
203:176,26[D  ]| "My dear$2#1$, you said that$3$ $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell would not 
203:176,27[D  ]| allow him to$9$ be plain, and that$3$ you yourself ~~" 
203:176,28[J  ]| "Oh! as for$4$ me, my judgment is worth nothing. 
203:176,29[J  ]| Where I have a regard$0$, I always think a person well-looking. 
203:176,30[J  ]| But I gave what I believed the general$2$ opinion, 
203:176,31[J  ]| when I called him plain." 
203:176,32[D  ]| "Well$7$, my dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, I believe we must be running 
203:176,33[D  ]| away. The weather does not look$1$ well$5$, and grandmamma 
203:176,34[D  ]| will$1$ be uneasy. You are too$5#1$ obliging, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse; 
203:176,35[D  ]| but we really must take leave$0$. This has 
203:176,36[D  ]| been a most agreeable piece of news indeed. I shall just$5$ 
203:176,37[D  ]| go round$5$ by$4$ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole's; but I shall not stop$1$ three 
203:176,38[D  ]| minutes: and, $EM#J$Jane, you had better go home directly ~~ 
203:177,01[D  ]| I would not have you out$5$ in$4$ a shower! ~~ We think she is 
203:177,02[D  ]| the better for$4$ Highbury already. Thank you, we do 
203:177,03[D  ]| indeed. I shall not attempt$1$ calling on$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, for$3$ 
203:177,04[D  ]| I really do not think she cares$1$ for$4$ any*thing but \boiled\ 
203:177,05[D  ]| pork: when we dress$1$ the leg it will$1$ be another thing. 
203:177,06[D  ]| Good morning to$4$ you, my dear$2#1$ sir. Oh! $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
203:177,07[D  ]| is coming too$5#2$. Well$7$, that$6#2$ is so$5#1$ very! ~~ I am sure if $EM#J$Jane 
203:177,08[D  ]| is tired, you will$1$ be so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ give her your arm$0$. ~~ 
203:177,09[D  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins. ~~ Good morning to$4$ you." 
203:177,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, alone with her father had half her attention 
203:177,11['  ]| wanted by$4$ him, while$3$ he lamented that$3$ young people 
203:177,12['  ]| would be in$4$ such a hurry$0$ to$9$ marry ~~ and to$9$ marry 
203:177,13['  ]| strangers too$5#2$ ~~ and the other half she could give to$4$ her 
203:177,14['  ]| own$2$ view$0$ of the subject$0$. 
203:177,14@a   | It was to$4$ herself an amusing 
203:177,15@a   | and a very welcome$2$ piece of news, as proving that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
203:177,16@a   | could not have suffered long; but she was sorry 
203:177,17@a   | for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet: $EM#M$Harriet must feel it ~~ and all that$6#1$ she could 
203:177,18@a   | hope$1$ was, by$4$ giving the first information herself, to$9$ save$1$ 
203:177,19@a   | her from hearing it abruptly from others. It was now 
203:177,20@a   | about$4$ the time that$6#1$ she was likely to$9$ call$1$. If she were to$9$ 
203:177,21@a   | meet$1$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates in$4$ her way! ~~ 
203:177,21['  ]| and upon$4$ its beginning to$9$ 
203:177,22['  ]| rain$1$, $EM#A$Emma was obliged to$9$ expect that$3$ the weather would 
203:177,23['  ]| be detaining her at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, and that$3$ the intelligence 
203:177,24['  ]| would undoubtedly rush upon$4$ her without 
203:177,25['  ]| preparation. 
203:177,26['  ]| The shower was heavy, but short; and it had not been 
203:177,27['  ]| over five minutes, when in$5$ came $EM#M$Harriet, with just$5$ the 
203:177,28['  ]| heated, agitated look$0$ which$6#1$ hurrying thither with a full 
203:177,29['  ]| heart was likely to$9$ give; and the 
203:177,29[M  ]| "Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
203:177,30[M  ]| what do you think has happened!" 
203:177,30['  ]| which$6#1$ instantly 
203:177,31['  ]| burst$1$ forth, had all the evidence of corresponding perturbation. 
203:177,32['  ]| As the blow was given, $EM#A$Emma felt that$3$ she 
203:177,33['  ]| could not now shew$1$ greater kindness than in$4$ listening; 
203:177,34['  ]| and $EM#M$Harriet, unchecked, ran eagerly through$4$ what she 
203:177,35['  ]| had to$9$ tell. 
203:177,35[M   | "She had set$1$ out$5$ from $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's half 
203:177,36[M   | an hour ago ~~ she had been afraid it would rain$1$ ~~ she had 
203:177,37[M   | been afraid it would pour down$5$ every moment ~~ but she 
203:177,38[M   | thought$1$ she might get to$4$ Hartfield first ~~ she had hurried 
203:178,01[M   | on$5$ as fast as possible; but then, as she was passing by$4$ 
203:178,02[M   | the house where a young woman was making up$5$ a gown 
203:178,03[M   | for$4$ her, she thought$1$ she would just$5$ step$1$ in$5$ and see how 
203:178,04[M   | it went on$5$; and though she did not seem to$9$ stay$1$ half 
203:178,05[M   | a moment there, soon after$3$ she came out$5$ it began to$9$ rain$1$, 
203:178,06[M   | and she did not know what to$9$ do; so$3$ she ran on$5$ directly, 
203:178,07[M   | as fast as she could, and took shelter at $EM#Q1$Ford's." ~~ 
203:178,08['  ]| $EM#Q1$Ford's was the principal$2$ woollen-draper, linen-draper, and 
203:178,09['  ]| haberdasher's shop united; the shop first in$4$ size and 
203:178,10['  ]| fashion$0$ in$4$ the place$0$. ~~ 
203:178,10[M  ]| "And so$3$, there she had set$1#1$, without 
203:178,11[M  ]| an idea of any*thing in$4$ the world, full ten minutes, 
203:178,12[M  ]| perhaps ~~ when, all of a sudden$0$, who$6#2$ should come in$5$ ~~ to$9$ 
203:178,13[M  ]| be sure it was so$5#1$ very odd! ~~ but they always dealt at 
203:178,14[M  ]| $EM#Q1$Ford's ~~ who$6#2$ should come in$5$, but $EM#R3$Elizabeth*Martin and 
203:178,15[M  ]| her brother! ~~ Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse! only think. I 
203:178,16[M  ]| thought$1$ I should have fainted. I did not know what to$9$ do. 
203:178,17[M  ]| I was sitting near$4$ the door ~~ $EM#R3$Elizabeth saw me directly; 
203:178,18[M  ]| but he did not; he was busy with the umbrella. I am 
203:178,19[M  ]| sure she saw me, but she looked away directly, and took 
203:178,20[M  ]| no$2$ notice$0$; and they both went to$4$ quite the farther end$0$ 
203:178,21[M  ]| of the shop; and I kept sitting near$4$ the door! ~~ Oh! 
203:178,22[M  ]| dear$7$; I was so$5#1$ miserable! I am sure I must have been 
203:178,23[M  ]| as white as my gown. I could not go away you know, 
203:178,24[M  ]| because of the rain$0$; but I did so$5#1$ wish$1$ myself any*where 
203:178,25[M  ]| in$4$ the world but there. ~~ Oh! dear$7$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse ~~ 
203:178,26[M  ]| well$7$, at last$0$, I fancy$1$, he looked round$5$ and saw me; for$3$ 
203:178,27[M  ]| instead of going on$5$ with their buyings, they began 
203:178,28[M  ]| whispering to$4$ one another. I am sure they were talking 
203:178,29[M  ]| of me; and I could not help$1$ thinking that$3$ he was persuading 
203:178,30[M  ]| her to$9$ speak to$4$ me ~~ (do you think he was, 
203:178,31[M  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse?) ~~ for$3$ presently she came forward$5$ ~~ 
203:178,32[M  ]| came quite up$5$ to$4$ me, and asked me how I did, and seemed 
203:178,33[M  ]| ready to$9$ shake$1$ hands, if I would. She did not do any of 
203:178,34[M  ]| it in$4$ the same way that$6#1$ she used; I could see she was 
203:178,35[M  ]| altered; but, however, she seemed to$9$ \try\ to$9$ be very 
203:178,36[M  ]| friendly, and we shook hands, and stood talking some 
203:178,37[M  ]| time; but I know no$2$ more what I said ~~ I was in$4$ such 
203:178,38[M  ]| a tremble$0$! ~~ I remember she said she was sorry we never 
203:179,01[M  ]| met now; which$6#1$ I thought$1$ almost too$5#1$ kind$2$! Dear$2#1$, 
203:179,02[M  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, I was absolutely miserable! By$4$ that$6#2$ 
203:179,03[M  ]| time, it was beginning to$9$ hold$1$ up$5$, and I was determined 
203:179,04[M  ]| that$3$ nothing should stop$1$ me from getting away ~~ and 
203:179,05[M  ]| then ~~ only think! ~~ I found he was coming up$5$ towards 
203:179,06[M  ]| me too$5#2$ ~~ slowly you know, and as if he did not quite 
203:179,07[M  ]| know what to$9$ do; and so$3$ he came and spoke, and 
203:179,08[M  ]| I answered ~~ and I stood for$4$ a minute$0$, feeling dreadfully, 
203:179,09[M  ]| you know, one can't tell how; and then I took courage, 
203:179,10[M  ]| and said it did not rain$1$, and I must go; and so$3$ off I set$1$; 
203:179,11[M  ]| and I had not got three yards from the door, when he 
203:179,12[M  ]| came after$4$ me, only to$9$ say, if I was going to$4$ Hartfield, he 
203:179,13[M  ]| thought$1$ I had much better go round$5$ by$4$ $EM#F$Mr%*Cole's stables, 
203:179,14[M  ]| for$3$ I should find the near$2$ way quite floated by$4$ this rain$0$. 
203:179,15[M  ]| Oh! dear$7$, I thought$1$ it would have been the death of me! 
203:179,16[M  ]| So$3$ I said, I was very much obliged to$4$ him: you know 
203:179,17[M  ]| I could not do less; and then he went back$5$ to$4$ $EM#R3$Elizabeth, 
203:179,18[M  ]| and I came round$5$ by$4$ the stables ~~ I believe I did ~~ but 
203:179,19[M  ]| I hardly knew where I was, or any*thing about$4$ it. Oh! 
203:179,20[M  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, I would rather done any*thing than 
203:179,21[M  ]| have had it happen: and yet, you know, there was a sort 
203:179,22[M  ]| of satisfaction in$4$ seeing him behave so$5#1$ pleasantly and so$5#1$ 
203:179,23[M  ]| kindly. And $EM#R3$Elizabeth, too$5#2$! Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, do 
203:179,24[M  ]| talk$1$ to$4$ me and make$1$ me comfortable again." 
203:179,25['  ]| Very sincerely did $EM#A$Emma wish$1$ to$9$ do so$5#2$; but it was not 
203:179,26['  ]| immediately in$4$ her power. She was obliged to$9$ stop$1$ and 
203:179,27['  ]| think. She was not thoroughly comfortable herself. 
203:179,28@a   | The young man's conduct$0$, and his sister's, seemed the 
203:179,29@a   | result$0$ of real feeling, and she could not but pity$1$ them. 
203:179,30@a   | As $EM#M$Harriet described it, there had been an interesting 
203:179,31@a   | mixture of wounded affection and genuine delicacy in$4$ 
203:179,32@a   | their behaviour. But she had believed them to$9$ be well*meaning, 
203:179,33@a   | worthy people before$5$; and what difference did 
203:179,34@a   | this make$1$ in$4$ the evils of the connection? It was folly to$9$ 
203:179,35@a   | be disturbed by$4$ it. Of course$8$, he must be sorry to$9$ lose 
203:179,36@a   | her ~~ they must be all sorry. Ambition, as well$5$ as love$0$, 
203:179,37@a   | had probably been mortified. They might all have hoped 
203:179,38@a   | to$9$ rise$1$ by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's acquaintance: and besides, what was 
203:180,01@a   | the value$0$ of $EM#M$Harriet's description? ~~ so$5#1$ easily pleased ~~ so$5#1$ 
203:180,02@a   | little discerning; ~~ what signified her praise$0$? 
203:180,03['  ]| She exerted herself; and did try to$9$ make$1$ her comfortable, 
203:180,04['  ]| by$4$ considering all that$6#1$ had passed as a mere 
203:180,05['  ]| trifle$0$, and quite unworthy of being$1$ dwelt on$5$. 
203:180,06[A  ]| "It might be distressing, for$4$ the moment," 
203:180,06['  ]| said she; 
203:180,07[A  ]| "but you seem to$9$ have behaved extremely well$5$; and 
203:180,08[A  ]| it is over ~~ and may$1$ never ~~ can never, as a first meeting, 
203:180,09[A  ]| occur again, and therefore you need$1$ not think about$4$ it." 
203:180,10['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet said, 
203:180,10[M  ]| "very true;" 
203:180,10['  ]| and she 
203:180,10[M  ]| "would not think 
203:180,11[M  ]| about$4$ it;" 
203:180,11['  ]| but still$5$ she talked of it ~~ still$5$ she could talk$1$ 
203:180,12['  ]| of nothing else; and $EM#A$Emma, at last$0$, in$4$ order to$9$ put the 
203:180,13['  ]| $EM#R1$Martins out$5$ of her head$0$, was obliged to$9$ hurry$1$ on$5$ the news, 
203:180,14['  ]| which$6#1$ she had meant to$9$ give with so$5#1$ much tender$2$ caution$0$; 
203:180,15['  ]| hardly knowing herself 
203:180,15@a   | whether to$9$ rejoice or be angry, 
203:180,16@a   | ashamed or only amused, at such a state$0$ of mind$0$ in$4$ poor 
203:180,17@a   | $EM#M$Harriet ~~ such a conclusion of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's importance 
203:180,18@a   | with her! 
203:180,19@a   | $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's rights, however, gradually revived. Though 
203:180,20@a   | she did not feel the first intelligence as she might have 
203:180,21@a   | done the day before$5$, or an hour before$5$, its interest$0$ soon 
203:180,22@a   | increased; and before$3$ their first conversation was over, 
203:180,23@a   | she had talked herself into all the sensations of curiosity, 
203:180,24@a   | wonder$0$ and regret$0$, pain$0$ and pleasure, as to$4$ this fortunate 
203:180,25@a   | $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins, which$6#1$ could conduce to$9$ place$1$ the $EM#R1$Martins 
203:180,26@a   | under proper subordination in$4$ her fancy$0$. 
203:180,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma learned to$9$ be 
203:180,27@a   | rather glad that$3$ there had been 
203:180,28@a   | such a meeting. It had been serviceable in$4$ deadening
203:180,29@a   | the first shock$0$, without retaining any influence$0$ to$9$ alarm$1$. 
203:180,30@a   | As $EM#M$Harriet now lived, the $EM#R1$Martins could not get at her, 
203:180,31@a   | without seeking her, where hitherto they had wanted 
203:180,32@a   | either the courage or the condescension to$9$ seek her; for$3$ 
203:180,33@a   | since her refusal of the brother, the sisters had never been 
203:180,34@a   | at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's; and a twelvemonth might pass$1$ without 
203:180,35@a   | their being$1$ thrown together again, with any necessity, 
203:180,36@a   | or even$5$ any power of speech. 
204:181,01['  ]| Human nature is so$5#1$ well$5$ disposed towards those who$6#1$ 
204:181,02['  ]| are in$4$ interesting situations, that$3$ a young person, who$6#1$ 
204:181,03['  ]| either marries or dies, is sure of being$1$ kindly spoken of. 
204:181,04['  ]| A week had not passed since $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins's name$0$ was 
204:181,05['  ]| first mentioned in$4$ Highbury, before$3$ she was, by$4$ some 
204:181,06['  ]| means$0$ or other, discovered to$9$ have every recommendation 
204:181,07['  ]| of person and mind$0$; to$9$ be handsome, elegant, highly 
204:181,08['  ]| accomplished, and perfectly amiable: and when $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
204:181,09['  ]| himself arrived to$9$ triumph$1$ in$4$ his happy prospects, and 
204:181,10['  ]| circulate the fame of her merits, there was very little 
204:181,11['  ]| more for$4$ him to$9$ do, than to$9$ tell her Christian name$0$, and 
204:181,12['  ]| say whose$6#1$ music she principally played. 
204:181,13['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton returned, a very happy man. He had gone 
204:181,14['  ]| away rejected and mortified ~~ disappointed in$4$ a very 
204:181,15['  ]| sanguine hope$0$, after$4$ a series of what had appeared to$4$ him 
204:181,16['  ]| strong encouragement; and not only losing the right$2#1$ 
204:181,17['  ]| lady, but finding himself debased to$4$ the level of a very 
204:181,18['  ]| wrong one. He had gone away deeply offended ~~ he came 
204:181,19['  ]| back$5$ engaged to$4$ another ~~ and to$4$ another as superior, 
204:181,20['  ]| of course$8$, to$4$ the first, as under such circumstances what 
204:181,21['  ]| is gained always is to$4$ what is lost. He came back$5$ gay 
204:181,22['  ]| and self-satisfied, eager and busy, caring nothing for$4$ 
204:181,23['  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, and defying $EM#M$Miss*Smith. 
204:181,24['  ]| The charming $EM#I$Augusta*Hawkins, in$4$ addition to$4$ all the 
204:181,25['  ]| usual advantages of perfect$2$ beauty and merit$0$, was in$4$ 
204:181,26['  ]| possession of an independent fortune, of so$5#1$ many thousands 
204:181,27['  ]| as would always be called ten; a point$0$ of some 
204:181,28['  ]| dignity, as well$5$ as some convenience: the story told well$5$; 
204:181,29['  ]| he had not thrown himself away ~~ he had gained a woman 
204:181,30['  ]| of 10*000\l\% or thereabouts; and he had gained her with 
204:181,31['  ]| such delightful rapidity ~~ the first hour of introduction 
204:181,32['  ]| had been so$5#1$ very soon followed by$4$ distinguishing notice$0$; 
204:181,33['  ]| the history which$6#1$ he had to$9$ give $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole of the rise$0$ and 
204:182,01['  ]| progress of the affair was so$5#1$ glorious ~~ the steps so$5#1$ quick$2$, 
204:182,02['  ]| from the accidental rencontre, to$4$ the dinner at $EM#X1$Mr%*Green's, 
204:182,03['  ]| and the party at $EM#X2$Mrs%*Brown's ~~ smiles and blushes rising 
204:182,04['  ]| in$4$ importance ~~ with consciousness and agitation richly 
204:182,05['  ]| scattered ~~ the lady had been so$5#1$ easily impressed ~~ so$5#1$ 
204:182,06['  ]| sweetly disposed ~~ had in$4$ short, to$9$ use$1$ a most intelligible 
204:182,07['  ]| phrase, been so$5#1$ very ready to$9$ have him, that$3$ vanity and 
204:182,08['  ]| prudence were equally contented. 
204:182,09['  ]| He had caught both substance and shadow ~~ both 
204:182,10['  ]| fortune and affection, and was just$5$ the happy man he 
204:182,11['  ]| ought to$9$ be; talking only of himself and his own$2$ concerns$0$ ~~ 
204:182,12['  ]| expecting to$9$ be congratulated ~~ ready to$9$ be 
204:182,13['  ]| laughed at ~~ and, with cordial$2$, fearless smiles, now addressing 
204:182,14['  ]| all the young ladies of the place$0$, to$4$ whom$6#1$, a few 
204:182,15['  ]| weeks ago, he would have been more cautiously gallant. 
204:182,16['  ]| The wedding was no$2$ distant event, as the parties had 
204:182,17['  ]| only themselves to$9$ please, and nothing but the necessary 
204:182,18['  ]| preparations to$9$ wait for$4$; and when he set$1$ out$5$ for$4$ Bath$0#1$ 
204:182,19['  ]| again, there was a general$2$ expectation, which$6#1$ a certain 
204:182,20['  ]| glance$0$ of $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole's did not seem to$9$ contradict, that$3$ 
204:182,21['  ]| when he next entered Highbury he would bring his bride. 
204:182,22['  ]| During his present$2$ short stay$0$, $EM#A$Emma had barely seen 
204:182,23['  ]| him; but just$5$ enough to$9$ feel that$3$ the first meeting was 
204:182,24['  ]| over, and to$9$ give her the impression of 
204:182,24@a   | his not being$1$ 
204:182,25@a   | improved by$4$ the mixture of pique and pretension, now 
204:182,26@a   | spread over his air. 
204:182,26['  ]| She was, in$4$ fact, beginning very much 
204:182,27['  ]| to$9$ wonder$1$ that$3$ she had ever thought$1$ him pleasing at all; 
204:182,28['  ]| and his sight was so$5#1$ inseparably connected with some 
204:182,29['  ]| very disagreeable feelings, that$3$ except in$4$ a moral light$0$, 
204:182,30['  ]| as a penance, a lesson, a source of profitable humiliation 
204:182,31['  ]| to$4$ her own$2$ mind$0$, she would have been thankful to$9$ be 
204:182,32['  ]| assured of never seeing him again. 
204:182,32@a   | She wished him very 
204:182,33@a   | well$5$; but he gave her pain$0$, and his welfare twenty miles 
204:182,34@a   | off would administer most satisfaction. 
204:182,35@a   | The pain$0$ of his continued residence in$4$ Highbury, however, 
204:182,36@a   | must certainly be lessened by$4$ his marriage. Many 
204:182,37@a   | vain solicitudes would be prevented ~~ many awkwardnesses 
204:182,38@a   | smoothed by$4$ it. A \$EM#I$Mrs%*Elton\ would be an excuse$0$ 
204:183,01@a   | for$4$ any change$0$ of intercourse; former intimacy might 
204:183,02@a   | sink without remark$0$. It would be almost beginning their 
204:183,03@a   | life of civility again. 
204:183,04['  ]| Of the lady, individually, $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ very little. 
204:183,05@a   | She was good enough for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, no$2$ doubt$0$; accomplished 
204:183,06@a   | enough for$4$ Highbury ~~ handsome enough ~~ to$9$ look$1$ 
204:183,07@a   | plain, probably, by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's side$0$. 
204:183,07['  ]| As to$4$ connection, 
204:183,08['  ]| there $EM#A$Emma was perfectly easy; persuaded, that$3$ 
204:183,08@a   | after$4$ 
204:183,09@a   | all his own$2$ vaunted claims and disdain$0$ of $EM#M$Harriet, he had 
204:183,10@a   | done nothing. On$4$ that$6#2$ article, truth seemed attainable. 
204:183,11@a   | \What\ she was, must be uncertain; but \who$6#2$\ she was, 
204:183,12@a   | might be found out$5$; and setting aside the 10*000\l\% it did 
204:183,13@a   | not appear that$3$ she was at all $EM#M$Harriet's superior. She 
204:183,14@a   | brought no$2$ name$0$, no$2$ blood, no$2$ alliance. $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins 
204:183,15@a   | was the youngest of the two daughters of a Bristol ~~ 
204:183,16@a   | merchant, of course$8$, he must be called; but, as the 
204:183,17@a   | whole$0$ of the profits of his mercantile life appeared so$5#1$ very 
204:183,18@a   | moderate, it was not unfair to$9$ guess$1$ the dignity of his 
204:183,19@a   | line of trade had been very moderate also. Part$0$ of every 
204:183,20@a   | winter she had been used to$9$ spend in$4$ Bath$0#1$; but Bristol 
204:183,21@a   | was her home, the very heart of Bristol; for$3$ though the 
204:183,22@a   | father and mother had died some years ago, an uncle remained ~~ 
204:183,23@a   | in$4$ the law line ~~ nothing more distinctly honourable 
204:183,24@a   | was hazarded of him, than that$3$ he was in$4$ the law 
204:183,25@a   | line; and with him the daughter had lived. 
204:183,25['  ]| $EM#A$Emma 
204:183,26['  ]| guessed him to$9$ be 
204:183,26@a   | the drudge of some attorney, and too$5#1$ 
204:183,27@a   | stupid to$9$ rise$1$. And all the grandeur of the connection 
204:183,28@a   | seemed dependent on$4$ the elder sister, who$6#1$ was \very well$5$\ 
204:183,29@a   | \married\, to$4$ a gentleman in$4$ a \great way\, near$4$ Bristol, 
204:183,30@a   | who$6#1$ kept two carriages! That$6#2$ was the wind-up of the 
204:183,31@a   | history; that$6#2$ was the glory$0$ of $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins. 
204:183,32@a   | Could she but have given $EM#M$Harriet her feelings about$4$ it 
204:183,33@a   | all! She had talked her into love$0$; but alas! she was 
204:183,34@a   | not so$5#1$ easily to$9$ be talked out$5$ of it. The charm$0$ of an object$0$ 
204:183,35@a   | to$9$ occupy the many vacancies of $EM#M$Harriet's mind$0$ was not 
204:183,36@a   | to$9$ be talked away. He might be superseded by$4$ another; 
204:183,37@a   | he certainly would indeed; nothing could be clearer; 
204:183,38@a   | even$5$ a $EM#R$Robert*Martin would have been sufficient; but 
204:184,01@a   | nothing else, she feared, would cure$1$ her. $EM#M$Harriet was one 
204:184,02@a   | of those, who$6#1$, having once begun, would be always in$4$ 
204:184,03@a   | love$0$. And now, poor girl! she was considerably worse 
204:184,04@a   | from this re-appearance of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. She was always 
204:184,05@a   | having a glimpse of him somewhere or other. 
204:184,05['  ]| $EM#A$Emma 
204:184,06['  ]| saw him only once; but two or three times every day 
204:184,07['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was sure \just$5$\ to$9$ meet$1$ with him, or \just$5$\ to$9$ miss 
204:184,08['  ]| him, \just$5$\ to$9$ hear his voice, or see his shoulder, \just$5$\ to$9$ 
204:184,09['  ]| have something occur to$9$ preserve him in$4$ her fancy$0$, in$4$ 
204:184,10['  ]| all the favouring warmth of surprize$0$ and conjecture$0$. 
204:184,11['  ]| She was, moreover, perpetually hearing about$4$ him; for$3$, 
204:184,12['  ]| excepting when at Hartfield, she was always among those 
204:184,13['  ]| who$6#1$ saw no$2$ fault in$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, and found nothing so$5#1$ 
204:184,14['  ]| interesting as the discussion of his concerns$0$; and every 
204:184,15['  ]| report$0$, therefore, every guess$0$ ~~ all that$6#1$ had already 
204:184,16['  ]| occurred, all that$6#1$ might occur in$4$ the arrangement of his 
204:184,17['  ]| affairs, comprehending income, servants, and furniture, 
204:184,18['  ]| was continually in$4$ agitation around$4$ her. Her regard$0$ was 
204:184,19['  ]| receiving strength by$4$ invariable praise$0$ of him, and her 
204:184,20['  ]| regrets kept alive, and feelings irritated by$4$ ceaseless repetitions 
204:184,21['  ]| of $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins's happiness, and continual 
204:184,22['  ]| observation of, how much he seemed attached! ~~ his air 
204:184,23['  ]| as he walked by$4$ the house ~~ the very sitting of his hat, 
204:184,24['  ]| being$1$ all in$4$ proof of how much he was in$4$ love$0$! 
204:184,25['  ]| Had it been allowable entertainment, had there been 
204:184,26['  ]| no$2$ pain$0$ to$4$ her friend, or reproach$0$ to$4$ herself, in$4$ the 
204:184,27['  ]| waverings of $EM#M$Harriet's mind$0$, $EM#A$Emma would have been 
204:184,28['  ]| amused by$4$ its variations. 
204:184,28@a   | Sometimes $EM#H$Mr%*Elton predominated, 
204:184,29@a   | sometimes the $EM#R1$Martins; and each was occasionally 
204:184,30@a   | useful as a check$0$ to$4$ the other. 
204:184,30['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
204:184,31['  ]| engagement had been the cure$0$ of the agitation of meeting 
204:184,32['  ]| $EM#R$Mr%*Martin. The unhappiness produced by$4$ the knowledge 
204:184,33['  ]| of that$6#2$ engagement had been a little put aside by$4$ 
204:184,34['  ]| $EM#R3$Elizabeth*Martin's calling at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's a few days 
204:184,35['  ]| afterwards. $EM#M$Harriet had not been at home; but a note$0$ 
204:184,36['  ]| had been prepared and left for$4$ her, written in$4$ the very 
204:184,37['  ]| style to$9$ touch$1$; a small mixture of reproach$0$, with a great 
204:184,38['  ]| deal$0$ of kindness; and till $EM#H$Mr%*Elton himself appeared, 
204:185,01['  ]| she had been much occupied by$4$ it, continually pondering 
204:185,02['  ]| over what could be done in$4$ return$0$, and wishing to$9$ do more 
204:185,03['  ]| than she dared to$9$ confess. But $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, in$4$ person, had 
204:185,04['  ]| driven away all such cares$0$. While$3$ he staid, the $EM#R1$Martins 
204:185,05['  ]| were forgotten; and on$4$ the very morning of his setting 
204:185,06['  ]| off for$4$ Bath$0#1$ again, $EM#A$Emma, to$9$ dissipate some of the distress$0$ 
204:185,07['  ]| it occasioned, judged it best for$4$ her to$9$ return$1$ $EM#R3$Elizabeth*Martin's 
204:185,08['  ]| visit$0$. 
204:185,09@a   | How that$6#2$ visit$0$ was to$9$ be acknowledged ~~ what would 
204:185,10@a   | be necessary ~~ and what might be safest, had been a point$0$ 
204:185,11@a   | of some doubtful consideration. Absolute neglect$0$ of the 
204:185,12@a   | mother and sisters, when invited to$9$ come, would be 
204:185,13@a   | ingratitude. It must not be: and yet the danger of 
204:185,14@a   | a renewal of the acquaintance! ~~ 
204:185,15['  ]| After$4$ much thinking, 
204:185,15@a   | she could determine on$4$ nothing 
204:185,16@a   | better, than $EM#M$Harriet's returning the visit$0$; but in$4$ a way 
204:185,17@a   | that$6#1$, if they had understanding, should convince them 
204:185,18@a   | that$3$ it was to$9$ be only a formal acquaintance. She meant 
204:185,19@a   | to$9$ take her in$4$ the carriage, leave$1$ her at the Abbey*Mill, 
204:185,20@a   | while$3$ she drove a little farther, and call$1$ for$4$ her again so$5#1$ 
204:185,21@a   | soon, as to$9$ allow no$2$ time for$4$ insidious applications or 
204:185,22@a   | dangerous recurrences to$4$ the past$0$, and give the most 
204:185,23@a   | decided proof of what degree of intimacy was chosen for$4$ 
204:185,24@a   | the future. 
204:185,25@a   | She could think of nothing better: and though there 
204:185,26@a   | was something in$4$ it which$6#1$ her own$2$ heart could not approve ~~ 
204:185,27@a   | something of ingratitude, merely glossed over ~~ 
204:185,28@a   | it must be done, or what would become of $EM#M$Harriet? 
205:186,01['  ]| Small heart had $EM#M$Harriet for$4$ visiting. Only half an 
205:186,02['  ]| hour before$3$ her friend called for$4$ her at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, 
205:186,03['  ]| her evil stars had led her to$4$ the very spot where, at that$6#2$ 
205:186,04['  ]| moment, a trunk, directed to$4$ \$EM#H$The*Rev%*Philip*Elton\, 
205:186,05['  ]| \White-Hart\, \Bath$0#1$\, was to$9$ be seen under the operation of 
205:186,06['  ]| being$1$ lifted into the butcher's cart, which$6#1$ was to$9$ convey 
205:186,07['  ]| it to$4$ where the coaches past$1$; and every*thing in$4$ this 
205:186,08['  ]| world, excepting that$6#2$ trunk and the direction, was consequently 
205:186,09['  ]| a blank$0$. 
205:186,10['  ]| She went, however; and when they reached the farm, 
205:186,11['  ]| and she was to$9$ be put down$5$, at the end$0$ of the broad, neat 
205:186,12['  ]| gravel-walk, which$6#1$ led between espalier apple-trees to$4$ the 
205:186,13['  ]| front$2$ door, the sight of every*thing which$6#1$ had given her 
205:186,14['  ]| so$5#1$ much pleasure the autumn before$5$, was beginning to$9$ 
205:186,15['  ]| revive a little local agitation; and when they parted, 
205:186,16['  ]| $EM#A$Emma observed her to$9$ be looking around$5$ with a sort of 
205:186,17['  ]| fearful curiosity, which$6#1$ determined her not to$9$ allow the 
205:186,18['  ]| visit$0$ to$9$ exceed the proposed quarter$0#1$ of an hour. She 
205:186,19['  ]| went on$5$ herself, to$9$ give that$6#2$ portion of time to$4$ an old 
205:186,20['  ]| servant who$6#1$ was married, and settled in$4$ Donwell. 
205:186,21['  ]| The quarter$0#1$ of an hour brought her punctually to$4$ the 
205:186,22['  ]| white gate again; and $EM#M$Miss*Smith receiving her summons, 
205:186,23['  ]| was with her without delay$0$, and unattended by$4$ any 
205:186,24['  ]| alarming young man. She came solitarily down$4$ the gravel 
205:186,25['  ]| walk$0$ ~~ a $EM#R3$Miss*Martin just$5$ appearing at the door, and 
205:186,26['  ]| parting with her seemingly with ceremonious civility. 
205:186,27['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet could not very soon give an intelligent account$0$. 
205:186,28['  ]| She was feeling too$5#1$ much; but at last$0$ $EM#A$Emma collected 
205:186,29['  ]| from her enough to$9$ understand the sort of meeting, and 
205:186,30['  ]| the sort of pain$0$ it was creating. She had seen only 
205:186,31['  ]| $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin and the two girls. They had received her 
205:186,32['  ]| doubtingly, if not coolly; and nothing beyond$4$ the 
205:186,33['  ]| merest common-place had been talked almost all the time 
205:187,01['  ]| ~~ till just$5$ at last$0$, when $EM#R2$Mrs%*Martin's saying, all of 
205:187,02['  ]| a sudden$0$, that$3$ she thought$1$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith was grown, had 
205:187,03['  ]| brought on$5$ a more interesting subject$0$, and a warmer 
205:187,04['  ]| manner. In$4$ that$6#2$ very room she had been measured last$2$ 
205:187,05['  ]| September, with her two friends. There were the pencilled 
205:187,06['  ]| marks and memorandums on$4$ the wainscot by$4$ 
205:187,07['  ]| the window. \He\ had done it. They all seemed to$9$ remember 
205:187,08['  ]| the day, the hour, the party, the occasion$0$ ~~ to$9$ 
205:187,09['  ]| feel the same consciousness, the same regrets ~~ to$9$ be 
205:187,10['  ]| ready to$9$ return$1$ to$4$ the same good understanding; and 
205:187,11['  ]| they were just$5$ growing again like$4$ themselves, ($EM#M$Harriet, 
205:187,12['  ]| as $EM#A$Emma must suspect, as ready as the best of them to$9$ 
205:187,13['  ]| be cordial$2$ and happy,) when the carriage re-appeared, 
205:187,14['  ]| and all was over. The style of the visit$0$, and the shortness 
205:187,15['  ]| of it, were then felt to$9$ be decisive. Fourteen minutes 
205:187,16['  ]| to$9$ be given to$4$ those with whom$6#1$ she had thankfully passed 
205:187,17['  ]| six weeks not six months ago! ~~ $EM#A$Emma could not but 
205:187,18['  ]| picture$1$ it all, and feel how justly they might resent, how 
205:187,19['  ]| naturally $EM#M$Harriet must suffer. 
205:187,19@a   | It was a bad business. 
205:187,20@a   | She would have given a great deal$0$, or endured a great 
205:187,21@a   | deal$0$, to$9$ have had the $EM#R1$Martins in$4$ a higher rank$0$ of life. 
205:187,22@a   | They were so$5#1$ deserving, that$3$ a \little\ higher should have 
205:187,23@a   | been enough: but as it was, how could she have done 
205:187,24@a   | otherwise? ~~ Impossible! ~~ She could not repent. They 
205:187,25@a   | must be separated; but there was a great deal$0$ of pain$0$ 
205:187,26@a   | in$4$ the process ~~ 
205:187,26['  ]| so$5#1$ much to$4$ herself at this time, that$3$ she 
205:187,27['  ]| soon felt the necessity of a little consolation, and resolved 
205:187,28['  ]| on$4$ going home by$4$ way of Randalls to$9$ procure it. 
205:187,28@a   | Her 
205:187,29@a   | mind$0$ was quite sick of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton and the $EM#R1$Martins. The 
205:187,30@a   | refreshment of Randalls was absolutely necessary. 
205:187,31['  ]| It was a good scheme$0$; but on$4$ driving to$4$ the door they 
205:187,32['  ]| heard that$3$ neither 
205:187,32@x   | "master nor mistress was at home;" 
205:187,33['  ]| they had both been out$5$ some time; the man believed 
205:187,34['  ]| they were gone to$4$ Hartfield. 
205:187,35[A  ]| "This is too$5#1$ bad," 
205:187,35['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, as they turned away. 
205:187,36[A  ]| "And now we shall just$5$ miss them; too$5#1$ provoking! 
205:187,37[A  ]| ~~ I do not know when I have been so$5#1$ disappointed." 
205:187,38['  ]| And she leaned back$5$ in$4$ the corner, to$9$ indulge her murmurs, 
205:188,01['  ]| or to$9$ reason$1$ them away; probably a little of both ~~ such 
205:188,02['  ]| being$1$ the commonest process of a not ill-disposed mind$0$. 
205:188,03['  ]| Presently the carriage stopt; she looked up$5$; it was stopt 
205:188,04['  ]| by$4$ $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, who$6#1$ were standing to$9$ speak to$4$ 
205:188,05['  ]| her. There was instant$2$ pleasure in$4$ the sight of them, and 
205:188,06['  ]| still$5$ greater pleasure was conveyed in$4$ sound$0$ ~~ for$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
205:188,07['  ]| immediately accosted her with, 
205:188,08[N  ]| "How d'ye do? ~~ how d'ye do? ~~ We have been sitting 
205:188,09[N  ]| with your father ~~ glad to$9$ see him so$5#1$ well$5$. $EM#E$Frank comes 
205:188,10[N  ]| to-morrow ~~ I had a letter this morning ~~ we see him 
205:188,11[N  ]| to-morrow by$4$ dinner time to$4$ a certainty ~~ he is at Oxford 
205:188,12[N  ]| to-day, and he comes for$4$ a whole$2$ fortnight; I knew it 
205:188,13[N  ]| would be so$5#2$. If he had come at Christmas he could not 
205:188,14[N  ]| have staid three days; I was always glad he did not 
205:188,15[N  ]| come at Christmas; now we are going to$9$ have just$5$ the 
205:188,16[N  ]| right$2#1$ weather for$4$ him, fine, dry$2$, settled weather. We 
205:188,17[N  ]| shall enjoy him completely; every*thing has turned out$5$ 
205:188,18[N  ]| exactly as we could wish$1$." 
205:188,19['  ]| There was no$2$ resisting such news, no$2$ possibility of 
205:188,20['  ]| avoiding the influence$0$ of such a happy face$0$ as $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's, 
205:188,21['  ]| confirmed as it all was by$4$ the words and the countenance 
205:188,22['  ]| of his wife, fewer and quieter, but not less to$4$ the purpose. 
205:188,23['  ]| To$9$ know that$3$ \she\ thought$1$ his coming certain was enough 
205:188,24['  ]| to$9$ make$1$ $EM#A$Emma consider it so$5#2$, and sincerely did she 
205:188,25['  ]| rejoice in$4$ their joy. 
205:188,25@a   | It was a most delightful re-animation 
205:188,26@a   | of exhausted spirits. The worn-out past$0$ was sunk in$4$ the 
205:188,27@a   | freshness of what was coming; and in$4$ the rapidity of 
205:188,28@a   | half a moment's thought$0$, she hoped $EM#H$Mr%*Elton would 
205:188,29@a   | now be talked of no$2$ more. 
205:188,30['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston gave her the history of the engagements 
205:188,31['  ]| at Enscombe, which$6#1$ allowed his son to$9$ answer$1$ for$4$ having 
205:188,32['  ]| an entire fortnight at his command$0$, as well$5$ as the route 
205:188,33['  ]| and the method of his journey; and she listened, and 
205:188,34['  ]| smiled, and congratulated. 
205:188,35[N  ]| "I shall soon bring him over to$4$ Hartfield," 
205:188,35['  ]| said he, at 
205:188,36['  ]| the conclusion. 
205:188,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could imagine she saw a touch$0$ of the arm$0$ at 
205:188,38['  ]| this speech, from his wife. 
205:189,01[O  ]| "We had better move$1$ on$5$, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston," 
205:189,01['  ]| said she, 
205:189,01[O  ]| "we 
205:189,02[O  ]| are detaining the girls." 
205:189,03[N  ]| "Well$7$, well$7$, I am ready;" ~~ 
205:189,03['  ]| and turning again to$4$ 
205:189,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, 
205:189,04[N  ]| "but you must not be expecting such a \very\ fine 
205:189,05[N  ]| young man; you have only had \my\ account$0$ you know; 
205:189,06[N  ]| I dare$1#2$ say he is really nothing extraordinary:" ~~ 
205:189,06['  ]| though 
205:189,07['  ]| his own$2$ sparkling eyes at the moment were speaking 
205:189,08['  ]| a very different conviction. 
205:189,09['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could look$1$ perfectly unconscious and innocent, 
205:189,10['  ]| and answer$1$ in$4$ a manner that$6#1$ appropriated nothing. 
205:189,11[O  ]| "Think of me to-morrow, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, about$4$ four 
205:189,12[O  ]| o'clock," 
205:189,12['  ]| was $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's parting injunction; spoken 
205:189,13['  ]| with some anxiety, and meant only for$4$ her. 
205:189,14[N  ]| "Four o'clock! ~~ depend upon$4$ it he will$1$ be here by$4$ 
205:189,15[N  ]| three," 
205:189,15['  ]| was $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's quick$2$ amendment; and so$5#2$ 
205:189,16['  ]| ended a most satisfactory meeting. $EM#A$Emma's spirits were 
205:189,17['  ]| mounted quite up$5$ to$4$ happiness; 
205:189,17@a   | every*thing wore a different 
205:189,18@a   | air; $EM#ZI$James and his horses seemed not half so$5#1$ 
205:189,19@a   | sluggish as before$5$. 
205:189,19['  ]| When she looked at the hedges, she 
205:189,20['  ]| thought$1$ 
205:189,20@a   | the elder at least must soon be coming out$5$; 
205:189,20['  ]| and 
205:189,21['  ]| when she turned round$5$ to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, she saw 
205:189,21@a   | something 
205:189,22@a   | like$4$ a look$0$ of spring$0$, a tender$2$ smile$0$ even$5$ there. 
205:189,23[M  ]| "Will$1$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill pass$1$ through$4$ Bath$0#1$ as well$5$ 
205:189,24[M  ]| as Oxford?" ~~ 
205:189,24@a   | was a question$0$, however, which$6#1$ did not 
205:189,25@a   | augur much. 
205:189,26['  ]| But neither geography nor tranquillity could come all 
205:189,27['  ]| at once, and $EM#A$Emma was now in$4$ a humour to$9$ resolve$1$ that$3$ 
205:189,28['  ]| they should both come in$4$ time. 
205:189,29['  ]| The morning of the interesting day arrived, and 
205:189,30['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's faithful pupil did not forget either at ten, 
205:189,31['  ]| or eleven, or twelve o'clock, that$3$ she was to$9$ think of her 
205:189,32['  ]| at four. 
205:189,33[A  ]| "My dear$2#1$, dear$2#1$, anxious friend," ~~ 
205:189,33['  ]| said she, in$4$ mental 
205:189,34['  ]| soliloquy, while$4$ walking down*stairs from her own$2$ room, 
205:189,35[A  ]| "always over-careful of every*body's comfort$0$ but your 
205:189,36[A  ]| own$2$; I see you now in$4$ all your little fidgets, going again 
205:189,37[A  ]| and again into his room, to$9$ be sure that$3$ all is right$2#1$." 
205:189,38['  ]| The clock struck twelve as she passed through$4$ the hall. 
205:190,01[A  ]| "'Tis twelve, I shall not forget to$9$ think of you four 
205:190,02[A  ]| hours hence; and by$4$ this time to-morrow, perhaps, 
205:190,03[A  ]| or a little later, I may$1$ be thinking of the possibility 
205:190,04[A  ]| of their all calling here. I am sure they will$1$ bring him 
205:190,05[A  ]| soon." 
205:190,06['  ]| She opened the parlour door, and saw two gentlemen 
205:190,07['  ]| sitting with her father ~~ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston and his son. They 
205:190,08['  ]| had been arrived only a few minutes, and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
205:190,09['  ]| had scarcely finished his explanation of $EM#E$Frank's being$1$ a 
205:190,10['  ]| day before$4$ his time, and her father was yet in$4$ the midst 
205:190,11['  ]| of his very civil welcome$0$ and congratulations, when she 
205:190,12['  ]| appeared, to$9$ have her share$0$ of surprize$0$, introduction, and 
205:190,13['  ]| pleasure. 
205:190,14@a   | The $EM#E$Frank*Churchill so$5#1$ long talked of, so$5#1$ high in$4$ 
205:190,15@a   | interest$0$, was actually before$4$ her ~~ he was presented to$4$ 
205:190,16@a   | her, and she did not think too$5#1$ much had been said in$4$ his 
205:190,17@a   | praise$0$; he was a \very\ good*looking young man; height, 
205:190,18@a   | air, address$0$, all were unexceptionable, and his countenance 
205:190,19@a   | had a great deal$0$ of the spirit and liveliness of his 
205:190,20@a   | father's; he looked quick$2$ and sensible$2#2$. 
205:190,20['  ]| She felt immediately 
205:190,21['  ]| that$3$ she should like$1$ him; and there was a well-bred 
205:190,22['  ]| ease$0$ of manner, and a readiness to$9$ talk$1$, which$6#1$ 
205:190,23['  ]| convinced her that$3$ he came intending to$9$ be acquainted 
205:190,24['  ]| with her, and that$3$ acquainted they soon must be. 
205:190,25['  ]| He had reached Randalls the evening before$5$. She was 
205:190,26['  ]| pleased with the eagerness to$9$ arrive which$6#1$ had made 
205:190,27['  ]| him alter his plan, and travel earlier, later, and quicker, 
205:190,28['  ]| that$3$ he might gain$1$ half a day. 
205:190,29[N  ]| "I told you yesterday," 
205:190,29['  ]| cried $EM#N$Mr%*Weston with exultation, 
205:190,30[N  ]| "I told you all that$3$ he would be here before$4$ the 
205:190,31[N  ]| time named. I remembered what I used to$9$ do myself. 
205:190,32[N  ]| One cannot creep upon$4$ a journey; one cannot help$1$ 
205:190,33[N  ]| getting on$5$ faster than one has planned; and the pleasure 
205:190,34[N  ]| of coming in$5$ upon$4$ one's friends before$3$ the look-out 
205:190,35[N  ]| begins, is worth a great deal$0$ more than any little exertion 
205:190,36[N  ]| it needs." 
205:190,37[E  ]| "It is a great pleasure where one can indulge in$4$ it," 
205:190,38['  ]| said the young man, 
205:190,38[E  ]| "though there are not many houses 
205:191,01[E  ]| that$6#1$ I should presume on$4$ so$5#1$ far; but in$4$ coming \home\ 
205:191,02[E  ]| I felt I might do any*thing." 
205:191,03['  ]| The word \home\ made his father look$1$ on$4$ him with fresh 
205:191,04['  ]| complacency. $EM#A$Emma was directly sure that$3$ he knew 
205:191,05['  ]| how to$9$ make$1$ himself agreeable; the conviction was 
205:191,06['  ]| strengthened by$4$ what followed. He was very much 
205:191,07['  ]| pleased with Randalls, thought$1$ it a most admirably 
205:191,08['  ]| arranged house, would hardly allow it even$5$ to$9$ be very 
205:191,09['  ]| small, admired the situation, the walk$0$ to$4$ Highbury, 
205:191,10['  ]| Highbury itself, Hartfield still$5$ more, and professed himself 
205:191,11['  ]| to$9$ have always felt the sort of interest$0$ in$4$ the country 
205:191,12['  ]| which$6#1$ none but one's \own$2$\ country gives, and the greatest 
205:191,13['  ]| curiosity to$9$ visit$1$ it. 
205:191,13@a   | That$3$ he should never have been 
205:191,14@a   | able to$9$ indulge so$5#1$ amiable a feeling before$5$, 
205:191,14['  ]| passed suspiciously 
205:191,15['  ]| through$4$ $EM#A$Emma's brain; 
205:191,15@a   | but still$5$ if it were a 
205:191,16@a   | falsehood, it was a pleasant one, and pleasantly handled. 
205:191,17@a   | His manner had no$2$ air of study$0$ or exaggeration. He did 
205:191,18@a   | really look$1$ and speak as if in$4$ a state$0$ of no$2$ common$2$ enjoyment. 
205:191,19@a   | 
205:191,20@a   | Their subjects in$4$ general$0$ were such as belong to$4$ an 
205:191,21@a   | opening acquaintance. 
205:191,21['  ]| On$4$ his side$0$ were the inquiries, 
205:191,22['  ]| ~~ 
205:191,22[E  ]| "Was she a horse-woman? ~~ Pleasant rides$0$? ~~ Pleasant 
205:191,23[E  ]| walks$0$? ~~ Had they a large neighbourhood? ~~ Highbury, 
205:191,24[E  ]| perhaps, afforded society enough? ~~ There were several 
205:191,25[E  ]| very pretty$2$ houses in$4$ and about$4$ it. ~~ Balls ~~ had they 
205:191,26[E  ]| balls? ~~ Was it a musical society?" 
205:191,27@a   | But when satisfied on$4$ all these points, and their acquaintance 
205:191,28@a   | proportionably advanced, he contrived to$9$ find 
205:191,29@a   | an opportunity, while$3$ their two fathers were engaged 
205:191,30@a   | with each other, of introducing his mother-in-law, and 
205:191,31@a   | speaking of her with so$5#1$ much handsome praise$0$, so$5#1$ much 
205:191,32@a   | warm$2$ admiration, so$5#1$ much gratitude for$4$ the happiness 
205:191,33@a   | she secured to$4$ his father, and her very kind$2$ reception of 
205:191,34@a   | himself, as was an additional proof of his knowing how to$9$ 
205:191,35@a   | please ~~ and of his certainly thinking it worth*while to$9$ 
205:191,36@a   | try to$9$ please her. He did not advance$1$ a word of praise$0$ 
205:191,37@a   | beyond$4$ what she knew to$9$ be thoroughly deserved by$4$ 
205:191,38@a   | $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; but undoubtedly he could know very little 
205:192,01@a   | of the matter. He understood what would be welcome$2$; 
205:192,02@a   | he could be sure of little else. 
205:192,02[E  ]| "His father's marriage," 
205:192,03['  ]| he said, 
205:192,03[E  ]| "had been the wisest measure$0$, every friend must 
205:192,04[E  ]| rejoice in$4$ it; and the family from whom$6#1$ he had received 
205:192,05[E  ]| such a blessing must be ever considered as having conferred 
205:192,06[E  ]| the highest obligation on$4$ him." 
205:192,07@a   | He got as near$5$ as he could to$4$ thanking her for$4$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's 
205:192,08@a   | merits, without seeming quite to$9$ forget that$3$ in$4$ 
205:192,09@a   | the common$2$ course$0$ of things it was to$9$ be rather supposed 
205:192,10@a   | that$3$ $EM#O$Miss*Taylor had formed $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's character, 
205:192,11@a   | than $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's. And at last$0$, as if 
205:192,12@a   | resolved to$9$ qualify his opinion completely for$4$ travelling 
205:192,13@a   | round$5$ to$4$ its object$0$, he wound$1#1$ it all up$5$ with astonishment 
205:192,14@a   | at the youth and beauty of her person. 
205:192,15[E  ]| "Elegant, agreeable manners, I was prepared for$4$," 
205:192,16['  ]| said he, 
205:192,16[E  ]| "but I confess that$3$, considering every*thing, 
205:192,17[E  ]| I had not expected more than a very tolerably well-looking 
205:192,18[E  ]| woman of a certain age; I did not know that$3$ 
205:192,19[E  ]| I was to$9$ find a pretty$2$ young woman in$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston." 
205:192,20[A  ]| "You cannot see too$5#1$ much perfection in$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
205:192,21[A  ]| for$4$ my feelings," 
205:192,21['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma; 
205:192,21[A  ]| "were you to$9$ guess$1$ her 
205:192,22[A  ]| to$9$ be \eighteen\, I should listen with pleasure; but \she\ 
205:192,23[A  ]| would be ready to$9$ quarrel$1$ with you for$4$ using such words. 
205:192,24[A  ]| Don't let her imagine that$3$ you have spoken of her as 
205:192,25[A  ]| a pretty$2$ young woman." 
205:192,26[E  ]| "I hope$1$ I should know better," 
205:192,26['  ]| he replied; 
205:192,26[E  ]| "no$7$, 
205:192,27[E  ]| depend upon$4$ it, 
205:192,27['  ]| (with a gallant bow$0#1$,) 
205:192,27[E  ]| that$3$ in$4$ addressing 
205:192,28[E  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston I should understand whom$6#1$ I might praise$1$ 
205:192,29[E  ]| without any danger of being$1$ thought$1$ extravagant in$4$ my 
205:192,30[E  ]| terms." 
205:192,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma wondered whether the same suspicion of what 
205:192,32['  ]| might be expected from their knowing each other, which$6#1$ 
205:192,33['  ]| had taken strong possession of her mind$0$, had ever crossed 
205:192,34['  ]| his; and whether his compliments were to$9$ be considered 
205:192,35['  ]| as marks of acquiescence, or proofs of defiance. 
205:192,35@a   | She must 
205:192,36@a   | see more of him to$9$ understand his ways; at present$0#1$ she 
205:192,37@a   | only felt they were agreeable. 
205:192,38@a   | She had no$2$ doubt$0$ of what $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was often 
205:193,01@a   | thinking about$4$. His quick$2$ eye she detected again and 
205:193,02@a   | again glancing towards them with a happy expression; 
205:193,03@a   | and even$5$, when he might have determined not to$9$ look$1$, 
205:193,04@a   | she was confident that$3$ he was often listening. 
205:193,05@a   | Her own$2$ father's perfect$2$ exemption from any thought$0$ 
205:193,06@a   | of the kind$0$, the entire deficiency in$4$ him of all such sort 
205:193,07@a   | of penetration or suspicion, was a most comfortable circumstance. 
205:193,08@a   | Happily he was not farther from approving 
205:193,09@a   | matrimony than from foreseeing it. ~~ Though always 
205:193,10@a   | objecting to$4$ every marriage that$6#1$ was arranged, he never 
205:193,11@a   | suffered beforehand from the apprehension of any; it 
205:193,12@a   | seemed as if he could not think so$5#1$ ill of any two persons' 
205:193,13@a   | understanding as to$9$ suppose they meant to$9$ marry till 
205:193,14@a   | it were proved against them. She blessed the favouring 
205:193,15@a   | blindness. He could now, without the drawback of a 
205:193,16@a   | single unpleasant surmise$0$, without a glance$0$ forward$5$ at 
205:193,17@a   | any possible treachery in$4$ his guest, give way to$4$ all his 
205:193,18@a   | natural$2$ kind-hearted civility in$4$ solicitous inquiries after$4$ 
205:193,19@p   | $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill's accommodation on$4$ his journey, 
205:193,20@p   | through$4$ the sad evils of sleeping two nights on$4$ the road, 
205:193,21@p   | and express$1$ very genuine unmixed anxiety to$9$ know that$3$ 
205:193,22@p   | he had certainly escaped catching cold$0$ ~~ which$6#1$, however, 
205:193,23@p   | he could not allow him to$9$ feel quite assured of himself till 
205:193,24@p   | after$4$ another night. 
205:193,25['  ]| A reasonable visit$0$ paid, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston began to$9$ move$1$. ~~ 
205:193,26[N  ]| "He must be going. He had business at the Crown$0#1$ about$4$ 
205:193,27[N  ]| his hay, and a great many errands for$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston at 
205:193,28[N  ]| $EM#Q1$Ford's; but he need$1$ not hurry$1$ any*body else." 
205:193,28['  ]| His son, 
205:193,29['  ]| too$5#1$ well$5$ bred to$9$ hear the hint$0$, rose$1$ immediately also, 
205:193,30['  ]| saying, 
205:193,31[E  ]| "As you are going farther on$4$ business, sir, I will$1$ take 
205:193,32[E  ]| the opportunity of paying a visit$0$, which$6#1$ must be paid 
205:193,33[E  ]| some day or other, and therefore may$1$ as well$5$ be paid 
205:193,34[E  ]| now. I have the honour$0$ of being$1$ acquainted with a 
205:193,35[E  ]| neighbour of yours, 
205:193,35['  ]| (turning to$4$ $EM#A$Emma,) 
205:193,35[E  ]| a lady residing in$4$ 
205:193,36[E  ]| or near$4$ Highbury; a family of the name$0$ of $EM#J1$Fairfax. 
205:193,37[E  ]| I shall have no$2$ difficulty, I suppose, in$4$ finding the house; 
205:193,38[E  ]| though $EM#J1$Fairfax, I believe, is not the proper name$0$ ~~ I 
205:194,01[E  ]| should rather say $EM#X3$Barnes, or $EM#C1$Bates. Do you know any 
205:194,02[E  ]| family of that$6#2$ name$0$?" 
205:194,03[N  ]| "To$9$ be sure we do," 
205:194,03['  ]| cried his father; 
205:194,03[N  ]| "$EM#C$Mrs%*Bates ~~ 
205:194,04[N  ]| we passed her house ~~ I saw $EM#D$Miss*Bates at the window. 
205:194,05[N  ]| True, true, you are acquainted with $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax; 
205:194,06[N  ]| I remember you knew her at Weymouth, and a fine girl 
205:194,07[N  ]| she is. Call$1$ upon$4$ her, by$4$ all means$0$." 
205:194,08[E  ]| "There is no$2$ necessity for$4$ my calling this morning," 
205:194,09['  ]| said the young man; 
205:194,09[E  ]| "another day would do as well$5$; but 
205:194,10[E  ]| there was that$6#2$ degree of acquaintance at Weymouth 
205:194,11[E  ]| which$6#1$" ~~ 
205:194,12[N  ]| "Oh! go to-day, go to-day. Do not defer it. What 
205:194,13[N  ]| is right$2#1$ to$9$ be done cannot be done too$5#1$ soon. And, besides, 
205:194,14[N  ]| I must give you a hint$0$, $EM#E$Frank; any want$0$ of attention to$4$ 
205:194,15[N  ]| her \here\ should be carefully avoided. You saw her with 
205:194,16[N  ]| the $EM#ZC2$Campbells when she was the equal$0$ of every*body she 
205:194,17[N  ]| mixed with, but here she is with a poor old grandmother, 
205:194,18[N  ]| who$6#1$ has barely enough to$9$ live on$4$. If you do not call$1$ early 
205:194,19[N  ]| it will$1$ be a slight$0$." 
205:194,20@a   | The son looked convinced. 
205:194,21[A  ]| "I have heard her speak of the acquaintance," 
205:194,21['  ]| said 
205:194,22['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, 
205:194,22[A  ]| "she is a very elegant young woman." 
205:194,23@a   | He agreed to$4$ it, but with so$5#1$ quiet$2$ a 
205:194,23[E  ]| "Yes," 
205:194,23@a   | as inclined 
205:194,24@a   | her almost to$9$ doubt$1$ his real concurrence; and yet there 
205:194,25@a   | must be a very distinct sort of elegance for$4$ the fashionable 
205:194,26@a   | world, if $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax could be thought$1$ only ordinarily 
205:194,27@a   | gifted with it. 
205:194,28[A  ]| "If you were never particularly struck by$4$ her manners 
205:194,29[A  ]| before$5$," 
205:194,29['  ]| said she, 
205:194,29[A  ]| "I think you will$1$ to-day. You will$1$ 
205:194,30[A  ]| see her to$4$ advantage; see her and hear her ~~ no$7$, I am 
205:194,31[A  ]| afraid you will$1$ not hear her at all, for$3$ she has an aunt 
205:194,32[A  ]| who$6#1$ never holds her tongue." 
205:194,33[P  ]| "You are acquainted with $EM#J$Miss*Jane*Fairfax, sir, are 
205:194,34[P  ]| you?" 
205:194,34['  ]| said $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, always the last$0$ to$9$ make$1$ 
205:194,35['  ]| his way in$4$ conversation; 
205:194,35[P  ]| "then give me leave$0$ to$9$ assure 
205:194,36[P  ]| you that$3$ you will$1$ find her a very agreeable young lady. 
205:194,37[P  ]| She is staying here on$4$ a visit$0$ to$4$ her grandmamma and 
205:194,38[P  ]| aunt, very worthy people; I have known them all my 
205:195,01[P  ]| life. They will$1$ be extremely glad to$9$ see you, I am sure, 
205:195,02[P  ]| and one of my servants shall go with you to$9$ shew$1$ you the 
205:195,03[P  ]| way." 
205:195,04[E  ]| "My dear$2#1$ sir, upon$4$ no$2$ account$0$ in$4$ the world; my 
205:195,05[E  ]| father can direct$1$ me." 
205:195,06[P  ]| "But your father is not going so$5#1$ far; he is only going 
205:195,07[P  ]| to$4$ the Crown$0#1$, quite on$4$ the other side$0$ of the street, and 
205:195,08[P  ]| there are a great many houses; you might be very much 
205:195,09[P  ]| at a loss, and it is a very dirty walk$0$, unless you keep on$4$ 
205:195,10[P  ]| the foot-path; but my coachman can tell you where you 
205:195,11[P  ]| had best cross$1$ the street." 
205:195,12['  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill still$5$ declined it, looking as serious$2$ 
205:195,13['  ]| as he could, and his father gave his hearty support$0$ by$4$ 
205:195,14['  ]| calling out$5$, 
205:195,14[N  ]| "My good friend, this is quite unnecessary; 
205:195,15[N  ]| $EM#E$Frank knows a puddle of water when he sees it, and as 
205:195,16[N  ]| to$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's, he may$1$ get there from the Crown$0#1$ in$4$ 
205:195,17[N  ]| a hop, step$0$ and jump." 
205:195,18['  ]| They were permitted to$9$ go alone; and with a cordial$2$ 
205:195,19['  ]| nod$0$ from one, and a graceful bow$0#1$ from the other, the two 
205:195,20['  ]| gentlemen took leave$0$. $EM#A$Emma remained very well$5$ pleased 
205:195,21['  ]| with this beginning of the acquaintance, and could now 
205:195,22['  ]| engage to$9$ think of them all at Randalls any hour of the 
205:195,23['  ]| day, with full confidence in$4$ their comfort$0$. 
206:196,01['  ]| The next morning brought $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill again. 
206:196,02['  ]| He came with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, to$4$ whom$6#1$ and to$4$ Highbury he 
206:196,03['  ]| seemed to$9$ take very cordially. He had been sitting with 
206:196,04['  ]| her, it appeared, most companionably at home, till her 
206:196,05['  ]| usual hour of exercise$0$; and on$4$ being$1$ desired to$9$ chuse 
206:196,06['  ]| their walk$0$, immediately fixed on$4$ Highbury. ~~ 
206:196,06[E  ]| "He did 
206:196,07[E  ]| not doubt$1$ there being$1$ very pleasant walks$0$ in$4$ every direction, 
206:196,08[E  ]| but if left to$4$ him, he should always chuse the same. 
206:196,09[E  ]| Highbury, that$6#2$ airy, cheerful, happy-looking Highbury, 
206:196,10[E  ]| would be his constant attraction." ~~ 
206:196,10['  ]| Highbury, with 
206:196,11['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, stood for$4$ Hartfield; and she trusted to$4$ its 
206:196,12['  ]| bearing the same construction with him. They walked 
206:196,13['  ]| thither directly. 
206:196,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had hardly expected them: for$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, who$6#1$ 
206:196,15['  ]| had called in$5$ for$4$ half a minute$0$, in$4$ order to$9$ hear that$3$ his 
206:196,16['  ]| son was very handsome, knew nothing of their plans; 
206:196,17['  ]| and it was an agreeable surprize$0$ to$4$ her, therefore, to$9$ 
206:196,18['  ]| perceive them walking up$5$ to$4$ the house together, arm$0$ in$4$ 
206:196,19['  ]| arm$0$. She was wanting to$9$ see him again, and especially 
206:196,20['  ]| to$9$ see him in$4$ company with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, upon$4$ his behaviour 
206:196,21['  ]| to$4$ whom$6#1$ her opinion of him was to$9$ depend. 
206:196,21@a   | If 
206:196,22@a   | he were deficient there, nothing should make$1$ amends for$4$ 
206:196,23@a   | it. But on$4$ seeing them together, she became perfectly 
206:196,24@a   | satisfied. It was not merely in$4$ fine words or hyperbolical 
206:196,25@a   | compliment$0$ that$3$ he paid his duty; nothing could be more 
206:196,26@a   | proper or pleasing than his whole$2$ manner to$4$ her ~~ nothing 
206:196,27@a   | could more agreeably denote his wish$0$ of considering her 
206:196,28@a   | as a friend and securing her affection. 
206:196,28['  ]| And there was time 
206:196,29['  ]| enough for$4$ $EM#A$Emma to$9$ form$1$ a reasonable judgment, as 
206:196,30['  ]| their visit$0$ included all the rest$0#1$ of the morning. They 
206:196,31['  ]| were all three walking about$5$ together for$4$ an hour or two 
206:196,32['  ]| ~~ first round$4$ the shrubberies of Hartfield, and afterwards 
206:196,33['  ]| in$4$ Highbury. He was delighted with every*thing; 
206:197,01['  ]| admired Hartfield sufficiently for$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's ear; 
206:197,02['  ]| and when their going farther was resolved on$5$, confessed 
206:197,03['  ]| his wish$0$ to$9$ be made acquainted with the whole$2$ village, 
206:197,04['  ]| and found matter of commendation and interest$0$ much 
206:197,05['  ]| oftener than $EM#A$Emma could have supposed. 
206:197,06['  ]| Some of the objects$0$ of his curiosity spoke very amiable 
206:197,07['  ]| feelings. He begged to$9$ be shewn the house which$6#1$ his 
206:197,08['  ]| father had lived in$4$ so$5#1$ long, and which$6#1$ had been the home 
206:197,09['  ]| of his father's father; and on$4$ recollecting that$3$ an old 
206:197,10['  ]| woman who$6#1$ had nursed him was still$5$ living, walked in$4$ 
206:197,11['  ]| quest of her cottage from one end$0$ of the street to$4$ the 
206:197,12['  ]| other; and though in$4$ some points of pursuit or observation 
206:197,13['  ]| there was no$2$ positive merit$0$, they shewed, altogether, 
206:197,14['  ]| a good-will towards Highbury in$4$ general$0$, which$6#1$ must be 
206:197,15['  ]| very like$4$ a merit$0$ to$4$ those he was with. 
206:197,16['  ]| $EM#A$Emma watched and decided, that$3$ 
206:197,16@a   | with such feelings as 
206:197,17@a   | were now shewn, it could not be fairly supposed that$3$ he 
206:197,18@a   | had been ever voluntarily absenting himself; that$3$ he had 
206:197,19@a   | not been acting a part$0$, or making a parade$0$ of insincere 
206:197,20@a   | professions; and that$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley certainly had not 
206:197,21@a   | done him justice. 
206:197,22['  ]| Their first pause$0$ was at the Crown*Inn, an inconsiderable 
206:197,23['  ]| house, though the principal$2$ one of the sort, where a couple 
206:197,24['  ]| of pair$0$ of post-horses were kept, more for$4$ the convenience 
206:197,25['  ]| of the neighbourhood than from any run$0$ on$4$ the road; and 
206:197,26['  ]| his companions had not expected to$9$ be detained by$4$ any 
206:197,27['  ]| interest$0$ excited there; but in$4$ passing it they gave the 
206:197,28['  ]| history of the large room visibly added; it had been 
206:197,29['  ]| built many years ago for$4$ a ball-room, and while$3$ the neighbourhood 
206:197,30['  ]| had been in$4$ a particularly populous, dancing 
206:197,31['  ]| state$0$, had been occasionally used as such; ~~ but such 
206:197,32['  ]| brilliant days had long passed away, and now the highest 
206:197,33['  ]| purpose for$4$ which$6#1$ it was ever wanted was to$9$ accommodate 
206:197,34['  ]| a whist*club established among the gentlemen and half-gentlemen 
206:197,35['  ]| of the place$0$. He was immediately interested. 
206:197,36['  ]| Its character as a ball-room caught him; and instead of 
206:197,37['  ]| passing on$5$, he stopt for$4$ several minutes at the two superior 
206:197,38['  ]| sashed windows which$6#1$ were open$2$, to$9$ look$1$ in$5$ and contemplate 
206:198,01['  ]| its capabilities, and lament that$3$ its original purpose 
206:198,02['  ]| should have ceased. He saw no$2$ fault in$4$ the room, he 
206:198,03['  ]| would acknowledge none which$6#1$ they suggested. 
206:198,03@e   | No$7$, it 
206:198,04@e   | was long enough, broad enough, handsome enough. It 
206:198,05@e   | would hold$1$ the very number for$4$ comfort$0$. They ought to$9$ 
206:198,06@e   | have balls there at least every fortnight through$4$ the 
206:198,07@e   | winter. Why had not $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse revived the former 
206:198,08@e   | good old days of the room? ~~ She who$6#1$ could do any*thing 
206:198,09@e   | in$4$ Highbury! 
206:198,09['  ]| The want$0$ of proper families in$4$ the place$0$, 
206:198,10['  ]| and the conviction that$3$ none beyond$4$ the place$0$ and its 
206:198,11['  ]| immediate environs could be tempted to$9$ attend, were 
206:198,12['  ]| mentioned; but he was not satisfied. He could not be 
206:198,13['  ]| persuaded that$3$ so$5#1$ many good-looking houses as he saw 
206:198,14['  ]| around$4$ him, could not furnish numbers enough for$4$ such 
206:198,15['  ]| a meeting; and even$5$ when particulars were given and 
206:198,16['  ]| families described, he was still$5$ unwilling to$9$ admit that$3$ the 
206:198,17['  ]| inconvenience of such a mixture would be any*thing, or 
206:198,18['  ]| that$3$ there would be the smallest difficulty in$4$ every*body's 
206:198,19['  ]| returning into their proper place$0$ the next morning. He 
206:198,20['  ]| argued like$4$ a young man very much bent on$4$ dancing; and 
206:198,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was rather surprized to$9$ see the constitution of the 
206:198,22['  ]| $EM#N1$Weston prevail so$5#1$ decidedly against the habits of the 
206:198,23['  ]| $EM#W$Churchills. 
206:198,23@a   | He seemed to$9$ have all the life and spirit, 
206:198,24@a   | cheerful feelings, and social inclinations of his father, and 
206:198,25@a   | nothing of the pride or reserve$0$ of Enscombe. Of pride, 
206:198,26@a   | indeed, there was, perhaps, scarcely enough; his indifference 
206:198,27@a   | to$4$ a confusion of rank$0$, bordered too$5#1$ much on$4$ 
206:198,28@a   | inelegance of mind$0$. He could be no$2$ judge$0$, however, of 
206:198,29@a   | the evil he was holding cheap. It was but an effusion of 
206:198,30@a   | lively spirits. 
206:198,31['  ]| At last$0$ he was persuaded to$9$ move$1$ on$5$ from the front$0$ of 
206:198,32['  ]| the Crown$0#1$; and being$1$ now almost facing the house where 
206:198,33['  ]| the $EM#C1$Bateses lodged, $EM#A$Emma recollected his intended visit$0$ 
206:198,34['  ]| the day before$5$, and asked him if he had paid it. 
206:198,35[E  ]| "Yes, oh! yes ~~ 
206:198,35['  ]| he replied; 
206:198,35[E  ]| I was just$5$ going to$9$ 
206:198,36[E  ]| mention$1$ it. A very successful visit$0$: ~~ I saw all the three 
206:198,37[E  ]| ladies; and felt very much obliged to$4$ you for$4$ your preparatory 
206:198,38[E  ]| hint$0$. If the talking aunt had taken me quite 
206:199,01[E  ]| by$4$ surprize$0$, it must have been the death of me. As it 
206:199,02[E  ]| was, I was only betrayed into paying a most unreasonable 
206:199,03[E  ]| visit$0$. Ten minutes would have been all that$6#1$ was necessary, 
206:199,04[E  ]| perhaps all that$6#1$ was proper; and I had told my father I 
206:199,05[E  ]| should certainly be at home before$4$ him ~~ but there was 
206:199,06[E  ]| no$2$ getting away, no$2$ pause$0$; and, to$4$ my utter$2$ astonishment, 
206:199,07[E  ]| I found, when he (finding me no*where else) joined me 
206:199,08[E  ]| there at last$0$, that$3$ I had been actually sitting with them 
206:199,09[E  ]| very nearly three quarters of an hour. The good lady had 
206:199,10[E  ]| not given me the possibility of escape$0$ before$5$." 
206:199,11[A  ]| "And how did you think $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax looking?" 
206:199,12[E  ]| "Ill, very ill ~~ that$6#2$ is, if a young lady can ever be 
206:199,13[E  ]| allowed to$9$ look$1$ ill. But the expression is hardly admissible, 
206:199,14[E  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, is it? Ladies can never look$1$ ill. And, 
206:199,15[E  ]| seriously, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax is naturally so$5#1$ pale, as almost 
206:199,16[E  ]| always to$9$ give the appearance of ill*health. ~~ A most 
206:199,17[E  ]| deplorable want$0$ of complexion." 
206:199,18['  ]| $EM#A$Emma would not agree to$4$ this, and began a warm$2$ 
206:199,19['  ]| defence of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's complexion. 
206:199,19[A  ]| "It was certainly 
206:199,20[A  ]| never brilliant, but she would not allow it to$9$ have a sickly 
206:199,21[A  ]| hue in$4$ general$0$; and there was a softness and delicacy in$4$ 
206:199,22[A  ]| her skin which$6#1$ gave peculiar elegance to$4$ the character of 
206:199,23[A  ]| her face$0$." 
206:199,23['  ]| He listened with all due$2$ deference; acknowledged 
206:199,24['  ]| that$3$ 
206:199,24@e   | he had heard many people say the same ~~ but 
206:199,25@e   | yet he must confess, that$3$ to$4$ him nothing could make$1$ 
206:199,26@e   | amends for$4$ the want$0$ of the fine glow of health. Where 
206:199,27@e   | features were indifferent, a fine complexion gave beauty 
206:199,28@e   | to$4$ them all; and where they were good, the effect$0$ was ~~ 
206:199,29@e   | fortunately he need$1$ not attempt$1$ to$9$ describe what the 
206:199,30@e   | effect$0$ was. 
206:199,31[A  ]| "Well$7$," 
206:199,31['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
206:199,31[A  ]| "there is no$2$ disputing about$4$ 
206:199,32[A  ]| taste. ~~ At least you admire her except her complexion." 
206:199,33['  ]| He shook his head$0$ and laughed. ~~ 
206:199,33[E  ]| "I cannot separate$1$ 
206:199,34[E  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax and her complexion." 
206:199,35[A  ]| "Did you see her often at Weymouth? Were you 
206:199,36[A  ]| often in$4$ the same society?" 
206:199,37['  ]| At this moment they were approaching $EM#Q1$Ford's, and he 
206:199,38['  ]| hastily exclaimed, 
206:199,38[E  ]| "Ha! this must be the very shop 
206:200,01[E  ]| that$6#1$ every*body attends every day of their lives$0$, as my 
206:200,02[E  ]| father informs me. He comes to$4$ Highbury himself, he 
206:200,03[E  ]| says, six days out$5$ of the seven, and has always business 
206:200,04[E  ]| at $EM#Q1$Ford's. If it be not inconvenient to$4$ you, pray let us 
206:200,05[E  ]| go in$5$, that$3$ I may$1$ prove myself to$9$ belong to$4$ the place$0$, to$9$ be 
206:200,06[E  ]| a true citizen of Highbury. I must buy something at 
206:200,07[E  ]| $EM#Q1$Ford's. It will$1$ be taking out$5$ my freedom. ~~ I dare$1#2$ say 
206:200,08[E  ]| they sell gloves." 
206:200,09[A  ]| "Oh! yes, gloves and every*thing. I do admire your 
206:200,10[A  ]| patriotism. You will$1$ be adored in$4$ Highbury. You were 
206:200,11[A  ]| very popular before$3$ you came, because you were $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's 
206:200,12[A  ]| son ~~ but lay$1#1$ out$5$ half-a-guinea at $EM#Q1$Ford's, and 
206:200,13[A  ]| your popularity will$1$ stand$1$ upon$4$ your own$2$ virtues." 
206:200,14['  ]| They went in$5$; and while$3$ the sleek, well-tied parcels of 
206:200,15['  ]| "Men's*Beavers" and "York*Tan" were bringing down$5$ 
206:200,16['  ]| and displaying on$4$ the counter, he said ~~ 
206:200,16[E  ]| "But I beg your 
206:200,17[E  ]| pardon$0$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you were speaking to$4$ me, you 
206:200,18[E  ]| were saying something at the very moment of this burst$0$ 
206:200,19[E  ]| of my \amor*patria*e\. Do not let me lose it. I assure you 
206:200,20[E  ]| the utmost stretch of public$2$ fame would not make$1$ me 
206:200,21[E  ]| amends for$4$ the loss of any happiness in$4$ private$2$ life." 
206:200,22[A  ]| "I merely asked, whether you had known much of 
206:200,23[A  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax and her party at Weymouth." 
206:200,24[E  ]| "And now that$3$ I understand your question$0$, I must 
206:200,25[E  ]| pronounce it to$9$ be a very unfair one. It is always the 
206:200,26[E  ]| lady's right$0$ to$9$ decide on$4$ the degree of acquaintance. 
206:200,27[E  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax must already have given her account$0$. ~~ I 
206:200,28[E  ]| shall not commit myself by$4$ claiming more than she may$1$ 
206:200,29[E  ]| chuse to$9$ allow." 
206:200,30[A  ]| "Upon$4$ my word! you answer$1$ as discreetly as she could 
206:200,31[A  ]| do herself. But her account$0$ of every*thing leaves$1$ so$5#1$ much 
206:200,32[A  ]| to$9$ be guessed, she is so$5#1$ very reserved, so$5#1$ very unwilling to$9$ 
206:200,33[A  ]| give the least information about$4$ any*body, that$3$ I really 
206:200,34[A  ]| think you may$1$ say what you like$1$ of your acquaintance 
206:200,35[A  ]| with her." 
206:200,36[E  ]| "May$1$ I indeed? ~~ Then I will$1$ speak the truth, and 
206:200,37[E  ]| nothing suits me so$5#1$ well$5$. I met her frequently at Weymouth. 
206:200,38[E  ]| I had known the $EM#ZC2$Campbells a little in$4$ town; and 
206:201,01[E  ]| at Weymouth we were very much in$4$ the same set$0$. $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell 
206:201,02[E  ]| is a very agreeable man, and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell a 
206:201,03[E  ]| friendly, warm-hearted woman. I like$1$ them all." 
206:201,04[A  ]| "You know $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's situation in$4$ life, I conclude; 
206:201,05[A  ]| what she is destined to$9$ be." 
206:201,06[E  ]| "Yes ~~ 
206:201,06['  ]| (rather hesitatingly) 
206:201,06[E  ]| ~~ "I believe I do." 
206:201,07[O  ]| "You get upon$4$ delicate subjects, $EM#A$Emma," 
206:201,07['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
206:201,08['  ]| smiling, 
206:201,08[O  ]| "remember that$3$ I am here. ~~ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
206:201,09[O  ]| hardly knows what to$9$ say when you speak of 
206:201,10[O  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's situation in$4$ life. I will$1$ move$1$ a little 
206:201,11[O  ]| farther off." 
206:201,12[A  ]| "I certainly do forget to$9$ think of \her\," 
206:201,12['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
206:201,13[A  ]| "as having ever been any*thing but my friend and my 
206:201,14[A  ]| dearest friend." 
206:201,15@a   | He looked as if he fully understood and honoured such 
206:201,16@a   | a sentiment. 
206:201,17['  ]| When the gloves were bought and they had quitted the 
206:201,18['  ]| shop again, 
206:201,18[E  ]| "Did you ever hear the young lady we were 
206:201,19[E  ]| speaking of, play$1$?" 
206:201,19['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. 
206:201,20[A  ]| "Ever hear her!" 
206:201,20['  ]| repeated $EM#A$Emma. 
206:201,20[A  ]| "You forget how 
206:201,21[A  ]| much she belongs to$4$ Highbury. I have heard her every 
206:201,22[A  ]| year of our lives$0$ since we both began. She plays$1$ charmingly." 
206:201,24[E  ]| "You think so$5#2$, do you? ~~ I wanted the opinion of some*one 
206:201,25[E  ]| who$6#1$ could really judge$1$. She appeared to$4$ me to$9$ play$1$ 
206:201,26[E  ]| well$5$, that$6#2$ is, with considerable taste, but I know nothing 
206:201,27[E  ]| of the matter myself. ~~ I am excessively fond of music, but 
206:201,28[E  ]| without the smallest skill or right$0$ of judging of any*body's 
206:201,29[E  ]| performance. ~~ I have been used to$9$ hear her's admired; 
206:201,30[E  ]| and I remember one proof of her being$1$ thought$1$ to$9$ play$1$ 
206:201,31[E  ]| well$5$: ~~ a man, a very musical man, and in$4$ love$0$ with 
206:201,32[E  ]| another woman ~~ engaged to$4$ her ~~ on$4$ the point$0$ of marriage 
206:201,33[E  ]| ~~ would yet never ask that$6#2$ other woman to$9$ sit down$5$ to$4$ 
206:201,34[E  ]| the instrument, if the lady in$4$ question$0$ could sit down$5$ 
206:201,35[E  ]| instead ~~ never seemed to$9$ like$1$ to$9$ hear one if he could hear 
206:201,36[E  ]| the other. That$6#2$ I thought$1$, in$4$ a man of known musical 
206:201,37[E  ]| talent, was some proof." 
206:201,38[A  ]| "Proof, indeed!" 
206:201,38['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, highly amused. ~~ 
206:202,01[A  ]| "$EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon is very musical, is he? We shall know more 
206:202,02[A  ]| about$4$ them all, in$4$ half an hour, from you, than $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
206:202,03[A  ]| would have vouchsafed in$4$ half a year." 
206:202,04[E  ]| "Yes, $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon and $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell were the persons; 
206:202,05[E  ]| and I thought$1$ it a very strong proof." 
206:202,06[A  ]| "Certainly ~~ very strong it was; to$9$ own$1$ the truth, a 
206:202,07[A  ]| great deal$0$ stronger than, if \I\ had been $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell, 
206:202,08[A  ]| would have been at all agreeable to$4$ me. I could not 
206:202,09[A  ]| excuse$1$ a man's having more music than love$0$ ~~ more ear 
206:202,10[A  ]| than eye ~~ a more acute sensibility to$4$ fine sounds$0$ than to$4$ 
206:202,11[A  ]| my feelings. How did $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell appear to$9$ like$1$ it?" 
206:202,12[E  ]| "It was her very particular friend, you know." 
206:202,13[A  ]| "Poor comfort$0$!" 
206:202,13['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, laughing. 
206:202,13[A  ]| "One would 
206:202,14[A  ]| rather have a stranger$0$ preferred than one's very particular 
206:202,15[A  ]| friend ~~ with a stranger$0$ it might not recur again ~~ but 
206:202,16[A  ]| the misery of having a very particular friend always at 
206:202,17[A  ]| hand$0$, to$9$ do every*thing better than one does oneself! ~~ 
206:202,18[A  ]| Poor $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon! Well$7$, I am glad she is gone to$9$ settle in$4$ 
206:202,19[A  ]| Ireland." 
206:202,20[E  ]| "You are right$2#1$. It was not very flattering to$4$ $EM#ZF1$Miss*Campbell; 
206:202,21[E  ]| but she really did not seem to$9$ feel it." 
206:202,22[A  ]| "So$5#1$ much the better ~~ or so$5#1$ much the worse: ~~ I do not 
206:202,23[A  ]| know which$6#1$. But, be it sweetness or be it stupidity in$4$ her 
206:202,24[A  ]| ~~ quickness of friendship, or dulness of feeling ~~ there was 
206:202,25[A  ]| one person, I think, who$6#1$ must have felt it: $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
206:202,26[A  ]| herself. \She\ must have felt the improper and dangerous 
206:202,27[A  ]| distinction." 
206:202,28[E  ]| "As to$4$ that$6#2$ ~~ I do not ~~" 
206:202,29[A  ]| "Oh! do not imagine that$3$ I expect an account$0$ of 
206:202,30[A  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's sensations from you, or from any*body else. 
206:202,31[A  ]| They are known to$4$ no$2$ human being$0$, I guess$1$, but herself. 
206:202,32[A  ]| But if she continued to$9$ play$1$ whenever she was asked by$4$ 
206:202,33[A  ]| $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, one may$1$ guess$1$ what one chuses." 
206:202,34[E  ]| "There appeared such a perfectly good understanding 
206:202,35[E  ]| among them all ~~" 
206:202,35['  ]| he began rather quickly, but checking 
206:202,36['  ]| himself, added, 
206:202,36[E  ]| "however, it is impossible for$4$ me to$9$ 
206:202,37[E  ]| say on$4$ what terms they really were ~~ how it might all be 
206:202,38[E  ]| behind the scenes. I can only say that$3$ there was smoothness 
206:203,01[E  ]| outwardly. But you, who$6#1$ have known $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
206:203,02[E  ]| from a child, must be a better judge$0$ of her character, and 
206:203,03[E  ]| of how she is likely to$9$ conduct$1$ herself in$4$ critical situations, 
206:203,04[E  ]| than I can be." 
206:203,05[A  ]| "I have known her from a child, undoubtedly; we 
206:203,06[A  ]| have been children and women together; and it is 
206:203,07[A  ]| natural$2$ to$9$ suppose that$3$ we should be intimate$2$. ~~ that$3$ we 
206:203,08[A  ]| should have taken to$4$ each other whenever she visited her 
206:203,09[A  ]| friends. But we never did. I hardly know how it has 
206:203,10[A  ]| happened; a little, perhaps, from that$6#2$ wickedness on$4$ my 
206:203,11[A  ]| side$0$ which$6#1$ was prone to$9$ take disgust$0$ towards a girl so$5#1$ 
206:203,12[A  ]| idolized and so$5#1$ cried up$5$ as she always was, by$4$ her aunt and 
206:203,13[A  ]| grandmother, and all their set$0$. And then, her reserve$0$ ~~ 
206:203,14[A  ]| I never could attach myself to$4$ any*one so$5#1$ completely 
206:203,15[A  ]| reserved." 
206:203,16[E  ]| "It is a most repulsive quality, indeed," 
206:203,16['  ]| said he. 
206:203,17[E  ]| "Oftentimes very convenient, no$2$ doubt$0$, but never pleasing. 
206:203,18[E  ]| There is safety in$4$ reserve$0$, but no$2$ attraction. One cannot 
206:203,19[E  ]| love$1$ a reserved person." 
206:203,20[A  ]| "Not till the reserve$0$ ceases towards oneself; and then 
206:203,21[A  ]| the attraction may$1$ be the greater. But I must be more in$4$ 
206:203,22[A  ]| want$0$ of a friend, or an agreeable companion, than I have 
206:203,23[A  ]| yet been, to$9$ take the trouble$0$ of conquering any*body's 
206:203,24[A  ]| reserve$0$ to$9$ procure one. Intimacy between $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
206:203,25[A  ]| and me is quite out$5$ of the question$0$. I have no$2$ reason$0$ to$9$ 
206:203,26[A  ]| think ill of her ~~ not the least ~~ except that$3$ such extreme$2$ 
206:203,27[A  ]| and perpetual cautiousness of word and manner, such a 
206:203,28[A  ]| dread$0$ of giving a distinct idea about$4$ any*body, is apt to$9$ 
206:203,29[A  ]| suggest suspicions of there being$1$ something to$9$ conceal." 
206:203,30@a   | He perfectly agreed with her: and after$4$ walking together
206:203,31@a   | so$5#1$ long, and thinking so$5#1$ much alike, 
206:203,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt 
206:203,32['  ]| herself so$5#1$ well$5$ acquainted with him, that$3$ 
206:203,32@a   | she could hardly 
206:203,33@a   | believe it to$9$ be only their second$2$ meeting. He was not 
206:203,34@a   | exactly what she had expected; less of the man of the 
206:203,35@a   | world in$4$ some of his notions, less of the spoiled child of 
206:203,36@a   | fortune, therefore better than she had expected. His 
206:203,37@a   | ideas seemed more moderate ~~ his feelings warmer. 
206:203,37['  ]| She 
206:203,38['  ]| was particularly struck by$4$ his manner of considering 
206:204,01['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's house, which$6#1$, as well$5$ as the church, he would 
206:204,02['  ]| go and look$1$ at, and would not join them in$4$ finding much 
206:204,03['  ]| fault with. 
206:204,03@e   | No$7$, he could not believe it a bad house; not 
206:204,04@e   | such a house as a man was to$9$ be pitied for$4$ having. If it 
206:204,05@e   | were to$9$ be shared with the woman he loved, he could not 
206:204,06@e   | think any man to$9$ be pitied for$4$ having that$6#2$ house. There 
206:204,07@e   | must be ample room in$4$ it for$4$ every real comfort$0$. The man 
206:204,08@e   | must be a blockhead who$6#1$ wanted more. 
206:204,09['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston laughed, and said 
206:204,09@o   | he did not know what he 
206:204,10@o   | was talking about$4$. Used only to$4$ a large house himself 
206:204,11@o   | and without ever thinking how many advantages and 
206:204,12@o   | accommodations were attached to$4$ its size, he could be 
206:204,13@o   | no$2$ judge$0$ of the privations inevitably belonging to$4$ a small 
206:204,14@o   | one. 
206:204,14['  ]| But $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ her own$2$ mind$0$, determined that$3$ 
206:204,14@a   | he 
206:204,15@a   | \did\ know what he was talking about$4$, and that$3$ he shewed 
206:204,16@a   | a very amiable inclination to$9$ settle early in$4$ life, and to$9$ 
206:204,17@a   | marry, from worthy motives. He might not be aware of 
206:204,18@a   | the inroads on$4$ domestic$2$ peace to$9$ be occasioned by$4$ no$2$ 
206:204,19@a   | housekeeper's room, or a bad butler's pantry, but no$2$ 
206:204,20@a   | doubt$0$ he did perfectly feel that$3$ Enscombe could not make$1$ 
206:204,21@a   | him happy, and that$3$ whenever he were attached, he would 
206:204,22@a   | willingly give up$5$ much of wealth to$9$ be allowed an early 
206:204,23@a   | establishment. 
207:205,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's very good opinion of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill was a 
207:205,02['  ]| little shaken the following day, by$4$ hearing that$3$ he was 
207:205,03['  ]| gone off to$4$ London, merely to$9$ have his hair cut$1$. A sudden$2$ 
207:205,04['  ]| freak seemed to$9$ have seized him at breakfast$0$, and he had 
207:205,05['  ]| sent for$4$ a chaise and set$1$ off, intending to$9$ return$1$ to$4$ dinner, 
207:205,06['  ]| but with no$2$ more important view$0$ that$6#1$ appeared than 
207:205,07['  ]| having his hair cut$1$. 
207:205,07@a   | There was certainly no$2$ harm$0$ in$4$ his 
207:205,08@a   | travelling sixteen miles twice over on$4$ such an errand; 
207:205,09@a   | but there was an air of foppery and nonsense in$4$ it which$6#1$ 
207:205,10@a   | she could not approve. It did not accord with the rationality 
207:205,11@a   | of plan, the moderation in$4$ expense, or even$5$ the unselfish 
207:205,12@a   | warmth of heart which$6#1$ she had believed herself to$9$ 
207:205,13@a   | discern in$4$ him yesterday. Vanity, extravagance, love$0$ 
207:205,14@a   | of change$0$, restlessness of temper, which$6#1$ must be doing 
207:205,15@a   | something, good or bad; heedlessness as to$4$ the pleasure 
207:205,16@a   | of his father and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, indifference as to$4$ how his 
207:205,17@a   | conduct$0$ might appear in$4$ general$0$; he became liable to$4$ all 
207:205,18@a   | these charges. His father only called him a coxcomb, and 
207:205,19@a   | thought$1$ it a very good story; but that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston did 
207:205,20@a   | not like$1$ it, was clear$2$ enough, by$4$ her passing it over as 
207:205,21@a   | quickly as possible, and making no$2$ other comment than 
207:205,22@a   | that$3$ 
207:205,22[O  ]| "all young people would have their little whims." 
207:205,23['  ]| With the exception of this little blot, $EM#A$Emma found that$3$ 
207:205,24['  ]| his visit$0$ hitherto had given her friend only good ideas of 
207:205,25['  ]| him. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was very ready to$9$ say 
207:205,25@o   | how attentive 
207:205,26@o   | and pleasant a companion he made himself ~~ how much 
207:205,27@o   | she saw to$9$ like$1$ in$4$ his disposition altogether. He appeared 
207:205,28@o   | to$9$ have a very open$2$ temper ~~ certainly a very cheerful and 
207:205,29@o   | lively one; she could observe nothing wrong in$4$ his 
207:205,30@o   | notions, a great deal$0$ decidedly right$2#1$; he spoke of his 
207:205,31@o   | uncle with warm$2$ regard$0$, was fond of talking of him ~~ said 
207:205,32@o   | he would be the best man in$4$ the world if he were left to$4$ 
207:206,01@o   | himself; and though there was no$2$ being$1$ attached to$4$ the 
207:206,02@o   | aunt, he acknowledged her kindness with gratitude, and 
207:206,03@o   | seemed to$9$ mean$1$ always to$9$ speak of her with respect$0$. 
207:206,03@a   | This 
207:206,04@a   | was all very promising; and, but for$4$ such an unfortunate 
207:206,05@a   | fancy$0$ for$4$ having his hair cut$1$, there was nothing to$9$ denote 
207:206,06@a   | him unworthy of the distinguished honour$0$ which$6#1$ her 
207:206,07@a   | imagination had given him; the honour$0$, if not of being$1$ 
207:206,08@a   | really in$4$ love$0$ with her, of being$1$ at least very near$4$ it, and 
207:206,09@a   | saved only by$4$ her own$2$ indifference ~~ 
207:206,09['  ]| (for$3$ still$5$ her resolution 
207:206,10['  ]| held of never marrying) ~~ 
207:206,10@a   | the honour$0$, in$4$ short, of 
207:206,11@a   | being$1$ marked out$5$ for$4$ her by$4$ all their joint acquaintance. 
207:206,12@a   | $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, on$4$ his side$0$, added a virtue to$4$ the account$0$ 
207:206,13@a   | which$6#1$ must have some weight. He gave her to$9$ understand 
207:206,14@a   | that$3$ 
207:206,14@n   | $EM#E$Frank admired her extremely ~~ thought$1$ her very 
207:206,15@n   | beautiful and very charming; 
207:206,15@a   | and with so$5#1$ much to$9$ be 
207:206,16@a   | said for$4$ him altogether, she found she must not judge$1$ him 
207:206,17@a   | harshly. As $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston observed, 
207:206,17[O  ]| "all young people 
207:206,18[O  ]| would have their little whims." 
207:206,19['  ]| There was one person among his new acquaintance in$4$ 
207:206,20['  ]| Surry, not so$5#1$ leniently disposed. In$4$ general$0$ he was judged, 
207:206,21['  ]| throughout the parishes of Donwell and Highbury, with 
207:206,22['  ]| great candour; liberal allowances were made for$4$ the little 
207:206,23['  ]| excesses of such a handsome young man ~~ one who$6#1$ smiled 
207:206,24['  ]| so$5#1$ often and bowed so$5#1$ well$5$; but there was one spirit 
207:206,25['  ]| among them not to$9$ be softened, from its power of censure$0$, 
207:206,26['  ]| by$4$ bows or smiles ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. The circumstance was 
207:206,27['  ]| told him at Hartfield; for$4$ the moment, he was silent; but 
207:206,28['  ]| $EM#A$Emma heard him almost immediately afterwards say to$4$ 
207:206,29['  ]| himself, over a newspaper he held in$4$ his hand$0$, 
207:206,29[B  ]| "Hum! 
207:206,30[B  ]| just$5$ the trifling, silly fellow I took him for$4$." 
207:206,30['  ]| She had 
207:206,31['  ]| half a mind$0$ to$9$ resent; but an instant's observation convinced 
207:206,32['  ]| her that$3$ 
207:206,32@a   | it was really said only to$9$ relieve his own$2$ 
207:206,33@a   | feelings, and not meant to$9$ provoke; 
207:206,33['  ]| and therefore she 
207:206,34['  ]| let it pass$1$. 
207:206,35['  ]| Although in$4$ one instance$0$ the bearers of not good tidings, 
207:206,36['  ]| $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's visit$0$ this morning was in$4$ another 
207:206,37['  ]| respect$0$ particularly opportune. Something occurred while$3$ 
207:206,38['  ]| they were at Hartfield, to$9$ make$1$ $EM#A$Emma want$1$ their advice; 
207:207,01['  ]| and, which$6#1$ was still$5$ more lucky, she wanted exactly the 
207:207,02['  ]| advice they gave. 
207:207,03['  ]| This was the occurrence: ~~ The $EM#F1$Coles had been settled 
207:207,04['  ]| some years in$4$ Highbury, and were very good sort of people 
207:207,05['  ]| ~~ friendly, liberal, and unpretending; but, on$4$ the other 
207:207,06['  ]| hand$0$, they were of low origin, in$4$ trade, and only moderately 
207:207,07['  ]| genteel. On$4$ their first coming into the country, 
207:207,08['  ]| they had lived in$4$ proportion to$4$ their income, quietly, 
207:207,09['  ]| keeping little company, and that$6#2$ little unexpensively; 
207:207,10['  ]| but the last$2$ year or two had brought them a considerable 
207:207,11['  ]| increase$0$ of means$0$ ~~ the house in$4$ town had yielded greater 
207:207,12['  ]| profits, and fortune in$4$ general$0$ had smiled on$4$ them. With 
207:207,13['  ]| their wealth, their views increased; their want$0$ of a larger 
207:207,14['  ]| house, their inclination for$4$ more company. They added 
207:207,15['  ]| to$4$ their house, to$4$ their number of servants, to$4$ their expenses 
207:207,16['  ]| of every sort; and by$4$ this time were, in$4$ fortune 
207:207,17['  ]| and style of living, second$2$ only to$4$ the family at Hartfield. 
207:207,18['  ]| Their love$0$ of society, and their new dining-room, prepared 
207:207,19['  ]| every*body for$4$ their keeping dinner-company; and a few 
207:207,20['  ]| parties, chiefly among the single men, had already taken 
207:207,21['  ]| place$0$. The regular and best families $EM#A$Emma could hardly 
207:207,22['  ]| suppose they would presume to$9$ invite ~~ neither Donwell, 
207:207,23['  ]| nor Hartfield, nor Randalls. 
207:207,23@a   | Nothing should tempt \her\ 
207:207,24@a   | to$9$ go, if they did; and she regretted that$3$ her father's 
207:207,25@a   | known habits would be giving her refusal less meaning 
207:207,26@a   | than she could wish$1$. The $EM#F1$Coles were very respectable in$4$ 
207:207,27@a   | their way, but they ought to$9$ be taught that$3$ it was not 
207:207,28@a   | for$4$ them to$9$ arrange the terms on$4$ which$6#1$ the superior 
207:207,29@a   | families would visit$1$ them. This lesson, she very much 
207:207,30@a   | feared, they would receive only from herself; she had 
207:207,31@a   | little hope$0$ of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, none of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
207:207,32['  ]| But she had made up$5$ her mind$0$ how to$9$ meet$1$ this presumption 
207:207,33['  ]| so$5#1$ many weeks before$3$ it appeared, that$3$ when 
207:207,34['  ]| the insult came at last$0$, it found her very differently 
207:207,35['  ]| affected. Donwell and Randalls had received their invitation, 
207:207,36['  ]| and none had come for$4$ her father and herself; 
207:207,37['  ]| and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's accounting for$4$ it with 
207:207,37[O  ]| "I suppose 
207:207,38[O  ]| they will$1$ not take the liberty with you; they know you 
207:208,01[O  ]| do not dine out$5$," 
207:208,01['  ]| was not quite sufficient. She felt that$3$ 
207:208,02@a   | she should like$1$ to$9$ have had the power of refusal; and 
207:208,03@a   | afterwards, as the idea of the party to$9$ be assembled there, 
207:208,04@a   | consisting precisely of those whose$6#1$ society was dearest to$4$ 
207:208,05@a   | her, occurred again and again, she did not know that$3$ she 
207:208,06@a   | might not have been tempted to$9$ accept. $EM#M$Harriet was 
207:208,07@a   | to$9$ be there in$4$ the evening, and the $EM#C1$Bateses. They had 
207:208,08@a   | been speaking of it as they walked about$4$ Highbury the 
207:208,09@a   | day before$5$, and $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had most earnestly 
207:208,10@a   | lamented her absence. 
207:208,10@e   | Might not the evening end$1$ in$4$ a 
207:208,11@e   | dance$0$? 
207:208,11@a   | had been a question$0$ of his. 
207:208,11['  ]| The bare possibility 
207:208,12['  ]| of it acted as a further irritation on$4$ her spirits; and 
207:208,12@a   | her 
207:208,13@a   | being$1$ left in$4$ solitary grandeur, even$5$ supposing the omission 
207:208,14@a   | to$9$ be intended as a compliment$0$, was but poor comfort$0$. 
207:208,15['  ]| It was the arrival of this very invitation while$3$ the 
207:208,16['  ]| $EM#N1$Westons were at Hartfield, which$6#1$ made their presence 
207:208,17['  ]| so$5#1$ acceptable; for$3$ though her first remark$0$, on$4$ reading it, 
207:208,18['  ]| was that$3$ 
207:208,18[A  ]| "of course$8$ it must be declined," 
207:208,18['  ]| she so$5#1$ very 
207:208,19['  ]| soon proceeded to$9$ ask them what they advised her to$9$ do, 
207:208,20['  ]| that$3$ their advice for$4$ her going was most prompt$2$ and 
207:208,21['  ]| successful. 
207:208,22['  ]| She owned that$3$, 
207:208,22@a   | considering every*thing, she was not 
207:208,23@a   | absolutely without inclination for$4$ the party. The $EM#F1$Coles 
207:208,24@a   | expressed themselves so$5#1$ properly ~~ there was so$5#1$ much real 
207:208,25@a   | attention in$4$ the manner of it ~~ so$5#1$ much consideration for$4$ 
207:208,26@a   | her father. 
207:208,26[Y  ]| "They would have solicited the honour$0$ 
207:208,27[Y  ]| earlier, but had been waiting the arrival of a folding-screen 
207:208,28[Y  ]| from London, which$6#1$ they hoped might keep 
207:208,29[Y  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse from any draught of air, and therefore 
207:208,30[Y  ]| induce him the more readily to$9$ give them the honour$0$ of 
207:208,31[Y  ]| his company." 
207:208,31['  ]| Upon$4$ the whole$0$, she was very persuadable; 
207:208,32['  ]| and it being$1$ briefly settled among themselves how 
207:208,33['  ]| it might be done without neglecting his comfort$0$ ~~ how 
207:208,34['  ]| certainly $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, if not $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, might be depended 
207:208,35['  ]| on$5$ for$4$ bearing him company ~~ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
207:208,36['  ]| was to$9$ be talked into an acquiescence of his daughter's 
207:208,37['  ]| going out$5$ to$4$ dinner on$4$ a day now near$5$ at hand$0$, and 
207:208,38['  ]| spending the whole$2$ evening away from him. As for$4$ \his\ 
207:209,01['  ]| going, $EM#A$Emma did not wish$1$ him to$9$ think it possible; the 
207:209,02['  ]| hours would be too$5#1$ late, and the party too$5#1$ numerous. 
207:209,03['  ]| He was soon pretty$5$ well$5$ resigned. 
207:209,04[P  ]| "I am not fond of dinner-visiting," 
207:209,04['  ]| said he ~~ 
207:209,04[P  ]| "I never 
207:209,05[P  ]| was. No$2$ more is $EM#A$Emma. Late hours do not agree with 
207:209,06[P  ]| us. I am sorry $EM#F$Mr% and $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole should have done it. 
207:209,07[P  ]| I think it would be much better if they would come in$4$ 
207:209,08[P  ]| one afternoon next summer, and take their tea with us 
207:209,09[P  ]| ~~ take us in$4$ their afternoon walk$0$; which$6#1$ they might do, 
207:209,10[P  ]| as our hours are so$5#1$ reasonable, and yet get home without 
207:209,11[P  ]| being$1$ out$5$ in$4$ the damp$0$ of the evening. The dews of 
207:209,12[P  ]| a summer evening are what I would not expose any*body 
207:209,13[P  ]| to$4$. However, as they are so$5#1$ very desirous to$9$ have dear$2#1$ 
207:209,14[P  ]| $EM#A$Emma dine with them, and as you will$1$ both be there, 
207:209,15[P  ]| and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley too$5#2$, to$9$ take care$0$ of her, I cannot wish$1$ 
207:209,16[P  ]| to$9$ prevent it, provided the weather be what it ought, 
207:209,17[P  ]| neither damp$2$, nor cold$2$, nor windy." 
207:209,17['  ]| Then turning to$4$ 
207:209,18['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, with a look$0$ of gentle reproach$0$ ~~ 
207:209,18[P  ]| "Ah! 
207:209,19[P  ]| $EM#O$Miss*Taylor, if you had not married, you would have staid 
207:209,20[P  ]| at home with me." 
207:209,21[N  ]| "Well$7$, sir," 
207:209,21['  ]| cried $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
207:209,21[N  ]| "as I took $EM#O$Miss*Taylor 
207:209,22[N  ]| away, it is incumbent on$4$ me to$9$ supply$1$ her place$0$, if I can; 
207:209,23[N  ]| and I will$1$ step$1$ to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard in$4$ a moment, if you 
207:209,24[N  ]| wish$1$ it." 
207:209,25['  ]| But the idea of any*thing to$9$ be done in$4$ a \moment\, was 
207:209,26['  ]| increasing, not lessening $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's agitation. 
207:209,27['  ]| The ladies knew better how to$9$ allay it. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
207:209,28['  ]| must be quiet$2$, and every*thing deliberately arranged. 
207:209,29['  ]| With this treatment, $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was soon composed 
207:209,30['  ]| enough for$4$ talking as usual. 
207:209,30[P  ]| "He should be happy 
207:209,31[P  ]| to$9$ see $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard. He had a great regard$0$ for$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard; 
207:209,32[P  ]| and $EM#A$Emma should write a line, and invite her. 
207:209,33[P  ]| $EM#ZI$James could take the note$0$. But first of all, there must 
207:209,34[P  ]| be an answer$0$ written to$4$ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole." 
207:209,35[P  ]| "You will$1$ make$1$ my excuses, my dear$2#1$, as civilly as 
207:209,36[P  ]| possible. You will$1$ say that$3$ I am quite an invalid, and 
207:209,37[P  ]| go no*where, and therefore must decline their obliging 
207:209,38[P  ]| invitation; beginning with my \compliments\, of course$8$. 
207:210,01[P  ]| But you will$1$ do every*thing right$2#1$. I need$1$ not tell you 
207:210,02[P  ]| what is to$9$ be done. We must remember to$9$ let $EM#ZI$James 
207:210,03[P  ]| know that$3$ the carriage will$1$ be wanted on$4$ Tuesday. 
207:210,04[P  ]| I shall have no$2$ fears for$4$ you with him. We have never 
207:210,05[P  ]| been there above$4$ once since the new approach$0$ was made; 
207:210,06[P  ]| but still$5$ I have no$2$ doubt$0$ that$3$ $EM#ZI$James will$1$ take you very 
207:210,07[P  ]| safely. And when you get there, you must tell him at 
207:210,08[P  ]| what time you would have him come for$4$ you again; and 
207:210,09[P  ]| you had better name$1$ an early hour. You will$1$ not like$1$ 
207:210,10[P  ]| staying late. You will$1$ get very tired when tea is over." 
207:210,11[A  ]| "But you would not wish$1$ me to$9$ come away before$3$ I am 
207:210,12[A  ]| tired, papa?" 
207:210,13[P  ]| "Oh! no$7$, my love$0$; but you will$1$ soon be tired. There 
207:210,14[P  ]| will$1$ be a great many people talking at once. You will$1$ 
207:210,15[P  ]| not like$1$ the noise." 
207:210,16[N  ]| "But, my dear$2#1$ sir," 
207:210,16['  ]| cried $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
207:210,16[N  ]| "if $EM#A$Emma 
207:210,17[N  ]| comes away early, it will$1$ be breaking up$5$ the party." 
207:210,18[P  ]| "And no$2$ great harm$0$ if it does," 
207:210,18['  ]| said $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse. 
207:210,19[P  ]| "The sooner every party breaks up$5$, the better." 
207:210,20[N  ]| "But you do not consider how it may$1$ appear to$4$ the 
207:210,21[N  ]| $EM#F1$Coles. $EM#A$Emma's going away directly after$4$ tea might be 
207:210,22[N  ]| giving offence. They are good-natured people, and think 
207:210,23[N  ]| little of their own$2$ claims; but still$5$ they must feel that$3$ 
207:210,24[N  ]| any*body's hurrying away is no$2$ great compliment$0$; and 
207:210,25[N  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's doing it would be more thought$1$ of 
207:210,26[N  ]| than any other person's in$4$ the room. You would not 
207:210,27[N  ]| wish$1$ to$9$ disappoint and mortify the $EM#F1$Coles, I am sure, sir; 
207:210,28[N  ]| friendly, good sort of people as ever lived, and who$6#1$ have 
207:210,29[N  ]| been your neighbours these \ten\ years." 
207:210,30[P  ]| "No$7$, upon$4$ no$2$ account$0$ in$4$ the world. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
207:210,31[P  ]| I am much obliged to$4$ you for$4$ reminding me. I should 
207:210,32[P  ]| be extremely sorry to$9$ be giving them any pain$0$. I know 
207:210,33[P  ]| what worthy people they are. $EM#W$Perry tells me that$3$ 
207:210,34[P  ]| $EM#F$Mr%*Cole never touches malt liquor. You would not think 
207:210,35[P  ]| it to$9$ look$1$ at him, but he is bilious ~~ $EM#F$Mr%*Cole is very bilious. 
207:210,36[P  ]| No$7$, I would not be the means$0$ of giving them any pain$0$. 
207:210,37[P  ]| My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, we must consider this. I am sure, rather 
207:210,38[P  ]| than run$1$ the risk$0$ of hurting $EM#F$Mr% and $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole, you would 
207:211,01[P  ]| stay$1$ a little longer than you might wish$1$. You will$1$ not 
207:211,02[P  ]| regard$1$ being$1$ tired. You will$1$ be perfectly safe, you know, 
207:211,03[P  ]| among your friends." 
207:211,04[A  ]| "Oh, yes, papa. I have no$2$ fears at all for$4$ myself; 
207:211,05[A  ]| and I should have no$2$ scruples of staying as late as $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
207:211,06[A  ]| but on$4$ your account$0$. I am only afraid of your 
207:211,07[A  ]| sitting up$5$ for$4$ me. I am not afraid of your not being$1$ 
207:211,08[A  ]| exceedingly comfortable with $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard. She loves 
207:211,09[A  ]| piquet, you know; but when she is gone home, I am 
207:211,10[A  ]| afraid you will$1$ be sitting up$5$ by$4$ yourself, instead of going 
207:211,11[A  ]| to$4$ bed at your usual time ~~ and the idea of that$6#2$ would 
207:211,12[A  ]| entirely destroy my comfort$0$. You must promise$1$ me not 
207:211,13[A  ]| to$9$ sit up$5$." 
207:211,14['  ]| He did, on$4$ the condition$0$ of some promises$0$ on$4$ her side$0$: 
207:211,15['  ]| such as that$3$, if she came home cold$2$, she would be sure to$9$ 
207:211,16['  ]| warm$1$ herself thoroughly; if hungry, that$3$ she would take 
207:211,17['  ]| something to$9$ eat; that$3$ her own$2$ maid should sit up$5$ for$4$ 
207:211,18['  ]| her; and that$3$ $EM#ZZN$Serle and the butler should see that$3$ every*thing 
207:211,19['  ]| were safe in$4$ the house, as usual. 
208:212,01['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill came back$5$ again; and if he kept 
208:212,02['  ]| his father's dinner waiting, it was not known at Hartfield; 
208:212,03['  ]| for$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was too$5#1$ anxious for$4$ his being$1$ 
208:212,04['  ]| a favourite$0$ with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, to$9$ betray any imperfection 
208:212,05['  ]| which$6#1$ could be concealed. 
208:212,06['  ]| He came back$5$, had had his hair cut$1$, and laughed at 
208:212,07['  ]| himself with a very good grace$0$, but without seeming 
208:212,08['  ]| really at all ashamed of what he had done. He had no$2$ 
208:212,09['  ]| reason$0$ to$9$ wish$1$ his hair longer, to$9$ conceal any confusion 
208:212,10['  ]| of face$0$; no$2$ reason$0$ to$9$ wish$1$ the money unspent, to$9$ improve 
208:212,11['  ]| his spirits. He was quite as undaunted and as lively as 
208:212,12['  ]| ever; and after$4$ seeing him, $EM#A$Emma thus moralized to$4$ 
208:212,13['  ]| herself: ~~ 
208:212,14@a   | "I do not know whether it ought to$9$ be so$5#2$, but certainly 
208:212,15@a   | silly things do cease to$9$ be silly if they are done by$4$ 
208:212,16@a   | sensible$2#2$ people in$4$ an impudent way. Wickedness is 
208:212,17@a   | always wickedness, but folly is not always folly, ~~ It 
208:212,18@a   | depends upon$4$ the character of those who$6#1$ handle it. 
208:212,19@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, he is \not\ a trifling, silly young man. If 
208:212,20@a   | he were, he would have done this differently. He would 
208:212,21@a   | either have gloried in$4$ the achievement, or been ashamed 
208:212,22@a   | of it. There would have been either the ostentation of 
208:212,23@a   | a coxcomb, or the evasions of a mind$0$ too$5#1$ weak to$9$ defend 
208:212,24@a   | its own$2$ vanities. ~~ No$7$, I am perfectly sure that$3$ he is not 
208:212,25@a   | trifling or silly." 
208:212,26@a   | With Tuesday came the agreeable prospect of seeing 
208:212,27@a   | him again, and for$4$ a longer time than hitherto; of 
208:212,28@a   | judging of his general$2$ manners, and by$4$ inference, of the 
208:212,29@a   | meaning of his manners towards herself; of guessing how 
208:212,30@a   | soon it might be necessary for$4$ her to$9$ throw$1$ coldness into 
208:212,31@a   | her air; and of fancying what the observations of all 
208:212,32@a   | those might be, who$6#1$ were now seeing them together for$4$ 
208:212,33@a   | the first time. 
208:213,01@a   | She meant to$9$ be very happy, in$4$ spite$8$ of the scene being$1$ 
208:213,02@a   | laid at $EM#F$Mr%*Cole's; and without being$1$ able to$9$ forget that$3$ 
208:213,03@a   | among the failings of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, even$5$ in$4$ the days of his 
208:213,04@a   | favour$0$, none had disturbed her more than his propensity 
208:213,05@a   | to$9$ dine with $EM#F$Mr%*Cole. 
208:213,06@a   | Her father's comfort$0$ was amply secured, $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates as 
208:213,07@a   | well$5$ as $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard being$1$ able to$9$ come; and her last$2$ 
208:213,08@a   | pleasing duty, before$3$ she left the house, was to$9$ pay$1$ her 
208:213,09@a   | respects to$4$ them as they sat together after$4$ dinner; and 
208:213,10@a   | while$3$ her father was fondly noticing the beauty of her 
208:213,11@a   | dress$0$, to$9$ make$1$ the two ladies all the amends in$4$ her power, 
208:213,12@a   | by$4$ helping them to$4$ large slices of cake and full glasses of 
208:213,13@a   | wine, for$4$ whatever unwilling self-denial his care$0$ of their 
208:213,14@a   | constitution might have obliged them to$9$ practise during 
208:213,15@a   | the meal. ~~ She had provided a plentiful dinner for$4$ them; 
208:213,16@a   | she wished she could know that$3$ they had been allowed 
208:213,17@a   | to$9$ eat it. 
208:213,18['  ]| She followed another carriage to$4$ $EM#F$Mr%*Cole's door; and 
208:213,19['  ]| was pleased to$9$ see that$3$ it was $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's; 
208:213,19['  ]| for$3$ 
208:213,20['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley keeping no$2$ horses, having little spare$2$ 
208:213,21['  ]| money and a great deal$0$ of health, activity, and independence, 
208:213,22['  ]| was 
208:213,22@a   | too$5#1$ apt, 
208:213,22['  ]| in$4$ $EM#A$Emma's opinion, 
208:213,22@a   | to$9$ get about$5$ as 
208:213,23@a   | he could, and not use$1$ his carriage so$5#1$ often as became the 
208:213,24@a   | owner of Donwell*Abbey. 
208:213,24['  ]| She had an opportunity now 
208:213,25['  ]| of speaking her approbation while$4$ warm$2$ from her heart, 
208:213,26['  ]| for$3$ he stopped to$9$ hand$1$ her out$5$. 
208:213,27[A  ]| "This is coming as you should do," 
208:213,27['  ]| said she, 
208:213,27[A  ]| "like$4$ 
208:213,28[A  ]| a gentleman. ~~ I am quite glad to$9$ see you." 
208:213,29['  ]| He thanked her, observing, 
208:213,29[B  ]| "How lucky that$3$ we should 
208:213,30[B  ]| arrive at the same moment! for$3$, if we had met first in$4$ 
208:213,31[B  ]| the drawing-room, I doubt$1$ whether you would have 
208:213,32[B  ]| discerned me to$9$ be more of a gentleman than usual. ~~ 
208:213,33[B  ]| You might not have distinguished how I came, by$4$ my 
208:213,34[B  ]| look$0$ or manner." 
208:213,35[A  ]| "Yes I should, I am sure I should. There is always 
208:213,36[A  ]| a look$0$ of consciousness or bustle$0$ when people come in$4$ 
208:213,37[A  ]| a way which$6#1$ they know to$9$ be beneath them. You think 
208:213,38[A  ]| you carry it off very well$5$, I dare$1#2$ say, but with you it 
208:214,01[A  ]| is a sort of bravado, an air of affected unconcern; I 
208:214,02[A  ]| always observe it whenever I meet$1$ you under those 
208:214,03[A  ]| circumstances. \Now\ you have nothing to$9$ try for$4$. You 
208:214,04[A  ]| are not afraid of being$1$ supposed ashamed. You are not 
208:214,05[A  ]| striving to$9$ look$1$ taller than any*body else. \Now\ I shall 
208:214,06[A  ]| really be very happy to$9$ walk$1$ into the same room with 
208:214,07[A  ]| you." 
208:214,08[B  ]| "Nonsensical girl!" 
208:214,08['  ]| was his reply$0$, but not at all in$4$ 
208:214,09['  ]| anger$0$. 
208:214,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had as much reason$0$ to$9$ be satisfied with the rest$0#1$ 
208:214,11['  ]| of the party as with $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. She was received 
208:214,12['  ]| with a cordial$2$ respect$0$ which$6#1$ could not but please, and 
208:214,13['  ]| given all the consequence she could wish$1$ for$4$. When the 
208:214,14['  ]| $EM#N1$Westons arrived, their kindest looks$0$ of love$0$, the strongest 
208:214,15['  ]| of admiration were for$4$ her, from both husband and wife; 
208:214,16['  ]| the son approached her with a cheerful eagerness which$6#1$ 
208:214,17['  ]| marked her as his peculiar object$0$, and at dinner she found 
208:214,18['  ]| him seated by$4$ her ~~ and, as she firmly believed, 
208:214,18@a   | not 
208:214,19@a   | without some dexterity on$4$ his side$0$. 
208:214,20['  ]| The party was rather large, as it included one other 
208:214,21['  ]| family, a proper unobjectionable country family, whom$6#1$ 
208:214,22['  ]| the $EM#F1$Coles had the advantage of naming among their 
208:214,23['  ]| acquaintance, and the male part$0$ of $EM#ZE$Mr%*Cox's family, the 
208:214,24['  ]| lawyer of Highbury. The less worthy females were to$9$ 
208:214,25['  ]| come in$4$ the evening, with $EM#D$Miss*Bates, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, and 
208:214,26['  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Smith; but already, at dinner, they were too$5#1$ 
208:214,27['  ]| numerous for$4$ any subject$0$ of conversation to$9$ be general$2$; 
208:214,28['  ]| and while$4$ politics and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton were talked over, $EM#A$Emma 
208:214,29['  ]| could fairly surrender$1$ all her attention to$4$ the pleasantness 
208:214,30['  ]| of her neighbour. The first remote sound$0$ to$4$ which$6#1$ she 
208:214,31['  ]| felt herself obliged to$9$ attend, was the name$0$ of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. 
208:214,32['  ]| $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole seemed to$9$ be relating something of 
208:214,33['  ]| her that$6#1$ was expected to$9$ be very interesting. She 
208:214,34['  ]| listened, and found it well$5$ worth listening to$4$. That$6#2$ very 
208:214,35['  ]| dear$2#1$ part$0$ of $EM#A$Emma, her fancy$0$, received an amusing supply$0$. 
208:214,36['  ]| $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole was telling that$3$ 
208:214,36@g   | she had been calling on$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates, 
208:214,37@g   | and as soon as she entered the room had been 
208:214,38@g   | struck by$4$ the sight of a pianoforte= ~~ a very elegant*looking 
208:215,01@g   | instrument ~~ not a grand, but a large-sized square 
208:215,02@g   | pianoforte=; 
208:215,02['  ]| and the substance of the story, the end$0$ of 
208:215,03['  ]| all the dialogue which$6#1$ ensued of surprize$0$, and inquiry, and 
208:215,04['  ]| congratulations on$4$ her side$0$, and explanations on$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates's, 
208:215,05['  ]| was, that$3$ 
208:215,05@g   | this pianoforte= had arrived from 
208:215,06@g   | $EM#Z1$Broadwood's the day before$5$, to$4$ the great astonishment 
208:215,07@g   | of both aunt and niece ~~ entirely unexpected; that$3$ at
208:215,08@g   | first, by$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates's account$0$, $EM#J$Jane herself was quite at 
208:215,09@g   | a loss, quite bewildered to$9$ think who$6#1$ could possibly have 
208:215,10@g   | ordered it ~~ but now, they were both perfectly satisfied 
208:215,11@g   | that$3$ it could be from only one quarter$0#2$; ~~ of course$8$ it 
208:215,12@g   | must be from $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell. 
208:215,13[G  ]| "One can suppose nothing else," 
208:215,13['  ]| added $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole, 
208:215,14[G  ]| "and I was only surprized that$3$ there could ever have 
208:215,15[G  ]| been a doubt$0$. But $EM#J$Jane, it seems, had a letter from them 
208:215,16[G  ]| very lately, and not a word was said about$4$ it. She knows 
208:215,17[G  ]| their ways best; but I should not consider their silence$0$ 
208:215,18[G  ]| as any reason$0$ for$4$ their not meaning to$9$ make$1$ the present$0#2$. 
208:215,19[G  ]| They might chuse to$9$ surprize$1$ her." 
208:215,20['  ]| $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole had many to$9$ agree with her; every*body 
208:215,21['  ]| who$6#1$ spoke on$4$ the subject$0$ was equally convinced that$3$ it 
208:215,22['  ]| must come from $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell, and equally rejoiced that$3$ 
208:215,23['  ]| such a present$0#2$ had been made; and there were enough 
208:215,24['  ]| ready to$9$ speak to$9$ allow $EM#A$Emma to$9$ think her own$2$ way, and 
208:215,25['  ]| still$5$ listen to$4$ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole. 
208:215,26[G  ]| "I declare, I do not know when I have heard any*thing 
208:215,27[G  ]| that$6#1$ has given me more satisfaction! ~~ It always has 
208:215,28[G  ]| quite hurt me that$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, who$6#1$ plays$1$ so$5#1$ delightfully, 
208:215,29[G  ]| should not have an instrument. It seemed quite 
208:215,30[G  ]| a shame$0$, especially considering how many houses there 
208:215,31[G  ]| are where fine instruments are absolutely thrown away. 
208:215,32[G  ]| This is like$4$ giving ourselves a slap, to$9$ be sure! and it was 
208:215,33[G  ]| but yesterday I was telling $EM#F$Mr%*Cole, I really was ashamed 
208:215,34[G  ]| to$9$ look$1$ at our new grand pianoforte= in$4$ the drawing-room, 
208:215,35[G  ]| while$3$ I do not know one note$0$ from another, and our little 
208:215,36[G  ]| girls, who$6#1$ are but just$5$ beginning, perhaps may$1$ never 
208:215,37[G  ]| make$1$ any*thing of it; and there is poor $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, 
208:215,38[G  ]| who$6#1$ is mistress of music, has not any*thing of the nature 
208:216,01[G  ]| of an instrument, not even$5$ the pitifullest old spinnet in$4$ 
208:216,02[G  ]| the world, to$9$ amuse herself with. ~~ I was saying this to$4$ 
208:216,03[G  ]| $EM#F$Mr%*Cole but yesterday, and he quite agreed with me; 
208:216,04[G  ]| only he is so$5#1$ particularly fond of music that$3$ he could not 
208:216,05[G  ]| help$1$ indulging himself in$4$ the purchase$0$, hoping that$3$ some 
208:216,06[G  ]| of our good neighbours might be so$5#1$ obliging occasionally 
208:216,07[G  ]| to$9$ put it to$4$ a better use$0$ than we can; and that$6#2$ really is 
208:216,08[G  ]| the reason$0$ why the instrument was bought ~~ or else I am 
208:216,09[G  ]| sure we ought to$9$ be ashamed of it. ~~ We are in$4$ great hopes$0$ 
208:216,10[G  ]| that$3$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse may$1$ be prevailed with to$9$ try it this 
208:216,11[G  ]| evening." 
208:216,12['  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse made the proper acquiescence; and 
208:216,13['  ]| finding that$3$ nothing more was to$9$ be entrapped from any 
208:216,14['  ]| communication of $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole's, turned to$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. 
208:216,15[A  ]| "Why do you smile$1$?" 
208:216,15['  ]| said she. 
208:216,16[E  ]| "Nay, why do you?" 
208:216,17[A  ]| "Me! ~~ I suppose I smile$1$ for$4$ pleasure at $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell's 
208:216,18[A  ]| being$1$ so$5#1$ rich and so$5#1$ liberal. ~~ It is a handsome 
208:216,19[A  ]| present$0#2$." 
208:216,20[E  ]| "Very." 
208:216,21[A  ]| "I rather wonder$1$ that$3$ it was never made before$5$." 
208:216,22[E  ]| "Perhaps $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax has never been staying here so$5#1$ 
208:216,23[E  ]| long before$5$." 
208:216,24[A  ]| "Or that$3$ he did not give her the use$0$ of their own$2$ 
208:216,25[A  ]| instrument ~~ which$6#1$ must now be shut up$5$ in$4$ London, 
208:216,26[A  ]| untouched by$4$ any*body." 
208:216,27[E  ]| "That$6#2$ is a grand pianoforte=, and he might think it too$5#1$ 
208:216,28[E  ]| large for$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's house." 
208:216,29[A  ]| "You may$1$ \say\ what you chuse ~~ but your countenance 
208:216,30[A  ]| testifies that$3$ your \thoughts\ on$4$ this subject$0$ are very much 
208:216,31[A  ]| like$4$ mine$6$." 
208:216,32[E  ]| "I do not know. I rather believe you are giving me 
208:216,33[E  ]| more credit$0$ for$4$ acuteness than I deserve. I smile$1$ because 
208:216,34[E  ]| you smile$1$, and shall probably suspect whatever I find you 
208:216,35[E  ]| suspect; but at present$0#1$ I do not see what there is to$9$ 
208:216,36[E  ]| question$1$. If $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell is not the person, who$6#2$ can 
208:216,37[E  ]| be?" 
208:216,38[A  ]| "What do you say to$4$ $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon?" 
208:217,01[E  ]| "$EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon! very true indeed. I had not thought$1$ 
208:217,02[E  ]| of $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon. She must know as well$5$ as her father, how 
208:217,03[E  ]| acceptable an instrument would be; and perhaps the 
208:217,04[E  ]| mode of it, the mystery, the surprize$0$, is more like$4$ a young 
208:217,05[E  ]| woman's scheme$0$ than an elderly man's. It is $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon 
208:217,06[E  ]| I dare$1#2$ say. I told you that$3$ your suspicions would guide$1$ 
208:217,07[E  ]| mine$6$." 
208:217,08[A  ]| "If so$5#2$, you must extend your suspicions and comprehend 
208:217,09[A  ]| \$EM#ZF$Mr%\*Dixon in$4$ them." 
208:217,10[E  ]| "$EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon. ~~ Very well$5$. Yes, I immediately perceive 
208:217,11[E  ]| that$3$ it must be the joint present$0#2$ of $EM#ZF$Mr% and $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon. 
208:217,12[E  ]| We were speaking the other day, you know, of his being$1$ 
208:217,13[E  ]| so$5#1$ warm$2$ an admirer of her performance." 
208:217,14[A  ]| "Yes, and what you told me on$4$ that$6#2$ head$0$, confirmed 
208:217,15[A  ]| an idea which$6#1$ I had entertained before$5$. ~~ I do not mean$1$ 
208:217,16[A  ]| to$9$ reflect upon$4$ the good intentions of either $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon 
208:217,17[A  ]| or $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, but I cannot help$1$ suspecting either that$3$, 
208:217,18[A  ]| after$4$ making his proposals to$4$ her friend, he had the 
208:217,19[A  ]| misfortune to$9$ fall$1$ in$4$ love$0$ with \her\, or that$3$ he became 
208:217,20[A  ]| conscious of a little attachment on$4$ her side$0$. One might 
208:217,21[A  ]| guess$1$ twenty things without guessing exactly the right$0$; 
208:217,22[A  ]| but I am sure there must be a particular cause for$4$ her 
208:217,23[A  ]| chusing to$9$ come to$4$ Highbury instead of going with the 
208:217,24[A  ]| $EM#ZC2$Campbells to$4$ Ireland. Here, she must be leading a life 
208:217,25[A  ]| of privation and penance; there it would have been all 
208:217,26[A  ]| enjoyment. As to$4$ the pretence of trying her native$2$ air, 
208:217,27[A  ]| I look$1$ upon$4$ that$6#2$ as a mere excuse$0$. ~~ In$4$ the summer it 
208:217,28[A  ]| might have passed; but what can any*body's native$2$ air 
208:217,29[A  ]| do for$4$ them in$4$ the months of January, February, and 
208:217,30[A  ]| March? Good fires and carriages would be much more 
208:217,31[A  ]| to$4$ the purpose in$4$ most cases of delicate health, and I dare$1#2$ 
208:217,32[A  ]| say in$4$ her's. I do not require you to$9$ adopt all my suspicions, 
208:217,33[A  ]| though you make$1$ so$5#1$ noble a profession$0#1$ of doing 
208:217,34[A  ]| it, but I honestly tell you what they are." 
208:217,35[E  ]| "And, upon$4$ my word, they have an air of great probability. 
208:217,36[E  ]| $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon's preference of her music to$4$ her friend's, 
208:217,37[E  ]| I can answer$1$ for$4$ being$1$ very decided." 
208:217,38[A  ]| "And then, he saved her life. Did you ever hear of 
208:218,01[A  ]| that$6#2$? ~~ A water-party; and by$4$ some accident she was 
208:218,02[A  ]| falling overboard. He caught her." 
208:218,03[E  ]| "He did. I was there ~~ one of the party." 
208:218,04[A  ]| "Were you really? ~~ Well$7$! ~~ But you observed nothing 
208:218,05[A  ]| of course$8$, for$3$ it seems to$9$ be a new idea to$4$ you. ~~ 
208:218,06[A  ]| If I had been there, I think I should have made some 
208:218,07[A  ]| discoveries." 
208:218,08[E  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say you would; but I, simple$2$ I, saw nothing 
208:218,09[E  ]| but the fact, that$3$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax was nearly dashed from 
208:218,10[E  ]| the vessel and that$3$ $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon caught her. ~~ It was the 
208:218,11[E  ]| work$0$ of a moment. And though the consequent shock$0$ 
208:218,12[E  ]| and alarm$0$ was very great and much more durable ~~ 
208:218,13[E  ]| indeed I believe it was half an hour before$3$ any of us were 
208:218,14[E  ]| comfortable again ~~ yet that$6#2$ was too$5#1$ general$2$ a sensation$0#1$ 
208:218,15[E  ]| for$4$ any*thing of peculiar anxiety to$9$ be observable. I do 
208:218,16[E  ]| not mean$1$ to$9$ say, however, that$3$ you might not have 
208:218,17[E  ]| made discoveries." 
208:218,18['  ]| The conversation was here interrupted. They were 
208:218,19['  ]| called on$5$ to$9$ share$1$ in$4$ the awkwardness of a rather long 
208:218,20['  ]| interval between the courses, and obliged to$9$ be as formal 
208:218,21['  ]| and as orderly as the others; but when the table was 
208:218,22['  ]| again safely covered, when every corner dish was placed 
208:218,23['  ]| exactly right$2#1$, and occupation and ease$0$ were generally 
208:218,24['  ]| restored, $EM#A$Emma said, 
208:218,25[A  ]| "The arrival of this pianoforte= is decisive with me. 
208:218,26[A  ]| I wanted to$9$ know a little more, and this tells me quite 
208:218,27[A  ]| enough. Depend upon$4$ it, we shall soon hear that$3$ it is 
208:218,28[A  ]| a present$0#2$ from $EM#ZF$Mr% and $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon." 
208:218,29[E  ]| "And if the $EM#ZF2$Dixons should absolutely deny all knowledge 
208:218,30[E  ]| of it we must conclude it to$9$ come from the $EM#ZC2$Campbells." 
208:218,32[A  ]| "No$7$, I am sure it is not from the $EM#ZC2$Campbells. $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
208:218,33[A  ]| knows it is not from the $EM#ZC2$Campbells, or they would 
208:218,34[A  ]| have been guessed at first. She would not have been 
208:218,35[A  ]| puzzled, had she dared fix on$4$ them. I may$1$ not have 
208:218,36[A  ]| convinced you perhaps, but I am perfectly convinced 
208:218,37[A  ]| myself that$3$ $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon is a principal$0$ in$4$ the business." 
208:218,38[E  ]| "Indeed you injure me if you suppose me unconvinced. 
208:219,01[E  ]| Your reasonings carry my judgment along$5$ with 
208:219,02[E  ]| them entirely. At first, while$3$ I supposed you satisfied 
208:219,03[E  ]| that$3$ $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell was the giver, I saw it only as paternal 
208:219,04[E  ]| kindness, and thought$1$ it the most natural$2$ thing in$4$ the 
208:219,05[E  ]| world. But when you mentioned $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon, I felt how 
208:219,06[E  ]| much more probable that$3$ it should be the tribute of 
208:219,07[E  ]| warm$2$ female$2$ friendship. And now I can see it in$4$ no$2$ 
208:219,08[E  ]| other light$0$ than as an offering of love$0$." 
208:219,09@a   | There was no$2$ occasion$0$ to$9$ press$1$ the matter farther. 
208:219,10@a   | The conviction seemed real; he looked as if he felt it. 
208:219,11['  ]| She said no$2$ more, other subjects took their turn$0$; and 
208:219,12['  ]| the rest$0#1$ of the dinner passed away; the dessert succeeded, 
208:219,13['  ]| the children came in$5$, and were talked to$5$ and admired 
208:219,14['  ]| amid the usual rate$0$ of conversation; a few clever things 
208:219,15['  ]| said, a few downright silly, but by$4$ much the larger proportion 
208:219,16['  ]| neither the one nor the other ~~ nothing worse 
208:219,17['  ]| than every*day remarks, dull repetitions, old news, and 
208:219,18['  ]| heavy jokes. 
208:219,19['  ]| The ladies had not been long in$4$ the drawing-room, 
208:219,20['  ]| before$3$ the other ladies, in$4$ their different divisions, arrived. 
208:219,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma watched the entre=e of her own$2$ particular little 
208:219,22['  ]| friend; and if she could not exult in$4$ her dignity and grace$0$,
208:219,23['  ]| she could not only love$1$ the blooming sweetness and the 
208:219,24['  ]| artless manner, but could most heartily rejoice in$4$ that$6#2$ 
208:219,25['  ]| light$0$, cheerful, unsentimental disposition which$6#1$ allowed 
208:219,26['  ]| her so$5#1$ many alleviations of pleasure, in$4$ the midst of the 
208:219,27['  ]| pangs of disappointed affection. 
208:219,27@a   | There she sat ~~ and who$6#2$ 
208:219,28@a   | would have guessed how many tears she had been lately 
208:219,29@a   | shedding? To$9$ be in$4$ company, nicely dressed herself and 
208:219,30@a   | seeing others nicely dressed, to$9$ sit and smile$1$ and 
208:219,31@a   | look$1$ pretty$2$, and say nothing, was enough for$4$ the happiness 
208:219,32@a   | of the present$2$ hour. $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax did look$1$ and move$1$ 
208:219,33@a   | superior; 
208:219,33['  ]| but $EM#A$Emma suspected 
208:219,33@a   | she might have been glad 
208:219,34@a   | to$9$ change$1$ feelings with $EM#M$Harriet, very glad to$9$ have purchased 
208:219,35@a   | the mortification of having loved ~~ yes, of having 
208:219,36@a   | loved even$5$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton in$4$ vain ~~ by$4$ the surrender$0$ of all the 
208:219,37@a   | dangerous pleasure of knowing herself beloved by$4$ the 
208:219,38@a   | husband of her friend. 
208:220,01['  ]| In$4$ so$5#1$ large a party it was not necessary that$3$ $EM#A$Emma 
208:220,02['  ]| should approach$1$ her. She did not wish$1$ to$9$ speak of the 
208:220,03['  ]| pianoforte=, she felt too$5#1$ much in$4$ the secret$0$ herself, to$9$ think 
208:220,04['  ]| the appearance of curiosity or interest$0$ fair, and therefore 
208:220,05['  ]| purposely kept at a distance$0$; but by$4$ the others, the 
208:220,06['  ]| subject$0$ was almost immediately introduced, and she saw 
208:220,07['  ]| the blush$0$ of consciousness with which$6#1$ congratulations 
208:220,08['  ]| were received, the blush$0$ of guilt which$6#1$ accompanied the 
208:220,09['  ]| name$0$ of 
208:220,09[J  ]| "my excellent friend $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell." 
208:220,10['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, kind-hearted and musical, was particularly 
208:220,11['  ]| interested by$4$ the circumstance, and $EM#A$Emma could 
208:220,12['  ]| not help$1$ being$1$ amused at her perseverance in$4$ dwelling on$4$ 
208:220,13['  ]| the subject$0$; and having so$5#1$ much to$9$ ask and to$9$ say as 
208:220,14['  ]| to$4$ tone, touch$0$, and pedal, totally unsuspicious of that$6#2$ 
208:220,15['  ]| wish$0$ of saying as little about$4$ it as possible, which$6#1$ she 
208:220,16['  ]| plainly read in$4$ the fair heroine's countenance. 
208:220,17['  ]| They were soon joined by$4$ some of the gentlemen; and 
208:220,18['  ]| the very first of the early was $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. In$5$ he 
208:220,19['  ]| walked, the first and the handsomest; and after$4$ paying 
208:220,20['  ]| his compliments en*passant to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates and her niece, 
208:220,21['  ]| made his way directly to$4$ the opposite side$0$ of the circle, 
208:220,22['  ]| where sat $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse; and till he could find a seat 
208:220,23['  ]| by$4$ her, would not sit at all. $EM#A$Emma divined what every*body 
208:220,24['  ]| present$5$ must be thinking. 
208:220,24@a   | She was his object$0$, and 
208:220,25@a   | every*body must perceive it. 
208:220,25['  ]| She introduced him to$4$ her 
208:220,26['  ]| friend, $EM#M$Miss*Smith, and, at convenient moments afterwards, 
208:220,27['  ]| heard what each thought$1$ of the other. 
208:220,27@e   | "He had 
208:220,28@e   | never seen so$5#1$ lovely a face$0$, and was delighted with her 
208:220,29@e   | nai^vete=." 
208:220,29['  ]| And she, ~~ 
208:220,29@m   | "Only to$9$ be sure it was paying him 
208:220,30@m   | too$5#1$ great a compliment$0$, but she did think there were some 
208:220,31@m   | looks$0$ a little like$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton." 
208:220,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma restrained her 
208:220,32['  ]| indignation, and only turned from her in$4$ silence$0$. 
208:220,33['  ]| Smiles of intelligence passed between her and the gentleman 
208:220,34['  ]| on$4$ first glancing towards $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax; but it was 
208:220,35['  ]| most prudent to$9$ avoid speech. He told her that$3$ 
208:220,35@e   | he had 
208:220,36@e   | been impatient to$9$ leave$1$ the dining-room ~~ hated sitting 
208:220,37@e   | long ~~ was always the first to$9$ move$1$ when he could ~~ that$3$ 
208:220,38@e   | his father, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, $EM#ZE$Mr%*Cox, and $EM#F$Mr%*Cole, were 
208:221,01@e   | left very busy over parish business ~~ that$3$ as long as he 
208:221,02@e   | had staid, however, it had been pleasant enough, as he 
208:221,03@e   | found them in$4$ general$0$ a set$0$ of gentlemen-like, sensible$2#2$ 
208:221,04@e   | men; 
208:221,04['  ]| and spoke so$5#1$ handsomely of Highbury altogether ~~ 
208:221,05@e   | thought$1$ it so$5#1$ abundant in$4$ agreeable families ~~ 
208:221,05['  ]| that$3$ $EM#A$Emma 
208:221,06['  ]| began to$9$ feel 
208:221,06@a   | she had been used to$9$ despise the place$0$ rather 
208:221,07@a   | too$5#1$ much. 
208:221,07['  ]| She questioned him as to$4$ the society in$4$ 
208:221,08['  ]| Yorkshire ~~ the extent of the neighbourhood about$4$ 
208:221,09['  ]| Enscombe, and the sort; and could make$1$ out$5$ from his 
208:221,10['  ]| answers that$3$, as far as Enscombe was concerned, there 
208:221,11['  ]| was very little going on$5$; that$3$ their visitings were among 
208:221,12['  ]| a range$0$ of great families, none very near$5$; and that$3$ even$5$ 
208:221,13['  ]| when days were fixed, and invitations accepted, it was an 
208:221,14['  ]| even$2$ chance$0$ that$3$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill were not in$4$ health or 
208:221,15['  ]| spirits for$4$ going; that$3$ they made a point$0$ of visiting no$2$ 
208:221,16['  ]| fresh person; and that$3$, though he had his separate$2$ 
208:221,17['  ]| engagements, it was not without difficulty, without considerable 
208:221,18['  ]| address$0$ \at\ \times\, that$3$ he could get away, or 
208:221,19['  ]| introduce an acquaintance for$4$ a night. 
208:221,20['  ]| She saw that$3$ 
208:221,20@a   | Enscombe could not satisfy, and that$3$ 
208:221,21@a   | Highbury, taken in$4$ its best, might reasonably please 
208:221,22@a   | a young man who$6#1$ had more retirement at home than he 
208:221,23@a   | liked. His importance at Enscombe was very evident. 
208:221,24@a   | He did not boast$1$, but it naturally betrayed itself, that$3$ he 
208:221,25@a   | had persuaded his aunt where his uncle could do nothing, 
208:221,26['  ]| and on$4$ her laughing and noticing it, he owned that$3$ 
208:221,26@e   | he 
208:221,27@e   | believed (excepting one or two points) he could \with\ \time\ 
208:221,28@e   | persuade her to$4$ any*thing. 
208:221,28['  ]| One of those points on$4$ which$6#1$ 
208:221,29['  ]| his influence$0$ failed, he then mentioned. 
208:221,29@e   | He had wanted 
208:221,30@e   | very much to$9$ go abroad ~~ had been very eager indeed 
208:221,31@e   | to$9$ be allowed to$9$ travel ~~ but she would not hear of it. 
208:221,32@e   | This had happened the year before$5$. \Now\, 
208:221,32['  ]| he said, 
208:221,32@e   | he was 
208:221,33@e   | beginning to$9$ have no$2$ longer the same wish$0$. 
208:221,34['  ]| The unpersuadable point$0$, which$6#1$ he did not mention$1$, 
208:221,35['  ]| $EM#A$Emma guessed to$9$ be good behaviour to$4$ his father. 
208:221,36[E  ]| "I have made a most wretched discovery," 
208:221,36['  ]| said he, 
208:221,37['  ]| after$4$ a short pause$0$. ~~ 
208:221,37[E  ]| "I have been here a week to-morrow 
208:221,38[E  ]| ~~ half my time. I never knew days fly$1$ so$5#1$ fast. A week 
208:222,01[E  ]| to-morrow! ~~ And I have hardly begun to$9$ enjoy myself. 
208:222,02[E  ]| But just$5$ got acquainted with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, and others! ~~ 
208:222,03[E  ]| I hate the recollection." 
208:222,04[A  ]| "Perhaps you may$1$ now begin to$9$ regret$1$ that$3$ you spent 
208:222,05[A  ]| one whole$2$ day, out$5$ of so$5#1$ few, in$4$ having your hair cut$1$." 
208:222,06[E  ]| "No$7$," 
208:222,06['  ]| said he, smiling, 
208:222,06[E  ]| "that$6#2$ is no$2$ subject$0$ of regret$0$ 
208:222,07[E  ]| at all. I have no$2$ pleasure in$4$ seeing my friends, unless 
208:222,08[E  ]| I can believe myself fit$2$ to$9$ be seen." 
208:222,09['  ]| The rest$0#1$ of the gentlemen being$1$ now in$4$ the room, $EM#A$Emma 
208:222,10['  ]| found herself obliged to$9$ turn$1$ from him for$4$ a few minutes, 
208:222,11['  ]| and listen to$4$ $EM#F$Mr%*Cole. When $EM#F$Mr%*Cole had moved away, 
208:222,12['  ]| and her attention could be restored as before$5$, she saw 
208:222,13['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill looking intently across$4$ the room at $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
208:222,14['  ]| who$6#1$ was sitting exactly opposite. 
208:222,15[A  ]| "What is the matter?" 
208:222,15['  ]| said she. 
208:222,16['  ]| He started. 
208:222,16[E  ]| "Thank you for$4$ rousing me," 
208:222,16['  ]| he replied. 
208:222,17[E  ]| "I believe I have been very rude; but really $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
208:222,18[E  ]| has done her hair in$4$ so$5#1$ odd a way ~~ so$5#1$ very odd a way ~~ 
208:222,19[E  ]| that$3$ I cannot keep my eyes from her. I never saw any*thing 
208:222,20[E  ]| so$5#1$ outre=e! ~~ Those curls! ~~ This must be a fancy$0$ of 
208:222,21[E  ]| her own$2$. I see nobody else looking like$4$ her! ~~ I must go 
208:222,22[E  ]| and ask her whether it is an Irish fashion$0$. Shall I? ~~ Yes, 
208:222,23[E  ]| I will$1$ ~~ I declare I will$1$ ~~ and you shall see how she takes 
208:222,24[E  ]| it; ~~ whether she colours." 
208:222,25['  ]| He was gone immediately; and $EM#A$Emma soon saw him 
208:222,26['  ]| standing before$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, and talking to$4$ her; but 
208:222,26@a   | as 
208:222,27@a   | to$4$ its effect$0$ on$4$ the young lady, as he had improvidently 
208:222,28@a   | placed himself exactly between them, exactly in$4$ front$0$ of 
208:222,29@a   | $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, she could absolutely distinguish nothing. 
208:222,30['  ]| Before$3$ he could return$1$ to$4$ his chair, it was taken by$4$ 
208:222,31['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
208:222,32[O  ]| "This is the luxury of a large party," 
208:222,32['  ]| said she: ~~ 
208:222,32[O  ]| "one 
208:222,33[O  ]| can get near$4$ every*body, and say every*thing. My dear$2#1$ 
208:222,34[O  ]| $EM#A$Emma, I am longing to$9$ talk$1$ to$4$ you. I have been making 
208:222,35[O  ]| discoveries and forming plans, just$5$ like$4$ yourself, and 
208:222,36[O  ]| I must tell them while$3$ the idea is fresh. Do you know how 
208:222,37[O  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates and her niece came here?" 
208:222,38[A  ]| "How! ~~ They were invited, were not they?" 
208:223,01[O  ]| "Oh! yes ~~ but how they were conveyed hither? ~~ the 
208:223,02[O  ]| manner of their coming?" 
208:223,03[A  ]| "They walked, I conclude. How else could they come?" 
208:223,04[O  ]| "Very true. ~~ Well$7$, a little while$0$ ago it occurred to$4$ me 
208:223,05[O  ]| how very sad it would be to$9$ have $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax walking 
208:223,06[O  ]| home again, late at night, and cold$2$ as the nights are now. 
208:223,07[O  ]| And as I looked at her, though I never saw her appear to$4$ 
208:223,08[O  ]| more advantage, it struck me that$3$ she was heated, and 
208:223,09[O  ]| would therefore be particularly liable to$9$ take cold$0$. Poor 
208:223,10[O  ]| girl! I could not bear$1$ the idea of it; so$3$, as soon as 
208:223,11[O  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston came into the room, and I could get at him, 
208:223,12[O  ]| I spoke to$4$ him about$4$ the carriage. You may$1$ guess$1$ how 
208:223,13[O  ]| readily he came into my wishes$0$; and having his approbation, 
208:223,14[O  ]| I made my way directly to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates, to$9$ assure her 
208:223,15[O  ]| that$3$ the carriage would be at her service before$3$ it took 
208:223,16[O  ]| us home; for$3$ I thought$1$ it would be making her comfortable 
208:223,17[O  ]| at once. Good soul! she was as grateful as possible, 
208:223,18[O  ]| you may$1$ be sure. 
208:223,18@d   | ""Nobody was ever so$5#1$ fortunate as 
208:223,19@d   | herself!"" ~~ 
208:223,19[O  ]| but with many, many thanks, ~~ 
208:223,19@d   | ""there was no$2$ 
208:223,20@d   | occasion$0$ to$9$ trouble$1$ us, for$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's carriage had 
208:223,21@d   | brought, and was to$9$ take them home again."" 
208:223,21[O  ]| I was quite 
208:223,22[O  ]| surprized; ~~ very glad, I am sure; but really quite 
208:223,23[O  ]| surprized. Such a very kind$2$ attention ~~ and so$5#1$ thoughtful 
208:223,24[O  ]| an attention! ~~ the sort of thing that$6#1$ so$5#1$ few men would 
208:223,25[O  ]| think of. And, in$4$ short, from knowing his usual ways, 
208:223,26[O  ]| I am very much inclined to$9$ think that$3$ it was for$4$ their 
208:223,27[O  ]| accommodation the carriage was used at all. I do suspect 
208:223,28[O  ]| he would not have had a pair$0$ of horses for$4$ himself, and that$3$ 
208:223,29[O  ]| it was only as an excuse$0$ for$4$ assisting them." 
208:223,30[A  ]| "Very likely," 
208:223,30['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma ~~ 
208:223,30[A  ]| "nothing more likely. 
208:223,31[A  ]| I know no$2$ man more likely than $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley to$9$ do the 
208:223,32[A  ]| sort of thing ~~ to$9$ do any*thing really good-natured, useful, 
208:223,33[A  ]| considerate, or benevolent. He is not a gallant man, but 
208:223,34[A  ]| he is a very humane one; and this, considering $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's 
208:223,35[A  ]| ill*health, would appear a case of humanity to$4$ 
208:223,36[A  ]| him; ~~ and for$4$ an act$0$ of un-ostentatious kindness, there is 
208:223,37[A  ]| nobody whom$6#1$ I would fix on$4$ more than on$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
208:223,38[A  ]| I know he had horses to-day ~~ for$3$ we arrived together; 
208:224,01[A  ]| and I laughed at him about$4$ it, but he said not a word that$6#1$ 
208:224,02[A  ]| could betray." 
208:224,03[O  ]| "Well$7$," 
208:224,03['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, smiling, 
208:224,03[O  ]| "you give him 
208:224,04[O  ]| credit$0$ for$4$ more simple$2$, disinterested benevolence in$4$ this 
208:224,05[O  ]| instance$0$ than I do; for$3$ while$3$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates was speaking, 
208:224,06[O  ]| a suspicion darted into my head$0$, and I have never been 
208:224,07[O  ]| able to$9$ get it out$5$ again. The more I think of it, the more 
208:224,08[O  ]| probable it appears. In$4$ short, I have made a match$0$ 
208:224,09[O  ]| between $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. See the consequence 
208:224,10[O  ]| of keeping you company! ~~ What do you say 
208:224,11[O  ]| to$4$ it?" 
208:224,12[A  ]| "$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax!" 
208:224,12['  ]| exclaimed $EM#A$Emma. 
208:224,13[A  ]| "Dear$2#1$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, how could you think of such a 
208:224,14[A  ]| thing? ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley! ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley must not 
208:224,15[A  ]| marry! ~~ You would not have little $EM#L1$Henry cut$1$ out$5$ from 
208:224,16[A  ]| Donwell? ~~ Oh! no$7$, no$7$, $EM#L1$Henry must have Donwell. 
208:224,17[A  ]| I cannot at all consent$1$ to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's marrying; and 
208:224,18[A  ]| I am sure it is not at all likely. I am amazed that$3$ you 
208:224,19[A  ]| should think of such a thing." 
208:224,20[O  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, I have told you what led me to$9$ think 
208:224,21[O  ]| of it. I do not want$1$ the match$0$ ~~ I do not want$1$ to$9$ injure 
208:224,22[O  ]| dear$2#1$ little $EM#L1$Henry ~~ but the idea has been given me by$4$ 
208:224,23[O  ]| circumstances; and if $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley really wished to$9$ 
208:224,24[O  ]| marry, you would not have him refrain on$4$ $EM#L1$Henry's account$0$, 
208:224,25[O  ]| a boy of six years old, who$6#1$ knows nothing of the matter?" 
208:224,26[A  ]| "Yes, I would. I could not bear$1$ to$9$ have $EM#L1$Henry supplanted. ~~ 
208:224,27[A  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley marry! ~~ No$7$, I have never had 
208:224,28[A  ]| such an idea, and I cannot adopt it now. And $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, 
208:224,29[A  ]| too$5#2$, of all women!" 
208:224,30[O  ]| "Nay, she has always been a first favourite$0$ with him, 
208:224,31[O  ]| as you very well$5$ know." 
208:224,32[A  ]| "But the imprudence of such a match$0$!" 
208:224,33[O  ]| "I am not speaking of its prudence; merely its 
208:224,34[O  ]| probability." 
208:224,35[A  ]| "I see no$2$ probability in$4$ it, unless you have any better 
208:224,36[A  ]| foundation than what you mention$1$. His good-nature, 
208:224,37[A  ]| his humanity, as I tell you, would be quite enough to$9$ 
208:224,38[A  ]| account$1$ for$4$ the horses. He has a great regard$0$ for$4$ the 
208:225,01[A  ]| $EM#C1$Bateses, you know, independent of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax ~~ and is 
208:225,02[A  ]| always glad to$9$ shew$1$ them attention. My dear$2#1$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
208:225,03[A  ]| do not take to$4$ match-making. You do it very ill. $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
208:225,04[A  ]| mistress of the Abbey! ~~ Oh! no$7$, no$7$; ~~ every 
208:225,05[A  ]| feeling revolts. For$4$ his own$2$ sake, I would not have him 
208:225,06[A  ]| do so$5#1$ mad a thing." 
208:225,07[O  ]| "Imprudent, if you please ~~ but not mad. Excepting 
208:225,08[O  ]| inequality of fortune, and perhaps a little disparity of age, 
208:225,09[O  ]| I can see nothing unsuitable." 
208:225,10[A  ]| "But $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley does not want$1$ to$9$ marry. I am 
208:225,11[A  ]| sure he has not the least idea of it. Do not put it into his 
208:225,12[A  ]| head$0$. Why should he marry? ~~ He is as happy as possible 
208:225,13[A  ]| by$4$ himself; with his farm, and his sheep, and his library, 
208:225,14[A  ]| and all the parish to$9$ manage; and he is extremely fond 
208:225,15[A  ]| of his brother's children. He has no$2$ occasion$0$ to$9$ marry, 
208:225,16[A  ]| either to$9$ fill up$5$ his time or his heart." 
208:225,17[O  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, as long as he thinks so$5#2$, it is so$5#2$; but 
208:225,18[O  ]| if he really loves $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax ~~" 
208:225,19[A  ]| "Nonsense! He does not care$1$ about$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. In$4$ 
208:225,20[A  ]| the way of love$0$, I am sure he does not. He would do any 
208:225,21[A  ]| good to$4$ her, or her family; but ~~" 
208:225,22[O  ]| "Well$7$," 
208:225,22['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, laughing, 
208:225,22[O  ]| "perhaps the 
208:225,23[O  ]| greatest good he could do them, would be to$9$ give $EM#J$Jane 
208:225,24[O  ]| such a respectable home." 
208:225,25[A  ]| "If it would be good to$4$ her, I am sure it would be evil 
208:225,26[A  ]| to$4$ himself; a very shameful and degrading connection. 
208:225,27[A  ]| How would he bear$1$ to$9$ have $EM#D$Miss*Bates belonging to$4$ him? 
208:225,28[A  ]| ~~ To$9$ have her haunting the Abbey, and thanking him 
208:225,29[A  ]| all day long for$4$ his great kindness in$4$ marrying $EM#J$Jane? ~~ 
208:225,30[A  ]| ""So$5#1$ very kind$2$ and obliging! ~~ But he always had been 
208:225,31[A  ]| such a very kind$2$ neighbour!"" And then fly$1$ off, through$4$ 
208:225,32[A  ]| half a sentence, to$4$ her mother's old petticoat. ""Not that$3$ 
208:225,33[A  ]| it was such a very old petticoat either ~~ for$3$ still$5$ it would 
208:225,34[A  ]| last$1$ a great while$0$ ~~ and, indeed, she must thankfully say 
208:225,35[A  ]| that$3$ their petticoats were all very strong." 
208:225,36[O  ]| "For$4$ shame$0$, $EM#A$Emma! Do not mimic her. You divert 
208:225,37[O  ]| me against my conscience. And, upon$4$ my word, I do not 
208:225,38[O  ]| think $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley would be much disturbed by$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates. 
208:226,01[O  ]| Little things do not irritate him. She might talk$1$ 
208:226,02[O  ]| on$5$; and if he wanted to$9$ say any*thing himself, he would 
208:226,03[O  ]| only talk$1$ louder, and drown her voice. But the question$0$ 
208:226,04[O  ]| is not, whether it would be a bad connexion for$4$ him, but 
208:226,05[O  ]| whether he wishes$1$ it; and I think he does. I have heard 
208:226,06[O  ]| him speak, and so$3$ must you, so$5#1$ very highly of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax! 
208:226,07[O  ]| The interest$0$ he takes in$4$ her ~~ his anxiety about$4$ 
208:226,08[O  ]| her health ~~ his concern$0$ that$3$ she should have no$2$ happier 
208:226,09[O  ]| prospect! I have heard him express$1$ himself so$5#1$ warmly 
208:226,10[O  ]| on$4$ those points! ~~ Such an admirer of her performance 
208:226,11[O  ]| on$4$ the pianoforte=, and of her voice! I have heard him say 
208:226,12[O  ]| that$3$ he could listen to$4$ her for*ever. Oh! and I had almost 
208:226,13[O  ]| forgotten one idea that$6#1$ occurred to$4$ me ~~ this pianoforte= 
208:226,14[O  ]| that$6#1$ has been sent her by$4$ somebody ~~ though we have all 
208:226,15[O  ]| been so$5#1$ well$5$ satisfied to$9$ consider it a present$0#2$ from the 
208:226,16[O  ]| $EM#ZC2$Campbells, may$1$ it not be from $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley? I cannot 
208:226,17[O  ]| help$1$ suspecting him. I think he is just$5$ the person to$9$ do 
208:226,18[O  ]| it, even$5$ without being$1$ in$4$ love$0$." 
208:226,19[A  ]| "Then it can be no$2$ argument to$9$ prove that$3$ he is in$4$ 
208:226,20[A  ]| love$0$. But I do not think it is at all a likely thing for$4$ him 
208:226,21[A  ]| to$9$ do. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley does nothing mysteriously." 
208:226,22[O  ]| "I have heard him lamenting her having no$2$ instrument 
208:226,23[O  ]| repeatedly; oftener than I should suppose such a circumstance 
208:226,24[O  ]| would, in$4$ the common$2$ course$0$ of things, occur to$4$ 
208:226,25[O  ]| him." 
208:226,26[A  ]| "Very well$5$; and if he had intended to$9$ give her one, 
208:226,27[A  ]| he would have told her so$5#2$." 
208:226,28[O  ]| "There might be scruples of delicacy, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma. 
208:226,29[O  ]| I have a very strong notion that$3$ it comes from him. 
208:226,30[O  ]| I am sure he was particularly silent when $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole told 
208:226,31[O  ]| us of it at dinner." 
208:226,32[A  ]| "You take up$5$ an idea, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, and run$1$ away 
208:226,33[A  ]| with it; as you have many a time reproached me with 
208:226,34[A  ]| doing. I see no$2$ sign of attachment ~~ I believe nothing 
208:226,35[A  ]| of the pianoforte= ~~ and proof only shall convince me that$3$ 
208:226,36[A  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley has any thought$1$ of marrying $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax." 
208:226,37['  ]| They combated the point$0$ some time longer in$4$ the same 
208:226,38['  ]| way; $EM#A$Emma rather gaining ground over the mind$0$ of her 
208:227,01['  ]| friend; for$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was the most used of the two 
208:227,02['  ]| to$9$ yield; till a little bustle$0$ in$4$ the room shewed them that$3$ 
208:227,03['  ]| tea was over, and the instrument in$4$ preparation; ~~ and 
208:227,04['  ]| at the same moment $EM#F$Mr%*Cole approaching to$9$ entreat 
208:227,05['  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse would do them the honour$0$ of trying it. 
208:227,06['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, of whom$6#1$, in$4$ the eagerness of her conversation 
208:227,07['  ]| with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, she had been seeing nothing, 
208:227,08['  ]| except that$3$ he had found a seat by$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, followed 
208:227,09['  ]| $EM#F$Mr%*Cole, to$9$ add his very pressing entreaties; and as, in$4$ 
208:227,10['  ]| every respect$0$, it suited $EM#A$Emma best to$9$ lead$1$, she gave a very 
208:227,11['  ]| proper compliance. 
208:227,12['  ]| She knew the limitations of her own$2$ powers too$5#1$ well$5$ to$9$ 
208:227,13['  ]| attempt$1$ more than she could perform with credit$0$; she 
208:227,14['  ]| wanted neither taste nor spirit in$4$ the little things which$6#1$ are 
208:227,15['  ]| generally acceptable, and could accompany her own$2$ voice 
208:227,16['  ]| well$5$. One accompaniment to$4$ her song took her agreeably 
208:227,17['  ]| by$4$ surprize$0$ ~~ a second$0$, slightly but correctly taken by$4$ 
208:227,18['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. Her pardon$0$ was duly begged at the close$0$ 
208:227,19['  ]| of the song, and every*thing usual followed. He was 
208:227,20['  ]| accused of having a delightful voice, and a perfect$2$ knowledge 
208:227,21['  ]| of music; which$6#1$ was properly denied; and that$3$ he 
208:227,22['  ]| knew nothing of the matter, and had no$2$ voice at all, 
208:227,23['  ]| roundly asserted. They sang together once more; and 
208:227,24['  ]| $EM#A$Emma would then resign her place$0$ to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, whose$6#1$ 
208:227,25['  ]| performance, both vocal and instrumental, she never 
208:227,26['  ]| could attempt$1$ to$9$ conceal from herself, was infinitely 
208:227,27['  ]| superior to$4$ her own$2$. 
208:227,28['  ]| With mixed feelings, she seated herself at a little distance$0$ 
208:227,29['  ]| from the numbers round$4$ the instrument, to$9$ listen. 
208:227,30['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill sang again. They had sung together 
208:227,31['  ]| once or twice, it appeared, at Weymouth. But the sight 
208:227,32['  ]| of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley among the most attentive, soon drew 
208:227,33['  ]| away half $EM#A$Emma's mind$0$; and she fell into a train of 
208:227,34['  ]| thinking on$4$ the subject$0$ of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's suspicions, to$4$ 
208:227,35['  ]| which$6#1$ the sweet sounds$0$ of the united voices gave only 
208:227,36['  ]| momentary interruptions. Her objections to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
208:227,37['  ]| marrying did not in$4$ the least subside. 
208:227,37@a   | She could see 
208:227,38@a   | nothing but evil in$4$ it. It would be a great disappointment 
208:228,01@a   | to$4$ $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley; consequently to$4$ $EM#L$Isabella. A real 
208:228,02@a   | injury to$4$ the children ~~ a most mortifying change$0$, and 
208:228,03@a   | material$2$ loss to$4$ them all; ~~ a very great deduction from 
208:228,04@a   | her father's daily comfort$0$ ~~ and, as to$4$ herself, she could 
208:228,05@a   | not at all endure the idea of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax at Donwell*Abbey. 
208:228,06@a   | A $EM#X4$Mrs%*Knightley for$4$ them all to$9$ give way to$4$! ~~ 
208:228,07@a   | No$7$ ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley must never marry. Little $EM#L1$Henry 
208:228,08@a   | must remain the heir of Donwell. 
208:228,09['  ]| Presently $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley looked back$5$, and came and 
208:228,10['  ]| sat down$5$ by$4$ her. They talked at first only of the performance. 
208:228,11@a   | His admiration was certainly very warm$2$; yet 
208:228,12['  ]| she thought$1$, 
208:228,12@a   | but for$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, it would not have 
208:228,13@a   | struck her. As a sort of touchstone, however, she began 
208:228,14@a   | to$9$ speak of his kindness in$4$ conveying the aunt and niece; 
208:228,15@a   | and though his answer$0$ was in$4$ the spirit of cutting the 
208:228,16@a   | matter short, she believed it to$9$ indicate only his disinclination 
208:228,17@a   | to$9$ dwell on$4$ any kindness of his own$2$. 
208:228,18[A  ]| "I often feel concerned," 
208:228,18['  ]| said she, 
208:228,18[A  ]| "that$3$ I dare$1#2$ not 
208:228,19[A  ]| make$1$ \our\ carriage more useful on$4$ such occasions. It is 
208:228,20[A  ]| not that$3$ I am without the wish$0$; but you know how 
208:228,21[A  ]| impossible my father would deem it that$3$ $EM#ZI$James should 
208:228,22[A  ]| put-to for$4$ such a purpose." 
208:228,23[B  ]| "Quite out$5$ of the question$0$, quite out$5$ of the question$0$," 
208:228,24['  ]| he replied; ~~ 
208:228,24[B  ]| "but you must often wish$1$ it, I am sure." 
208:228,25['  ]| And he smiled with such seeming pleasure at the conviction, 
208:228,26['  ]| that$3$ she must proceed another step$0$. 
208:228,27[A  ]| "This present$0#2$ from the $EM#ZC2$Campbells," 
208:228,27['  ]| said she ~~ 
208:228,27[A  ]| "This 
208:228,28[A  ]| pianoforte= is very kindly given." 
208:228,29[B  ]| "Yes," 
208:228,29['  ]| he replied, and without the smallest apparent 
208:228,30['  ]| embarrassment. ~~ 
208:228,30[B  ]| "But they would have done better had 
208:228,31[B  ]| they given her notice$0$ of it. Surprizes are foolish things. 
208:228,32[B  ]| The pleasure is not enhanced, and the inconvenience is 
208:228,33[B  ]| often considerable. I should have expected better judgment 
208:228,34[B  ]| in$4$ $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell." 
208:228,35['  ]| From that$6#2$ moment, $EM#A$Emma could have taken her oath 
208:228,36['  ]| that$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had had no$2$ concern$0$ in$4$ giving the 
208:228,37['  ]| instrument. But whether he were entirely free from 
208:228,38['  ]| peculiar attachment ~~ whether there were no$2$ actual 
208:229,01['  ]| preference ~~ remained a little longer doubtful. Towards 
208:229,02['  ]| the end$0$ of $EM#J$Jane's second$2$ song, her voice grew thick. 
208:229,03[B  ]| "That$6#2$ will$1$ do," 
208:229,03['  ]| said he, when it was finished, thinking 
208:229,04['  ]| aloud ~~ 
208:229,04[B  ]| "You have sung quite enough for$4$ one evening ~~ 
208:229,05[B  ]| now, be quiet$2$." 
208:229,06['  ]| Another song, however, was soon begged for$5$. 
208:229,06[X  ]| "One 
208:229,07[X  ]| more; ~~ they would not fatigue$1$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax on$4$ any 
208:229,08[X  ]| account$0$, and would only ask for$4$ one more." 
208:229,08['  ]| And $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
208:229,09['  ]| was heard to$9$ say, 
208:229,09[E  ]| "I think you could manage 
208:229,10[E  ]| this without effort; the first part$0$ is so$5#1$ trifling. The 
208:229,11[E  ]| strength of the song falls on$4$ the second$2$." 
208:229,12['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley grew angry. 
208:229,13[B  ]| "That$6#2$ fellow," 
208:229,13['  ]| said he, indignantly, 
208:229,13[B  ]| "thinks of nothing 
208:229,14[B  ]| but showing off his own$2$ voice. This must not be." 
208:229,14['  ]| And 
208:229,15['  ]| touching $EM#D$Miss*Bates, who$6#1$ at that$6#2$ moment passed near$5$ ~~ 
208:229,16[B  ]| "$EM#D$Miss*Bates, are you mad, to$9$ let your niece sing herself 
208:229,17[B  ]| hoarse in$4$ this manner? Go, and interfere. They have 
208:229,18[B  ]| no$2$ mercy on$4$ her." 
208:229,19['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates, in$4$ her real anxiety for$4$ $EM#J$Jane, could hardly 
208:229,20['  ]| stay$1$ even$5$ to$9$ be grateful, before$3$ she stept forward$5$ and 
208:229,21['  ]| put an end$0$ to$4$ all further singing. Here ceased the concert 
208:229,22['  ]| part$0$ of the evening, for$3$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
208:229,23['  ]| were the only young-lady-performers; but soon (within 
208:229,24['  ]| five minutes) the proposal of dancing ~~ originating nobody 
208:229,25['  ]| exactly knew where ~~ was so$5#1$ effectually promoted by$4$ 
208:229,26['  ]| $EM#F$Mr% and $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole, that$3$ every*thing was rapidly clearing 
208:229,27['  ]| away, to$9$ give proper space. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, capital in$4$ her 
208:229,28['  ]| country-dances, was seated, and beginning an irresistible 
208:229,29['  ]| waltz; and $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, coming up$5$ with most 
208:229,30['  ]| becoming gallantry to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, had secured her hand$0$, and 
208:229,31['  ]| led her up$5$ to$4$ the top. 
208:229,32['  ]| While$4$ waiting till the other young people could pair$1$ 
208:229,33['  ]| themselves off, $EM#A$Emma found time, in$4$ spite$8$ of the compliments 
208:229,34['  ]| she was receiving on$4$ her voice and her taste, to$9$ 
208:229,35['  ]| look$1$ about$5$, and see what became of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
208:229,35@a   | This 
208:229,36@a   | would be a trial. He was no$2$ dancer in$4$ general$0$. If he 
208:229,37@a   | were to$9$ be very alert$2$ in$4$ engaging $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax now, it 
208:229,38@a   | might augur something. There was no$2$ immediate 
208:230,01@a   | appearance. No$7$; he was talking to$4$ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole ~~ he was 
208:230,02@a   | looking on$5$ unconcerned; $EM#J$Jane was asked by$4$ somebody 
208:230,03@a   | else, and he was still$5$ talking to$4$ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole. 
208:230,04['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had no$2$ longer an alarm$0$ for$4$ $EM#L1$Henry; his interest$0$ 
208:230,05['  ]| was yet safe; and she led off the dance$0$ with genuine 
208:230,06['  ]| spirit and enjoyment. Not more than five couple could 
208:230,07['  ]| be mustered; but the rarity and the suddenness of it 
208:230,08['  ]| made it very delightful, and she found herself well$5$ matched 
208:230,09['  ]| in$4$ a partner. They were a couple worth looking at. 
208:230,10['  ]| Two dances$0$, unfortunately, were all that$6#1$ could be 
208:230,11['  ]| allowed. It was growing late, and $EM#D$Miss*Bates became 
208:230,12['  ]| anxious to$9$ get home, on$4$ her mother's account$0$. After$4$ 
208:230,13['  ]| some attempts, therefore, to$9$ be permitted to$9$ begin again, 
208:230,14['  ]| they were obliged to$9$ thank $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, look$1$ sorrowful, 
208:230,15['  ]| and have done. 
208:230,16[E  ]| "Perhaps it is as well$5$," 
208:230,16['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, as he 
208:230,17['  ]| attended $EM#A$Emma to$4$ her carriage. 
208:230,17[E  ]| "I must have asked 
208:230,18[E  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, and her languid dancing would not have 
208:230,19[E  ]| agreed with me, after$4$ your's." 
209:231,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma did not repent her condescension in$4$ going to$4$ the 
209:231,02['  ]| $EM#F1$Coles. The visit$0$ afforded her many pleasant recollections 
209:231,03['  ]| the next day; and all that$6#1$ she might be supposed to$9$ 
209:231,04['  ]| have lost on$4$ the side$0$ of dignified seclusion, must be amply 
209:231,05['  ]| repaid in$4$ the splendour of popularity. 
209:231,05@a   | She must have 
209:231,06@a   | delighted the $EM#F1$Coles ~~ worthy people, who$6#1$ deserved to$9$ be 
209:231,07@a   | made happy! ~~ And left a name$0$ behind her that$6#1$ would 
209:231,08@a   | not soon die$1$ away. 
209:231,09['  ]| Perfect$2$ happiness, even$5$ in$4$ memory, is not common$2$; 
209:231,10['  ]| and there were two points on$4$ which$6#1$ she was not quite easy. 
209:231,11['  ]| She doubted whether she had not transgressed the duty of 
209:231,12['  ]| woman by$4$ woman, in$4$ betraying her suspicions of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's 
209:231,13['  ]| feelings to$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. 
209:231,13@a   | It was hardly right$2#1$; 
209:231,14@a   | but it had been so$5#1$ strong an idea, that$3$ it would escape$1$ her, 
209:231,15@a   | and his submission to$4$ all that$6#1$ she told, was a compliment$0$ 
209:231,16@a   | to$4$ her penetration which$6#1$ made it difficult for$4$ her to$9$ be 
209:231,17@a   | quite certain that$3$ she ought to$9$ have held her tongue. 
209:231,18['  ]| The other circumstance of regret$0$ related also to$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax; 
209:231,19['  ]| and there she had no$2$ doubt$0$. She did unfeignedly 
209:231,20['  ]| and unequivocally regret$1$ the inferiority of her 
209:231,21['  ]| own$2$ playing and singing. She did most heartily grieve 
209:231,22['  ]| over the idleness of her childhood ~~ and sat down$5$ and 
209:231,23['  ]| practised vigorously an hour and a half. 
209:231,24['  ]| She was then interrupted by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's coming in$5$; and 
209:231,25['  ]| if $EM#M$Harriet's praise$0$ could have satisfied her, she might soon 
209:231,26['  ]| have been comforted. 
209:231,27[M  ]| "Oh! if I could but play$1$ as well$5$ as you and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax!" 
209:231,28[M  ]| 
209:231,29[A  ]| "Don't class$1$ us together, $EM#M$Harriet. My playing is no$2$ 
209:231,30[A  ]| more like$4$ her's, than a lamp is like$4$ sunshine." 
209:231,31[M  ]| "Oh! dear$7$ ~~ I think you play$1$ the best of the two. I 
209:231,32[M  ]| think you play$1$ quite as well$5$ as she does. I am sure I had 
209:232,01[M  ]| much rather hear you. Every*body last$2$ night said how 
209:232,02[M  ]| well$5$ you played." 
209:232,03[A  ]| "Those who$6#1$ knew any*thing about$4$ it, must have felt 
209:232,04[A  ]| the difference. The truth is, $EM#M$Harriet, that$3$ my playing is 
209:232,05[A  ]| just$5$ good enough to$9$ be praised, but $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's is much 
209:232,06[A  ]| beyond$4$ it." 
209:232,07[M  ]| "Well$7$, I always shall think that$3$ you play$1$ quite as well$5$ 
209:232,08[M  ]| as she does, or that$3$ if there is any difference nobody would 
209:232,09[M  ]| ever find it out$5$. $EM#F$Mr%*Cole said how much taste you had; 
209:232,10[M  ]| and $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill talked a great deal$0$ about$4$ your 
209:232,11[M  ]| taste, and that$3$ he valued taste much more than execution." 
209:232,12[A  ]| "Ah! but $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax has them both, $EM#M$Harriet." 
209:232,13[M  ]| "Are you sure? I saw she had execution, but I did 
209:232,14[M  ]| not know she had any taste. Nobody talked about$4$ it. 
209:232,15[M  ]| And I hate Italian singing. ~~ There is no$2$ understanding a 
209:232,16[M  ]| word of it. Besides, if she does play$1$ so$5#1$ very well$5$, you 
209:232,17[M  ]| know, it is no$2$ more than she is obliged to$9$ do, because she 
209:232,18[M  ]| will$1$ have to$9$ teach. The $EM#ZE5$Coxes were wondering last$2$ night 
209:232,19[M  ]| whether she would get into any great family. How did 
209:232,20[M  ]| you think the $EM#ZE5$Coxes looked?" 
209:232,21[A  ]| "Just$5$ as they always do ~~ very vulgar." 
209:232,22[M  ]| "They told me something," 
209:232,22['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet rather hesitatingly, 
209:232,23[M  ]| "but it is nothing of any consequence." 
209:232,24['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was obliged to$9$ ask what they had told her, 
209:232,25['  ]| though fearful of its producing $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. 
209:232,26[M  ]| "They told me ~~ that$3$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin dined with them last$2$ 
209:232,27[M  ]| Saturday." 
209:232,28[A  ]| "Oh!" 
209:232,29[M  ]| "He came to$4$ their father upon$4$ some business, and he 
209:232,30[M  ]| asked him to$9$ stay$1$ dinner." 
209:232,31[A  ]| "Oh!" 
209:232,32[M  ]| "They talked a great deal$0$ about$4$ him, especially $EM#ZE2$Anne*Cox 
209:232,33[M  ]| I do not know what she meant, but she asked me 
209:232,34[M  ]| if I thought$1$ I should go and stay$1$ there again next 
209:232,35[M  ]| summer." 
209:232,36[A  ]| "She meant to$9$ be impertinently curious, just$5$ as such 
209:232,37[A  ]| an $EM#ZE2$Anne*Cox should be." 
209:232,38[M  ]| "She said he was very agreeable the day he dined there. 
209:233,01[M  ]| He sat by$4$ her at dinner. $EM#V$Miss*Nash thinks either of the 
209:233,02[M  ]| $EM#ZE5$Coxes would be very glad to$9$ marry him." 
209:233,03[A  ]| "Very likely. ~~ I think they are, without exception, the 
209:233,04[A  ]| most vulgar girls in$4$ Highbury." 
209:233,05['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet had business at $EM#Q1$Ford's. ~~ $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ it 
209:233,06['  ]| most prudent to$9$ go with her. Another accidental meeting 
209:233,07['  ]| with the $EM#R1$Martins was possible, and, in$4$ her present$2$ state$0$, 
209:233,08['  ]| would be dangerous. 
209:233,09['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, tempted by$4$ every*thing and swayed by$4$ half a 
209:233,10['  ]| word, was always very long at a purchase$0$; and while$3$ she 
209:233,11['  ]| was still$5$ hanging over muslins and changing her mind$0$, 
209:233,12['  ]| $EM#A$Emma went to$4$ the door for$4$ amusement. ~~ 
209:233,12@a   | Much could not 
209:233,13@a   | be hoped from the traffic of even$5$ the busiest part$0$ of Highbury; ~~ 
209:233,14@a   | $EM#W$Mr%*Perry walking hastily by$5$, $EM#ZE1$Mr%*William*Cox 
209:233,15@a   | letting himself in$4$ at the office door, $EM#F$Mr%*Cole's carriage 
209:233,16@a   | horses returning from exercise$0$, or a stray letter-boy on$4$ an 
209:233,17@a   | obstinate mule, were the liveliest objects$0$ she could presume 
209:233,18@a   | to$9$ expect; and when her eyes fell only on$4$ the 
209:233,19@a   | butcher with his tray, a tidy old woman travelling homewards 
209:233,20@a   | from shop with her full basket, two curs quarrelling 
209:233,21@a   | over a dirty bone, and a string of dawdling children round$4$ 
209:233,22@a   | the baker's little bow-window eyeing the gingerbread, she 
209:233,23@a   | knew she had no$2$ reason$0$ to$9$ complain, and was amused 
209:233,24@a   | enough; quite enough still$5$ to$9$ stand$1$ at the door. 
209:233,24['  ]| A mind$0$ 
209:233,25['  ]| lively and at ease$0$, can do with seeing nothing, and can see 
209:233,26['  ]| nothing that$6#1$ does not answer$1$. 
209:233,27['  ]| She looked down$4$ the Randalls road. The scene enlarged; 
209:233,28@a   | two persons appeared; $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and her 
209:233,29@a   | son-in-law; they were walking into Highbury; ~~ to$4$ 
209:233,30@a   | Hartfield of course$8$. They were stopping, however, in$4$ the 
209:233,31@a   | first place$0$ at $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's; whose$6#1$ house was a little 
209:233,32@a   | nearer Randalls than $EM#Q1$Ford's; and had all but knocked, 
209:233,33['  ]| when $EM#A$Emma caught their eye. ~~ 
209:233,33['  ]| Immediately they crossed 
209:233,34['  ]| the road and came forward$5$ to$4$ her; and the agreeableness 
209:233,35['  ]| of yesterday's engagement seemed to$9$ give fresh pleasure 
209:233,36['  ]| to$4$ the present$2$ meeting. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston informed her that$3$ 
209:233,37['  ]| she was going to$9$ call$1$ on$4$ the $EM#C1$Bateses, in$4$ order to$9$ hear the 
209:233,38['  ]| new instrument. 
209:234,01[O  ]| "For$3$ my companion tells me," 
209:234,01['  ]| said she, 
209:234,01[O  ]| "that$3$ I absolutely 
209:234,02[O  ]| promised $EM#D$Miss*Bates last$2$ night, that$3$ I would come 
209:234,03[O  ]| this morning. I was not aware of it myself. I did not 
209:234,04[O  ]| know that$3$ I had fixed a day, but as he says I did, I am 
209:234,05[O  ]| going now." 
209:234,06[E  ]| "And while$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston pays her visit$0$, I may$1$ be 
209:234,07[E  ]| allowed, I hope$1$," 
209:234,07['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
209:234,07[E  ]| "to$9$ join your 
209:234,08[E  ]| party and wait for$4$ her at Hartfield ~~ if you are going 
209:234,09[E  ]| home." 
209:234,10['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was disappointed. 
209:234,11[O  ]| "I thought$1$ you meant to$9$ go with me. They would be 
209:234,12[O  ]| very much pleased." 
209:234,13[E  ]| "Me! I should be quite in$4$ the way. But, perhaps ~~ 
209:234,14[E  ]| I may$1$ be equally in$4$ the way here. $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse looks$1$ 
209:234,15[E  ]| as if she did not want$1$ me. My aunt always sends me off 
209:234,16[E  ]| when she is shopping. She says I fidget her to$4$ death; 
209:234,17[E  ]| and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse looks$1$ as if she could almost say the 
209:234,18[E  ]| same. What am I to$9$ do?" 
209:234,19[A  ]| "I am here on$4$ no$2$ business of my own$2$," 
209:234,19['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
209:234,20[A  ]| "I am only waiting for$4$ my friend. She will$1$ probably 
209:234,21[A  ]| have soon done, and then we shall go home. But you had 
209:234,22[A  ]| better go with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and hear the instrument." 
209:234,23[E  ]| "Well$7$ ~~ if you advise it. ~~ But 
209:234,23['  ]| (with a smile$0$) 
209:234,23[E  ]| if $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell 
209:234,24[E  ]| should have employed a careless friend, and if 
209:234,25[E  ]| it should prove to$9$ have an indifferent tone ~~ what shall I 
209:234,26[E  ]| say? I shall be no$2$ support$0$ to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. She might 
209:234,27[E  ]| do very well$5$ by$4$ herself. A disagreeable truth would be 
209:234,28[E  ]| palateable through$4$ her lips, but I am the wretchedest 
209:234,29[E  ]| being$0$ in$4$ the world at a civil falsehood." 
209:234,30[A  ]| "I do not believe any such thing," 
209:234,30['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma. ~~ 
209:234,31[A  ]| "I am persuaded that$3$ you can be as insincere as your 
209:234,32[A  ]| neighbours, when it is necessary; but there is no$2$ reason$0$ 
209:234,33[A  ]| to$9$ suppose the instrument is indifferent. Quite otherwise 
209:234,34[A  ]| indeed, if I understood $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's opinion last$2$ night." 
209:234,35[O  ]| "Do come with me," 
209:234,35['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
209:234,35[O  ]| "if it be not 
209:234,36[O  ]| very disagreeable to$4$ you. It need$1$ not detain us long. We 
209:234,37[O  ]| will$1$ go to$4$ Hartfield afterwards. We will$1$ follow them to$4$ 
209:234,38[O  ]| Hartfield. I really wish$1$ you to$9$ call$1$ with me. It will$1$ be 
209:235,01[O  ]| felt so$5#1$ great an attention! and I always thought$1$ you 
209:235,02[O  ]| meant it." 
209:235,03@a   | He could say no$2$ more; and with the hope$0$ of Hartfield 
209:235,04@a   | to$9$ reward$1$ him, returned with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's 
209:235,05@a   | door. 
209:235,05['  ]| $EM#A$Emma watched them in$5$, and then joined $EM#M$Harriet 
209:235,06['  ]| at the interesting counter, ~~ trying, with all the force$0$ of 
209:235,07['  ]| her own$2$ mind$0$, to$9$ convince her that$3$ 
209:235,07@a   | if she wanted plain 
209:235,08@a   | muslin it was of no$2$ use$0$ to$9$ look$1$ at figured; and that$3$ a 
209:235,09@a   | blue ribbon, be it ever so$5#1$ beautiful, would still$5$ never 
209:235,10@a   | match$1$ her yellow pattern. 
209:235,10['  ]| At last$0$ it was all settled, even$5$ 
209:235,11['  ]| to$4$ the destination of the parcel. 
209:235,12[Q  ]| "Should I send it to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, ma'am?" 
209:235,12['  ]| asked 
209:235,13['  ]| $EM#Q$Mrs%*Ford. 
209:235,13[M  ]| "Yes ~~ no$7$ ~~ yes, to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's. Only 
209:235,14[M  ]| my pattern gown is at Hartfield. No$7$, you shall send it to$4$ 
209:235,15[M  ]| Hartfield, if you please. But then, $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard will$1$ 
209:235,16[M  ]| want$1$ to$9$ see it. ~~ And I could take the pattern gown home 
209:235,17[M  ]| any day. But I shall want$1$ the ribbon directly ~~ so$3$ it had 
209:235,18[M  ]| better go to$4$ Hartfield ~~ at least the ribbon. You could 
209:235,19[M  ]| make$1$ it into two parcels, $EM#Q$Mrs%*Ford, could not you?" 
209:235,20[A  ]| "It is not worth*while, $EM#M$Harriet, to$9$ give $EM#Q$Mrs%*Ford the 
209:235,21[A  ]| trouble$0$ of two parcels." 
209:235,22[M  ]| "No$2$ more it is." 
209:235,23[Q  ]| "No$2$ trouble$0$ in$4$ the world, ma'am," 
209:235,23['  ]| said the obliging 
209:235,24['  ]| $EM#Q$Mrs%*Ford. 
209:235,25[M  ]| "Oh! but indeed I would much rather have it only in$4$ 
209:235,26[M  ]| one. Then, if you please, you shall send it all to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's ~~ 
209:235,27[M  ]| I do not know ~~ No$7$, I think, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
209:235,28[M  ]| I may$1$ just$5$ as well$5$ have it sent to$4$ Hartfield, and take it 
209:235,29[M  ]| home with me at night. What do you advise?" 
209:235,30[A  ]| "That$3$ you do not give another half-second to$4$ the 
209:235,31[A  ]| subject$0$. To$4$ Hartfield, if you please, $EM#Q$Mrs%*Ford." 
209:235,32[M  ]| "Aye, that$6#2$ will$1$ be much best," 
209:235,32['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet, quite 
209:235,33['  ]| satisfied, 
209:235,33[M  ]| "I should not at all like$1$ to$9$ have it sent to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's." 
209:235,34[M  ]| 
209:235,35['  ]| Voices approached the shop ~~ or rather one voice and 
209:235,36['  ]| two ladies; $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and $EM#D$Miss*Bates met them at 
209:235,37['  ]| the door. 
209:235,38[D  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
209:235,38['  ]| said the latter, 
209:235,38[D  ]| "I am 
209:236,01[D  ]| just$5$ run$1$ across$5$ to$9$ entreat the favour$0$ of you to$9$ come and 
209:236,02[D  ]| sit down$5$ with us a little while$0$, and give us your opinion 
209:236,03[D  ]| of our new instrument; you and $EM#M$Miss*Smith. How do 
209:236,04[D  ]| you do, $EM#M$Miss*Smith? ~~ Very well$5$ I thank you. ~~ And I 
209:236,05[D  ]| begged $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$9$ come with me, that$3$ I might be 
209:236,06[D  ]| sure of succeeding." 
209:236,07[A  ]| "I hope$1$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax are" ~~ 
209:236,08[D  ]| "Very well$5$, I am much obliged to$4$ you. My mother is 
209:236,09[D  ]| delightfully well$5$; and $EM#J$Jane caught no$2$ cold$0$ last$2$ night. 
209:236,10[D  ]| How is $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse? ~~ I am so$5#1$ glad to$9$ hear such a good 
209:236,11[D  ]| account$0$. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston told me you were here. ~~ Oh! then, 
209:236,12[D  ]| said I, I must run$1$ across$5$, I am sure $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse will$1$ 
209:236,13[D  ]| allow me just$5$ to$9$ run$1$ across$5$ and entreat her to$9$ come in$5$; 
209:236,14[D  ]| my mother will$1$ be so$5#1$ very happy to$9$ see her ~~ and now we 
209:236,15[D  ]| are such a nice party, she cannot refuse. 
209:236,15@e   | ""Aye, pray do,"" 
209:236,16[D  ]| said $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, 
209:236,16@e   | ""$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's opinion of 
209:236,17@e   | the instrument will$1$ be worth having."" ~~ 
209:236,17[D  ]| But, said I, I shall 
209:236,18[D  ]| be more sure of succeeding if one of you will$1$ go with me. 
209:236,19@e   | ~~ ""Oh!"" 
209:236,19[D  ]| said he, 
209:236,19@e   | ""wait half-a-minute till I have finished 
209:236,20[E  ]| my job."" ~~ 
209:236,20[D  ]| For$3$, would you believe it, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
209:236,21[D  ]| there he is, in$4$ the most obliging manner in$4$ the world, 
209:236,22[D  ]| fastening in$5$ the rivet of my mother's spectacles. ~~ The 
209:236,23[D  ]| rivet came out$5$, you know, this morning. ~~ So$5#1$ very obliging! 
209:236,24[D  ]| ~~ For$3$ my mother had no$2$ use$0$ of her spectacles ~~ could 
209:236,25[D  ]| not put them on$5$. And, by*the*bye, every*body ought to$9$ 
209:236,26[D  ]| have two pair$0$ of spectacles; they should indeed. $EM#J$Jane 
209:236,27[D  ]| said so$5#2$. I meant to$9$ take them over to$4$ $EM#ZZM$John*Saunders the 
209:236,28[D  ]| first thing I did, but something or other hindered me all 
209:236,29[D  ]| the morning; first one thing, then another, there is no$2$ 
209:236,30[D  ]| saying what, you know. At one time $EM#V$Patty came to$9$ say 
209:236,31[D  ]| she thought$1$ the kitchen chimney wanted sweeping. Oh! 
209:236,32[D  ]| said I, $EM#V$Patty do not come with your bad news to$4$ me. 
209:236,33[D  ]| Here is the rivet of your mistress's spectacles out$5$. Then 
209:236,34[D  ]| the baked apples came home, $EM#ZN$Mrs%*Wallis sent them by$4$ 
209:236,35[D  ]| her boy; they are extremely civil and obliging to$4$ us, the 
209:236,36[D  ]| $EM#ZN1$Wallises, always ~~ I have heard some people say that$3$ 
209:236,37[D  ]| $EM#ZN$Mrs%*Wallis can be uncivil and give a very rude answer$0$, 
209:236,38[D  ]| but we have never known any*thing but the greatest 
209:237,01[D  ]| attention from them. And it cannot be for$4$ the value$0$ of 
209:237,02[D  ]| our custom now, for$3$ what is our consumption of bread, 
209:237,03[D  ]| you know? Only three of us ~~ besides dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane at 
209:237,04[D  ]| present$0#1$ ~~ and she really eats nothing ~~ makes such a 
209:237,05[D  ]| shocking breakfast$0$, you would be quite frightened if you 
209:237,06[D  ]| saw it. I dare$1#2$ not let my mother know how little she 
209:237,07[D  ]| eats ~~ so$3$ I say one thing and then I say another, and it 
209:237,08[D  ]| passes off. But about$4$ the middle of the day she gets 
209:237,09[D  ]| hungry, and there is nothing she likes so$5#1$ well$5$ as these 
209:237,10[D  ]| baked apples, and they are extremely wholesome, for$3$ I 
209:237,11[D  ]| took the opportunity the other day of asking $EM#W$Mr%*Perry; 
209:237,12[D  ]| I happened to$9$ meet$1$ him in$4$ the street. Not that$3$ I had any 
209:237,13[D  ]| doubt$0$ before$5$ ~~ I have so$5#1$ often heard $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse recommend 
209:237,14[D  ]| a baked apple. I believe it is the only way that$3$ 
209:237,15[D  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse thinks the fruit thoroughly wholesome. 
209:237,16[D  ]| We have apple*dumplings, however, very often. $EM#V$Patty 
209:237,17[D  ]| makes an excellent apple-dumpling. Well$7$, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
209:237,18[D  ]| you have prevailed, I hope$1$, and these ladies will$1$ oblige us." 
209:237,19['  ]| $EM#A$Emma would be 
209:237,19@a   | "very happy to$9$ wait on$5$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, 
209:237,20@a   | &c%" 
209:237,20['  ]| and they did at last$0$ move$1$ out$5$ of the shop, with no$2$ 
209:237,21['  ]| further delay$0$ from $EM#D$Miss*Bates than, 
209:237,22[D  ]| "How do you do, $EM#Q$Mrs%*Ford? I beg your pardon$0$. I 
209:237,23[D  ]| did not see you before$5$. I hear you have a charming 
209:237,24[D  ]| collection of new ribbons from town. $EM#J$Jane came back$5$ 
209:237,25[D  ]| delighted yesterday. Thank ye, the gloves do very well$5$ 
209:237,26[D  ]| ~~ only a little too$5#1$ large about$4$ the wrist; but $EM#J$Jane is 
209:237,27[D  ]| taking them in$5$." 
209:237,28[D  ]| "What was I talking of?" 
209:237,28['  ]| said she, beginning again 
209:237,29['  ]| when they were all in$4$ the street. 
209:237,30['  ]| $EM#A$Emma wondered on$4$ what, of all the medley, she would 
209:237,31['  ]| fix. 
209:237,32[D  ]| "I declare I cannot recollect what I was talking of. ~~ 
209:237,33[D  ]| Oh! my mother's spectacles. So$5#1$ very obliging of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill! 
209:237,34@e   | ""Oh!"" 
209:237,34[D  ]| said he, 
209:237,34@e   | ""I do think I can 
209:237,35@e   | fasten the rivet; I like$1$ a job of this kind$0$ excessively. ~~"" 
209:237,36[D  ]| Which$6#1$ you know shewed him to$9$ be so$5#1$ very ~~ Indeed 
209:237,37[D  ]| I must say that$3$, much as I had heard of him before$5$ and 
209:237,38[D  ]| much as I had expected, he very far exceeds any*thing ~~ 
209:238,01[D  ]| I do congratulate you, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, most warmly. He 
209:238,02[D  ]| seems every*thing the fondest parent could ~~ 
209:238,02@e   | ""Oh!"", 
209:238,03[D  ]| said he, 
209:238,03@e   | ""I can fasten the rivet. I like$1$ a job of that$6#2$ sort 
209:238,04@e   | excessively."" 
209:238,04[D  ]| I never shall forget his manner. And when 
209:238,05[D  ]| I brought out$5$ the baked apples from the closet, and hoped 
209:238,06[D  ]| our friends would be so$5#1$ very obliging as to$9$ take some, 
209:238,07@e   | ""Oh!"" 
209:238,07[D  ]| said he, directly, 
209:238,07@e   | ""there is nothing in$4$ the way of 
209:238,08@e   | fruit half so$5#1$ good, and these are the finest looking home-baked 
209:238,09@e   | apples I ever saw in$4$ my life."" 
209:238,09[D  ]| That$6#2$, you know, was 
209:238,10[D  ]| so$5#1$ very ~~ And I am sure, by$4$ his manner, it was no$2$ 
209:238,11[D  ]| compliment$0$. Indeed they are very delightful apples, and 
209:238,12[D  ]| $EM#ZN$Mrs%*Wallis does them full justice ~~ only we do not have 
209:238,13[D  ]| them baked more than twice, and $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse made 
209:238,14[D  ]| us promise$1$ to$9$ have them done three times ~~ but $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
209:238,15[D  ]| will$1$ be so$5#1$ good as not to$9$ mention$1$ it. The 
209:238,16[D  ]| apples themselves are the very finest sort for$4$ baking, 
209:238,17[D  ]| beyond$4$ a doubt$0$; all from Donwell ~~ some of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
209:238,18[D  ]| most liberal supply$0$. He sends us a sack every year; 
209:238,19[D  ]| and certainly there never was such a keeping apple any*where 
209:238,20[D  ]| as one of his trees ~~ I believe there is two of them. 
209:238,21[D  ]| My mother says the orchard was always famous in$4$ her 
209:238,22[D  ]| younger days. But I was really quite shocked the other 
209:238,23[D  ]| day ~~ for$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley called one morning, and $EM#J$Jane was 
209:238,24[D  ]| eating these apples, and we talked about$4$ them and said 
209:238,25[D  ]| how much she enjoyed them, and he asked whether we 
209:238,26[D  ]| were not got to$4$ the end$0$ of our stock. 
209:238,26@b   | ""I am sure you 
209:238,27@b   | must be,"" 
209:238,27[D  ]| said he, 
209:238,27@b   | ""and I will$1$ send you another supply$0$; 
209:238,28@b   | for$3$ I have a great many more than I can ever use$1$. $EM#W$William*Larkins 
209:238,29@b   | let me keep a larger quantity than usual this 
209:238,30@b   | year. I will$1$ send you some more, before$3$ they get good for$4$ 
209:238,31@b   | nothing."" 
209:238,31[D  ]| So$3$ I begged he would not ~~ for$3$ really as to$4$ ours 
209:238,32[D  ]| being$1$ gone, I could not absolutely say that$3$ we had a great 
209:238,33[D  ]| many left ~~ it was but half a dozen indeed; but they 
209:238,34[D  ]| should be all kept for$4$ $EM#J$Jane; and I could not at all bear$1$ 
209:238,35[D  ]| that$3$ he should be sending us more, so$5#1$ liberal as he had 
209:238,36[D  ]| been already; and $EM#J$Jane said the same. And when he 
209:238,37[D  ]| was gone, she almost quarrelled with me ~~ No$7$, I should not 
209:238,38[D  ]| say quarrelled, for$3$ we never had a quarrel$0$ in$4$ our lives$0$; 
209:239,01[D  ]| but she was quite distressed that$3$ I had owned the apples 
209:239,02[D  ]| were so$5#1$ nearly gone; she wished I had made him believe 
209:239,03[D  ]| we had a great many left. Oh! said I, my dear$2#1$, I did 
209:239,04[D  ]| say as much as I could. However, the very same evening 
209:239,05[D  ]| $EM#W$William*Larkins came over with a large basket of apples, 
209:239,06[D  ]| the same sort of apples, a bushel at least, and I was very 
209:239,07[D  ]| much obliged, and went down$5$ and spoke to$4$ $EM#W$William*Larkins 
209:239,08[D  ]| and said every*thing, as you may$1$ suppose. 
209:239,09[D  ]| $EM#W$William*Larkins is such an old acquaintance! I am always 
209:239,10[D  ]| glad to$9$ see him. But, however, I found afterwards from 
209:239,11[D  ]| $EM#V$Patty, that$3$ $EM#W$William said it was all the apples of \that$6#2$\ sort 
209:239,12[D  ]| his master had; he had brought them all ~~ and now his 
209:239,13[D  ]| master had not one left to$9$ bake or boil. $EM#W$William did not 
209:239,14[D  ]| seem to$9$ mind$1$ it himself, he was so$5#1$ pleased to$9$ think his 
209:239,15[D  ]| master had sold so$5#1$ many; for$3$ $EM#W$William, you know, thinks 
209:239,16[D  ]| more of his master's profit than any*thing; but $EM#ZZI$Mrs%*Hodges, 
209:239,17[D  ]| he said, was quite displeased at their being$1$ all 
209:239,18[D  ]| sent away. She could not bear$1$ that$3$ her master should 
209:239,19[D  ]| not be able to$9$ have another apple-tart this spring$0$. He 
209:239,20[D  ]| told $EM#V$Patty this, but bid her not mind$1$ it, and be sure not 
209:239,21[D  ]| to$9$ say any*thing to$4$ us about$4$ it, for$3$ $EM#ZZI$Mrs%*Hodges \would\ be 
209:239,22[D  ]| cross$2$ sometimes, and as long as so$5#1$ many sacks were sold, 
209:239,23[D  ]| it did not signify who$6#1$ ate the remainder. And so$3$ $EM#V$Patty 
209:239,24[D  ]| told me, and I was excessively shocked indeed! I would 
209:239,25[D  ]| not have $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley know any*thing about$4$ it for$4$ the 
209:239,26[D  ]| world! He would be so$5#1$ very ~~ I wanted to$9$ keep it from 
209:239,27[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane's knowledge; but unluckily, I had mentioned it 
209:239,28[D  ]| before$3$ I was aware." 
209:239,29['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates had just$5$ done as $EM#V$Patty opened the door; 
209:239,30['  ]| and her visitors walked up*stairs without having any 
209:239,31['  ]| regular narration to$9$ attend to$4$, pursued only by$4$ the sounds$0$ 
209:239,32['  ]| of her desultory good-will. 
209:239,33[D  ]| "Pray take care$0$, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, there is a step$0$ at the 
209:239,34[D  ]| turning. Pray take care$0$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, ours is rather 
209:239,35[D  ]| a dark$2$ staircase ~~ rather darker and narrower than one 
209:239,36[D  ]| could wish$1$. $EM#M$Miss*Smith, pray take care$0$. $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
209:239,37[D  ]| I am quite concerned, I am sure you hit your foot. $EM#M$Miss*Smith, 
209:239,38[D  ]| the step$0$ at the turning." 
210:240,01['  ]| The appearance of the little sitting-room as they 
210:240,02['  ]| entered, was tranquillity itself; $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, deprived of 
210:240,03['  ]| her usual employment, slumbering on$4$ one side$0$ of the fire$0$, 
210:240,04['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, at a table near$4$ her, most deedily occupied 
210:240,05['  ]| about$4$ her spectacles, and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, standing with her 
210:240,06['  ]| back$0$ to$4$ them, intent on$4$ her pianoforte=. 
210:240,07['  ]| Busy as he was, however, the young man was yet able 
210:240,08['  ]| to$9$ shew$1$ a most happy countenance on$4$ seeing $EM#A$Emma 
210:240,09['  ]| again. 
210:240,10[E  ]| "This is a pleasure," 
210:240,10['  ]| said he, in$4$ rather a low voice, 
210:240,11[E  ]| "coming at least ten minutes earlier than I had calculated. 
210:240,12[E  ]| You find me trying to$9$ be useful; tell me if you think I 
210:240,13[E  ]| shall succeed." 
210:240,14[O  ]| "What!" 
210:240,14['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
210:240,14[O  ]| "have not you finished 
210:240,15[O  ]| it yet? you would not earn a very good livelihood as a 
210:240,16[O  ]| working-silversmith at this rate$0$." 
210:240,17[E  ]| "I have not been working uninterruptedly," 
210:240,17['  ]| he replied, 
210:240,18[E  ]| "I have been assisting $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax in$4$ trying to$9$ make$1$ her 
210:240,19[E  ]| instrument stand$1$ steadily, it was not quite firm; an unevenness 
210:240,20[E  ]| in$4$ the floor, I believe. You see we have been 
210:240,21[E  ]| wedging one leg with paper. This was very kind$2$ of you 
210:240,22[E  ]| to$9$ be persuaded to$9$ come. I was almost afraid you would 
210:240,23[E  ]| be hurrying home." 
210:240,24['  ]| He contrived that$3$ she should be seated by$4$ him; and 
210:240,25['  ]| was sufficiently employed in$4$ looking out$5$ the best baked 
210:240,26['  ]| apple for$4$ her, and trying to$9$ make$1$ her help$1$ or advise him 
210:240,27['  ]| in$4$ his work$0$, till $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax was quite ready to$9$ sit down$5$ 
210:240,28['  ]| to$4$ the pianoforte= again. That$3$ she was not immediately 
210:240,29['  ]| ready, $EM#A$Emma did suspect 
210:240,29@a   | to$9$ arise from the state$0$ of her 
210:240,30@a   | nerves; she had not yet possessed the instrument long 
210:240,31@a   | enough to$9$ touch$1$ it without emotion; she must reason$1$ 
210:240,32@a   | herself into the power of performance; and $EM#A$Emma could 
210:240,33@a   | not but pity$1$ such feelings, whatever their origin, and could 
210:241,01@a   | not but resolve$1$ never to$9$ expose them to$4$ her neighbour 
210:241,02@a   | again. 
210:241,03['  ]| At last$0$ $EM#J$Jane began, and though the first bars were 
210:241,04['  ]| feebly given, the powers of the instrument were gradually 
210:241,05['  ]| done full justice to$5$. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had been delighted 
210:241,06['  ]| before$5$, and was delighted again; $EM#A$Emma joined her in$4$ 
210:241,07['  ]| all her praise$0$; and the pianoforte=, with every proper 
210:241,08['  ]| discrimination, was pronounced to$9$ be altogether of the 
210:241,09['  ]| highest promise$0$. 
210:241,10[E  ]| "Whoever $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell might employ," 
210:241,10['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
210:241,11['  ]| with a smile$0$ at $EM#A$Emma, 
210:241,11[E  ]| "the person has not 
210:241,12[E  ]| chosen ill. I heard a good deal$0$ of $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell's taste 
210:241,13[E  ]| at Weymouth; and the softness of the upper notes 
210:241,14[E  ]| I am sure is exactly what he and \all\ \that$6#2$\ \party\ would 
210:241,15[E  ]| particularly prize$1$. I dare$1#2$ say, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, that$3$ he 
210:241,16[E  ]| either gave his friend very minute$2$ directions, or wrote 
210:241,17[E  ]| to$4$ $EM#Z1$Broadwood himself. Do not you think so$5#2$?" 
210:241,18['  ]| $EM#J$Jane did not look$1$ round$5$. She was not obliged to$9$ hear. 
210:241,19['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had been speaking to$4$ her at the same 
210:241,20['  ]| moment. 
210:241,21[A  ]| "It is not fair," 
210:241,21['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma in$4$ a whisper$0$, 
210:241,21[A  ]| "mine$6$ was 
210:241,22[A  ]| a random guess$0$. Do not distress$1$ her." 
210:241,23['  ]| He shook his head$0$ with a smile$0$, and looked as if he 
210:241,24['  ]| had very little doubt$0$ and very little mercy. Soon afterwards 
210:241,25['  ]| he began again, 
210:241,26[E  ]| "How much your friends in$4$ Ireland must be enjoying 
210:241,27[E  ]| your pleasure on$4$ this occasion$0$, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. I dare$1#2$ say 
210:241,28[E  ]| they often think of you, and wonder$1$ which$6#1$ will$1$ be the 
210:241,29[E  ]| day, the precise day of the instrument's coming to$4$ hand$0$. 
210:241,30[E  ]| Do you imagine $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell knows the business to$9$ be 
210:241,31[E  ]| going forward$5$ just$5$ at this time? ~~ Do you imagine it to$9$ 
210:241,32[E  ]| be the consequence of an immediate commission from 
210:241,33[E  ]| him, or that$3$ he may$1$ have sent only a general$2$ direction, 
210:241,34[E  ]| an order indefinite as to$4$ time, to$9$ depend upon$4$ contingencies 
210:241,35[E  ]| and conveniences?" 
210:241,36['  ]| He paused. She could not but hear; she could not 
210:241,37['  ]| avoid answering, 
210:241,38[J  ]| "Till I have a letter from $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell," 
210:241,38['  ]| said she, in$4$ 
210:242,01['  ]| a voice of forced calmness, 
210:242,01[J  ]| "I can imagine nothing with 
210:242,02[J  ]| any confidence. It must be all conjecture$0$." 
210:242,03[E  ]| "Conjecture$0$ ~~ aye, sometimes one conjectures$1$ right$2#1$, 
210:242,04[E  ]| and sometimes one conjectures$1$ wrong. I wish$1$ I could 
210:242,05[E  ]| conjecture$1$ how soon I shall make$1$ this rivet quite firm. 
210:242,06[E  ]| What nonsense one talks, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, when hard at 
210:242,07[E  ]| work$0$, if one talks at all; ~~ your real workmen, I suppose, 
210:242,08[E  ]| hold$1$ their tongues; but we gentlemen labourers if we get 
210:242,09[E  ]| hold$0$ of a word ~~ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax said something about$4$ conjecturing. 
210:242,10[E  ]| There, it is done. I have the pleasure, madam, 
210:242,11['  ]| (to$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates) 
210:242,11[E  ]| of restoring your spectacles, healed for$4$ 
210:242,12[E  ]| the present$0#1$." 
210:242,13['  ]| He was very warmly thanked both by$4$ mother and 
210:242,14['  ]| daughter; to$9$ escape$1$ a little from the latter, he went to$4$ 
210:242,15['  ]| the pianoforte=, and begged $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, who$6#1$ was still$5$ 
210:242,16['  ]| sitting at it, to$9$ play$1$ something more. 
210:242,17[E  ]| "If you are very kind$2$," 
210:242,17['  ]| said he, 
210:242,17[E  ]| "it will$1$ be one of the 
210:242,18[E  ]| waltzes we danced last$2$ night; ~~ let me live them over 
210:242,19[E  ]| again. You did not enjoy them as I did; you appeared 
210:242,20[E  ]| tired the whole$2$ time. I believe you were glad we danced 
210:242,21[E  ]| no$2$ longer; but I would have given worlds ~~ all the worlds 
210:242,22[E  ]| one ever has to$9$ give ~~ for$4$ another half hour." 
210:242,23['  ]| She played. 
210:242,24[E  ]| "What felicity it is to$9$ hear a tune again which$6#1$ \has\ 
210:242,25[E  ]| made one happy! ~~ If I mistake$1$ not that$6#2$ was danced at 
210:242,26[E  ]| Weymouth." 
210:242,27['  ]| She looked up$5$ at him for$4$ a moment, coloured deeply, 
210:242,28['  ]| and played something else. He took some music from 
210:242,29['  ]| a chair near$4$ the pianoforte=, and turning to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, said, 
210:242,30[E  ]| "Here is something quite new to$4$ me. Do you know 
210:242,31[E  ]| it? ~~ $EM#Z1$Cramer. ~~ And here are a new set$0$ of Irish melodies. 
210:242,32[E  ]| That$6#2$, from such a quarter$0#2$, one might expect. This was 
210:242,33[E  ]| all sent with the instrument. Very thoughtful of $EM#ZC$Col%*Campbell, 
210:242,34[E  ]| was not it? ~~ He knew $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax could 
210:242,35[E  ]| have no$2$ music here. I honour$1$ that$6#2$ part$0$ of the attention 
210:242,36[E  ]| particularly; it shews it to$9$ have been so$5#1$ thoroughly from 
210:242,37[E  ]| the heart. Nothing hastily done; nothing incomplete. 
210:242,38[E  ]| True affection only could have prompted it." 
210:243,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma wished he would be less pointed, yet could not 
210:243,02['  ]| help$1$ being$1$ amused; and when on$4$ glancing her eye 
210:243,03['  ]| towards $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax she caught the remains$0$ of a smile$0$, 
210:243,04['  ]| when she saw that$3$ with all the deep blush$0$ of consciousness, 
210:243,05['  ]| there had been a smile$0$ of secret$2$ delight$0$, she had less 
210:243,06['  ]| scruple$0$ in$4$ the amusement, and much less compunction 
210:243,07['  ]| with respect$0$ to$4$ her. ~~ 
210:243,07@a   | This amiable, upright, perfect$2$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
210:243,08@a   | was apparently cherishing very reprehensible 
210:243,09@a   | feelings. 
210:243,10['  ]| He brought all the music to$4$ her, and they looked it 
210:243,11['  ]| over together. ~~ $EM#A$Emma took the opportunity of whispering, 
210:243,12['  ]| 
210:243,13[A  ]| "You speak too$5#1$ plain. She must understand you." 
210:243,14[E  ]| "I hope$1$ she does. I would have her understand me. 
210:243,15[E  ]| I am not in$4$ the least ashamed of my meaning." 
210:243,16[A  ]| "But really, I am half ashamed, and wish$1$ I had never 
210:243,17[A  ]| taken up$5$ the idea." 
210:243,18[E  ]| "I am very glad you did, and that$3$ you communicated 
210:243,19[E  ]| it to$4$ me. I have now a key to$4$ all her odd looks$0$ and ways. 
210:243,20[E  ]| Leave$1$ shame$0$ to$4$ her. If she does wrong, she ought to$9$ 
210:243,21[E  ]| feel it." 
210:243,22[A  ]| "She is not entirely without it, I think." 
210:243,23[E  ]| "I do not see much sign of it. She is playing \Robin*Adair\ 
210:243,24[E  ]| at this moment ~~ \his\ favourite$0$." 
210:243,25['  ]| Shortly afterwards $EM#D$Miss*Bates, passing near$4$ the window, 
210:243,26['  ]| descried $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley on$4$ horseback not far off. 
210:243,27[D  ]| "$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley I declare! ~~ I must speak to$4$ him if 
210:243,28[D  ]| possible, just$5$ to$9$ thank him. I will$1$ not open$1$ the window 
210:243,29[D  ]| here; it would give you all cold$0$; but I can go into my 
210:243,30[D  ]| mother's room you know. I dare$1#2$ say he will$1$ come in$5$ 
210:243,31[D  ]| when he knows who$6#1$ is here. Quite delightful to$9$ have 
210:243,32[D  ]| you all meet$1$ so$5#2$! ~~ Our little room so$5#1$ honoured!" 
210:243,33['  ]| She was in$4$ the adjoining chamber while$3$ she still$5$ spoke, 
210:243,34['  ]| and opening the casement there, immediately called 
210:243,35['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's attention, and every syllable of their 
210:243,36['  ]| conversation was as distinctly heard by$4$ the others, as if 
210:243,37['  ]| it had passed within the same apartment. 
210:243,38[D  ]| "How d'ye do? ~~ how d'ye do? ~~ Very well$5$, I thank 
210:244,01[D  ]| you. So$5#1$ obliged to$4$ you for$4$ the carriage last$2$ night. We 
210:244,02[D  ]| were just$5$ in$4$ time; my mother just$5$ ready for$4$ us. Pray 
210:244,03[D  ]| come in$5$; do come in$5$. You will$1$ find some friends here." 
210:244,04['  ]| So$5#2$ began $EM#D$Miss*Bates; and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley seemed 
210:244,05['  ]| determined to$9$ be heard in$4$ his turn$0$, for$3$ most resolutely 
210:244,06['  ]| and commandingly did he say, 
210:244,07[B  ]| "How is your niece, $EM#D$Miss*Bates? ~~ I want$1$ to$9$ inquire 
210:244,08[B  ]| after$4$ you all, but particularly your niece. How is $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax? ~~ 
210:244,09[B  ]| I hope$1$ she caught no$2$ cold$0$ last$2$ night. How is 
210:244,10[B  ]| she to-day? Tell me how $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax is." 
210:244,11['  ]| And $EM#D$Miss*Bates was obliged to$9$ give a direct$2$ answer$0$ 
210:244,12['  ]| before$3$ he would hear her in$4$ any*thing else. The listeners 
210:244,13['  ]| were amused; and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston gave $EM#A$Emma a look$0$ of 
210:244,14['  ]| particular meaning. But $EM#A$Emma still$5$ shook her head$0$ 
210:244,15['  ]| in$4$ steady scepticism. 
210:244,16[D  ]| "So$5#1$ obliged to$4$ you! ~~ so$5#1$ very much obliged to$4$ you 
210:244,17[D  ]| for$4$ the carriage," 
210:244,17['  ]| resumed $EM#D$Miss*Bates. 
210:244,18['  ]| He cut$1$ her short with, 
210:244,19[B  ]| "I am going to$4$ Kingston. Can I do any*thing for$4$ 
210:244,20[B  ]| you?" 
210:244,21[D  ]| "Oh! dear$7$, Kingston ~~ are you? ~~ $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole was saying 
210:244,22[D  ]| the other day she wanted something from Kingston." 
210:244,23[B  ]| "$EM#G$Mrs%*Cole has servants to$9$ send. Can I do any*thing 
210:244,24[B  ]| for$4$ \you\?" 
210:244,25[D  ]| "No$7$, I thank you. But do come in$5$. Who$6#2$ do you 
210:244,26[D  ]| think is here? ~~ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse and $EM#M$Miss*Smith; so$5#1$ 
210:244,27[D  ]| kind$2$ as to$9$ call$1$ to$9$ hear the new pianoforte=. Do put up$5$ 
210:244,28[D  ]| your horse at the Crown$0#1$, and come in$5$." 
210:244,29[B  ]| "Well$7$," 
210:244,29['  ]| said he in$4$ a deliberating manner, 
210:244,29[B  ]| "for$4$ five 
210:244,30[B  ]| minutes, perhaps." 
210:244,31[D  ]| "And here is $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
210:244,32[D  ]| too$5#2$! ~~ Quite delightful; so$5#1$ many friends!" 
210:244,33[B  ]| "No$7$, not now, I thank you. I could not stay$1$ two 
210:244,34[B  ]| minutes. I must get on$5$ to$4$ Kingston as fast as I can." 
210:244,35[D  ]| "Oh! do come in$5$. They will$1$ be so$5#1$ very happy to$9$ 
210:244,36[D  ]| see you." 
210:244,37[B  ]| "No$7$, no$7$, your room is full enough. I will$1$ call$1$ another 
210:244,38[B  ]| day, and hear the pianoforte=." 
210:245,01[D  ]| "Well$7$, I am so$5#1$ sorry! ~~ Oh! $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, what 
210:245,02[D  ]| a delightful party last$2$ night; how extremely pleasant. ~~ 
210:245,03[D  ]| Did you ever see such dancing? ~~ Was not it delightful? 
210:245,04[D  ]| ~~ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse and $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill; I never 
210:245,05[D  ]| saw any*thing equal$2$ to$4$ it." 
210:245,06[B  ]| "Oh! very delightful indeed; I can say nothing less, 
210:245,07[B  ]| for$3$ I suppose $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse and $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
210:245,08[B  ]| are hearing every*thing that$6#1$ passes. And 
210:245,08['  ]| (raising his 
210:245,09['  ]| voice still$5$ more) 
210:245,09[B  ]| I do not see why $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax should not 
210:245,10[B  ]| be mentioned too$5#2$. I think $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax dances$1$ very well$5$; 
210:245,11[B  ]| and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston is the very best country-dance player, 
210:245,12[B  ]| without exception, in$4$ England. Now, if your friends have 
210:245,13[B  ]| any gratitude, they will$1$ say something pretty$5$ loud about$4$ 
210:245,14[B  ]| you and me in$4$ return$0$; but I cannot stay$1$ to$9$ hear it." 
210:245,15[D  ]| "Oh! $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, one moment more; something 
210:245,16[D  ]| of consequence ~~ so$5#1$ shocked! ~~ $EM#J$Jane and I are both so$5#1$ 
210:245,17[D  ]| shocked about$4$ the apples!" 
210:245,18[B  ]| "What is the matter now?" 
210:245,19[D  ]| "To$9$ think of your sending us all your store apples. 
210:245,20[D  ]| You said you had a great many, and now you have not 
210:245,21[D  ]| one left. We really are so$5#1$ shocked! $EM#ZZI$Mrs%*Hodges may$1$ 
210:245,22[D  ]| well$5$ be angry. $EM#W$William*Larkins mentioned it here. You 
210:245,23[D  ]| should not have done it, indeed you should not. Ah! 
210:245,24[D  ]| he is off. He never can bear$1$ to$9$ be thanked. But I thought$1$ 
210:245,25[D  ]| he would have staid now, and it would have been a pity$0$ 
210:245,26[D  ]| not to$9$ have mentioned ~~ Well$7$, 
210:245,26['  ]| (returning into the 
210:245,27['  ]| room,) 
210:245,27[D  ]| I have not been able to$9$ succeed. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
210:245,28[D  ]| cannot stop$1$. He is going to$4$ Kingston. He asked me if 
210:245,29[D  ]| he could do any*thing" ~~ 
210:245,30[J  ]| "Yes," 
210:245,30['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane, 
210:245,30[J  ]| "we heard his kind$2$ offers$0$, we heard 
210:245,31[J  ]| every*thing." 
210:245,32[D  ]| "Oh! yes, my dear$2#1$, I dare$1#2$ say you might, because you 
210:245,33[D  ]| know the door was open$2$, and the window was open$2$, and 
210:245,34[D  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley spoke loud. You must have heard everything 
210:245,35[D  ]| to$9$ be sure. 
210:245,35@b   | ""Can I do any*thing for$4$ you at Kingston?"" 
210:245,36[D  ]| said he, so$3$ I just$5$ mentioned ~~ Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
210:245,37[D  ]| must you be going? ~~ You seem but just$5$ come ~~ so$5#1$ very 
210:245,38[D  ]| obliging of you." 
210:246,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma found it really time to$9$ be at home; the visit$0$ 
210:246,02['  ]| had already lasted long; and on$4$ examining watches, so$5#1$ 
210:246,03['  ]| much of the morning was perceived to$9$ be gone, that$3$ 
210:246,04['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and her companion taking leave$0$ also, could 
210:246,05['  ]| allow themselves only to$9$ walk$1$ with the two young ladies 
210:246,06['  ]| to$4$ Hartfield gates, before$3$ they set$1$ off for$4$ Randalls. 
211:247,01['  ]| It may$1$ be possible to$9$ do without dancing entirely. 
211:247,02['  ]| Instances have been known of young people passing 
211:247,03['  ]| many, many months successively, without being$1$ at any 
211:247,04['  ]| ball$0#2$ of any description, and no$2$ material$2$ injury accrue 
211:247,05['  ]| either to$4$ body or mind$0$; ~~ but when a beginning is made 
211:247,06['  ]| ~~ when the felicities of rapid motion have once been, 
211:247,07['  ]| though slightly, felt ~~ it must be a very heavy set$0$ that$6#1$ 
211:247,08['  ]| does not ask for$4$ more. 
211:247,09['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had danced once at Highbury, and 
211:247,10['  ]| longed to$9$ dance$1$ again; and the last$2$ half hour of an 
211:247,11['  ]| evening which$6#1$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was persuaded to$9$ spend 
211:247,12['  ]| with his daughter at Randalls, was passed by$4$ the two 
211:247,13['  ]| young people in$4$ schemes on$4$ the subject$0$. $EM#E$Frank's was 
211:247,14['  ]| the first idea; and his the greatest zeal in$4$ pursuing it; 
211:247,15['  ]| for$3$ the lady was the best judge$0$ of the difficulties, and the 
211:247,16['  ]| most solicitous for$4$ accommodation and appearance. But 
211:247,17['  ]| still$5$ she had inclination enough for$4$ shewing people again 
211:247,18['  ]| how delightfully $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
211:247,19['  ]| danced ~~ for$4$ doing that$6#2$ in$4$ which$6#1$ she need$1$ not blush$1$ 
211:247,20['  ]| to$9$ compare herself with $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax ~~ and even$5$ for$4$ 
211:247,21['  ]| simple$2$ dancing itself, without any of the wicked aids of 
211:247,22['  ]| vanity ~~ to$9$ assist him first in$4$ pacing out$5$ the room they 
211:247,23['  ]| were in$4$ to$9$ see what it could be made to$9$ hold$1$ ~~ and then 
211:247,24['  ]| in$4$ taking the dimensions of the other parlour, in$4$ the hope$0$ 
211:247,25['  ]| of discovering, in$4$ spite$8$ of all that$6#1$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston could say 
211:247,26['  ]| of their exactly equal$2$ size, that$3$ it was a little the largest. 
211:247,27['  ]| His first proposition and request$0$, that$3$ the dance$0$ begun 
211:247,28['  ]| at $EM#F$Mr%*Cole's should be finished there ~~ that$3$ the same 
211:247,29['  ]| party should be collected, and the same musicians engaged, 
211:247,30['  ]| met with the readiest acquiescence. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston entered 
211:247,31['  ]| into the idea with thorough enjoyment, and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
211:247,32['  ]| most willingly undertook to$9$ play$1$ as long as they could 
211:248,01['  ]| wish$1$ to$9$ dance$1$; and the interesting employment had 
211:248,02['  ]| followed, of reckoning up$5$ exactly who$6#1$ there would be, 
211:248,03['  ]| and portioning out$5$ the indispensable division of space to$4$ 
211:248,04['  ]| every couple. 
211:248,05[E  ]| "You and $EM#M$Miss*Smith, and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, will$1$ be three, 
211:248,06[E  ]| and the two $EM#ZE5$Miss*Coxes five," 
211:248,06['  ]| had been repeated many 
211:248,07['  ]| times over. 
211:248,07[E  ]| "And there will$1$ be the two $EM#ZG2$Gilberts, young 
211:248,08[E  ]| $EM#ZE3$Cox, my father, and myself, besides $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. Yes, 
211:248,09[E  ]| that$6#2$ will$1$ be quite enough for$4$ pleasure. You and $EM#M$Miss*Smith, 
211:248,10[E  ]| and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, will$1$ be three, and the two $EM#ZE5$Miss*Coxes 
211:248,11[E  ]| five; and for$4$ five couple there will$1$ be plenty of 
211:248,12[E  ]| room." 
211:248,13['  ]| But soon it came to$9$ be on$4$ one side$0$, 
211:248,14[A  ]| "But will$1$ there be good room for$4$ five couple? ~~ I really 
211:248,15[A  ]| do not think there will$1$." 
211:248,16['  ]| On$4$ another, 
211:248,17[E  ]| "And after$4$ all, five couple are not enough to$9$ make$1$ it 
211:248,18[E  ]| worth*while to$9$ stand$1$ up$5$. Five couple are nothing, when 
211:248,19[E  ]| one thinks seriously about$4$ it. It will$1$ not do to$9$ \invite\ 
211:248,20[E  ]| five couple. It can be allowable only as the thought$0$ of 
211:248,21[E  ]| the moment." 
211:248,22['  ]| Somebody said that$3$ \$EM#ZG1$Miss\*Gilbert was expected at her 
211:248,23['  ]| brother's, and must be invited with the rest$0#1$. Somebody 
211:248,24['  ]| else believed \$EM#ZG$Mrs%\*Gilbert would have danced the other 
211:248,25['  ]| evening, if she had been asked. A word was put in$5$ for$4$ 
211:248,26['  ]| a second$2$ young $EM#ZE4$Cox; and at last$0$, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston naming 
211:248,27['  ]| one family of cousins who$6#1$ must be included, and another 
211:248,28['  ]| of very old acquaintance who$6#1$ could not be left out$5$, it 
211:248,29['  ]| became a certainty that$3$ the five couple would be at least 
211:248,30['  ]| ten, and a very interesting speculation in$4$ what possible 
211:248,31['  ]| manner they could be disposed of. 
211:248,32['  ]| The doors of the two rooms were just$5$ opposite each 
211:248,33['  ]| other. 
211:248,33[E  ]| "Might not they use$1$ both rooms, and dance$1$ 
211:248,34[E  ]| across$4$ the passage?" 
211:248,34['  ]| It seemed the best scheme$0$; and 
211:248,35['  ]| yet it was not so$5#1$ good but that$3$ many of them wanted 
211:248,36['  ]| a better. $EM#A$Emma said it would be awkward; $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
211:248,37['  ]| was in$4$ distress$0$ about$4$ the supper; and $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
211:248,38['  ]| opposed it earnestly, on$4$ the score of health. It made him 
211:249,01['  ]| so$5#1$ very unhappy, indeed, that$3$ it could not be persevered 
211:249,02['  ]| in$5$. 
211:249,03[P  ]| "Oh! no$7$," 
211:249,03['  ]| said he; 
211:249,03[P  ]| "it would be the extreme$0$ of 
211:249,04[P  ]| imprudence. I could not bear$1$ it for$4$ $EM#A$Emma! ~~ $EM#A$Emma is 
211:249,05[P  ]| not strong. She would catch$1$ a dreadful cold$0$. So$3$ would 
211:249,06[P  ]| poor little $EM#M$Harriet. So$3$ you would all. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, you 
211:249,07[P  ]| would be quite laid up$5$; do not let them talk$1$ of such 
211:249,08[P  ]| a wild thing. Pray do not let them talk$1$ of it. That$6#2$ 
211:249,09[P  ]| young man 
211:249,09['  ]| (speaking lower$2$) 
211:249,09[P  ]| is very thoughtless. Do not 
211:249,10[P  ]| tell his father, but that$6#2$ young man is not quite the thing. 
211:249,11[P  ]| He has been opening the doors very often this evening, 
211:249,12[P  ]| and keeping them open$2$ very inconsiderately. He does 
211:249,13[P  ]| not think of the draught. I do not mean$1$ to$9$ set$1$ you against 
211:249,14[P  ]| him, but indeed he is not quite the thing!" 
211:249,15['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was sorry for$4$ such a charge$0$. She knew 
211:249,16['  ]| the importance of it, and said every*thing in$4$ her power 
211:249,17['  ]| to$9$ do it away. Every door was now closed, the passage 
211:249,18['  ]| plan given up$5$, and the first scheme$0$ of dancing only in$4$ the 
211:249,19['  ]| room they were in$4$ resorted to$5$ again; and with such 
211:249,20['  ]| good-will on$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's part$0$, that$3$ the space which$6#1$ 
211:249,21['  ]| a quarter$0#1$ of an hour before$5$ had been deemed barely 
211:249,22['  ]| sufficient for$4$ five couple, was now endeavoured to$9$ be made 
211:249,23['  ]| out$5$ quite enough for$4$ ten. 
211:249,24[E  ]| "We were too$5#1$ magnificent," 
211:249,24['  ]| said he. 
211:249,24[E  ]| "We allowed 
211:249,25[E  ]| unnecessary room. Ten couple may$1$ stand$1$ here very well$5$." 
211:249,26['  ]| $EM#A$Emma demurred. 
211:249,26[A  ]| "It would be a crowd ~~ a sad crowd; 
211:249,27[A  ]| and what could be worse than dancing without space to$9$ 
211:249,28[A  ]| turn$1$ in$4$?" 
211:249,29[E  ]| "Very true," 
211:249,29['  ]| he gravely replied; 
211:249,29[E  ]| "it was very bad." 
211:249,30['  ]| But still$5$ he went on$5$ measuring, and still$5$ he ended with, 
211:249,31[E  ]| "I think there will$1$ be very tolerable room for$4$ ten 
211:249,32[E  ]| couple." 
211:249,33[A  ]| "No$7$, no$7$," 
211:249,33['  ]| said she, 
211:249,33[A  ]| "you are quite unreasonable. It 
211:249,34[A  ]| would be dreadful to$9$ be standing so$5#1$ close$5$! Nothing can 
211:249,35[A  ]| be farther from pleasure than to$9$ be dancing in$4$ a crowd ~~ 
211:249,36[A  ]| and a crowd in$4$ a little room!" 
211:249,37[E  ]| "There is no$2$ denying it," 
211:249,37['  ]| he replied. 
211:249,37[E  ]| "I agree with 
211:249,38[E  ]| you exactly. A crowd in$4$ a little room ~~ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
211:250,01[E  ]| you have the art of giving pictures in$4$ a few words. 
211:250,02[E  ]| Exquisite, quite exquisite! ~~ Still$5$, however, having proceeded 
211:250,03[E  ]| so$5#1$ far, one is unwilling to$9$ give the matter up$5$. It 
211:250,04[E  ]| would be a disappointment to$4$ my father ~~ and altogether 
211:250,05[E  ]| ~~ I do not know that$3$ ~~ I am rather of opinion that$3$ ten 
211:250,06[E  ]| couple might stand$1$ here very well$5$." 
211:250,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma perceived that$3$ 
211:250,07@a   | the nature of his gallantry was 
211:250,08@a   | a little self-willed, and that$3$ he would rather oppose than 
211:250,09@a   | lose the pleasure of dancing with her; 
211:250,09['  ]| but she took the 
211:250,10['  ]| compliment$0$, and forgave the rest$0#1$. 
211:250,10@a   | Had she intended ever 
211:250,11@a   | to$9$ \marry\ him, it might have been worth*while to$9$ pause$1$ 
211:250,12@a   | and consider, and try to$9$ understand the value$0$ of his 
211:250,13@a   | preference, and the character of his temper; but for$4$ all 
211:250,14@a   | the purposes of their acquaintance, he was quite amiable 
211:250,15@a   | enough. 
211:250,16['  ]| Before$4$ the middle of the next day, he was at Hartfield; 
211:250,17['  ]| and he entered the room with such an agreeable smile$0$ as 
211:250,18['  ]| certified the continuance of the scheme$0$. It soon appeared 
211:250,19['  ]| that$3$ he came to$9$ announce an improvement. 
211:250,20[E  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
211:250,20['  ]| he almost immediately began, 
211:250,21[E  ]| "your inclination for$4$ dancing has not been quite frightened 
211:250,22[E  ]| away, I hope$1$, by$4$ the terrors of my father's little 
211:250,23[E  ]| rooms. I bring a new proposal on$4$ the subject$0$: ~~ a 
211:250,24[E  ]| thought$0$ of my father's, which$6#1$ waits only your approbation 
211:250,25[E  ]| to$9$ be acted upon$5$. May$1$ I hope$1$ for$4$ the honour$0$ of your 
211:250,26[E  ]| hand$0$ for$4$ the two first dances$0$ of this little projected ball$0#2$, 
211:250,27[E  ]| to$9$ be given, not at Randalls, but at the Crown*Inn?" 
211:250,28[A  ]| "The Crown$0#1$!" 
211:250,29[E  ]| "Yes; if you and $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse see no$2$ objection, 
211:250,30[E  ]| and I trust$1$ you cannot, my father hopes$1$ his friends will$1$ 
211:250,31[E  ]| be so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ visit$1$ him there. Better accommodations, 
211:250,32[E  ]| he can promise$1$ them, and not a less grateful welcome$0$ than 
211:250,33[E  ]| at Randalls. It is his own$2$ idea. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston sees no$2$ 
211:250,34[E  ]| objection to$4$ it, provided you are satisfied. This is what 
211:250,35[E  ]| we all feel. Oh! you were perfectly right$2#1$! Ten couple, 
211:250,36[E  ]| in$4$ either of the Randalls rooms, would have been insufferable! ~~ 
211:250,37[E  ]| Dreadful! ~~ I felt how right$2#1$ you were the 
211:250,38[E  ]| whole$2$ time, but was too$5#1$ anxious for$4$ securing \any*thing\ 
211:251,01[E  ]| to$9$ like$1$ to$9$ yield. Is not it a good exchange$0$? ~~ You consent$1$ 
211:251,02[E  ]| ~~ I hope$1$ you consent$1$?" 
211:251,03[A  ]| "It appears to$4$ me a plan that$6#1$ nobody can object$1$ to$4$, 
211:251,04[A  ]| if $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston do not. I think it admirable; 
211:251,05[A  ]| and, as far as I can answer$1$ for$4$ myself, shall be most happy 
211:251,06[A  ]| ~~ It seems the only improvement that$6#1$ could be. 
211:251,07[A  ]| Papa, do you not think it an excellent improvement?" 
211:251,08['  ]| She was obliged to$9$ repeat and explain it, before$3$ it was 
211:251,09['  ]| fully comprehended; and then, being$1$ quite new, further 
211:251,10['  ]| representations were necessary to$9$ make$1$ it acceptable. 
211:251,11[P  ]| "No$7$; he thought$1$ it very far from an improvement ~~ 
211:251,12[P  ]| a very bad plan ~~ much worse than the other. A room 
211:251,13[P  ]| at an inn was always damp$2$ and dangerous; never properly 
211:251,14[P  ]| aired, or fit$2$ to$9$ be inhabited. If they must dance$1$, 
211:251,15[P  ]| they had better dance$1$ at Randalls. He had never been 
211:251,16[P  ]| in$4$ the room at the Crown$0#1$ in$4$ his life ~~ did not know the 
211:251,17[P  ]| people who$6#1$ kept it by$4$ sight. ~~ Oh! no$7$ ~~ a very bad plan. 
211:251,18[P  ]| They would catch$1$ worse colds at the Crown$0#1$ than any*where." 
211:251,19[P  ]| 
211:251,20[E  ]| "I was going to$9$ observe, sir," 
211:251,20['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
211:251,21[E  ]| "that$3$ one of the great recommendations of this change$0$ 
211:251,22[E  ]| would be the very little danger of any*body's catching 
211:251,23[E  ]| cold$0$ ~~ so$5#1$ much less danger at the Crown$0#1$ than at Randalls! 
211:251,24[E  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Perry might have reason$0$ to$9$ regret$1$ the alteration, but 
211:251,25[E  ]| nobody else could." 
211:251,26[P  ]| "Sir," 
211:251,26['  ]| said $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, rather warmly, 
211:251,26[P  ]| "you are 
211:251,27[P  ]| very much mistaken if you suppose $EM#W$Mr%*Perry to$9$ be that$6#2$ 
211:251,28[P  ]| sort of character. $EM#W$Mr%*Perry is extremely concerned 
211:251,29[P  ]| when any of us are ill. But I do not understand how the 
211:251,30[P  ]| room at the Crown$0#1$ can be safer for$4$ you than your father's 
211:251,31[P  ]| house." 
211:251,32[E  ]| "From the very circumstance of its being$1$ larger, sir. 
211:251,33[E  ]| We shall have no$2$ occasion$0$ to$9$ open$1$ the windows at all ~~ 
211:251,34[E  ]| not once the whole$2$ evening; and it is that$6#2$ dreadful habit of 
211:251,35[E  ]| opening the windows, letting in$4$ cold$2$ air upon$4$ heated bodies, 
211:251,36[E  ]| which$6#1$ (as you well$5$ know, sir) does the mischief." 
211:251,37[P  ]| "Open$1$ the windows! ~~ but surely, $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill, nobody 
211:251,38[P  ]| would think of opening the windows at Randalls. 
211:252,01[P  ]| Nobody could be so$5#1$ imprudent! I never heard of such 
211:252,02[P  ]| a thing. Dancing with open$2$ windows! ~~ I am sure, 
211:252,03[P  ]| neither your father nor $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston (poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor 
211:252,04[P  ]| that$6#1$ was) would suffer it." 
211:252,05[E  ]| "Ah! sir ~~ but a thoughtless young person will$1$ sometimes 
211:252,06[E  ]| step$1$ behind a window-curtain, and throw$1$ up$5$ a sash, 
211:252,07[E  ]| without its being$1$ suspected. I have often known it done 
211:252,08[E  ]| myself." 
211:252,09[P  ]| "Have you indeed, sir? ~~ Bless me! I never could 
211:252,10[P  ]| have supposed it. But I live out$5$ of the world, and am 
211:252,11[P  ]| often astonished at what I hear. However, this does 
211:252,12[P  ]| make$1$ a difference; and, perhaps, when we come to$9$ talk$1$ 
211:252,13[P  ]| it over ~~ but these sort of things require a good deal$0$ of 
211:252,14[P  ]| consideration. One cannot resolve$1$ upon$4$ them in$4$ a hurry$0$. 
211:252,15[P  ]| If $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston will$1$ be so$5#1$ obliging as to$9$ call$1$ here 
211:252,16[P  ]| one morning, we may$1$ talk$1$ it over, and see what can be 
211:252,17[P  ]| done." 
211:252,18[E  ]| "But, unfortunately, sir, my time is so$5#1$ limited ~~" 
211:252,19[A  ]| "Oh!" 
211:252,19['  ]| interrupted $EM#A$Emma, 
211:252,19[A  ]| "there will$1$ be plenty of 
211:252,20[A  ]| time for$4$ talking every*thing over. There is no$2$ hurry$0$ at 
211:252,21[A  ]| all. If it can be contrived to$9$ be at the Crown$0#1$, papa, it 
211:252,22[A  ]| will$1$ be very convenient for$4$ the horses. They will$1$ be so$5#1$ 
211:252,23[A  ]| near$4$ their own$2$ stable." 
211:252,24[P  ]| "So$3$ they will$1$, my dear$2#1$. That$6#2$ is a great thing. Not 
211:252,25[P  ]| that$3$ $EM#ZI$James ever complains; but it is right$2#1$ to$9$ spare$1$ our 
211:252,26[P  ]| horses when we can. If I could be sure of the rooms being$1$ 
211:252,27[P  ]| thoroughly aired ~~ but is $EM#ZZO$Mrs%*Stokes to$9$ be trusted? I 
211:252,28[P  ]| doubt$1$ it. I do not know her, even$5$ by$4$ sight." 
211:252,29[E  ]| "I can answer$1$ for$4$ every*thing of that$6#2$ nature, sir, 
211:252,30[E  ]| because it will$1$ be under $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's care$0$. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
211:252,31[E  ]| undertakes to$9$ direct$1$ the whole$0$." 
211:252,32[A  ]| "There, papa! ~~ Now you must be satisfied ~~ Our own$2$ 
211:252,33[A  ]| dear$2#1$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, who$6#1$ is carefulness itself. Do not you 
211:252,34[A  ]| remember what $EM#W$Mr%*Perry said, so$5#1$ many years ago, when 
211:252,35[A  ]| I had the measles? 
211:252,35@w   | ""If \$EM#O$Miss*Taylor\ undertakes to$9$ wrap 
211:252,36@w   | $EM#A$Miss*Emma up$5$, you need$1$ not have any fears, sir."" 
211:252,36[A  ]| How 
211:252,37[A  ]| often I have heard you speak of it as such a compliment$0$ 
211:252,38[A  ]| to$4$ her!" 
211:253,01[P  ]| "Aye, very true. $EM#W$Mr%*Perry did say so$5#2$. I shall never 
211:253,02[P  ]| forget it. Poor little $EM#A$Emma! You were very bad with 
211:253,03[P  ]| the measles; that$6#2$ is, you would have been very bad, but 
211:253,04[P  ]| for$4$ $EM#W$Perry's great attention. He came four times a day 
211:253,05[P  ]| for$4$ a week. He said, from the first, it was a very good sort 
211:253,06[P  ]| ~~ which$6#1$ was our great comfort$0$; but the measles are a 
211:253,07[P  ]| dreadful complaint. I hope$1$ whenever poor $EM#L$Isabella's 
211:253,08[P  ]| little ones have the measles, she will$1$ send for$4$ $EM#W$Perry. 
211:253,09[E  ]| "My father and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston are at the Crown$0#1$ at this 
211:253,10[E  ]| moment," 
211:253,10['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
211:253,10[E  ]| "examining the capabilities 
211:253,11[E  ]| of the house. I left them there and came on$5$ to$4$ 
211:253,12[E  ]| Hartfield, impatient for$4$ your opinion, and hoping you 
211:253,13[E  ]| might be persuaded to$9$ join them and give your advice on$4$ 
211:253,14[E  ]| the spot. I was desired to$9$ say so$5#2$ from both. It would be 
211:253,15[E  ]| the greatest pleasure to$4$ them, if you could allow me to$9$ 
211:253,16[E  ]| attend you there. They can do nothing satisfactorily 
211:253,17[E  ]| without you." 
211:253,18['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was most happy to$9$ be called to$4$ such a council; 
211:253,19['  ]| and her father, engaging to$9$ think it all over while$3$ she was 
211:253,20['  ]| gone, the two young people set$1$ off together without delay$0$ 
211:253,21['  ]| for$4$ the Crown$0#1$. There were $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; delighted 
211:253,22['  ]| to$9$ see her and receive her approbation, very busy 
211:253,23['  ]| and very happy in$4$ their different way; she, in$4$ some little 
211:253,24['  ]| distress$0$; and he, finding every*thing perfect$2$. 
211:253,25[O  ]| "$EM#A$Emma," 
211:253,25['  ]| said she, 
211:253,25[O  ]| "this paper is worse than I expected. 
211:253,26[O  ]| Look$1$! in$4$ places$0$ you see it is dreadfully dirty; 
211:253,27[O  ]| and the wainscot is more yellow and forlorn than any*thing 
211:253,28[O  ]| I could have imagined." 
211:253,29[N  ]| "My dear$2#1$, you are too$5#1$ particular," 
211:253,29['  ]| said her husband. 
211:253,30[N  ]| "What does all that$6#2$ signify? You will$1$ see nothing of it 
211:253,31[N  ]| by$4$ candle-light. It will$1$ be as clean as Randalls by$4$ candle-light. 
211:253,32[N  ]| We never see any*thing of it on$4$ our club-nights." 
211:253,33['  ]| The ladies here probably exchanged looks$0$ which$6#1$ 
211:253,34['  ]| meant, 
211:253,34@y   | "Men never know when things are dirty or not;" 
211:253,35['  ]| and the gentlemen perhaps thought$1$ each to$4$ himself, 
211:253,36@y   | "Women will$1$ have their little nonsenses and needless 
211:253,37@y   | cares$0$." 
211:253,38['  ]| One perplexity, however, arose, which$6#1$ the gentlemen 
211:254,01['  ]| did not disdain$1$. It regarded a supper-room. At the 
211:254,02['  ]| time of the ball-room's being$1$ built, suppers had not been 
211:254,03['  ]| in$4$ question$0$; and a small card-room adjoining, was the 
211:254,04['  ]| only addition. What was to$9$ be done? This card-room 
211:254,05['  ]| would be wanted as a card-room now; or, if cards were 
211:254,06['  ]| conveniently voted unnecessary by$4$ their four selves, still$5$ 
211:254,07['  ]| was not it too$5#1$ small for$4$ any comfortable supper? Another 
211:254,08['  ]| room of much better size might be secured for$4$ the purpose; 
211:254,09['  ]| but it was at the other end$0$ of the house, and a long awkward 
211:254,10['  ]| passage must be gone through$5$ to$9$ get at it. This made 
211:254,11['  ]| a difficulty. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was afraid of draughts for$4$ the 
211:254,12['  ]| young people in$4$ that$6#2$ passage; and neither $EM#A$Emma nor 
211:254,13['  ]| the gentlemen could tolerate the prospect of being$1$ 
211:254,14['  ]| miserably crowded at supper. 
211:254,15['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston proposed having no$2$ regular supper; 
211:254,16['  ]| merely sandwiches, &c% set$1$ out$5$ in$4$ the little room; but 
211:254,17['  ]| that$6#2$ was scouted as a wretched suggestion. A private$2$ 
211:254,18['  ]| dance$0$, without sitting down$5$ to$4$ supper, was pronounced an 
211:254,19['  ]| infamous fraud upon$4$ the rights of men and women; and 
211:254,20['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston must not speak of it again. She then took 
211:254,21['  ]| another line of expediency, and looking into the doubtful 
211:254,22['  ]| room, observed, 
211:254,23[O  ]| "I do not think it \is\ so$5#1$ very small. We shall not be 
211:254,24[O  ]| many, you know." 
211:254,25['  ]| And $EM#N$Mr%*Weston at the same time, walking briskly with 
211:254,26['  ]| long steps through$4$ the passage, was calling out$5$, 
211:254,27[N  ]| "You talk$1$ a great deal$0$ of the length of this passage, 
211:254,28[N  ]| my dear$2#1$. It is a mere nothing after$4$ all; and not the 
211:254,29[N  ]| least draught from the stairs." 
211:254,30[O  ]| "I wish$1$," 
211:254,30['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
211:254,30[O  ]| "one could know which$6#1$ 
211:254,31[O  ]| arrangement our guests in$4$ general$0$ would like$1$ best. To$9$ 
211:254,32[O  ]| do what would be most generally pleasing must be our 
211:254,33[O  ]| object$0$ ~~ if one could but tell what that$6#2$ would be." 
211:254,34[E  ]| "Yes, very true," 
211:254,34['  ]| cried $EM#E$Frank, 
211:254,34[E  ]| "very true. You want$1$ 
211:254,35[E  ]| your neighbours' opinions. I do not wonder$1$ at you. If 
211:254,36[E  ]| one could ascertain what the chief of them ~~ the $EM#F1$Coles, for$4$ 
211:254,37[E  ]| instance$0$. They are not far off. Shall I call$1$ upon$4$ them? 
211:254,38[E  ]| Or $EM#D$Miss*Bates? She is still$5$ nearer. ~~And I do not know 
211:255,01[E  ]| whether $EM#D$Miss*Bates is not as likely to$9$ understand the 
211:255,02[E  ]| inclinations of the rest$0#1$ of the people as any*body. I think 
211:255,03[E  ]| we do want$1$ a larger council. Suppose I go and invite 
211:255,04[E  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates to$9$ join us?" 
211:255,05[O  ]| "Well$7$ ~~ if you please," 
211:255,05['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston rather hesitating, 
211:255,06[O  ]| "if you think she will$1$ be of any use$0$." 
211:255,07[A  ]| "You will$1$ get nothing to$4$ the purpose from $EM#D$Miss*Bates," 
211:255,08['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
211:255,08[A  ]| "She will$1$ be all delight$0$ and gratitude, but 
211:255,09[A  ]| she will$1$ tell you nothing. She will$1$ not even$5$ listen to$4$ your 
211:255,10[A  ]| questions. I see no$2$ advantage in$4$ consulting $EM#D$Miss*Bates." 
211:255,11[E  ]| "But she is so$5#1$ amusing, so$5#1$ extremely amusing! I am 
211:255,12[E  ]| very fond of hearing $EM#D$Miss*Bates talk$1$. And I need$1$ not 
211:255,13[E  ]| bring the whole$2$ family, you know." 
211:255,14['  ]| Here $EM#N$Mr%*Weston joined them, and on$4$ hearing what was 
211:255,15['  ]| proposed, gave it his decided approbation. 
211:255,16[N  ]| "Aye, do, $EM#E$Frank. ~~ Go and fetch $EM#D$Miss*Bates, and let us 
211:255,17[N  ]| end$1$ the matter at once. She will$1$ enjoy the scheme$0$, I am 
211:255,18[N  ]| sure; and I do not know a properer person for$4$ shewing 
211:255,19[N  ]| us how to$9$ do away difficulties. Fetch $EM#D$Miss*Bates. We 
211:255,20[N  ]| are growing a little too$5#1$ nice. She is a standing lesson of 
211:255,21[N  ]| how to$9$ be happy. But fetch them both. Invite them 
211:255,22[N  ]| both." 
211:255,23[E  ]| "Both sir! Can the old lady?" ~~ 
211:255,24[N  ]| "The old lady! No$7$, the young lady, to$9$ be sure. I 
211:255,25[N  ]| shall think you a great blockhead, $EM#E$Frank, if you bring 
211:255,26[N  ]| the aunt without the niece." 
211:255,27[E  ]| "Oh! I beg your pardon$0$, sir. I did not immediately 
211:255,28[E  ]| recollect. Undoubtedly if you wish$1$ it, I will$1$ endeavour$1$ 
211:255,29[E  ]| to$9$ persuade them both." 
211:255,29['  ]| And away he ran. 
211:255,30['  ]| Long before$3$ he re-appeared, attending the short, neat, 
211:255,31['  ]| brisk-moving aunt, and her elegant niece, ~~ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
211:255,32['  ]| like$4$ a sweet-tempered woman and a good wife, had examined 
211:255,33['  ]| the passage again, and found the evils of it much 
211:255,34['  ]| less than she had supposed before$5$ ~~ indeed very trifling; 
211:255,35['  ]| and here ended the difficulties of decision. All the rest$0#1$, 
211:255,36['  ]| in$4$ speculation at least, was perfectly smooth$2$. All the 
211:255,37['  ]| minor arrangements of table and chair, lights and music, 
211:255,38['  ]| tea and supper, made themselves; or were left as mere 
211:256,01['  ]| trifles to$9$ be settled at any time between $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and 
211:256,02['  ]| $EM#ZZO$Mrs%*Stokes. ~~ Every*body invited, was certainly to$9$ come; 
211:256,03['  ]| $EM#E$Frank had already written to$4$ Enscombe to$9$ propose 
211:256,04['  ]| staying a few days beyond$4$ his fortnight, which$6#1$ could not 
211:256,05['  ]| possibly be refused. And a delightful dance$0$ it was to$9$ be. 
211:256,06['  ]| Most cordially, when $EM#D$Miss*Bates arrived, did she agree 
211:256,07['  ]| that$3$ it must. As a counsellor she was not wanted; but 
211:256,08['  ]| as an approver, (a much safer character,) she was truly 
211:256,09['  ]| welcome$2$. Her approbation, at once general$2$ and minute$2$, 
211:256,10['  ]| warm$2$ and incessant, could not but please; and for$4$ another 
211:256,11['  ]| half-hour they were all walking to$8$ and fro, between the 
211:256,12['  ]| different rooms, some suggesting, some attending, and all 
211:256,13['  ]| in$4$ happy enjoyment of the future. The party did not 
211:256,14['  ]| break up$5$ without $EM#A$Emma's being$1$ positively secured for$4$ 
211:256,15['  ]| the two first dances$0$ by$4$ the hero of the evening, nor without 
211:256,16['  ]| her overhearing $EM#N$Mr%*Weston whisper$1$ to$4$ his wife, 
211:256,16[N  ]| "He has 
211:256,17[N  ]| asked her, my dear$2#1$. That's right$2#1$. I knew he would!" 
212:257,01['  ]| One thing only was wanting to$9$ make$1$ the prospect of the 
212:257,02['  ]| ball$0#2$ completely satisfactory to$4$ $EM#A$Emma ~~ its being$1$ fixed for$4$ 
212:257,03['  ]| a day within the granted term of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's stay$0$ in$4$ 
212:257,04['  ]| Surry; for$3$, in$4$ spite$8$ of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's confidence, she could 
212:257,05['  ]| not think it so$5#1$ very impossible that$3$ the $EM#W$Churchills might 
212:257,06['  ]| not allow their nephew to$9$ remain a day beyond$4$ his fortnight. 
212:257,07['  ]| But this was not judged feasible. The preparations 
212:257,08['  ]| must take their time, nothing could be properly ready till 
212:257,09['  ]| the third week were entered on$5$, and for$4$ a few days they 
212:257,10['  ]| must be planning, proceeding and hoping in$4$ uncertainty 
212:257,11['  ]| ~~at the risk$0$ ~~ in$4$ her opinion, the great risk$0$, of its being$1$ 
212:257,12['  ]| all in$4$ vain. 
212:257,13['  ]| Enscombe however was gracious, gracious in$4$ fact, if not 
212:257,14['  ]| in$4$ word. 
212:257,14@a   | His wish$0$ of staying longer evidently did not 
212:257,15@a   | please; but it was not opposed. All was safe and prosperous; 
212:257,16['  ]| and as the removal of one solicitude generally 
212:257,17['  ]| makes way for$4$ another, $EM#A$Emma, being$1$ now certain of her 
212:257,18['  ]| ball$0#2$, began to$9$ adopt as the next vexation $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
212:257,19['  ]| provoking indifference about$4$ it. 
212:257,19@a   | Either because he did 
212:257,20@a   | not dance$1$ himself, or because the plan had been formed 
212:257,21@a   | without his being$1$ consulted, he seemed resolved that$3$ it 
212:257,22@a   | should not interest$1$ him, determined against its exciting 
212:257,23@a   | any present$2$ curiosity, or affording him any future 
212:257,24@a   | amusement. 
212:257,24['  ]| To$4$ her voluntary communications $EM#A$Emma 
212:257,25['  ]| could get no$2$ more approving reply$0$, than, 
212:257,26[B  ]| "Very well$5$. If the $EM#N1$Westons think it worth*while to$9$ be 
212:257,27[B  ]| at all this trouble$0$ for$4$ a few hours of noisy entertainment, 
212:257,28[B  ]| I have nothing to$9$ say against it, but that$3$ they shall not 
212:257,29[B  ]| choose pleasures for$4$ me. ~~ Oh! yes, I must be there; I 
212:257,30[B  ]| could not refuse; and I will$1$ keep as much awake$2$ as I can; 
212:257,31[B  ]| but I would rather be at home, looking over $EM#W$William*Larkins's 
212:257,32[B  ]| week's account$0$; much rather, I confess. ~~ 
212:257,33[B  ]| Pleasure in$4$ seeing dancing! ~~ not I, indeed ~~ I never look$1$ 
212:258,01[B  ]| at it ~~ I do not know who$6#1$ does. ~~ Fine dancing, I believe, 
212:258,02[B  ]| like$4$ virtue, must be its own$2$ reward$0$. Those who$6#1$ are standing 
212:258,03[B  ]| by$5$ are usually thinking of something very different." 
212:258,04['  ]| This $EM#A$Emma felt was aimed at her; and it made her 
212:258,05['  ]| quite angry. 
212:258,05@a   | It was not in$4$ compliment$0$ to$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
212:258,06@a   | however that$3$ he was so$5#1$ indifferent, or so$5#1$ indignant; he 
212:258,07@a   | was not guided by$4$ \her\ feelings in$4$ reprobating the ball$0#2$, for$3$ 
212:258,08@a   | \she\ enjoyed the thought$0$ of it to$4$ an extraordinary degree. 
212:258,09@a   | It made her animated ~~ open*hearted ~~ she voluntarily 
212:258,10@a   | said; ~~ 
212:258,11[J  ]| "Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, I hope$1$ nothing may$1$ happen 
212:258,12[J  ]| to$9$ prevent the ball$0#2$. What a disappointment it would be! 
212:258,13[J  ]| I do look$1$ forward$5$ to$4$ it, I own$1$, with \very\ great pleasure." 
212:258,14@a   | It was not to$9$ oblige $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax therefore that$3$ he would 
212:258,15@a   | have preferred the society of $EM#W$William*Larkins. No$7$! ~~ 
212:258,16@a   | she was more and more convinced that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was 
212:258,17@a   | quite mistaken in$4$ that$6#2$ surmise$0$. There was a great deal$0$ of 
212:258,18@a   | friendly and of compassionate attachment on$4$ his side$0$ ~~ 
212:258,19@a   | but no$2$ love$0$. 
212:258,20['  ]| Alas! there was soon no$2$ leisure for$4$ quarrelling with 
212:258,21['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. Two days of joyful security were immediately 
212:258,22['  ]| followed by$4$ the overthrow of every*thing. A letter 
212:258,23['  ]| arrived from $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill to$9$ urge his nephew's instant$2$ 
212:258,24['  ]| return$0$. 
212:258,24@w   | $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill was unwell ~~ far too$5#1$ unwell to$9$ do 
212:258,25@w   | without him; she had been in$4$ a very suffering state$0$ 
212:258,25['  ]| (so$5#2$ 
212:258,26['  ]| said her husband) 
212:258,26@w   | when writing to$4$ her nephew two days 
212:258,27@w   | before$5$, though from her usual unwillingness to$9$ give pain$0$, 
212:258,28@w   | and constant habit of never thinking of herself, she had 
212:258,29@w   | not mentioned it; but now she was too$5#1$ ill to$9$ trifle$1$, and 
212:258,30@w   | must entreat him to$9$ set$1$ off for$4$ Enscombe without delay$0$. 
212:258,31['  ]| The substance of this letter was forwarded to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ 
212:258,32['  ]| a note$0$ from $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, instantly. As to$4$ his going, it 
212:258,33['  ]| was inevitable. He must be gone within a few hours, 
212:258,34['  ]| though without feeling any real alarm$0$ for$4$ his aunt, to$9$ 
212:258,35['  ]| lessen his repugnance. 
212:258,35@e   | He knew her illnesses; they never 
212:258,36@e   | occurred but for$4$ her own$2$ convenience. 
212:258,37['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston added, 
212:258,37[O  ]| "that$3$ he could only allow himself 
212:258,38[O  ]| time to$9$ hurry$1$ to$4$ Highbury, after$4$ breakfast$0$, and take leave$0$ 
212:259,01[O  ]| of the few friends there whom$6#1$ he could suppose to$9$ feel any 
212:259,02[O  ]| interest$0$ in$4$ him; and that$3$ he might be expected at Hartfield 
212:259,03[O  ]| very soon." 
212:259,04['  ]| This wretched note$0$ was the finale= of $EM#A$Emma's breakfast$0$. 
212:259,05['  ]| When once it had been read, there was no$2$ doing any*thing, 
212:259,06['  ]| but lament and exclaim. 
212:259,06@a   | The loss of the ball$0#2$ ~~ the loss of 
212:259,07@a   | the young man ~~ and all that$6#1$ the young man might be 
212:259,08@a   | feeling! ~~ It was too$5#1$ wretched! ~~ Such a delightful evening 
212:259,09@a   | as it would have been! ~~ Every*body so$5#1$ happy! and she 
212:259,10@a   | and her partner the happiest! ~~ 
212:259,10[A  ]| "I said it would be so$5#2$," 
212:259,11['  ]| was the only consolation. 
212:259,12['  ]| Her father's feelings were quite distinct. He thought$1$ 
212:259,13['  ]| principally of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's illness, and wanted to$9$ know 
212:259,14['  ]| how she was treated; 
212:259,14@p   | and as for$4$ the ball$0#2$, it was shocking 
212:259,15@p   | to$9$ have dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma disappointed; but they would all be 
212:259,16@p   | safer at home. 
212:259,17['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was ready for$4$ her visitor some time before$3$ he 
212:259,18['  ]| appeared; but if this reflected at all upon$4$ his impatience, 
212:259,19['  ]| his sorrowful look$0$ and total want$0$ of spirits when he did 
212:259,20['  ]| come might redeem him. He felt the going away almost 
212:259,21['  ]| too$5#1$ much to$9$ speak of it. 
212:259,21@a   | His dejection was most evident. 
212:259,22@a   | He sat really lost in$4$ thought$0$ for$4$ the first few minutes; 
212:259,23@a   | and when rousing himself, it was only to$9$ say, 
212:259,24[E  ]| "Of all horrid things, leave-taking is the worst." 
212:259,25[A  ]| "But you will$1$ come again," 
212:259,25['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
212:259,25[A  ]| "This will$1$ 
212:259,26[A  ]| not be your only visit$0$ to$4$ Randalls." 
212:259,27[E  ]| "Ah! ~~ 
212:259,27['  ]| (shaking his head$0$) ~~ 
212:259,27[E  ]| the uncertainty of when 
212:259,28[E  ]| I may$1$ be able to$9$ return$1$! ~~ I shall try for$4$ it with a zeal! ~~ 
212:259,29[E  ]| It will$1$ be the object$0$ of all my thoughts and cares$0$! ~~ and 
212:259,30[E  ]| if my uncle and aunt go to$4$ town this spring$0$ ~~ but I am 
212:259,31[E  ]| afraid ~~ they did not stir last$2$ spring$0$ ~~ I am afraid it is 
212:259,32[E  ]| a custom gone for*ever." 
212:259,33[A  ]| "Our poor ball$0#2$ must be quite given up$5$." 
212:259,34[E  ]| "Ah! that$6#2$ ball$0#2$! ~~ why did we wait for$4$ any*thing? ~~ 
212:259,35[E  ]| why not seize the pleasure at once? ~~ How often is happiness 
212:259,36[E  ]| destroyed by$4$ preparation, foolish preparation! ~~ 
212:259,37[E  ]| You told us it would be so$5#2$. ~~ Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, why 
212:259,38[E  ]| are you always so$5#1$ right$2#1$?" 
212:260,01[A  ]| "Indeed, I am very sorry to$9$ be right$2#1$ in$4$ this instance$0$. 
212:260,02[A  ]| I would much rather have been merry than wise." 
212:260,03[E  ]| "If I can come again, we are still$5$ to$9$ have our ball$0#2$. My 
212:260,04[E  ]| father depends on$4$ it. Do not forget your engagement." 
212:260,05['  ]| $EM#A$Emma looked graciously. 
212:260,06[E  ]| "Such a fortnight as it has been!" 
212:260,06['  ]| he continued; 
212:260,07[E  ]| "every day more precious and more delightful than the 
212:260,08[E  ]| day before$5$! ~~ every day making me less fit$2$ to$9$ bear$1$ my 
212:260,09[E  ]| other place$0$. Happy those, who$6#1$ can remain at Highbury!" 
212:260,10[A  ]| "As you do us such ample justice now," 
212:260,10['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
212:260,11['  ]| laughing, 
212:260,11[A  ]| "I will$1$ venture to$9$ ask, whether you did not 
212:260,12[A  ]| come a little doubtingly at first? Do not we rather 
212:260,13[A  ]| surpass your expectations? I am sure we do. I am sure 
212:260,14[A  ]| you did not much expect to$9$ like$1$ us. You would not have 
212:260,15[A  ]| been so$5#1$ long in$4$ coming, if you had had a pleasant idea of 
212:260,16[A  ]| Highbury." 
212:260,17['  ]| He laughed rather consciously; and though denying the 
212:260,18['  ]| sentiment, $EM#A$Emma was convinced that$3$ it had been so$5#2$. 
212:260,19[A  ]| "And you must be off this very morning?" 
212:260,20[E  ]| "Yes; my father is to$9$ join me here: we shall walk$1$ 
212:260,21[E  ]| back$5$ together, and I must be off immediately. I am 
212:260,22[E  ]| almost afraid that$3$ every moment will$1$ bring him." 
212:260,23[A  ]| "Not five minutes to$9$ spare$1$ even$5$ for$4$ your friends $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
212:260,24[A  ]| and $EM#D$Miss*Bates? How unlucky! $EM#D$Miss*Bates's 
212:260,25[A  ]| powerful, argumentative mind$0$ might have strengthened 
212:260,26[A  ]| yours." 
212:260,27[E  ]| "Yes ~~ I \have\ called there; passing the door, I thought$1$ 
212:260,28[E  ]| it better. It was a right$2#1$ thing to$9$ do. I went in$5$ for$4$ three 
212:260,29[E  ]| minutes, and was detained by$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates's being$1$ absent. 
212:260,30[E  ]| She was out$5$; and I felt it impossible not to$9$ wait till she 
212:260,31[E  ]| came in$5$. She is a woman that$6#1$ one may$1$, that$6#1$ one \must\ 
212:260,32[E  ]| laugh$1$ at; but that$6#1$ one would not wish$1$ to$9$ slight$1$. It was 
212:260,33[E  ]| better to$9$ pay$1$ my visit$0$, then" ~~ 
212:260,34['  ]| He hesitated, got up$5$, walked to$4$ a window. 
212:260,35[E  ]| "In$4$ short," 
212:260,35['  ]| said he, 
212:260,35[E  ]| "perhaps, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse ~~ 
212:260,36[E  ]| I think you can hardly be quite without suspicion" ~~ 
212:260,37['  ]| He looked at her, as if wanting to$9$ read her thoughts. 
212:260,38['  ]| She hardly knew what to$9$ say. 
212:260,38@a   | It seemed like$4$ the fore-runner 
212:261,01@a   | of something absolutely serious$2$, which$6#1$ she did not 
212:261,02@a   | wish$1$. 
212:261,02['  ]| Forcing herself to$9$ speak, therefore, in$4$ the hope$0$ of 
212:261,03['  ]| putting it by$5$, she calmly said, 
212:261,04[A  ]| "You were quite in$4$ the right$0$; it was most natural$2$ to$9$ 
212:261,05[A  ]| pay$1$ your visit$0$, then" ~~ 
212:261,06['  ]| He was silent. She believed he was looking at her; 
212:261,07@a   | probably reflecting on$4$ what she had said, and trying to$9$ 
212:261,08@a   | understand the manner. 
212:261,08['  ]| She heard him sigh$1$. 
212:261,08@a   | It was 
212:261,09@a   | natural$2$ for$4$ him to$9$ feel that$3$ he had \cause\ to$9$ sigh$1$. He could 
212:261,10@a   | not believe her to$9$ be encouraging him. 
212:261,10['  ]| A few awkward 
212:261,11['  ]| moments passed, and he sat down$5$ again; and in$4$ a more 
212:261,12['  ]| determined manner said, 
212:261,13[E  ]| "It was something to$9$ feel that$3$ all the rest$0#1$ of my time 
212:261,14[E  ]| might be given to$4$ Hartfield. My regard$0$ for$4$ Hartfield is 
212:261,15[E  ]| most warm$2$" ~~ 
212:261,16['  ]| He stopt again, rose$1$ again, and seemed quite embarrassed. ~~ 
212:261,17@a   | He was more in$4$ love$0$ with her than $EM#A$Emma had 
212:261,18@a   | supposed; and who$6#2$ can say how it might have ended, if 
212:261,19@a   | his father had not made his appearance? 
212:261,19['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
212:261,20['  ]| soon followed; and the necessity of exertion made him 
212:261,21['  ]| composed. 
212:261,22['  ]| A very few minutes more, however, completed the 
212:261,23['  ]| present$2$ trial. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, always alert$2$ when business was 
212:261,24['  ]| to$9$ be done, and as incapable of procrastinating any evil 
212:261,25['  ]| that$6#1$ was inevitable, as of foreseeing any that$6#1$ was doubtful, 
212:261,26['  ]| said, 
212:261,26[N  ]| "It was time to$9$ go;" 
212:261,26['  ]| and the young man, though 
212:261,27['  ]| he might and did sigh$1$, could not but agree, and rise$1$ to$9$ 
212:261,28['  ]| take leave$0$. 
212:261,29[E  ]| "I shall hear about$4$ you all," 
212:261,29['  ]| said he; 
212:261,29[E  ]| "that$6#2$ is my 
212:261,30[E  ]| chief consolation. I shall hear of every*thing that$6#1$ is going 
212:261,31[E  ]| on$5$ among you. I have engaged $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$9$ correspond 
212:261,32[E  ]| with me. She has been so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ promise$1$ it. Oh! the 
212:261,33[E  ]| blessing of a female$2$ correspondent, when one is really 
212:261,34[E  ]| interested in$4$ the absent! ~~ she will$1$ tell me every*thing. 
212:261,35[E  ]| In$4$ her letters I shall be at dear$2#1$ Highbury again." 
212:261,36['  ]| A very friendly shake$0$ of the hand$0$, a very earnest 
212:261,36[E  ]| "Good*bye," 
212:261,37['  ]| closed the speech, and the door had soon shut out$5$ 
212:261,38['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. Short had been the notice$0$ ~~ short their 
212:262,01['  ]| meeting; he was gone; and $EM#A$Emma felt so$5#1$ sorry to$9$ part$1$, 
212:262,02['  ]| and foresaw so$5#1$ great a loss to$4$ their little society from his 
212:262,03['  ]| absence as to$9$ begin to$9$ be afraid of being$1$ too$5#1$ sorry, and 
212:262,04['  ]| feeling it too$5#1$ much. 
212:262,05@a   | It was a sad change$0$. They had been meeting almost 
212:262,06@a   | every day since his arrival. Certainly his being$1$ at Randalls 
212:262,07@a   | had given great spirit to$4$ the last$2$ two weeks ~~ 
212:262,08@a   | indescribable spirit; the idea, the expectation of seeing 
212:262,09@a   | him which$6#1$ every morning had brought, the assurance of 
212:262,10@a   | his attentions, his liveliness, his manners! It had been 
212:262,11@a   | a very happy fortnight, and forlorn must be the sinking 
212:262,12@a   | from it into the common$2$ course$0$ of Hartfield days. To$9$ 
212:262,13@a   | complete$1$ every other recommendation, he had \almost\ told 
212:262,14@a   | her that$3$ he loved her. What strength, or what constancy 
212:262,15@a   | of affection he might be subject$2$ to$4$, was another point$0$; 
212:262,16@a   | but at present$0#1$ she could not doubt$1$ his having a decidedly 
212:262,17@a   | warm$2$ admiration, a conscious preference of herself; and 
212:262,18@a   | this persuasion, joined to$4$ all the rest$0#1$, made her think that$3$ 
212:262,19@a   | she \must\ be a little in$4$ love$0$ with him, in$4$ spite$8$ of every 
212:262,20@a   | previous determination against it. 
212:262,21[A  ]| "I certainly must," 
212:262,21['  ]| said she. 
212:262,21[A  ]| "This sensation$0#1$ of 
212:262,22[A  ]| listlessness, weariness, stupidity, this disinclination to$9$ sit 
212:262,23[A  ]| down$5$ and employ myself, this feeling of every*thing's 
212:262,24[A  ]| being$1$ dull and insipid about$4$ the house! ~~ I must be in$4$ 
212:262,25[A  ]| love$0$; I should be the oddest creature in$4$ the world if 
212:262,26[A  ]| I were not ~~ for$4$ a few weeks at least. Well$7$! evil to$4$ some 
212:262,27[A  ]| is always good to$4$ others. I shall have many fellow-mourners 
212:262,28[A  ]| for$4$ the ball$0#2$, if not for$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill; but 
212:262,29[A  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley will$1$ be happy. He may$1$ spend the evening 
212:262,30[A  ]| with his dear$2#1$ $EM#W$William*Larkins now if he likes." 
212:262,31['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, however, shewed no$2$ triumphant happiness. 
212:262,32['  ]| He could not say that$3$ he was sorry on$4$ his own$2$ 
212:262,33['  ]| account$0$; his very cheerful look$0$ would have contradicted 
212:262,34['  ]| him if he had; but he said, and very steadily, that$3$ he was 
212:262,35['  ]| sorry for$4$ the disappointment of the others, and with 
212:262,36['  ]| considerable kindness added, 
212:262,37[B  ]| "You, $EM#A$Emma, who$6#1$ have so$5#1$ few opportunities of dancing, 
212:262,38[B  ]| you are really out$5$ of luck; you are very much out$5$ of luck!" 
212:263,01['  ]| It was some days before$3$ she saw $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, to$9$ judge$1$ 
212:263,02['  ]| of her honest regret$0$ in$4$ this woeful change$0$; but when 
212:263,03['  ]| they did meet$1$, 
212:263,03@a   | her composure was odious. 
212:263,03['  ]| She had been 
212:263,04['  ]| particularly unwell, however, suffering from headache to$4$ 
212:263,05['  ]| a degree, which$6#1$ made her aunt declare, that$3$ 
212:263,05@d   | had the ball$0#2$ 
212:263,06@d   | taken place$0$, she did not think $EM#J$Jane could have attended 
212:263,07@d   | it; 
212:263,07@a   | and it was charity to$9$ impute some of her unbecoming
212:263,08@a   | indifference to$4$ the languor of ill-health. 
213:264,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma continued to$9$ entertain no$2$ doubt$0$ of her being$1$ in$4$ 
213:264,02['  ]| love$0$. Her ideas only varied as to$4$ the how much. At first, 
213:264,03['  ]| she thought$1$ it was a good deal$0$; and afterwards, but little. 
213:264,04['  ]| She had great pleasure in$4$ hearing $EM#E$Frank*Churchill talked 
213:264,05['  ]| of; and, for$4$ his sake, greater pleasure than ever in$4$ seeing 
213:264,06['  ]| $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; she was very often thinking of him, 
213:264,07['  ]| and quite impatient for$4$ a letter, that$3$ she might know how 
213:264,08['  ]| he was, how were his spirits, how was his aunt, and what 
213:264,09['  ]| was the chance$0$ of his coming to$4$ Randalls again this 
213:264,10['  ]| spring$0$. But, on$4$ the other hand$0$, she could not admit 
213:264,11['  ]| herself to$9$ be unhappy, nor, after$4$ the first morning, to$9$ be 
213:264,12['  ]| less disposed for$4$ employment than usual; she was still$5$ 
213:264,13['  ]| busy and cheerful; and, pleasing as he was, she could 
213:264,14['  ]| yet imagine him to$9$ have faults; and farther, though 
213:264,15['  ]| thinking of him so$5#1$ much, and, as she sat drawing or 
213:264,16['  ]| working, forming a thousand amusing schemes for$4$ the 
213:264,17['  ]| progress and close$0$ of their attachment, fancying interesting 
213:264,18['  ]| dialogues, and inventing elegant letters; the conclusion 
213:264,19['  ]| of every imaginary declaration on$4$ his side$0$ was that$3$ she 
213:264,20['  ]| \refused\ \him\. Their affection was always to$9$ subside into 
213:264,21['  ]| friendship. Every*thing tender$2$ and charming was to$9$ 
213:264,22['  ]| mark$1$ their parting; but still$5$ they were to$9$ part$1$. When 
213:264,23['  ]| she became sensible$2#1$ of this, it struck her that$3$ she could 
213:264,24['  ]| not be very much in$4$ love$0$; for$3$ in$4$ spite$8$ of her previous and 
213:264,25['  ]| fixed determination never to$9$ quit her father, never to$9$ 
213:264,26['  ]| marry, a strong attachment certainly must produce more 
213:264,27['  ]| of a struggle$0$ than she could foresee in$4$ her own$2$ feelings. 
213:264,28[A  ]| "I do not find myself making any use$0$ of the word 
213:264,29[A  ]| \sacrifice$0$\," 
213:264,29['  ]| said she. ~~ 
213:264,29[A  ]| "In$4$ not one of all my clever replies$0$, 
213:264,30[A  ]| my delicate negatives, is there any allusion to$4$ making 
213:264,31[A  ]| a sacrifice$0$. I do suspect that$3$ he is not really necessary to$4$ 
213:264,32[A  ]| my happiness. So$5#1$ much the better. I certainly will$1$ not 
213:265,01[A  ]| persuade myself to$9$ feel more than I do. I am quite 
213:265,02[A  ]| enough in$4$ love$0$. I should be sorry to$9$ be more." 
213:265,03['  ]| Upon$4$ the whole$0$, she was equally contented with her 
213:265,04['  ]| view$0$ of his feelings. 
213:265,05[A  ]| "\He\ is undoubtedly very much in$4$ love$0$ ~~ every*thing 
213:265,06[A  ]| denotes it ~~ very much in$4$ love$0$ indeed! ~~ and when he 
213:265,07[A  ]| comes again, if his affection continue, I must be on$4$ my 
213:265,08[A  ]| guard$0$ not to$9$ encourage it. ~~ It would be most inexcusable 
213:265,09[A  ]| to$9$ do otherwise, as my own$2$ mind$0$ is quite made up$5$. Not 
213:265,10[A  ]| that$3$ I imagine he can think I have been encouraging him 
213:265,11[A  ]| hitherto. No$7$, if he had believed me at all to$9$ share$1$ his 
213:265,12[A  ]| feelings, he would not have been so$5#1$ wretched. Could he 
213:265,13[A  ]| have thought$1$ himself encouraged, his looks$0$ and language 
213:265,14[A  ]| at parting would have been different. ~~ Still$5$, however, 
213:265,15[A  ]| I must be on$4$ my guard$0$. This is in$4$ the supposition of his 
213:265,16[A  ]| attachment continuing what it now is; but I do not know 
213:265,17[A  ]| that$3$ I expect it will$1$; I do not look$1$ upon$4$ him to$9$ be quite 
213:265,18[A  ]| the sort of man ~~ I do not altogether build upon$4$ his 
213:265,19[A  ]| steadiness or constancy. ~~ His feelings are warm$2$, but I can 
213:265,20[A  ]| imagine them rather changeable. ~~ Every consideration of 
213:265,21[A  ]| the subject$0$, in$4$ short, makes me thankful that$3$ my happiness 
213:265,22[A  ]| is not more deeply involved. ~~ I shall do very well$5$ again 
213:265,23[A  ]| after$4$ a little while$0$ ~~ and then, it will$1$ be a good thing over; 
213:265,24[A  ]| for$3$ they say every*body is in$4$ love$0$ once in$4$ their lives$0$, and 
213:265,25[A  ]| I shall have been let off easily." 
213:265,26['  ]| When his letter to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston arrived, $EM#A$Emma had the 
213:265,27['  ]| perusal of it; and she read it with a degree of pleasure 
213:265,28['  ]| and admiration which$6#1$ made her at first shake$1$ her head$0$ 
213:265,29['  ]| over her own$2$ sensations, and think she had undervalued 
213:265,30['  ]| their strength. It was a long, well-written letter, giving 
213:265,31['  ]| the particulars of his journey and of his feelings, expressing 
213:265,32['  ]| all the affection, gratitude, and respect$0$ which$6#1$ was natural$2$ 
213:265,33['  ]| and honourable, and describing every*thing exterior and 
213:265,34['  ]| local that$6#1$ could be supposed attractive, with spirit and 
213:265,35['  ]| precision. No$2$ suspicious flourishes now of apology or 
213:265,36['  ]| concern$0$; it was the language of real feelings towards 
213:265,37['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; and the transition from Highbury to$4$ 
213:265,38['  ]| Enscombe, the contrast between the places$0$ in$4$ some of the 
213:266,01['  ]| first blessings of social life was just$5$ enough touched on$5$ to$9$ 
213:266,02['  ]| shew$1$ how keenly it was felt, and how much more might 
213:266,03['  ]| have been said but for$4$ the restraints of propriety. ~~ 
213:266,03@a   | The 
213:266,04@a   | charm$0$ of her own$2$ name$0$ was not wanting. \$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse\ 
213:266,05@a   | appeared more than once, and never without a something 
213:266,06@a   | of pleasing connection, either a compliment$0$ to$4$ her taste, 
213:266,07@a   | or a remembrance of what she had said; 
213:266,07['  ]| and in$4$ the very 
213:266,08['  ]| last$0$ time of its meeting her eye, unadorned as it was by$4$ 
213:266,09['  ]| any such broad wreath of gallantry, she yet could discern 
213:266,10['  ]| the effect$0$ of her influence$0$ and acknowledge the greatest 
213:266,11['  ]| compliment$0$ perhaps of all conveyed. Compressed into 
213:266,12['  ]| the very lowest vacant corner were these words ~~ 
213:266,12[E  ]| "I had 
213:266,13[E  ]| not a spare$2$ moment on$4$ Tuesday, as you know, for$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's 
213:266,14[E  ]| beautiful little friend. Pray make$1$ my 
213:266,15[E  ]| excuses and adieus to$4$ her." 
213:266,15@a   | This, 
213:266,15['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not doubt$1$, 
213:266,16@a   | was all for$4$ herself. $EM#M$Harriet was remembered only from 
213:266,17@a   | being$1$ \her\ friend. 
213:266,17['  ]| His information and prospects as to$4$ 
213:266,18['  ]| Enscombe were neither worse nor better than had been 
213:266,19['  ]| anticipated; $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill was recovering, and he dared 
213:266,20['  ]| not yet, even$5$ in$4$ his own$2$ imagination, fix a time for$4$ coming 
213:266,21['  ]| to$4$ Randalls again. 
213:266,22['  ]| Gratifying, however, and stimulative as was the letter 
213:266,23['  ]| in$4$ the material$2$ part$0$, its sentiments, she yet found, when 
213:266,24['  ]| it was folded up$5$ and returned to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, that$3$ it had 
213:266,25['  ]| not added any lasting warmth, that$3$ she could still$5$ do 
213:266,26['  ]| without the writer, and that$3$ he must learn to$9$ do without 
213:266,27['  ]| her. Her intentions were unchanged. Her resolution of 
213:266,28['  ]| refusal only grew more interesting by$4$ the addition of 
213:266,29['  ]| a scheme$0$ for$4$ his subsequent consolation and happiness. 
213:266,30['  ]| His recollection of $EM#M$Harriet, and the words which$6#1$ clothed 
213:266,31['  ]| it, the 
213:266,31[E  ]| "beautiful little friend," 
213:266,31['  ]| suggested to$4$ her the idea 
213:266,32['  ]| of $EM#M$Harriet's succeeding her in$4$ his affections. 
213:266,32@a   | Was it impossible? ~~ 
213:266,33@a   | No$7$, ~~ $EM#M$Harriet undoubtedly was greatly his inferior 
213:266,34@a   | in$4$ understanding; but he had been very much struck 
213:266,35@a   | with the loveliness of her face$0$ and the warm$2$ simplicity of 
213:266,36@a   | her manner; and all the probabilities of circumstance and 
213:266,37@a   | connection were in$4$ her favour$0$. ~~ For$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, it would be 
213:266,38@a   | advantageous and delightful indeed. 
213:267,01[A  ]| "I must not dwell upon$4$ it," 
213:267,01['  ]| said she. ~~ 
213:267,01[A  ]| "I must not 
213:267,02[A  ]| think of it. I know the danger of indulging such speculations. 
213:267,03[A  ]| But stranger$2$ things have happened; and when we 
213:267,04[A  ]| cease to$9$ care$1$ for$4$ each other as we do now, it will$1$ be the 
213:267,05[A  ]| means$0$ of confirming us in$4$ that$6#2$ sort of true disinterested 
213:267,06[A  ]| friendship which$6#1$ I can already look$1$ forward$5$ to$4$ with 
213:267,07[A  ]| pleasure." 
213:267,08['  ]| It was well$5$ to$9$ have a comfort$0$ in$4$ store on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's 
213:267,09['  ]| behalf, though it might be wise to$9$ let the fancy$0$ touch$1$ it 
213:267,10['  ]| seldom; for$3$ evil in$4$ that$6#2$ quarter$0#2$ was at hand$0$. As 
$EM#E$Frank*Churchill's 
213:267,11['  ]| arrival had succeeded $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's engagement 
213:267,12['  ]| in$4$ the conversation of Highbury, as the latest interest$0$ had 
213:267,13['  ]| entirely born$1#2$ down$5$ the first, so$3$ now upon$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's 
213:267,14['  ]| disappearance, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's concerns$0$ were assuming the 
213:267,15['  ]| most irresistible form$0$. ~~ His wedding-day was named. He 
213:267,16['  ]| would soon be among them again; $EM#H$Mr%*Elton and his 
213:267,17['  ]| bride. There was hardly time to$9$ talk$1$ over the first letter 
213:267,18['  ]| from Enscombe before$3$ "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton and his bride" was in$4$ 
213:267,19['  ]| every*body's mouth, and $EM#E$Frank*Churchill was forgotten. 
213:267,20['  ]| $EM#A$Emma grew sick at the sound$0$. She had had three weeks 
213:267,21['  ]| of happy exemption from $EM#H$Mr%*Elton; and $EM#M$Harriet's mind$0$, 
213:267,22['  ]| she had been willing to$9$ hope$1$, had been lately gaining 
213:267,23['  ]| strength. With $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's ball$0#2$ in$4$ view$0$ at least, there 
213:267,24['  ]| had been a great deal$0$ of insensibility to$4$ other things; but 
213:267,25['  ]| it was now too$5#1$ evident that$3$ she had not attained such 
213:267,26['  ]| a state$0$ of composure as could stand$1$ against the actual 
213:267,27['  ]| approach$0$ ~~ new carriage, bell ringing and all. 
213:267,28['  ]| Poor $EM#M$Harriet was in$4$ a flutter of spirits which$6#1$ required 
213:267,29['  ]| all the reasonings and soothings and attentions of every 
213:267,30['  ]| kind$0$ that$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma could give. $EM#A$Emma felt that$3$ she could 
213:267,31['  ]| not do too$5#1$ much for$4$ her, that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet had a right$0$ to$4$ all her 
213:267,32['  ]| ingenuity and all her patience; but it was heavy work$0$ to$9$ 
213:267,33['  ]| be for*ever convincing without producing any effect$0$, for*ever 
213:267,34['  ]| agreed to$5$, without being$1$ able to$9$ make$1$ their opinions 
213:267,35['  ]| the same. $EM#M$Harriet listened submissively, and said 
213:267,35[M  ]| "it 
213:267,36[M  ]| was very true ~~ it was just$5$ as $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse described ~~ 
213:267,37[M  ]| it was not worth*while to$9$ think about$4$ them ~~ and she 
213:267,38[M  ]| would not think about$4$ them any longer" ~~ 
213:267,38['  ]| but no$2$ change$0$ 
213:268,01['  ]| of subject$0$ could avail, and the next half hour saw her as 
213:268,02['  ]| anxious and restless about$4$ the $EM#H1$Eltons as before$5$. ~~ At last$0$ 
213:268,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma attacked her on$4$ another ground. 
213:268,04[A  ]| "Your allowing yourself to$9$ be so$5#1$ occupied and so$5#1$ 
213:268,05[A  ]| unhappy about$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's marrying, $EM#M$Harriet, is the 
213:268,06[A  ]| strongest reproach$0$ you can make$1$ \me\. You could not give 
213:268,07[A  ]| me a greater reproof for$4$ the mistake$0$ I fell into. It was all 
213:268,08[A  ]| my doing, I know. I have not forgotten it, I assure you. ~~ 
213:268,09[A  ]| Deceived myself, I did very miserably deceive you ~~ and 
213:268,10[A  ]| it will$1$ be a painful reflection to$4$ me for*ever. Do not 
213:268,11[A  ]| imagine me in$4$ danger of forgetting it." 
213:268,12['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet felt this too$5#1$ much to$9$ utter$1$ more than a few 
213:268,13['  ]| words of eager exclamation. $EM#A$Emma continued, 
213:268,14[A  ]| "I have not said, exert yourself $EM#M$Harriet for$4$ my sake; 
213:268,15[A  ]| think less, talk$1$ less of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton for$4$ my sake; because 
213:268,16[A  ]| for$4$ your own$2$ sake rather, I would wish$1$ it to$9$ be done, for$4$ 
213:268,17[A  ]| the sake of what is more important than my comfort$0$, 
213:268,18[A  ]| a habit of self-command in$4$ you, a consideration of what 
213:268,19[A  ]| is your duty, an attention to$4$ propriety, an endeavour$0$ to$9$ 
213:268,20[A  ]| avoid the suspicions of others, to$9$ save$1$ your health and 
213:268,21[A  ]| credit$0$, and restore your tranquillity. These are the 
213:268,22[A  ]| motives which$6#1$ I have been pressing on$4$ you. They are 
213:268,23[A  ]| very important ~~ and sorry I am that$3$ you cannot feel them 
213:268,24[A  ]| sufficiently to$9$ act$1$ upon$4$ them. My being$1$ saved from pain$0$ 
213:268,25[A  ]| is a very secondary consideration. I want$1$ you to$9$ save$1$ 
213:268,26[A  ]| yourself from greater pain$0$. Perhaps I may$1$ sometimes 
213:268,27[A  ]| have felt that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet would not forget what was due$2$ ~~ or 
213:268,28[A  ]| rather what would be kind$2$ by$4$ me." 
213:268,29['  ]| This appeal to$4$ her affections did more than all the rest$0#1$. 
213:268,30['  ]| The idea of wanting gratitude and consideration for$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
213:268,31['  ]| whom$6#1$ she really loved extremely, made her 
213:268,32['  ]| wretched for$4$ a while$0$, and when the violence of grief was 
213:268,33['  ]| comforted away, still$5$ remained powerful enough to$9$ prompt$1$ 
213:268,34['  ]| to$4$ what was right$2#1$ and support$1$ her in$4$ it very tolerably. 
213:268,35[M  ]| "You, who$6#1$ have been the best friend I ever had in$4$ my 
213:268,36[M  ]| life ~~ Want$1$ gratitude to$4$ you! ~~ Nobody is equal$2$ to$4$ you! ~~ 
213:268,37[M  ]| I care$1$ for$4$ nobody as I do for$4$ you! ~~ Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
213:268,38[M  ]| how ungrateful I have been!" 
213:269,01['  ]| Such expressions, assisted as they were by$4$ every*thing 
213:269,02['  ]| that$6#1$ look$0$ and manner could do, made $EM#A$Emma feel that$3$ she 
213:269,03['  ]| had never loved $EM#M$Harriet so$5#1$ well$5$, nor valued her affection 
213:269,04['  ]| so$5#1$ highly before$5$. 
213:269,05[A  ]| "There is no$2$ charm$0$ equal$2$ to$4$ tenderness of heart," 
213:269,05['  ]| said 
213:269,06['  ]| she afterwards to$4$ herself. 
213:269,06[A  ]| "There is nothing to$9$ be compared 
213:269,07[A  ]| to$4$ it. Warmth and tenderness of heart, with an 
213:269,08[A  ]| affectionate, open$2$ manner, will$1$ beat all the clearness of 
213:269,09[A  ]| head$0$ in$4$ the world, for$4$ attraction. I am sure it will$1$. It is 
213:269,10[A  ]| tenderness of heart which$6#1$ makes my dear$2#1$ father so$5#1$ 
213:269,11[A  ]| generally beloved ~~ which$6#1$ gives $EM#L$Isabella all her popularity. ~~ 
213:269,12[A  ]| I have it not ~~ but I know how to$9$ prize$1$ and 
213:269,13[A  ]| respect$1$ it. ~~ $EM#M$Harriet is my superior in$4$ all the charm$0$ and 
213:269,14[A  ]| all the felicity it gives. Dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet! ~~ I would not 
213:269,15[A  ]| change$1$ you for$4$ the clearest-headed, longest-sighted, best-judging 
213:269,16[A  ]| female$0$ breathing. Oh! the coldness of a $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax! ~~ 
213:269,17[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet is worth a hundred such. ~~ And for$4$ 
213:269,18[A  ]| a wife ~~ a sensible$2#2$ man's wife ~~ it is invaluable. I mention$1$ 
213:269,19[A  ]| no$2$ names; but happy the man who$6#1$ changes$1$ $EM#A$Emma for$4$ 
213:269,20[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet!" 
214:270,01['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was first seen at church: but though 
214:270,02['  ]| devotion might be interrupted, curiosity could not be 
214:270,03['  ]| satisfied by$4$ a bride in$4$ a pew, and it must be left for$4$ the 
214:270,04['  ]| visits in$4$ form$0$ which$6#1$ were then to$9$ be paid, to$9$ settle whether 
214:270,05['  ]| she were very pretty$2$ indeed, or only rather pretty$2$, or not 
214:270,06['  ]| pretty$2$ at all. 
214:270,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had feelings, less of curiosity than of pride or 
214:270,08['  ]| propriety, to$9$ make$1$ her resolve$1$ on$4$ not being$1$ the last$0$ to$9$ pay$1$ 
214:270,09['  ]| her respects; and she made a point$0$ of $EM#M$Harriet's going 
214:270,10['  ]| with her, that$3$ the worst of the business might be gone 
214:270,11['  ]| through$5$ as soon as possible. 
214:270,12['  ]| She could not enter the house again, could not be in$4$ the 
214:270,13['  ]| same room to$4$ which$6#1$ she had with such vain artifice 
214:270,14['  ]| retreated three months ago, to$9$ lace$1$ up$5$ her boot, without 
214:270,15['  ]| \recollecting\. 
214:270,15@a   | A thousand vexatious thoughts would recur. 
214:270,16@a   | Compliments, charades, and horrible blunders; and it was 
214:270,17@a   | not to$9$ be supposed that$3$ poor $EM#M$Harriet should not be 
214:270,18@a   | recollecting too$5#2$; but she behaved very well$5$, and was only 
214:270,19@a   | rather pale and silent. 
214:270,19['  ]| The visit$0$ was of course$8$ short; and 
214:270,20['  ]| there was so$5#1$ much embarrassment and occupation of mind$0$ 
214:270,21['  ]| to$9$ shorten it, that$3$ $EM#A$Emma would not allow herself entirely 
214:270,22['  ]| to$9$ form$1$ an opinion of the lady, and on$4$ no$2$ account$0$ to$9$ give 
214:270,23['  ]| one, beyond$4$ the nothing-meaning terms of being$1$ 
214:270,23[A  ]| "elegantly 
214:270,24[A  ]| dressed, and very pleasing." 
214:270,25@a   | She did not really like$1$ her. She would not be in$4$ a hurry$0$ 
214:270,26@a   | to$9$ find fault, but she suspected that$3$ there was no$2$ elegance; 
214:270,27@a   | ~~ ease$0$, but not elegance. ~~ She was almost sure that$3$ for$4$ 
214:270,28@a   | a young woman, a stranger$0$, a bride, there was too$5#1$ much 
214:270,29@a   | ease$0$. Her person was rather good; her face$0$ not unpretty; 
214:270,30@a   | but neither feature, nor air, nor voice, nor manner, were 
214:270,31@a   | elegant. 
214:270,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ at least it would turn$1$ out$5$ so$5#2$. 
214:270,32@a   | As for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, his manners did not appear ~~ but no$7$, 
214:271,01@a   | she would not permit a hasty or a witty word from herself 
214:271,02@a   | about$4$ his manners. It was an awkward ceremony at any 
214:271,03@a   | time to$9$ be receiving wedding-visits, and a man had need$0$ 
214:271,04@a   | be all grace$0$ to$9$ acquit himself well$5$ through$4$ it. The woman 
214:271,05@a   | was better off; she might have the assistance of fine 
214:271,06@a   | clothes, and the privilege of bashfulness, but the man had 
214:271,07@a   | only his own$2$ good sense to$9$ depend on$4$; and when she 
214:271,08@a   | considered how peculiarly unlucky poor $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was in$4$ 
214:271,09@a   | being$1$ in$4$ the same room at once with the woman he had 
214:271,10@a   | just$5$ married, the woman he had wanted to$9$ marry, and the 
214:271,11@a   | woman whom$6#1$ he had been expected to$9$ marry, she must 
214:271,12@a   | allow him to$9$ have the right$0$ to$9$ look$1$ as little wise, and to$9$ be 
214:271,13@a   | as much affectedly, and as little really easy as could be. 
214:271,14[M  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
214:271,14['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet when they had 
214:271,15['  ]| quitted the house, and after$4$ waiting in$4$ vain for$4$ her friend 
214:271,16['  ]| to$9$ begin; 
214:271,16[M  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
214:271,16['  ]| (with a gentle sigh$0$,) 
214:271,17[M  ]| what do you think of her? ~~ Is not she very charming?" 
214:271,18['  ]| There was a little hesitation in$4$ $EM#A$Emma's answer$0$. 
214:271,19[A  ]| "Oh! yes ~~ very ~~ a very pleasing young woman." 
214:271,20[M  ]| "I think her beautiful, quite beautiful." 
214:271,21[A  ]| "Very nicely dressed, indeed; a remarkably elegant 
214:271,22[A  ]| gown." 
214:271,23[M  ]| "I am not at all surprized that$3$ he should have fallen 
214:271,24[M  ]| in$4$ love$0$." 
214:271,25[A  ]| "Oh! no$7$ ~~ there is nothing to$9$ surprize$1$ one at all. ~~ 
214:271,26[A  ]| A pretty$2$ fortune; and she came in$5$ his way." 
214:271,27[M  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say," 
214:271,27['  ]| returned $EM#M$Harriet, sighing again, 
214:271,27[M  ]| "I dare$1#2$ 
214:271,28[M  ]| say she was very much attached to$4$ him." 
214:271,29[A  ]| "Perhaps she might; but it is not every man's fate 
214:271,30[A  ]| to$9$ marry the woman who$6#1$ loves him best. $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins 
214:271,31[A  ]| perhaps wanted a home, and thought$1$ this the best offer$0$ 
214:271,32[A  ]| she was likely to$9$ have." 
214:271,33[M  ]| "Yes," 
214:271,33['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet earnestly, 
214:271,33[M  ]| "and well$5$ she might, 
214:271,34[M  ]| nobody could ever have a better. Well$7$, I wish$1$ them 
214:271,35[M  ]| happy with all my heart. And now, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
214:271,36[M  ]| I do not think I shall mind$1$ seeing them again. He is just$5$ 
214:271,37[M  ]| as superior as ever; ~~ but being$1$ married, you know, it is 
214:271,38[M  ]| quite a different thing. No$7$, indeed, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you 
214:272,01[M  ]| need$1$ not be afraid; I can sit and admire him now without 
214:272,02[M  ]| any great misery. To$9$ know that$3$ he has not thrown 
214:272,03[M  ]| himself away, is such a comfort$0$! ~~ She does seem a charming 
214:272,04[M  ]| young woman, just$5$ what he deserves. Happy creature! 
214:272,05[M  ]| He called her 
214:272,05@h   | ""$EM#I$Augusta"" 
214:272,05[M  ]| How delightful!" 
214:272,06['  ]| When the visit$0$ was returned, $EM#A$Emma made up$5$ her mind$0$. 
214:272,07['  ]| She could then see more and judge$1$ better. From $EM#M$Harriet's 
214:272,08['  ]| happening not to$9$ be at Hartfield, and her father's being$1$ 
214:272,09['  ]| present$5$ to$9$ engage $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, she had a quarter$0#1$ of an hour 
214:272,10['  ]| of the lady's conversation to$4$ herself, and could composedly 
214:272,11['  ]| attend to$4$ her; and the quarter$0#1$ of an hour quite 
214:272,12['  ]| convinced her that$3$ 
214:272,12@a   | $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was a vain woman, extremely 
214:272,13@a   | well$5$ satisfied with herself, and thinking much of 
214:272,14@a   | her own$2$ importance; that$3$ she meant to$9$ shine and be very 
214:272,15@a   | superior, but with manners which$6#1$ had been formed in$4$ 
214:272,16@a   | a bad school, pert and familiar; that$3$ all her notions were 
214:272,17@a   | drawn from one set$0$ of people, and one style of living; that$3$ 
214:272,18@a   | if not foolish she was ignorant, and that$3$ her society would 
214:272,19@a   | certainly do $EM#H$Mr%*Elton no$2$ good. 
214:272,20@a   | $EM#M$Harriet would have been a better match$0$. If not wise 
214:272,21@a   | or refined herself, she would have connected him with 
214:272,22@a   | those who$6#1$ were; but $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins, it might be fairly 
214:272,23@a   | supposed from her easy conceit, had been the best of her 
214:272,24@a   | own$2$ set$0$. The rich brother-in-law near$4$ Bristol was the 
214:272,25@a   | pride of the alliance, and his place$0$ and his carriages were 
214:272,26@a   | the pride of him. 
214:272,27['  ]| The very first subject$0$ after$4$ being$1$ seated was Maple*Grove, 
214:272,28[I  ]| "My brother $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling's seat" ~~ 
214:272,28['  ]| a comparison 
214:272,29['  ]| of Hartfield to$4$ Maple*Grove. The grounds of Hartfield 
214:272,30['  ]| were small, but neat and pretty$2$; and the house was 
214:272,31['  ]| modern and well-built. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton seemed most favourably 
214:272,32['  ]| impressed by$4$ the size of the room, the entrance, and 
214:272,33['  ]| all that$6#1$ she could see or imagine. 
214:272,33[I  ]| "Very like$4$ Maple*Grove 
214:272,34[I  ]| indeed! ~~ She was quite struck by$4$ the likeness! ~~ That$6#2$ 
214:272,35[I  ]| room was the very shape$0$ and size of the morning-room at 
214:272,36[I  ]| Maple*Grove; her sister's favourite$2$ room." ~~ 
214:272,36['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
214:272,37['  ]| was appealed to$5$. ~~ 
214:272,37[I  ]| "Was not it astonishingly like$4$? ~~ She 
214:272,38[I  ]| could really almost fancy$1$ herself at Maple*Grove." 
214:273,01[I  ]| "And the staircase ~~ You know, as I came in$5$, I observed 
214:273,02[I  ]| how very like$4$ the staircase was; placed exactly in$4$ the 
214:273,03[I  ]| same part$0$ of the house. I really could not help$1$ exclaiming! 
214:273,04[I  ]| I assure you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, it is very delightful 
214:273,05[I  ]| to$4$ me, to$9$ be reminded of a place$0$ I am so$5#1$ extremely partial 
214:273,06[I  ]| to$4$ as Maple*Grove. I have spent so$5#1$ many happy months 
214:273,07[I  ]| there! 
214:273,07['  ]| (with a little sigh$0$ of sentiment). 
214:273,07[I  ]| A charming place$0$, 
214:273,08[I  ]| undoubtedly. Every*body who$6#1$ sees it is struck by$4$ its 
214:273,09[I  ]| beauty; but to$4$ me, it has been quite a home. Whenever 
214:273,10[I  ]| you are transplanted, like$4$ me, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you will$1$ 
214:273,11[I  ]| understand how very delightful it is to$9$ meet$1$ with any*thing 
214:273,12[I  ]| at all like$4$ what one has left behind. I always say this is 
214:273,13[I  ]| quite one of the evils of matrimony." 
214:273,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma made as slight$2$ a reply$0$ as she could; but it was 
214:273,15['  ]| fully sufficient for$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, who$6#1$ only wanted to$9$ be 
214:273,16['  ]| talking herself. 
214:273,17[I  ]| "So$5#1$ extremely like$4$ Maple*Grove! And it is not merely 
214:273,18[I  ]| the house ~~ the grounds, I assure you, as far as I could 
214:273,19[I  ]| observe, are strikingly like$4$. The laurels at Maple*Grove 
214:273,20[I  ]| are in$4$ the same profusion as here, and stand$1$ very much in$4$ 
214:273,21[I  ]| the same way ~~ just$5$ across$4$ the lawn; and I had a glimpse 
214:273,22[I  ]| of a fine large tree, with a bench round$4$ it, which$6#1$ put me 
214:273,23[I  ]| so$5#1$ exactly in$4$ mind$0$! My brother and sister will$1$ be enchanted 
214:273,24[I  ]| with this place$0$. People who$6#1$ have extensive 
214:273,25[I  ]| grounds themselves are always pleased with any*thing in$4$ 
214:273,26[I  ]| the same style." 
214:273,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma doubted the truth of this sentiment. She had 
214:273,28['  ]| a great idea that$3$ 
214:273,28@a   | people who$6#1$ had extensive grounds 
214:273,29@a   | themselves cared very little for$4$ the extensive grounds of 
214:273,30@a   | any*body else; but it was not worth*while to$9$ attack$1$ 
214:273,31@a   | an error so$5#1$ double-dyed, 
214:273,31['  ]| and therefore only said in$4$ 
214:273,32['  ]| reply$0$, 
214:273,33[A  ]| "When you have seen more of this country, I am afraid 
214:273,34[A  ]| you will$1$ think you have over-rated Hartfield. Surry is 
214:273,35[A  ]| full of beauties." 
214:273,36[I  ]| "Oh! yes, I am quite aware of that$6#2$. It is the garden 
214:273,37[I  ]| of England, you know. Surry is the garden of England." 
214:273,38[A  ]| "Yes; but we must not rest$1$ our claims on$4$ that$6#2$ distinction. 
214:274,01[A  ]| Many counties, I believe, are called the garden of 
214:274,02[A  ]| England, as well$5$ as Surry." 
214:274,03[I  ]| "No$7$, I fancy$1$ not," 
214:274,03['  ]| replied $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, with a most 
214:274,04['  ]| satisfied smile$0$. 
214:274,04[I  ]| "I never heard any county but Surry 
214:274,05[I  ]| called so$5#2$." 
214:274,06['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was silenced. 
214:274,07[I  ]| "My brother and sister have promised us a visit$0$ in$4$ the 
214:274,08[I  ]| spring$0$, or summer at farthest," 
214:274,08['  ]| continued $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton; 
214:274,09[I  ]| "and that$6#2$ will$1$ be our time for$4$ exploring. While$3$ they are 
214:274,10[I  ]| with us, we shall explore a great deal$0$, I dare$1#2$ say. They 
214:274,11[I  ]| will$1$ have their barouche-landau, of course$8$, which$6#1$ holds 
214:274,12[I  ]| four perfectly; and therefore, without saying any*thing 
214:274,13[I  ]| of \our\ carriage, we should be able to$9$ explore the different 
214:274,14[I  ]| beauties extremely well$5$. They would hardly come in$4$ 
214:274,15[I  ]| their chaise, I think, at that$6#2$ season of the year. Indeed, 
214:274,16[I  ]| when the time draws on$5$, I shall decidedly recommend 
214:274,17[I  ]| their bringing the barouche-landau; it will$1$ be so$5#1$ very 
214:274,18[I  ]| much preferable. When people come into a beautiful 
214:274,19[I  ]| country of this sort, you know, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, one 
214:274,20[I  ]| naturally wishes$1$ them to$9$ see as much as possible; and 
214:274,21[I  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling is extremely fond of exploring. We explored 
214:274,22[I  ]| to$4$ King's-Weston twice last$2$ summer, in$4$ that$6#2$ way, most 
214:274,23[I  ]| delightfully, just$5$ after$4$ their first having the barouche-landau. 
214:274,24[I  ]| You have many parties of that$6#2$ kind$0$ here, 
214:274,25[I  ]| I suppose, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, every summer?" 
214:274,26[A  ]| "No$7$; not immediately here. We are rather out$5$ of 
214:274,27[A  ]| distance$0$ of the very striking beauties which$6#1$ attract the 
214:274,28[A  ]| sort of parties you speak of; and we are a very quiet$2$ set$0$ 
214:274,29[A  ]| of people, I believe; more disposed to$9$ stay$1$ at home than 
214:274,30[A  ]| engage in$4$ schemes of pleasure." 
214:274,31[I  ]| "Ah! there is nothing like$4$ staying at home, for$4$ real 
214:274,32[I  ]| comfort$0$. Nobody can be more devoted to$4$ home than 
214:274,33[I  ]| I am. I was quite a proverb for$4$ it at Maple*Grove. Many 
214:274,34[I  ]| a time has $EM#V$Selina said, when she has been going to$4$ Bristol, 
214:274,35@v   | ""I really cannot get this girl to$9$ move$1$ from the house. 
214:274,36@v   | I absolutely must go in$5$ by$4$ myself, though I hate being$1$ 
214:274,37@v   | stuck up$5$ in$4$ the barouche-landau without a companion; 
214:274,38@v   | but $EM#I$Augusta, I believe, with her own$2$ good*will, would 
214:275,01@v   | never stir beyond$4$ the park paling."" 
214:275,01[I  ]| Many a time she has 
214:275,02[I  ]| said so$5#2$; and yet I am no$2$ advocate for$4$ entire seclusion. 
214:275,03[I  ]| I think, on$4$ the contrary, when people shut themselves up$5$ 
214:275,04[I  ]| entirely from society, it is a very bad thing; and that$3$ it 
214:275,05[I  ]| is much more advisable to$9$ mix in$4$ the world in$4$ a proper 
214:275,06[I  ]| degree, without living in$4$ it either too$5#1$ much or too$5#1$ little. 
214:275,07[I  ]| I perfectly understand your situation, however, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse ~~ 
214:275,08['  ]| (looking towards $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse) ~~ 
214:275,08[I  ]| Your 
214:275,09[I  ]| father's state$0$ of health must be a great drawback. Why 
214:275,10[I  ]| does not he try Bath$0#1$? ~~ Indeed he should. Let me 
214:275,11[I  ]| recommend Bath$0#1$ to$4$ you. I assure you I have no$2$ doubt$0$ 
214:275,12[I  ]| of its doing $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse good." 
214:275,13[A  ]| "My father tried it more than once, formerly; but 
214:275,14[A  ]| without receiving any benefit; and $EM#W$Mr%*Perry, whose$6#1$ 
214:275,15[A  ]| name$0$, I dare$1#2$ say, is not unknown to$4$ you, does not conceive 
214:275,16[A  ]| it would be at all more likely to$9$ be useful now." 
214:275,17[I  ]| "Ah! that's a great pity$0$; for$3$ I assure you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
214:275,18[I  ]| where the waters do agree, it is quite wonderful the 
214:275,19[I  ]| relief they give. In$4$ my Bath$0#1$ life, I have seen such 
214:275,20[I  ]| instances of it! And it is so$5#1$ cheerful a place$0$, that$3$ it could 
214:275,21[I  ]| not fail of being$1$ of use$0$ to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's spirits, which$6#1$, 
214:275,22[I  ]| I understand, are sometimes much depressed. And as to$4$ 
214:275,23[I  ]| its recommendations to$4$ \you\, I fancy$1$ I need$1$ not take much 
214:275,24[I  ]| pains to$9$ dwell on$4$ them. The advantages of Bath$0#1$ to$4$ the 
214:275,25[I  ]| young are pretty$5$ generally understood. It would be 
214:275,26[I  ]| a charming introduction for$4$ you, who$6#1$ have lived so$5#1$ 
214:275,27[I  ]| secluded a life; and I could immediately secure$1$ you some 
214:275,28[I  ]| of the best society in$4$ the place$0$. A line from me would 
214:275,29[I  ]| bring you a little host of acquaintance; and my particular 
214:275,30[I  ]| friend, $EM#ZL$Mrs%*Partridge, the lady I have always resided with 
214:275,31[I  ]| when in$4$ Bath$0#1$, would be most happy to$9$ shew$1$ you any 
214:275,32[I  ]| attentions, and would be the very person for$4$ you to$9$ go 
214:275,33[I  ]| into public$0$ with." 
214:275,34['  ]| It was as much as $EM#A$Emma could bear$1$, without being$1$ 
214:275,35['  ]| impolite. 
214:275,35@a   | The idea of her being$1$ indebted to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
214:275,36@a   | for$4$ what was called an \introduction\ ~~ of her going into 
214:275,37@a   | public$0$ under the auspices of a friend of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's, 
214:275,38@a   | probably some vulgar, dashing widow, who$6#1$, with the 
214:276,01@a   | help$0$ of a boarder, just$5$ made a shift$0$ to$9$ live! ~~ The 
214:276,02@a   | dignity of $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, of Hartfield, was sunk 
214:276,03@a   | indeed! 
214:276,04['  ]| She restrained herself, however, from any of the 
214:276,05['  ]| reproofs she could have given, and only thanked $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
214:276,06['  ]| coolly; 
214:276,06[A  ]| "but their going to$4$ Bath$0#1$ was quite out$5$ of the 
214:276,07[A  ]| question$0$; and she was not perfectly convinced that$3$ the 
214:276,08[A  ]| place$0$ might suit$1$ her better than her father." 
214:276,08['  ]| And then, 
214:276,09['  ]| to$9$ prevent further outrage and indignation, changed the 
214:276,10['  ]| subject$0$ directly: 
214:276,11[A  ]| "I do not ask whether you are musical, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. 
214:276,12[A  ]| Upon$4$ these occasions, a lady's character generally 
214:276,13[A  ]| precedes her; and Highbury has long known that$3$ you 
214:276,14[A  ]| are a superior performer." 
214:276,15[I  ]| "Oh! no$7$, indeed; I must protest against any such 
214:276,16[I  ]| idea. A superior performer! ~~ very far from it, I assure 
214:276,17[I  ]| you. Consider from how partial a quarter$0#2$ your information 
214:276,18[I  ]| came. I am doatingly fond of music ~~ passionately 
214:276,19[I  ]| fond; ~~ and my friends say I am not entirely devoid of 
214:276,20[I  ]| taste; but as to$4$ any*thing else, upon$4$ my honour$0$ my 
214:276,21[I  ]| performance is \mediocre\ to$4$ the last$2$ degree. You, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
214:276,22[I  ]| I well$5$ know, play$1$ delightfully. I assure you 
214:276,23[I  ]| it has been the greatest satisfaction, comfort$0$, and delight$0$ 
214:276,24[I  ]| to$4$ me, to$9$ hear what a musical society I am got into. 
214:276,25[I  ]| I absolutely cannot do without music. It is a necessary 
214:276,26[I  ]| of life to$4$ me; and having always been used to$4$ a very 
214:276,27[I  ]| musical society, both at Maple*Grove and in$4$ Bath$0#1$, it would 
214:276,28[I  ]| have been a most serious$2$ sacrifice$0$. I honestly said as 
214:276,29[I  ]| much to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*E% when he was speaking of my future home, 
214:276,30[I  ]| and expressing his fears lest the retirement of it should be 
214:276,31[I  ]| disagreeable; and the inferiority of the house too$5#2$ ~~ 
214:276,32[I  ]| knowing what I had been accustomed to$4$ ~~ of course$8$ he 
214:276,33[I  ]| was not wholly without apprehension. When he was 
214:276,34[I  ]| speaking of it in$4$ that$6#2$ way, I honestly said that$3$ \the\ \world\ 
214:276,35[I  ]| I could give up$5$ ~~ parties, balls, plays$0$ ~~ for$3$ I had no$2$ fear$0$ 
214:276,36[I  ]| of retirement. Blessed with so$5#1$ many resources within 
214:276,37[I  ]| myself, the world was not necessary to$4$ \me\. I could do 
214:276,38[I  ]| very well$5$ without it. To$4$ those who$6#1$ had no$2$ resources it 
214:277,01[I  ]| was a different thing; but my resources made me quite 
214:277,02[I  ]| independent. And as to$4$ smaller-sized rooms than I had 
214:277,03[I  ]| been used to$4$, I really could not give it a thought$0$. I hoped 
214:277,04[I  ]| I was perfectly equal$2$ to$4$ any sacrifice$0$ of that$6#2$ description. 
214:277,05[I  ]| Certainly I had been accustomed to$4$ every luxury at 
214:277,06[I  ]| Maple*Grove; but I did assure him that$3$ two carriages 
214:277,07[I  ]| were not necessary to$4$ my happiness, nor were spacious 
214:277,08[I  ]| apartments. ""But,"" said I, ""to$9$ be quite honest, I do not 
214:277,09[I  ]| think I can live without something of a musical society. 
214:277,10[I  ]| I condition$1$ for$4$ nothing else; but without music, life would 
214:277,11[I  ]| be a blank$0$ for$4$ me.""" 
214:277,12[A  ]| "We cannot suppose," 
214:277,12['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, smiling, 
214:277,12[A  ]| "that$3$ 
214:277,13[A  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton would hesitate to$9$ assure you of there being$1$ 
214:277,14[A  ]| a \very\ musical society in$4$ Highbury; and I hope$1$ you will$1$ 
214:277,15[A  ]| not find he has outstepped the truth more than may$1$ be 
214:277,16[A  ]| pardoned, in$4$ consideration of the motive." 
214:277,17[I  ]| "No$7$, indeed, I have no$2$ doubts$0$ at all on$4$ that$6#2$ head$0$. 
214:277,18[I  ]| I am delighted to$9$ find myself in$4$ such a circle. I hope$1$ we 
214:277,19[I  ]| shall have many sweet little concerts together. I think, 
214:277,20[I  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you and I must establish a musical 
214:277,21[I  ]| club, and have regular weekly meetings at your house, or 
214:277,22[I  ]| ours. Will$1$ not it be a good plan? If \we\ exert ourselves, 
214:277,23[I  ]| I think we shall not be long in$4$ want$0$ of allies. Something 
214:277,24[I  ]| of that$6#2$ nature would be particularly desirable for$4$ \me\, as 
214:277,25[I  ]| an inducement to$9$ keep me in$4$ practice$0$; for$3$ married 
214:277,26[I  ]| women, you know ~~ there is a sad story against them, in$4$ 
214:277,27[I  ]| general$0$. They are but too$5#1$ apt to$9$ give up$5$ music." 
214:277,28[A  ]| "But you, who$6#1$ are so$5#1$ extremely fond of it ~~ there can 
214:277,29[A  ]| be no$2$ danger, surely." 
214:277,30[I  ]| "I should hope$1$ not; but really when I look$1$ round$5$ 
214:277,31[I  ]| among my acquaintance, I tremble$1$. $EM#V$Selina has entirely 
214:277,32[I  ]| given up$5$ music ~~ never touches the instrument ~~ though 
214:277,33[I  ]| she played sweetly. And the same may$1$ be said of $EM#ZL1$Mrs%*Jeffereys ~~ 
214:277,34[I  ]| $EM#ZL1$Clara*Partridge, that$6#1$ was ~~ and of the two 
214:277,35[I  ]| $EM#ZJ$Milmans, now $EM#ZJ1$Mrs%*Bird and $EM#ZJ2$Mrs%*James*Cooper; and of 
214:277,36[I  ]| more than I can enumerate. Upon$4$ my word it is enough 
214:277,37[I  ]| to$9$ put one in$4$ a fright. I used to$9$ be quite angry with 
214:277,38[I  ]| $EM#V$Selina; but really I begin to$9$ comprehend that$3$ 
214:278,01[I  ]| a married woman has many things to$9$ call$1$ her attention. 
214:278,02[I  ]| I believe I was half an hour this morning shut up$5$ with my 
214:278,03[I  ]| housekeeper." 
214:278,04[A  ]| "But every*thing of that$6#2$ kind$0$," 
214:278,04['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
214:278,04[A  ]| "will$1$ soon 
214:278,05[A  ]| be in$4$ so$5#1$ regular a train ~~" 
214:278,06[I  ]| "Well$7$," 
214:278,06['  ]| said $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, laughing, 
214:278,06[I  ]| "we shall see." 
214:278,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, finding her so$5#1$ determined upon$4$ neglecting her 
214:278,08['  ]| music, had nothing more to$9$ say; and, after$4$ a moment's 
214:278,09['  ]| pause$0$, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton chose another subject$0$. 
214:278,10[I  ]| "We have been calling at Randalls," 
214:278,10['  ]| said she, 
214:278,10[I  ]| "and 
214:278,11[I  ]| found them both at home; and very pleasant people they 
214:278,12[I  ]| seem to$9$ be. I like$1$ them extremely. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston seems an 
214:278,13[I  ]| excellent creature ~~ quite a first-rate favourite$0$ with me 
214:278,14[I  ]| already, I assure you. And \she\ appears so$5#1$ truly good ~~ 
214:278,15[I  ]| there is something so$5#1$ motherly and kind-hearted about$4$ 
214:278,16[I  ]| her, that$3$ it wins upon$4$ one directly. She was your governess, 
214:278,17[I  ]| I think?" 
214:278,18['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was almost too$5#1$ much astonished to$9$ answer$1$; but 
214:278,19['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton hardly waited for$4$ the affirmative before$3$ she 
214:278,20['  ]| went on$5$. 
214:278,21[I  ]| "Having understood as much, I was rather astonished 
214:278,22[I  ]| to$9$ find her so$5#1$ very lady-like! But she is really quite the 
214:278,23[I  ]| gentlewoman." 
214:278,24[A  ]| "$EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's manners," 
214:278,24['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
214:278,24[A  ]| "were always 
214:278,25[A  ]| particularly good. Their propriety, simplicity, and 
214:278,26[A  ]| elegance, would make$1$ them the safest model for$4$ any young 
214:278,27[A  ]| woman." 
214:278,28[I  ]| "And who$6#2$ do you think came in$5$ while$3$ we were there?" 
214:278,29['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was quite at a loss. 
214:278,29@a   | The tone implied some old 
214:278,30@a   | acquaintance ~~ and how could she possibly guess$1$? 
214:278,31[I  ]| "$EM#B$Knightley!" 
214:278,31['  ]| continued $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton; ~~ 
214:278,31[I  ]| "$EM#B$Knightley 
214:278,32[I  ]| himself! ~~ Was not it lucky? ~~ for$3$, not being$1$ within when 
214:278,33[I  ]| he called the other day, I had never seen him before$5$; and 
214:278,34[I  ]| of course$8$, as so$5#1$ particular a friend of $EM#H$Mr%*E%'s, I had 
214:278,35[I  ]| a great curiosity. 
214:278,35@h   | ""My friend $EM#B$Knightley"" 
214:278,35[I  ]| had been so$5#1$ 
214:278,36[I  ]| often mentioned, that$3$ I was really impatient to$9$ see him; 
214:278,37[I  ]| and I must do my caro*sposo the justice to$9$ say that$3$ he 
214:278,38[I  ]| need$1$ not be ashamed of his friend. $EM#B$Knightley is quite the 
214:279,01[I  ]| gentleman. I like$1$ him very much. Decidedly, I think, 
214:279,02[I  ]| a very gentleman-like man." 
214:279,03['  ]| Happily it was now time to$9$ be gone. They were off; 
214:279,04['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma could breathe. 
214:279,05[A  ]| "Insufferable woman!" 
214:279,05['  ]| was her immediate exclamation. 
214:279,06[A  ]| "Worse than I had supposed. Absolutely insufferable! 
214:279,07[A  ]| $EM#B$Knightley! ~~ I could not have believed it. $EM#B$Knightley! ~~ 
214:279,08[A  ]| never seen him in$4$ her life before$5$, and call$1$ him 
214:279,09[A  ]| $EM#B$Knightley! ~~ and discover that$3$ he is a gentleman! A little 
214:279,10[A  ]| upstart$2$, vulgar being$0$, with her $EM#H$Mr%*E%, and her \caro*sposo\, 
214:279,11[A  ]| and her resources, and all her airs of pert pretension and 
214:279,12[A  ]| under-bred finery. Actually to$9$ discover that$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
214:279,13[A  ]| is a gentleman! I doubt$1$ whether he will$1$ return$1$ the 
214:279,14[A  ]| compliment$0$, and discover her to$9$ be a lady. I could 
214:279,15[A  ]| not have believed it! And to$9$ propose that$3$ she and I should 
214:279,16[A  ]| unite to$9$ form$1$ a musical club! One would fancy$1$ we were 
214:279,17[A  ]| bosom friends! And $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston! ~~ Astonished that$3$ the 
214:279,18[A  ]| person who$6#1$ had brought me up$5$ should be a gentlewoman! 
214:279,19[A  ]| Worse and worse. I never met with her equal$0$. Much 
214:279,20[A  ]| beyond$4$ my hopes$0$. $EM#M$Harriet is disgraced by$4$ any comparison. 
214:279,21[A  ]| Oh! what would $EM#E$Frank*Churchill say to$4$ her, if he were 
214:279,22[A  ]| here? How angry and how diverted he would be! Ah! 
214:279,23[A  ]| there I am ~~ thinking of him directly. Always the first 
214:279,24[A  ]| person to$9$ be thought$1$ of! How I catch$1$ myself out$5$! $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
214:279,25[A  ]| comes as regularly into my mind$0$!" ~~ 
214:279,26['  ]| All this ran so$5#1$ glibly through$4$ her thoughts, that$3$ by$4$ the 
214:279,27['  ]| time her father had arranged himself, after$4$ the bustle$0$ of 
214:279,28['  ]| the $EM#H1$Eltons' departure, and was ready to$9$ speak, she was 
214:279,29['  ]| very tolerably capable of attending. 
214:279,30[P  ]| "Well$7$, my dear$2#1$," 
214:279,30['  ]| he deliberately began, 
214:279,30[P  ]| "considering 
214:279,31[P  ]| we never saw her before$5$, she seems a very pretty$2$ sort of 
214:279,32[P  ]| young lady; and I dare$1#2$ say she was very much pleased 
214:279,33[P  ]| with you. She speaks a little too$5#1$ quick$2$. A little quickness 
214:279,34[P  ]| of voice there is which$6#1$ rather hurts the ear. But I believe 
214:279,35[P  ]| I am nice; I do not like$1$ strange voices; and nobody 
214:279,36[P  ]| speaks like$4$ you and poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor. However, she 
214:279,37[P  ]| seems a very obliging, pretty-behaved young lady, and 
214:279,38[P  ]| no$2$ doubt$0$ will$1$ make$1$ him a very good wife. Though I think 
214:280,01[P  ]| he had better not have married. I made the best excuses 
214:280,02[P  ]| I could for$4$ not having been able to$9$ wait on$5$ him and 
214:280,03[P  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton on$4$ this happy occasion$0$; I said that$3$ I hoped 
214:280,04[P  ]| I \should\ in$4$ the course$0$ of the summer. But I ought to$9$ have 
214:280,05[P  ]| gone before$5$. Not to$9$ wait upon$4$ a bride is very remiss. 
214:280,06[P  ]| Ah! it shews what a sad invalid I am! But I do not like$1$ 
214:280,07[P  ]| the corner into Vicarage-lane." 
214:280,08[A  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say your apologies were accepted, sir. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton 
214:280,09[A  ]| knows you." 
214:280,10[P  ]| "Yes: but the young lady ~~ a bride ~~ I ought to$9$ have 
214:280,11[P  ]| paid my respects to$4$ her if possible. It was being$1$ very 
214:280,12[P  ]| deficient." 
214:280,13[A  ]| "But my dear$2#1$ papa, you are no$2$ friend to$4$ matrimony; 
214:280,14[A  ]| and therefore why should you be so$5#1$ anxious to$9$ pay$1$ your 
214:280,15[A  ]| respects to$4$ a \bride\? It ought to$9$ be no$2$ recommendation 
214:280,16[A  ]| to$4$ \you\. It is encouraging people to$9$ marry if you make$1$ so$5#1$ 
214:280,17[A  ]| much of them." 
214:280,18[P  ]| "No$7$, my dear$2#1$, I never encouraged any*body to$9$ marry, 
214:280,19[P  ]| but I would always wish$1$ to$9$ pay$1$ every proper attention to$4$ 
214:280,20[P  ]| a lady ~~ and a bride, especially, is never to$9$ be neglected. 
214:280,21[P  ]| More is avowedly due$2$ to$4$ \her\. A bride, you know, my dear$2#1$, 
214:280,22[P  ]| is always the first in$4$ company, let the others be who$6#1$ they 
214:280,23[P  ]| may$1$." 
214:280,24[A  ]| "Well$7$, papa, if this is not encouragement to$9$ marry, 
214:280,25[A  ]| I do not know what is. And I should never have expected 
214:280,26[A  ]| you to$9$ be lending your sanction to$4$ such vanity-baits for$4$ 
214:280,27[A  ]| poor young ladies." 
214:280,28[P  ]| "My dear$2#1$, you do not understand me. This is a matter 
214:280,29[P  ]| of mere common$2$ politeness and good-breeding, and has 
214:280,30[P  ]| nothing to$9$ do with any encouragement to$4$ people to$9$ marry." 
214:280,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had done. Her father was growing nervous, and 
214:280,32['  ]| could not understand \her\. Her mind$0$ returned to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's 
214:280,33['  ]| offences, and long, very long, did they occupy her. 
215:281,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was not required, by$4$ any subsequent discovery, 
215:281,02['  ]| to$9$ retract her ill opinion of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. Her observation 
215:281,03['  ]| had been pretty$5$ correct$2$. Such as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton appeared 
215:281,04['  ]| to$4$ her on$4$ this second$2$ interview, such she appeared whenever 
215:281,05['  ]| they met again. ~~ 
215:281,05@a   | self-important, presuming, familiar, 
215:281,06@a   | ignorant, and ill-bred. She had a little beauty and a little 
215:281,07@a   | accomplishment, but so$5#1$ little judgment that$3$ she thought$1$ 
215:281,08@a   | herself coming with superior knowledge of the world, to$9$ 
215:281,09@a   | enliven and improve a country neighbourhood; and 
215:281,10@a   | conceived $EM#I$Miss*Hawkins to$9$ have held such a place$0$ in$4$ 
215:281,11@a   | society as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's consequence only could surpass. 
215:281,12@a   | There was no$2$ reason$0$ to$9$ suppose $EM#H$Mr%*Elton thought$1$ at all 
215:281,13@a   | differently from his wife. He seemed not merely happy 
215:281,14@a   | with her, but proud. 
215:281,14['  ]| He had the air of congratulating 
215:281,15['  ]| himself on$4$ having brought such a woman to$4$ Highbury, as 
215:281,16['  ]| not even$5$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse could equal$1$; and the greater 
215:281,17['  ]| part$0$ of her new acquaintance, disposed to$9$ commend, or 
215:281,18['  ]| not in$4$ the habit of judging, following the lead$0#1$ of $EM#D$Miss*Bates's 
215:281,19['  ]| good-will or taking it for$4$ granted that$3$ the bride 
215:281,20['  ]| must be as clever and as agreeable as she professed herself, 
215:281,21['  ]| were very well$5$ satisfied; so$3$ that$3$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's praise$0$ 
215:281,22['  ]| passed from one mouth to$4$ another as it ought to$9$ do, 
215:281,23['  ]| unimpeded by$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ readily continued 
215:281,24['  ]| her first contribution and talked with a good grace$0$ of her 
215:281,25['  ]| being$1$ 
215:281,25[A  ]| "very pleasant and very elegantly dressed." 
215:281,26['  ]| In$4$ one respect$0$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton grew even$5$ worse than she had 
215:281,27['  ]| appeared at first. Her feelings altered towards $EM#A$Emma. ~~ 
215:281,28['  ]| Offended, probably, by$4$ the little encouragement which$6#1$ 
215:281,29['  ]| her proposals of intimacy met with, she drew back$5$ in$4$ her 
215:281,30['  ]| turn$0$ and gradually became much more cold$2$ and distant; 
215:281,31['  ]| and though the effect$0$ was agreeable, the ill-will which$6#1$ 
215:281,32['  ]| produced it was necessarily increasing $EM#A$Emma's dislike$0$. 
215:281,33['  ]| Her manners too$5#2$ ~~ and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's, were unpleasant 
215:281,34['  ]| towards $EM#M$Harriet. They were sneering and negligent. 
215:282,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma hoped it must rapidly work$1$ $EM#M$Harriet's cure$0$; but 
215:282,02['  ]| the sensations which$6#1$ could prompt$1$ such behaviour sunk 
215:282,03['  ]| them both very much. ~~ 
215:282,03@a   | It was not to$9$ be doubted that$3$ 
215:282,04@a   | poor $EM#M$Harriet's attachment had been an offering to$4$ conjugal 
215:282,05@a   | unreserve, and her own$2$ share$0$ in$4$ the story, under a colouring 
215:282,06@a   | the least favourable to$4$ her and the most soothing to$4$ 
215:282,07@a   | him, had in$4$ all likelihood been given also. She was, of 
215:282,08@a   | course$8$, the object$0$ of their joint dislike$0$. ~~ When they had 
215:282,09@a   | nothing else to$9$ say, it must be always easy to$9$ begin 
215:282,10@a   | abusing $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse; and the enmity which$6#1$ they 
215:282,11@a   | dared not shew$1$ in$4$ open$2$ disrespect to$4$ her, found a broader 
215:282,12@a   | vent in$4$ contemptuous treatment of $EM#M$Harriet. 
215:282,13['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton took a great fancy$0$ to$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax; and 
215:282,14['  ]| from the first. Not merely when a state$0$ of warfare with one 
215:282,15['  ]| young lady might be supposed to$9$ recommend the other, 
215:282,16['  ]| but from the very first; and she was not satisfied with 
215:282,17['  ]| expressing a natural$2$ and reasonable admiration ~~ but 
215:282,18['  ]| without solicitation, or plea, or privilege, she must be 
215:282,19['  ]| wanting to$9$ assist and befriend her. ~~ Before$3$ $EM#A$Emma had 
215:282,20['  ]| forfeited her confidence, and about$4$ the third time of their 
215:282,21['  ]| meeting, she heard all $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's knight-errantry on$4$ the 
215:282,22['  ]| subject$0$. ~~ 
215:282,23[I  ]| "$EM#J$Jane*Fairfax is absolutely charming, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. ~~ 
215:282,24[I  ]| I quite rave about$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. ~~ A sweet, 
215:282,25[I  ]| interesting creature. So$5#1$ mild and ladylike ~~ and with 
215:282,26[I  ]| such talents! ~~ I assure you I think she has very extraordinary 
215:282,27[I  ]| talents. I do not scruple$1$ to$9$ say that$3$ she plays$1$ 
215:282,28[I  ]| extremely well$5$. I know enough of music to$9$ speak decidedly 
215:282,29[I  ]| on$4$ that$6#2$ point$0$. Oh! she is absolutely charming! 
215:282,30[I  ]| You will$1$ laugh$1$ at my warmth ~~ but upon$4$ my word; I talk$1$ 
215:282,31[I  ]| of nothing but $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. ~~ And her situation is so$5#1$ 
215:282,32[I  ]| calculated to$9$ affect one! ~~ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, we must 
215:282,33[I  ]| exert ourselves and endeavour$1$ to$9$ do something for$4$ her. 
215:282,34[I  ]| We must bring her forward$5$. Such talents as her's must 
215:282,35[I  ]| not be suffered to$9$ remain unknown. ~~ I dare$1#2$ say you have 
215:282,36[I  ]| heard those charming lines of the poet, 
215:282,37@z   | ""Full many a flower is born$1#1$ to$9$ blush$1$ unseen, 
215:282,38@z   | "And waste$1$ its fragrance on$4$ the desert$2$ air."" 
215:283,01[I  ]| We must not allow them to$9$ be verified in$4$ sweet $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax." 
215:283,02[I  ]| 
215:283,03[A  ]| "I cannot think there is any danger of it," 
215:283,03['  ]| was $EM#A$Emma's 
215:283,04['  ]| calm$2$ answer$0$ ~~ 
215:283,04[A  ]| "and when you are better acquainted with 
215:283,05[A  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's situation and understand what her home 
215:283,06[A  ]| has been, with $EM#ZC$Col% and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell, I have no$2$ idea 
215:283,07[A  ]| that$3$ you will$1$ suppose her talents can be unknown." 
215:283,08[I  ]| "Oh! but dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, she is now in$4$ such 
215:283,09[I  ]| retirement, such obscurity, so$5#1$ thrown away. ~~ Whatever 
215:283,10[I  ]| advantages she may$1$ have enjoyed with the $EM#ZC2$Campbells are 
215:283,11[I  ]| so$5#1$ palpably at an end$0$! And I think she feels it. I am sure 
215:283,12[I  ]| she does. She is very timid and silent. One can see that$3$ 
215:283,13[I  ]| she feels the want$0$ of encouragement. I like$1$ her the better 
215:283,14[I  ]| for$4$ it. I must confess it is a recommendation to$4$ me. I am 
215:283,15[I  ]| a great advocate for$4$ timidity ~~ and I am sure one does not 
215:283,16[I  ]| often meet$1$ with it. ~~ But in$4$ those who$6#1$ are at all inferior, 
215:283,17[I  ]| it is extremely prepossessing. Oh! I assure you, $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
215:283,18[I  ]| is a very delightful character, and interests$1$ me 
215:283,19[I  ]| more than I can express$1$." 
215:283,20[A  ]| "You appear to$9$ feel a great deal$0$ ~~ but I am not aware 
215:283,21[A  ]| how you or any of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's acquaintance here, any 
215:283,22[A  ]| of those who$6#1$ have known her longer than yourself, can 
215:283,23[A  ]| shew$1$ her any other attention than" ~~ 
215:283,24[I  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, a vast deal$0$ may$1$ be done 
215:283,25[I  ]| by$4$ those who$6#1$ dare$1#1$ to$9$ act$1$. You and I need$1$ not be afraid. 
215:283,26[I  ]| If \we\ set$1$ the example, many will$1$ follow it as far as they 
215:283,27[I  ]| can; though all have not our situations. \We\ have 
215:283,28[I  ]| carriages to$9$ fetch and convey her home, and \we\ live in$4$ 
215:283,29[I  ]| a style which$6#1$ could not make$1$ the addition of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, 
215:283,30[I  ]| at any time, the least inconvenient. ~~ I should be extremely 
215:283,31[I  ]| displeased if $EM#ZZS$Wright were to$9$ send us up$5$ such a dinner, as 
215:283,32[I  ]| could make$1$ me regret$1$ having asked \more\ than $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
215:283,33[I  ]| to$9$ partake of it. I have no$2$ idea of that$6#2$ sort of thing. It 
215:283,34[I  ]| is not likely that$3$ I \should\, considering what I have been 
215:283,35[I  ]| used to$4$. My greatest danger, perhaps, in$4$ housekeeping, 
215:283,36[I  ]| may$1$ be quite the other way, in$4$ doing too$5#1$ much, and being$1$ 
215:283,37[I  ]| too$5#1$ careless of expense. Maple*Grove will$1$ probably be my 
215:283,38[I  ]| model more than it ought to$9$ be ~~ for$3$ we do not at all 
215:284,01[I  ]| affect to$9$ equal$1$ my brother, $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling, in$4$ income. ~~ 
215:284,02[I  ]| However, my resolution is taken as to$4$ noticing $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. ~~ 
215:284,03[I  ]| I shall certainly have her very often at my 
215:284,04[I  ]| house, shall introduce her wherever I can, shall have 
215:284,05[I  ]| musical parties to$9$ draw out$5$ her talents, and shall be 
215:284,06[I  ]| constantly on$4$ the watch$0$ for$4$ an eligible situation. My 
215:284,07[I  ]| acquaintance is so$5#1$ very extensive, that$3$ I have little doubt$0$ 
215:284,08[I  ]| of hearing of something to$9$ suit$1$ her shortly. ~~ I shall introduce 
215:284,09[I  ]| her, of course$8$, very particularly to$4$ my brother and 
215:284,10[I  ]| sister when they come to$4$ us. I am sure they will$1$ like$1$ her 
215:284,11[I  ]| extremely; and when she gets a little acquainted with 
215:284,12[I  ]| them, her fears will$1$ completely wear off, for$3$ there really 
215:284,13[I  ]| is nothing in$4$ the manners of either but what is highly 
215:284,14[I  ]| conciliating. ~~ I shall have her very often indeed while$3$ 
215:284,15[I  ]| they are with me, and I dare$1#2$ say we shall sometimes find 
215:284,16[I  ]| a seat for$4$ her in$4$ the barouche-landau in$4$ some of our 
215:284,17[I  ]| exploring parties." 
215:284,18@a   | "Poor $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax!" ~~ 
215:284,18['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma. ~~ 
215:284,18@a   | "You have 
215:284,19@a   | not deserved this. You may$1$ have done wrong with 
215:284,20@a   | regard$0$ to$4$ $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, but this is a punishment beyond$4$ 
215:284,21@a   | what you can have merited! ~~ The kindness and protection 
215:284,22@a   | of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton! ~~ ""$EM#J$Jane*Fairfax and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax."" 
215:284,23@a   | Heavens! Let me not suppose that$3$ she dares go about$5$, 
215:284,24@a   | $EM#A$Emma*Woodhouse-ing me! ~~ But upon$4$ my honour$0$, there 
215:284,25@a   | seem no$2$ limits to$4$ the licentiousness of that$6#2$ woman's 
215:284,26@a   | tongue!" 
215:284,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had not to$9$ listen to$4$ such paradings again ~~ to$4$ 
215:284,28['  ]| any so$5#1$ exclusively addressed to$4$ herself ~~ so$5#1$ disgustingly 
215:284,29['  ]| decorated with a 
215:284,29[I  ]| "dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse." 
215:284,29['  ]| The change$0$ 
215:284,30['  ]| on$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's side$0$ soon afterwards appeared, and she 
215:284,31['  ]| was left in$4$ peace ~~ neither forced to$9$ be the very particular 
215:284,32['  ]| friend of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, nor, under $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's guidance, 
215:284,33['  ]| the very active patroness of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, and only 
215:284,34['  ]| sharing with others in$4$ a general$2$ way, in$4$ knowing what was 
215:284,35['  ]| felt, what was meditated, what was done. 
215:284,36['  ]| She looked on$5$ with some amusement. ~~ $EM#D$Miss*Bates's 
215:284,37['  ]| gratitude for$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's attentions to$4$ $EM#J$Jane was in$4$ the 
215:284,38['  ]| first style of guileless simplicity and warmth. She was 
215:285,01['  ]| quite one of her worthies ~~ the most amiable, affable, 
215:285,02['  ]| delightful woman ~~ just$5$ as accomplished and condescending 
215:285,03['  ]| as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton meant to$9$ be considered. $EM#A$Emma's only 
215:285,04['  ]| surprize$0$ was that$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax should accept those 
215:285,05['  ]| attentions and tolerate $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton as she seemed to$9$ do. 
215:285,06['  ]| She heard of her walking with the $EM#H1$Eltons, sitting with the 
215:285,07['  ]| $EM#H1$Eltons, spending a day with the $EM#H1$Eltons! 
215:285,07@a   | This was 
215:285,08@a   | astonishing! ~~ She could not have believed it possible that$3$ 
215:285,09@a   | the taste or the pride of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax could endure such 
215:285,10@a   | society and friendship as the Vicarage had to$9$ offer$1$. 
215:285,11[A  ]| "She is a riddle, quite a riddle!" 
215:285,11['  ]| said she. ~~ 
215:285,11[A  ]| "To$9$ chuse 
215:285,12[A  ]| to$9$ remain here month after$4$ month, under privations of 
215:285,13[A  ]| every sort! And now to$9$ chuse the mortification of 
215:285,14[A  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's notice$0$ and the penury of her conversation, 
215:285,15[A  ]| rather than return$1$ to$4$ the superior companions who$6#1$ have 
215:285,16[A  ]| always loved her with such real, generous affection." 
215:285,17['  ]| $EM#J$Jane had come to$4$ Highbury professedly for$4$ three 
215:285,18['  ]| months; the $EM#ZC2$Campbells were gone to$4$ Ireland for$4$ three 
215:285,19['  ]| months; but now the $EM#ZC2$Campbells had promised their 
215:285,20['  ]| daughter to$9$ stay$1$ at least till Midsummer, and fresh 
215:285,21['  ]| invitations had arrived for$4$ her to$9$ join them there. According 
215:285,22['  ]| to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates ~~ it all came from her ~~ $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon had 
215:285,23['  ]| written most pressingly. Would $EM#J$Jane but go, means$0$ were 
215:285,24['  ]| to$9$ be found, servants sent, friends contrived ~~ no$2$ travelling 
215:285,25['  ]| difficulty allowed to$9$ exist; but still$5$ she had declined it! 
215:285,26@a   | "She must have some motive, more powerful than 
215:285,27@a   | appears, for$4$ refusing this invitation," 
215:285,27['  ]| was $EM#A$Emma's conclusion. 
215:285,28@a   | "She must be under some sort of penance, 
215:285,29@a   | inflicted either by$4$ the $EM#ZC2$Campbells or herself. There is great 
215:285,30@a   | fear$0$, great caution$0$, great resolution somewhere. ~~ She is 
215:285,31@a   | \not\ to$9$ be with the \$EM#ZF2$Dixons\. The degree is issued by$4$ somebody. 
215:285,32@a   | But why must she consent$1$ to$9$ be with the $EM#H1$Eltons? ~~ 
215:285,33@a   | Here is quite a separate$2$ puzzle$0$." 
215:285,34['  ]| Upon$4$ her speaking her wonder$0$ aloud on$4$ that$6#2$ part$0$ of the 
215:285,35['  ]| subject$0$, before$4$ the few who$6#1$ knew her opinion of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, 
215:285,36['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston ventured this apology for$4$ $EM#J$Jane. 
215:285,37[O  ]| "We cannot suppose that$3$ she has any great enjoyment 
215:285,38[O  ]| at the Vicarage, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma ~~ but it is better than 
215:286,01[O  ]| being$1$ always at home. Her aunt is a good creature, but, 
215:286,02[O  ]| as a constant companion, must be very tiresome. We 
215:286,03[O  ]| must consider what $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax quits, before$3$ we condemn 
215:286,04[O  ]| her taste for$4$ what she goes to$4$." 
215:286,05[B  ]| "You are right$2#1$, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston," 
215:286,05['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
215:286,06['  ]| warmly, 
215:286,06[B  ]| "$EM#J$Miss*Fairfax is as capable as any of us of forming 
215:286,07[B  ]| a just$2$ opinion of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. Could she have chosen 
215:286,08[B  ]| with whom$6#1$ to$9$ associate$1$, she would not have chosen her. 
215:286,09[B  ]| But 
215:286,09['  ]| (with a reproachful smile$0$ at $EM#A$Emma) 
215:286,09[B  ]| she receives 
215:286,10[B  ]| attentions from $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, which$6#1$ nobody else pays her." 
215:286,11['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was giving her a momentary 
215:286,12['  ]| glance$0$; and she was herself struck by$4$ his warmth. 
215:286,13['  ]| With a faint$2$ blush$0$, she presently replied, 
215:286,14[A  ]| "Such attentions as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's, I should have 
215:286,15[A  ]| imagined, would rather disgust$1$ than gratify $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. 
215:286,16[A  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's invitations I should have imagined any*thing 
215:286,17[A  ]| but inviting." 
215:286,18[O  ]| "I should not wonder$1$," 
215:286,18['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
215:286,18[O  ]| "if $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
215:286,19[O  ]| were to$9$ have been drawn on$5$ beyond$4$ her own$2$ inclination, 
215:286,20[O  ]| by$4$ her aunt's eagerness in$4$ accepting $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's 
215:286,21[O  ]| civilities for$4$ her. Poor $EM#D$Miss*Bates may$1$ very likely have 
215:286,22[O  ]| committed her niece and hurried her into a greater 
215:286,23[O  ]| appearance of intimacy than her own$2$ good sense would 
215:286,24[O  ]| have dictated, in$4$ spite$8$ of the very natural$2$ wish$0$ of a little 
215:286,25[O  ]| change$0$." 
215:286,26['  ]| Both felt rather anxious to$9$ hear him speak again; and 
215:286,27['  ]| after$4$ a few minutes silence$0$, he said, 
215:286,28[B  ]| "Another thing must be taken into consideration too$5#2$ ~~ 
215:286,29[B  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton does not talk$1$ \to$4$\ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax as she speaks \of\ 
215:286,30[B  ]| her. We all know the difference between the pronouns he 
215:286,31[B  ]| or she and thou, the plainest-spoken amongst us; we all 
215:286,32[B  ]| feel the influence$0$ of a something beyond$4$ common$2$ civility 
215:286,33[B  ]| in$4$ our personal intercourse with each other ~~ a something 
215:286,34[B  ]| more early implanted. We cannot give any*body the 
215:286,35[B  ]| disagreeable hints that$6#1$ we may$1$ have been very full of the 
215:286,36[B  ]| hour before$5$. We feel things differently. And besides the 
215:286,37[B  ]| operation of this, as a general$2$ principle, you may$1$ be sure 
215:286,38[B  ]| that$3$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax awes $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton by$4$ her superiority both 
215:287,01[B  ]| of mind$0$ and manner; and that$3$ face$0$ to$4$ face$0$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
215:287,02[B  ]| treats her with all the respect$0$ which$6#1$ she has a claim$0$ to$4$. 
215:287,03[B  ]| Such a woman as $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax probably never fell in$4$ 
215:287,04[B  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's way before$5$ ~~ and no$2$ degree of vanity can 
215:287,05[B  ]| prevent her acknowledging her own$2$ comparative littleness 
215:287,06[B  ]| in$4$ action, if not in$4$ consciousness." 
215:287,07[A  ]| "I know how highly you think of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax," 
215:287,07['  ]| said 
215:287,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma. Little $EM#L1$Henry was in$4$ her thoughts, and a mixture 
215:287,09['  ]| of alarm$0$ and delicacy made her irresolute what else to$9$ say. 
215:287,10[B  ]| "Yes," 
215:287,10['  ]| he replied, 
215:287,10[B  ]| "any*body may$1$ know how highly 
215:287,11[B  ]| I think of her." 
215:287,12[A  ]| "And yet," 
215:287,12['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, beginning hastily and with an 
215:287,13['  ]| arch look$0$, but soon stopping ~~ 
215:287,13@a   | it was better, however, to$9$ 
215:287,14@a   | know the worst at once ~~ 
215:287,14['  ]| she hurried on$5$ ~~ 
215:287,14[A  ]| "And yet, 
215:287,15[A  ]| perhaps, you may$1$ hardly be aware yourself how highly 
215:287,16[A  ]| it is. The extent of your admiration may$1$ take you by$4$ 
215:287,17[A  ]| surprize$0$ some day or other." 
215:287,18['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was hard at work$0$ upon$4$ the lower$2$ buttons 
215:287,19['  ]| of his thick leather gaiters, and either the exertion of 
215:287,20['  ]| getting them together, or some other cause, brought the 
215:287,21['  ]| colour into his face$0$, as he answered, 
215:287,22[B  ]| "Oh! are you there? ~~ But you are miserably behindhand. 
215:287,23[B  ]| $EM#F$Mr%*Cole gave me a hint$0$ of it six weeks ago." 
215:287,24['  ]| He stopped. ~~ $EM#A$Emma felt her foot pressed by$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
215:287,25['  ]| and did not herself know what to$9$ think. In$4$ a 
215:287,26['  ]| moment he went on$5$ ~~ 
215:287,27[B  ]| "That$6#2$ will$1$ never be, however, I can assure you. $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
215:287,28[B  ]| I dare$1#2$ say, would not have me if I were to$9$ ask 
215:287,29[B  ]| her ~~ and I am very sure I shall never ask her." 
215:287,30['  ]| $EM#A$Emma returned her friend's pressure with interest$0$; and 
215:287,31['  ]| was pleased enough to$9$ exclaim, 
215:287,32[A  ]| "You are not vain, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. I will$1$ say that$6#2$ 
215:287,33[A  ]| for$4$ you." 
215:287,34['  ]| He seemed hardly to$9$ hear her; he was thoughtful ~~ 
215:287,35['  ]| and in$4$ a manner which$6#1$ shewed him not pleased, soon 
215:287,36['  ]| afterwards said, 
215:287,37[B  ]| "So$3$ you have been settling that$3$ I should marry $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax." 
215:287,38[B  ]| 
215:288,01[A  ]| "No$7$ indeed I have not. You have scolded me too$5#1$ 
215:288,02[A  ]| much for$4$ match-making, for$4$ me to$9$ presume to$9$ take such 
215:288,03[A  ]| a liberty with you. What I said just$5$ now, meant nothing. 
215:288,04[A  ]| One says those sort of things, of course$8$, without any idea 
215:288,05[A  ]| of a serious$2$ meaning. Oh! no$7$, upon$4$ my word I have not 
215:288,06[A  ]| the smallest wish$0$ for$4$ your marrying $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax or $EM#X$Jane 
215:288,07[A  ]| any*body. You would not come in$5$ and sit with us in$4$ this 
215:288,08[A  ]| comfortable way, if you were married." 
215:288,09['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was thoughtful again. The result$0$ of his 
215:288,10['  ]| reverie was, 
215:288,10[B  ]| "No$7$, $EM#A$Emma, I do not think the extent of 
215:288,11[B  ]| my admiration for$4$ her will$1$ ever take me by$4$ surprize$0$. ~~ 
215:288,12[B  ]| I never had a thought$0$ of her in$4$ that$6#2$ way, I assure you." 
215:288,13['  ]| And soon afterwards, 
215:288,13[B  ]| "$EM#J$Jane*Fairfax is a very charming 
215:288,14[B  ]| young woman ~~ but not even$5$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax is perfect$2$. She 
215:288,15[B  ]| has a fault. She has not the open$2$ temper which$6#1$ a man 
215:288,16[B  ]| would wish$1$ for$4$ in$4$ a wife." 
215:288,17['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not but rejoice to$9$ hear that$3$ she had a fault. 
215:288,18[A  ]| "Well$7$," 
215:288,18['  ]| said she, 
215:288,18[A  ]| "and you soon silenced $EM#F$Mr%*Cole, 
215:288,19[A  ]| I suppose?" 
215:288,20[B  ]| "Yes, very soon. He gave me a quiet$2$ hint$0$; I told 
215:288,21[B  ]| him he was mistaken; he asked my pardon$0$ and said no$2$ 
215:288,22[B  ]| more. $EM#F$Cole does not want$1$ to$9$ be wiser or wittier than his 
215:288,23[B  ]| neighbours." 
215:288,24[A  ]| "In$4$ that$6#2$ respect$0$ how unlike dear$2#1$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, who$6#1$ 
215:288,25[A  ]| wants$1$ to$9$ be wiser and wittier than all the world! I wonder$1$ 
215:288,26[A  ]| how she speaks of the $EM#F1$Coles ~~ what she calls$1$ them! How 
215:288,27[A  ]| can she find any appellation for$4$ them, deep enough in$4$ 
215:288,28[A  ]| familiar vulgarity? She calls$1$ you, $EM#B$Knightley ~~ what can 
215:288,29[A  ]| she do for$4$ $EM#F$Mr%*Cole? And so$3$ I am not to$9$ be surprized 
215:288,30[A  ]| that$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax accepts her civilities and consents to$9$ be 
215:288,31[A  ]| with her. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, your argument weighs most with 
215:288,32[A  ]| me. I can much more readily enter into the temptation 
215:288,33[A  ]| of getting away from $EM#D$Miss*Bates, than I can believe in$4$ the 
215:288,34[A  ]| triumph$0$ of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's mind$0$ over $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. I have 
215:288,35[A  ]| no$2$ faith in$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's acknowledging herself the inferior 
215:288,36[A  ]| in$4$ thought$0$, word, or deed; or in$4$ her being$1$ under any 
215:288,37[A  ]| restraint beyond$4$ her own$2$ scanty rule of good-breeding. 
215:288,38[A  ]| I cannot imagine that$3$ she will$1$ not be continually insulting 
215:289,01[A  ]| her visitor with praise$0$, encouragement, and offers$0$ of 
215:289,02[A  ]| service; that$3$ she will$1$ not be continually detailing her 
215:289,03[A  ]| magnificent intentions, from the procuring her a permanent 
215:289,04[A  ]| situation to$4$ the including her in$4$ those delightful 
215:289,05[A  ]| exploring parties which$6#1$ are to$9$ take place$0$ in$4$ the barouche-landau." 
215:289,06[A  ]| 
215:289,07[B  ]| "$EM#J$Jane*Fairfax has feeling," 
215:289,07['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley ~~ 
215:289,07[B  ]| "I do 
215:289,08[B  ]| not accuse her of want$0$ of feeling. Her sensibilities, 
215:289,09[B  ]| I suspect, are strong ~~ and her temper excellent in$4$ its 
215:289,10[B  ]| power of forbearance, patience, self-controul; but it 
215:289,11[B  ]| wants$1$ openness. She is reserved, more reserved, I think, 
215:289,12[B  ]| than she used to$9$ be ~~ And I love$1$ an open$2$ temper. No$7$ ~~ 
215:289,13[B  ]| till $EM#F$Cole alluded to$4$ my supposed attachment, it had never 
215:289,14[B  ]| entered my head$0$. I saw $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax and conversed with 
215:289,15[B  ]| her, with admiration and pleasure always ~~ but with no$2$ 
215:289,16[B  ]| thought$1$ beyond$5$." 
215:289,17[A  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston," 
215:289,17['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma triumphantly when 
215:289,18['  ]| he left them, 
215:289,18[A  ]| "what do you say now to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
215:289,19[A  ]| marrying $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax?" 
215:289,20[O  ]| "Why really, dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, I say that$3$ he is so$5#1$ very much 
215:289,21[O  ]| occupied by$4$ the idea of \not\ being$1$ in$4$ love$0$ with her, that$3$ 
215:289,22[O  ]| I should not wonder$1$ if it were to$9$ end$1$ in$4$ his being$1$ so$5#2$ at last$0$. 
215:289,23[O  ]| Do not beat me." 
216:290,01['  ]| Every*body in$4$ and about$4$ Highbury who$6#1$ had ever 
216:290,02['  ]| visited $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, was disposed to$9$ pay$1$ him attention on$4$ 
216:290,03['  ]| his marriage. Dinner-parties and evening-parties were 
216:290,04['  ]| made for$4$ him and his lady; and invitations flowed in$5$ so$5#1$ 
216:290,05['  ]| fast that$3$ she had soon the pleasure of apprehending they 
216:290,06['  ]| were never to$9$ have a disengaged day. 
216:290,07[I  ]| "I see how it is," 
216:290,07['  ]| said she. 
216:290,07[I  ]| "I see what a life I am to$9$ 
216:290,08[I  ]| lead$1$ among you. Upon$4$ my word we shall be absolutely 
216:290,09[I  ]| dissipated. We really seem quite the fashion$0$. If this is 
216:290,10[I  ]| living in$4$ the country, it is nothing very formidable. From 
216:290,11[I  ]| Monday next to$4$ Saturday, I assure you we have not 
216:290,12[I  ]| a disengaged day! ~~ A woman with fewer resources than 
216:290,13[I  ]| I have, need$1$ not have been at a loss." 
216:290,14['  ]| No$2$ invitation came amiss to$4$ her. Her Bath$0#1$ habits 
216:290,15['  ]| made evening-parties perfectly natural$2$ to$4$ her, and Maple*Grove 
216:290,16['  ]| had given her a taste for$4$ dinners. She was a little 
216:290,17['  ]| shocked at the want$0$ of two drawing*rooms, at the poor 
216:290,18['  ]| attempt$0$ at rout-cakes, and there being$1$ no$2$ ice in$4$ the 
216:290,19['  ]| Highbury card*parties. $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry, $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard 
216:290,20['  ]| and others, were a good deal$0$ behind hand$0$ in$4$ knowledge 
216:290,21['  ]| of the world, but \she\ would soon shew$1$ them how 
216:290,22['  ]| every*thing ought to$9$ be arranged. In$4$ the course$0$ of the 
216:290,23['  ]| spring$0$ she must return$1$ their civilities by$4$ one very superior 
216:290,24['  ]| party ~~ in$4$ which$6#1$ her card*tables should be set$1$ out$5$ with 
216:290,25['  ]| their separate$2$ candles and unbroken packs in$4$ the true 
216:290,26['  ]| style ~~ and more waiters engaged for$4$ the evening than 
216:290,27['  ]| their own$2$ establishment could furnish, to$9$ carry round$5$ the 
216:290,28['  ]| refreshments at exactly the proper hour, and in$4$ the proper 
216:290,29['  ]| order. 
216:290,30['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ the meanwhile, could not be satisfied without 
216:290,31['  ]| a dinner at Hartfield for$4$ the $EM#H1$Eltons. 
216:290,31@a   | They must not do 
216:291,01@a   | less than others, or she should be exposed to$4$ odious 
216:291,02@a   | suspicions, and imagined capable of pitiful resentment. 
216:291,03@a   | A dinner there must be. 
216:291,03['  ]| After$3$ $EM#A$Emma had talked about$4$ it 
216:291,04['  ]| for$4$ ten minutes, $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse felt no$2$ unwillingness, and 
216:291,05['  ]| only made the usual stipulation of not sitting at the bottom 
216:291,06['  ]| of the table himself, with the usual regular difficulty of 
216:291,07['  ]| deciding who$6#1$ should do it for$4$ him. 
216:291,08['  ]| The persons to$9$ be invited, required little thought$0$. 
216:291,09@a   | Besides the $EM#H1$Eltons, it must be the $EM#N1$Westons and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; 
216:291,10@a   | so$5#1$ far it was all of course$8$ ~~ and it was hardly 
216:291,11@a   | less inevitable that$3$ poor little $EM#M$Harriet must be asked 
216:291,12@a   | to$9$ make$1$ the eighth: ~~ 
216:291,12['  ]| but this invitation was not given 
216:291,13['  ]| with equal$2$ satisfaction, and on$4$ many accounts $EM#A$Emma 
216:291,14['  ]| was particularly pleased by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's begging to$9$ be 
216:291,15['  ]| allowed to$9$ decline it. 
216:291,15[M  ]| "She would rather not be in$4$ \his\ 
216:291,16[M  ]| company more than she could help$1$. She was not yet quite 
216:291,17[M  ]| able to$9$ see him and his charming happy wife together, 
216:291,18[M  ]| without feeling uncomfortable. If $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse would 
216:291,19[M  ]| not be displeased, she would rather stay$1$ at home." 
216:291,19['  ]| It was 
216:291,20['  ]| precisely what $EM#A$Emma would have wished, had she deemed 
216:291,21['  ]| it possible enough for$4$ wishing. 
216:291,21@a   | She was delighted with the 
216:291,22@a   | fortitude of her little friend ~~ for$3$ fortitude she knew it was 
216:291,23@a   | in$4$ her to$9$ give up$5$ being$1$ in$4$ company and stay$1$ at home; and 
216:291,24@a   | she could now invite the very person whom$6#1$ she really 
216:291,25@a   | wanted to$9$ make$1$ the eighth, $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. ~~ 
216:291,25['  ]| Since her last$2$ 
216:291,26['  ]| conversation with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, she 
216:291,27['  ]| was more conscience-stricken about$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax than she 
216:291,28['  ]| had often been. ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's words dwelt with her. 
216:291,29['  ]| He had said that$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax received attentions from 
216:291,30['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton which$6#1$ nobody else paid her. 
216:291,31[A  ]| "This is very true," 
216:291,31['  ]| said she, 
216:291,31[A  ]| "at least as far as relates 
216:291,32[A  ]| to$4$ me, which$6#1$ was all that$6#1$ was meant ~~ and it is very 
216:291,33[A  ]| shameful. ~~ Of the same age ~~ and always knowing her ~~ 
216:291,34[A  ]| I ought to$9$ have been more her friend. ~~ She will$1$ never like$1$ 
216:291,35[A  ]| me now. I have neglected her too$5#1$ long. But I will$1$ shew$1$ 
216:291,36[A  ]| her greater attention than I have done." 
216:291,37['  ]| Every invitation was successful. They were all disengaged 
216:291,38['  ]| and all happy. ~~ The preparatory interest$0$ of this 
216:292,01['  ]| dinner, however, was not yet over. A circumstance rather 
216:292,02['  ]| unlucky occurred. The two eldest little $EM#L6$Knightleys were 
216:292,03['  ]| engaged to$9$ pay$1$ their grandpapa and aunt a visit$0$ of some 
216:292,04['  ]| weeks in$4$ the spring$0$, and their papa now proposed bringing 
216:292,05['  ]| them, and staying one whole$2$ day at Hartfield ~~ which$6#1$ one 
216:292,06['  ]| day would be the very day of this party. ~~ His professional 
216:292,07['  ]| engagements did not allow of his being$1$ put off, but both 
216:292,08['  ]| father and daughter were disturbed by$4$ its happening so$5#2$. 
216:292,09['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse considered eight persons at dinner 
216:292,10['  ]| together as the utmost that$6#1$ his nerves could bear$1$ ~~ and 
216:292,11['  ]| here would be a ninth ~~ and $EM#A$Emma apprehended that$3$ it 
216:292,12['  ]| would be a ninth very much out$5$ of humour at not being$1$ 
216:292,13['  ]| able to$9$ come even$5$ to$4$ Hartfield for$4$ forty-eight hours without 
216:292,14['  ]| falling in$5$ with a dinner-party. 
216:292,15['  ]| She comforted her father better than she could comfort$1$ 
216:292,16['  ]| herself, by$4$ representing that$3$ though he certainly would 
216:292,17['  ]| make$1$ them nine, yet he always said so$5#1$ little, that$3$ the 
216:292,18['  ]| increase$0$ of noise would be very immaterial. She thought$1$ 
216:292,19['  ]| it in$4$ reality a sad exchange$0$ for$4$ herself, to$9$ have him with 
216:292,20['  ]| his grave$2$ looks$0$ and reluctant conversation opposed to$4$ her 
216:292,21['  ]| instead of his brother. 
216:292,22['  ]| The event was more favourable to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
216:292,23['  ]| than to$4$ $EM#A$Emma. $EM#K$John*Knightley came; but $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
216:292,24['  ]| was unexpectedly summoned to$4$ town and must be 
216:292,25['  ]| absent on$4$ the very day. He might be able to$9$ join 
216:292,26['  ]| them in$4$ the evening, but certainly not to$4$ dinner. 
216:292,27['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was quite at ease$0$; and the seeing him so$5#2$, 
216:292,28['  ]| with the arrival of the little boys and the philosophic 
216:292,29['  ]| composure of her brother on$4$ hearing his fate, removed the 
216:292,30['  ]| chief of even$5$ $EM#A$Emma's vexation. 
216:292,31['  ]| The day came, the party were punctually assembled, 
216:292,32['  ]| and $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley seemed early to$9$ devote himself 
216:292,33['  ]| to$4$ the business of being$1$ agreeable. Instead of drawing 
216:292,34['  ]| his brother off to$4$ a window while$3$ they waited for$4$ dinner, 
216:292,35['  ]| he was talking to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, as elegant as 
216:292,36['  ]| lace$0$ and pearls could make$1$ her, he looked at in$4$ silence$0$ ~~ 
216:292,37['  ]| wanting only to$9$ observe enough for$4$ $EM#L$Isabella's information 
216:292,38['  ]| ~~ but $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax was an old acquaintance and a quiet$2$ 
216:293,01['  ]| girl, and he could talk$1$ to$4$ her. He had met her before$4$ 
216:293,02['  ]| breakfast$0$ as he was returning from a walk$0$ with his little 
216:293,03['  ]| boys, when it had been just$5$ beginning to$9$ rain$1$. It was 
216:293,04['  ]| natural$2$ to$9$ have some civil hopes$0$ on$4$ the subject$0$, and he 
216:293,05['  ]| said, 
216:293,06[K  ]| "I hope$1$ you did not venture far, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, this 
216:293,07[K  ]| morning, or I am sure you must have been wet$2$. ~~ \We\ 
216:293,08[K  ]| scarcely got home in$4$ time. I hope$1$ you turned directly." 
216:293,09[J  ]| "I went only to$4$ the post-office," 
216:293,09['  ]| said she, 
216:293,09[J  ]| "and reached 
216:293,10[J  ]| home before$3$ the rain$0$ was much. It is my daily errand. 
216:293,11[J  ]| I always fetch the letters when I am here. It saves trouble$0$, 
216:293,12[J  ]| and is a something to$9$ get me out$5$. A walk$0$ before$4$ breakfast$0$ 
216:293,13[J  ]| does me good." 
216:293,14[K  ]| "Not a walk$0$ in$4$ the rain$0$, I should imagine." 
216:293,15[J  ]| "No$7$, but it did not absolutely rain$1$ when I set$1$ out$5$." 
216:293,16['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley smiled, and replied, 
216:293,17[K  ]| "That$6#2$ is to$9$ say, you chose to$9$ have your walk$0$, for$3$ you 
216:293,18[K  ]| were not six yards from your own$2$ door when I had the 
216:293,19[K  ]| pleasure of meeting you; and $EM#L1$Henry and $EM#L2$John had seen 
216:293,20[K  ]| more drops$0$ than they could count long before$5$. The post-office 
216:293,21[K  ]| has a great charm$0$ at one period of our lives$0$. When 
216:293,22[K  ]| you have lived to$4$ my age, you will$1$ begin to$9$ think letters 
216:293,23[K  ]| are never worth going through$4$ the rain$0$ for$5$." 
216:293,24['  ]| There was a little blush$0$, and then this answer$0$, 
216:293,25[J  ]| "I must not hope$1$ to$9$ be ever situated as you are, in$4$ the 
216:293,26[J  ]| midst of every dearest connection, and therefore I cannot 
216:293,27[J  ]| expect that$3$ simply growing older should make$1$ me indifferent 
216:293,28[J  ]| about$4$ letters." 
216:293,29[K  ]| "Indifferent! Oh! no$7$ ~~ I never conceived you could 
216:293,30[K  ]| become indifferent. Letters are no$2$ matter of indifference; 
216:293,31[K  ]| they are generally a very positive curse." 
216:293,32[J  ]| "You are speaking of letters of business; mine$6$ are 
216:293,33[J  ]| letters of friendship." 
216:293,34[K  ]| "I have often thought$1$ them the worst of the two," 
216:293,35['  ]| replied he coolly. 
216:293,35[K  ]| "Business, you know, may$1$ bring 
216:293,36[K  ]| money, but friendship hardly ever does." 
216:293,37[J  ]| "Ah! you are not serious$2$ now. I know $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley 
216:293,38[J  ]| too$5#1$ well$5$ ~~ I am very sure he understands the 
216:294,01[J  ]| value$0$ of friendship as well$5$ as any*body. I can easily 
216:294,02[J  ]| believe that$3$ letters are very little to$4$ you, much less than 
216:294,03[J  ]| to$4$ me, but it is not your being$1$ ten years older than myself 
216:294,04[J  ]| which$6#1$ makes the difference, it is not age, but situation. 
216:294,05[J  ]| You have every*body dearest to$4$ you always at hand$0$, 
216:294,06[J  ]| I, probably, never shall again; and therefore till I have 
216:294,07[J  ]| outlived all my affections, a post-office, I think, must 
216:294,08[J  ]| always have power to$9$ draw me out$5$, in$4$ worse weather than 
216:294,09[J  ]| to-day." 
216:294,10[K  ]| "When I talked of your being$1$ altered by$4$ time, by$4$ the 
216:294,11[K  ]| progress of years," 
216:294,11['  ]| said $EM#K$John*Knightley, 
216:294,11[K  ]| "I meant to$9$ 
216:294,12[K  ]| imply the change$0$ of situation which$6#1$ time usually brings. 
216:294,13[K  ]| I consider one as including the other. Time will$1$ generally 
216:294,14[K  ]| lessen the interest$0$ of every attachment not within the daily 
216:294,15[K  ]| circle ~~ but that$6#2$ is not the change$0$ I had in$4$ view$0$ for$4$ you. As 
216:294,16[K  ]| an old friend, you will$1$ allow me to$9$ hope$1$, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, that$3$ 
216:294,17[K  ]| ten years hence you may$1$ have as many concentrated 
216:294,18[K  ]| objects$0$ as I have." 
216:294,19['  ]| It was kindly said, and very far from giving offence. 
216:294,20['  ]| A pleasant 
216:294,20[J  ]| "thank you" 
216:294,20['  ]| seemed meant to$9$ laugh$1$ it off, but 
216:294,21['  ]| a blush$0$, a quivering lip, a tear$0$ in$4$ the eye, shewed that$3$ it 
216:294,22['  ]| was felt beyond$4$ a laugh$0$. Her attention was now claimed 
216:294,23['  ]| by$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ being$1$, according to$4$ his custom on$4$ 
216:294,24['  ]| such occasions, making the circle of his guests, and paying 
216:294,25['  ]| his particular compliments to$4$ the ladies, was ending with 
216:294,26['  ]| her ~~ and with all his mildest urbanity, said, 
216:294,27[P  ]| "I am very sorry to$9$ hear, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, of your being$1$ 
216:294,28[P  ]| out$5$ this morning in$4$ the rain$0$. Young ladies should take 
216:294,29[P  ]| care$0$ of themselves. ~~ Young ladies are delicate plants. 
216:294,30[P  ]| They should take care$0$ of their health and their complexion. 
216:294,31[P  ]| My dear$2#1$, did you change$1$ your stockings?" 
216:294,32[J  ]| "Yes, sir, I did indeed; and I am very much obliged 
216:294,33[J  ]| by$4$ your kind$2$ solicitude about$4$ me." 
216:294,34[P  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, young ladies are very sure to$9$ be 
216:294,35[P  ]| cared for$5$. ~~ I hope$1$ your good grandmamma and aunt are 
216:294,36[P  ]| well$5$. They are some of my very old friends. I wish$1$ my 
216:294,37[P  ]| health allowed me to$9$ be a better neighbour. You do us 
216:294,38[P  ]| a great deal$0$ of honour$0$ to-day, I am sure. My daughter 
216:295,01[P  ]| and I are both highly sensible$2#1$ of your goodness, and have 
216:295,02[P  ]| the greatest satisfaction in$4$ seeing you at Hartfield." 
216:295,03['  ]| The kind-hearted, polite old man might then sit down$5$ 
216:295,04['  ]| and feel that$3$ he had done his duty, and made every fair 
216:295,05['  ]| lady welcome$2$ and easy. 
216:295,06['  ]| By$4$ this time, the walk$0$ in$4$ the rain$0$ had reached $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, 
216:295,07['  ]| and her remonstrances now opened upon$4$ $EM#J$Jane. 
216:295,08[I  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, what is this I hear? ~~ going to$4$ the 
216:295,09[I  ]| post-office in$4$ the rain$0$! ~~ This must not be, I assure you. ~~ 
216:295,10[I  ]| You sad girl, how could you do such a thing? ~~ It is a sign 
216:295,11[I  ]| I was not there to$9$ take care$0$ of you." 
216:295,12['  ]| $EM#J$Jane very patiently assured her that$3$ she had not caught 
216:295,13['  ]| any cold$0$. 
216:295,14[I  ]| "Oh! do not tell \me\. You really are a very sad girl, 
216:295,15[I  ]| and do not know how to$9$ take care$0$ of yourself. ~~ To$4$ the 
216:295,16[I  ]| post-office indeed! $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, did you ever hear the 
216:295,17[I  ]| like$0$? You and I must positively exert our authority." 
216:295,18[O  ]| "My advice," 
216:295,18['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston kindly and persuasively, 
216:295,19[O  ]| "I certainly do feel tempted to$9$ give. $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, you 
216:295,20[O  ]| must not run$1$ such risks. ~~ Liable as you have been to$4$ 
216:295,21[O  ]| severe colds, indeed you ought to$9$ be particularly careful, 
216:295,22[O  ]| especially at this time of year. The spring$0$ I always think 
216:295,23[O  ]| requires more than common$2$ care$0$. Better wait an hour 
216:295,24[O  ]| or two, or even$5$ half a day for$4$ your letters, than run$1$ the 
216:295,25[O  ]| risk$0$ of bringing on$5$ your cough again. Now do not you 
216:295,26[O  ]| feel that$3$ you had? Yes, I am sure you are much too$5#1$ 
216:295,27[O  ]| reasonable. You look$1$ as if you would not do such a thing 
216:295,28[O  ]| again." 
216:295,29[I  ]| "Oh! she \shall\ \not\ do such a thing again," 
216:295,29['  ]| eagerly 
216:295,30['  ]| rejoined $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. 
216:295,30[I  ]| "We will$1$ not allow her to$9$ do such 
216:295,31[I  ]| a thing again:" ~~ 
216:295,31['  ]| and nodding significantly ~~ 
216:295,31[I  ]| "there must 
216:295,32[I  ]| be some arrangement made, there must indeed. I shall 
216:295,33[I  ]| speak to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*E%. The man who$6#1$ fetches our letters every 
216:295,34[I  ]| morning (one of our men, I forget his name$0$) shall inquire 
216:295,35[I  ]| for$4$ your's too$5#2$ and bring them to$4$ you. That$6#2$ will$1$ obviate 
216:295,36[I  ]| all difficulties you know; and from \us\ I really think, my 
216:295,37[I  ]| dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, you can have no$2$ scruple$0$ to$9$ accept such an 
216:295,38[I  ]| accommodation." 
216:296,01[J  ]| "You are extremely kind$2$," 
216:296,01['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane; 
216:296,01[J  ]| "but I cannot 
216:296,02[J  ]| give up$5$ my early walk$0$. I am advised to$9$ be out$5$ of doors 
216:296,03[J  ]| as much as I can, I must walk$1$ somewhere, and the post-office 
216:296,04[J  ]| is an object$0$; and upon$4$ my word, I have scarcely 
216:296,05[J  ]| ever had a bad morning before$5$." 
216:296,06[I  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, say no$2$ more about$4$ it. The thing is 
216:296,07[I  ]| determined, that$6#2$ is 
216:296,07['  ]| (laughing affectedly) 
216:296,07[I  ]| as far as I can 
216:296,08[I  ]| presume to$9$ determine any*thing without the concurrence 
216:296,09[I  ]| of my lord$0$ and master. You know, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, you and 
216:296,10[I  ]| I must be cautious how we express$1$ ourselves. But I do 
216:296,11[I  ]| flatter myself, my dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, that$3$ my influence$0$ is not 
216:296,12[I  ]| entirely worn out$5$. If I meet$1$ with no$2$ insuperable difficulties 
216:296,13[I  ]| therefore, consider that$6#2$ point$0$ as settled." 
216:296,14[J  ]| "Excuse$1$ me," 
216:296,14['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane earnestly, 
216:296,14[J  ]| "I cannot by$4$ any 
216:296,15[J  ]| means$0$ consent$1$ to$4$ such an arrangement, so$5#1$ needlessly 
216:296,16[J  ]| troublesome to$4$ your servant. If the errand were not 
216:296,17[J  ]| a pleasure to$4$ me, it could be done, as it always is when 
216:296,18[J  ]| I am not here, by$4$ my grandmamma's." 
216:296,19[I  ]| "Oh! my dear$2#1$; but so$5#1$ much as $EM#V$Patty has to$9$ do! ~~ 
216:296,20[I  ]| And it is a kindness to$9$ employ our men." 
216:296,21['  ]| $EM#J$Jane looked as if she did not mean$1$ to$9$ be conquered; 
216:296,22['  ]| but instead of answering, she began speaking again to$4$ 
216:296,23['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley. 
216:296,24[J  ]| "The post-office is a wonderful establishment!" 
216:296,24['  ]| said 
216:296,25['  ]| she. ~~ 
216:296,25[J  ]| "The regularity and dispatch of it! If one thinks 
216:296,26[J  ]| of all that$6#1$ it has to$9$ do, and all that$6#1$ it does so$5#1$ well$5$, it is 
216:296,27[J  ]| really astonishing!" 
216:296,28[K  ]| "It is certainly very well$5$ regulated." 
216:296,29[J  ]| "So$5#1$ seldom that$3$ any negligence or blunder$0$ appears! So$5#1$ 
216:296,30[J  ]| seldom that$3$ a letter, among the thousands that$6#1$ are 
216:296,31[J  ]| constantly passing about$4$ the kingdom, is even$5$ carried 
216:296,32[J  ]| wrong ~~ and not one in$4$ a million, I suppose, actually lost! 
216:296,33[J  ]| And when one considers the variety of hands, and of bad 
216:296,34[J  ]| hands too$5#2$, that$6#1$ are to$9$ be deciphered, it increases the 
216:296,35[J  ]| wonder$0$!" 
216:296,36[K  ]| "The clerks grow expert from habit. ~~ They must begin 
216:296,37[K  ]| with some quickness of sight and hand$0$, and exercise$0$ 
216:296,38[K  ]| improves them. If you want$1$ any further explanation," 
216:297,01['  ]| continued he, smiling, 
216:297,01[K  ]| "they are paid for$4$ it. That$6#2$ is the 
216:297,02[K  ]| key to$4$ a great deal$0$ of capacity. The public$0$ pays and must 
216:297,03[K  ]| be served well$5$." 
216:297,04['  ]| The varieties of hand-writing were farther talked of, and 
216:297,05['  ]| the usual observations made. 
216:297,06[K  ]| "I have heard it asserted," 
216:297,06['  ]| said $EM#K$John*Knightley, 
216:297,06[K  ]| "that$3$ 
216:297,07[K  ]| the same sort of hand-writing often prevails in$4$ a family; 
216:297,08[K  ]| and where the same master teaches, it is natural$2$ enough. 
216:297,09[K  ]| But for$4$ that$6#2$ reason$0$, I should imagine the likeness must be 
216:297,10[K  ]| chiefly confined to$4$ the females, for$3$ boys have very little 
216:297,11[K  ]| teaching after$4$ an early age, and scramble into any hand$0$ 
216:297,12[K  ]| they can get. $EM#L$Isabella and $EM#A$Emma, I think, do write very 
216:297,13[K  ]| much alike. I have not always known their writing 
216:297,14[K  ]| apart." 
216:297,15[B  ]| "Yes," 
216:297,15['  ]| said his brother hesitatingly, 
216:297,15[B  ]| "there is a likeness. 
216:297,16[B  ]| I know what you mean$1$ ~~ but $EM#A$Emma's hand$0$ is the 
216:297,17[B  ]| strongest." 
216:297,18[P  ]| "$EM#L$Isabella and $EM#A$Emma both write beautifully," 
216:297,18['  ]| said 
216:297,19['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse; 
216:297,19[P  ]| "and always did. And so$3$ does poor 
216:297,20[P  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston" ~~ 
216:297,20['  ]| with half a sigh$0$ and half a smile$0$ at her. 
216:297,21[A  ]| "I never saw any gentleman's handwriting" ~~ 
216:297,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma 
216:297,22['  ]| began, looking also at $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; but stopped, on$4$ 
216:297,23['  ]| perceiving that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was attending to$4$ some*one 
216:297,24['  ]| else ~~ and the pause$0$ gave her time to$9$ reflect, 
216:297,24@a   | "Now, how 
216:297,25@a   | am I going to$9$ introduce him? ~~ Am I unequal to$4$ speaking 
216:297,26@a   | his name$0$ at once before$4$ all these people? Is it necessary 
216:297,27@a   | for$4$ me to$9$ use$1$ any roundabout phrase? ~~ Your Yorkshire 
216:297,28@a   | friend ~~ your correspondent in$4$ Yorkshire; ~~ that$6#2$ would be 
216:297,29@a   | the way, I suppose, if I were very bad. ~~ No$7$, I can pronounce 
216:297,30@a   | his name$0$ without the smallest distress$0$. I certainly 
216:297,31@a   | get better and better. ~~ Now for$4$ it." 
216:297,32['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was disengaged and $EM#A$Emma began again ~~ 
216:297,33[A  ]| "$EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill writes one of the best gentlemen's 
216:297,34[A  ]| hands I ever saw." 
216:297,35[B  ]| "I do not admire it," 
216:297,35['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
216:297,35[B  ]| "It is too$5#1$ 
216:297,36[B  ]| small ~~ wants$1$ strength. It is like$4$ a woman's writing." 
216:297,37['  ]| This was not submitted to$5$ by$4$ either lady. They 
216:297,38['  ]| vindicated him against the base aspersion. 
216:297,38[Y  ]| "No$7$, it by$4$ 
216:298,01[Y  ]| no$2$ means$0$ wanted strength ~~ it was not a large hand$0$, but 
216:298,02[Y  ]| very clear$2$ and certainly strong. Had not $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
216:298,03[Y  ]| any letter about$4$ her to$9$ produce?" 
216:298,03@o   | No$7$, she had heard 
216:298,04@o   | from him very lately, but having answered the letter, had 
216:298,05@o   | put it away. 
216:298,06[A  ]| "If we were in$4$ the other room," 
216:298,06['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
216:298,06[A  ]| "if I had 
216:298,07[A  ]| my writing-desk, I am sure I could produce a specimen. 
216:298,08[A  ]| I have a note$0$ of his. ~~ Do not you remember, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
216:298,09[A  ]| employing him to$9$ write for$4$ you one day?" 
216:298,10[O  ]| "He chose to$9$ say he was employed" ~~ 
216:298,11[A  ]| "Well$7$, well$7$, I have that$6#2$ note$0$; and can shew$1$ it after$4$ 
216:298,12[A  ]| dinner to$9$ convince $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley." 
216:298,13[B  ]| "Oh! when a gallant young man, like$4$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill," 
216:298,14['  ]| said $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley drily, 
216:298,14[B  ]| "writes to$4$ a fair 
216:298,15[B  ]| lady like$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, he will$1$, of course$8$, put forth his 
216:298,16[B  ]| best." 
216:298,17['  ]| Dinner was on$4$ table. ~~ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, before$3$ she could be 
216:298,18['  ]| spoken to$5$, was ready; and before$3$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had 
216:298,19['  ]| reached her with his request$0$ to$9$ be allowed to$9$ hand$1$ her into 
216:298,20['  ]| the dinner-parlour, was saying ~~ 
216:298,21[I  ]| "Must I go first? I really am ashamed of always 
216:298,22[I  ]| leading the way." 
216:298,23['  ]| $EM#J$Jane's solicitude about$4$ fetching her own$2$ letters had not 
216:298,24['  ]| escaped $EM#A$Emma. She had heard and seen it all; and felt 
216:298,25['  ]| some curiosity to$9$ know whether the wet$2$ walk$0$ of this 
216:298,26['  ]| morning had produced any. She suspected that$3$ it \had\; 
216:298,27['  ]| that$3$ it would not have been so$5#1$ resolutely encountered but 
216:298,28['  ]| in$4$ full expectation of hearing from some*one very dear$2#1$, 
216:298,29['  ]| and that$3$ it had not been in$4$ vain. She thought$1$ there was 
216:298,30['  ]| an air of greater happiness than usual ~~ a glow both of 
216:298,31['  ]| complexion and spirits. 
216:298,32['  ]| She could have made an inquiry or two, as to$4$ the 
216:298,33['  ]| expedition and the expense of the Irish mails; ~~ it was at 
216:298,34['  ]| her tongue's end$0$ ~~ but she abstained. She was quite 
216:298,35['  ]| determined not to$9$ utter$1$ a word that$6#1$ should hurt $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's 
216:298,36['  ]| feelings; and they followed the other ladies out$5$ 
216:298,37['  ]| of the room, arm$0$ in$4$ arm$0$, with an appearance of good-will 
216:298,38['  ]| highly becoming to$4$ the beauty and grace$0$ of each. 
217:299,01['  ]| When the ladies returned to$4$ the drawing-room after$4$ 
217:299,02['  ]| dinner, $EM#A$Emma found it hardly possible to$9$ prevent their 
217:299,03['  ]| making two distinct parties; ~~ with so$5#1$ much perseverance 
217:299,04['  ]| in$4$ judging and behaving ill did $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton engross $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
217:299,05['  ]| and slight$1$ herself. She and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston were 
217:299,06['  ]| obliged to$9$ be almost always either talking together or 
217:299,07['  ]| silent together. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton left them no$2$ choice$0$. If $EM#J$Jane 
217:299,08['  ]| repressed her for$4$ a little time, she soon began again; and 
217:299,09['  ]| though much that$6#1$ passed between them was in$4$ a half-whisper, 
217:299,10['  ]| especially on$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's side$0$, there was no$2$ 
217:299,11['  ]| avoiding knowledge of their principal$2$ subjects: ~~ The post-office 
217:299,12['  ]| ~~catching cold$0$ ~~ fetching letters ~~ and friendship, 
217:299,13['  ]| were long under discussion; and to$4$ them succeeded one, 
217:299,14['  ]| which$6#1$ must be at least equally unpleasant to$4$ $EM#J$Jane ~~ inquiries 
217:299,15['  ]| whether she had yet heard of any situation likely to$9$ 
217:299,16['  ]| suit$1$ her, and professions of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's meditated activity. 
217:299,17[I  ]| "Here is April come!" 
217:299,17['  ]| said she, 
217:299,17[I  ]| "I get quite anxious 
217:299,18[I  ]| about$4$ you. June will$1$ soon be here." 
217:299,19[J  ]| "But I have never fixed on$4$ June or any other month ~~ 
217:299,20[J  ]| merely looked forward$5$ to$4$ the summer in$4$ general$0$." 
217:299,21[I  ]| "But have you really heard of nothing?" 
217:299,22[J  ]| "I have not even$5$ made any inquiry; I do not wish$1$ to$9$ 
217:299,23[J  ]| make$1$ any yet." 
217:299,24[I  ]| "Oh! my dear$2#1$, we cannot begin too$5#1$ early; you are 
217:299,25[I  ]| not aware of the difficulty of procuring exactly the 
217:299,26[I  ]| desirable thing." 
217:299,27[J  ]| "I not aware!" 
217:299,27['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane, shaking her head$0$; 
217:299,27[J  ]| "dear$2#1$ 
217:299,28[J  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, who$6#2$ can have thought$1$ of it as I have done?" 
217:299,29[I  ]| "But you have not seen so$5#1$ much of the world as I have. 
217:299,30[I  ]| You do not know how many candidates there always are 
217:299,31[I  ]| for$4$ the \first\ situations. I saw a vast deal$0$ of that$6#2$ in$4$ the 
217:299,32[I  ]| neighbourhood round$4$ Maple*Grove. A cousin of $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling, 
217:299,33[I  ]| $EM#ZB1$Mrs%*Bragge, had such an infinity of applications; 
217:299,34[I  ]| every*body was anxious to$9$ be in$4$ her family, for$3$ she moves 
217:300,01[I  ]| in$4$ the first circle. Wax-candles in$4$ the school-room! You 
217:300,02[I  ]| may$1$ imagine how desirable! Of all the houses in$4$ the kingdom 
217:300,03[I  ]| $EM#ZB1$Mrs%*Bragge's is the one I would most wish$1$ to$9$ see you in$4$." 
217:300,04[J  ]| "$EM#ZC$Col% and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell are to$9$ be in$4$ town again by$4$ mid-
summer," 
217:300,05['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane, 
217:300,05[J  ]| "I must spend some time with them; 
217:300,06[J  ]| I am sure they will$1$ want$1$ it; ~~ afterwards I may$1$ probably 
217:300,07[J  ]| be glad to$9$ dispose of myself. But I would not wish$1$ you 
217:300,08[J  ]| to$9$ take the trouble$0$ of making any inquiries at present$0#1$." 
217:300,09[I  ]| "Trouble$0$! aye, I know your scruples. You are afraid 
217:300,10[I  ]| of giving me trouble$0$; but I assure you, my dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, 
217:300,11[I  ]| the $EM#ZC2$Campbells can hardly be more interested about$4$ you 
217:300,12[I  ]| than I am. I shall write to$4$ $EM#ZL$Mrs%*Partridge in$4$ a day or two, 
217:300,13[I  ]| and shall give her a strict charge$0$ to$9$ be on$4$ the look-out for$4$ 
217:300,14[I  ]| any*thing eligible." 
217:300,15[J  ]| "Thank you, but I would rather you did not mention$1$ 
217:300,16[J  ]| the subject$0$ to$4$ her; till the time draws nearer, I do not 
217:300,17[J  ]| wish$1$ to$9$ be giving any*body trouble$0$." 
217:300,18[I  ]| "But, my dear$2#1$ child, the time \is\ drawing near$5$; here 
217:300,19[I  ]| is April, and June, or say even$5$ July, is very near$5$, with 
217:300,20[I  ]| such business to$9$ accomplish before$4$ us. Your inexperience 
217:300,21[I  ]| really amuses me! A situation such as you deserve, and 
217:300,22[I  ]| your friends would require for$4$ you, is no$2$ every*day 
217:300,23[I  ]| occurrence, is not obtained at a moment's notice$0$; indeed, 
217:300,24[I  ]| indeed, we must begin inquiring directly." 
217:300,25[J  ]| "Excuse$1$ me, ma'am, but this is by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ my 
217:300,26[J  ]| intention; I make$1$ no$2$ inquiry myself, and should be sorry 
217:300,27[J  ]| to$9$ have any made by$4$ my friends. When I am quite 
217:300,28[J  ]| determined as to$4$ the time, I am not at all afraid of being$1$ 
217:300,29[J  ]| long unemployed. There are places$0$ in$4$ town, offices, where 
217:300,30[J  ]| inquiry would soon produce something ~~ Offices for$4$ the 
217:300,31[J  ]| sale ~~ not quite of human flesh ~~ but of human intellect." 
217:300,32[I  ]| "Oh! my dear$2#1$, human flesh! You quite shock$1$ me; if 
217:300,33[I  ]| you mean$1$ a fling at the slave-trade, I assure you $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling 
217:300,34[I  ]| was always rather a friend to$4$ the abolition." 
217:300,35[J  ]| "I did not mean$1$, I was not thinking of the slave-trade," 
217:300,36['  ]| replied $EM#J$Jane; 
217:300,36[J  ]| "governess-trade, I assure you, was all 
217:300,37[J  ]| that$6#1$ I had in$4$ view$0$; widely different certainly, as to$4$ the 
217:300,38[J  ]| guilt of those who$6#1$ carry it on$5$; but as to$4$ the greater 
217:301,01[J  ]| misery of the victims, I do not know where it lies$1$. But 
217:301,02[J  ]| I only mean$1$ to$9$ say that$3$ there are advertising offices, and 
217:301,03[J  ]| that$3$ by$4$ applying to$4$ them I should have no$2$ doubt$0$ of very 
217:301,04[J  ]| soon meeting with something that$6#1$ would do." 
217:301,05[I  ]| "Something that$6#1$ would do!" 
217:301,05['  ]| repeated $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. 
217:301,06[I  ]| "Aye, \that$6#2$\ may$1$ suit$1$ your humble$2$ ideas of yourself; ~~ 
217:301,07[I  ]| I know what a modest creature you are; but it will$1$ not 
217:301,08[I  ]| satisfy your friends to$9$ have you taking up$5$ with any*thing 
217:301,09[I  ]| that$6#1$ may$1$ offer$1$, any inferior, commonplace situation, in$4$ 
217:301,10[I  ]| a family not moving in$4$ a certain circle, or able to$9$ command$1$ 
217:301,11[I  ]| the elegancies of life." 
217:301,12[J  ]| "You are very obliging; but as to$4$ all that$6#2$, I am very 
217:301,13[J  ]| indifferent; it would be no$2$ object$0$ to$4$ me to$9$ be with the 
217:301,14[J  ]| rich; my mortifications, I think, would only be the 
217:301,15[J  ]| greater; I should suffer more from comparison. A gentleman's 
217:301,16[J  ]| family is all that$6#1$ I should condition$1$ for$4$." 
217:301,17[I  ]| "I know you, I know you; you would take up$5$ with 
217:301,18[I  ]| any*thing; but I shall be a little more nice, and I am sure 
217:301,19[I  ]| the good $EM#ZC2$Campbells will$1$ be quite on$4$ my side$0$; with your 
217:301,20[I  ]| superior talents, you have a right$0$ to$9$ move$1$ in$4$ the first circle. 
217:301,21[I  ]| Your musical knowledge alone would entitle you to$9$ name$1$ 
217:301,22[I  ]| your own$2$ terms, have as many rooms as you like$1$, and 
217:301,23[I  ]| mix in$4$ the family as much as you chose; ~~ that$6#2$ is ~~ I do 
217:301,24[I  ]| not know ~~ if you knew the harp, you might do all that$6#2$, 
217:301,25[I  ]| I am very sure; but you sing as well$5$ as play$1$; ~~ yes, 
217:301,26[I  ]| I really believe you might, even$5$ without the harp, stipulate 
217:301,27[I  ]| for$4$ what you chose; ~~ and you must and shall be delightfully, 
217:301,28[I  ]| honourably and comfortably settled before$3$ the 
217:301,29[I  ]| $EM#ZC2$Campbells or I have any rest$0#2$." 
217:301,30[J  ]| "You may$1$ well$5$ class$1$ the delight$0$, the honour$0$, and the 
217:301,31[J  ]| comfort$0$ of such a situation together," 
217:301,31['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane, 
217:301,31[J  ]| "they 
217:301,32[J  ]| are pretty$5$ sure to$9$ be equal$2$; however, I am very serious$2$ 
217:301,33[J  ]| in$4$ not wishing any*thing to$9$ be attempted at present$0#1$ for$4$ 
217:301,34[J  ]| me. I am exceedingly obliged to$4$ you, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, I am 
217:301,35[J  ]| obliged to$4$ any*body who$6#1$ feels for$4$ me, but I am quite 
217:301,36[J  ]| serious$2$ in$4$ wishing nothing to$9$ be done till the summer. 
217:301,37[J  ]| For$4$ two or three months longer I shall remain where I am, 
217:301,38[J  ]| and as I am." 
217:302,01[I  ]| "And I am quite serious$2$ too$5#2$, I assure you," 
217:302,01['  ]| replied 
217:302,02['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton gaily, 
217:302,02[I  ]| "in$4$ resolving to$9$ be always on$4$ the watch$0$, 
217:302,03[I  ]| and employing my friends to$9$ watch$1$ also, that$3$ nothing 
217:302,04[I  ]| really unexceptionable may$1$ pass$1$ us." 
217:302,05['  ]| In$4$ this style she ran on$5$; never thoroughly stopped by$4$ 
217:302,06['  ]| any*thing till $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse came into the room; her 
217:302,07['  ]| vanity had then a change$0$ of object$0$, and $EM#A$Emma heard her 
217:302,08['  ]| saying in$4$ the same half-whisper to$4$ $EM#J$Jane, 
217:302,09[I  ]| "Here comes this dear$2#1$ old beau of mine$6$, I protest! ~~ 
217:302,10[I  ]| Only think of his gallantry in$4$ coming away before$4$ the 
217:302,11[I  ]| other men! ~~ what a dear$2#1$ creature he is; ~~ I assure you 
217:302,12[I  ]| I like$1$ him excessively. I admire all that$6#2$ quaint, old-fashioned 
217:302,13[I  ]| politeness; it is much more to$4$ my taste than 
217:302,14[I  ]| modern ease$0$; modern ease$0$ often disgusts me. But this 
217:302,15[I  ]| good old $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, I wish$1$ you had heard his gallant 
217:302,16[I  ]| speeches to$4$ me at dinner. Oh! I assure you I began to$9$ 
217:302,17[I  ]| think my caro*sposo would be absolutely jealous. I fancy$1$ 
217:302,18[I  ]| I am rather a favourite$0$; he took notice$0$ of my gown. How 
217:302,19[I  ]| do you like$1$ it? ~~ $EM#V$Selina's choice$0$ ~~ handsome, I think, but 
217:302,20[I  ]| I do not know whether it is not over-trimmed; I have the 
217:302,21[I  ]| greatest dislike$0$ to$4$ the idea of being$1$ over-trimmed ~~ quite 
217:302,22[I  ]| a horror of finery. I must put on$5$ a few ornaments \now\ 
217:302,23[I  ]| because it is expected of me. A bride, you know, must 
217:302,24[I  ]| appear like$4$ a bride, but my natural$2$ taste is all for$4$ simplicity; 
217:302,25[I  ]| a simple$2$ style of dress$0$ is so$5#1$ infinitely preferable to$4$ finery. 
217:302,26[I  ]| But I am quite in$4$ the minority, I believe; few people seem 
217:302,27[I  ]| to$9$ value$1$ simplicity of dress$0$, ~~ shew$0$ and finery are every*thing. 
217:302,28[I  ]| I have some notion of putting such a trimming as 
217:302,29[I  ]| this to$4$ my white and silver poplin. Do you think it will$1$ 
217:302,30[I  ]| look$1$ well$5$?" 
217:302,31['  ]| The whole$2$ party were but just$5$ reassembled in$4$ the 
217:302,32['  ]| drawing-room when $EM#N$Mr%*Weston made his appearance 
217:302,33['  ]| among them. He had returned to$4$ a late dinner, and walked 
217:302,34['  ]| to$4$ Hartfield as soon as it was over. He had been too$5#1$ much 
217:302,35['  ]| expected by$4$ the best judges, for$4$ surprize$0$ ~~ but there was 
217:302,36['  ]| great joy. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was almost as glad to$9$ see him 
217:302,37['  ]| now, as he would have been sorry to$9$ see him before$5$. $EM#K$John*Knightley 
217:302,38['  ]| only was in$4$ mute astonishment. ~~ 
217:302,38@k   | That$3$ a man 
217:303,01@k   | who$6#1$ might have spent his evening quietly at home after$4$ 
217:303,02@k   | a day of business in$4$ London, should set$1$ off again, and walk$1$ 
217:303,03@k   | half-a-mile to$4$ another man's house, for$4$ the sake of being$1$ 
217:303,04@k   | in$4$ mixed company till bed-time, of finishing his day in$4$ the 
217:303,05@k   | efforts of civility and the noise of numbers, was a circumstance 
217:303,06@k   | to$9$ strike him deeply. A man who$6#1$ had been in$4$ 
217:303,07@k   | motion since eight o'clock in$4$ the morning, and might now 
217:303,08@k   | have been still$2$, who$6#1$ had been long talking, and might have 
217:303,09@k   | been silent, who$6#1$ had been in$4$ more than one crowd, and 
217:303,10@k   | might have been alone! ~~ Such a man, to$9$ quit the tranquillity 
217:303,11@k   | and independence of his own$2$ fire-side, and on$4$ the 
217:303,12@k   | evening of a cold$2$ sleety April day rush out$5$ again into the 
217:303,13@k   | world! ~~ Could he by$4$ a touch$0$ of his finger have instantly 
217:303,14@k   | taken back$5$ his wife, there would have been a motive; but 
217:303,15@k   | his coming would probably prolong rather than break up$5$ 
217:303,16@k   | the party. 
217:303,16['  ]| $EM#K$John*Knightley looked at him with amazement, 
217:303,17['  ]| then shrugged his shoulders, and said, 
217:303,17[K  ]| "I could not have 
217:303,18[K  ]| believed it even$5$ of \him\." 
217:303,19['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston meanwhile, perfectly unsuspicious of the 
217:303,20['  ]| indignation he was exciting, happy and cheerful as usual, 
217:303,21['  ]| and with all the right$0$ of being$1$ principal$2$ talker, which$6#1$ 
217:303,22['  ]| a day spent any*where from home confers, was making 
217:303,23['  ]| himself agreeable among the rest$0#1$; and having satisfied the 
217:303,24['  ]| inquiries of his wife as to$4$ his dinner, convincing her that$3$ 
217:303,25['  ]| none of all her careful directions to$4$ the servants had been 
217:303,26['  ]| forgotten, and spread abroad what public$2$ news he had 
217:303,27['  ]| heard, was proceeding to$4$ a family communication, which$6#1$, 
217:303,28['  ]| though principally addressed to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, he had not 
217:303,29['  ]| the smallest doubt$0$ of being$1$ highly interesting to$4$ every*body 
217:303,30['  ]| in$4$ the room. He gave her a letter, it was from $EM#E$Frank, 
217:303,31['  ]| and to$4$ herself; he had met with it in$4$ his way, and had 
217:303,32['  ]| taken the liberty of opening it. 
217:303,33[N  ]| "Read it, read it," 
217:303,33['  ]| said he, 
217:303,33[N  ]| "it will$1$ give you pleasure; 
217:303,34[N  ]| only a few lines ~~ will$1$ not take you long; read it to$4$ $EM#A$Emma." 
217:303,35['  ]| The two ladies looked over it together; and he sat 
217:303,36['  ]| smiling and talking to$4$ them the whole$2$ time, in$4$ a voice 
217:303,37['  ]| a little subdued, but very audible to$4$ every*body. 
217:303,38[N  ]| "Well$7$, he is coming, you see; good news, I think. 
217:304,01[N  ]| Well$7$, what do you say to$4$ it? ~~ I always told you he would 
217:304,02[N  ]| be here again soon, did not I? ~~ $EM#O$Anne, my dear$2#1$, did not 
217:304,03[N  ]| I always tell you so$5#2$, and you would not believe me? ~~ In$4$ 
217:304,04[N  ]| town next week, you see ~~ at the latest, I dare$1#2$ say; for$3$ 
217:304,05[N  ]| \she\ is as impatient as the black gentleman when any*thing 
217:304,06[N  ]| is to$9$ be done; most likely they will$1$ be there to-morrow or 
217:304,07[N  ]| Saturday. As to$4$ her illness, all nothing of course$8$. But it 
217:304,08[N  ]| is an excellent thing to$9$ have $EM#E$Frank among us again, so$5#1$ 
217:304,09[N  ]| near$5$ as town. They will$1$ stay$1$ a good while$0$ when they do 
217:304,10[N  ]| come, and he will$1$ be half his time with us. This is precisely 
217:304,11[N  ]| what I wanted. Well$7$, pretty$5$ good news, is not it? 
217:304,12[N  ]| Have you finished it? Has $EM#A$Emma read it all? Put it up$5$, 
217:304,13[N  ]| put it up$5$; we will$1$ have a good talk$0$ about$4$ it some other 
217:304,14[N  ]| time, but it will$1$ not do now. I shall only just$5$ mention$1$ the 
217:304,15[N  ]| circumstance to$4$ the others in$4$ a common$2$ way." 
217:304,16['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was most comfortably pleased on$4$ the 
217:304,17['  ]| occasion$0$. Her looks$0$ and words had nothing to$9$ restrain 
217:304,18['  ]| them. She was happy, she knew she was happy, and 
217:304,19['  ]| knew she ought to$9$ be happy. Her congratulations were 
217:304,20['  ]| warm$2$ and open$2$; but $EM#A$Emma could not speak so$5#1$ fluently. 
217:304,21['  ]| \She\ was a little occupied in$4$ weighing her own$2$ feelings, 
217:304,22['  ]| and trying to$9$ understand the degree of her agitation, which$6#1$ 
217:304,23['  ]| she rather thought$1$ was considerable. 
217:304,24['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, however, too$5#1$ eager to$9$ be very observant, too$5#1$ 
217:304,25['  ]| communicative to$9$ want$1$ others to$9$ talk$1$, was very well$5$ satisfied 
217:304,26['  ]| with what she did say, and soon moved away to$9$ make$1$ 
217:304,27['  ]| the rest$0#1$ of his friends happy by$4$ a partial communication 
217:304,28['  ]| of what the whole$2$ room must have overheard already. 
217:304,29['  ]| It was well$5$ that$3$ he took every*body's joy for$4$ granted, 
217:304,30['  ]| or he might not have thought$1$ either $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse or 
217:304,31['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley particularly delighted. They were the 
217:304,32['  ]| first entitled, after$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and $EM#A$Emma, to$9$ be made 
217:304,33['  ]| happy; ~~ from them he would have proceeded to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
217:304,34['  ]| but she was so$5#1$ deep in$4$ conversation with $EM#K$John*Knightley, 
217:304,35['  ]| that$3$ it would have been too$5#1$ positive an interruption; 
217:304,36['  ]| and finding himself close$5$ to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, and her 
217:304,37['  ]| attention disengaged, he necessarily began on$4$ the subject$0$ 
217:304,38['  ]| with her. 
218:305,01[N  ]| "I hope$1$ I shall soon have the pleasure of introducing 
218:305,02[N  ]| my son to$4$ you," 
218:305,02['  ]| said $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
218:305,03['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, very willing to$9$ suppose a particular compliment$0$ 
218:305,04['  ]| intended her by$4$ such a hope$0$, smiled most graciously. 
218:305,05[N  ]| "You have heard of a certain $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, I presume," 
218:305,06['  ]| he continued ~~ 
218:305,06[N  ]| "and know him to$9$ be my son, 
218:305,07[N  ]| though he does not bear$1$ my name$0$." 
218:305,08[I  ]| "Oh! yes, and I shall be very happy in$4$ his acquaintance. 
218:305,09[I  ]| I am sure $EM#H$Mr%*Elton will$1$ lose no$2$ time in$4$ calling on$4$ him; 
218:305,10[I  ]| and we shall both have great pleasure in$4$ seeing him at the 
218:305,11[I  ]| Vicarage." 
218:305,12[N  ]| "You are very obliging. ~~ $EM#E$Frank will$1$ be extremely 
218:305,13[N  ]| happy, I am sure. ~~ He is to$9$ be in$4$ town next week, if not 
218:305,14[N  ]| sooner. We have notice$0$ of it in$4$ a letter to-day. I met the 
218:305,15[N  ]| letters in$4$ my way this morning, and seeing my son's hand$0$, 
218:305,16[N  ]| presumed to$9$ open$1$ it ~~ though it was not directed to$4$ me ~~ 
218:305,17[N  ]| it was to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. She is his principal$2$ correspondent, 
218:305,18[N  ]| I assure you. I hardly ever get a letter." 
218:305,19[I  ]| "And so$3$ you absolutely opened what was directed to$4$ 
218:305,20[I  ]| her! oh! $EM#N$Mr%*Weston ~~ 
218:305,20['  ]| (laughing affectedly) 
218:305,20[I  ]| I must 
218:305,21[I  ]| protest against that$6#2$. ~~ A most dangerous precedent 
218:305,22[I  ]| indeed! ~~ I beg you will$1$ not let your neighbours follow 
218:305,23[I  ]| your example. ~~ Upon$4$ my word, if this is what I am to$9$ 
218:305,24[I  ]| expect, we married women must begin to$9$ exert ourselves! 
218:305,25[I  ]| ~~ Oh! $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, I could not have believed it of you!" 
218:305,26[N  ]| "Aye, we men are sad fellows. You must take care$0$ of 
218:305,27[N  ]| yourself, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. ~~ This letter tells us ~~ it is a short 
218:305,28[N  ]| letter ~~ written in$4$ a hurry$0$, merely to$9$ give us notice$0$ ~~ it 
218:305,29[N  ]| tells us that$3$ they are all coming up$5$ to$4$ town directly, on$4$ 
218:305,30[N  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's account$0$ ~~ she has not been well$5$ the whole$2$ 
218:305,31[N  ]| winter, and thinks Enscombe too$5#1$ cold$2$ for$4$ her ~~ so$3$ they are 
218:305,32[N  ]| all to$9$ move$1$ southward without loss of time." 
218:305,33[I  ]| "Indeed! ~~ from Yorkshire, I think. Enscombe is in$4$ 
218:305,34[I  ]| Yorkshire?" 
218:306,01[N  ]| "Yes, they are about$4$ 190 miles from London. A considerable 
218:306,02[N  ]| journey." 
218:306,03[I  ]| "Yes, upon$4$ my word, very considerable. Sixty-five 
218:306,04[I  ]| miles farther than from Maple*Grove to$4$ London. But 
218:306,05[I  ]| what is distance$0$, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, to$4$ people of large fortune? ~~ 
218:306,06[I  ]| You would be amazed to$9$ hear how my brother, $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling, 
218:306,07[I  ]| sometimes flies about$5$. You will$1$ hardly believe me ~~ 
218:306,08[I  ]| but twice in$4$ one week he and $EM#ZB$Mr%*Bragge went to$4$ London 
218:306,09[I  ]| and back$5$ again with four horses." 
218:306,10[N  ]| "The evil of the distance$0$ from Enscombe," 
218:306,10['  ]| said 
218:306,11['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
218:306,11[N  ]| "is, that$3$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, \as\ \we\ \understand\,

218:306,13[N  ]| In$4$ $EM#E$Frank's last$2$ letter she complained, he said, of being$1$ too$5#1$ 
218:306,14[N  ]| weak to$9$ get into her conservatory without having both his 
218:306,15[N  ]| arm$0$ and his uncle's! This, you know, speaks a great 
218:306,16[N  ]| degree of weakness ~~ but now she is so$5#1$ impatient to$9$ be in$4$ 
218:306,17[N  ]| town, that$3$ she means$1$ to$9$ sleep$1$ only two nights on$4$ the road. 
218:306,18[N  ]| ~~ So$5#2$ $EM#E$Frank writes word. Certainly, delicate ladies have 
218:306,19[N  ]| very extraordinary constitutions, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. You must 
218:306,20[N  ]| grant me that$6#2$." 
218:306,21[I  ]| "No$7$, indeed, I shall grant you nothing. I always take 
218:306,22[I  ]| the part$0$ of my own$2$ sex. I do indeed. I give you notice$0$ ~~ 
218:306,23[I  ]| You will$1$ find me a formidable antagonist on$4$ that$6#2$ point$0$. 
218:306,24[I  ]| I always stand$1$ up$5$ for$4$ women ~~ and I assure you, if you 
218:306,25[I  ]| knew how $EM#V$Selina feels with respect$0$ to$4$ sleeping at an inn, 
218:306,26[I  ]| you would not wonder$1$ at $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's making incredible 
218:306,27[I  ]| exertions to$9$ avoid it. $EM#V$Selina says it is quite horror to$4$ her ~~ 
218:306,28[I  ]| and I believe I have caught a little of her nicety. She 
218:306,29[I  ]| always travels with her own$2$ sheets; an excellent precaution. 
218:306,30[I  ]| Does $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill do the same?" 
218:306,31[N  ]| "Depend upon$4$ it, $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill does everything that$6#1$ 
218:306,32[N  ]| any other fine lady ever did. $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill will$1$ not be 
218:306,33[N  ]| second$2$ to$4$ any lady in$4$ the land for$3$" ~~ 
218:306,34['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton eagerly interposed with, 
218:306,35[I  ]| "Oh! $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, do not mistake$1$ me. $EM#V$Selina is no$2$ fine 
218:306,36[I  ]| lady, I assure you. Do not run$1$ away with such an idea." 
218:306,37[N  ]| "Is not she? Then she is no$2$ rule for$4$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, 
218:306,38[N  ]| who$6#1$ is as thorough a fine lady as any*body ever beheld." 
218:307,01['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton began to$9$ think she had been wrong in$4$ 
218:307,02['  ]| disclaiming so$5#1$ warmly. It was by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ her object$0$ to$9$ 
218:307,03['  ]| have it believed that$3$ her sister was \not\ a fine lady; 
218:307,04@i   | perhaps there was want$0$ of spirit in$4$ the pretence of it; ~~ 
218:307,05['  ]| and she was considering in$4$ what way she had best retract, 
218:307,06['  ]| when $EM#N$Mr%*Weston went on$5$. 
218:307,07[N  ]| "$EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill is not much in$4$ my good graces, as you 
218:307,08[N  ]| may$1$ suspect ~~ but this is quite between ourselves. She 
218:307,09[N  ]| is very fond of $EM#E$Frank, and therefore I would not speak ill 
218:307,10[N  ]| of her. Besides, she is out$5$ of health now; but \that$6#2$\ indeed, 
218:307,11[N  ]| by$4$ her own$2$ account$0$, she has always been. I would not 
218:307,12[N  ]| say so$5#2$ to$4$ every*body, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, but I have not much 
218:307,13[N  ]| faith in$4$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's illness." 
218:307,14[I  ]| "If she is really ill, why not go to$4$ Bath$0#1$, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston? ~~ 
218:307,15[I  ]| To$4$ Bath$0#1$, or to$4$ Clifton?" 
218:307,16[N  ]| "She has taken it into her head$0$ that$3$ Enscombe is too$5#1$ 
218:307,17[N  ]| cold$2$ for$4$ her. The fact is, I suppose, that$3$ she is tired of 
218:307,18[N  ]| Enscombe. She has now been a longer time stationary 
218:307,19[N  ]| there, than she ever was before$5$, and she begins to$9$ want$1$ 
218:307,20[N  ]| change$0$. It is a retired place$0$. A fine place$0$, but very 
218:307,21[N  ]| retired." 
218:307,22[I  ]| "Aye ~~ like$4$ Maple*Grove, I dare$1#2$ say. Nothing can 
218:307,23[I  ]| stand$1$ more retired from the road than Maple*Grove. 
218:307,24[I  ]| Such an immense plantation all round$4$ it! You seem shut 
218:307,25[I  ]| out$5$ from every*thing ~~ in$4$ the most complete$2$ retirement. ~~ 
218:307,26[I  ]| And $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill probably has not health or spirits like$4$ 
218:307,27[I  ]| $EM#V$Selina to$9$ enjoy that$6#2$ sort of seclusion. Or, perhaps she 
218:307,28[I  ]| may$1$ not have resources in$4$ herself to$9$ be qualified 
218:307,29[I  ]| for$4$ a country life. I always say a woman cannot have too$5#1$ 
218:307,30[I  ]| many resources ~~ and I feel very thankful that$3$ I have so$5#1$ 
218:307,31[I  ]| many myself as to$9$ be quite independent of society." 
218:307,32[N  ]| "$EM#E$Frank was here in$4$ February for$4$ a fortnight." 
218:307,33[I  ]| "So$5#2$ I remember to$9$ have heard. He will$1$ find an 
218:307,34[I  ]| \addition\ to$4$ the society of Highbury when he comes again; 
218:307,35[I  ]| that$6#2$ is, if I may$1$ presume to$9$ call$1$ myself an addition. But 
218:307,36[I  ]| perhaps he may$1$ never have heard of there being$1$ such 
218:307,37[I  ]| a creature in$4$ the world." 
218:307,38['  ]| This was too$5#1$ loud a call$0$ for$4$ a compliment$0$ to$9$ be passed 
218:308,01['  ]| by$5$, and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston with a very good grace$0$, immediately 
218:308,02['  ]| exclaimed, 
218:308,03[N  ]| "My dear$2#1$ madam! Nobody but yourself could imagine 
218:308,04[N  ]| such a thing possible. Not heard of you! ~~ I believe 
218:308,05[N  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's letters lately have been full of very little else 
218:308,06[N  ]| than $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton." 
218:308,07['  ]| He had done his duty and could return$1$ to$4$ his son. 
218:308,08[N  ]| "When $EM#E$Frank left us," 
218:308,08['  ]| continued he, 
218:308,08[N  ]| "it was quite 
218:308,09[N  ]| uncertain when we might see him again, which$6#1$ makes 
218:308,10[N  ]| this day's news doubly welcome$2$. It has been completely 
218:308,11[N  ]| unexpected. That$6#2$ is, \I\ always had a strong persuasion he 
218:308,12[N  ]| would be here again soon, I was sure something favourable 
218:308,13[N  ]| would turn$1$ up$5$ ~~ but nobody believed me. He and 
218:308,14[N  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston were both dreadfully desponding. 
218:308,14@e   | ""How 
218:308,15@e   | could he contrive to$9$ come? And how could it be supposed 
218:308,16@e   | that$3$ his uncle and aunt would spare$1$ him again?"" 
218:308,16[N  ]| and so$5#2$ 
218:308,17[N  ]| forth ~~ I always felt that$3$ something would happen in$4$ our 
218:308,18[N  ]| favour$0$; and so$3$ it has, you see. I have observed, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, 
218:308,19[N  ]| in$4$ the course$0$ of my life, that$3$ if things are going 
218:308,20[N  ]| untowardly one month, they are sure to$9$ mend the next." 
218:308,21[I  ]| "Very true, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, perfectly true. It is just$5$ what 
218:308,22[I  ]| I used to$9$ say to$4$ a certain gentleman in$4$ company in$4$ the 
218:308,23[I  ]| days of courtship, when, because things did not go quite 
218:308,24[I  ]| right$2#1$, did not proceed with all the rapidity which$6#1$ suited 
218:308,25[I  ]| his feelings, he was apt to$9$ be in$4$ despair$0$, and exclaim that$3$ 
218:308,26[I  ]| he was sure at this rate$0$ it would be \May$0$\ before$3$ $EM#Z2$Hymen's 
218:308,27[I  ]| saffron robe would be put on$5$ for$4$ us! Oh! the pains I have 
218:308,28[I  ]| been at to$9$ dispel those gloomy ideas and give him cheerfuller 
218:308,29[I  ]| views! The carriage ~~ we had disappointments 
218:308,30[I  ]| about$4$ the carriage; ~~ one morning, I remember, he came 
218:308,31[I  ]| to$4$ me quite in$4$ despair$0$." 
218:308,32['  ]| She was stopped by$4$ a slight$2$ fit$0$ of coughing, and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
218:308,33['  ]| instantly seized the opportunity of going on$5$. 
218:308,34[N  ]| "You were mentioning May$0$. May$0$ is the very month 
218:308,35[N  ]| which$6#1$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill is ordered, or has ordered herself, to$9$ 
218:308,36[N  ]| spend in$4$ some warmer place$0$ than Enscombe ~~ in$4$ short, to$9$ 
218:308,37[N  ]| spend in$4$ London; so$3$ that$3$ we have the agreeable prospect 
218:308,38[N  ]| of frequent visits from $EM#E$Frank the whole$2$ spring$0$ ~~ precisely 
218:309,01[N  ]| the season of the year which$6#1$ one should have chosen for$4$ it: 
218:309,02[N  ]| days almost at the longest; weather genial and pleasant, 
218:309,03[N  ]| always inviting one out$5$, and never too$5#1$ hot for$4$ exercise$0$. 
218:309,04[N  ]| When he was here before$5$, we made the best of it; but 
218:309,05[N  ]| there was a good deal$0$ of wet$2$, damp$2$, cheerless weather; 
218:309,06[N  ]| there always is in$4$ February, you know, and we could not 
218:309,07[N  ]| do half that$6#1$ we intended. Now will$1$ be the time. This 
218:309,08[N  ]| will$1$ be complete$2$ enjoyment; and I do not know, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, 
218:309,09[N  ]| whether the uncertainty of our meetings, the sort 
218:309,10[N  ]| of constant expectation there will$1$ be of his coming in$5$ to-day 
218:309,11[N  ]| or to-morrow, and at any hour, may$1$ not be more 
218:309,12[N  ]| friendly to$4$ happiness than having him actually in$4$ the 
218:309,13[N  ]| house. I think it is so$5#2$. I think it is the state$0$ of mind$0$ 
218:309,14[N  ]| which$6#1$ gives most spirit and delight$0$. I hope$1$ you will$1$ be 
218:309,15[N  ]| pleased with my son; but you must not expect a prodigy. 
218:309,16[N  ]| He is generally thought$1$ a fine young man, but do not 
218:309,17[N  ]| expect a prodigy. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's partiality for$4$ him is very 
218:309,18[N  ]| great, and, as you may$1$ suppose, most gratifying to$4$ me. 
218:309,19[N  ]| She thinks nobody equal$2$ to$4$ him." 
218:309,20[I  ]| "And I assure you, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, I have very little 
218:309,21[I  ]| doubt$0$ that$3$ my opinion will$1$ be decidedly in$4$ his favour$0$. 
218:309,22[I  ]| I have heard so$5#1$ much in$4$ praise$0$ of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill. ~~ 
218:309,23[I  ]| At the same time it is fair to$9$ observe, that$3$ I am one of 
218:309,24[I  ]| those who$6#1$ always judge$1$ for$4$ themselves, and are by$4$ no$2$ 
218:309,25[I  ]| means$0$ implicitly guided by$4$ others. I give you notice$0$ that$3$ 
218:309,26[I  ]| as I find your son, so$3$ I shall judge$1$ him. ~~ I am no$2$ 
218:309,27[I  ]| flatterer." 
218:309,28['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was musing. 
218:309,29[N  ]| "I hope$1$," 
218:309,29['  ]| said he presently, 
218:309,29[N  ]| "I have not been severe 
218:309,30[N  ]| upon$4$ poor $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill. If she is ill I should be sorry to$9$ 
218:309,31[N  ]| do her injustice; but there are some traits in$4$ her character 
218:309,32[N  ]| which$6#1$ make$1$ it difficult for$4$ me to$9$ speak of her with the 
218:309,33[N  ]| forbearance I could wish$1$. You cannot be ignorant, 
218:309,34[N  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, of my connection with the family, nor of the 
218:309,35[N  ]| treatment I have met with; and, between ourselves, the 
218:309,36[N  ]| whole$2$ blame$0$ of it is to$9$ be laid on$4$ her. She was the instigator. 
218:309,37[N  ]| $EM#E$Frank's mother would never have been slighted as she was 
218:309,38[N  ]| but for$4$ her. $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill has pride; but his pride is 
218:310,01[N  ]| nothing to$4$ his wife's: his is a quiet$2$, indolent, gentleman-like 
218:310,02[N  ]| sort of pride that$6#1$ would harm$1$ nobody, and only make$1$ 
218:310,03[N  ]| himself a little helpless and tiresome; but her pride is 
218:310,04[N  ]| arrogance and insolence! And what inclines one less to$9$ 
218:310,05[N  ]| bear$1$, she has no$2$ fair pretence of family or blood. She was 
218:310,06[N  ]| nobody when he married her, barely the daughter of 
218:310,07[N  ]| a gentleman; but ever since her being$1$ turned into 
218:310,08[N  ]| a $EM#W$Churchill she has $EM#W$out-Churchill'd them all in$4$ high and 
218:310,09[N  ]| mighty claims: but in$4$ herself, I assure you, she is an 
218:310,10[N  ]| upstart$0$." 
218:310,11[I  ]| "Only think! well$7$, that$6#2$ must be infinitely provoking! 
218:310,12[I  ]| I have quite a horror of upstarts. Maple*Grove has given 
218:310,13[I  ]| me a thorough disgust$0$ of people of that$6#2$ sort; for$3$ there is 
218:310,14[I  ]| a family in$4$ that$6#2$ neighbourhood who$6#1$ are such an annoyance 
218:310,15[I  ]| to$4$ my brother and sister from the airs they give themselves! 
218:310,16[I  ]| Your description of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill made me think 
218:310,17[I  ]| of them directly. People of the name$0$ of $EM#ZZP$Tupman, very 
218:310,18[I  ]| lately settled there, and encumbered with many low 
218:310,19[I  ]| connections, but giving themselves immense airs, and 
218:310,20[I  ]| expecting to$9$ be on$4$ a footing with the old established 
218:310,21[I  ]| families. A year and a half is the very utmost that$6#1$ they 
218:310,22[I  ]| can have lived at West*Hall; and how they got their 
218:310,23[I  ]| fortune nobody knows. They came from Birmingham, 
218:310,24[I  ]| which$6#1$ is not a place$0$ to$9$ promise$1$ much, you know, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
218:310,25[I  ]| One has not great hopes$0$ from Birmingham. I always 
218:310,26[I  ]| say there is something direful in$4$ the sound$0$: but nothing 
218:310,27[I  ]| more is positively known of the $EM#ZZP$Tupmans, though a good 
218:310,28[I  ]| many things I assure you are suspected; and yet by$4$ their 
218:310,29[I  ]| manners they evidently think themselves equal$2$ even$5$ to$4$ my 
218:310,30[I  ]| brother, $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling, who$6#1$ happens to$9$ be one of their 
218:310,31[I  ]| nearest neighbours. It is infinitely too$5#1$ bad. $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling 
218:310,32[I  ]| who$6#1$ has been eleven years a resident at Maple*Grove, and 
218:310,33[I  ]| whose$6#1$ father had it before$4$ him ~~ I believe, at least ~~ I am 
218:310,34[I  ]| almost sure that$3$ old $EM#W3$Mr%*Suckling had completed the 
218:310,35[I  ]| purchase$0$ before$4$ his death." 
218:310,36['  ]| They were interrupted. Tea was carrying round$5$, and 
218:310,37['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, having said all that$6#1$ he wanted, soon took the 
218:310,38['  ]| opportunity of walking away. 
218:311,01['  ]| After$4$ tea, $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton sat down$5$ 
218:311,02['  ]| with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse to$4$ cards. The remaining five were 
218:311,03['  ]| left to$4$ their own$2$ powers, and $EM#A$Emma doubted their getting 
218:311,04['  ]| on$5$ very well$5$; for$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley seemed little disposed 
218:311,05['  ]| for$4$ conversation; $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was wanting notice$0$, which$6#1$ 
218:311,06['  ]| nobody had inclination to$9$ pay$1$, and she was herself in$4$ 
218:311,07['  ]| a worry of spirits which$6#1$ would have made her prefer being$1$ 
218:311,08['  ]| silent. 
218:311,09['  ]| $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley proved more talkative than his 
218:311,10['  ]| brother. He was to$9$ leave$1$ them early the next day; and 
218:311,11['  ]| he soon began with ~~ 
218:311,12[K  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#A$Emma, I do not believe I have any*thing more 
218:311,13[K  ]| to$9$ say about$4$ the boys; but you have your sister's letter, 
218:311,14[K  ]| and every*thing is down$5$ at full length there we may$1$ be 
218:311,15[K  ]| sure. My charge$0$ would be much more concise than her's, 
218:311,16[K  ]| and probably not much in$4$ the same spirit; all that$6#1$ I have 
218:311,17[K  ]| to$9$ recommend being$1$ comprised in$5$, do not spoil them, and 
218:311,18[K  ]| do not physic them." 
218:311,19[A  ]| "I rather hope$1$ to$9$ satisfy you both," 
218:311,19['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
218:311,19[A  ]| "for$3$ 
218:311,20[A  ]| I shall do all in$4$ my power to$9$ make$1$ them happy, which$6#1$ 
218:311,21[A  ]| will$1$ be enough for$4$ $EM#L$Isabella; and happiness must preclude 
218:311,22[A  ]| false indulgence and physic." 
218:311,23[K  ]| "And if you find them troublesome, you must send 
218:311,24[K  ]| them home again." 
218:311,25[A  ]| "That$6#2$ is very likely. You think so$5#2$, do not you?" 
218:311,26[K  ]| "I hope$1$ I am aware that$3$ they may$1$ be too$5#1$ noisy for$4$ your 
218:311,27[K  ]| father ~~ or even$5$ may$1$ be some incumbrance to$4$ you, if your 
218:311,28[K  ]| visiting-engagements continue to$9$ increase$1$ as much as they 
218:311,29[K  ]| have done lately." 
218:311,30[A  ]| "Increase$1$!" 
218:311,31[K  ]| "Certainly; you must be sensible$2#1$ that$3$ the last$2$ half 
218:311,32[K  ]| year has made a great difference in$4$ your way of life." 
218:311,33[A  ]| "Difference! No$7$ indeed I am not." 
218:311,34[K  ]| "There can be no$2$ doubt$0$ of your being$1$ much more 
218:311,35[K  ]| engaged with company than you used to$9$ be. Witness$1$ this 
218:311,36[K  ]| very time. Here am I come down$5$ for$4$ only one day, and 
218:311,37[K  ]| you are engaged with a dinner-party! ~~ When did it 
218:311,38[K  ]| happen before$5$, or any*thing like$4$ it? Your neighbourhood 
218:312,01[K  ]| is increasing, and you mix more with it. A little while$0$ 
218:312,02[K  ]| ago, every letter to$4$ $EM#L$Isabella brought an account$0$ of fresh 
218:312,03[K  ]| gaieties; dinners at $EM#F$Mr%*Cole's, or balls at the Crown$0#1$. 
218:312,04[K  ]| The difference which$6#1$ Randalls, Randalls alone makes in$4$ 
218:312,05[K  ]| your goings-on, is very great." 
218:312,06[B  ]| "Yes," 
218:312,06['  ]| said his brother quickly, 
218:312,06[B  ]| "it is Randalls that$6#1$ 
218:312,07[B  ]| does it all." 
218:312,08[K  ]| "Very well$5$ ~~ and as Randalls, I suppose, is not likely 
218:312,09[K  ]| to$9$ have less influence$0$ than heretofore, it strikes me as 
218:312,10[K  ]| a possible thing, $EM#A$Emma, that$3$ $EM#L1$Henry and $EM#L2$John may$1$ be 
218:312,11[K  ]| sometimes in$4$ the way. And if they are, I only beg you to$9$ 
218:312,12[K  ]| send them home." 
218:312,13[B  ]| "No$7$," 
218:312,13['  ]| cried $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
218:312,13[B  ]| "that$6#2$ need$1$ not be the 
218:312,14[B  ]| consequence. Let them be sent to$4$ Donwell. I shall 
218:312,15[B  ]| certainly be at leisure." 
218:312,16[A  ]| "Upon$4$ my word," 
218:312,16['  ]| exclaimed $EM#A$Emma, 
218:312,16[A  ]| "you amuse me! 
218:312,17[A  ]| I should like$1$ to$9$ know how many of all my numerous 
218:312,18[A  ]| engagements take place$0$ without your being$1$ of the party; 
218:312,19[A  ]| and why I am to$9$ be supposed in$4$ danger of wanting leisure 
218:312,20[A  ]| to$9$ attend to$4$ the little boys. These amazing engagements 
218:312,21[A  ]| of mine$6$ ~~ what have they been? Dining once with the 
218:312,22[A  ]| $EM#F1$Coles ~~ and having a ball$0#2$ talked of, which$6#1$ never took 
218:312,23[A  ]| place$0$. I can understand you ~~ 
218:312,23['  ]| (nodding at $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley) ~~ 
218:312,24[A  ]| your good fortune in$4$ meeting with so$5#1$ many 
218:312,25[A  ]| of your friends at once here, delights$1$ you too$5#1$ much to$9$ pass$1$ 
218:312,26[A  ]| unnoticed. But you, 
218:312,26['  ]| (turning to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley,) 
218:312,26[A  ]| who$6#1$ 
218:312,27[A  ]| know how very, very seldom I am ever two hours from 
218:312,28[A  ]| Hartfield, why should you foresee such a series of dissipation 
218:312,29[A  ]| for$4$ me, I cannot imagine. And as to$4$ my dear$2#1$ little 
218:312,30[A  ]| boys, I must say, that$3$ if aunt $EM#A$Emma has not time for$4$ 
218:312,31[A  ]| them, I do not think they would fare$1$ much better with 
218:312,32[A  ]| uncle $EM#B$Knightley, who$6#1$ is absent from home about$4$ five 
218:312,33[A  ]| hours where she is absent one ~~ and who$6#1$, when he is at 
218:312,34[A  ]| home, is either reading to$4$ himself or settling his accounts." 
218:312,35['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley seemed to$9$ be trying not to$9$ smile$1$; and 
218:312,36['  ]| succeeded without difficulty, upon$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's beginning 
218:312,37['  ]| to$9$ talk$1$ to$4$ him. 
301:315,01['  ]| A very little quiet$2$ reflection was enough to$9$ satisfy $EM#A$Emma 
301:315,02['  ]| as to$4$ the nature of her agitation on$4$ hearing this news of 
301:315,03['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. She was soon convinced that$3$ 
301:315,03@a   | it was not 
301:315,04@a   | for$4$ herself she was feeling at all apprehensive or embarrassed; 
301:315,05@a   | it was for$4$ him. Her own$2$ attachment had really 
301:315,06@a   | subsided into a mere nothing; it was not worth thinking 
301:315,07@a   | of; ~~ but if he, who$6#1$ had undoubtedly been always so$5#1$ much 
301:315,08@a   | the most in$4$ love$0$ of the two, were to$9$ be returning with the 
301:315,09@a   | same warmth of sentiment which$6#1$ he had taken away, it 
301:315,10@a   | would be very distressing. If a separation of two months 
301:315,11@a   | should not have cooled him, there were dangers and evils 
301:315,12@a   | before$4$ her; ~~ caution$0$ for$4$ him and for$4$ herself would be 
301:315,13@a   | necessary. She did not mean$1$ to$9$ have her own$2$ affections 
301:315,14@a   | entangled again, and it would be incumbent on$4$ her to$9$ avoid 
301:315,15@a   | any encouragement of his. 
301:315,16@a   | She wished she might be able to$9$ keep him from an 
301:315,17@a   | absolute declaration. That$6#2$ would be so$5#1$ very painful 
301:315,18@a   | a conclusion of their present$2$ acquaintance! ~~ and yet, she 
301:315,19@a   | could not help$1$ rather anticipating something decisive. 
301:315,20@a   | She felt as if the spring$0$ would not pass$1$ without bringing 
301:315,21@a   | a crisis, an event, a something to$9$ alter her present$2$ composed 
301:315,22@a   | and tranquil state$0$. 
301:315,23['  ]| It was not very long, though rather longer than $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
301:315,24['  ]| had foreseen, before$3$ she had the power of forming 
301:315,25['  ]| some opinion of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's feelings. The Enscombe 
301:315,26['  ]| family were not in$4$ town quite so$5#1$ soon as had been imagined, 
301:315,27['  ]| but he was at Highbury very soon afterwards. He rode 
301:315,28['  ]| down$5$ for$4$ a couple of hours; he could not yet do more; 
301:315,29['  ]| but as he came from Randall's immediately to$4$ Hartfield, 
301:316,01['  ]| she could then exercise$1$ all her quick$2$ observation, and 
301:316,02['  ]| speedily determine how he was influenced, and how she 
301:316,03['  ]| must act$1$. They met with the utmost friendliness. There 
301:316,04['  ]| could be no$2$ doubt$0$ of his great pleasure in$4$ seeing her. But 
301:316,05['  ]| she had an almost instant$2$ doubt$0$ of his caring for$4$ her as he 
301:316,06['  ]| had done, of his feeling the same tenderness in$4$ the same 
301:316,07['  ]| degree. She watched him well$5$. 
301:316,07@a   | It was a clear$2$ thing he 
301:316,08@a   | was less in$4$ love$0$ than he had been. Absence, with the 
301:316,09@a   | conviction probably of her indifference, had produced this 
301:316,10@a   | very natural$2$ and very desirable effect$0$. 
301:316,11@a   | He was in$4$ high spirits; as ready to$9$ talk$1$ and laugh$1$ as 
301:316,12@a   | ever, and seemed delighted to$9$ speak of his former visit$0$, 
301:316,13@a   | and recur to$4$ old stories: and he was not without agitation. 
301:316,14['  ]| It was not in$4$ his calmness that$6#1$ she read his comparative 
301:316,15['  ]| indifference. 
301:316,15@a   | He was not calm$2$; his spirits were evidently 
301:316,16@a   | fluttered; there was restlessness about$4$ him. Lively as he 
301:316,17@a   | was, it seemed a liveliness that$6#1$ did not satisfy himself; 
301:316,18@a   | but what decided her belief on$4$ the subject$0$, was his staying 
301:316,19@a   | only a quarter$0#1$ of an hour, and hurrying away to$9$ make$1$ 
301:316,20@a   | other calls$0$ in$4$ Highbury. 
301:316,20[E  ]| "He had seen a group of old 
301:316,21[E  ]| acquaintance in$4$ the street as he passed ~~ he had not 
301:316,22[E  ]| stopped, he would not stop$1$ for$4$ more than a word ~~ but he 
301:316,23[E  ]| had the vanity to$9$ think they would be disappointed if he 
301:316,24[E  ]| did not call$1$, and much as he wished to$9$ stay$1$ longer at 
301:316,25[E  ]| Hartfield, he must hurry$1$ off." 
301:316,26['  ]| She had no$2$ doubt$0$ as to$4$ his being$1$ less in$4$ love$0$ ~~ but neither 
301:316,27['  ]| his agitated spirits, nor his hurrying away, seemed like$4$ 
301:316,28['  ]| a perfect$2$ cure$0$; and she was rather inclined to$9$ think it 
301:316,29['  ]| implied a dread$0$ of her returning power, and a discreet 
301:316,30['  ]| resolution of not trusting himself with her long. 
301:316,31['  ]| This was the only visit$0$ from $EM#E$Frank*Churchill in$4$ the 
301:316,32['  ]| course$0$ of ten days. 
301:316,32@e   | He was often hoping, intending to$9$ 
301:316,33@e   | come ~~ but was always prevented. His aunt could not 
301:316,34@e   | bear$1$ to$9$ have him leave$1$ her. 
301:316,34['  ]| Such was his own$2$ account$0$ at 
301:316,35['  ]| Randall's. 
301:316,35@a   | If he were quite sincere, if he really tried to$9$ 
301:316,36@a   | come, it was to$9$ be inferred that$3$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's removal 
301:316,37@a   | to$4$ London had been of no$2$ service to$4$ the wilful or nervous 
301:316,38@a   | part$0$ of her disorder. That$3$ she was really ill was very 
301:317,01@a   | certain; he had declared himself convinced of it, at 
301:317,02@a   | Randall's. 
301:317,02@e   | Though much might be fancy$0$, he could not 
301:317,03@e   | doubt$1$, when he looked back$5$, that$3$ she was in$4$ a weaker 
301:317,04@e   | state$0$ of health than she had been half a year ago. He did 
301:317,05@e   | not believe it to$9$ proceed from any*thing that$6#1$ care$0$ and 
301:317,06@e   | medicine might not remove$1$, or at least that$3$ she might not 
301:317,07@e   | have many years of existence before$4$ her; but he could not 
301:317,08@e   | be prevailed on$5$ by$4$ all his father's doubts$0$, to$9$ say that$3$ her 
301:317,09@e   | complaints were merely imaginary, or that$3$ she was as 
301:317,10@e   | strong as ever. 
301:317,11['  ]| It soon appeared that$3$ London was not the place$0$ for$4$ her. 
301:317,12['  ]| She could not endure its noise. Her nerves were under 
301:317,13['  ]| continual irritation and suffering; and by$4$ the ten days' 
301:317,14['  ]| end$0$, her nephew's letter to$4$ Randall's communicated 
301:317,15['  ]| a change$0$ of plan. 
301:317,15@e   | They were going to$9$ remove$1$ immediately 
301:317,16@e   | to$4$ Richmond. $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill had been recommended to$4$ 
301:317,17@e   | the medical skill of an eminent person there, and had 
301:317,18@e   | otherwise a fancy$0$ for$4$ the place$0$. A ready-furnished house 
301:317,19@e   | in$4$ a favourite$2$ spot was engaged, and much benefit expected 
301:317,20@e   | from the change$0$. 
301:317,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma heard that$3$ $EM#E$Frank wrote in$4$ the highest spirits of 
301:317,22['  ]| this arrangement, and seemed most fully to$9$ appreciate 
301:317,23['  ]| the blessing of having two months before$4$ him of such near$2$ 
301:317,24['  ]| neighbourhood to$4$ many dear$2#1$ friends ~~ for$3$ the house was 
301:317,25['  ]| taken for$4$ May$0$ and June. She was told that$3$ now he wrote 
301:317,26['  ]| with the greatest confidence of being$1$ often with them, 
301:317,27['  ]| almost as often as he could even$5$ wish$1$. 
301:317,28['  ]| $EM#A$Emma saw how $EM#N$Mr%*Weston understood these joyous 
301:317,29['  ]| prospects. 
301:317,29@a   | He was considering her as the source of all the 
301:317,30@a   | happiness they offered. She hoped it was not so$5#2$. Two 
301:317,31@a   | months must bring it to$4$ the proof. 
301:317,32@a   | $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's own$2$ happiness was indisputable. 
301:317,32@n   | He was 
301:317,33@n   | quite delighted. It was the very circumstance he could 
301:317,34@n   | have wished for$4$. Now, it would be really having $EM#E$Frank 
301:317,35@n   | in$4$ their neighbourhood. What were nine miles to$4$ a young 
301:317,36@n   | man? ~~ An hour's ride$0$. He would be always coming over. 
301:317,37@n   | The difference in$4$ that$6#2$ respect$0$ of Richmond and London 
301:317,38@n   | was enough to$9$ make$1$ the whole$2$ difference of seeing him 
301:318,01@n   | always and seeing him never. Sixteen miles ~~ nay, 
301:318,02@n   | eighteen ~~ it must be full eighteen to$4$ Manchester-street ~~ 
301:318,03@n   | was a serious$2$ obstacle. Were he ever able to$9$ get away, 
301:318,04@n   | the day would be spent in$4$ coming and returning. There 
301:318,05@n   | was no$2$ comfort$0$ in$4$ having him in$4$ London; he might as 
301:318,06@n   | well$5$ be at Enscombe; but Richmond was the very 
301:318,07@n   | distance$0$ for$4$ easy intercourse. Better than nearer! 
301:318,08['  ]| One good thing was immediately brought to$4$ a certainty 
301:318,09['  ]| by$4$ this removal, ~~ the ball$0#2$ at the Crown$0#1$. It had not been 
301:318,10['  ]| forgotten before$5$, but it had been soon acknowledged vain 
301:318,11['  ]| to$9$ attempt$1$ to$9$ fix a day. Now, however, it was absolutely 
301:318,12['  ]| to$9$ be; every preparation was resumed, and very soon 
301:318,13['  ]| after$3$ the $EM#W$Churchills had removed to$4$ Richmond, a few lines 
301:318,14['  ]| from $EM#E$Frank, to$9$ say that$3$ 
301:318,14@e   | his aunt felt already much better 
301:318,15@e   | for$4$ the change$0$, and that$3$ he had no$2$ doubt$0$ of being$1$ able to$9$ 
301:318,16@e   | join them for$4$ twenty-four hours at any given time, 
301:318,16['  ]| induced 
301:318,17['  ]| them to$9$ name$1$ as early a day as possible. 
301:318,18['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's ball$0#2$ was to$9$ be a real thing. A very few 
301:318,19['  ]| to-morrows stood between the young people of Highbury 
301:318,20['  ]| and happiness. 
301:318,21['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was resigned. The time of year lightened 
301:318,22['  ]| the evil to$4$ him. 
301:318,22@p   | May$0$ was better for$4$ every*thing than 
301:318,23@p   | February. $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates was engaged to$9$ spend the evening 
301:318,24@p   | at Hartfield, $EM#ZI$James had due$2$ notice$0$, and he sanguinely 
301:318,25@p   | hoped that$3$ neither dear$2#1$ little $EM#L1$Henry nor dear$2#1$ little $EM#L2$John 
301:318,26@p   | would have any*thing the matter with them, while$3$ dear$2#1$ 
301:318,27@p   | $EM#A$Emma was gone. 
302:319,01['  ]| No$2$ misfortune occurred, again to$9$ prevent the ball$0#2$. 
302:319,02['  ]| The day approached, the day arrived; and, after$4$ a morning 
302:319,03['  ]| of some anxious watching, $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, in$4$ all the 
302:319,04['  ]| certainty of his own$2$ self, reached Randall's before$4$ dinner, 
302:319,05['  ]| and every*thing was safe. 
302:319,06['  ]| No$2$ second$2$ meeting had there yet been between him and 
302:319,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma. 
302:319,07@a   | The room at the Crown$0#1$ was to$9$ witness$1$ it; ~~ but 
302:319,08@a   | it would be better than a common$2$ meeting in$4$ a crowd. 
302:319,09@a   | $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had been so$5#1$ very earnest in$4$ his entreaties for$4$ 
302:319,10@a   | her early attendance, for$4$ her arriving there as soon as 
302:319,11@a   | possible after$4$ themselves, for$4$ the purpose of taking her 
302:319,12@a   | opinion as to$4$ the propriety and comfort$0$ of the rooms before$3$ 
302:319,13@a   | any other persons came, that$3$ she could not refuse him, 
302:319,14@a   | and must therefore spend some quiet$2$ interval in$4$ the 
302:319,15@a   | young man's company. 
302:319,15['  ]| She was to$9$ convey $EM#M$Harriet, and 
302:319,16['  ]| they drove to$4$ the Crown$0#1$ in$4$ good time, the Randalls' party 
302:319,17['  ]| just$5$ sufficiently before$4$ them. 
302:319,18@a   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill seemed to$9$ have been on$4$ the watch$0$; 
302:319,19@a   | and though he did not say much, his eyes declared that$3$ he 
302:319,20@a   | meant to$9$ have a delightful evening. 
302:319,20['  ]| They all walked 
302:319,21['  ]| about$5$ together, to$9$ see that$3$ every*thing was as it should be; 
302:319,22['  ]| and within a few minutes were joined by$4$ the contents of 
302:319,23['  ]| another carriage, which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma could not hear the sound$0$ 
302:319,24['  ]| of at first, without great surprise$0$. 
302:319,24@a   | "So$5#1$ unreasonably 
302:319,25@a   | early!" 
302:319,25['  ]| she was going to$9$ exclaim; but she presently 
302:319,26['  ]| found that$3$ it was a family of old friends, who$6#1$ were coming, 
302:319,27['  ]| like$4$ herself, by$4$ particular desire$0$, to$9$ help$1$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's 
302:319,28['  ]| judgement; and they were so$5#1$ very closely followed by$4$ 
302:319,29['  ]| another carriage of cousins, who$6#1$ had been entreated to$9$ 
302:319,30['  ]| come early with the same distinguishing earnestness, on$4$ 
302:319,31['  ]| the same errand, that$3$ it seemed as if half the company 
302:319,32['  ]| might soon be collected together for$4$ the purpose of 
302:319,33['  ]| preparatory inspection. 
302:319,34['  ]| $EM#A$Emma perceived that$3$ her taste was not the only taste on$4$ 
302:320,01['  ]| which$6#1$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston depended, and felt, that$3$ 
302:320,01@a   | to$9$ be the 
302:320,02@a   | favourite$0$ and intimate$0$ of a man who$6#1$ had so$5#1$ many intimates 
302:320,03@a   | and confidantes, was not the very first distinction in$4$ the 
302:320,04@a   | scale of vanity. She liked his open$2$ manners, but a little 
302:320,05@a   | less of open-heartedness would have made him a higher 
302:320,06@a   | character. ~~ General$2$ benevolence, but not general$2$ friendship, 
302:320,07@a   | made a man what he ought to$9$ be. ~~ She could fancy$1$ 
302:320,08@a   | such a man. 
302:320,09['  ]| The whole$2$ party walked about$5$, and looked, and praised 
302:320,10['  ]| again; and then, having nothing else to$9$ do, formed a sort 
302:320,11['  ]| of half circle round$4$ the fire$0$, to$9$ observe in$4$ their various 
302:320,12['  ]| modes, till other subjects were started, that$3$, though \May$0$\, 
302:320,13['  ]| a fire$0$ in$4$ the evening was still$5$ very pleasant. 
302:320,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma found that$3$ it was not $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's fault that$3$ 
302:320,15['  ]| the number of privy counsellors was not yet larger. They 
302:320,16['  ]| had stopped at $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's door to$9$ offer$1$ the use$0$ of their 
302:320,17['  ]| carriage, but the aunt and niece were to$9$ be brought by$4$ 
302:320,18['  ]| the $EM#H1$Eltons. 
302:320,19@a   | $EM#E$Frank was standing by$4$ her, but not steadily; there was 
302:320,20@a   | a restlessness, which$6#1$ showed a mind$0$ not at ease$0$. He was 
302:320,21@a   | looking about$5$, he was going to$4$ the door, he was watching 
302:320,22@a   | for$4$ the sound$0$ of other carriages, ~~ impatient to$9$ begin, or 
302:320,23@a   | afraid of being$1$ always near$4$ her. 
302:320,24['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was spoken of. 
302:320,24[E  ]| "I think she must be here 
302:320,25[E  ]| soon," 
302:320,25['  ]| said he. 
302:320,25[E  ]| "I have a great curiosity to$9$ see $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, 
302:320,26[E  ]| I have heard so$5#1$ much of her. It cannot be long, I think, 
302:320,27[E  ]| before$3$ she comes." 
302:320,28['  ]| A carriage was heard. He was on$4$ the move$0$ immediately; 
302:320,29['  ]| but coming back$5$, said, 
302:320,30[E  ]| "I am forgetting that$3$ I am not acquainted with her. 
302:320,31[E  ]| I have never seen either $EM#H$Mr% or $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. I have no$2$ 
302:320,32[E  ]| business to$9$ put myself forward$5$." 
302:320,33['  ]| $EM#H$Mr% and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton appeared; and all the smiles and 
302:320,34['  ]| the proprieties passed. 
302:320,35[N  ]| "But $EM#D$Miss*Bates and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax!" 
302:320,35['  ]| said $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
302:320,36['  ]| looking about$5$. 
302:320,36[N  ]| "We thought$1$ you were to$9$ bring them." 
302:320,37['  ]| The mistake$0$ had been slight$2$. The carriage was sent for$4$ 
302:320,38['  ]| them now. $EM#A$Emma longed to$9$ know what $EM#E$Frank's first 
302:321,01['  ]| opinion of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton might be; how he was affected by$4$ 
302:321,02['  ]| the studied elegance of her dress$0$, and her smiles of graciousness. 
302:321,03['  ]| He was immediately qualifying himself to$9$ form$1$ an 
302:321,04['  ]| opinion, by$4$ giving her very proper attention, after$3$ the 
302:321,05['  ]| introduction had passed. 
302:321,06['  ]| In$4$ a few minutes the carriage returned. ~~ Somebody 
302:321,07['  ]| talked of rain$0$. ~~ 
302:321,07[E  ]| "I will$1$ see that$3$ there are umbrellas, sir," 
302:321,08['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank to$4$ his father: 
302:321,08[E  ]| "$EM#D$Miss*Bates must not be 
302:321,09[E  ]| forgotten:" 
302:321,09['  ]| and away he went. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was following; 
302:321,10['  ]| but $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton detained him, to$9$ gratify him by$4$ her 
302:321,11['  ]| opinion of his son; and so$5#1$ briskly did she begin, that$3$ the 
302:321,12['  ]| young man himself, though by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ moving slowly, 
302:321,13['  ]| could hardly be out$5$ of hearing. 
302:321,14[I  ]| "A very fine young man indeed, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. You 
302:321,15[I  ]| know I candidly told you I should form$1$ my own$2$ opinion; 
302:321,16[I  ]| and I am happy to$9$ say that$3$ I am extremely pleased with 
302:321,17[I  ]| him. ~~ You may$1$ believe me. I never compliment$1$. I think 
302:321,18[I  ]| him a very handsome young man, and his manners are 
302:321,19[I  ]| precisely what I like$1$ and approve ~~ so$5#1$ truly the gentleman, 
302:321,20[I  ]| without the least conceit or puppyism. You must know 
302:321,21[I  ]| I have a vast dislike$0$ to$4$ puppies ~~ quite a horror of them. 
302:321,22[I  ]| They were never tolerated at Maple*Grove. Neither 
302:321,23[I  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Suckling nor me had ever any patience with them; 
302:321,24[I  ]| and we used sometimes to$9$ say very cutting things! 
302:321,25[I  ]| $EM#V$Selina, who$6#1$ is mild almost to$4$ a fault, bore$1#1$ with them 
302:321,26[I  ]| much better." 
302:321,27['  ]| While$3$ she talked of his son, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's attention was 
302:321,28['  ]| chained; but when she got to$4$ Maple*Grove, he could 
302:321,29['  ]| recollect that$3$ there were ladies just$5$ arriving to$9$ be attended 
302:321,30['  ]| to$5$, and with happy smiles must hurry$1$ away. 
302:321,31['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton turned to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
302:321,31[I  ]| "I have no$2$ doubt$0$ 
302:321,32[I  ]| of its being$1$ our carriage with $EM#D$Miss*Bates and $EM#J$Jane. Our 
302:321,33[I  ]| coachman and horses are so$5#1$ extremely expeditious! ~~ 
302:321,34[I  ]| I believe we drive$1$ faster than anybody. ~~ What a pleasure 
302:321,35[I  ]| it is to$9$ send one's carriage for$4$ a friend! ~~ I understand 
302:321,36[I  ]| you were so$5#1$ kind$2$ as to$9$ offer$1$, but another time it will$1$ be 
302:321,37[I  ]| quite unnecessary. You may$1$ be very sure I shall always 
302:321,38[I  ]| take care$0$ of \them\." 
302:322,01['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, escorted by$4$ the two 
302:322,02['  ]| gentlemen, walked into the room; and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton seemed 
302:322,03['  ]| to$9$ think it as much her duty as $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's to$9$ receive 
302:322,04['  ]| them. Her gestures and movements might be understood 
302:322,05['  ]| by$4$ any*one who$6#1$ looked on$5$ like$4$ $EM#A$Emma, but her words, 
302:322,06['  ]| every*body's words, were soon lost under the incessant 
302:322,07['  ]| flow$0$ of $EM#D$Miss*Bates, who$6#1$ came in$5$ talking, and had not 
302:322,08['  ]| finished her speech under many minutes after$4$ her being$1$ 
302:322,09['  ]| admitted into the circle at the fire$0$. As the door opened 
302:322,10['  ]| she was heard, 
302:322,11[D  ]| "So$5#1$ very obliging of you! ~~ No$2$ rain$0$ at all. Nothing to$9$ 
302:322,12[D  ]| signify. I do not care$1$ for$4$ myself. Quite thick shoes. 
302:322,13[D  ]| And $EM#J$Jane declares ~~ Well$7$! ~~ 
302:322,13['  ]| (as soon as she was within the 
302:322,14['  ]| door) 
302:322,14[D  ]| Well$7$! This is brilliant indeed! ~~ This is admirable! 
302:322,15[D  ]| ~~ Excellently contrived, upon$4$ my word. Nothing wanting. 
302:322,16[D  ]| Could not have imagined it. ~~ So$5#1$ well$5$ lighted up$5$. ~~ 
302:322,17[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane, $EM#J$Jane, look$1$ ~~ did you ever see any*thing? Oh! 
302:322,18[D  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, you must really have had $EM#Z2$Aladdin's lamp. 
302:322,19[D  ]| Good $EM#ZZO$Mrs%*Stokes would not know her own$2$ room again. 
302:322,20[D  ]| I saw her as I came in$5$; she was standing in$4$ the entrance. 
302:322,21[D  ]| ""Oh! $EM#ZZO$Mrs%*Stokes,"" said I ~~ but I had not time for$4$ 
302:322,22[D  ]| more." 
302:322,22['  ]| ~~ She was now met by$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. ~~ 
302:322,22[D  ]| "Very well$5$, 
302:322,23[D  ]| I thank you, ma'am. I hope$1$ you are quite well$5$. Very 
302:322,24[D  ]| happy to$9$ hear it. So$5#1$ afraid you might have a headach! ~~ 
302:322,25[D  ]| seeing you pass$1$ by$5$ so$5#1$ often, and knowing how much 
302:322,26[D  ]| trouble$0$ you must have. Delighted to$9$ hear it indeed. Ah! 
302:322,27[D  ]| dear$2#1$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, so$5#1$ obliged to$4$ you for$4$ the carriage! ~~ 
excellent 
302:322,28[D  ]| time. ~~ $EM#J$Jane and I quite ready. Did not keep the horses 
302:322,29[D  ]| a moment. Most comfortable carriage. ~~ Oh! and I am 
302:322,30[D  ]| sure our thanks are due$2$ to$4$ you, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, on$4$ that$6#2$ score. 
302:322,31[D  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton had most kindly sent $EM#J$Jane a note$0$, or we should 
302:322,32[D  ]| have been. ~~ But two such offers$0$ in$4$ one day! ~~ Never were 
302:322,33[D  ]| such neighbours. I said to$4$ my mother, ""Upon$4$ my word, 
302:322,34[D  ]| ma'am ~~."" Thank you, my mother is remarkably well$5$. 
302:322,35[D  ]| Gone to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's. I made her take her shawl ~~ 
302:322,36[D  ]| for$3$ the evenings are not warm$2$ ~~ her large new shawl ~~ $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon's 
302:322,37[D  ]| wedding present$0#2$. ~~ So$5#1$ kind$2$ of her to$9$ think of my 
302:322,38[D  ]| mother! Bought at Weymouth, you know ~~ $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon's 
302:323,01[D  ]| choice$0$. There were three others, $EM#J$Jane says, which$6#1$ they 
302:323,02[D  ]| hesitated about$4$ some time. $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell rather 
302:323,03[D  ]| preferred an olive. My dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, are you sure you did not 
302:323,04[D  ]| wet$1$ your feet? ~~ It was but a drop$0$ or two, but I am so$5#1$ 
302:323,05[D  ]| afraid: ~~ but $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill was so$5#1$ extremely ~~ and 
302:323,06[D  ]| there was a mat to$9$ step$1$ upon$4$ ~~ I shall never forget his 
302:323,07[D  ]| extreme$2$ politeness. ~~ Oh! $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, I must tell 
302:323,08[D  ]| you my mother's spectacles have never been in$4$ fault since; 
302:323,09[D  ]| the rivet never came out$5$ again. My mother often talks of 
302:323,10[D  ]| your goodnature. Does not she, $EM#J$Jane? ~~ Do not we often 
302:323,11[D  ]| talk$1$ of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill? ~~ Ah! here's $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. ~~ 
302:323,12[D  ]| Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, how do you do? ~~ Very 
302:323,13[D  ]| well$5$ I thank you, quite well$5$. This is meeting quite in$4$ 
302:323,14[D  ]| fairy-land! ~~ Such a transformation! ~~ Must not compliment$1$, 
302:323,15[D  ]| I know ~~ 
302:323,15['  ]| (eyeing $EM#A$Emma most complacently) 
302:323,15[D  ]| ~~ that$6#2$ 
302:323,16[D  ]| would be rude ~~ but upon$4$ my word, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you 
302:323,17[D  ]| do look$1$ ~~ how do you like$1$ $EM#J$Jane's hair? ~~ You are a judge$0$. ~~ 
302:323,18[D  ]| She did it all herself. Quite wonderful how she does her 
302:323,19[D  ]| hair! ~~ No$2$ hairdresser from London I think could. ~~ Ah! 
302:323,20[D  ]| $EM#ZH$Dr%*Hughes I declare ~~ and $EM#ZH1$Mrs%*Hughes. Must go and 
302:323,21[D  ]| speak to$4$ $EM#ZH$Dr% and $EM#ZH1$Mrs%*Hughes for$4$ a moment. ~~ How do 
302:323,22[D  ]| you do? How do you do? ~~ Very well$5$, I thank you. This 
302:323,23[D  ]| is delightful, is not it? ~~ Where's dear$2#1$ $EM#ZH2$Mr%*Richard? ~~ Oh! 
302:323,24[D  ]| there he is. Don't disturb him. Much better employed 
302:323,25[D  ]| talking to$4$ the young ladies. How do you do, $EM#ZH2$Mr%*Richard? 
302:323,26[D  ]| ~~ I saw you the other day as you rode through$4$ the town 
302:323,27[D  ]| ~~ $EM#ZK1$Mrs%*Otway, I protest! ~~ and good $EM#ZK$Mr%*Otway, and 
302:323,28[D  ]| $EM#ZK4$Miss*Otway and $EM#ZK5$Miss*Caroline. ~~ Such a host of friends! ~~ 
302:323,29[D  ]| and $EM#ZK2$Mr%*George and $EM#ZK3$Mr%*Arthur! ~~ How do you do? How 
302:323,30[D  ]| do you all do? ~~ Quite well$5$, I am much obliged to$4$ you. 
302:323,31[D  ]| Never better. ~~ Don't I hear another carriage? ~~ Who$6#2$ can 
302:323,32[D  ]| this be? ~~ very likely the worthy $EM#F1$Coles. ~~ Upon$4$ my word, 
302:323,33[D  ]| this is charming to$9$ be standing about$5$ among such friends! 
302:323,34[D  ]| And such a noble fire$0$! ~~ I am quite roasted. No$2$ coffee, 
302:323,35[D  ]| I thank you, for$4$ me ~~ never take coffee. ~~ A little tea if 
302:323,36[D  ]| you please, sir, by*and*bye, ~~ no$2$ hurry$0$ ~~ Oh! here it comes. 
302:323,37[D  ]| Everything so$5#1$ good!" 
302:323,38['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill returned to$4$ his station by$4$ $EM#A$Emma; and 
302:324,01['  ]| as soon as $EM#D$Miss*Bates was quiet$2$, she found herself necessarily 
302:324,02['  ]| overhearing the discourse of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
302:324,03['  ]| who$6#1$ were standing a little way behind her. ~~ 
302:324,03@a   | He 
302:324,04@a   | was thoughtful. Whether he were overhearing too$5#2$, she 
302:324,05@a   | could not determine. 
302:324,05['  ]| After$4$ a good many compliments to$4$ 
302:324,06['  ]| $EM#J$Jane on$4$ her dress$0$ and look$0$, compliments very quietly and 
302:324,07['  ]| properly taken, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was evidently wanting to$9$ be 
302:324,08['  ]| complimented herself ~~ and it was, 
302:324,08[I  ]| "How do you like$1$ my 
302:324,09[I  ]| gown? ~~ How do you like$1$ my trimming? ~~ How has 
302:324,10[I  ]| $EM#ZZS$Wright done my hair?" ~~ 
302:324,10['  ]| with many other relative 
302:324,11['  ]| questions, all answered with patient politeness. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
302:324,12['  ]| then said, 
302:324,13[I  ]| "Nobody can think less of dress$0$ in$4$ general$0$ than I do ~~ 
302:324,14[I  ]| but upon$4$ such an occasion$0$ as this, when everybody's eyes 
302:324,15[I  ]| are so$5#1$ much upon$4$ me, and in$4$ compliment$0$ to$4$ the $EM#N1$Westons ~~ 
302:324,16[I  ]| who$6#1$ I have no$2$ doubt$0$ are giving this ball$0#2$ chiefly to$9$ do me 
302:324,17[I  ]| honour$0$ ~~ I would not wish$1$ to$9$ be inferior to$4$ others. And 
302:324,18[I  ]| I see very few pearls in$4$ the room except mine$6$. ~~ So$3$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
302:324,19[I  ]| is a capital dancer, I understand. We shall see 
302:324,20[I  ]| if our styles suit$1$. ~~ A fine young man certainly is $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. 
302:324,21[I  ]| I like$1$ him very well$5$." 
302:324,22['  ]| At this moment $EM#E$Frank again began talking so$5#1$ vigorously, 
302:324,23['  ]| that$3$ $EM#A$Emma could not but imagine he had overheard his 
302:324,24['  ]| own$2$ praises, and did not want$1$ to$9$ hear more; ~~ and the 
302:324,25['  ]| voices of the ladies were drowned for$4$ awhile, till another 
302:324,26['  ]| suspension brought $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's tones again distinctly 
302:324,27['  ]| forward$5$. ~~ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had just$5$ joined them, and his wife 
302:324,28['  ]| was exclaiming, 
302:324,29[I  ]| "Oh! you have found us out$5$ at last$0$, have you, in$4$ our 
302:324,30[I  ]| seclusion? ~~ I was this moment telling $EM#J$Jane, I thought$1$ 
302:324,31[I  ]| you would begin to$9$ be impatient for$4$ tidings of us." 
302:324,32[E  ]| "$EM#J$Jane!" ~~ 
302:324,32['  ]| repeated $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, with a look$0$ of 
302:324,33['  ]| surprise$0$ and displeasure. ~~ 
302:324,33[E  ]| "That$6#2$ is easy ~~ but $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
302:324,34[E  ]| does not disapprove it, I suppose." 
302:324,35[A  ]| "How do you like$1$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton?" 
302:324,35['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma in$4$ 
302:324,36['  ]| a whisper$0$. 
302:324,37[E  ]| "Not at all." 
302:324,38[A  ]| "You are ungrateful." 
302:325,01[E  ]| "Ungrateful! ~~ What do you mean$1$?" 
302:325,01['  ]| Then changing 
302:325,02['  ]| from a frown$0$ to$4$ a smile$0$ ~~ 
302:325,02[E  ]| "No$7$, do not tell me ~~ I do not 
302:325,03[E  ]| want$1$ to$9$ know what you mean$1$. ~~ Where is my father? ~~ 
302:325,04[E  ]| When are we to$9$ begin dancing?" 
302:325,05['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could hardly understand him; 
302:325,05@a   | he seemed in$4$ an 
302:325,06@a   | odd humour. 
302:325,06['  ]| He walked off to$9$ find his father, but was 
302:325,07['  ]| quickly back$5$ again with both $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. He 
302:325,08['  ]| had met with them in$4$ a little perplexity, which$6#1$ must be 
302:325,09['  ]| laid before$4$ $EM#A$Emma. It had just$5$ occurred to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
302:325,10['  ]| that$3$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton must be asked to$9$ begin the ball$0#2$; that$3$ she 
302:325,11['  ]| would expect it; which$6#1$ interfered with all their wishes$0$ 
302:325,12['  ]| of giving $EM#A$Emma that$6#2$ distinction. ~~ $EM#A$Emma heard the sad 
302:325,13['  ]| truth with fortitude. 
302:325,14[N  ]| "And what are we to$9$ do for$4$ a proper partner for$4$ her?" 
302:325,15['  ]| said $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
302:325,15[N  ]| "She will$1$ think $EM#E$Frank ought to$9$ ask her." 
302:325,16['  ]| $EM#E$Frank turned instantly to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, to$9$ claim$1$ her former 
302:325,17['  ]| promise$0$; and boasted$1$ himself an engaged man, which$6#1$ his 
302:325,18['  ]| father looked his most perfect$2$ approbation of ~~ and it then 
302:325,19['  ]| appeared that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was wanting \him\ to$9$ dance$1$ with 
302:325,20['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton himself, and that$3$ their business was to$9$ help$1$ 
302:325,21['  ]| to$9$ persuade him into it, which$6#1$ was done pretty$5$ soon. ~~ 
302:325,22['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton led the way, $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
302:325,23['  ]| and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse followed. $EM#A$Emma must submit 
302:325,24['  ]| to$9$ stand$1$ second$2$ to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, though she had always 
302:325,25['  ]| considered the ball$0#2$ as peculiarly for$4$ her. It was almost 
302:325,26['  ]| enough to$9$ make$1$ her think of marrying. 
302:325,27['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton had undoubtedly the advantage, at this 
302:325,28['  ]| time, in$4$ vanity completely gratified; for$3$ though she had 
302:325,29['  ]| intended to$9$ begin with $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, she could not lose 
302:325,30['  ]| by$4$ the change$0$. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston might be his son's superior. ~~ 
302:325,31['  ]| In$4$ spite$8$ of this little rub, however, $EM#A$Emma was smiling with 
302:325,32['  ]| enjoyment, delighted to$9$ see the respectable length of the 
302:325,33['  ]| set$0$ as it was forming, and to$9$ feel that$3$ she had so$5#1$ many 
302:325,34['  ]| hours of unusual festivity before$4$ her. ~~ She was more 
302:325,35['  ]| disturbed by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's not dancing, than by$4$ any*thing 
302:325,36['  ]| else. ~~ 
302:325,36@a   | There he was, among the standers-by, where 
302:325,37@a   | he ought not to$9$ be; he ought to$9$ be dancing, ~~ not classing 
302:325,38@a   | himself with the husbands, and fathers, and whist-players, 
302:326,01@a   | who$6#1$ were pretending to$9$ feel an interest$0$ in$4$ the dance$0$ till 
302:326,02@a   | their rubbers were made up$5$, ~~ so$5#1$ young as he looked! ~~ 
302:326,03@a   | He could not have appeared to$4$ greater advantage perhaps 
302:326,04@a   | any*where, than where he had placed himself. His tall, 
302:326,05@a   | firm, upright figure, among the bulky forms and stooping 
302:326,06@a   | shoulders of the elderly men, was such as $EM#A$Emma felt must 
302:326,07@a   | draw every*body's eyes; and, excepting her own$2$ partner, 
302:326,08@a   | there was not one among the whole$2$ row of young men who$6#1$ 
302:326,09@a   | could be compared with him. ~~ He moved a few steps 
302:326,10@a   | nearer, and those few steps were enough to$9$ prove in$4$ how 
302:326,11@a   | gentlemanlike a manner, with what natural$2$ grace$0$, he must 
302:326,12@a   | have danced, would he but take the trouble$0$. ~~ 
302:326,12['  ]| Whenever 
302:326,13['  ]| she caught his eye, she forced him to$9$ smile$1$; but in$4$ general$0$ 
302:326,14['  ]| he was looking grave$2$. She wished he could love$1$ a ball-room 
302:326,15['  ]| better, and could like$1$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill better. ~~ 
302:326,15@a   | He 
302:326,16@a   | seemed often observing her. She must not flatter herself 
302:326,17@a   | that$3$ he thought$1$ of her dancing, but if he were criticising 
302:326,18@a   | her behaviour, she did not feel afraid. There was nothing 
302:326,19@a   | like$4$ flirtation between her and her partner. They seemed 
302:326,20@a   | more like$4$ cheerful, easy friends, than lovers. That$3$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
302:326,21@a   | thought$1$ less of her than he had done was 
302:326,22@a   | indubitable. 
302:326,23['  ]| The ball$0#2$ proceeded pleasantly. The anxious cares$0$, the 
302:326,24['  ]| incessant attentions of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, were not thrown 
302:326,25['  ]| away. Every*body seemed happy; and the praise$0$ of 
302:326,26['  ]| being$1$ a delightful ball$0#2$, which$6#1$ is seldom bestowed till after$3$ 
302:326,27['  ]| a ball$0#2$ has ceased to$9$ be, was repeatedly given in$4$ the very 
302:326,28['  ]| beginning of the existence of this. Of very important, 
302:326,29['  ]| very recordable events, it was not more productive than 
302:326,30['  ]| such meetings usually are. There was one, however, which$6#1$ 
302:326,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ something of. ~~ 
302:326,31@a   | The two last$2$ dances$0$ before$4$ 
302:326,32@a   | supper were begun, and $EM#M$Harriet had no$2$ partner; ~~ the only 
302:326,33@a   | young lady sitting down$5$; ~~ and so$5#1$ equal$2$ had been hitherto 
302:326,34@a   | the number of dancers, that$3$ how there could be any*one 
302:326,35@a   | disengaged was the wonder$0$! ~~ 
302:326,35['  ]| But $EM#A$Emma's wonder$0$ 
302:326,36['  ]| lessened soon afterwards, on$4$ seeing $EM#H$Mr%*Elton sauntering 
302:326,37['  ]| about$5$. 
302:326,37@a   | He would not ask $EM#M$Harriet to$9$ dance$1$ if it were 
302:326,38@a   | possible to$9$ be avoided: she was sure he would not ~~ and 
302:327,01@a   | she was expecting him every moment to$9$ escape$1$ into the 
302:327,02@a   | card-room. 
302:327,03['  ]| Escape$0$, however, was not his plan. He came to$4$ the part$0$ 
302:327,04['  ]| of the room where the sitters-by were collected, spoke to$4$ 
302:327,05['  ]| some, and walked about$5$ in$4$ front$0$ of them, as if to$9$ show$1$ 
302:327,06['  ]| his liberty, and his resolution of maintaining it. He did 
302:327,07['  ]| not omit being$1$ sometimes directly before$4$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith, or 
302:327,08['  ]| speaking to$4$ those who$6#1$ were close$5$ to$4$ her. ~~ $EM#A$Emma saw it. 
302:327,09['  ]| She was not yet dancing; she was working her way up$5$ 
302:327,10['  ]| from the bottom, and had therefore leisure to$9$ look$1$ around$5$, 
302:327,11['  ]| and by$4$ only turning her head$0$ a little she saw it all. When 
302:327,12['  ]| she was half way up$4$ the set$0$, the whole$2$ group were exactly 
302:327,13['  ]| behind her, and she would no$2$ longer allow her eyes to$9$ 
302:327,14['  ]| watch$1$; but $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was so$5#1$ near$5$, that$3$ she heard every 
302:327,15['  ]| syllable of a dialogue which$6#1$ just$5$ then took place$0$ between 
302:327,16['  ]| him and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; and she perceived that$3$ his wife, 
302:327,17['  ]| who$6#1$ was standing immediately above$4$ her, was not only 
302:327,18['  ]| listening also, but even$5$ encouraging him by$4$ significant 
302:327,19['  ]| glances. ~~ The kind-hearted, gentle $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had left 
302:327,20['  ]| her seat to$9$ join him and say, 
302:327,20[O  ]| "Do not you dance$1$, $EM#H$Mr%*Elton?" 
302:327,21['  ]| to$4$ which$6#1$ his prompt$2$ reply$0$ was, 
302:327,21[H  ]| "Most readily, 
302:327,22[H  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, if you will$1$ dance$1$ with me." 
302:327,23[O  ]| "Me! ~~ oh! no$7$ ~~ I would get you a better partner than 
302:327,24[O  ]| myself. I am no$2$ dancer." 
302:327,25[H  ]| "If $EM#ZG$Mrs%*Gilbert wishes$1$ to$9$ dance$1$," 
302:327,25['  ]| said he, 
302:327,25[H  ]| "I shall 
302:327,26[H  ]| have great pleasure, I am sure ~~ for$3$, though beginning to$9$ 
302:327,27[H  ]| feel myself rather an old married man, and that$3$ my 
302:327,28[H  ]| dancing days are over, it would give me very great pleasure at 
302:327,29[H  ]| any time to$9$ stand$1$ up$5$ with an old friend like$4$ $EM#ZG$Mrs%*Gilbert." 
302:327,30[O  ]| "$EM#ZG$Mrs%*Gilbert does not mean$1$ to$9$ dance$1$, but there is 
302:327,31[O  ]| a young lady disengaged whom$6#1$ I should be very glad to$9$ 
302:327,32[O  ]| see dancing ~~ $EM#M$Miss*Smith." 
302:327,32[H  ]| "$EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ oh! ~~ I had 
302:327,33[H  ]| not observed. ~~ You are extremely obliging ~~ and if I were 
302:327,34[H  ]| not an old married man. ~~ But my dancing days are over, 
302:327,35[H  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. You will$1$ excuse$1$ me. Any*thing else I should 
302:327,36[H  ]| be most happy to$9$ do, at your command$0$ ~~ but my dancing 
302:327,37[H  ]| days are over." 
302:327,38['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston said no$2$ more; and $EM#A$Emma could imagine 
302:328,01['  ]| with what surprise$0$ and mortification she must be returning 
302:328,02['  ]| to$4$ her seat. 
302:328,02@a   | This was $EM#H$Mr%*Elton! the amiable, obliging, 
302:328,03@a   | gentle $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. ~~ 
302:328,03['  ]| She looked round$5$ for$4$ a moment; 
302:328,03@a   | he 
302:328,04@a   | had joined $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley at a little distance$0$, and was 
302:328,05@a   | arranging himself for$4$ settled conversation, while$3$ smiles of 
302:328,06@a   | high glee passed between him and his wife. 
302:328,07@a   | She would not look$1$ again. Her heart was in$4$ a glow, and 
302:328,08@a   | she feared her face$0$ might be as hot. 
302:328,09@a   | In$4$ another moment a happier sight caught her; ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
302:328,10@a   | leading $EM#M$Harriet to$4$ the set$0$! ~~ Never had she been 
302:328,11@a   | more surprised, seldom more delighted, than at that$6#2$ 
302:328,12@a   | instant$0$. She was all pleasure and gratitude, both for$4$ 
302:328,13@a   | $EM#M$Harriet and herself, and longed to$9$ be thanking him; and 
302:328,14@a   | though too$5#1$ distant for$4$ speech, her countenance said much, 
302:328,15@a   | as soon as she could catch$1$ his eye again. 
302:328,16@a   | His dancing proved to$9$ be just$5$ what she had believed it, 
302:328,17@a   | extremely good; and $EM#M$Harriet would have seemed almost 
302:328,18@a   | too$5#1$ lucky, if it had not been for$4$ the cruel state$0$ of things 
302:328,19@a   | before$5$, and for$4$ the very complete$2$ enjoyment and very high 
302:328,20@a   | sense of the distinction which$6#1$ her happy features announced. 
302:328,21@a   | It was not thrown away on$4$ her, she bounded 
302:328,22@a   | higher than ever, flew farther down$4$ the middle, and was 
302:328,23@a   | in$4$ a continual course$0$ of smiles. 
302:328,24@a   | $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had retreated into the cardroom, looking 
302:328,25['  ]| ($EM#A$Emma trusted) 
302:328,25@a   | very foolish. She did not think he was 
302:328,26@a   | quite so$5#1$ hardened as his wife, though growing very like$4$ 
302:328,27@a   | her; ~~ 
302:328,27['  ]| \she\ spoke some of her feelings, by$4$ observing audibly 
302:328,28['  ]| to$4$ her partner, 
302:328,29[I  ]| "$EM#B$Knightley has taken pity$0$ on$4$ poor little $EM#M$Miss*Smith! ~~ 
302:328,30[I  ]| Very goodnatured, I declare." 
302:328,31['  ]| Supper was announced. The move$0$ began; and $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
302:328,32['  ]| might be heard from that$6#2$ moment, without interruption, 
302:328,33['  ]| till her being$1$ seated at table and taking up$5$ her 
302:328,34['  ]| spoon. 
302:328,35[D  ]| "$EM#J$Jane, $EM#J$Jane, my dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, where are you? ~~ Here is 
302:328,36[D  ]| your tippet. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston begs you to$9$ put on$5$ your 
302:328,37[D  ]| tippet. She says she is afraid there will$1$ be draughts 
302:328,38[D  ]| in$4$ the passage, though every*thing has been done ~~ one 
302:329,01[D  ]| door nailed up$5$ ~~ Quantities of matting ~~ My dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, 
302:329,02[D  ]| indeed you must. $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill, oh! you are too$5#1$ obliging! 
302:329,03[D  ]| How well$5$ you put it on$5$! ~~ so$5#1$ gratified! Excellent dancing 
302:329,04[D  ]| indeed! ~~ Yes, my dear$2#1$, I ran home, as I said I should, to$9$ 
302:329,05[D  ]| help$1$ grandmamma to$4$ bed, and got back$5$ again, and nobody 
302:329,06[D  ]| missed me. ~~ I set$1$ off without saying a word, just$5$ as I told 
302:329,07[D  ]| you. Grandmamma was quite well$5$, had a charming 
302:329,08[D  ]| evening with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, a vast deal$0$ of chat$0$, and 
302:329,09[D  ]| backgammon. ~~ Tea was made down*stairs, biscuits and 
302:329,10[D  ]| baked apples and wine before$3$ she came away: amazing 
302:329,11[D  ]| luck in$4$ some of her throws: and she inquired a great deal$0$ 
302:329,12[D  ]| about$4$ you, how you were amused, and who$6#2$ were your 
302:329,13[D  ]| partners. ""Oh!"" said I, ""I shall not forestall $EM#J$Jane; 
302:329,14[D  ]| I left her dancing with $EM#ZK2$Mr%*George*Otway; she will$1$ love$0$ 
302:329,15[D  ]| to$9$ tell you all about$4$ it herself to-morrow: her first 
302:329,16[D  ]| partner was $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, I do not know who$6#1$ will$1$ ask her 
302:329,17[D  ]| next, perhaps $EM#ZE1$Mr%*William*Cox."" My dear$2#1$ sir, you are 
302:329,18[D  ]| too$5#1$ obliging. ~~ Is there nobody you would not rather? ~~ 
302:329,19[D  ]| I am not helpless. Sir, you are most kind$2$. Upon$4$ my 
302:329,20[D  ]| word, $EM#J$Jane on$4$ one arm$0$, and me on$4$ the other! ~~ Stop$1$, stop$1$, 
302:329,21[D  ]| let us stand$1$ a little back$5$, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton is going; dear$2#1$ 
302:329,22[D  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, how elegant she looks$1$! ~~ Beautiful lace$0$! ~~ Now 
302:329,23[D  ]| we all follow in$4$ her train. Quite the queen of the evening! 
302:329,24[D  ]| ~~ Well$7$, here we are at the passage. Two steps, $EM#J$Jane, take 
302:329,25[D  ]| care$0$ of the two steps. Oh! no$7$, there is but one. Well$7$, 
302:329,26[D  ]| I was persuaded there were two. How very odd! I 
302:329,27[D  ]| was convinced there were two, and there is but one. 
302:329,28[D  ]| I never saw any*thing equal$2$ to$4$ the comfort$0$ and style ~~ 
302:329,29[D  ]| Candles every*where. ~~ I was telling you of your grandmamma, 
302:329,30[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane, ~~ There was a little disappointment. ~~ The 
302:329,31[D  ]| baked apples and biscuits, excellent in$4$ their way, you 
302:329,32[D  ]| know; but there was a delicate fricassee of sweetbread 
302:329,33[D  ]| and some asparagus brought in$5$ at first, and good $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, 
302:329,34[D  ]| not thinking the asparagus quite boiled enough, 
302:329,35[D  ]| sent it all out$5$ again. Now there is nothing grandmamma 
302:329,36[D  ]| loves better than sweetbread and asparagus ~~ so$3$ she was 
302:329,37[D  ]| rather disappointed, but we agreed we would not speak 
302:329,38[D  ]| of it to$4$ any*body, for$4$ fear$0$ of its getting round$5$ to$4$ dear$2#1$ 
302:330,01[D  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ would be so$5#1$ very much concerned! ~~ 
302:330,02[D  ]| Well$7$, this is brilliant! I am all amazement! could not 
302:330,03[D  ]| have supposed any*thing! ~~ Such elegance and profusion! 
302:330,04[D  ]| ~~ I have seen nothing like$4$ it since ~~ Well$7$, where shall we 
302:330,05[D  ]| sit? where shall we sit? Any*where, so$3$ that$3$ $EM#J$Jane is not 
302:330,06[D  ]| in$4$ a draught. Where \I\ sit is of no$2$ consequence. Oh! do 
302:330,07[D  ]| you recommend this side$0$? ~~ Well$7$, I am sure, $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill 
302:330,08[D  ]| ~~ only it seems too$5#1$ good ~~ but just$5$ as you please. What 
302:330,09[D  ]| you direct$1$ in$4$ this house cannot be wrong. Dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane, how 
302:330,10[D  ]| shall we ever recollect half the dishes for$4$ grandmamma? 
302:330,11[D  ]| Soup too$5#2$! Bless me! I should not be helped so$5#1$ soon, but 
302:330,12[D  ]| it smells most excellent, and I cannot help$1$ beginning." 
302:330,13['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had no$2$ opportunity of speaking to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
302:330,14['  ]| till after$4$ supper; but, when they were all in$4$ the ball-room 
302:330,15['  ]| again, her eyes invited him irresistibly to$9$ come to$4$ her and 
302:330,16['  ]| be thanked. He was warm$2$ in$4$ his reprobation of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
302:330,17['  ]| conduct$0$; 
302:330,17@b   | it had been unpardonable rudeness; 
302:330,18['  ]| and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's looks$0$ also received the due$2$ share$0$ of 
302:330,19['  ]| censure$0$. 
302:330,20[B  ]| "They aimed at wounding more than $EM#M$Harriet," 
302:330,20['  ]| said he. 
302:330,21[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma, why is it that$3$ they are your enemies?" 
302:330,22['  ]| He looked with smiling penetration; and, on$4$ receiving 
302:330,23['  ]| no$2$ answer$0$, added, 
302:330,23[B  ]| "\She\ ought not to$9$ be angry with you, 
302:330,24[B  ]| I suspect, whatever he may$1$ be. ~~ To$4$ that$6#2$ surmise$0$, you say 
302:330,25[B  ]| nothing, of course$8$; but confess, $EM#A$Emma, that$3$ you did 
302:330,26[B  ]| want$1$ him to$9$ marry $EM#M$Harriet." 
302:330,27[A  ]| "I did," 
302:330,27['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma, 
302:330,27[A  ]| "and they cannot forgive me." 
302:330,28['  ]| He shook his head$0$; but there was a smile$0$ of indulgence 
302:330,29['  ]| with it, and he only said, 
302:330,30[B  ]| "I shall not scold you. I leave$1$ you to$4$ your own$2$ 
302:330,31[B  ]| reflections." 
302:330,32[A  ]| "Can you trust$1$ me with such flatterers? ~~ Does my 
302:330,33[A  ]| vain spirit ever tell me I am wrong?" 
302:330,34[B  ]| "Not your vain spirit, but your serious$2$ spirit. ~~ If one 
302:330,35[B  ]| leads you wrong, I am sure the other tells you of it." 
302:330,36[A  ]| "I do own$1$ myself to$9$ have been completely mistaken 
302:330,37[A  ]| in$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. There is a littleness about$4$ him which$6#1$ you 
302:330,38[A  ]| discovered, and which$6#1$ I did not: and I was fully convinced 
302:331,01[A  ]| of his being$1$ in$4$ love$0$ with $EM#M$Harriet. It was through$4$ 
302:331,02[A  ]| a series of strange blunders!" 
302:331,03[B  ]| "And, in$4$ return$0$ for$4$ your acknowledging so$5#1$ much, 
302:331,04[B  ]| I will$1$ do you the justice to$9$ say, that$3$ you would have 
302:331,05[B  ]| chosen for$4$ him better than he has chosen for$4$ himself. ~~ 
302:331,06[B  ]| $EM#M$Harriet*Smith has some first-rate qualities, which$6#1$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
302:331,07[B  ]| is totally without. An unpretending, single-minded, 
302:331,08[B  ]| artless girl ~~ infinitely to$9$ be preferred by$4$ any man of sense 
302:331,09[B  ]| and taste to$4$ such a woman as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. I found $EM#M$Harriet 
302:331,10[B  ]| more conversable than I expected." 
302:331,11['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was extremely gratified. ~~ They were interrupted 
302:331,12['  ]| by$4$ the bustle$0$ of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston calling on$4$ every*body to$9$ begin 
302:331,13['  ]| dancing again. 
302:331,14[N  ]| "Come $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, $EM#ZK4$Miss*Otway, $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
302:331,15[N  ]| what are you all doing? ~~ Come $EM#A$Emma, set$1$ your companions 
302:331,16[N  ]| the example. Every*body is lazy! Every*body 
302:331,17[N  ]| is asleep!" 
302:331,18[A  ]| "I am ready," 
302:331,18['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
302:331,18[A  ]| "whenever I am wanted." 
302:331,19[B  ]| "Whom$6#2$ are you going to$9$ dance$1$ with?" 
302:331,19['  ]| asked $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
302:331,20['  ]| 
302:331,21['  ]| She hesitated a moment, and then replied, 
302:331,21[A  ]| "With you, 
302:331,22[A  ]| if you will$1$ ask me." 
302:331,23[B  ]| "Will$1$ you?" 
302:331,23['  ]| said he, offering his hand$0$. 
302:331,24[A  ]| "Indeed I will$1$. You have shown that$3$ you can dance$1$, 
302:331,25[A  ]| and you know we are not really so$5#1$ much brother and sister 
302:331,26[A  ]| as to$9$ make$1$ it at all improper." 
302:331,27[B  ]| "Brother and sister! no$7$, indeed." 
303:332,01['  ]| This little explanation with $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley gave $EM#A$Emma 
303:332,02['  ]| considerable pleasure. It was one of the agreeable recollections 
303:332,03['  ]| of the ball$0#2$, which$6#1$ she walked about$4$ the lawn the 
303:332,04['  ]| next morning to$9$ enjoy. ~~ 
303:332,04@a   | She was extremely glad that$3$ they 
303:332,05@a   | had come to$4$ so$5#1$ good an understanding respecting the 
303:332,06@a   | $EM#H1$Eltons, and that$3$ their opinions of both husband and wife 
303:332,07@a   | were so$5#1$ much alike; and his praise$0$ of $EM#M$Harriet, his concession 
303:332,08@a   | in$4$ her favour$0$, was peculiarly gratifying. The 
303:332,09@a   | impertinence of the $EM#H1$Eltons, which$6#1$ for$4$ a few minutes had 
303:332,10@a   | threatened to$9$ ruin$1$ the rest$0#1$ of her evening, had been the 
303:332,11@a   | occasion$0$ of some of its highest satisfactions; and she 
303:332,12@a   | looked forward$5$ to$4$ another happy result$0$ ~~ the cure$0$ of 
303:332,13@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's infatuation. ~~ 
303:332,13['  ]| From $EM#M$Harriet's manner of speaking 
303:332,14['  ]| of the circumstance before$3$ they quitted the ball-room, she 
303:332,15['  ]| had strong hopes$0$. It seemed as if her eyes were suddenly 
303:332,16['  ]| opened, and she were enabled to$9$ see that$3$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was 
303:332,17['  ]| not the superior creature she had believed him. The fever 
303:332,18['  ]| was over, and $EM#A$Emma could harbour$1$ little fear$0$ of the pulse 
303:332,19['  ]| being$1$ quickened again by$4$ injurious courtesy. She depended 
303:332,20['  ]| on$4$ the evil feelings of the $EM#H1$Eltons for$4$ supplying all the 
303:332,21['  ]| discipline of pointed neglect$0$ that$6#1$ could be further requisite. 
303:332,22@a   | ~~ $EM#M$Harriet rational, $EM#E$Frank*Churchill not too$5#1$ much in$4$ love$0$, 
303:332,23@a   | and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley not wanting to$9$ quarrel$1$ with her, how 
303:332,24@a   | very happy a summer must be before$4$ her! 
303:332,25['  ]| She was not to$9$ see $EM#E$Frank*Churchill this morning. He 
303:332,26['  ]| had told her that$3$ he could not allow himself the pleasure 
303:332,27['  ]| of stopping at Hartfield, as he was to$9$ be at home by$4$ the 
303:332,28['  ]| middle of the day. She did not regret$1$ it. 
303:332,29['  ]| Having arranged all these matters, looked them through$5$, 
303:332,30['  ]| and put them all to$4$ rights, she was just$5$ turning to$4$ the 
303:332,31['  ]| house with spirits freshened up$5$ for$4$ the demands$0$ of the 
303:332,32['  ]| two little boys, as well$5$ as of their grandpapa, when the 
303:332,33['  ]| great iron sweepgate opened, and two persons entered 
303:333,01['  ]| whom$6#1$ she had never less expected to$9$ see together ~~ 
303:333,01@a   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
303:333,02@a   | with $EM#M$Harriet leaning on$4$ his arm$0$ ~~ actually 
303:333,03@a   | $EM#M$Harriet! ~~ 
303:333,03['  ]| A moment sufficed to$9$ convince her that$3$ something 
303:333,04['  ]| extraordinary had happened. $EM#M$Harriet looked white 
303:333,05['  ]| and frightened, and he was trying to$9$ cheer her. ~~ The iron 
303:333,06['  ]| gates and the front$2$ door were not twenty yards asunder; ~~ 
303:333,07['  ]| they were all three soon in$4$ the hall, and $EM#M$Harriet immediately 
303:333,08['  ]| sinking into a chair fainted away. 
303:333,09['  ]| A young lady who$6#1$ faints, must be recovered; questions 
303:333,10['  ]| must be answered, and surprises be explained. Such 
303:333,11['  ]| events are very interesting, but the suspense of them 
303:333,12['  ]| cannot last$1$ long. A few minutes made $EM#A$Emma acquainted 
303:333,13['  ]| with the whole$0$. 
303:333,14['  ]| $EM#M$Miss*Smith, and $EM#ZZB$Miss*Bickerton, another parlour boarder 
303:333,15['  ]| at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, who$6#1$ had been also at the ball$0#2$, had walked 
303:333,16['  ]| out$5$ together, and taken a road, the Richmond road, which$6#1$, 
303:333,17['  ]| though apparently public$2$ enough for$4$ safety, had led them 
303:333,18['  ]| into alarm$0$. ~~ About$4$ half a mile beyond$4$ Highbury, making 
303:333,19['  ]| a sudden$2$ turn$0$, and deeply shaded by$4$ elms on$4$ each side$0$, it 
303:333,20['  ]| became for$4$ a considerable stretch very retired; and when 
303:333,21['  ]| the young ladies had advanced some way into it, they had 
303:333,22['  ]| suddenly perceived at a small distance$0$ before$4$ them, on$4$ 
303:333,23['  ]| a broader path of greensward by$4$ the side$0$, a party of 
303:333,24['  ]| gipsies. A child on$4$ the watch$0$, came towards them to$9$ beg; 
303:333,25['  ]| and $EM#ZZB$Miss*Bickerton, excessively frightened, gave a great 
303:333,26['  ]| scream, and calling on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet to$9$ follow her, ran up$4$ a steep 
303:333,27['  ]| bank, cleared a slight$2$ hedge at the top, and made the best 
303:333,28['  ]| of her way by$4$ a short cut$0$ back$5$ to$4$ Highbury. But poor 
303:333,29['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet could not follow. She had suffered very much 
303:333,30['  ]| from cramp after$4$ dancing, and her first attempt$0$ to$9$ mount 
303:333,31['  ]| the bank brought on$5$ such a return$0$ of it as made her 
303:333,32['  ]| absolutely powerless ~~ and in$4$ this state$0$, and exceedingly 
303:333,33['  ]| terrified, she had been obliged to$9$ remain. 
303:333,34['  ]| How the trampers might have behaved, had the young 
303:333,35['  ]| ladies been more courageous, must be doubtful; but such 
303:333,36['  ]| an invitation for$4$ attack$0$ could not be resisted; and $EM#M$Harriet 
303:333,37['  ]| was soon assailed by$4$ half a dozen children, headed by$4$ 
303:333,38['  ]| a stout woman and a great boy, all clamorous, and 
303:334,01['  ]| impertinent in$4$ look$0$, though not absolutely in$4$ word. ~~ More 
303:334,02['  ]| and more frightened, she immediately promised them 
303:334,03['  ]| money, and taking out$5$ her purse, gave them a shilling, and 
303:334,04['  ]| begged them not to$9$ want$1$ more, or to$9$ use$1$ her ill. ~~ She was 
303:334,05['  ]| then able to$9$ walk$1$, though but slowly, and was moving 
303:334,06['  ]| away ~~ but her terror and her purse were too$5#1$ tempting, 
303:334,07['  ]| and she was followed, or rather surrounded, by$4$ the whole$2$ 
303:334,08['  ]| gang, demanding more. 
303:334,09['  ]| In$4$ this state$0$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had found her, she 
303:334,10['  ]| trembling and conditioning, they loud and insolent. By$4$ 
303:334,11['  ]| a most fortunate chance$0$ his leaving Highbury had been 
303:334,12['  ]| delayed so$3$ as to$9$ bring him to$4$ her assistance at this critical 
303:334,13['  ]| moment. The pleasantness of the morning had induced 
303:334,14['  ]| him to$9$ walk$1$ forward$5$, and leave$1$ his horses to$9$ meet$1$ him by$4$ 
303:334,15['  ]| another road, a mile or two beyond$4$ Highbury ~~ and 
303:334,16['  ]| happening to$9$ have borrowed a pair$0$ of scissars the night 
303:334,17['  ]| before$5$ of $EM#D$Miss*Bates, and to$9$ have forgotten to$9$ restore them, 
303:334,18['  ]| he had been obliged to$9$ stop$1$ at her door, and go in$5$ for$4$ a few 
303:334,19['  ]| minutes: he was therefore later than he had intended; 
303:334,20['  ]| and being$1$ on$4$ foot, was unseen by$4$ the whole$2$ party till 
303:334,21['  ]| almost close$5$ to$4$ them.  The terror which$6#1$ the woman and 
303:334,22['  ]| boy had been creating in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet was then their own$2$ 
303:334,23['  ]| portion. He had left them completely frightened; and 
303:334,24['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet eagerly clinging to$4$ him, and hardly able to$9$ speak, 
303:334,25['  ]| had just$5$ strength enough to$9$ reach$1$ Hartfield, before$3$ her 
303:334,26['  ]| spirits were quite overcome. It was his idea to$9$ bring her 
303:334,27['  ]| to$4$ Hartfield: he had thought$1$ of no$2$ other place$0$. 
303:334,28['  ]| This was the amount of the whole$2$ story, ~~ of his communication 
303:334,29['  ]| and of $EM#M$Harriet's as soon as she had recovered 
303:334,30['  ]| her senses and speech. ~~ He dared not stay$1$ longer than 
303:334,31['  ]| to$9$ see her well$5$; these several delays left him not another 
303:334,32['  ]| minute$0$ to$9$ lose; and $EM#A$Emma engaging to$9$ give assurance 
303:334,33['  ]| of her safety to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard, and notice$0$ of there being$1$ 
303:334,34['  ]| such a set$0$ of people in$4$ the neighbourhood to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
303:334,35['  ]| he set$1$ off, with all the grateful blessings that$6#1$ she could 
303:334,36['  ]| utter$1$ for$4$ her friend and herself. 
303:334,37['  ]| Such an adventure as this, ~~ a fine young man and 
303:334,38['  ]| a lovely young woman thrown together in$4$ such a way, 
303:335,01['  ]| could hardly fail of suggesting certain ideas to$4$ the coldest 
303:335,02['  ]| heart and the steadiest brain. So$5#2$ $EM#A$Emma thought$1$, at least. 
303:335,03@a   | Could a linguist, could a grammarian, could even$5$ a mathematician 
303:335,04@a   | have seen what she did, have witnessed their 
303:335,05@a   | appearance together, and heard their history of it, without 
303:335,06@a   | feeling that$3$ circumstances had been at work$0$ to$9$ make$1$ them 
303:335,07@a   | peculiarly interesting to$4$ each other? ~~ How much more 
303:335,08@a   | must an imaginist, like$4$ herself, be on$4$ fire$0$ with speculation 
303:335,09@a   | and foresight! ~~ especially with such a ground-work of 
303:335,10@a   | anticipation as her mind$0$ had already made. 
303:335,11@a   | It was a very extraordinary thing! Nothing of the sort 
303:335,12@a   | had ever occurred before$5$ to$4$ any young ladies in$4$ the place$0$, 
303:335,13@a   | within her memory; no$2$ rencontre, no$2$ alarm$0$ of the kind$0$; ~~ 
303:335,14@a   | and now it had happened to$4$ the very person, and at the 
303:335,15@a   | very hour, when the other very person was chancing to$9$ pass$1$ 
303:335,16@a   | by$5$ to$9$ rescue$1$ her! ~~ It certainly was very extraordinary! 
303:335,17@a   | ~~ And knowing, as she did, the favourable state$0$ of mind$0$ of 
303:335,18@a   | each at this period, it struck her the more. He was wishing 
303:335,19@a   | to$9$ get the better of his attachment to$4$ herself, she just$5$ 
303:335,20@a   | recovering from her mania for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. It seemed as if 
303:335,21@a   | every*thing united to$9$ promise$1$ the most interesting consequences. 
303:335,22@a   | It was not possible that$3$ the occurrence should 
303:335,23@a   | not be strongly recommending each to$4$ the other. 
303:335,24@a   | In$4$ the few minutes' conversation which$6#1$ she had yet had 
303:335,25@a   | with him, while$3$ $EM#M$Harriet had been partially insensible, he 
303:335,26@a   | had spoken of her terror, her nai^vete=, her fervor as she 
303:335,27@a   | seized and clung to$4$ his arm$0$, with a sensibility amused and 
303:335,28@a   | delighted; and just$5$ at last$0$, after$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's own$2$ account$0$ 
303:335,29@a   | had been given, he had expressed his indignation at the 
303:335,30@a   | abominable folly of $EM#ZZB$Miss*Bickerton in$4$ the warmest terms. 
303:335,31@a   | Every*thing was to$9$ take its natural$2$ course$0$, however, 
303:335,32@a   | neither impelled nor assisted. She would not stir a step$0$, 
303:335,33@a   | nor drop$1$ a hint$0$. No$7$, she had had enough of interference. 
303:335,34@a   | There could be no$2$ harm$0$ in$4$ a scheme$0$, a mere passive 
303:335,35@a   | scheme$0$. It was no$2$ more than a wish$0$. Beyond$4$ it she 
303:335,36@a   | would on$4$ no$2$ account$0$ proceed. 
303:335,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's first resolution was to$9$ keep her father from the 
303:335,38['  ]| knowledge of what had passed, ~~ aware of the anxiety and 
303:336,01['  ]| alarm$0$ it would occasion$1$: but she soon felt that$3$ concealment 
303:336,02['  ]| must be impossible. Within half an hour it was 
303:336,03['  ]| known all over Highbury. It was the very event to$9$ engage 
303:336,04['  ]| those who$6#1$ talk$1$ most, the young and the low; and all the 
303:336,05['  ]| youth and servants in$4$ the place$0$ were soon in$4$ the happiness 
303:336,06['  ]| of frightful news. The last$2$ night's ball$0#2$ seemed lost in$4$ the 
303:336,07['  ]| gipsies. Poor $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse trembled as he sat, and, as 
303:336,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had foreseen, would scarcely be satisfied without 
303:336,09['  ]| their promising never to$9$ go beyond$4$ the shrubbery again. 
303:336,10['  ]| It was some comfort$0$ to$4$ him that$3$ many inquiries after$4$ 
303:336,11['  ]| himself and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse (for$3$ his neighbours knew 
303:336,12['  ]| that$3$ he loved to$9$ be inquired after$5$), as well$5$ as $EM#M$Miss*Smith, 
303:336,13['  ]| were coming in$5$ during the rest$0#1$ of the day; and he had the 
303:336,14['  ]| pleasure of returning for$4$ answer$0$, that$3$ they were all very 
303:336,15['  ]| indifferent ~~ which$6#1$, though not exactly true, for$3$ she was 
303:336,16['  ]| perfectly well$5$, and $EM#M$Harriet not much otherwise, $EM#A$Emma 
303:336,17['  ]| would not interfere with. She had an unhappy state$0$ of 
303:336,18['  ]| health in$4$ general$0$ for$4$ the child of such a man, for$3$ she hardly 
303:336,19['  ]| knew what indisposition was; and if he did not invent 
303:336,20['  ]| illnesses for$4$ her, she could make$1$ no$2$ figure in$4$ a message. 
303:336,21['  ]| The gipsies did not wait for$4$ the operations of justice; 
303:336,22['  ]| they took themselves off in$4$ a hurry$0$. The young ladies of 
303:336,23['  ]| Highbury might have walked again in$4$ safety before$3$ their 
303:336,24['  ]| panic began, and the whole$2$ history dwindled soon into 
303:336,25['  ]| a matter of little importance but to$4$ $EM#A$Emma and her 
303:336,26['  ]| nephews: ~~ in$4$ her imagination it maintained its ground, 
303:336,27['  ]| and $EM#L1$Henry and $EM#L2$John were still$5$ asking every day for$4$ the 
303:336,28['  ]| story of $EM#M$Harriet and the gipsies, and still$5$ tenaciously 
303:336,29['  ]| setting her right$2#1$ if she varied in$4$ the slightest particular 
303:336,30['  ]| from the original recital. 
304:337,01['  ]| A very few days had passed after$4$ this adventure, when 
304:337,02['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet came one morning to$4$ $EM#A$Emma with a small parcel 
304:337,03['  ]| in$4$ her hand$0$, and after$4$ sitting down$5$ and hesitating, thus 
304:337,04['  ]| began: 
304:337,05[M  ]| "$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse ~~ if you are at leisure ~~ I have something 
304:337,06[M  ]| that$6#1$ I should like$1$ to$9$ tell you ~~ a sort of confession 
304:337,07[M  ]| to$9$ make$1$ ~~ and then, you know, it will$1$ be over." 
304:337,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was a good deal$0$ surprised; but begged her to$9$ 
304:337,09['  ]| speak. There was a seriousness in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's manner which$6#1$ 
304:337,10['  ]| prepared her, quite as much as her words, for$4$ something 
304:337,11['  ]| more than ordinary. 
304:337,12[M  ]| "It is my duty, and I am sure it is my wish$0$," 
304:337,12['  ]| she continued, 
304:337,13[M  ]| "to$9$ have no$2$ reserves with you on$4$ this subject$0$. 
304:337,14[M  ]| As I am happily quite an altered creature in$4$ \one\ \respect$0$\, it 
304:337,15[M  ]| is very fit$2$ that$3$ you should have the satisfaction of knowing 
304:337,16[M  ]| it. I do not want$1$ to$9$ say more than is necessary ~~ I am too$5#1$ 
304:337,17[M  ]| much ashamed of having given way as I have done, and 
304:337,18[M  ]| I dare$1#2$ say you understand me." 
304:337,19[A  ]| "Yes," 
304:337,19['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
304:337,19[A  ]| "I hope$1$ I do." 
304:337,20[M  ]| "How I could so$5#1$ long a time be fancying myself! ~~" 
304:337,21['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet, warmly. 
304:337,21[M  ]| "It seems like$4$ madness! I can see 
304:337,22[M  ]| nothing at all extraordinary in$4$ him now. ~~  I do not care$1$ 
304:337,23[M  ]| whether I meet$1$ him or not ~~ except that$3$ of the two I had 
304:337,24[M  ]| rather not see him ~~ and indeed I would go any distance$0$ 
304:337,25[M  ]| round$5$ to$9$ avoid him ~~ but I do not envy$1$ his wife in$4$ the 
304:337,26[M  ]| least; I neither admire her nor envy$1$ her, as I have done: 
304:337,27[M  ]| she is very charming, I dare$1#2$ say, and all that$6#2$, but I think 
304:337,28[M  ]| her very ill-tempered and disagreeable ~~ I shall never 
304:337,29[M  ]| forget her look$0$ the other night! ~~ However, I assure you, 
304:337,30[M  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, I wish$1$ her no$2$ evil. ~~ No$7$, let them be 
304:337,31[M  ]| ever so$5#1$ happy together, it will$1$ not give me another 
304:337,32[M  ]| moment's pang: and to$9$ convince you that$3$ I have been 
304:337,33[M  ]| speaking truth, I am now going to$9$ destroy ~~ what I ought 
304:338,01[M  ]| to$9$ have destroyed long ago ~~ what I ought never to$9$ have 
304:338,02[M  ]| kept ~~ I know that$6#2$ very well$5$ 
304:338,02['  ]| (blushing as she spoke). ~~ 
304:338,03[M  ]| However, now I will$1$ destroy it all ~~ and it is my particular 
304:338,04[M  ]| wish$0$ to$9$ do it in$4$ your presence, that$3$ you may$1$ see how 
304:338,05[M  ]| rational I am grown. Cannot you guess$1$ what this parcel 
304:338,06[M  ]| holds?" 
304:338,06['  ]| said she, with a conscious look$0$. 
304:338,07[A  ]| "Not the least in$4$ the world. ~~ Did he ever give you any*thing?" 
304:338,08[A  ]| 
304:338,09[M  ]| "No$7$ ~~ I cannot call$1$ them gifts; but they are things 
304:338,10[M  ]| that$6#1$ I have valued very much." 
304:338,11['  ]| She held the parcel towards her, and $EM#A$Emma read the 
304:338,12['  ]| words \Most\ \precious\ \treasures\ on$4$ the top. Her curiosity 
304:338,13['  ]| was greatly excited. $EM#M$Harriet unfolded the parcel, and she 
304:338,14['  ]| looked on$5$ with impatience. Within abundance of silver 
304:338,15['  ]| paper was a pretty$2$ little Tunbridge-ware box, which$6#1$ 
304:338,16['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet opened: it was well$5$ lined with the softest cotton; 
304:338,17['  ]| but, excepting the cotton, $EM#A$Emma saw only a small piece of 
304:338,18['  ]| court*plaister. 
304:338,19[M  ]| "Now," 
304:338,19['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet, 
304:338,19[M  ]| "you \must\ recollect," 
304:338,20[A  ]| "No$7$, indeed I do not." 
304:338,21[M  ]| "Dear$7$ me! I should not have thought$1$ it possible you 
304:338,22[M  ]| could forget what passed in$4$ this very room about$4$ court*plaister, 
304:338,23[M  ]| one of the very last$2$ times we ever met in$4$ it! ~~ It 
304:338,24[M  ]| was but a very few days before$3$ I had my sore*throat ~~ 
304:338,25[M  ]| just$5$ before$3$ $EM#K$Mr% and $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley came ~~ I think 
304:338,26[M  ]| the very evening. ~~ Do not you remember his cutting his 
304:338,27[M  ]| finger with your new penknife, and your recommending 
304:338,28[M  ]| court*plaister? ~~ But as you had none about$4$ you, and 
304:338,29[M  ]| knew I had, you desired me to$9$ supply$1$ him; and so$3$ I took 
304:338,30[M  ]| mine$6$ out$5$ and cut$1$ him a piece; but it was a great deal$0$ too$5#1$ 
304:338,31[M  ]| large, and he cut$1$ it smaller, and kept playing some time 
304:338,32[M  ]| with what was left, before$3$ he gave it back$5$ to$4$ me. And so$3$ 
304:338,33[M  ]| then, in$4$ my nonsense, I could not help$1$ making a treasure 
304:338,34[M  ]| of it ~~ so$3$ I put it by$5$ never to$9$ be used, and looked at it now 
304:338,35[M  ]| and then as a great treat$0$." 
304:338,36[A  ]| "My dearest $EM#M$Harriet!" 
304:338,36['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, putting her hand$0$ 
304:338,37['  ]| before$4$ her face$0$, and jumping up$5$, 
304:338,37[A  ]| "you make$1$ me more 
304:338,38[A  ]| ashamed of myself than I can bear$1$. Remember it? Ay, 
304:339,01[A  ]| I remember it all now; all, except your saving this 
304:339,02[A  ]| relick ~~ I knew nothing of that$6#2$ till this moment ~~ but 
304:339,03[A  ]| the cutting the finger, and my recommending court*plaister, 
304:339,04[A  ]| and saying I had none about$4$ me! ~~ Oh! my sins, 
304:339,05[A  ]| my sins! ~~ And I had plenty all the while$0$ in$4$ my pocket! ~~ 
304:339,06[A  ]| One of my senseless tricks! ~~ I deserve to$9$ be under a continual 
304:339,07[A  ]| blush$0$ all the rest$0#1$ of my life. ~~ Well$7$ ~~ 
304:339,07['  ]| (sitting down$5$ 
304:339,08['  ]| again) 
304:339,08[A  ]| go on$5$ ~~ what else?" 
304:339,09[M  ]| "And had you really some at hand$0$ yourself? ~~ I am sure 
304:339,10[M  ]| I never suspected it, you did it so$5#1$ naturally." 
304:339,11[A  ]| "And so$3$ you actually put this piece of court*plaister 
304:339,12[A  ]| by$5$ for$4$ his sake!" 
304:339,12['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, recovering from her state$0$ 
304:339,13['  ]| of shame$0$ and feeling divided between wonder$0$ and amusement. 
304:339,14['  ]| And secretly she added to$4$ herself, 
304:339,14@a   | "Lord$7$ bless me! 
304:339,15@a   | when should I ever have thought$1$ of putting by$5$ in$4$ cotton 
304:339,16@a   | a piece of court*plaister that$6#1$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had been 
304:339,17@a   | pulling about$5$! ~~ I never was equal$2$ to$4$ this." 
304:339,18[M  ]| "Here," 
304:339,18['  ]| resumed $EM#M$Harriet, turning to$4$ her box again, 
304:339,19[M  ]| "here is something still$5$ more valuable, I mean$1$ that$6#1$ \has\ 
304:339,20[M  ]| \been\ more valuable, because this is what did really once 
304:339,21[M  ]| belong to$4$ him, which$6#1$ the court*plaister never did." 
304:339,22['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was quite eager to$9$ see this superior treasure. It 
304:339,23['  ]| was the end$0$ of an old pencil, ~~ the part$0$ without any lead$0#2$. 
304:339,24[M  ]| "This was really his," 
304:339,24['  ]| said $EM#M$Harriet. ~~ 
304:339,24[M  ]| "Do not you 
304:339,25[M  ]| remember one morning? ~~ no$7$, I dare$1#2$ say you do not. But 
304:339,26[M  ]| one morning ~~ I forget exactly the day ~~ but perhaps it 
304:339,27[M  ]| was the Tuesday or Wednesday before$4$ \that$6#2$\ \evening\, he 
304:339,28[M  ]| wanted to$9$ make$1$ a memorandum in$4$ his pocket-book; it 
304:339,29[M  ]| was about$4$ spruce*beer. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had been telling 
304:339,30[M  ]| him something about$4$ brewing spruce*beer, and he wanted 
304:339,31[M  ]| to$9$ put it down$5$; but when he took out$5$ his pencil, there was 
304:339,32[M  ]| so$5#1$ little lead$0#2$ that$6#1$ he soon cut$1$ it all away, and it would 
304:339,33[M  ]| not do, so$3$ you lent him another, and this was left upon$4$ the 
304:339,34[M  ]| table as good for$4$ nothing. But I kept my eye on$4$ it; and, 
304:339,35[M  ]| as soon as I dared, caught it up$5$, and never parted with it 
304:339,36[M  ]| again from that$6#2$ moment." 
304:339,37[A  ]| "I do remember it," 
304:339,37['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
304:339,37[A  ]| "I perfectly 
304:339,38[A  ]| remember it. ~~ Talking about$4$ spruce*beer. ~~ Oh! yes ~~ 
304:340,01[A  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and I both saying we liked it, and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
304:340,02[A  ]| seeming resolved to$9$ learn to$9$ like$1$ it too$5#2$. I perfectly 
304:340,03[A  ]| remember it. ~~ Stop$1$; $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was standing just$5$ 
304:340,04[A  ]| here, was not he? ~~ I have an idea he was standing just$5$ 
304:340,05[A  ]| here." 
304:340,06[M  ]| "Ah! I do not know. I cannot recollect. ~~ It is very 
304:340,07[M  ]| odd, but I cannot recollect. ~~ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was sitting here, 
304:340,08[M  ]| I remember, much about$4$ where I am now." ~~ 
304:340,09[A  ]| "Well$7$, go on$5$." 
304:340,10[M  ]| "Oh! that's all. I have nothing more to$9$ show$1$ you, 
304:340,11[M  ]| or to$9$ say ~~ except that$3$ I am now going to$9$ throw$1$ them 
304:340,12[M  ]| both behind the fire$0$, and I wish$1$ you to$9$ see me do it." 
304:340,13[A  ]| "My poor dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet! and have you actually found 
304:340,14[A  ]| happiness in$4$ treasuring up$5$ these things?" 
304:340,15[M  ]| "Yes, simpleton as I was! ~~ but I am quite ashamed 
304:340,16[M  ]| of it now, and wish$1$ I could forget as easily as I can burn 
304:340,17[M  ]| them. It was very wrong of me, you know, to$9$ keep any 
304:340,18[M  ]| remembrances, after$3$ he was married. I knew it was ~~ 
304:340,19[M  ]| but had not resolution enough to$9$ part$1$ with them." 
304:340,20[A  ]| "But, $EM#M$Harriet, is it necessary to$9$ burn the court*plaister? 
304:340,21[A  ]| ~~ I have not a word to$9$ say for$4$ the bit of old pencil, but the 
304:340,22[A  ]| court*plaister might be useful." 
304:340,23[M  ]| "I shall be happier to$9$ burn it," 
304:340,23['  ]| replied $EM#M$Harriet. 
304:340,23[M  ]| "It 
304:340,24[M  ]| has a disagreeable look$0$ to$4$ me. I must get rid of every*thing. ~~ 
304:340,25[M  ]| There it goes, and there is an end$0$, thank Heaven! 
304:340,26[M  ]| of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton." 
304:340,27@a   | "And when," 
304:340,27['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma, 
304:340,27@a   | "will$1$ there be a beginning 
304:340,28@a   | of $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill?" 
304:340,29['  ]| She had soon afterwards reason$0$ to$9$ believe that$3$ the 
304:340,30['  ]| beginning was already made, and could not but hope$1$ that$3$ 
304:340,31['  ]| the gipsy, though she had \told\ no$2$ fortune, might be proved 
304:340,32['  ]| to$9$ have made $EM#M$Harriet's. ~~ About$4$ a fortnight after$4$ the 
304:340,33['  ]| alarm$0$, they came to$4$ a sufficient explanation, and quite 
304:340,34['  ]| undesignedly. $EM#A$Emma was not thinking of it at the 
304:340,35['  ]| moment, which$6#1$ made the information she received more 
304:340,36['  ]| valuable. She merely said, in$4$ the course$0$ of some trivial 
304:340,37['  ]| chat$0$, 
304:340,37[A  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#M$Harriet, whenever you marry I would advise 
304:340,38[A  ]| you to$9$ do so$5#2$ and so$5#2$" ~~ 
304:340,38['  ]| and thought$1$ no$2$ more of it, till after$4$ 
304:341,01['  ]| a minute's silence$0$ she heard $EM#M$Harriet say in$4$ a very serious$2$ 
304:341,02['  ]| tone, 
304:341,02[M  ]| "I shall never marry." 
304:341,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma then looked up$5$, and immediately saw how it 
304:341,04['  ]| was; and after$4$ a moment's debate, as to$4$ whether it 
304:341,05['  ]| should pass$1$ unnoticed or not, replied, 
304:341,06[A  ]| "Never marry! ~~ This is a new resolution." 
304:341,07[M  ]| "It is one that$6#1$ I shall never change$1$, however." 
304:341,08['  ]| After$4$ another short hesitation, 
304:341,08[A  ]| "I hope$1$ it does not 
304:341,09[A  ]| proceed from ~~ I hope$1$ it is not in$4$ compliment$0$ to$4$ 
304:341,10[A  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton?" 
304:341,11[M  ]| "$EM#H$Mr%*Elton indeed!" 
304:341,11['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet indignantly. ~~ 
304:341,11[M  ]| "Oh! 
304:341,12[M  ]| no$7$" ~~ 
304:341,12['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma could just$5$ catch$1$ the words, 
304:341,12[M  ]| "so$5#1$ superior 
304:341,13[M  ]| to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton!" 
304:341,14['  ]| She then took a longer time for$4$ consideration. 
304:341,14@a   | Should 
304:341,15@a   | she proceed no$2$ farther? ~~ should she let it pass$1$, and seem 
304:341,16@a   | to$9$ suspect nothing? ~~ Perhaps $EM#M$Harriet might think her 
304:341,17@a   | cold$2$ or angry if she did; or perhaps if she were totally 
304:341,18@a   | silent, it might only drive$1$ $EM#M$Harriet into asking her to$9$ hear 
304:341,19@a   | too$5#1$ much; and against any*thing like$4$ such an unreserve 
304:341,20@a   | as had been, such an open$2$ and frequent discussion of hopes$0$ 
304:341,21@a   | and chances, she was perfectly resolved. ~~ She believed it 
304:341,22@a   | would be wiser for$4$ her to$9$ say and know at once, all that$6#1$ she 
304:341,23@a   | meant to$9$ say and know. Plain dealing was always best. 
304:341,24@a   | She had previously determined how far she would proceed, 
304:341,25@a   | on$4$ any application of the sort; and it would be safer for$4$ 
304:341,26@a   | both, to$9$ have the judicious law of her own$2$ brain laid down$5$ 
304:341,27@a   | with speed. ~~ 
304:341,27['  ]| She was decided, and thus spoke ~~ 
304:341,28[A  ]| "$EM#M$Harriet, I will$1$ not affect to$9$ be in$4$ doubt$0$ of your 
304:341,29[A  ]| meaning. Your resolution, or rather your expectation of 
304:341,30[A  ]| never marrying, results from an idea that$3$ the person 
304:341,31[A  ]| whom$6#1$ you might prefer, would be too$5#1$ greatly your 
304:341,32[A  ]| superior in$4$ situation to$9$ think of you. Is not it so$5#2$?" 
304:341,33[M  ]| "Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, believe me I have not the 
304:341,34[M  ]| presumption to$9$ suppose ~~ Indeed I am not so$5#1$ mad. ~~ But 
304:341,35[M  ]| it is a pleasure to$4$ me to$9$ admire him at a distance$0$ ~~ and to$9$ 
304:341,36[M  ]| think of his infinite superiority to$4$ all the rest$0#1$ of the world, 
304:341,37[M  ]| with the gratitude, wonder$0$, and veneration, which$6#1$ are so$5#1$ 
304:341,38[M  ]| proper, in$4$ me especially." 
304:342,01[A  ]| "I am not at all surprised at you, $EM#M$Harriet. The service 
304:342,02[A  ]| he rendered you was enough to$9$ warm$1$ your heart." 
304:342,03[M  ]| "Service! oh! it was such an inexpressible obligation! 
304:342,04[M  ]| ~~ the very recollection of it, and all that$6#1$ I felt at the time 
304:342,05[M  ]| ~~ when I saw him coming ~~ his noble look$0$ ~~ and my 
304:342,06[M  ]| wretchedness before$5$. Such a change$0$! In$4$ one moment 
304:342,07[M  ]| such a change$0$! From perfect$2$ misery to$4$ perfect$2$ happiness." 
304:342,08[A  ]| "It is very natural$2$. It is natural$2$, and it is honourable. 
304:342,09[A  ]| ~~ Yes, honourable, I think, to$9$ choose so$5#1$ well$5$ and so$5#1$ gratefully. ~~ 
304:342,10[A  ]| But that$3$ it will$1$ be a fortunate preference is more 
304:342,11[A  ]| than I can promise$1$. I do not advise you to$9$ give way to$4$ it, 
304:342,12[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet. I do not by$4$ any means$0$ engage for$4$ its being$1$ 
304:342,13[A  ]| returned. Consider what you are about$4$. Perhaps it will$1$ be 
304:342,14[A  ]| wisest in$4$ you to$9$ check$1$ your feelings while$3$ you can: at 
304:342,15[A  ]| any rate$0$ do not let them carry you far, unless you are 
304:342,16[A  ]| persuaded of his liking you. Be observant of him. Let 
304:342,17[A  ]| his behaviour be the guide$0$ of your sensations. I give you 
304:342,18[A  ]| this caution$0$ now, because I shall never speak to$4$ you again 
304:342,19[A  ]| on$4$ the subject$0$. I am determined against all interference. 
304:342,20[A  ]| Henceforward I know nothing of the matter. Let no$2$ name$0$ 
304:342,21[A  ]| ever pass$1$ our lips. We were very wrong before$5$; we will$1$ 
304:342,22[A  ]| be cautious now. ~~ He is your superior, no$2$ doubt$0$, and there 
304:342,23[A  ]| do seem objections and obstacles of a very serious$2$ nature; 
304:342,24[A  ]| but yet, $EM#M$Harriet, more wonderful things have taken place$0$, 
304:342,25[A  ]| there have been matches of greater disparity. But take 
304:342,26[A  ]| care$0$ of yourself. I would not have you too$5#1$ sanguine; 
304:342,27[A  ]| though, however it may$1$ end$1$, be assured that$3$ your raising 
304:342,28[A  ]| your thoughts to$4$ \him\, is a mark$0$ of good taste which$6#1$ I shall 
304:342,29[A  ]| always know how to$9$ value$1$." 
304:342,30['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet kissed her hand$0$ in$4$ silent and submissive gratitude. 
304:342,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was very decided in$4$ thinking such an 
304:342,32['  ]| attachment no$2$ bad thing for$4$ her friend. 
304:342,32@a   | It's tendency 
304:342,33@a   | would be to$9$ raise and refine her mind$0$ ~~ and it must be 
304:342,34@a   | saving her from the danger of degradation. 
305:343,01['  ]| In$4$ this state$0$ of schemes, and hopes$0$, and connivance, 
305:343,02['  ]| June opened upon$4$ Hartfield. To$4$ Highbury in$4$ general$0$ 
305:343,03['  ]| it brought no$2$ material$2$ change$0$. The $EM#H1$Eltons were still$5$ 
305:343,04['  ]| talking of a visit$0$ from the $EM#W2$Sucklings, and of the use$0$ to$9$ be 
305:343,05['  ]| made of their barouche-landau; and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax was 
305:343,06['  ]| still$5$ at her grandmother's; and as the return$0$ of the 
305:343,07['  ]| $EM#ZC2$Campbells from Ireland was again delayed, and August, 
305:343,08['  ]| instead of Midsummer, fixed for$4$ it, she was likely to$9$ 
305:343,09['  ]| remain there full two months longer, provided at least she 
305:343,10['  ]| were able to$9$ defeat $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's activity in$4$ her service, 
305:343,11['  ]| and save$1$ herself from being$1$ hurried into a delightful 
305:343,12['  ]| situation against her will$0$. 
305:343,13['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, who$6#1$, for$4$ some reason$0$ best known to$4$ 
305:343,14['  ]| himself, had certainly taken an early dislike$0$ to$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
305:343,15['  ]| was only growing to$9$ dislike$1$ him more. 
305:343,15@b   | He began 
305:343,16@b   | to$9$ suspect him of some double$2$ dealing in$4$ his pursuit of 
305:343,17@b   | $EM#A$Emma. That$3$ $EM#A$Emma was his object$0$ appeared indisputable. 
305:343,18@b   | Every*thing declared it; his own$2$ attentions, his father's 
305:343,19@b   | hints, his mother-in-law's guarded silence$0$; it was all in$4$ 
305:343,20@b   | unison; words, conduct$0$, discretion, and indiscretion, 
305:343,21@b   | told the same story. 
305:343,21['  ]| But while$3$ so$5#1$ many were devoting 
305:343,22['  ]| him to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, and $EM#A$Emma herself making him over to$4$ 
305:343,23['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley began to$9$ suspect him of some 
305:343,24['  ]| inclination to$9$ trifle$1$ with $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. 
305:343,24@b   | He could not 
305:343,25@b   | understand it; but there were symptoms of intelligence 
305:343,26@b   | between them ~~ he thought$1$ so$5#2$ at least ~~ symptoms of 
305:343,27@b   | admiration on$4$ his side$0$, which$6#1$, having once observed, he 
305:343,28@b   | could not persuade himself to$9$ think entirely void$2$ of 
305:343,29@b   | meaning, however he might wish$1$ to$9$ escape$1$ any of $EM#A$Emma's 
305:343,30@b   | errors of imagination. \She\ was not present$5$ when the 
305:343,31@b   | suspicion first arose. He was dining with the Randalls' 
305:343,32@b   | family, and $EM#J$Jane, at the $EM#H1$Eltons'; and he had seen a look$0$, 
305:344,01@b   | more than a single look$0$, at $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, which$6#1$, from the 
305:344,02@b   | admirer of $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, seemed somewhat out$5$ of 
305:344,03@b   | place$0$. When he was again in$4$ their company, he could not 
305:344,04@b   | help$1$ remembering what he had seen; nor could he avoid 
305:344,05@b   | observations which$6#1$, unless it were like$4$ $EM#Z1$Cowper and his 
305:344,06@b   | fire$0$ at twilight, 
305:344,07@z   | "Myself creating what I saw," 
305:344,08@b   | brought him yet stronger suspicion of there being$1$ a something 
305:344,09@b   | of private$2$ liking, of private$2$ understanding even$5$, 
305:344,10@b   | between $EM#E$Frank*Churchill and $EM#J$Jane. 
305:344,11['  ]| He had walked up$5$ one day after$4$ dinner, as he very often 
305:344,12['  ]| did, to$9$ spend his evening at Hartfield. $EM#A$Emma and $EM#M$Harriet 
305:344,13['  ]| were going to$9$ walk$1$; he joined them; and, on$4$ returning, 
305:344,14['  ]| they fell in$5$ with a larger party, who$6#1$, like$4$ themselves, 
305:344,15['  ]| judged it wisest to$9$ take their exercise$0$ early, as the weather 
305:344,16['  ]| threatened rain$0$; $EM#N$Mr% and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston and their son, $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
305:344,17['  ]| and her niece, who$6#1$ had accidentally met. They all 
305:344,18['  ]| united; and, on$4$ reaching Hartfield gates, $EM#A$Emma, who$6#1$ 
305:344,19['  ]| knew it was exactly the sort of visiting that$6#1$ would be 
305:344,20['  ]| welcome$2$ to$4$ her father, pressed them all to$9$ go in$5$ and drink 
305:344,21['  ]| tea with him. The Randalls' party agreed to$4$ it immediately; 
305:344,22['  ]| and after$4$ a pretty$5$ long speech from $EM#D$Miss*Bates, 
305:344,23['  ]| which$6#1$ few persons listened to$4$, she also found it possible 
305:344,24['  ]| to$9$ accept dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's most obliging invitation. 
305:344,25['  ]| As they were turning into the grounds, $EM#W$Mr%*Perry passed 
305:344,26['  ]| by$5$ on$4$ horseback. The gentlemen spoke of his horse. 
305:344,27[E  ]| "By*the*bye," 
305:344,27['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
305:344,28['  ]| presently, 
305:344,28[E  ]| "what became of $EM#W$Mr%*Perry's plan of setting up$5$ 
305:344,29[E  ]| his carriage?" 
305:344,30['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston looked surprised, and said, 
305:344,30[O  ]| "I did not 
305:344,31[O  ]| know that$3$ he ever had any such plan." 
305:344,32[E  ]| "Nay, I had it from you. You wrote me word of it 
305:344,33[E  ]| three months ago." 
305:344,34[O  ]| "Me! impossible!" 
305:344,35[E  ]| "Indeed you did. I remember it perfectly. You 
305:344,36[E  ]| mentioned it as what was certainly to$9$ be very soon. 
305:344,37[E  ]| $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry had told somebody, and was extremely happy 
305:344,38[E  ]| about$4$ it. It was owing to$4$ \her\ persuasion, as she thought$1$ his 
305:345,01[E  ]| being$1$ out$5$ in$4$ bad weather did him a great deal$0$ of harm$0$. 
305:345,02[E  ]| You must remember it now?" 
305:345,03[O  ]| "Upon$4$ my word I never heard of it till this moment." 
305:345,04[E  ]| "Never! really, never! ~~ Bless me! how could it be? 
305:345,05[E  ]| ~~ Then I must have dreamt it ~~ but I was completely 
305:345,06[E  ]| persuaded ~~ $EM#M$Miss*Smith, you walk$1$ as if you were tired. 
305:345,07[E  ]| You will$1$ not be sorry to$9$ find yourself at home." 
305:345,08[N  ]| "What is this? ~~ what is this?" 
305:345,08['  ]| cried $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
305:345,09[N  ]| "about$4$ $EM#W$Perry and a carriage? Is $EM#W$Perry going to$9$ set$1$ up$5$ 
305:345,10[N  ]| his carriage, $EM#E$Frank? I am glad he can afford it. You had 
305:345,11[N  ]| it from himself, had you?" 
305:345,12[E  ]| "No$7$, sir," 
305:345,12['  ]| replied his son, laughing, 
305:345,12[E  ]| "I seem to$9$ have 
305:345,13[E  ]| had it from nobody. ~~ Very odd! ~~ I really was persuaded 
305:345,14[E  ]| of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's having mentioned it in$4$ one of 
305:345,15[E  ]| her letters to$4$ Enscombe, many weeks ago, with all these 
305:345,16[E  ]| particulars ~~ but as she declares she never heard a syllable 
305:345,17[E  ]| of it before$5$, of course$8$ it must have been a dream$0$. I am 
305:345,18[E  ]| a great dreamer. I dream$1$ of every*body at Highbury 
305:345,19[E  ]| when I am away ~~ and when I have gone through$4$ my 
305:345,20[E  ]| particular friends, then I begin dreaming of $EM#W$Mr% and 
305:345,21[E  ]| $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry." 
305:345,22[N  ]| "It is odd though," 
305:345,22['  ]| observed his father, 
305:345,22[N  ]| "that$3$ you 
305:345,23[N  ]| should have had such a regular connected dream$0$ about$4$ 
305:345,24[N  ]| people whom$6#1$ it was not very likely you should be thinking 
305:345,25[N  ]| of at Enscombe. $EM#W$Perry's setting up$5$ his carriage! and his 
305:345,26[N  ]| wife's persuading him to$4$ it, out$5$ of care$0$ for$4$ his health ~~ just$5$ 
305:345,27[N  ]| what will$1$ happen, I have no$2$ doubt$0$, some time or other; 
305:345,28[N  ]| only a little premature. What an air of probability 
305:345,29[N  ]| sometimes runs through$4$ a dream$0$! And at others, what 
305:345,30[N  ]| a heap of absurdities it is! Well$7$, $EM#E$Frank, your dream$0$ 
305:345,31[N  ]| certainly shows$1$ that$3$ Highbury is in$4$ your thoughts 
305:345,32[N  ]| when you are absent. $EM#A$Emma, you are a great dreamer, I 
305:345,33[N  ]| think?" 
305:345,34['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was out$5$ of hearing. She had hurried on$5$ before$4$ 
305:345,35['  ]| her guests to$9$ prepare her father for$4$ their appearance, and 
305:345,36['  ]| was beyond$4$ the reach$0$ of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's hint$0$. 
305:345,37[D  ]| "Why, to$9$ own$1$ the truth," 
305:345,37['  ]| cried $EM#D$Miss*Bates, who$6#1$ had 
305:345,38['  ]| been trying in$4$ vain to$9$ be heard the last$2$ two minutes, 
305:345,38[D  ]| "if 
305:346,01[D  ]| I must speak on$4$ this subject$0$, there is no$2$ denying that$3$ 
305:346,02[D  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill might have ~~ I do not mean$1$ to$9$ say 
305:346,03[D  ]| that$3$ he did not dream$1$ it ~~ I am sure I have sometimes the 
305:346,04[D  ]| oddest dreams in$4$ the world ~~ but if I am questioned about$4$ 
305:346,05[D  ]| it, I must acknowledge that$3$ there was such an idea last$2$ 
305:346,06[D  ]| spring$0$; for$3$ $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry herself mentioned it to$4$ my mother, 
305:346,07[D  ]| and the $EM#F1$Coles knew of it as well$5$ as ourselves ~~ but it was 
305:346,08[D  ]| quite a secret$0$, known to$4$ nobody else, and only thought$1$ 
305:346,09[D  ]| of about$4$ three days. $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry was very anxious that$3$ 
305:346,10[D  ]| he should have a carriage, and came to$4$ my mother in$4$ great 
305:346,11[D  ]| spirits one morning because she thought$1$ she had prevailed. 
305:346,12[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane, don't you remember grandmamma's telling us of it 
305:346,13[D  ]| when we got home? ~~ I forget where we had been walking 
305:346,14[D  ]| to$4$ ~~ very likely to$4$ Randall's; yes, I think it was to$4$ 
305:346,15[D  ]| Randall's. $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry was always particularly fond of 
305:346,16[D  ]| my mother ~~ indeed I do not know who$6#1$ is not ~~ and she 
305:346,17[D  ]| had mentioned it to$4$ her in$4$ confidence; she had no$2$ objection 
305:346,18[D  ]| to$4$ her telling us, of course$8$, but it was not to$9$ go 
305:346,19[D  ]| beyond$5$: and, from that$6#2$ day to$4$ this, I never mentioned 
305:346,20[D  ]| it to$4$ a soul that$6#1$ I know of. At the same time, I will$1$ not 
305:346,21[D  ]| positively answer$1$ for$4$ my having never dropt a hint$0$, 
305:346,22[D  ]| because I know I do sometimes pop out$5$ a thing before$3$ 
305:346,23[D  ]| I am aware. I am a talker, you know; I am rather 
305:346,24[D  ]| a talker; and now and then I have let a thing escape$1$ me 
305:346,25[D  ]| which$6#1$ I should not. I am not like$4$ $EM#J$Jane; I wish$1$ I were. 
305:346,26[D  ]| I will$1$ answer$1$ for$4$ it \she\ never betrayed the least thing in$4$ 
305:346,27[D  ]| the world. Where is she? ~~ Oh! just$5$ behind. Perfectly 
305:346,28[D  ]| remember $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry's coming. ~~ Extraordinary dream$0$ 
305:346,29[D  ]| indeed!" 
305:346,30['  ]| They were entering the hall. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's eyes had 
305:346,31['  ]| preceded $EM#D$Miss*Bates's in$4$ a glance$0$ at $EM#J$Jane. From 
$EM#E$Frank*Churchill's 
305:346,32['  ]| face$0$, where he thought$1$ he saw confusion 
305:346,33['  ]| suppressed or laughed away, he had involuntarily turned 
305:346,34['  ]| to$4$ her's; but she was indeed behind, and too$5#1$ busy with 
305:346,35['  ]| her shawl. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had walked in$5$. The two other 
305:346,36['  ]| gentlemen waited at the door to$9$ let her pass$1$. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
305:346,37['  ]| suspected in$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
305:346,37@b   | the determination of 
305:346,38@b   | catching her eye ~~ he seemed watching her intently ~~ in$4$
305:347,01@b   | vain, however, if it were so$5#2$ ~~ $EM#J$Jane passed between them 
305:347,02@b   | into the hall, and looked at neither. 
305:347,03['  ]| There was no$2$ time for$4$ farther remark$0$ or explanation. 
305:347,04['  ]| The dream$0$ must be borne with, and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley must 
305:347,05['  ]| take his seat with the rest$0#1$ round$4$ the large modern circular 
305:347,06['  ]| table which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma had introduced at Hartfield, and which$6#1$ 
305:347,07['  ]| none but $EM#A$Emma could have had power to$9$ place$1$ there and 
305:347,08['  ]| persuade her father to$9$ use$1$, instead of the small-sized 
305:347,09['  ]| Pembroke, on$4$ which$6#1$ two of his daily meals had, for$4$ forty 
305:347,10['  ]| years, been crowded. Tea passed pleasantly, and nobody 
305:347,11['  ]| seemed in$4$ a hurry$0$ to$9$ move$1$. 
305:347,12[E  ]| "$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
305:347,12['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, after$4$ examining 
305:347,13['  ]| a table behind him, which$6#1$ he could reach$1$ as he sat, 
305:347,14[E  ]| "have your nephews taken away their alphabets ~~ their 
305:347,15[E  ]| box of letters? It used to$9$ stand$1$ here. Where is it? This 
305:347,16[E  ]| is a sort of dull-looking evening, that$6#1$ ought to$9$ be treated 
305:347,17[E  ]| rather as winter than summer. We had great amusement 
305:347,18[E  ]| with those letters one morning. I want$1$ to$9$ puzzle$1$ you 
305:347,19[E  ]| again." 
305:347,20['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was pleased with the thought$0$; and producing 
305:347,21['  ]| the box, the table was quickly scattered over with alphabets, 
305:347,22['  ]| which$6#1$ no*one seemed so$5#1$ much disposed to$9$ employ 
305:347,23['  ]| as their two selves. They were rapidly forming words for$4$ 
305:347,24['  ]| each other, or for$4$ any*body else who$6#1$ would be puzzled. 
305:347,25['  ]| The quietness of the game made it particularly eligible 
305:347,26['  ]| for$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ had often been distressed by$4$ the 
305:347,27['  ]| more animated sort, which$6#1$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had occasionally 
305:347,28['  ]| introduced, and who$6#1$ now sat happily occupied in$4$ lamenting, 
305:347,29['  ]| with tender$2$ melancholy$0$, over the departure of the 
305:347,30[P  ]| "poor little boys," 
305:347,30['  ]| or in$4$ fondly pointing out$5$, as he took 
305:347,31['  ]| up$5$ any stray letter near$4$ him, how beautifully $EM#A$Emma had 
305:347,32['  ]| written it. 
305:347,33['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill placed a word before$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. 
305:347,34['  ]| She gave a slight$2$ glance$0$ round$4$ the table, and applied 
305:347,35['  ]| herself to$4$ it. $EM#E$Frank was next to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, $EM#J$Jane opposite 
305:347,36['  ]| to$4$ them ~~ and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley so$5#2$ placed as to$9$ see them all; 
305:347,37['  ]| and it was his object$0$ to$9$ see as much as he could, with as 
305:347,38['  ]| little apparent observation. The word was discovered, 
305:348,01['  ]| and with a faint$2$ smile$0$ pushed away. If meant to$9$ be 
305:348,02['  ]| immediately mixed with the others, and buried from sight, 
305:348,03['  ]| she should have looked on$4$ the table instead of looking just$5$ 
305:348,04['  ]| across$5$, for$3$ it was not mixed; and $EM#M$Harriet, eager after$4$ 
305:348,05['  ]| every fresh word, and finding out$5$ none, directly took it 
305:348,06['  ]| up$5$, and fell to$4$ work$0$. She was sitting by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
305:348,07['  ]| and turned to$4$ him for$4$ help$0$. The word was \blunder$0$\; and 
305:348,08['  ]| as $EM#M$Harriet exultingly proclaimed it, there was a blush$0$ on$4$ 
305:348,09['  ]| $EM#J$Jane's cheek which$6#1$ gave it a meaning not otherwise 
305:348,10['  ]| ostensible. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley connected it with the dream$0$; 
305:348,11@b   | but how it could all be, was beyond$4$ his comprehension. 
305:348,12@b   | How the delicacy, the discretion of his favourite$0$ could 
305:348,13@b   | have been so$5#2$ lain asleep! He feared there must be some 
305:348,14@b   | decided involvement. Disingenuousness and double-dealing 
305:348,15@b   | seemed to$9$ meet$1$ him at every turn$0$. These letters 
305:348,16@b   | were but the vehicle for$4$ gallantry and trick$0$. It was 
305:348,17@b   | a child's play$0$, chosen to$9$ conceal a deeper game on$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's 
305:348,18@b   | part$0$. 
305:348,19['  ]| With great indignation did he continue to$9$ observe him; 
305:348,20['  ]| with great alarm$0$ and distrust$0$, to$9$ observe also his two 
305:348,21['  ]| blinded companions. He saw a short word prepared for$4$ 
305:348,22['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, and given to$4$ her with a look$0$ sly and demure. He 
305:348,23['  ]| saw that$3$ $EM#A$Emma had soon made it out$5$, and found it highly 
305:348,24['  ]| entertaining, though it was something which$6#1$ she judged 
305:348,25['  ]| it proper to$9$ appear to$9$ censure$1$; for$3$ she said, 
305:348,25[A  ]| "Nonsense! 
305:348,26[A  ]| for$4$ shame$0$!" 
305:348,26['  ]| He heard $EM#E$Frank*Churchill next say, with 
305:348,27['  ]| a glance$0$ towards $EM#J$Jane, 
305:348,27[E  ]| "I will$1$ give it to$4$ her ~~ shall I?" ~~ 
305:348,28['  ]| and as clearly heard $EM#A$Emma opposing it with eager laughing 
305:348,29['  ]| warmth. 
305:348,29[A  ]| "No$7$, no$7$, you must not; you shall not, indeed." 
305:348,30@b   | It was done however. This gallant young man, who$6#1$ 
305:348,31@b   | seemed to$9$ love$1$ without feeling, and to$9$ recommend himself 
305:348,32@b   | without complaisance, directly handed over the word to$4$ 
305:348,33@b   | $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, and with a particular degree of sedate civility 
305:348,34@b   | entreated her to$9$ study$1$ it. 
305:348,34['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's excessive 
305:348,35['  ]| curiosity to$9$ know what this word might be, made him 
305:348,36['  ]| seize every possible moment for$4$ darting his eye towards 
305:348,37['  ]| it, and it was not long before$3$ he saw it to$9$ be \$EM#ZF$Dixon\. 
305:348,37@b   | $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's 
305:348,38@b   | perception seemed to$9$ accompany his; her comprehension 
305:349,01@b   | was certainly more equal$2$ to$4$ the covert meaning, 
305:349,02@b   | the superior intelligence, of those five letters so$5#2$ arranged. 
305:349,03@b   | She was evidently displeased; looked up$5$, and seeing 
305:349,04@b   | herself watched, blushed more deeply than he had ever 
305:349,05@b   | perceived her, and saying only, 
305:349,05[J  ]| "I did not know that$3$ 
305:349,06[J  ]| proper names were allowed," 
305:349,06@b   | pushed away the letters 
305:349,07@b   | with even$5$ an angry spirit, and looked resolved to$9$ be 
305:349,08@b   | engaged by$4$ no$2$ other word that$6#1$ could be offered. Her face$0$ 
305:349,09@b   | was averted from those who$6#1$ had made the attack$0$, and 
305:349,10@b   | turned towards her aunt. 
305:349,11[D  ]| "Ay, very true, my dear$2#1$," 
305:349,11['  ]| cried the latter, though $EM#J$Jane 
305:349,12['  ]| had not spoken a word ~~ 
305:349,12[D  ]| "I was just$5$ going to$9$ say the same 
305:349,13[D  ]| thing. It is time for$4$ us to$9$ be going indeed. The evening 
305:349,14[D  ]| is closing in$5$, and grandmamma will$1$ be looking for$4$ us. My 
305:349,15[D  ]| dear$2#1$ sir, you are too$5#1$ obliging. We really must wish$1$ you 
305:349,16[D  ]| good night." 
305:349,17@b   | $EM#J$Jane's alertness in$4$ moving, proved her as ready as her 
305:349,18@b   | aunt had preconceived. She was immediately up$5$, and 
305:349,19@b   | wanting to$9$ quit the table; but so$5#1$ many were also moving, 
305:349,20@b   | that$3$ she could not get away; 
305:349,20['  ]| and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley thought$1$ 
305:349,21@b   | he saw another collection of letters anxiously pushed 
305:349,22@b   | towards her, and resolutely swept away by$4$ her unexamined. 
305:349,23@b   | She was afterwards looking for$4$ her shawl ~~ 
305:349,24@b   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill was looking also ~~ it was growing dusk, 
305:349,25@b   | and the room was in$4$ confusion; 
305:349,25['  ]| and how they parted, 
305:349,26['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley could not tell. 
305:349,27['  ]| He remained at Hartfield after$4$ all the rest$0#1$, his thoughts 
305:349,28['  ]| full of what he had seen; so$5#1$ full, that$3$ when the candles 
305:349,29['  ]| came to$9$ assist his observations, 
305:349,29@b   | he must ~~ yes, he certainly 
305:349,30@b   | must, as a friend ~~ an anxious friend ~~ give $EM#A$Emma some 
305:349,31@b   | hint$0$, ask her some question$0$. He could not see her in$4$ 
305:349,32@b   | a situation of such danger, without trying to$9$ preserve 
305:349,33@b   | her. It was his duty. 
305:349,34[B  ]| "Pray, $EM#A$Emma," 
305:349,34['  ]| said he, 
305:349,34[B  ]| "may$1$ I ask in$4$ what lay$1#2$ the 
305:349,35[B  ]| great amusement, the poignant sting of the last$2$ word 
305:349,36[B  ]| given to$4$ you and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax? I saw the word, and am 
305:349,37[B  ]| curious to$9$ know how it could be so$5#1$ very entertaining to$4$ 
305:349,38[B  ]| the one, and so$5#1$ very distressing to$4$ the other." 
305:350,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was extremely confused. She could not endure 
305:350,02['  ]| to$9$ give him the true explanation; for$3$ though her suspicions 
305:350,03['  ]| were by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ removed, she was really ashamed of 
305:350,04['  ]| having ever imparted them. 
305:350,05[A  ]| "Oh!" 
305:350,05['  ]| she cried in$4$ evident embarrassment, 
305:350,05[A  ]| "it all 
305:350,06[A  ]| meant nothing; a mere joke among ourselves." 
305:350,07[B  ]| "The joke," 
305:350,07['  ]| he replied gravely, 
305:350,07[B  ]| "seemed confined to$4$ 
305:350,08[B  ]| you and $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill." 
305:350,09['  ]| He had hoped she would speak again, but she did not. 
305:350,10@b   | She would rather busy herself about$4$ any*thing than speak. 
305:350,11['  ]| He sat a little while$0$ in$4$ doubt$0$. A variety of evils crossed 
305:350,12['  ]| his mind$0$. 
305:350,12@b   | Interference ~~ fruitless interference. $EM#A$Emma's 
305:350,13@b   | confusion, and the acknowledged intimacy, seemed to$9$ 
305:350,14@b   | declare her affection engaged. Yet he would speak. He 
305:350,15@b   | owed it to$4$ her, to$9$ risk$1$ any*thing that$6#1$ might be involved in$4$ 
305:350,16@b   | an unwelcome interference, rather than her welfare; to$9$ 
305:350,17@b   | encounter any*thing, rather than the remembrance of 
305:350,18@b   | neglect$0$ in$4$ such a cause. 
305:350,19[B  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma," 
305:350,19['  ]| said he at last$0$, with earnest kindness, 
305:350,20[B  ]| "do you think you perfectly understand the degree of 
305:350,21[B  ]| acquaintance between the gentleman and lady we have 
305:350,22[B  ]| been speaking of?" 
305:350,23[A  ]| "Between $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax! Oh! 
305:350,24[A  ]| yes, perfectly. ~~ Why do you make$1$ a doubt$0$ of it?" 
305:350,25[B  ]| "Have you never at any time had reason$0$ to$9$ think that$3$ 
305:350,26[B  ]| he admired her, or that$3$ she admired him?" 
305:350,27[A  ]| "Never, never!" ~~ 
305:350,27['  ]| she cried with a most open$2$ eagerness 
305:350,28['  ]| ~~ 
305:350,28[A  ]| "Never, for$4$ the twentieth part$0$ of a moment, did such 
305:350,29[A  ]| an idea occur to$4$ me. And how could it possibly come into 
305:350,30[A  ]| your head$0$?" 
305:350,31[B  ]| "I have lately imagined that$3$ I saw symptoms of 
305:350,32[B  ]| attachment between them ~~ certain expressive looks$0$, 
305:350,33[B  ]| which$6#1$ I did not believe meant to$9$ be public$2$." 
305:350,34[A  ]| "Oh! you amuse me excessively. I am delighted to$9$ 
305:350,35[A  ]| find that$3$ you can vouchsafe to$9$ let your imagination 
305:350,36[A  ]| wander ~~ but it will$1$ not do ~~ very sorry to$9$ check$1$ you in$4$ 
305:350,37[A  ]| your first essay ~~ but indeed it will$1$ not do. There is no$2$ 
305:350,38[A  ]| admiration between them, I do assure you; and the 
305:351,01[A  ]| appearances which$6#1$ have caught you, have arisen from 
305:351,02[A  ]| some peculiar circumstances ~~ feelings rather of a totally 
305:351,03[A  ]| different nature: ~~ it is impossible exactly to$9$ explain: ~~ 
305:351,04[A  ]| there is a good deal$0$ of nonsense in$4$ it ~~ but the part$0$ which$6#1$ 
305:351,05[A  ]| is capable of being$1$ communicated, which$6#1$ is sense, is, that$3$ 
305:351,06[A  ]| they are as far from any attachment or admiration for$4$ 
305:351,07[A  ]| one another, as any two beings in$4$ the world can be. That$6#2$ 
305:351,08[A  ]| is, I \presume\ it to$9$ be so$5#2$ on$4$ her side$0$, and I can \answer$1$\ for$4$ 
305:351,09[A  ]| its being$1$ so$5#2$ on$4$ his. I will$1$ answer$1$ for$4$ the gentleman's 
305:351,10[A  ]| indifference." 
305:351,11['  ]| She spoke with a confidence which$6#1$ staggered, with 
305:351,12['  ]| a satisfaction which$6#1$ silenced , $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. She was in$4$ 
305:351,13['  ]| gay spirits, and would have prolonged the conversation, 
305:351,14['  ]| wanting to$9$ hear the particulars of his suspicions, every 
305:351,15['  ]| look$0$ described, and all the wheres and hows of a circumstance 
305:351,16['  ]| which$6#1$ highly entertained her: but his gaiety did 
305:351,17['  ]| not meet$1$ her's. He found he could not be useful, and his 
305:351,18['  ]| feelings were too$5#1$ much irritated for$4$ talking. That$3$ he 
305:351,19['  ]| might not be irritated into an absolute fever, by$4$ the fire$0$ 
305:351,20['  ]| which$6#1$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's tender$2$ habits required almost 
305:351,21['  ]| every evening throughout the year, he soon afterwards 
305:351,22['  ]| took a hasty leave$0$, and walked home to$4$ the coolness and 
305:351,23['  ]| solitude of Donwell*Abbey. 
306:352,01['  ]| After$4$ being$1$ long fed with hopes$0$ of a speedy visit$0$ from 
306:352,02['  ]| $EM#W$Mr% and $EM#V$Mrs%*Suckling, the Highbury world were obliged 
306:352,03['  ]| to$9$ endure the mortification of hearing that$3$ they could not 
306:352,04['  ]| possibly come till the autumn. No$2$ such importation of 
306:352,05['  ]| novelties could enrich their intellectual stores at present$0#1$. 
306:352,06['  ]| In$4$ the daily interchange of news, they must be again 
306:352,07['  ]| restricted to$4$ the other topics with which$6#1$ for$4$ a while$0$ the 
306:352,08['  ]| $EM#W2$Sucklings' coming had been united, such as the last$2$ 
306:352,09['  ]| accounts of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, whose$6#1$ health seemed every 
306:352,10['  ]| day to$9$ supply$1$ a different report$0$, and the situation of 
306:352,11['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, whose$6#1$ happiness it was to$9$ be hoped might 
306:352,12['  ]| eventually be as much increased by$4$ the arrival of a child, 
306:352,13['  ]| as that$6#2$ of all her neighbours was by$4$ the approach$0$ of it. 
306:352,14['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was very much disappointed. It was the 
306:352,15['  ]| delay$0$ of a great deal$0$ of pleasure and parade$0$. Her introductions 
306:352,16['  ]| and recommendations must all wait, and every 
306:352,17['  ]| projected party be still$5$ only talked of. So$5#2$ she thought$1$ at 
306:352,18['  ]| first; ~~ but a little consideration convinced her that$3$ every*thing 
306:352,19['  ]| need$1$ not be put off. 
306:352,19@i   | Why should not they explore 
306:352,20@i   | to$4$ Box*Hill though the $EM#W2$Sucklings did not come? They 
306:352,21@i   | could go there again with them in$4$ the autumn. 
306:352,21['  ]| It was 
306:352,22['  ]| settled that$3$ they should go to$4$ Box*Hill. That$3$ there was 
306:352,23['  ]| to$9$ be such a party had been long generally known: it had 
306:352,24['  ]| even$5$ given the idea of another. $EM#A$Emma had never been 
306:352,25['  ]| to$4$ Box*Hill; she wished to$9$ see what every*body found so$5#1$ 
306:352,26['  ]| well$5$ worth seeing, and she and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had agreed 
306:352,27['  ]| to$9$ choose some fine morning and drive$1$ thither. Two or 
306:352,28['  ]| three more of the chosen only were to$9$ be admitted to$9$ join 
306:352,29['  ]| them, and it was to$9$ be done in$4$ a quiet$2$, unpretending, 
306:352,30['  ]| elegant way, infinitely superior to$4$ the bustle$0$ and preparation, 
306:352,31['  ]| the regular eating and drinking, and pic-nic parade$0$ 
306:352,32['  ]| of the $EM#H1$Eltons and the $EM#W2$Sucklings. 
306:353,01['  ]| This was so$5#1$ very well$5$ understood between them, that$3$ 
306:353,02['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not but feel some surprise$0$, and a little displeasure, 
306:353,03['  ]| on$4$ hearing from $EM#N$Mr%*Weston that$3$ he had been 
306:353,04['  ]| proposing to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, as her brother and sister had 
306:353,05['  ]| failed her, that$3$ the two parties should unite, and go 
306:353,06['  ]| together; and that$3$ as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton had very readily acceded 
306:353,07['  ]| to$4$ it, so$5#2$ it was to$9$ be, if she had no$2$ objection. 
306:353,07@a   | Now, as her 
306:353,08@a   | objection was nothing but her very great dislike$0$ of 
306:353,09@a   | $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, of which$6#1$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston must already be perfectly 
306:353,10@a   | aware, it was not worth bringing forward$5$ again: ~~ it could 
306:353,11@a   | not be done without a reproof to$4$ him, which$6#1$ would be 
306:353,12@a   | giving pain$0$ to$4$ his wife; 
306:353,12['  ]| and she found herself therefore 
306:353,13['  ]| obliged to$9$ consent$1$ to$4$ an arrangement which$6#1$ she would 
306:353,14['  ]| have done a great deal$0$ to$9$ avoid; an arrangement which$6#1$ 
306:353,15['  ]| would probably expose her even$5$ to$4$ the degradation of 
306:353,16['  ]| being$1$ said to$9$ be of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's party! Every feeling was 
306:353,17['  ]| offended; and the forbearance of her outward submission 
306:353,18['  ]| left a heavy arrear due$2$ of secret$2$ severity in$4$ her reflections 
306:353,19['  ]| on$4$ the unmanageable good-will of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's temper. 
306:353,20[N  ]| "I am glad you approve of what I have done," 
306:353,20['  ]| said he 
306:353,21['  ]| very comfortably. 
306:353,21[N  ]| "But I thought$1$ you would. Such 
306:353,22[N  ]| schemes as these are nothing without numbers. One 
306:353,23[N  ]| cannot have too$5#1$ large a party. A large party secures its 
306:353,24[N  ]| own$2$ amusement. And she is a good-natured woman after$4$ 
306:353,25[N  ]| all. One could not leave$1$ her out$5$." 
306:353,26['  ]| $EM#A$Emma denied none of it aloud, and agreed to$4$ none of it 
306:353,27['  ]| in$4$ private$0$. 
306:353,28['  ]| It was now the middle of June, and the weather fine; 
306:353,29['  ]| and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was growing impatient to$9$ name$1$ the day, 
306:353,30['  ]| and settle with $EM#N$Mr%*Weston as to$4$ pigeon-pies and cold$2$ 
306:353,31['  ]| lamb, when a lame carriage-horse threw every*thing into 
306:353,32['  ]| sad uncertainty. It might be weeks, it might be only 
306:353,33['  ]| a few days, before$3$ the horse were useable, but no$2$ preparations 
306:353,34['  ]| could be ventured on$5$, and it was all melancholy$2$ 
306:353,35['  ]| stagnation. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's resources were inadequate to$4$ 
306:353,36['  ]| such an attack$0$. 
306:353,37[I  ]| "Is not this most vexatious, $EM#B$Knightley?" 
306:353,37['  ]| she cried. ~~ 
306:353,38[I  ]| "And such weather for$4$ exploring! ~~ These delays and 
306:354,01[I  ]| disappointments are quite odious. What are we to$9$ do? ~~ 
306:354,02[I  ]| The year will$1$ wear away at this rate$0$, and nothing done. 
306:354,03[I  ]| Before$4$ this time last$2$ year I assure you we had had a delightful 
306:354,04[I  ]| exploring party from Maple*Grove to$4$ Kings*Weston." 
306:354,05[B  ]| "You had better explore to$4$ Donwell," 
306:354,05['  ]| replied $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
306:354,06[B  ]| "That$6#2$ may$1$ be done without horses. Come, 
306:354,07[B  ]| and eat my strawberries. They are ripening fast." 
306:354,08['  ]| If $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley did not begin seriously, he was obliged 
306:354,09['  ]| to$9$ proceed so$5#2$, for$3$ his proposal was caught at with delight$0$; 
306:354,10['  ]| and the 
306:354,10[I  ]| "Oh! I should like$1$ it of all things," 
306:354,10['  ]| was not 
306:354,11['  ]| plainer in$4$ words than manner. Donwell was famous for$4$ 
306:354,12['  ]| its strawberry-beds, which$6#1$ seemed a plea for$4$ the invitation: 
306:354,13['  ]| but no$2$ plea was necessary; cabbage-beds would have 
306:354,14['  ]| been enough to$9$ tempt the lady, who$6#1$ only wanted to$9$ be 
306:354,15['  ]| going somewhere. She promised him again and again to$9$ 
306:354,16['  ]| come ~~ much oftener than he doubted ~~ and was extremely 
306:354,17['  ]| gratified by$4$ such a proof of intimacy, such a distinguishing 
306:354,18['  ]| compliment$0$ as she chose to$9$ consider it. 
306:354,19[I  ]| "You may$1$ depend upon$4$ me," 
306:354,19['  ]| said she. 
306:354,19[I  ]| "I certainly 
306:354,20[I  ]| will$1$ come. Name$1$ your day, and I will$1$ come. You will$1$ 
306:354,21[I  ]| allow me to$9$ bring $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax?" 
306:354,22[B  ]| "I cannot name$1$ a day," 
306:354,22['  ]| said he, 
306:354,22[B  ]| "till I have spoken 
306:354,23[B  ]| to$4$ some others whom$6#1$ I would wish$1$ to$9$ meet$1$ you." 
306:354,24[I  ]| "Oh! leave$1$ all that$6#2$ to$4$ me. Only give me a carte-blanche. ~~ 
306:354,25[I  ]| I am Lady*Patroness, you know. It is my 
306:354,26[I  ]| party. I will$1$ bring friends with me." 
306:354,27[B  ]| "I hope$1$ you will$1$ bring $EM#H$Elton," 
306:354,27['  ]| said he: ~~ 
306:354,27[B  ]| "but I will$1$ not 
306:354,28[B  ]| trouble$1$ you to$9$ give any other invitations." 
306:354,29[I  ]| "Oh! now you are looking very sly. But consider; ~~ 
306:354,30[I  ]| you need$1$ not be afraid of delegating power to$4$ \me\. I am 
306:354,31[I  ]| no$2$ young lady on$4$ her preferment. Married women, you 
306:354,32[I  ]| know, may$1$ be safely authorized. It is my party. Leave$1$ 
306:354,33[I  ]| it all to$4$ me. I will$1$ invite your guests." 
306:354,34[B  ]| "No$7$," ~~ 
306:354,34['  ]| he calmly replied, ~~ 
306:354,34[B  ]| "there is but one married 
306:354,35[B  ]| woman in$4$ the world whom$6#1$ I can ever allow to$9$ invite what 
306:354,36[B  ]| guests she pleases to$4$ Donwell, and that$6#2$ one is ~~" 
306:354,37[I  ]| " ~~ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, I suppose," 
306:354,37['  ]| interrupted $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, 
306:354,38['  ]| rather mortified. 
306:355,01[B  ]| "No$7$ ~~ $EM#X4$Mrs%*Knightley; ~~ and, till she is in$4$ being$1$, I will$1$ 
306:355,02[B  ]| manage such matters myself." 
306:355,03[I  ]| "Ah! you are an odd creature!" 
306:355,03['  ]| she cried, satisfied 
306:355,04['  ]| to$9$ have no*one preferred to$4$ herself. ~~ 
306:355,04[I  ]| "You are a humourist, 
306:355,05[I  ]| and may$1$ say what you like$1$. Quite a humourist. Well$7$, 
306:355,06[I  ]| I shall bring $EM#J$Jane with me ~~ $EM#J$Jane and her aunt. ~~ The rest$0#1$ 
306:355,07[I  ]| I leave$1$ to$4$ you. I have no$2$ objections at all to$4$ meeting the 
306:355,08[I  ]| Hartfield family. Don't scruple$1$. I know you are attached 
306:355,09[I  ]| to$4$ them." 
306:355,10[B  ]| "You certainly will$1$ meet$1$ them if I can prevail; and 
306:355,11[B  ]| I shall call$1$ on$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates in$4$ my way home." 
306:355,12[I  ]| "That's quite unnecessary; I see $EM#J$Jane every day: ~~ 
306:355,13[I  ]| but as you like$1$. It is to$9$ be a morning scheme$0$, you know, 
306:355,14[I  ]| $EM#B$Knightley; quite a simple$2$ thing. I shall wear a large 
306:355,15[I  ]| bonnet, and bring one of my little baskets hanging on$4$ my 
306:355,16[I  ]| arm$0$. Here, ~~ probably this basket with pink ribbon. 
306:355,17[I  ]| Nothing can be more simple$2$, you see. And $EM#J$Jane will$1$ have 
306:355,18[I  ]| such another. There is to$9$ be no$2$ form$0$ or parade$0$ ~~ a sort 
306:355,19[I  ]| of gipsy party. ~~ We are to$9$ walk$1$ about$4$ your gardens, and 
306:355,20[I  ]| gather the strawberries ourselves, and sit under trees; ~~ 
306:355,21[I  ]| and whatever else you may$1$ like$1$ to$9$ provide, it is to$9$ be all 
306:355,22[I  ]| out$5$ of doors ~~ a table spread in$4$ the shade, you know. 
306:355,23[I  ]| Every*thing as natural$2$ and simple$2$ as possible. Is not 
306:355,24[I  ]| that$6#2$ your idea?" 
306:355,25[B  ]| "Not quite. My idea of the simple$0$ and the natural$0$ 
306:355,26[B  ]| will$1$ be to$9$ have the table spread in$4$ the dining-room. The 
306:355,27[B  ]| nature and the simplicity of gentlemen and ladies, with 
306:355,28[B  ]| their servants and furniture, I think is best observed by$4$ 
306:355,29[B  ]| meals within doors. When you are tired of eating strawberries 
306:355,30[B  ]| in$4$ the garden, there shall be cold$2$ meat in$4$ the house." 
306:355,31[I  ]| "Well$7$ ~~ as you please; only don't have a great set*out. 
306:355,32[I  ]| And, by*the*bye, can I or my housekeeper be of any use$0$ 
306:355,33[I  ]| to$4$ you with our opinion? ~~ Pray be sincere, $EM#B$Knightley. 
306:355,34[I  ]| If you wish$1$ me to$9$ talk$1$ to$4$ $EM#ZZI$Mrs%*Hodges, or to$9$ inspect 
306:355,35[I  ]| anything ~~." 
306:355,36[B  ]| "I have not the least wish$0$ for$4$ it, I thank you." 
306:355,37[I  ]| "Well$7$ ~~ but if any difficulties should arise, my house-keeper 
306:355,38[I  ]| is extremely clever." 
306:356,01[B  ]| "I will$1$ answer$1$ for$4$ it, that$3$ mine$6$ thinks herself full as 
306:356,02[B  ]| clever, and would spurn anybody's assistance." 
306:356,03[I  ]| "I wish$1$ we had a donkey. The thing would be for$4$ us 
306:356,04[I  ]| all to$9$ come on$4$ donkies, $EM#J$Jane, $EM#D$Miss*Bates, and me ~~ and my 
306:356,05[I  ]| caro*sposo walking by$5$. I really must talk$1$ to$4$ him about$4$ 
306:356,06[I  ]| purchasing a donkey. In$4$ a country life I conceive it to$9$ 
306:356,07[I  ]| be a sort of necessary; for$3$, let a woman have ever so$5#1$ many 
306:356,08[I  ]| resources, it is not possible for$4$ her to$9$ be always shut up$5$ 
306:356,09[I  ]| at home; ~~ and very long walks$0$, you know ~~ in$4$ summer 
306:356,10[I  ]| there is dust, and in$4$ winter there is dirt." 
306:356,11[B  ]| "You will$1$ not find either, between Donwell and Highbury. 
306:356,12[B  ]| Donwell-lane is never dusty, and now it is perfectly 
306:356,13[B  ]| dry$2$. Come on$4$ a donkey, however, if you prefer it. You 
306:356,14[B  ]| can borrow $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole's. I would wish$1$ every*thing to$9$ be 
306:356,15[B  ]| as much to$4$ your taste as possible." 
306:356,16[I  ]| "That$6#2$ I am sure you would. Indeed I do you justice, 
306:356,17[I  ]| my good friend. Under that$6#2$ peculiar sort of dry$2$, blunt 
306:356,18[I  ]| manner, I know you have the warmest heart. As I tell 
306:356,19[I  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*E%, you are a thorough humourist. ~~ Yes, believe me, 
306:356,20[I  ]| $EM#B$Knightley, I am fully sensible$2#1$ of your attention to$4$ me in$4$ 
306:356,21[I  ]| the whole$0$ of this scheme$0$. You have hit upon$4$ the very 
306:356,22[I  ]| thing to$9$ please me." 
306:356,23['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had another reason$0$ for$4$ avoiding a table 
306:356,24['  ]| in$4$ the shade. He wished to$9$ persuade $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, as 
306:356,25['  ]| well$5$ as $EM#A$Emma, to$9$ join the party; and he knew that$3$ to$9$ 
306:356,26['  ]| have any of them sitting down$5$ out$5$ of doors to$9$ eat would 
306:356,27['  ]| inevitably make$1$ him ill. 
306:356,27@b   | $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse must not, under 
306:356,28@b   | the specious pretence of a morning drive$0$, and an hour or 
306:356,29@b   | two spent at Donwell, be tempted away to$4$ his misery. 
306:356,30['  ]| He was invited on$4$ good faith. No$2$ lurking horrors were 
306:356,31['  ]| to$9$ upbraid him for$4$ his easy credulity. He did consent$1$. 
306:356,32['  ]| He had not been at Donwell for$4$ two years. 
306:356,32[P  ]| "Some very 
306:356,33[P  ]| fine morning, he, and $EM#A$Emma, and $EM#M$Harriet, could go very 
306:356,34[P  ]| well$5$; and he could sit still$2$ with $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, while$3$ the 
306:356,35[P  ]| dear$2#1$ girls walked about$4$ the gardens. He did not suppose 
306:356,36[P  ]| they could be damp$2$ now, in$4$ the middle of the day. He 
306:356,37[P  ]| should like$1$ to$9$ see the old house again exceedingly, and 
306:356,38[P  ]| should be very happy to$9$ meet$1$ $EM#H$Mr% and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, and 
306:357,01[P  ]| any other of his neighbours. ~~ He could not see any 
306:357,02[P  ]| objection at all to$4$ his, and $EM#A$Emma's, and $EM#M$Harriet's, going 
306:357,03[P  ]| there some very fine morning. He thought$1$ it very well$5$ 
306:357,04[P  ]| done of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley to$9$ invite them ~~ very kind$2$ and 
306:357,05[P  ]| sensible$2#2$ ~~ much cleverer than dining out$5$. ~~ He was not 
306:357,06[P  ]| fond of dining out$5$." 
306:357,07['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was fortunate in$4$ every*body's most ready 
306:357,08['  ]| concurrence. The invitation was every*where so$5#1$ well$5$ 
306:357,09['  ]| received, that$3$ it seemed as if, like$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, they were 
306:357,10['  ]| all taking the scheme$0$ as a particular compliment$0$ to$4$ 
306:357,11['  ]| themselves. ~~ $EM#A$Emma and $EM#M$Harriet professed very high 
306:357,12['  ]| expectations of pleasure from it; and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
306:357,13['  ]| unasked, promised to$9$ get $EM#E$Frank over to$9$ join them, if 
306:357,14['  ]| possible; a proof of approbation and gratitude which$6#1$ 
306:357,15['  ]| could have been dispensed with. ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was then 
306:357,16['  ]| obliged to$9$ say that$3$ he should be glad to$9$ see him; and 
306:357,17['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston engaged to$9$ lose no$2$ time in$4$ writing, and spare$1$ 
306:357,18['  ]| no$2$ arguments to$9$ induce him to$9$ come. 
306:357,19['  ]| In$4$ the meanwhile the lame horse recovered so$5#1$ fast, that$3$ 
306:357,20['  ]| the party to$4$ Box*Hill was again under happy consideration; 
306:357,21['  ]| and at last$0$ Donwell was settled for$4$ one day, and 
306:357,22['  ]| Box*Hill for$4$ the next, ~~ the weather appearing exactly 
306:357,23['  ]| right$2#1$. 
306:357,24['  ]| Under a bright mid-day sun, at almost Midsummer, 
306:357,25['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse was safely conveyed in$4$ his carriage, with 
306:357,26['  ]| one window down$5$, to$9$ partake of this al-fresco party; and 
306:357,27['  ]| in$4$ one of the most comfortable rooms in$4$ the abbey, 
306:357,28['  ]| especially prepared for$4$ him by$4$ a fire$0$ all the morning, he 
306:357,29['  ]| was happily placed, quite at his ease$0$, ready to$9$ talk$1$ with 
306:357,30['  ]| pleasure of what had been atchieved, and advise every*body 
306:357,31['  ]| to$9$ come and sit down$5$, and not to$9$ heat$1$ themselves. ~~ 
306:357,32['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, who$6#1$ seemed to$9$ have walked there on$4$ purpose 
306:357,33['  ]| to$9$ be tired, and sit all the time with him, remained, when 
306:357,34['  ]| all the others were invited or persuaded out$5$, his patient 
306:357,35['  ]| listener and sympathizer. 
306:357,36['  ]| It was so$5#1$ long since $EM#A$Emma had been at the Abbey, that$3$ 
306:357,37['  ]| as soon as she was satisfied of her father's comfort$0$, she 
306:357,38['  ]| was glad to$9$ leave$1$ him, and look$1$ around$4$ her; eager to$9$ 
306:358,01['  ]| refresh and correct$1$ her memory with more particular observation, 
306:358,02['  ]| more exact$2$ understanding of a house and grounds 
306:358,03['  ]| which$6#1$ must ever be so$5#1$ interesting to$4$ her and all her family. 
306:358,04['  ]| She felt all the honest pride and complacency which$6#1$ her 
306:358,05['  ]| alliance with the present$2$ and future proprietor could fairly 
306:358,06['  ]| warrant, as she viewed the respectable size and style of the 
306:358,07['  ]| building, its suitable, becoming, characteristic situation, 
306:358,08['  ]| low and sheltered ~~ its ample gardens stretching down$5$ to$4$ 
306:358,09['  ]| meadows washed by$4$ a stream, of which$6#1$ the Abbey, with 
306:358,10['  ]| all the old neglect$0$ of prospect, had scarcely a sight ~~ and 
306:358,11['  ]| its abundance of timber in$4$ rows and avenues, which$6#1$ neither 
306:358,12['  ]| fashion$0$ nor extravagance had rooted up$5$. ~~ The house was 
306:358,13['  ]| larger than Hartfield, and totally unlike it, covering a good 
306:358,14['  ]| deal$0$ of ground, rambling and irregular, with many comfortable 
306:358,15['  ]| and one or two handsome rooms. ~~ 
306:358,15@a   | It was just$5$ 
306:358,16@a   | what it ought to$9$ be, and it looked what it was ~~ 
306:358,16['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma 
306:358,17['  ]| felt an increasing respect$0$ for$4$ it, 
306:358,17@a   | as the residence of a family 
306:358,18@a   | of such true gentility, untainted in$4$ blood and understanding. ~~ 
306:358,19@a   | Some faults of temper $EM#K$John*Knightley had; 
306:358,20@a   | but $EM#L$Isabella had connected herself unexceptionably. She 
306:358,21@a   | had given them neither men, nor names, nor places$0$, that$6#1$ 
306:358,22@a   | could raise a blush$0$. 
306:358,22['  ]| These were pleasant feelings, and she 
306:358,23['  ]| walked about$5$ and indulged them till it was necessary to$9$ 
306:358,24['  ]| do as the others did, and collect round$4$ the strawberry*beds. ~~ 
306:358,25['  ]| The whole$2$ party were assembled, excepting $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
306:358,26['  ]| who$6#1$ was expected every moment from Richmond; 
306:358,27['  ]| and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, in$4$ all her apparatus of happiness, 
306:358,28['  ]| her large bonnet and her basket, was very ready to$9$ lead$1$ 
306:358,29['  ]| the way in$4$ gathering, accepting, or talking ~~ strawberries, 
306:358,30['  ]| and only strawberries, could now be thought$1$ or spoken of. 
306:358,31['  ]| ~~ 
306:358,31[I  ]| "The best fruit in$4$ England ~~ every*body's favourite$0$ ~~ 
306:358,32[I  ]| always wholesome. ~~ These the finest beds and finest sorts. 
306:358,33[I  ]| ~~ Delightful to$9$ gather for$4$ one's self ~~ the only way of 
306:358,34[I  ]| really enjoying them. ~~ Morning decidedly the best time ~~ 
306:358,35[I  ]| never tired ~~ every sort good ~~ hautboy infinitely superior 
306:358,36[I  ]| ~~ no$2$ comparison ~~ the others hardly eatable ~~ hautboys 
306:358,37[I  ]| very scarce ~~ Chili preferred ~~ white wood finest flavour 
306:358,38[I  ]| of all ~~ price of strawberries in$4$ London ~~ abundance about$4$ 
306:359,01[I  ]| Bristol ~~ Maple*Grove ~~ cultivation ~~ beds when to$9$ be 
306:359,02[I  ]| renewed ~~ gardeners thinking exactly different ~~ no$2$ general$2$ 
306:359,03[I  ]| rule ~~ gardeners never to$9$ be put out$5$ of their way ~~ 
306:359,04[I  ]| delicious fruit ~~ only too$5#1$ rich to$9$ be eaten much of ~~ inferior 
306:359,05[I  ]| to$4$ cherries ~~ currants more refreshing ~~ only objection to$4$ 
306:359,06[I  ]| gathering strawberries the stooping ~~ glaring sun ~~ tired 
306:359,07[I  ]| to$4$ death ~~ could bear$1$ it no$2$ longer ~~ must go and sit in$4$ the 
306:359,08[I  ]| shade." 
306:359,09['  ]| Such, for$4$ half an hour, was the conversation ~~ interrupted 
306:359,10['  ]| only once by$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, who$6#1$ came out$5$, in$4$ her 
306:359,11['  ]| solicitude after$4$ her son-in-law, to$9$ inquire if he were come ~~ 
306:359,12['  ]| and she was a little uneasy. ~~ She had some fears of his 
306:359,13['  ]| horse. 
306:359,14['  ]| Seats tolerably in$4$ the shade were found; and now 
306:359,15['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was obliged to$9$ overhear what $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax 
306:359,16['  ]| were talking of. ~~ A situation, a most desirable 
306:359,17['  ]| situation, was in$4$ question$0$. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton had received notice$0$ 
306:359,18['  ]| of it that$6#2$ morning, and was in$4$ raptures. It was not with 
306:359,19['  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Suckling, it was not with $EM#ZB1$Mrs%*Bragge, but in$4$ felicity 
306:359,20['  ]| and splendour it fell short only of them: it was with 
306:359,21['  ]| a cousin of $EM#ZB1$Mrs%*Bragge, an acquaintance of $EM#V$Mrs%*Suckling, 
306:359,22['  ]| a lady known at Maple*Grove. Delightful, charming, 
306:359,23['  ]| superior, first circles, spheres, lines, ranks, every*thing ~~ 
306:359,24['  ]| and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was wild to$9$ have the offer$0$ closed with 
306:359,25['  ]| immediately. ~~ On$4$ her side$0$, all was warmth, energy, and 
306:359,26['  ]| triumph$0$ ~~ and she positively refused to$9$ take her friend's 
306:359,27['  ]| negative, though $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax continued to$9$ assure her that$3$ 
306:359,28['  ]| she would not at present$0#1$ engage in$4$ any*thing, repeating 
306:359,29['  ]| the same motives which$6#1$ she had been heard to$9$ urge before$5$. 
306:359,30['  ]| ~~ Still$5$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton insisted on$4$ being$1$ authorized to$9$ write an 
306:359,31['  ]| acquiescence by$4$ the morrow's post. ~~ 
306:359,31@a   | How $EM#J$Jane could bear$1$ 
306:359,32@a   | it at all, 
306:359,32['  ]| was astonishing to$4$ $EM#A$Emma. ~~ 
306:359,32@a   | She did look$1$ vexed, 
306:359,33@a   | she did speak pointedly ~~ and at last$0$, with a decision of 
306:359,34@a   | action unusual to$4$ her, proposed a removal. ~~ 
306:359,34[J  ]| "Should not 
306:359,35[J  ]| they walk$1$? ~~ Would not $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley show$1$ them the 
306:359,36[J  ]| gardens ~~ all the gardens? ~~ She wished to$9$ see the whole$2$ 
306:359,37[J  ]| extent." ~~ 
306:359,37@a   | The pertinacity of her friend seemed more than 
306:359,38@a   | she could bear$1$. 
306:360,01['  ]| It was hot; and after$4$ walking some time over the 
306:360,02['  ]| gardens in$4$ a scattered, dispersed way, scarcely any three 
306:360,03['  ]| together, they insensibly followed one another to$4$ the 
306:360,04['  ]| delicious shade of a broad short avenue of limes, which$6#1$ 
306:360,05['  ]| stretching beyond$4$ the garden at an equal$2$ distance$0$ from 
306:360,06['  ]| the river, seemed the finish$0$ of the pleasure grounds. ~~ It led 
306:360,07['  ]| to$4$ nothing; nothing but a view$0$ at the end$0$ over a low 
306:360,08['  ]| stone wall with high pillars, which$6#1$ seemed intended, in$4$ 
306:360,09['  ]| their erection, to$9$ give the appearance of an approach$0$ to$4$ 
306:360,10['  ]| the house, which$6#1$ never had been there. Disputable, however, 
306:360,11['  ]| as might be the taste of such a termination, it was in$4$ 
306:360,12['  ]| itself a charming walk$0$, and the view$0$ which$6#1$ closed it extremely 
306:360,13['  ]| pretty$2$. ~~ The considerable slope, at nearly the foot 
306:360,14['  ]| of which$6#1$ the Abbey stood, gradually acquired a steeper form$0$ 
306:360,15['  ]| beyond$4$ its grounds; and at half a mile distant was a bank 
306:360,16['  ]| of considerable abruptness and grandeur, well$5$ clothed with 
306:360,17['  ]| wood; ~~ and at the bottom of this bank, favourably placed 
306:360,18['  ]| and sheltered, rose$1$ the Abbey-Mill*Farm, with meadows in$4$ 
306:360,19['  ]| front$0$, and the river making a close$2$ and handsome curve 
306:360,20['  ]| around$4$ it. 
306:360,21['  ]| It was a sweet view$0$ ~~ sweet to$4$ the eye and the mind$0$. 
306:360,22['  ]| English verdure, English culture, English comfort$0$, seen 
306:360,23['  ]| under a sun bright, without being$1$ oppressive. 
306:360,24['  ]| In$4$ this walk$0$ $EM#A$Emma and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston found all the others 
306:360,25['  ]| assembled; and towards this view$0$ she immediately perceived 
306:360,26['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#M$Harriet distinct from the rest$0#1$, 
306:360,27['  ]| quietly leading the way. 
306:360,27@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#M$Harriet! ~~ It 
306:360,28@a   | was an odd te^te-a`-te^te; but she was glad to$9$ see it. ~~ 
306:360,29@a   | There had been a time when he would have scorned her 
306:360,30@a   | as a companion, and turned from her with little ceremony. 
306:360,31@a   | Now they seemed in$4$ pleasant conversation. 
306:360,31['  ]| There had been 
306:360,32['  ]| a time also when $EM#A$Emma would have been sorry to$9$ see 
306:360,33['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet in$4$ a spot so$5#1$ favourable for$4$ the Abbey-Mill*Farm; 
306:360,34['  ]| but now she feared it not. 
306:360,34@a   | It might be safely viewed with 
306:360,35@a   | all its appendages of prosperity and beauty, its rich 
306:360,36@a   | pastures, spreading flocks, orchard in$4$ blossom, and light$2$ 
306:360,37@a   | column of smoke ascending. ~~ 
306:360,37['  ]| She joined them at the wall, 
306:360,38['  ]| and found them more engaged in$4$ talking than in$4$ looking 
306:361,01['  ]| around$5$. He was giving $EM#M$Harriet information as to$4$ modes 
306:361,02['  ]| of agriculture, &c% and $EM#A$Emma received a smile$0$ which$6#1$ 
306:361,03['  ]| seemed to$9$ say, 
306:361,03@b   | "These are my own$2$ concerns$0$. I have 
306:361,04@b   | a right$0$ to$9$ talk$1$ on$4$ such subjects, without being$1$ suspected 
306:361,05@b   | of introducing $EM#R$Robert*Martin." ~~ 
306:361,05['  ]| She did not suspect him. 
306:361,06@a   | It was too$5#1$ old a story. ~~ $EM#R$Robert*Martin had probably 
306:361,07@a   | ceased to$9$ think of $EM#M$Harriet. ~~ 
306:361,07['  ]| They took a few turns$0$ together 
306:361,08['  ]| along$4$ the walk$0$. ~~ The shade was most refreshing, and 
306:361,09['  ]| $EM#A$Emma found it the pleasantest part$0$ of the day. 
306:361,10['  ]| The next remove$0$ was to$4$ the house; they must all go in$5$ 
306:361,11['  ]| and eat; ~~ and they were all seated and busy, and still$5$ 
306:361,12['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill did not come. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston looked, and 
306:361,13['  ]| looked in$4$ vain. His father would not own$1$ himself uneasy, 
306:361,14['  ]| and laughed at her fears; but she could not be cured of 
306:361,15['  ]| wishing that$3$ he would part$1$ with his black mare. He had 
306:361,16['  ]| expressed himself as to$4$ coming, with more than common$2$ 
306:361,17['  ]| certainty. 
306:361,17[E  ]| "His aunt was so$5#1$ much better, that$3$ he had not 
306:361,18[E  ]| a doubt$0$ of getting over to$4$ them." ~~ 
306:361,18['  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's state$0$, 
306:361,19['  ]| however, as many were ready to$9$ remind her, was liable to$4$ 
306:361,20['  ]| such sudden$2$ variation as might disappoint her nephew in$4$ 
306:361,21['  ]| the most reasonable dependence ~~ and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was 
306:361,22['  ]| at last$0$ persuaded to$9$ believe, or to$9$ say, that$3$ it must be by$4$ 
306:361,23['  ]| some attack$0$ of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill that$3$ he was prevented 
306:361,24['  ]| coming. ~~ $EM#A$Emma looked at $EM#M$Harriet while$3$ the point$0$ was 
306:361,25['  ]| under consideration; 
306:361,25@a   | she behaved very well$5$, and betrayed 
306:361,26@a   | no$2$ emotion. 
306:361,27['  ]| The cold$2$ repast was over, and the party were to$9$ go out$5$ 
306:361,28['  ]| once more to$9$ see what had not yet been seen, the old 
306:361,29['  ]| Abbey fish-ponds; perhaps get as far as the clover, which$6#1$ 
306:361,30['  ]| was to$9$ be begun cutting on$4$ the morrow, or, at any rate$0$, 
306:361,31['  ]| have the pleasure of being$1$ hot, and growing cool$2$ again. ~~ 
306:361,32['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ had already taken his little round$0$ in$4$ 
306:361,33['  ]| the highest part$0$ of the gardens, where no$2$ damps from the 
306:361,34['  ]| river were imagined even$5$ by$4$ him, stirred no$2$ more; and 
306:361,35['  ]| his daughter resolved to$9$ remain with him, that$3$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
306:361,36['  ]| might be persuaded away by$4$ her husband to$4$ the exercise$0$ 
306:361,37['  ]| and variety which$6#1$ her spirits seemed to$9$ need$1$. 
306:361,38['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had done all in$4$ his power for$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
306:362,01['  ]| entertainment. Books of engravings, drawers of 
306:362,02['  ]| medals, cameos, corals, shells, and every other family 
306:362,03['  ]| collection within his cabinets, had been prepared for$4$ his 
306:362,04['  ]| old friend, to$9$ while$1$ away the morning; and the kindness 
306:362,05['  ]| had perfectly answered. $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had been 
306:362,06['  ]| exceedingly well$5$ amused. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had been showing 
306:362,07['  ]| them all to$4$ him, and now he would show$1$ them all to$4$ 
306:362,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma; ~~ fortunate in$4$ having no$2$ other resemblance to$4$ 
306:362,09['  ]| a child, than in$4$ a total want$0$ of taste for$4$ what he 
306:362,10['  ]| saw, for$3$ he was slow, constant, and methodical. ~~ Before$3$ 
306:362,11['  ]| this second$2$ looking over was begun, however, $EM#A$Emma 
306:362,12['  ]| walked into the hall for$4$ the sake of a few moments' free 
306:362,13['  ]| observation of the entrance and ground-plot of the house ~~ 
306:362,14['  ]| and was hardly there, when $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax appeared, coming 
306:362,15['  ]| quickly in$5$ from the garden, and with a look$0$ of escape$0$. ~~ 
306:362,16['  ]| Little expecting to$9$ meet$1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse so$5#1$ soon, there 
306:362,17['  ]| was a start$0$ at first; but $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse was the very person 
306:362,18['  ]| she was in$4$ quest of. 
306:362,19[J  ]| "Will$1$ you be so$5#1$ kind$2$," 
306:362,19['  ]| said she, 
306:362,19[J  ]| "when I am missed, as 
306:362,20[J  ]| to$9$ say that$3$ I am gone home? ~~ I am going this moment. ~~ 
306:362,21[J  ]| My aunt is not aware how late it is, nor how long we have 
306:362,22[J  ]| been absent ~~ but I am sure we shall be wanted, and I am 
306:362,23[J  ]| determined to$9$ go directly. ~~ I have said nothing about$4$ it 
306:362,24[J  ]| to$4$ any*body. It would only be giving trouble$0$ and distress$0$. 
306:362,25[J  ]| Some are gone to$4$ the ponds, and some to$4$ the lime*walk. 
306:362,26[J  ]| Till they all come in$5$ I shall not be missed; and when they 
306:362,27[J  ]| do, will$1$ you have the goodness to$9$ say that$3$ I am gone?" 
306:362,28[A  ]| "Certainly, if you wish$1$ it; ~~ but you are not going to$9$ 
306:362,29[A  ]| walk$1$ to$4$ Highbury alone?" 
306:362,30[J  ]| "Yes ~~ what should hurt me? ~~ I walk$1$ fast. I shall be 
306:362,31[J  ]| at home in$4$ twenty minutes." 
306:362,32[A  ]| "But it is too$5#1$ far, indeed it is, to$9$ be walking quite 
306:362,33[A  ]| alone. Let my father's servant go with you. ~~ Let me order 
306:362,34[A  ]| the carriage. It can be round$5$ in$4$ five minutes." 
306:362,35[J  ]| "Thank you, thank you ~~ but on$4$ no$2$ account$0$. ~~ I would 
306:362,36[J  ]| rather walk$1$. ~~ And for$4$ \me\ to$9$ be afraid of walking alone! ~~ 
306:362,37[J  ]| I, who$6#1$ may$1$ so$5#1$ soon have to$9$ guard$1$ others!" 
306:362,38['  ]| She spoke with great agitation; and $EM#A$Emma very 
306:363,01['  ]| feelingly replied, 
306:363,01[A  ]| "That$6#2$ can be no$2$ reason$0$ for$4$ your being$1$ 
306:363,02[A  ]| exposed to$4$ danger now. I must order the carriage. 
306:363,03[A  ]| The heat$0$ even$5$ would be danger. ~~ You are fatigued 
306:363,04[A  ]| already." 
306:363,05[J  ]| "I am" ~~ 
306:363,05['  ]| she answered ~~ 
306:363,05[J  ]| "I am fatigued; but it is not 
306:363,06[J  ]| the sort of fatigue$0$ ~~ quick$2$ walking will$1$ refresh me. ~~ 
$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
306:363,07[J  ]| we all know at times what it is to$9$ be wearied 
306:363,08[J  ]| in$4$ spirits. Mine$6$, I confess, are exhausted. The greatest 
306:363,09[J  ]| kindness you can show$1$ me, will$1$ be to$9$ let me have my own$2$ 
306:363,10[J  ]| way, and only say that$3$ I am gone when it is necessary." 
306:363,11['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had not another word to$9$ oppose. She saw it all; 
306:363,12['  ]| and entering into her feelings, promoted her quitting the 
306:363,13['  ]| house immediately, and watched her safely off with the 
306:363,14['  ]| zeal of a friend. 
306:363,14@a   | Her parting look$0$ was grateful ~~ and her 
306:363,15@a   | parting words, 
306:363,15[J  ]| "Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, the comfort$0$ of 
306:363,16[J  ]| being$1$ sometimes alone!" ~~ 
306:363,16@a   | seemed to$9$ burst$1$ from an over-charged 
306:363,17@a   | heart, and to$9$ describe somewhat of the continual 
306:363,18@a   | endurance to$9$ be practised by$4$ her, even$5$ towards some of 
306:363,19@a   | those who$6#1$ loved her best. 
306:363,20[A  ]| "Such a home, indeed! such an aunt!" 
306:363,20['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
306:363,21['  ]| as she turned back$5$ into the hall again. 
306:363,21[A  ]| "I do pity$1$ you. 
306:363,22[A  ]| And the more sensibility you betray of their just$2$ horrors, 
306:363,23[A  ]| the more I shall like$1$ you." 
306:363,24['  ]| $EM#J$Jane had not been gone a quarter$0#1$ of an hour, and they 
306:363,25['  ]| had only accomplished some views of St%*Mark's*Place, 
306:363,26['  ]| Venice, when $EM#E$Frank*Churchill entered the room. $EM#A$Emma 
306:363,27['  ]| had not been thinking of him, she had forgotten to$9$ think 
306:363,28['  ]| of him ~~ but she was very glad to$9$ see him. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
306:363,29['  ]| would be at ease$0$. The black mare was blameless; \they\ 
306:363,30['  ]| were right$2#1$ who$6#1$ had named $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill as the cause. 
306:363,31@e   | He had been detained by$4$ a temporary increase$0$ of illness 
306:363,32@e   | in$4$ her; a nervous seizure, which$6#1$ had lasted some hours ~~ 
306:363,33@e   | and he had quite given up$5$ every thought$0$ of coming, till 
306:363,34@e   | very late; ~~ and had he known how hot a ride$0$ he should 
306:363,35@e   | have, and how late, with all his hurry$0$, he must be, he 
306:363,36@e   | believed he should not have come at all. The heat$0$ was 
306:363,37@e   | excessive; he had never suffered any*thing like$4$ it ~~ almost 
306:363,38@e   | wished he had staid at home ~~ nothing killed him like$4$ 
306:364,01@e   | heat$0$ ~~ he could bear$1$ any degree of cold$0$, &c% but heat$0$ was 
306:364,02@e   | intolerable ~~ 
306:364,02['  ]| and he sat down$5$, at the greatest possible 
306:364,03['  ]| distance$0$ from the slight$2$ remains$0$ of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's fire$0$, 
306:364,04['  ]| looking very deplorable. 
306:364,05[A  ]| "You will$1$ soon be cooler, if you sit still$2$," 
306:364,05['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
306:364,06[E  ]| "As soon as I am cooler I shall go back$5$ again. I could 
306:364,07[E  ]| very ill be spared ~~ but such a point$0$ had been made of my 
306:364,08[E  ]| coming! You will$1$ all be going soon I suppose; the whole$2$ 
306:364,09[E  ]| party breaking up$5$. I met \one\ as I came ~~ Madness in$4$ such 
306:364,10[E  ]| weather! ~~ absolute madness!" 
306:364,11['  ]| $EM#A$Emma listened, and looked, and soon perceived that$3$ 
306:364,12@a   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's state$0$ might be best defined by$4$ the 
306:364,13@a   | expressive phrase of being$1$ out$5$ of humour. Some people 
306:364,14@a   | were always cross$2$ when they were hot. Such might be 
306:364,15@a   | his constitution; 
306:364,15['  ]| and as she knew that$3$ eating and drinking 
306:364,16['  ]| were often the cure$0$ of such incidental complaints, she 
306:364,17['  ]| recommended his taking some refreshment; he would 
306:364,18['  ]| find abundance of every*thing in$4$ the dining-room ~~ and 
306:364,19['  ]| she humanely pointed out$5$ the door. 
306:364,20[E  ]| "No$7$ ~~ he should not eat. He was not hungry; it would 
306:364,21[E  ]| only make$1$ him hotter." 
306:364,21['  ]| In$4$ two minutes, however, he 
306:364,22['  ]| relented in$4$ his own$2$ favour$0$; and muttering something 
306:364,23['  ]| about$4$ spruce*beer, walked off. $EM#A$Emma returned all her 
306:364,24['  ]| attention to$4$ her father, saying in$4$ secret$0$ ~~ 
306:364,25[A  ]| "I am glad I have done being$1$ in$4$ love$0$ with him. I should 
306:364,26[A  ]| not like$1$ a man who$6#1$ is so$5#1$ soon discomposed by$4$ a hot 
306:364,27[A  ]| morning. $EM#M$Harriet's sweet easy temper will$1$ not mind$1$ it." 
306:364,28['  ]| He was gone long enough to$9$ have had a very comfortable 
306:364,29['  ]| meal, and came back$5$ all the better ~~ grown quite cool$2$ ~~ 
306:364,30['  ]| and, with good manners, like$4$ himself ~~ able to$9$ draw a chair 
306:364,31['  ]| close$5$ to$4$ them, take an interest$0$ in$4$ their employment; and 
306:364,32['  ]| regret$1$, in$4$ a reasonable way, that$3$ he should be so$5#1$ late. He 
306:364,33['  ]| was not in$4$ his best spirits, but seemed trying to$9$ improve 
306:364,34['  ]| them; and, at last$0$, made himself talk$1$ nonsense very 
306:364,35['  ]| agreeably. They were looking over views of Swisserland. 
306:364,36[E  ]| "As soon as my aunt gets well$5$, I shall go abroad," 
306:364,36['  ]| said 
306:364,37['  ]| he. 
306:364,37[E  ]| "I shall never be easy till I have seen some of these 
306:364,38[E  ]| places$0$. You will$1$ have my sketches, some time or other, 
306:365,01[E  ]| to$9$ look$1$ at ~~ or my tour to$9$ read ~~ or my poem. I shall do 
306:365,02[E  ]| something to$9$ expose myself." 
306:365,03[A  ]| "That$6#2$ may$1$ be ~~ but not by$4$ sketches in$4$ Swisserland. 
306:365,04[A  ]| You will$1$ never go to$4$ Swisserland. Your uncle and aunt 
306:365,05[A  ]| will$1$ never allow you to$9$ leave$1$ England." 
306:365,06[E  ]| "They may$1$ be induced to$9$ go too$5#2$. A warm$2$ climate may$1$ 
306:365,07[E  ]| be prescribed for$4$ her. I have more than half an expectation 
306:365,08[E  ]| of our all going abroad. I assure you I have. I feel 
306:365,09[E  ]| a strong persuasion, this morning, that$3$ I shall soon be 
306:365,10[E  ]| abroad. I ought to$9$ travel. I am tired of doing nothing. 
306:365,11[E  ]| I want$1$ a change$0$. I am serious$2$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, whatever 
306:365,12[E  ]| your penetrating eyes may$1$ fancy$1$ ~~ I am sick of 
306:365,13[E  ]| England ~~ and would leave$1$ it to-morrow, if I could." 
306:365,14[A  ]| "You are sick of prosperity and indulgence. Cannot 
306:365,15[A  ]| you invent a few hardships for$4$ yourself, and be contented 
306:365,16[A  ]| to$9$ stay$1$?" 
306:365,17[E  ]| "\I\ sick of prosperity and indulgence! ~~ You are quite 
306:365,18[E  ]| mistaken. I do not look$1$ upon$4$ myself as either prosperous 
306:365,19[E  ]| or indulged. I am thwarted in$4$ every*thing material$2$. I do 
306:365,20[E  ]| not consider myself at all a fortunate person." 
306:365,21[A  ]| "You are not quite so$5#1$ miserable, though, as when you 
306:365,22[A  ]| first came. Go and eat and drink a little more, and you 
306:365,23[A  ]| will$1$ do very well$5$. Another slice of cold$2$ meat, another 
306:365,24[A  ]| draught of Madeira and water, will$1$ make$1$ you nearly on$4$ 
306:365,25[A  ]| a par with the rest$0#1$ of us." 
306:365,26[E  ]| "No$7$ ~~ I shall not stir. I shall sit by$4$ you. You are my 
306:365,27[E  ]| best cure$0$." 
306:365,28[A  ]| "We are going to$4$ Box*Hill to-morrow; ~~ you will$1$ join 
306:365,29[A  ]| us. It is not Swisserland, but it will$1$ be something for$4$ 
306:365,30[A  ]| a young man so$5#1$ much in$4$ want$0$ of a change$0$. You will$1$ stay$1$, 
306:365,31[A  ]| and go with us?" 
306:365,32[E  ]| "No$7$, certainly not; I shall go home in$4$ the cool$0$ of the 
306:365,33[E  ]| evening." 
306:365,34[A  ]| "But you may$1$ come again in$4$ the cool$0$ of to-morrow 
306:365,35[A  ]| morning." 
306:365,36[E  ]| "No$7$ ~~ It will$1$ not be worth*while. If I come, I shall be 
306:365,37[E  ]| cross$2$." 
306:365,38[A  ]| "Then pray stay$1$ at Richmond." 
306:366,01[E  ]| "But if I do, I shall be crosser still$5$. I can never bear$1$ 
306:366,02[E  ]| to$9$ think of you all there without me." 
306:366,03[A  ]| "These are difficulties which$6#1$ you must settle for$4$ 
306:366,04[A  ]| yourself. Choose your own$2$ degree of crossness. I shall 
306:366,05[A  ]| press$1$ you no$2$ more." 
306:366,06['  ]| The rest$0#1$ of the party were now returning, and all were 
306:366,07['  ]| soon collected. With some there was great joy at the 
306:366,08['  ]| sight of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill; others took it very composedly; 
306:366,09['  ]| but there was a very general$2$ distress$0$ and disturbance on$4$ 
306:366,10['  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's disappearance being$1$ explained. That$3$ it was 
306:366,11['  ]| time for$4$ every*body to$9$ go, concluded the subject$0$; and 
306:366,12['  ]| with a short final arrangement for$4$ the next day's scheme$0$, 
306:366,13['  ]| they parted. $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's little inclination to$9$ exclude 
306:366,14['  ]| himself increased so$5#1$ much, that$3$ his last$2$ words to$4$ $EM#A$Emma 
306:366,15['  ]| were, 
306:366,16[E  ]| "Well$7$; ~~ if \you\ wish$1$ me to$9$ stay$1$, and join the party, 
306:366,17[E  ]| I will$1$." 
306:366,18['  ]| She smiled her acceptance; and nothing less than 
306:366,19['  ]| a summons from Richmond was to$9$ take him back$5$ before$4$ 
306:366,20['  ]| the following evening. 
307:367,01['  ]| They had a very fine day for$4$ Box*Hill; and all the 
307:367,02['  ]| other outward circumstances of arrangement, accommodation, 
307:367,03['  ]| and punctuality, were in$4$ favour$0$ of a pleasant party. 
307:367,04['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston directed the whole$0$, officiating safely between 
307:367,05['  ]| Hartfield and the vicarage, and every*body was in$4$ good 
307:367,06['  ]| time. $EM#A$Emma and $EM#M$Harriet went together; $EM#D$Miss*Bates and 
307:367,07['  ]| her niece, with the $EM#H1$Eltons; the gentlemen on$4$ horseback. 
307:367,08['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston remained with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse. Nothing 
307:367,09['  ]| was wanting but to$9$ be happy when they got there. Seven 
307:367,10['  ]| miles were travelled in$4$ expectation of enjoyment, and 
307:367,11['  ]| every*body had a burst$0$ of admiration on$4$ first arriving; 
307:367,12['  ]| but in$4$ the general$2$ amount of the day there was deficiency. 
307:367,13['  ]| There was a languor, a want$0$ of spirits, a want$0$ of union, 
307:367,14['  ]| which$6#1$ could not be got over. They separated too$5#1$ much 
307:367,15['  ]| into parties. The $EM#H1$Eltons walked together; $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
307:367,16['  ]| took charge$0$ of $EM#D$Miss*Bates and $EM#J$Jane; and $EM#A$Emma and 
307:367,17['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet belonged to$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. And $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
307:367,18['  ]| tried, in$4$ vain, to$9$ make$1$ them harmonize better. It seemed 
307:367,19['  ]| at first an accidental division, but it never materially 
307:367,20['  ]| varied. $EM#H$Mr% and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, indeed, showed no$2$ unwillingness 
307:367,21['  ]| to$9$ mix, and be as agreeable as they could: but during 
307:367,22['  ]| the two whole$2$ hours that$6#1$ were spent on$4$ the hill, there 
307:367,23['  ]| seemed a principle of separation, between the other 
307:367,24['  ]| parties, too$5#1$ strong for$4$ any fine prospects, or any cold$2$ 
307:367,25['  ]| collation, or any cheerful $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, to$9$ remove$1$. 
307:367,26['  ]| At first it was downright dulness to$4$ $EM#A$Emma. 
307:367,26@a   | She had 
307:367,27@a   | never seen $EM#E$Frank*Churchill so$5#1$ silent and stupid. He said 
307:367,28@a   | nothing worth hearing ~~ looked without seeing ~~ admired 
307:367,29@a   | without intelligence ~~ listened without knowing what she 
307:367,30@a   | said. While$3$ he was so$5#1$ dull, it was no$2$ wonder$0$ that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet 
307:367,31@a   | should be dull likewise, and they were both insufferable. 
307:367,32@a   | When they all sat down$5$ it was better; to$4$ her taste 
307:367,33@a   | a great deal$0$ better, for$3$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill grew talkative 
307:368,01@a   | and gay, making her his first object$0$. Every distinguishing 
307:368,02@a   | attention that$6#1$ could be paid, was paid to$4$ her. To$9$ amuse 
307:368,03@a   | her, and be agreeable in$4$ her eyes, seemed all that$6#1$ he cared 
307:368,04@a   | for$4$ ~~ 
307:368,04['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma, glad to$9$ be enlivened, not sorry to$9$ be 
307:368,05['  ]| flattered, was gay and easy too$5#2$, and gave him all the 
307:368,06['  ]| friendly encouragement, the admission to$9$ be gallant, 
307:368,07['  ]| which$6#1$ she had ever given in$4$ the first and most animating 
307:368,08['  ]| period of their acquaintance; but which$6#1$ now, in$4$ her own$2$ 
307:368,09['  ]| estimation, meant nothing, though in$4$ the judgment of 
307:368,10['  ]| most people looking on$5$ it must have had such an appearance 
307:368,11['  ]| as no$2$ English word but flirtation could very well$5$ 
307:368,12['  ]| describe. 
307:368,12@a   | "$EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
307:368,13@a   | flirted together excessively." They were laying themselves 
307:368,14@a   | open$2$ to$4$ that$6#2$ very phrase ~~ and to$4$ having it sent off in$4$ 
307:368,15@a   | a letter to$4$ Maple*Grove by$4$ one lady, to$4$ Ireland by$4$ another. 
307:368,16['  ]| Not that$3$ $EM#A$Emma was gay and thoughtless from any real 
307:368,17['  ]| felicity; it was rather because she felt less happy than 
307:368,18['  ]| she had expected. She laughed because she was disappointed; 
307:368,19['  ]| and though she liked him for$4$ his attentions, and 
307:368,20['  ]| thought$1$ them all, whether in$4$ friendship, admiration, or 
307:368,21['  ]| playfulness, extremely judicious, they were not winning 
307:368,22['  ]| back$5$ her heart. She still$5$ intended him for$4$ her friend. 
307:368,23[E  ]| "How much I am obliged to$4$ you," 
307:368,23['  ]| said he, 
307:368,23[E  ]| "for$4$ telling 
307:368,24[E  ]| me to$9$ come to*day! ~~ If it had not been for$4$ you, I should 
307:368,25[E  ]| certainly have lost all the happiness of this party. I had 
307:368,26[E  ]| quite determined to$9$ go away again." 
307:368,27[A  ]| "Yes, you were very cross$2$; and I do not know what 
307:368,28[A  ]| about$4$, except that$3$ you were too$5#1$ late for$4$ the best strawberries. 
307:368,29[A  ]| I was a kinder friend than you deserved. But 
307:368,30[A  ]| you were humble$2$. You begged hard to$9$ be commanded 
307:368,31[A  ]| to$9$ come." 
307:368,32[E  ]| "Don't say I was cross$2$. I was fatigued. The heat$0$ 
307:368,33[E  ]| overcame me." 
307:368,34[A  ]| "It is hotter to-day." 
307:368,35[E  ]| "Not to$4$ my feelings. I am perfectly comfortable 
307:368,36[E  ]| to-day." 
307:368,37[A  ]| "You are comfortable because you are under command$0$." 
307:368,38[E  ]| "Your command$0$? ~~ Yes." 
307:369,01[A  ]| "Perhaps I intended you to$9$ say so$5#2$, but I meant self-command. 
307:369,02[A  ]| You had, somehow or other, broken bounds 
307:369,03[A  ]| yesterday, and run$1$ away from your own$2$ management; 
307:369,04[A  ]| but to-day you are got back$5$ again ~~ and as I cannot be 
307:369,05[A  ]| always with you, it is best to$9$ believe your temper under 
307:369,06[A  ]| your own$2$ command$0$ rather than mine$6$." 
307:369,07[E  ]| "It comes to$4$ the same thing. I can have no$2$ self-command 
307:369,08[E  ]| without a motive. You order me, whether you 
307:369,09[E  ]| speak or not. And you can be always with me. You are 
307:369,10[E  ]| always with me." 
307:369,11[A  ]| "Dating from three o'clock yesterday. My perpetual 
307:369,12[A  ]| influence$0$ could not begin earlier, or you would not have 
307:369,13[A  ]| been so$5#1$ much out$5$ of humour before$5$." 
307:369,14[E  ]| "Three o'clock yesterday! That$6#2$ is your date. I 
307:369,15[E  ]| thought$1$ I had seen you first in$4$ February." 
307:369,16[A  ]| "Your gallantry is really unanswerable. But 
307:369,16['  ]| (lowering 
307:369,17['  ]| her voice) ~~ 
307:369,17[A  ]| nobody speaks except ourselves, and it is 
307:369,18[A  ]| rather too$5#1$ much to$9$ be talking nonsense for$4$ the entertainment 
307:369,19[A  ]| of seven silent people." 
307:369,20[E  ]| "I say nothing of which$6#1$ I am ashamed," 
307:369,20['  ]| replied he, 
307:369,21['  ]| with lively impudence. 
307:369,21[E  ]| "I saw you first in$4$ February. 
307:369,22[E  ]| Let every*body on$4$ the Hill hear me if they can. Let my 
307:369,23[E  ]| accents swell to$4$ Mickleham on$4$ one side$0$, and Dorking on$4$ 
307:369,24[E  ]| the other. I saw you first in$4$ February." 
307:369,24['  ]| And then 
307:369,25['  ]| whispering ~~ 
307:369,25[E  ]| "Our companions are excessively stupid. 
307:369,26[E  ]| What shall we do to$9$ rouse them? Any nonsense will$1$ 
307:369,27[E  ]| serve. They \shall\ talk$1$. Ladies and gentlemen, I am 
307:369,28[E  ]| ordered by$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse (who$6#1$, wherever she is, presides,) 
307:369,29[E  ]| to$9$ say, that$3$ she desires to$9$ know what you are all 
307:369,30[E  ]| thinking of." 
307:369,31['  ]| Some laughed, and answered good-humouredly. $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
307:369,32['  ]| said a great deal$0$; $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton swelled at the idea of 
307:369,33['  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's presiding; $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's answer$0$ 
307:369,34['  ]| was the most distinct. 
307:369,35[B  ]| "Is $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse sure that$3$ she would like$1$ to$9$ hear 
307:369,36[B  ]| what we are all thinking of?" 
307:369,37[A  ]| "Oh! no$7$, no$7$" ~~ 
307:369,37['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, laughing as carelessly 
307:369,38['  ]| as she could ~~ 
307:369,38[A  ]| "Upon$4$ no$2$ account$0$ in$4$ the world. It is the 
307:370,01[A  ]| very last$2$ thing I would stand$1$ the brunt of just$5$ now. Let 
307:370,02[A  ]| me hear any*thing rather than what you are all thinking of. 
307:370,03[A  ]| I will$1$ not say quite all. There are one or two, perhaps, 
307:370,04['  ]| (glancing at $EM#N$Mr%*Weston and $EM#M$Harriet,) 
307:370,04[A  ]| whose$6#1$ thoughts 
307:370,05[A  ]| I might not be afraid of knowing." 
307:370,06[I  ]| "It is a sort of thing," 
307:370,06['  ]| cried $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton emphatically, 
307:370,07[I  ]| "which$6#1$ \I\ should not have thought$1$ myself privileged to$9$ 
307:370,08[I  ]| inquire into. Though, perhaps, as the \Chaperon\ of the 
307:370,09[I  ]| party ~~ \I\ never was in$4$ any circle ~~ exploring parties ~~ 
307:370,10[I  ]| young ladies ~~ married women ~~" 
307:370,11['  ]| Her mutterings were chiefly to$4$ her husband; and he 
307:370,12['  ]| murmured, in$4$ reply$0$, 
307:370,13[H  ]| "Very true, my love$0$, very true. Exactly so$5#2$, indeed ~~ 
307:370,14[H  ]| quite unheard of ~~ but some ladies say any*thing. Better 
307:370,15[H  ]| pass$1$ it off as a joke. Every*body knows what is due$2$ to$4$ 
307:370,16[H  ]| \you\." 
307:370,17[E  ]| "It will$1$ not do," 
307:370,17['  ]| whispered $EM#E$Frank to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, 
307:370,17[E  ]| "they 
307:370,18[E  ]| are most of them affronted. I will$1$ attack$1$ them with more 
307:370,19[E  ]| address$0$. Ladies and gentlemen ~~ I am ordered by$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
307:370,20[E  ]| to$9$ say, that$3$ she waves her right$0$ of knowing 
307:370,21[E  ]| exactly what you may$1$ all be thinking of, and only requires 
307:370,22[E  ]| something very entertaining from each of you, in$4$ a general$2$ 
307:370,23[E  ]| way. Here are seven of you, besides myself, (who$6#1$, she is 
307:370,24[E  ]| pleased to$9$ say, am very entertaining already,) and she 
307:370,25[E  ]| only demands$1$ from each of you either one thing very 
307:370,26[E  ]| clever, be it prose or verse, original or repeated ~~ or two 
307:370,27[E  ]| things moderately clever ~~ or three things very dull indeed, 
307:370,28[E  ]| and she engages to$9$ laugh$1$ heartily at them all." 
307:370,29[D  ]| "Oh! very well$5$," 
307:370,29['  ]| exclaimed $EM#D$Miss*Bates, 
307:370,29[D  ]| "then I need$1$ 
307:370,30[D  ]| not be uneasy. 
307:370,30@e   | ""Three things very dull indeed."" 
307:370,30[D  ]| That$6#2$ 
307:370,31[D  ]| will$1$ just$5$ do for$4$ me, you know. I shall be sure to$9$ say three 
307:370,32[D  ]| dull things as soon as ever I open$1$ my mouth, shan't I? ~~ 
307:370,33['  ]| (looking round$5$ with the most good-humoured dependence 
307:370,34['  ]| on$4$ every*body's assent) ~~ 
307:370,34[D  ]| Do not you all think I shall?" 
307:370,35['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not resist. 
307:370,36[A  ]| "Ah! ma'am, but there may$1$ be a difficulty. Pardon$1$ 
307:370,37[A  ]| me ~~ but you will$1$ be limited as to$4$ number ~~ only three at 
307:370,38[A  ]| once." 
307:371,01['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates, deceived by$4$ the mock ceremony of her 
307:371,02['  ]| manner, did not immediately catch$1$ her meaning; but, 
307:371,03['  ]| when it burst$1$ on$4$ her, it could not anger$1$, though a slight$2$ 
307:371,04['  ]| blush$0$ showed that$3$ it could pain$1$ her. 
307:371,05[D  ]| "Ah! ~~ well$7$ ~~ to$9$ be sure. Yes, I see what she means$1$, 
307:371,06['  ]| (turning to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley,) 
307:371,06[D  ]| and I will$1$ try to$9$ hold$1$ my 
307:371,07[D  ]| tongue. I must make$1$ myself very disagreeable, or she 
307:371,08[D  ]| would not have said such a thing to$4$ an old friend." 
307:371,09[N  ]| "I like$1$ your plan," 
307:371,09['  ]| cried $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
307:371,09[N  ]| "Agreed, 
307:371,10[N  ]| agreed. I will$1$ do my best. I am making a conundrum. 
307:371,11[N  ]| How will$1$ a conundrum reckon?" 
307:371,12[E  ]| "Low, I am afraid, sir, very low," 
307:371,12['  ]| answered his son; ~~ 
307:371,13[E  ]| "but we shall be indulgent ~~ especially to$4$ any*one who$6#1$ 
307:371,14[E  ]| leads the way." 
307:371,15[A  ]| "No$7$, no$7$," 
307:371,15['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
307:371,15[A  ]| "it will$1$ not reckon low. A 
307:371,16[A  ]| conundrum of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's shall clear$1$ him and his next 
307:371,17[A  ]| neighbour. Come, sir, pray let me hear it." 
307:371,18[N  ]| "I doubt$1$ it's being$1$ very clever myself," 
307:371,18['  ]| said $EM#N$Mr%*Weston. 
307:371,19[N  ]| "It is too$5#1$ much a matter of fact, but here it is. ~~ What 
307:371,20[N  ]| two letters of the alphabet are there, that$6#1$ express$1$ 
307:371,21[N  ]| perfection?" 
307:371,22[A  ]| "What two letters! ~~ express$1$ perfection! I am sure 
307:371,23[A  ]| I do not know." 
307:371,24[N  ]| "Ah! you will$1$ never guess$1$. You, 
307:371,24['  ]| (to$4$ $EM#A$Emma), 
307:371,24[N  ]| I am 
307:371,25[N  ]| certain, will$1$ never guess$1$. ~~ I will$1$ tell you. ~~ M% and A% ~~ 
307:371,26[N  ]| $EM#A$Em-ma. ~~ Do you understand?" 
307:371,27['  ]| Understanding and gratification came together. It 
307:371,28['  ]| might be a very indifferent piece of wit; but $EM#A$Emma found 
307:371,29['  ]| a great deal$0$ to$9$ laugh$1$ at and enjoy in$4$ it ~~ and so$3$ did $EM#E$Frank 
307:371,30['  ]| and $EM#M$Harriet. ~~ It did not seem to$9$ touch$1$ the rest$0#1$ of the 
307:371,31['  ]| party equally; some looked very stupid about$4$ it, and 
307:371,32['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley gravely said, 
307:371,33[B  ]| "This explains the sort of clever thing that$6#1$ is wanted, 
307:371,34[B  ]| and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston has done very well$5$ for$4$ himself; but he 
307:371,35[B  ]| must have knocked up$5$ every*body else. \Perfection\ should 
307:371,36[B  ]| not have come quite so$5#1$ soon." 
307:371,37[I  ]| "Oh! for$4$ myself, I protest I must be excused," 
307:371,37['  ]| said 
307:371,38['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton; 
307:371,38[I  ]| "\I\ really cannot attempt$1$ ~~ I am not at all 
307:372,01[I  ]| fond of the sort of thing. I had an acrostic once sent to$4$ 
307:372,02[I  ]| me upon$4$ my own$2$ name$0$, which$6#1$ I was not at all pleased 
307:372,03[I  ]| with. I knew who$6#1$ it came from. An abominable puppy! ~~ 
307:372,04[I  ]| You know who$6#1$ I mean$1$ ~~ 
307:372,04['  ]| (nodding to$4$ her husband). 
307:372,04[I  ]| These 
307:372,05[I  ]| kind$0$ of things are very well$5$ at Christmas, when one is 
307:372,06[I  ]| sitting round$4$ the fire$0$; but quite out$5$ of place$0$, in$4$ my 
307:372,07[I  ]| opinion, when one is exploring about$4$ the country in$4$ summer. 
307:372,08[I  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse must excuse$1$ me. I am not one of those 
307:372,09[I  ]| who$6#1$ have witty things at every*body's service. I do not 
307:372,10[I  ]| pretend to$9$ be a wit. I have a great deal$0$ of vivacity in$4$ my 
307:372,11[I  ]| own$2$ way, but I really must be allowed to$9$ judge$1$ when to$9$ 
307:372,12[I  ]| speak and when to$9$ hold$1$ my tongue. Pass$1$ us, if you please, 
307:372,13[I  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Churchill. Pass$1$ $EM#H$Mr%*E%, $EM#B$Knightley, $EM#J$Jane and myself. 
307:372,14[I  ]| We have nothing clever to$9$ say ~~ not one of us." 
307:372,15[H  ]| "Yes, yes, pray pass$1$ \me\," 
307:372,15['  ]| added her husband, with 
307:372,16['  ]| a sort of sneering consciousness; 
307:372,16[H  ]| "\I\ have nothing to$9$ say 
307:372,17[H  ]| that$6#1$ can entertain $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, or any other young 
307:372,18[H  ]| lady. An old married man ~~ quite good for$4$ nothing. 
307:372,19[H  ]| Shall we walk$1$, $EM#I$Augusta?" 
307:372,20[I  ]| "With all my heart. I am really tired of exploring so$5#1$ 
307:372,21[I  ]| long on$4$ one spot. Come, $EM#J$Jane, take my other arm$0$." 
307:372,22['  ]| $EM#J$Jane declined it, however, and the husband and wife 
307:372,23['  ]| walked off. 
307:372,23[E  ]| "Happy couple!" 
307:372,23['  ]| said $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, as 
307:372,24['  ]| soon as they were out$5$ of hearing: ~~ 
307:372,24[E  ]| "How well$5$ they suit$1$ 
307:372,25[E  ]| one another! ~~ Very lucky ~~ marrying as they did, upon$4$ 
307:372,26[E  ]| an acquaintance formed only in$4$ a public$2$ place$0$! ~~ They 
307:372,27[E  ]| only knew each other, I think, a few weeks in$4$ Bath$0#1$! 
307:372,28[E  ]| Peculiarly lucky! ~~ for$3$ as to$4$ any real knowledge of a person's 
307:372,29[E  ]| disposition that$6#1$ Bath$0#1$, or any public$2$ place$0$, can give ~~ 
307:372,30[E  ]| it is all nothing; there can be no$2$ knowledge. It is only 
307:372,31[E  ]| by$4$ seeing women in$4$ their own$2$ homes, among their own$2$ 
307:372,32[E  ]| set$0$, just$5$ as they always are, that$3$ you can form$1$ any just$2$ 
307:372,33[E  ]| judgment. Short of that$6#2$, it is all guess$0$ and luck ~~ and 
307:372,34[E  ]| will$1$ generally be ill-luck. How many a man has committed 
307:372,35[E  ]| himself on$4$ a short acquaintance, and rued it all the rest$0#1$ 
307:372,36[E  ]| of his life!" 
307:372,37['  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, who$6#1$ had seldom spoken before$5$, except 
307:372,38['  ]| among her own$2$ confederates, spoke now. 
307:373,01[J  ]| "Such things do occur, undoubtedly." ~~ 
307:373,01['  ]| She was stopped 
307:373,02['  ]| by$4$ a cough. $EM#E$Frank*Churchill turned towards her to$9$ 
307:373,03['  ]| listen. 
307:373,04[E  ]| "You were speaking," 
307:373,04['  ]| said he, gravely. She recovered 
307:373,05['  ]| her voice. 
307:373,06[J  ]| "I was only going to$9$ observe, that$3$ though such unfortunate 
307:373,07[J  ]| circumstances do sometimes occur both to$4$ men 
307:373,08[J  ]| and women, I cannot imagine them to$9$ be very frequent. 
307:373,09[J  ]| A hasty and imprudent attachment may$1$ arise ~~ but there 
307:373,10[J  ]| is generally time to$9$ recover from it afterwards. I would 
307:373,11[J  ]| be understood to$9$ mean$1$, that$3$ it can be only weak, irresolute 
307:373,12[J  ]| characters, (whose$6#1$ happiness must be always at the mercy 
307:373,13[J  ]| of chance$0$,) who$6#1$ will$1$ suffer an unfortunate acquaintance 
307:373,14[J  ]| to$9$ be an inconvenience, an oppression for*ever." 
307:373,15['  ]| He made no$2$ answer$0$; merely looked, and bowed in$4$ 
307:373,16['  ]| submission; and soon afterwards said, in$4$ a lively tone, 
307:373,17[E  ]| "Well$7$, I have so$5#1$ little confidence in$4$ my own$2$ judgment, 
307:373,18[E  ]| that$3$ whenever I marry, I hope$1$ somebody will$1$ choose my 
307:373,19[E  ]| wife for$4$ me. Will$1$ you? 
307:373,19['  ]| (turning to$4$ $EM#A$Emma.) 
307:373,19[E  ]| Will$1$ you 
307:373,20[E  ]| choose a wife for$4$ me? ~~ I am sure I should like$1$ any*body 
307:373,21[E  ]| fixed on$5$ by$4$ you. You provide for$4$ the family, you know, 
307:373,22['  ]| (with a smile$0$ at his father). 
307:373,22[E  ]| Find somebody for$4$ me. I am 
307:373,23[E  ]| in$4$ no$2$ hurry$0$. Adopt her, educate her." 
307:373,24[A  ]| "And make$1$ her like$4$ myself." 
307:373,25[E  ]| "By$4$ all means$0$, if you can." 
307:373,26[A  ]| "Very well$5$. I undertake the commission. You shall 
307:373,27[A  ]| have a charming wife." 
307:373,28[E  ]| "She must be very lively, and have hazle eyes. I care$1$ 
307:373,29[E  ]| for$4$ nothing else. I shall go abroad for$4$ a couple of years ~~ 
307:373,30[E  ]| and when I return$1$, I shall come to$4$ you for$4$ my wife. 
307:373,31[E  ]| Remember." 
307:373,32['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was in$4$ no$2$ danger of forgetting. It was a commission 
307:373,33['  ]| to$9$ touch$1$ every favourite$2$ feeling. 
307:373,33@a   | Would not 
307:373,34@a   | $EM#M$Harriet be the very creature described? ~~ Hazle eyes 
307:373,35@a   | excepted, two years more might make$1$ her all that$6#1$ he 
307:373,36@a   | wished. He might even$5$ have $EM#M$Harriet in$4$ his thoughts at 
307:373,37@a   | the moment; who$6#2$ could say? Referring the education 
307:373,38@a   | to$4$ her seemed to$9$ imply it. 
307:374,01[J  ]| "Now, ma'am," 
307:374,01['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane to$4$ her aunt, 
307:374,01[J  ]| "shall we join 
307:374,02[J  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton?" 
307:374,03[D  ]| "If you please, my dear$2#1$. With all my heart. I am 
307:374,04[D  ]| quite ready. I was ready to$9$ have gone with her, but this 
307:374,05[D  ]| will$1$ do just$5$ as well$5$. We shall soon overtake her. There 
307:374,06[D  ]| she is ~~ no$7$, that's somebody else. That's one of the ladies 
307:374,07[D  ]| in$4$ the Irish car party, not at all like$4$ her. ~~ Well$7$, I declare ~~" 
307:374,08['  ]| They walked off, followed in$4$ half a minute$0$ by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
307:374,09['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, his son, $EM#A$Emma, and $EM#M$Harriet, 
307:374,10['  ]| only remained; and the young man's spirits now rose$1$ to$4$ 
307:374,11['  ]| a pitch almost unpleasant. Even$5$ $EM#A$Emma grew tired at last$0$ 
307:374,12['  ]| of flattery and merriment, 
307:374,12@a   | and wished herself rather walking 
307:374,13@a   | quietly about$5$ with any of the others, or sitting almost 
307:374,14@a   | alone, and quite unattended to$5$, in$4$ tranquil observation of 
307:374,15@a   | the beautiful views beneath her. The appearance of the 
307:374,16@a   | servants looking out$5$ for$4$ them to$9$ give notice$0$ of the carriages 
307:374,17@a   | was a joyful sight; and even$5$ the bustle$0$ of collecting and 
307:374,18@a   | preparing to$9$ depart, and the solicitude of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton to$9$ 
307:374,19@a   | have \her\ carriage first, were gladly endured, in$4$ the prospect 
307:374,20@a   | of the quiet$2$ drive$0$ home which$6#1$ was to$9$ close$1$ the very 
307:374,21@a   | questionable enjoyments of this day of pleasure. Such 
307:374,22@a   | another scheme$0$, composed of so$5#1$ many ill-assorted people, 
307:374,23@a   | she hoped never to$9$ be betrayed into again. 
307:374,24['  ]| While$4$ waiting for$4$ the carriage, she found $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
307:374,25['  ]| by$4$ her side$0$. 
307:374,25@a   | He looked around$5$, as if to$9$ see that$3$ no*one 
307:374,26@a   | were near$5$, and then said, 
307:374,27[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma, I must once more speak to$4$ you as I have been 
307:374,28[B  ]| used to$9$ do: a privilege rather endured than allowed, 
307:374,29[B  ]| perhaps, but I must still$5$ use$1$ it. I cannot see you acting 
307:374,30[B  ]| wrong, without a remonstrance. How could you be so$5#1$ 
307:374,31[B  ]| unfeeling to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates? How could you be so$5#1$ insolent 
307:374,32[B  ]| in$4$ your wit to$4$ a woman of her character, age, and situation? ~~ 
307:374,33[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma, I had not thought$1$ it possible." 
307:374,34['  ]| $EM#A$Emma recollected, blushed, was sorry, but tried to$9$ 
307:374,35['  ]| laugh$1$ it off. 
307:374,36[A  ]| "Nay, how could I help$1$ saying what I did? ~~ Nobody 
307:374,37[A  ]| could have helped it. It was not so$5#1$ very bad. I dare$1#2$ say 
307:374,38[A  ]| she did not understand me." 
307:375,01[B  ]| "I assure you she did. She felt your full meaning. 
307:375,02[B  ]| She has talked of it since. I wish$1$ you could have heard how 
307:375,03[B  ]| she talked of it ~~ with what candour and generosity. I wish$1$ 
307:375,04[B  ]| you could have heard her honouring your forbearance, in$4$ 
307:375,05[B  ]| being$1$ able to$9$ pay$1$ her such attentions, as she was for*ever 
307:375,06[B  ]| receiving from yourself and your father, when her society 
307:375,07[B  ]| must be so$5#1$ irksome." 
307:375,08[A  ]| "Oh!" 
307:375,08['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
307:375,08[A  ]| "I know there is not a better 
307:375,09[A  ]| creature in$4$ the world: but you must allow, that$3$ what is 
307:375,10[A  ]| good and what is ridiculous are most unfortunately 
307:375,11[A  ]| blended in$4$ her." 
307:375,12[B  ]| "They are blended," 
307:375,12['  ]| said he, 
307:375,12[B  ]| "I acknowledge; and, 
307:375,13[B  ]| were she prosperous, I could allow much for$4$ the occasional 
307:375,14[B  ]| prevalence of the ridiculous over the good. Were she 
307:375,15[B  ]| a woman of fortune, I would leave$1$ every harmless absurdity 
307:375,16[B  ]| to$9$ take its chance$0$, I would not quarrel$1$ with you for$4$ any 
307:375,17[B  ]| liberties of manner. Were she your equal$0$ in$4$ situation ~~ 
307:375,18[B  ]| but, $EM#A$Emma, consider how far this is from being$1$ the case. 
307:375,19[B  ]| She is poor; she has sunk from the comforts she was 
307:375,20[B  ]| born$1#1$ to$4$; and, if she live to$4$ old age, must probably sink 
307:375,21[B  ]| more. Her situation should secure$1$ your compassion. 
307:375,22[B  ]| It was badly done, indeed! ~~ You, whom$6#1$ she had known 
307:375,23[B  ]| from an infant, whom$6#1$ she had seen grow up$5$ from a period 
307:375,24[B  ]| when her notice$0$ was an honour$0$, to$9$ have you now, in$4$ 
307:375,25[B  ]| thoughtless spirits, and the pride of the moment, laugh$1$ 
307:375,26[B  ]| at her, humble$1$ her ~~ and before$4$ her niece, too$5#2$ ~~ and before$4$ 
307:375,27[B  ]| others, many of whom$6#1$ (certainly \some\,) would be entirely 
307:375,28[B  ]| guided by$4$ \your\ treatment of her. ~~ This is not pleasant to$4$ 
307:375,29[B  ]| you, $EM#A$Emma ~~ and it is very far from pleasant to$4$ me; but 
307:375,30[B  ]| I must, I will$1$, ~~ I will$1$ tell you truths while$3$ I can, satisfied 
307:375,31[B  ]| with proving myself your friend by$4$ very faithful counsel$0$, 
307:375,32[B  ]| and trusting that$3$ you will$1$ some time or other do me greater 
307:375,33[B  ]| justice than you can do now." 
307:375,34['  ]| While$3$ they talked, they were advancing towards the 
307:375,35['  ]| carriage; it was ready; and, before$3$ she could speak again, 
307:375,36['  ]| he had handed her in$5$. He had misinterpreted the feelings 
307:375,37['  ]| which$6#1$ had kept her face$0$ averted, and her tongue motionless. 
307:375,38['  ]| They were combined only of anger$0$ against herself, 
307:376,01['  ]| mortification, and deep concern$0$. She had not been able 
307:376,02['  ]| to$9$ speak; and, on$4$ entering the carriage, sunk back$5$ for$4$ 
307:376,03['  ]| a moment overcome ~~ then reproaching herself for$4$ having 
307:376,04['  ]| taken no$2$ leave$0$, making no$2$ acknowledgement, parting in$4$ 
307:376,05['  ]| apparent sullenness, she looked out$5$ with voice and hand$0$ 
307:376,06['  ]| eager to$9$ show$1$ a difference; but it was just$5$ too$5#1$ late. He 
307:376,07['  ]| had turned away, and the horses were in$4$ motion. She 
307:376,08['  ]| continued to$9$ look$1$ back$5$, but in$4$ vain; and soon, with what 
307:376,09['  ]| appeared unusual speed, they were half way down$4$ the 
307:376,10['  ]| hill, and every*thing left far behind. She was vexed 
307:376,11['  ]| beyond$4$ what could have been expressed ~~ almost beyond$4$ 
307:376,12['  ]| what she could conceal. Never had she felt so$5#1$ agitated, 
307:376,13['  ]| mortified, grieved, at any circumstance in$4$ her life. She 
307:376,14['  ]| was most forcibly struck. 
307:376,14@a   | The truth of his representation 
307:376,15@a   | there was no$2$ denying. 
307:376,15['  ]| She felt it at her heart. 
307:376,15@a   | How could 
307:376,16@a   | she have been so$5#1$ brutal, so$5#1$ cruel to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates! ~~ How 
307:376,17@a   | could she have exposed herself to$4$ such ill opinion in$4$ any 
307:376,18@a   | one she valued! And how suffer him to$9$ leave$1$ her without 
307:376,19@a   | saying one word of gratitude, of concurrence, of common$2$ 
307:376,20@a   | kindness! 
307:376,21['  ]| Time did not compose her. As she reflected more, she 
307:376,22['  ]| seemed but to$9$ feel it more. She never had been so$5#1$ 
307:376,23['  ]| depressed. 
307:376,23@a   | Happily it was not necessary to$9$ speak. There 
307:376,24@a   | was only $EM#M$Harriet, who$6#1$ seemed not in$4$ spirits herself, fagged, 
307:376,25@a   | and very willing to$9$ be silent; 
307:376,25['  ]| and $EM#A$Emma felt the tears 
307:376,26['  ]| running down$4$ her cheeks almost all the way home, without 
307:376,27['  ]| being$1$ at any trouble$0$ to$9$ check$1$ them, extraordinary as they 
307:376,28['  ]| were. 
308:377,01['  ]| The wretchedness of a scheme$0$ to$4$ Box*Hill was in$4$ 
308:377,02['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's thoughts all the evening. 
308:377,02@a   | How it might be 
308:377,03@a   | considered by$4$ the rest$0#1$ of the party, she could not tell. 
308:377,04@a   | They, in$4$ their different homes, and their different ways, 
308:377,05@a   | might be looking back$5$ on$4$ it with pleasure; but in$4$ her view$0$ 
308:377,06@a   | it was a morning more completely misspent, more totally 
308:377,07@a   | bare of rational satisfaction at the time, and more to$9$ be 
308:377,08@a   | abhorred in$4$ recollection, than any she had ever passed. 
308:377,09@a   | A whole$2$ evening of back-gammon with her father, was 
308:377,10@a   | felicity to$4$ it. \There\, indeed, lay$1#2$ real pleasure, for$3$ there 
308:377,11@a   | she was giving up$5$ the sweetest hours of the twenty-four to$4$ 
308:377,12@a   | his comfort$0$; and feeling that$3$, unmerited as might be the 
308:377,13@a   | degree of his fond affection and confiding esteem$0$, she could 
308:377,14@a   | not, in$4$ her general$2$ conduct$0$, be open$2$ to$4$ any severe reproach$0$. 
308:377,15@a   | As a daughter, she hoped she was not without a heart. 
308:377,16@a   | She hoped no*one could have said to$4$ her, "How could 
308:377,17@a   | you be so$5#1$ unfeeling to$4$ your father? ~~ I must, I will$1$ tell 
308:377,18@a   | you truths while$3$ I can." $EM#D$Miss*Bates should never again ~~ 
308:377,19@a   | no$7$, never! If attention, in$4$ future, could do away the 
308:377,20@a   | past$0$, she might hope$1$ to$9$ be forgiven. She had been often 
308:377,21@a   | remiss, her conscience told her so$5#2$; remiss, perhaps, more 
308:377,22@a   | in$4$ thought$0$ than fact; scornful, ungracious. But it 
308:377,23@a   | should be so$5#2$ no$2$ more. 
308:377,23['  ]| In$4$ the warmth of true contrition, 
308:377,24@a   | she would call$1$ upon$4$ her the very next morning, and it 
308:377,25@a   | should be the beginning, on$4$ her side$0$, of a regular, equal$2$, 
308:377,26@a   | kindly intercourse. 
308:377,27['  ]| She was just$5$ as determined when the morrow came, 
308:377,28['  ]| and went early, that$3$ nothing might prevent her. 
308:377,28@a   | It was 
308:377,29@a   | not unlikely, 
308:377,29['  ]| she thought$1$, 
308:377,29@a   | that$3$ she might see $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
308:377,30@a   | in$4$ her way; or, perhaps, he might come in$5$ while$3$ she were 
308:377,31@a   | paying her visit$0$. She had no$2$ objection. She would not 
308:377,32@a   | be ashamed of the appearance of the penitence, so$5#1$ justly 
308:378,01@a   | and truly hers. Her eyes were towards Donwell as she 
308:378,02@a   | walked, but she saw him not. 
308:378,03[V  ]| "The ladies were all at home." 
308:378,03['  ]| She had never rejoiced 
308:378,04['  ]| at the sound$0$ before$5$, nor ever before$5$ entered the 
308:378,05['  ]| passage, nor walked up$4$ the stairs, with any wish$0$ of giving 
308:378,06['  ]| pleasure, but in$4$ conferring obligation, or of deriving it, 
308:378,07['  ]| except in$4$ subsequent ridicule$0#1$. 
308:378,08@a   | There was a bustle$0$ on$4$ her approach$0$; a good deal$0$ of 
308:378,09@a   | moving and talking. She heard $EM#D$Miss*Bates's voice, some*thing 
308:378,10@a   | was to$9$ be done in$4$ a hurry$0$; the maid looked frightened 
308:378,11@a   | and awkward; 
308:378,11@v   | hoped she would be pleased to$9$ wait a 
308:378,12@v   | moment, 
308:378,12@a   | and then ushered her in$5$ too$5#1$ soon. The aunt and 
308:378,13@a   | niece seemed both escaping into the adjoining room. $EM#J$Jane 
308:378,14@a   | she had a distinct glimpse of, looking extremely ill; and, 
308:378,15@a   | before$3$ the door had shut them out$5$, she heard $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
308:378,16@a   | saying, 
308:378,16[D  ]| "Well$7$, my dear$2#1$, I shall \say\ you are laid down$5$ 
308:378,17[D  ]| upon$4$ the bed, and I am sure you are ill enough." 
308:378,18@a   | Poor old $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, civil and humble$2$ as usual, looked 
308:378,19@a   | as if she did not quite understand what was going on$5$. 
308:378,20[C  ]| "I am afraid $EM#J$Jane is not very well$5$," 
308:378,20['  ]| said she, 
308:378,20[C  ]| "but 
308:378,21[C  ]| I do not know; they \tell\ me she is well$5$. I dare$1#2$ say my 
308:378,22[C  ]| daughter will$1$ be here presently, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. I hope$1$ 
308:378,23[C  ]| you find a chair. I wish$1$ $EM#D$Hetty had not gone. I am very 
308:378,24[C  ]| little able ~~ Have you a chair, ma'am? Do you sit where 
308:378,25[C  ]| you like$1$? I am sure she will$1$ be here presently." 
308:378,26['  ]| $EM#A$Emma seriously hoped she would. She had a moment's 
308:378,27['  ]| fear$0$ of $EM#D$Miss*Bates keeping away from her. But $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
308:378,28['  ]| soon came ~~ 
308:378,28[D  ]| "Very happy and obliged" ~~ 
308:378,28['  ]| but $EM#A$Emma's 
308:378,29['  ]| conscience told her that$3$ 
308:378,29@a   | there was not the same cheerful 
308:378,30@a   | volubility as before$5$ ~~ less ease$0$ of look$0$ and manner. A very 
308:378,31@a   | friendly inquiry after$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, she hoped, might lead$1$ 
308:378,32@a   | the way to$4$ a return$0$ of old feelings. The touch$0$ seemed 
308:378,33@a   | immediate. 
308:378,34[D  ]| "Ah! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, how kind$2$ you are! ~~ I suppose 
308:378,35[D  ]| you have heard ~~ and are come to$9$ give us joy. This does 
308:378,36[D  ]| not seem much like$4$ joy, indeed, in$4$ me ~~ 
308:378,36['  ]| (twinkling away 
308:378,37['  ]| a tear$0$ or two) ~~ 
308:378,37[D  ]| but it will$1$ be very trying for$4$ us to$9$ part$1$ 
308:378,38[D  ]| with her, after$4$ having had her so$5#1$ long, and she has 
308:379,01[D  ]| a dreadful headach just$5$ now, writing all the morning: ~~ 
308:379,02[D  ]| such long letters, you know, to$9$ be written to$4$ $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell, 
308:379,03[D  ]| and $EM#ZF1$Mrs%*Dixon. ""My dear$2#1$,"" said I, ""you will$1$ 
308:379,04[D  ]| blind$1$ yourself"" ~~ for$3$ tears were in$4$ her eyes perpetually. 
308:379,05[D  ]| One cannot wonder$1$, one cannot wonder$1$. It is a great 
308:379,06[D  ]| change$0$; and though she is amazingly fortunate ~~ such 
308:379,07[D  ]| a situation, I suppose, as no$2$ young woman before$5$ ever 
308:379,08[D  ]| met with on$4$ first going out$5$ ~~ do not think us ungrateful, 
308:379,09[D  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, for$4$ such surprising good fortune ~~ 
308:379,09['  ]| (again 
308:379,10['  ]| dispersing her tears) ~~ 
308:379,10[D  ]| but, poor dear$2#1$ soul! if you were to$9$ 
308:379,11[D  ]| see what a headach she has. When one is in$4$ great pain$0$, 
308:379,12[D  ]| you know one cannot feel any blessing quite as it may$1$ 
308:379,13[D  ]| deserve. She is as low as possible. To$9$ look$1$ at her, 
308:379,14[D  ]| nobody would think how delighted and happy she is to$9$ 
308:379,15[D  ]| have secured such a situation. You will$1$ excuse$1$ her not 
308:379,16[D  ]| coming to$4$ you ~~ she is not able ~~ she is gone into her own$2$ 
308:379,17[D  ]| room ~~ I want$1$ her to$9$ lie$1$ down$5$ upon$4$ the bed. ""My dear$2#1$,"" 
308:379,18[D  ]| said I, ""I shall say you are laid down$5$ upon$4$ the bed:"" but, 
308:379,19[D  ]| however, she is not; she is walking about$4$ the room. 
308:379,20[D  ]| But, now that$3$ she has written her letters, she says she 
308:379,21[D  ]| shall soon be well$5$. She will$1$ be extremely sorry to$9$ miss 
308:379,22[D  ]| seeing you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, but your kindness will$1$ 
308:379,23[D  ]| excuse$1$ her. You were kept waiting at the door ~~ I was 
308:379,24[D  ]| quite ashamed ~~ but somehow there was a little bustle$0$ ~~ 
308:379,25[D  ]| for$3$ it so$5#2$ happened that$3$ we had not heard the knock$0$, and 
308:379,26[D  ]| till you were on$4$ the stairs, we did not know any*body was 
308:379,27[D  ]| coming. ""It is only $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole,"" said I, ""depend upon$4$ it. 
308:379,28[D  ]| Nobody else would come so$5#1$ early."" 
308:379,28@j   | "Well$7$,"" 
308:379,28[D  ]| said she, 
308:379,28@j   | ""it 
308:379,29@j   | must be borne some time or other, and it may$1$ as well$5$ be 
308:379,30@j   | now."" 
308:379,30[D  ]| But then $EM#V$Patty came in$5$, and said it was you. 
308:379,31[D  ]| ""Oh!"" said I, ""it is $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse: I am sure you 
308:379,32[D  ]| will$1$ like$1$ to$9$ see her."" ~~ 
308:379,32@j   | ""I can see nobody,"" 
308:379,32[D  ]| said she; and 
308:379,33[D  ]| up$5$ she got, and would go away; and that$6#2$ was what made 
308:379,34[D  ]| us keep you waiting ~~ and extremely sorry and ashamed 
308:379,35[D  ]| we were. ""If you must go, my dear$2#1$,"" said I, ""you must, 
308:379,36[D  ]| and I will$1$ say you are laid down$5$ upon$4$ the bed."" " 
308:379,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was most sincerely interested. Her heart had been 
308:379,38['  ]| long growing kinder towards $EM#J$Jane; and this picture$0$ of her 
308:380,01['  ]| present$2$ sufferings acted as a cure$0$ of every former ungenerous 
308:380,02['  ]| suspicion, and left her nothing but pity$0$; and the remembrance 
308:380,03['  ]| of the less just$2$ and less gentle sensations of the 
308:380,04['  ]| past$0$, obliged her to$9$ admit that$3$ 
308:380,04@a   | $EM#J$Jane might very naturally 
308:380,05@a   | resolve$1$ on$4$ seeing $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole or any other steady friend, 
308:380,06@a   | when she might not bear$1$ to$9$ see herself. 
308:380,06['  ]| She spoke as she 
308:380,07['  ]| felt, with earnest regret$0$ and solicitude ~~ 
308:380,07@a   | sincerely wishing 
308:380,08@a   | that$3$ the circumstances which$6#1$ she collected from $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
308:380,09@a   | to$9$ be now actually determined on$5$, might be as much for$4$ 
308:380,10@a   | $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's advantage and comfort$0$ as possible. 
308:380,10[A  ]| "It 
308:380,11[A  ]| must be a severe trial to$4$ them all. She had understood 
308:380,12[A  ]| it was to$9$ be delayed till $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell's return$0$." 
308:380,13[D  ]| "So$5#1$ very kind$2$!" 
308:380,13['  ]| replied $EM#D$Miss*Bates. 
308:380,13[D  ]| "But you are 
308:380,14[D  ]| always kind$2$." 
308:380,15@a   | There was no$2$ bearing such an 
308:380,15[D  ]| "always;" 
308:380,15@a   | and to$9$ break 
308:380,16@a   | through$4$ her dreadful gratitude, 
308:380,16['  ]| $EM#A$Emma made the direct$2$ 
308:380,17['  ]| inquiry of ~~ 
308:380,18[A  ]| "Where ~~ may$1$ I ask? ~~ is $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax going?" 
308:380,19[D  ]| "To$4$ a $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge ~~ charming woman ~~ most 
308:380,20[D  ]| superior ~~ to$9$ have the charge$0$ of her three little girls ~~ 
308:380,21[D  ]| delightful children. Impossible that$3$ any situation could 
308:380,22[D  ]| be more replete with comfort$0$; if we except, perhaps, 
308:380,23[D  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Suckling's own$2$ family, and $EM#ZB1$Mrs%*Bragge's; but 
308:380,24[D  ]| $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge is intimate$2$ with both, and in$4$ the very 
308:380,25[D  ]| same neighbourhood: ~~ lives$1$ only four miles from Maple*Grove. 
308:380,26[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane will$1$ be only four miles from Maple*Grove." 
308:380,27[A  ]| "$EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, I suppose, has been the person to$4$ whom$6#1$ 
308:380,28[A  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax owes ~~" 
308:380,29[D  ]| "Yes, our good $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. The most indefatigable, 
308:380,30[D  ]| true friend. She would not take a denial. She would not 
308:380,31[D  ]| let $EM#J$Jane say ""No$7$;"" for$3$ when $EM#J$Jane first heard of it, (it 
308:380,32[D  ]| was the day before$4$ yesterday, the very morning we were at 
308:380,33[D  ]| Donwell,) when $EM#J$Jane first heard of it, she was quite 
308:380,34[D  ]| decided against accepting the offer$0$, and for$4$ the reasons 
308:380,35[D  ]| you mention$1$; exactly as you say, she had made up$5$ her 
308:380,36[D  ]| mind$0$ to$9$ close$1$ with nothing till $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell's return$0$, 
308:380,37[D  ]| and nothing should induce her to$9$ enter into any engagement 
308:380,38[D  ]| at present$0#1$ ~~ and so$3$ she told $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton over and over 
308:381,01[D  ]| again ~~ and I am sure I had no$2$ more idea that$3$ she would 
308:381,02[D  ]| change$1$ her mind$0$! ~~ but that$6#2$ good $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, whose$6#1$ judgement 
308:381,03[D  ]| never fails her, saw farther than I did. It is not 
308:381,04[D  ]| every*body that$6#1$ would have stood out$5$ in$4$ such a kind$2$ way 
308:381,05[D  ]| as she did, and refuse to$9$ take $EM#J$Jane's answer$0$; but she 
308:381,06[D  ]| positively declared she would \not\ write any such denial 
308:381,07[D  ]| yesterday, as $EM#J$Jane wished her; she would wait ~~ and, 
308:381,08[D  ]| sure enough, yesterday evening it was all settled that$3$ 
308:381,09[D  ]| $EM#J$Jane should go. Quite a surprise$0$ to$4$ me! I had not the 
308:381,10[D  ]| least idea! ~~ $EM#J$Jane took $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton aside, and told her at 
308:381,11[D  ]| once, that$3$ upon$4$ thinking over the advantages of $EM#V$Mrs%*Suckling's 
308:381,12[D  ]| situation, she had come to$4$ the resolution of 
308:381,13[D  ]| accepting it. ~~ I did not know a word of it till it was all 
308:381,14[D  ]| settled." 
308:381,15[A  ]| "You spent the evening with $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton?" 
308:381,16[D  ]| "Yes, all of us; $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton would have us come. It 
308:381,17[D  ]| was settled so$5#2$, upon$4$ the hill, while$3$ we were walking about$5$ 
308:381,18[D  ]| with $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
308:381,18@i   | ""You \must\ \all\ spend your evening 
308:381,19@i   | with us,"" 
308:381,19[D  ]| said she ~~ 
308:381,19@i   | ""I positively must have you \all\ 
308:381,20@i   | come."" " 
308:381,21[A  ]| "$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was there too$5#2$, was he?" 
308:381,22[D  ]| "No$7$, not $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; he declined it from the first; 
308:381,23[D  ]| and though I thought$1$ he would come, because $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
308:381,24[D  ]| declared she would not let him off, he did not; ~~ but my 
308:381,25[D  ]| mother, and $EM#J$Jane, and I, were all there, and a very agreeable 
308:381,26[D  ]| evening we had. Such kind$2$ friends, you know, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
308:381,27[D  ]| one must always find agreeable, though every*body 
308:381,28[D  ]| seemed rather fagged after$4$ the morning's party. 
308:381,29[D  ]| Even$5$ pleasure, you know, is fatiguing ~~ and I cannot say 
308:381,30[D  ]| that$3$ any of them seemed very much to$9$ have enjoyed it. 
308:381,31[D  ]| However, \I\ shall always think it a very pleasant party, 
308:381,32[D  ]| and feel extremely obliged to$4$ the kind$2$ friends who$6#1$ included 
308:381,33[D  ]| me in$4$ it." 
308:381,34[A  ]| "$EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, I suppose, though you were not aware 
308:381,35[A  ]| of it, had been making up$5$ her mind$0$ the whole$2$ day." 
308:381,36[D  ]| "I dare$1#2$ say she had." 
308:381,37[A  ]| "Whenever the time may$1$ come, it must be unwelcome 
308:381,38[A  ]| to$4$ her and all her friends ~~ but I hope$1$ her engagement will$1$ 
308:382,01[A  ]| have every alleviation that$6#1$ is possible ~~ I mean$1$, as to$4$ the 
308:382,02[A  ]| character and manners of the family." 
308:382,03[D  ]| "Thank you, dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. Yes, indeed, 
308:382,04[D  ]| there is every*thing in$4$ the world that$6#1$ can make$1$ her happy 
308:382,05[D  ]| in$4$ it. Except the $EM#W2$Sucklings and $EM#ZB2$Bragges, there is not 
308:382,06[D  ]| such another nursery establishment, so$5#1$ liberal and elegant, 
308:382,07[D  ]| in$4$ all $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's acquaintance. $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge, a most 
308:382,08[D  ]| delightful woman! ~~ A style of living almost equal$2$ to$4$ 
308:382,09[D  ]| Maple*Grove ~~ and as to$4$ the children, except the little 
308:382,10[D  ]| $EM#W2$Sucklings and little $EM#ZB3$Bragges, there are not such elegant 
308:382,11[D  ]| sweet children any*where. $EM#J$Jane will$1$ be treated with such 
308:382,12[D  ]| regard$0$ and kindness! ~~ It will$1$ be nothing but pleasure, 
308:382,13[D  ]| a life of pleasure. ~~ And her salary! ~~ I really cannot venture 
308:382,14[D  ]| to$9$ name$1$ her salary to$4$ you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. Even$5$ 
308:382,15[D  ]| you, used as you are to$4$ great sums, would hardly believe 
308:382,16[D  ]| that$3$ so$5#1$ much could be given to$4$ a young person like$4$ $EM#J$Jane." 
308:382,17[A  ]| "Ah! madam," 
308:382,17['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
308:382,17[A  ]| "if other children are at 
308:382,18[A  ]| all like$4$ what I remember to$9$ have been myself, I should 
308:382,19[A  ]| think five times the amount of what I have ever yet heard 
308:382,20[A  ]| named as a salary on$4$ such occasions, dearly$5#2$ earned." 
308:382,21[D  ]| "You are so$5#1$ noble in$4$ your ideas!" 
308:382,22[A  ]| "And when is $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax to$9$ leave$1$ you?" 
308:382,23[D  ]| "Very soon, very soon indeed; that's the worst of it. 
308:382,24[D  ]| Within a fortnight. $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge is in$4$ a great hurry$0$. 
308:382,25[D  ]| My poor mother does not know how to$9$ bear$1$ it. So$3$ then, 
308:382,26[D  ]| I try to$9$ put it out$5$ of her thoughts, and say, Come ma'am, 
308:382,27[D  ]| do not let us think about$4$ it any more." 
308:382,28[A  ]| "Her friends must all be sorry to$9$ lose her; and will$1$ not 
308:382,29[A  ]| $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell be sorry to$9$ find that$3$ she has 
308:382,30[A  ]| engaged herself before$4$ their return$0$?" 
308:382,31[D  ]| "Yes; $EM#J$Jane says she is sure they will$1$; but yet, this 
308:382,32[D  ]| is such a situation as she cannot feel herself justified in$4$ 
308:382,33[D  ]| declining. I was so$5#1$ astonished when she first told me 
308:382,34[D  ]| what she had been saying to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, and when 
308:382,35[D  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton at the same moment came congratulating me 
308:382,36[D  ]| upon$4$ it! It was before$4$ tea ~~ stay$1$ ~~ no$7$, it could not be 
308:382,37[D  ]| before$4$ tea, because we were just$5$ going to$4$ cards ~~ and yet 
308:382,38[D  ]| it was before$4$ tea, because I remember thinking ~~ Oh! no$7$ 
308:383,01[D  ]| now I recollect, now I have it; something happened 
308:383,02[D  ]| before$4$ tea, but not that$6#2$. $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was called out$5$ of the 
308:383,03[D  ]| room before$4$ tea, old $EM#ZA$John*Abdy's son wanted to$9$ speak 
308:383,04[D  ]| with him. Poor old $EM#ZA$John, I have a great regard$0$ for$4$ him; 
308:383,05[D  ]| he was clerk to$4$ my poor father twenty-seven years; and 
308:383,06[D  ]| now, poor old man, he is bed-ridden, and very poorly with 
308:383,07[D  ]| the rheumatic gout in$4$ his joints ~~ I must go and see him 
308:383,08[D  ]| to-day; and so$5#2$ will$1$ $EM#J$Jane, I am sure, if she gets out$5$ at all. 
308:383,09[D  ]| And poor $EM#ZA$John's son came to$9$ talk$1$ to$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton about$4$ relief 
308:383,10[D  ]| from the parish: he is very well$5$ to$9$ do himself, you know, 
308:383,11[D  ]| being$1$ head*man at the Crown$0#1$, ostler, and every*thing of 
308:383,12[D  ]| that$6#2$ sort, but still$5$ he cannot keep his father without some 
308:383,13[D  ]| help$0$; so$3$, when $EM#H$Mr%*Elton came back$5$, he told us what 
308:383,14[D  ]| $EM#ZA1$John ostler had been telling him, and then it came out$5$ 
308:383,15[D  ]| about$4$ the chaise having been sent to$4$ Randall's to$9$ take 
308:383,16[D  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill to$4$ Richmond. That$6#2$ was what 
308:383,17[D  ]| happened before$4$ tea. It was after$4$ tea that$3$ $EM#J$Jane spoke to$4$ 
308:383,18[D  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton." 
308:383,19['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates would hardly give $EM#A$Emma time to$9$ say how 
308:383,20['  ]| perfectly new this circumstance was to$4$ her; but 
308:383,20@a   | as without 
308:383,21@a   | supposing it possible that$3$ she could be ignorant of any 
308:383,22@a   | of the particulars of $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill's going, she 
308:383,23@a   | proceeded to$9$ give them all, it was of no$2$ consequence. 
308:383,24['  ]| What $EM#H$Mr%*Elton had learnt from the ostler on$4$ the 
308:383,25['  ]| subject$0$, being$1$ the accumulation of the ostler's own$2$ knowledge, 
308:383,26['  ]| and the knowledge of the servants at Randall's, 
308:383,27['  ]| was, that$3$ a messenger had come over from Richmond soon 
308:383,28['  ]| after$4$ the return$0$ of the party from Box*Hill ~~ which$6#1$ 
308:383,29['  ]| messenger, however, had been no$2$ more than was expected; 
308:383,30['  ]| and that$3$ $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill had sent his nephew a few lines, 
308:383,31['  ]| containing, upon$4$ the whole$0$, a tolerable account$0$ of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, 
308:383,32['  ]| and only wishing him not to$9$ delay$1$ coming back$5$ 
308:383,33['  ]| beyond$4$ the next morning early; but that$3$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
308:383,34['  ]| having resolved to$9$ go home directly, without 
308:383,35['  ]| waiting at all, and his horse seeming to$9$ have got a cold$0$, 
308:383,36['  ]| $EM#ZZQ$Tom had been sent off immediately for$4$ the Crown$0#1$ chaise, 
308:383,37['  ]| and the ostler had stood out$5$ and seen it pass$1$ by$5$, the boy 
308:383,38['  ]| going a good pace$0$, and driving very steady. 
308:384,01@a   | There was nothing in$4$ all this either to$9$ astonish or 
308:384,02@a   | interest$1$, 
308:384,02['  ]| and it caught $EM#A$Emma's attention only as it united 
308:384,03['  ]| with the subject$0$ which$6#1$ already engaged her mind$0$. The 
308:384,04['  ]| contrast between $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's importance in$4$ the world, 
308:384,05['  ]| and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's, struck her; 
308:384,05@a   | one was every*thing, the 
308:384,06@a   | other nothing ~~ 
308:384,06['  ]| and she sat musing on$4$ the difference of 
308:384,07['  ]| woman's destiny, and quite unconscious on$4$ what her eyes 
308:384,08['  ]| were fixed, till roused by$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates's saying, 
308:384,09[D  ]| "Ay, I see what you are thinking of, the piano*forte=. 
308:384,10[D  ]| What is to$9$ become of that$6#2$? ~~ Very true. Poor dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane 
308:384,11[D  ]| was talking of it just$5$ now. ~~ 
308:384,11@j   | ""You must go,"" 
308:384,11[D  ]| said she. 
308:384,12@j   | ""You and I must part$1$. You will$1$ have no$2$ business here. ~~ 
308:384,13@j   | Let it stay$1$, however,"" 
308:384,13[D  ]| said she; 
308:384,13@j   | ""give it house-room till 
308:384,14@j   | $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell comes back$5$. I shall talk$1$ about$4$ it to$4$ 
308:384,15@j   | him; he will$1$ settle for$4$ me; he will$1$ help$1$ me out$5$ of all my 
308:384,16@j   | difficulties."" ~~ 
308:384,16[D  ]| And to$4$ this day, I do believe, she knows not 
308:384,17[D  ]| whether it was his present$0#2$ or his daughter's." 
308:384,18['  ]| Now $EM#A$Emma was obliged to$9$ think of the piano*forte=; 
308:384,19['  ]| and the remembrance of all her former fanciful and unfair 
308:384,20['  ]| conjectures$0$ was so$5#1$ little pleasing, that$3$ she soon allowed 
308:384,21['  ]| herself to$9$ believe her visit$0$ had been long enough; and, 
308:384,22['  ]| with a repetition of every*thing that$6#1$ she could venture to$9$ 
308:384,23['  ]| say of the good wishes$0$ which$6#1$ she really felt, took leave$0$. 
309:385,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's pensive meditations, as she walked home, were 
309:385,02['  ]| not interrupted; but on$4$ entering the parlour, she found 
309:385,03['  ]| those who$6#1$ must rouse her. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#M$Harriet 
309:385,04['  ]| had arrived during her absence, and were sitting with her 
309:385,05['  ]| father. ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley immediately got up$5$, and in$4$ 
309:385,06['  ]| a manner decidedly graver than usual, said, 
309:385,07[B  ]| "I would not go away without seeing you, but I have 
309:385,08[B  ]| no$2$ time to$9$ spare$1$, and therefore must now be gone directly. 
309:385,09[B  ]| I am going to$4$ London, to$9$ spend a few days with $EM#K$John and 
309:385,10[B  ]| $EM#L$Isabella. Have you any*thing to$9$ send or say, besides the 
309:385,11[B  ]| ""love$0$,"" which$6#1$ nobody carries?" 
309:385,12[A  ]| "Nothing at all. But is not this a sudden$2$ scheme$0$?" 
309:385,13[B  ]| "Yes ~~ rather ~~ I have been thinking of it some little 
309:385,14[B  ]| time." 
309:385,15['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was sure he had not forgiven her; 
309:385,15@a   | he looked 
309:385,16@a   | unlike himself. Time, however, 
309:385,16['  ]| she thought$1$, 
309:385,16@a   | would tell him 
309:385,17@a   | that$3$ they ought to$9$ be friends again. 
309:385,17['  ]| While$3$ he stood, as 
309:385,18['  ]| if meaning to$9$ go, but not going ~~ her father began his 
309:385,19['  ]| inquiries. 
309:385,20[P  ]| "Well$7$, my dear$2#1$, and did you get there safely? ~~ And 
309:385,21[P  ]| how did you find my worthy old friend and her daughter? 
309:385,22[P  ]| ~~ I dare$1#2$ say they must have been very much obliged to$4$ 
309:385,23[P  ]| you for$4$ coming. Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma has been to$9$ call$1$ on$4$ $EM#C$Mrs% and 
309:385,24[P  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, as I told you before$5$. She is 
309:385,25[P  ]| always so$5#1$ attentive to$4$ them!" 
309:385,26['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's colour was heightened by$4$ this unjust praise$0$; 
309:385,27['  ]| and with a smile$0$, and shake$0$ of the head$0$, which$6#1$ spoke much, 
309:385,28['  ]| she looked at $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ 
309:385,28@a   | It seemed as if there were 
309:385,29@a   | an instantaneous impression in$4$ her favour$0$, as if his eyes 
309:385,30@a   | received the truth from her's, and all that$6#1$ had passed of 
309:385,31@a   | good in$4$ her feelings were at once caught and honoured. ~~ 
309:385,32@a   | He looked at her with a glow of regard$0$. She was warmly 
309:385,33@a   | gratified ~~ and in$4$ another moment still$5$ more so$5#2$, by$4$ a little 
309:386,01@a   | movement of more than common$2$ friendliness on$4$ his part$0$. ~~ 
309:386,02@a   | He took her hand$0$; ~~ whether she had not herself made the 
309:386,03@a   | first motion, she could not say ~~ she might, perhaps, have 
309:386,04@a   | rather offered it ~~ but he took her hand$0$, pressed it, and 
309:386,05@a   | certainly was on$4$ the point$0$ of carrying it to$4$ his lips ~~ when, 
309:386,06@a   | from some fancy$0$ or other, he suddenly let it go. ~~ Why he 
309:386,07@a   | should feel such a scruple$0$, why he should change$1$ his mind$0$ 
309:386,08@a   | when it was all but done, she could not perceive. ~~ He would 
309:386,09@a   | have judged better, 
309:386,09['  ]| she thought$1$, 
309:386,09@a   | if he had not stopped. ~~ The 
309:386,10@a   | intention, however, was indubitable; and whether it was 
309:386,11@a   | that$3$ his manners had in$4$ general$0$ so$5#1$ little gallantry, or 
309:386,12@a   | however else it happened, but she thought$1$ nothing 
309:386,13@a   | became him more. ~~ It was with him, of so$5#1$ simple$2$, yet so$5#1$ 
309:386,14@a   | dignified a nature. ~~ She could not but recall$1$ the attempt$0$ 
309:386,15@a   | with great satisfaction. It spoke such perfect$2$ amity. ~~ He 
309:386,16@a   | left them immediately afterwards ~~ gone in$4$ a moment. 
309:386,17@a   | He always moved with the alertness of a mind$0$ which$6#1$ could 
309:386,18@a   | neither be undecided nor dilatory, but now he seemed more 
309:386,19@a   | sudden$2$ than usual in$4$ his disappearance. 
309:386,20@a   | $EM#A$Emma could not regret$1$ her having gone to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates, 
309:386,21@a   | but she wished she had left her ten minutes earlier; ~~ it 
309:386,22@a   | would have been a great pleasure to$9$ talk$1$ over $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's 
309:386,23@a   | situation with $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ Neither would she 
309:386,24@a   | regret$1$ that$3$ he should be going to$4$ Brunswick*Square, for$3$ 
309:386,25@a   | she knew how much his visit$0$ would be enjoyed ~~ but it 
309:386,26@a   | might have happened at a better time ~~ and to$9$ have had 
309:386,27@a   | longer notice$0$ of it, would have been pleasanter. ~~ They 
309:386,28@a   | parted thorough friends, however; she could not be 
309:386,29@a   | deceived as to$4$ the meaning of his countenance, and his 
309:386,30@a   | unfinished gallantry; ~~ it was all done to$9$ assure her that$3$ 
309:386,31@a   | she had fully recovered his good opinion. ~~ He had been 
309:386,32@a   | sitting with them half an hour, she found. It was a pity$0$ 
309:386,33@a   | that$3$ she had not come back$5$ earlier! 
309:386,34['  ]| In$4$ the hope$0$ of diverting her father's thoughts from the 
309:386,35['  ]| disagreeableness of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's going to$4$ London; and 
309:386,36['  ]| going so$5#1$ suddenly; and going on$4$ horseback, which$6#1$ she 
309:386,37['  ]| knew would be all very bad; $EM#A$Emma communicated her 
309:386,38['  ]| news of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, and her dependence on$4$ the effect$0$ 
309:387,01['  ]| was justified; it supplied a very useful check$0$, ~~ interested, 
309:387,02['  ]| without disturbing him. He had long made up$5$ his mind$0$ 
309:387,03['  ]| to$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's going out$5$ as governess, and could talk$1$ 
309:387,04['  ]| of it cheerfully, but $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's going to$4$ London had 
309:387,05['  ]| been an unexpected blow. 
309:387,06[P  ]| "I am very glad indeed, my dear$2#1$, to$9$ hear she is to$9$ be so$5#1$ 
309:387,07[P  ]| comfortably settled. $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton is very good-natured and 
309:387,08[P  ]| agreeable, and I dare$1#2$ say her acquaintance are just$5$ what 
309:387,09[P  ]| they ought to$9$ be. I hope$1$ it is a dry$2$ situation, and that$3$ her 
309:387,10[P  ]| health will$1$ be taken good care$0$ of. It ought to$9$ be a first 
309:387,11[P  ]| object$0$, as I am sure poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's always was with me. 
309:387,12[P  ]| You know, my dear$2#1$, she is going to$9$ be to$4$ this new lady 
309:387,13[P  ]| what $EM#O$Miss*Taylor was to$4$ us. And I hope$1$ she will$1$ be better 
309:387,14[P  ]| off in$4$ one respect$0$, and not be induced to$9$ go away after$3$ it 
309:387,15[P  ]| has been her home so$5#1$ long." 
309:387,16['  ]| The following day brought news from Richmond to$9$ 
309:387,17['  ]| throw$1$ every*thing else into the back-ground. An express$0$ 
309:387,18['  ]| arrived at Randall's to$9$ announce the death of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill! 
309:387,19['  ]| Though her nephew had had no$2$ particular reason$0$ to$9$ 
309:387,20['  ]| hasten back$5$ on$4$ her account$0$, she had not lived above$4$ six-and-thirty 
309:387,21['  ]| hours after$4$ his return$0$. A sudden$2$ seizure of 
309:387,22['  ]| a different nature from any*thing foreboded by$4$ her general$2$ 
309:387,23['  ]| state$0$, had carried her off after$4$ a short struggle$0$. The great 
309:387,24['  ]| $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill was no$2$ more. 
309:387,25['  ]| It was felt as such things must be felt. Every*body had 
309:387,26['  ]| a degree of gravity and sorrow; tenderness towards the 
309:387,27['  ]| departed, solicitude for$4$ the surviving friends; and, in$4$ 
309:387,28['  ]| a reasonable time, curiosity to$9$ know where she would be 
309:387,29['  ]| buried. $EM#Z1$Goldsmith tells us, that$3$ when lovely woman 
309:387,30['  ]| stoops to$9$ folly, she has nothing to$9$ do but to$9$ die$1$; and when 
309:387,31['  ]| she stoops to$9$ be disagreeable, it is equally to$9$ be recommended 
309:387,32['  ]| as a clearer of ill-fame. $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, after$4$ 
309:387,33['  ]| being$1$ disliked at least twenty-five years, was now spoken 
309:387,34['  ]| of with compassionate allowances. In$4$ one point$0$ she was 
309:387,35['  ]| fully justified. She had never been admitted before$5$ to$9$ be 
309:387,36['  ]| seriously ill. The event acquitted her of all the fancifulness, 
309:387,37['  ]| and all the selfishness of imaginary complaints. 
309:387,38[X  ]| "Poor $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill! no$2$ doubt$0$ she had been suffering 
309:388,01[X  ]| a great deal$0$: more than any*body had ever supposed ~~ 
309:388,02[X  ]| and continual pain$0$ would try the temper. It was a sad 
309:388,03[X  ]| event ~~ a great shock$0$ ~~ with all her faults, what would 
309:388,04[X  ]| $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill do without her? $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill's loss would 
309:388,05[X  ]| be dreadful indeed. $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill would never get over it." 
309:388,06['  ]| ~~ Even$5$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston shook his head$0$, and looked solemn, 
309:388,07['  ]| and said, 
309:388,07[N  ]| "Ah! poor woman, who$6#2$ would have thought$1$ 
309:388,08[N  ]| it!" 
309:388,08['  ]| and resolved, that$3$ his mourning should be as handsome 
309:388,09['  ]| as possible; and his wife sat sighing and moralizing 
309:388,10['  ]| over her broad hems with a commiseration and good sense, 
309:388,11['  ]| true and steady. How it would affect $EM#E$Frank was among 
309:388,12['  ]| the earliest thoughts of both. It was also a very early 
309:388,13['  ]| speculation with $EM#A$Emma. 
309:388,13@a   | The character of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill, 
309:388,14@a   | the grief of her husband ~~ 
309:388,14['  ]| her mind$0$ glanced over them both 
309:388,15['  ]| with awe and compassion ~~ and then rested with lightened 
309:388,16['  ]| feelings on$4$ 
309:388,16@a   | how $EM#E$Frank might be affected by$4$ the event, how 
309:388,17@a   | benefited, how freed. She saw in$4$ a moment all the possible 
309:388,18@a   | good. Now, an attachment to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith would have 
309:388,19@a   | nothing to$9$ encounter. $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill, independent of his 
309:388,20@a   | wife, was feared by$4$ nobody; an easy, guidable man, to$9$ 
309:388,21@a   | be persuaded into any*thing by$4$ his nephew. All that$6#1$ 
309:388,22@a   | remained to$9$ be wished was, that$3$ the nephew should form$1$ 
309:388,23@a   | the attachment, as, with all her good*will in$4$ the cause, 
309:388,24@a   | $EM#A$Emma could feel no$2$ certainty of its being$1$ already formed. 
309:388,25@a   | $EM#M$Harriet behaved extremely well$5$ on$4$ the occasion$0$, with 
309:388,26@a   | great self-command. Whatever she might feel of brighter 
309:388,27@a   | hope$0$, she betrayed nothing. 
309:388,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was gratified, to$9$ 
309:388,28['  ]| observe such a proof in$4$ her of strengthened character, and 
309:388,29['  ]| refrained from any allusion that$6#1$ might endanger its 
309:388,30['  ]| maintenance. They spoke, therefore, of $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's 
309:388,31['  ]| death with mutual forbearance. 
309:388,32['  ]| Short letters from $EM#E$Frank were received at Randall's, 
309:388,33['  ]| communicating all that$6#1$ was immediately important of 
309:388,34['  ]| their state$0$ and plans. 
309:388,34@e   | $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill was better than could 
309:388,35@e   | be expected; and their first removal, on$4$ the departure of 
309:388,36@e   | the funeral for$4$ Yorkshire, was to$9$ be to$4$ the house of a very 
309:388,37@e   | old friend in$4$ Windsor, to$4$ whom$6#1$ $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill had been 
309:388,38@e   | promising a visit$0$ the last$2$ ten years. 
309:388,38@a   | At present$0#1$, there was 
309:389,01@a   | nothing to$9$ be done for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet; good wishes$0$ for$4$ the future 
309:389,02@a   | were all that$6#1$ could yet be possible on$4$ $EM#A$Emma's side$0$. 
309:389,03@a   | It was a more pressing concern$0$ to$9$ show$1$ attention to$4$ 
309:389,04@a   | $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, whose$6#1$ prospects were closing, while$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's 
309:389,05@a   | opened, and whose$6#1$ engagements now allowed of no$2$ delay$0$ 
309:389,06@a   | in$4$ any*one at Highbury, who$6#1$ wished to$9$ show$1$ her kindness 
309:389,07['  ]| ~~ and with $EM#A$Emma it was grown into a first wish$0$. She had 
309:389,08['  ]| scarcely a stronger regret$0$ than for$4$ her past$2$ coldness; and 
309:389,09['  ]| the person, whom$6#1$ she had been so$5#1$ many months neglecting, 
309:389,10['  ]| was now the very one on$4$ whom$6#1$ she would have lavished 
309:389,11['  ]| every distinction of regard$0$ or sympathy. She wanted to$9$ 
309:389,12['  ]| be of use$0$ to$4$ her; wanted to$9$ show$1$ a value$0$ for$4$ her society, 
309:389,13['  ]| and testify respect$0$ and consideration. She resolved to$9$ 
309:389,14['  ]| prevail on$4$ her to$9$ spend a day at Hartfield. A note$0$ was 
309:389,15['  ]| written to$9$ urge it. The invitation was refused, and by$4$ 
309:389,16['  ]| a verbal message. 
309:389,16[J  ]| "$EM#J$Miss*Fairfax was not well$5$ enough to$9$ 
309:389,17[J  ]| write;" 
309:389,17['  ]| and when $EM#W$Mr%*Perry called at Hartfield, the same 
309:389,18['  ]| morning, it appeared that$3$ 
309:389,18@w   | she was so$5#1$ much indisposed as 
309:389,19@w   | to$9$ have been visited, though against her own$2$ consent$0$, by$4$ 
309:389,20@w   | himself, and that$3$ she was suffering under severe headachs, 
309:389,21@w   | and a nervous fever to$4$ a degree, which$6#1$ made him doubt$0$ the 
309:389,22@w   | possibility of her going to$4$ $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge's at the time 
309:389,23@w   | proposed. Her health seemed for$4$ the moment completely 
309:389,24@w   | deranged ~~ appetite quite gone ~~ and though there were 
309:389,25@w   | no$2$ absolutely alarming symptoms, nothing touching the 
309:389,26@w   | pulmonary complaint, which$6#1$ was the standing apprehension 
309:389,27@w   | of the family, $EM#W$Mr%*Perry was uneasy about$4$ her. He 
309:389,28@w   | thought$1$ she had undertaken more than she was equal$2$ to$4$, 
309:389,29@w   | and that$3$ she felt it so$5#2$ herself, though she would not own$1$ it. 
309:389,30@w   | Her spirits seemed overcome. Her present$2$ home, he could 
309:389,31@w   | not but observe, was unfavourable to$4$ a nervous disorder: 
309:389,32@w   | ~~ confined always to$4$ one room; ~~ he could have wished 
309:389,33@w   | it otherwise ~~ and her good aunt, though his very old 
309:389,34@w   | friend, he must acknowledge to$9$ be not the best companion 
309:389,35@w   | for$4$ an invalid of that$6#2$ description. Her care$0$ and attention 
309:389,36@w   | could not be questioned; they were, in$4$ fact, only too$5#1$ 
309:389,37@w   | great. He very much feared that$3$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax derived 
309:389,38@w   | more evil than good from them. 
309:389,38['  ]| $EM#A$Emma listened with the 
309:390,01['  ]| warmest concern$0$; grieved for$4$ her more and more, and 
309:390,02['  ]| looked around$5$ eager to$9$ discover some way of being$1$ useful. 
309:390,03@a   | To$9$ take her ~~ be it only an hour or two ~~ from her aunt, to$9$ 
309:390,04@a   | give her change$0$ of air and scene, and quiet$2$ rational conversation, 
309:390,05@a   | even$5$ for$4$ an hour or two, might do her good; 
309:390,06['  ]| and the following morning she wrote again to$9$ say, in$4$ the 
309:390,07['  ]| most feeling language she could command$1$, that$3$ she would 
309:390,08['  ]| call$1$ for$4$ her in$4$ the carriage at any hour that$6#1$ $EM#J$Jane would 
309:390,09['  ]| name$1$ ~~ mentioning that$3$ she had $EM#W$Mr%*Perry's decided 
309:390,10['  ]| opinion, in$4$ favour$0$ of such exercise$0$ for$4$ his patient. The 
309:390,11['  ]| answer$0$ was only in$4$ this short note$0$: 
309:390,12[J  ]| "$EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's compliments and thanks, but is quite 
309:390,13[J  ]| unequal to$4$ any exercise$0$." 
309:390,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt that$3$ her own$2$ note$0$ had deserved something 
309:390,15['  ]| better; but it was impossible to$9$ quarrel$1$ with words, whose$6#1$ 
309:390,16['  ]| tremulous inequality showed indisposition so$5#1$ plainly, and 
309:390,17['  ]| she thought$1$ only of how she might best counteract this 
309:390,18['  ]| unwillingness to$9$ be seen or assisted. In$4$ spite$8$ of the 
309:390,19['  ]| answer$0$, therefore, she ordered the carriage, and drove 
309:390,20['  ]| to$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's, in$4$ the hope$0$ that$3$ $EM#J$Jane would be induced 
309:390,21['  ]| to$9$ join her ~~ but it would not do; ~~ $EM#D$Miss*Bates came to$4$ 
309:390,22['  ]| the carriage door, all gratitude, and agreeing with her 
309:390,23['  ]| most earnestly in$4$ thinking an airing might be of the 
309:390,24['  ]| greatest service ~~ and every*thing that$6#1$ message could do 
309:390,25['  ]| was tried ~~ but all in$4$ vain. $EM#D$Miss*Bates was obliged to$9$ 
309:390,26['  ]| return$1$ without success; $EM#J$Jane was quite unpersuadable; 
309:390,27['  ]| the mere proposal of going out$5$ seemed to$9$ make$1$ her worse. 
309:390,28['  ]| ~~ $EM#A$Emma wished she could have seen her, and tried her 
309:390,29['  ]| own$2$ powers; but, almost before$3$ she could hint$1$ the wish$0$, 
309:390,30['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates made it appear that$3$ she had promised her niece 
309:390,31['  ]| on$4$ no$2$ account$0$ to$9$ let $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse in$5$. 
309:390,31[D  ]| "Indeed, the 
309:390,32[D  ]| truth was, that$3$ poor dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane could not bear$1$ to$9$ see 
309:390,33[D  ]| anybody ~~ anybody at all ~~ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, indeed, could not 
309:390,34[D  ]| be denied ~~ and $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole had made such a point$0$ ~~ and 
309:390,35[D  ]| $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry had said so$5#1$ much ~~ but, except them, $EM#J$Jane 
309:390,36[D  ]| would really see nobody." 
309:390,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma did not want$1$ to$9$ be classed with the $EM#I$Mrs%*Eltons, 
309:390,38['  ]| the $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perrys, and the $EM#G$Mrs%*Coles, who$6#1$ would force$1$ 
309:391,01['  ]| themselves anywhere; neither could she feel any right$0$ of 
309:391,02['  ]| preference herself ~~ she submitted, therefore, and only 
309:391,03['  ]| questioned $EM#D$Miss*Bates farther as to$4$ her niece's appetite 
309:391,04['  ]| and diet, which$6#1$ she longed to$9$ be able to$9$ assist. On$4$ that$6#2$ 
309:391,05['  ]| subject$0$ poor $EM#D$Miss*Bates was very unhappy, and very 
309:391,06['  ]| communicative; 
309:391,06@d   | $EM#J$Jane would hardly eat any*thing: ~~ $EM#W$Mr%*Perry 
309:391,07@d   | recommended nourishing food; but every*thing 
309:391,08@d   | they could command$1$ (and never had anybody such good 
309:391,09@d   | neighbours) was distasteful. 
309:391,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, on$4$ reaching home, called the housekeeper directly, 
309:391,11['  ]| to$4$ an examination of her stores; and some arrow-root 
309:391,12['  ]| of very superior quality was speedily despatched to$4$ 
309:391,13['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates with a most friendly note$0$. In$4$ half an hour 
309:391,14['  ]| the arrow-root was returned, with a thousand thanks 
309:391,15['  ]| from $EM#D$Miss*Bates, but 
309:391,15[D  ]| "dear$2#1$ $EM#J$Jane would not be satisfied 
309:391,16[D  ]| without its being$1$ sent back$5$; it was a thing she could not 
309:391,17[D  ]| take ~~ and, moreover, she insisted on$4$ her saying, that$3$ she 
309:391,18[D  ]| was not at all in$4$ want$0$ of any*thing." 
309:391,19['  ]| When $EM#A$Emma afterwards heard that$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax had 
309:391,20['  ]| been seen wandering about$4$ the meadows, at some distance$0$ 
309:391,21['  ]| from Highbury, on$4$ the afternoon of the very day on$4$ which$6#1$ 
309:391,22['  ]| she had, under the plea of being$1$ unequal to$4$ any exercise$0$, 
309:391,23['  ]| so$5#1$ peremptorily refused to$9$ go out$5$ with her in$4$ the carriage, 
309:391,24@a   | she could have no$2$ doubt$0$ ~~ putting every*thing together ~~ 
309:391,25@a   | that$3$ $EM#J$Jane was resolved to$9$ receive no$2$ kindness from \her\. 
309:391,26@a   | She was sorry, very sorry. Her heart was grieved for$4$ 
309:391,27@a   | a state$0$ which$6#1$ seemed but the more pitiable from this 
309:391,28@a   | sort of irritation of spirits, inconsistency of action, and 
309:391,29@a   | inequality of powers; and it mortified her that$3$ she was 
309:391,30@a   | given so$5#1$ little credit$0$ for$4$ proper feeling, or esteemed so$5#1$ little 
309:391,31@a   | worthy as a friend: 
309:391,31['  ]| but she had the consolation of knowing 
309:391,32['  ]| that$3$ her intentions were good, and of being$1$ able to$9$ say 
309:391,33['  ]| to$4$ herself, that$3$ 
309:391,33@a   | could $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley have been privy to$4$ all 
309:391,34@a   | her attempts of assisting $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, could he even$5$ 
309:391,35@a   | have seen into her heart, he would not, on$4$ this occasion$0$, 
309:391,36@a   | have found any*thing to$9$ reprove. 
310:392,01['  ]| One morning about$4$ ten days after$4$ $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill's 
310:392,02['  ]| decease, $EM#A$Emma was called down*stairs to$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, 
310:392,03['  ]| who$6#1$ 
310:392,03[N  ]| "could not stay$1$ five minutes, and wanted particularly 
310:392,04[N  ]| to$9$ speak with her." ~~ 
310:392,04['  ]| He met her at the parlour door, and 
310:392,05['  ]| hardly asking her how she did, in$4$ the natural$2$ key of his 
310:392,06['  ]| voice, sunk it immediately, to$9$ say, unheard by$4$ her father, 
310:392,07[N  ]| "Can you come to$4$ Randall's at any time this morning? 
310:392,08[N  ]| ~~ Do, if it be possible. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston wants$1$ to$9$ see you. 
310:392,09[N  ]| She must see you." 
310:392,10[A  ]| "Is she unwell?" 
310:392,11[N  ]| "No$7$, no$7$, not at all ~~ only a little agitated. She would 
310:392,12[N  ]| have ordered the carriage, and come to$4$ you, but she must 
310:392,13[N  ]| see you \alone\, and that$6#2$ you know ~~ 
310:392,13['  ]| (nodding towards her 
310:392,14['  ]| father) 
310:392,14[N  ]| ~~ Humph! ~~ Can you come?" 
310:392,15[A  ]| "Certainly. This moment, if you please. It is impossible 
310:392,16[A  ]| to$9$ refuse what you ask in$4$ such a way. But what can 
310:392,17[A  ]| be the matter? ~~ Is she really not ill?" 
310:392,18[N  ]| "Depend upon$4$ me ~~ but ask no$2$ more questions. You 
310:392,19[N  ]| will$1$ know it all in$4$ time. The most unaccountable business! 
310:392,20[N  ]| But hush, hush!" 
310:392,21['  ]| To$9$ guess$1$ what all this meant, was impossible even$5$ for$4$ 
310:392,22['  ]| $EM#A$Emma. 
310:392,22@a   | Something really important seemed announced 
310:392,23@a   | by$4$ his looks$0$; 
310:392,23['  ]| but, as her friend was well$5$, she endeavoured 
310:392,24['  ]| not to$9$ be uneasy, and settling it with her father, that$3$ she 
310:392,25['  ]| would take her walk$0$ now, she and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston were soon 
310:392,26['  ]| out$5$ of the house together and on$4$ their way at a quick$2$ 
310:392,27['  ]| pace$0$ for$4$ Randall's. 
310:392,28[A  ]| "Now," 
310:392,28['  ]| ~~ said $EM#A$Emma, when they were fairly beyond$4$ 
310:392,29['  ]| the sweep*gates, ~~ 
310:392,29[A  ]| "now $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, do let me know 
310:392,30[A  ]| what has happened." 
310:392,31[N  ]| "No$7$, no$7$," 
310:392,31['  ]| ~~ he gravely replied. ~~ 
310:392,31[N  ]| "Don't ask me. 
310:392,32[N  ]| I promised my wife to$9$ leave$1$ it all to$4$ her. She will$1$ break 
310:393,01[N  ]| it to$4$ you better than I can. Do not be impatient, $EM#A$Emma; 
310:393,02[N  ]| it will$1$ all come out$5$ too$5#1$ soon." 
310:393,03[A  ]| "Break it to$4$ me," 
310:393,03['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, standing still$2$ with 
310:393,04['  ]| terror. ~~ 
310:393,04[A  ]| "Good God! ~~ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, tell me at once. ~~ 
310:393,05[A  ]| Something has happened in$4$ Brunswick*Square. I know 
310:393,06[A  ]| it has. Tell me, I charge$1$ you tell me this moment what 
310:393,07[A  ]| it is." 
310:393,08[N  ]| "No$7$, indeed you are mistaken." ~~ 
310:393,09[A  ]| "$EM#N$Mr%*Weston do not trifle$1$ with me. ~~ Consider how 
310:393,10[A  ]| many of my dearest friends are now in$4$ Brunswick*Square. 
310:393,11[A  ]| Which$6#2$ of them is it? ~~ I charge$1$ you by$4$ all that$6#1$ is sacred, 
310:393,12[A  ]| not to$9$ attempt$1$ concealment." 
310:393,13[N  ]| "Upon$4$ my word, $EM#A$Emma." ~~ 
310:393,14[A  ]| "Your word! ~~ why not your honour$0$! ~~ why not say 
310:393,15[A  ]| upon$4$ your honour$0$, that$3$ it has nothing to$9$ do with any of 
310:393,16[A  ]| them? Good Heavens! ~~ What can be to$9$ be \broke\ to$4$ me, 
310:393,17[A  ]| that$6#1$ does not relate to$4$ one of that$6#2$ family?" 
310:393,18[N  ]| "Upon$4$ my honour$0$," 
310:393,18['  ]| said he very seriously, 
310:393,18[N  ]| "it does 
310:393,19[N  ]| not. It is not in$4$ the smallest degree connected with any 
310:393,20[N  ]| human being$0$ of the name$0$ of $EM#K1$Knightley." 
310:393,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's courage returned, and she walked on$5$. 
310:393,22[N  ]| "I was wrong," 
310:393,22['  ]| he continued, 
310:393,22[N  ]| "in$4$ talking of its being$1$ 
310:393,23[N  ]| \broke\ to$4$ you. I should not have used the expression. In$4$ 
310:393,24[N  ]| fact, it does not concern$1$ you ~~ it concerns$1$ only myself, ~~ 
310:393,25[N  ]| that$6#2$ is, we hope$1$. ~~ Humph! ~~ In$4$ short, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, 
310:393,26[N  ]| there is no$2$ occasion$0$ to$9$ be so$5#1$ uneasy about$4$ it. I don't say 
310:393,27[N  ]| that$3$ it is not a disagreeable business ~~ but things might 
310:393,28[N  ]| be much worse. ~~ If we walk$1$ fast, we shall soon be at 
310:393,29[N  ]| Randall's." 
310:393,30['  ]| $EM#A$Emma found that$3$ she must wait; and now it required 
310:393,31['  ]| little effort. She asked no$2$ more questions therefore, 
310:393,32['  ]| merely employed her own$2$ fancy$0$, and that$6#2$ soon pointed 
310:393,33['  ]| out$5$ to$4$ her 
310:393,33@a   | the probability of its being$1$ some money concern$0$ 
310:393,34@a   | ~~ something just$5$ come to$4$ light$0$, of a disagreeable nature 
310:393,35@a   | in$4$ the circumstances of the family, ~~ something which$6#1$ the 
310:393,36@a   | late event at Richmond had brought forward$5$. 
310:393,36['  ]| Her fancy$0$ 
310:393,37['  ]| was very active. 
310:393,37@a   | Half a dozen natural$2$ children, perhaps ~~ 
310:393,38@a   | and poor $EM#E$Frank cut$1$ off! ~~ This, though very undesirable, 
310:394,01@a   | would be no$2$ matter of agony to$4$ her. 
310:394,01['  ]| It inspired little 
310:394,02['  ]| more than an animating curiosity. 
310:394,03[A  ]| "Who$6#2$ is that$6#2$ gentleman on$4$ horseback?" 
310:394,03['  ]| said she, 
310:394,04['  ]| as they proceeded ~~ speaking more to$9$ assist $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
310:394,05['  ]| in$4$ keeping his secret$0$, than with any other view$0$. 
310:394,06[N  ]| "I do not know. ~~ One of the $EM#ZK6$Otways. ~~ Not $EM#E$Frank; ~~ 
310:394,07[N  ]| it is not $EM#E$Frank, I assure you. You will$1$ not see him. He 
310:394,08[N  ]| is half way to$4$ Windsor by$4$ this time." 
310:394,09[A  ]| "Has your son been with you, then?" 
310:394,10[N  ]| "Oh! yes ~~ did not you know? ~~ Well$7$, well$7$, never 
310:394,11[N  ]| mind$1$." 
310:394,12['  ]| For$4$ a moment he was silent; and then added, in$4$ a tone 
310:394,13['  ]| much more guarded and demure, 
310:394,14[N  ]| "Yes, $EM#E$Frank came over this morning, just$5$ to$9$ ask us 
310:394,15[N  ]| how we did." 
310:394,16['  ]| They hurried on$5$, and were speedily at Randall's. ~~ 
310:394,17[N  ]| "Well$7$, my dear$2#1$," 
310:394,17['  ]| said he, as they entered the room ~~ 
310:394,18[N  ]| "I have brought her, and now I hope$1$ you will$1$ soon be 
310:394,19[N  ]| better. I shall leave$1$ you together. There is no$2$ use$0$ in$4$ 
310:394,20[N  ]| delay$0$. I shall not be far off, if you want$1$ me." 
310:394,20['  ]| ~~ And 
310:394,21['  ]| $EM#A$Emma distinctly heard him add, in$4$ a lower$2$ tone, before$3$ 
310:394,22['  ]| he quitted the room, ~~ 
310:394,22[N  ]| "I have been as good as my word. 
310:394,23[N  ]| She has not the least idea." 
310:394,24['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was looking so$5#1$ ill, and had an air of so$5#1$ 
310:394,25['  ]| much perturbation, that$3$ $EM#A$Emma's uneasiness increased; 
310:394,26['  ]| and the moment they were alone, she eagerly said, 
310:394,27[A  ]| "What is it my dear$2#1$ friend? Something of a very 
310:394,28[A  ]| unpleasant nature, I find, has occurred; ~~ do let me know 
310:394,29[A  ]| directly what it is. I have been walking all this way in$4$ 
310:394,30[A  ]| complete$2$ suspense. We both abhor suspense. Do not let 
310:394,31[A  ]| mine$6$ continue longer. It will$1$ do you good to$9$ speak of your 
310:394,32[A  ]| distress$0$, whatever it may$1$ be." 
310:394,33[O  ]| "Have you indeed no$2$ idea?" 
310:394,33['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston in$4$ 
310:394,34['  ]| a trembling voice. 
310:394,34[O  ]| "Cannot you, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma ~~ 
310:394,35[O  ]| cannot you form$1$ a guess$0$ as to$4$ what you are to$9$ hear?" 
310:394,36[A  ]| "So$5#1$ far as that$3$ it relates to$4$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, I do 
310:394,37[A  ]| guess$1$." 
310:394,38[O  ]| "You are right$2#1$. It does relate to$4$ him, and I will$1$ tell 
310:395,01[O  ]| you directly;" 
310:395,01['  ]| (resuming her work$0$, and seeming resolved 
310:395,02['  ]| against looking up$5$.) 
310:395,02[O  ]| "He has been here this very morning, 
310:395,03[O  ]| on$4$ a most extraordinary errand. It is impossible to$9$ 
310:395,04[O  ]| express$1$ our surprise$0$. He came to$9$ speak to$4$ his father on$4$ 
310:395,05[O  ]| a subject$0$, ~~ to$9$ announce an attachment ~~" 
310:395,06['  ]| She stopped to$9$ breathe. $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ first of herself, 
310:395,07['  ]| and then of $EM#M$Harriet. 
310:395,08[O  ]| "More than an attachment, indeed," 
310:395,08['  ]| resumed $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; 
310:395,09[O  ]| "an engagement ~~ a positive engagement. ~~ 
310:395,10[O  ]| What will$1$ you say, $EM#A$Emma ~~ what will$1$ anybody say, when 
310:395,11[O  ]| it is known that$3$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax are 
310:395,12[O  ]| engaged; ~~ nay, that$3$ they have been long engaged!" 
310:395,13['  ]| $EM#A$Emma even$5$ jumped with surprise$0$; ~~ and, horror-struck, 
310:395,14['  ]| exclaimed, 
310:395,15[A  ]| "$EM#J$Jane*Fairfax! ~~ Good God! You are not serious$2$? 
310:395,16[A  ]| You do not mean$1$ it?" 
310:395,17[O  ]| "You may$1$ well$5$ be amazed," 
310:395,17['  ]| returned $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
310:395,18['  ]| still$5$ averting her eyes, and talking on$5$ with eagerness, that$3$ 
310:395,19['  ]| $EM#A$Emma might have time to$9$ recover ~~ 
310:395,19[O  ]| "You may$1$ well$5$ be 
310:395,20[O  ]| amazed. But it is even$5$ so$5#2$. There has been a solemn 
310:395,21[O  ]| engagement between them ever since October ~~ formed 
310:395,22[O  ]| at Weymouth, and kept a secret$0$ from everybody. Not 
310:395,23[O  ]| a creature knowing it but themselves ~~ neither the $EM#ZC2$Campbells, 
310:395,24[O  ]| nor her family, nor his. ~~ It is so$5#1$ wonderful, that$3$ 
310:395,25[O  ]| though perfectly convinced of the fact, it is yet almost 
310:395,26[O  ]| incredible to$4$ myself. I can hardly believe it. ~~ I thought$1$ 
310:395,27[O  ]| I knew him." 
310:395,28['  ]| $EM#A$Emma scarcely heard what was said. ~~ Her mind$0$ was 
310:395,29['  ]| divided between two ideas ~~ her own$2$ former conversations 
310:395,30['  ]| with him about$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax; and poor $EM#M$Harriet; ~~ 
310:395,31['  ]| and for$4$ some time she could only exclaim, and require 
310:395,32['  ]| confirmation, repeated confirmation. 
310:395,33[A  ]| "Well$7$," 
310:395,33['  ]| said she at last$0$, trying to$9$ recover herself; 
310:395,33[A  ]| "this 
310:395,34[A  ]| is a circumstance which$6#1$ I must think of at least half a day, 
310:395,35[A  ]| before$3$ I can at all comprehend it. What! ~~ engaged 
310:395,36[A  ]| to$4$ her all the winter ~~ before$3$ either of them came to$4$ 
310:395,37[A  ]| Highbury?" 
310:395,38[O  ]| "Engaged since October, ~~ secretly engaged. ~~ It has 
310:396,01[O  ]| hurt me, $EM#A$Emma, very much. It has hurt his father 
310:396,02[O  ]| equally. \Some\ \part$0$\ of his conduct$0$ we cannot excuse$1$." 
310:396,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma pondered a moment, and then replied, 
310:396,03[A  ]| "I will$1$ 
310:396,04[A  ]| not pretend \not\ to$9$ understand you; and to$9$ give you all 
310:396,05[A  ]| the relief in$4$ my power, be assured that$3$ no$2$ such effect$0$ has 
310:396,06[A  ]| followed his attentions to$4$ me, as you are apprehensive 
310:396,07[A  ]| of." 
310:396,08['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston looked up$5$, afraid to$9$ believe; but $EM#A$Emma's 
310:396,09['  ]| countenance was as steady as her words. 
310:396,10[A  ]| "That$3$ you may$1$ have less difficulty in$4$ believing this 
310:396,11[A  ]| boast$0$, of my present$2$ perfect$2$ indifference," 
310:396,11['  ]| she continued, 
310:396,12[A  ]| "I will$1$ farther tell you, that$3$ there was a period in$4$ the 
310:396,13[A  ]| early part$0$ of our acquaintance, when I did like$1$ him, when 
310:396,14[A  ]| I was very much disposed to$9$ be attached to$4$ him ~~ nay, 
310:396,15[A  ]| was attached ~~ and how it came to$9$ cease, is perhaps the 
310:396,16[A  ]| wonder$0$. Fortunately, however, it did cease. I have really 
310:396,17[A  ]| for$4$ some time past$1$, for$4$ at least these three months, cared 
310:396,18[A  ]| nothing about$4$ him. You may$1$ believe me, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
310:396,19[A  ]| This is the simple$2$ truth." 
310:396,20['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston kissed her with tears of joy; and when 
310:396,21['  ]| she could find utterance, assured her, that$3$ 
310:396,21@o   | this protestation 
310:396,22@o   | had done her more good than any*thing else in$4$ the 
310:396,23@o   | world could do. 
310:396,24[O  ]| "$EM#N$Mr%*Weston will$1$ be almost as much relieved as myself," 
310:396,25['  ]| said she. 
310:396,25[O  ]| "On$4$ this point$0$ we have been wretched. It was 
310:396,26[O  ]| our darling wish$0$ that$3$ you might be attached to$4$ each 
310:396,27[O  ]| other ~~ and we were persuaded that$3$ it was so$5#2$. ~~ Imagine 
310:396,28[O  ]| what we have been feeling on$4$ your account$0$." 
310:396,29[A  ]| "I have escaped; and that$3$ I should escape$1$, may$1$ be 
310:396,30[A  ]| a matter of grateful wonder$0$ to$4$ you and myself. But this 
310:396,31[A  ]| does not acquit \him\, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston; and I must say, that$3$ 
310:396,32[A  ]| I think him greatly to$9$ blame$1$. What right$0$ had he to$9$ come 
310:396,33[A  ]| among us with affection and faith engaged, and with 
310:396,34[A  ]| manners so$5#1$ \very\ disengaged? What right$0$ had he to$9$ 
310:396,35[A  ]| endeavour$1$ to$9$ please, as he certainly did ~~ to$9$ distinguish 
310:396,36[A  ]| any one young woman with persevering attention, as he 
310:396,37[A  ]| certainly did ~~ while$3$ he really belonged to$4$ another? ~~ 
310:396,38[A  ]| How could he tell what mischief he might be doing? ~~How 
310:397,01[A  ]| could he tell that$3$ he might not be making me in$4$ love$0$ with 
310:397,02[A  ]| him? ~~ very wrong, very wrong indeed." 
310:397,03[O  ]| "From something that$6#1$ he said, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, I rather 
310:397,04[O  ]| imagine ~~" 
310:397,05[A  ]| "And how could \she\ bear$1$ such behaviour! Composure 
310:397,06[A  ]| with a witness$0$! to$9$ look$1$ on$5$, while$3$ repeated attentions 
310:397,07[A  ]| were offering to$4$ another woman, before$4$ her face$0$, and not 
310:397,08[A  ]| resent it. ~~ That$6#2$ is a degree of placidity, which$6#1$ I can 
310:397,09[A  ]| neither comprehend nor respect$1$." 
310:397,10[O  ]| "There were misunderstandings between them, $EM#A$Emma; 
310:397,11[O  ]| he said so$5#2$ expressly. He had not time to$9$ enter into much 
310:397,12[O  ]| explanation. He was here only a quarter$0#1$ of an hour, and 
310:397,13[O  ]| in$4$ a state$0$ of agitation which$6#1$ did not allow the full use$0$ even$5$ 
310:397,14[O  ]| of the time he could stay$1$ ~~ but that$3$ there had been misunderstandings 
310:397,15[O  ]| he decidedly said. The present$2$ crisis, 
310:397,16[O  ]| indeed, seemed to$9$ be brought on$5$ by$4$ them; and those 
310:397,17[O  ]| misunderstandings might very possibly arise from the 
310:397,18[O  ]| impropriety of his conduct$0$." 
310:397,19[A  ]| "Impropriety! Oh! $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston ~~ it is too$5#1$ calm$2$ 
310:397,20[A  ]| a censure$0$. Much, much beyond$4$ impropriety! ~~ It has 
310:397,21[A  ]| sunk him, I cannot say how it has sunk him in$4$ my opinion. 
310:397,22[A  ]| So$5#1$ unlike what a man should be! ~~ None of that$6#2$ upright 
310:397,23[A  ]| integrity, that$6#2$ strict adherence to$4$ truth and principle, 
310:397,24[A  ]| that$6#2$ disdain$0$ of trick$0$ and littleness, which$6#1$ a man should 
310:397,25[A  ]| display$1$ in$4$ every transaction of his life." 
310:397,26[O  ]| "Nay, dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, now I must take his part$0$; for$3$ 
310:397,27[O  ]| though he has been wrong in$4$ this instance$0$, I have known 
310:397,28[O  ]| him long enough to$9$ answer$1$ for$4$ his having many, very 
310:397,29[O  ]| many, good qualities; and ~~" 
310:397,30[A  ]| "Good God!" 
310:397,30['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, not attending to$4$ her. ~~ 
310:397,31[A  ]| "$EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge, too$5#2$! $EM#J$Jane actually on$4$ the point$0$ of 
310:397,32[A  ]| going as governess! What could he mean$1$ by$4$ such horrible 
310:397,33[A  ]| indelicacy? To$9$ suffer her to$9$ engage herself ~~ to$9$ suffer her 
310:397,34[A  ]| even$5$ to$9$ think of such a measure$0$!" 
310:397,35[O  ]| "He knew nothing about$4$ it, $EM#A$Emma. On$4$ this article 
310:397,36[O  ]| I can fully acquit him. It was a private$2$ resolution of her's, 
310:397,37[O  ]| not communicated to$4$ him ~~ or at least not communicated 
310:397,38[O  ]| in$4$ a way to$9$ carry conviction. ~~ Till yesterday, I know he 
310:398,01[O  ]| said he was in$4$ the dark$0$ as to$4$ her plans. They burst$1$ on$4$ 
310:398,02[O  ]| him, I do not know how, but by$4$ some letter or message ~~ 
310:398,03[O  ]| and it was the discovery of what she was doing, of this 
310:398,04[O  ]| very project of her's, which$6#1$ determined him to$9$ come 
310:398,05[O  ]| forward$5$ at once, own$1$ it all to$4$ his uncle, throw$1$ himself on$4$ 
310:398,06[O  ]| his kindness, and, in$4$ short, put an end$0$ to$4$ the miserable 
310:398,07[O  ]| state$0$ of concealment that$6#1$ had been carrying on$5$ so$5#1$ long." 
310:398,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma began to$9$ listen better. 
310:398,09[O  ]| "I am to$9$ hear from him soon," 
310:398,09['  ]| continued $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
310:398,10[O  ]| "He told me at parting, that$3$ he should soon write; and 
310:398,11[O  ]| he spoke in$4$ a manner which$6#1$ seemed to$9$ promise$1$ me many 
310:398,12[O  ]| particulars that$6#1$ could not be given now. Let us wait, 
310:398,13[O  ]| therefore, for$4$ this letter. It may$1$ bring many extenuations. 
310:398,14[O  ]| It may$1$ make$1$ many things intelligible and excusable which$6#1$ 
310:398,15[O  ]| now are not to$9$ be understood. Don't let us be severe, 
310:398,16[O  ]| don't let us be in$4$ a hurry$0$ to$9$ condemn him. Let us have 
310:398,17[O  ]| patience. I must love$1$ him; and now that$3$ I am satisfied 
310:398,18[O  ]| on$4$ one point$0$, the one material$2$ point$0$, I am sincerely 
310:398,19[O  ]| anxious for$4$ its all turning out$5$ well$5$, and ready to$9$ hope$1$ that$3$ 
310:398,20[O  ]| it may$1$. They must both have suffered a great deal$0$ under 
310:398,21[O  ]| such a system of secresy and concealment." 
310:398,22[A  ]| "\His\ sufferings," 
310:398,22['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma drily, 
310:398,22[A  ]| "do not appear 
310:398,23[A  ]| to$9$ have done him much harm$0$. Well$7$, and how did $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill 
310:398,24[A  ]| take it?" 
310:398,25[O  ]| "Most favourably for$4$ his nephew ~~ gave his consent$0$ 
310:398,26[O  ]| with scarcely a difficulty. Conceive what the events of 
310:398,27[O  ]| a week have done in$4$ that$6#2$ family! While$3$ poor $EM#V$Mrs%*Churchill 
310:398,28[O  ]| lived, I suppose there could not have been

310:398,30[O  ]| remains$0$ at rest$0#2$ in$4$ the family vault, than her husband is 
310:398,31[O  ]| persuaded to$9$ act$1$ exactly opposite to$4$ what she would have 
310:398,32[O  ]| required. What a blessing it is, when undue influence$0$ 
310:398,33[O  ]| does not survive the grave$0$! ~~ He gave his consent$0$ with 
310:398,34[O  ]| very little persuasion." 
310:398,35@a   | "Ah!" 
310:398,35['  ]| thought$1$ $EM#A$Emma, 
310:398,35@a   | "he would have done as much 
310:398,36@a   | for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet." 
310:398,37[O  ]| "This was settled last$2$ night, and $EM#E$Frank was off with the 
310:398,38[O  ]| light$0$ this morning. He stopped at Highbury, at the 
310:399,01[O  ]| $EM#C1$Bates's, I fancy$1$, some time ~~ and then came on$5$ hither; 
310:399,02[O  ]| but was in$4$ such a hurry$0$ to$9$ get back$5$ to$4$ his uncle, to$4$ whom$6#1$ 
310:399,03[O  ]| he is just$5$ now more necessary than ever, that$3$, as I tell you, 
310:399,04[O  ]| he could stay$1$ with us but a quarter$0#1$ of an hour. ~~ He was 
310:399,05[O  ]| very much agitated ~~ very much, indeed ~~ to$4$ a degree 
310:399,06[O  ]| that$6#1$ made him appear quite a different creature from any*thing 
310:399,07[O  ]| I had ever seen him before$5$. ~~ In$4$ addition to$4$ all the rest$0#1$, 
310:399,08[O  ]| there had been the shock$0$ of finding her so$5#1$ very unwell, 
310:399,09[O  ]| which$6#1$ he had had no$2$ previous suspicion of ~~ and there was 
310:399,10[O  ]| every appearance of his having been feeling a great deal$0$." 
310:399,11[A  ]| "And do you really believe the affair to$9$ have been 
310:399,12[A  ]| carrying on$5$ with such perfect$2$ secresy? ~~ The $EM#ZC2$Campbells, 
310:399,13[A  ]| the $EM#ZF2$Dixons, did none of them know of the engagement?" 
310:399,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not speak the name$0$ of $EM#ZF$Dixon without a little 
310:399,15['  ]| blush$0$. 
310:399,16[O  ]| "None; not one. He positively said that$3$ it had been 
310:399,17[O  ]| known to$4$ no$2$ being$0$ in$4$ the world but their two selves." 
310:399,18[A  ]| "Well$7$," 
310:399,18['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
310:399,18[A  ]| "I suppose we shall gradually 
310:399,19[A  ]| grow reconciled to$4$ the idea, and I wish$1$ them very happy. 
310:399,20[A  ]| But I shall always think it a very abominable sort of 
310:399,21[A  ]| proceeding. What has it been but a system of hypocrisy 
310:399,22[A  ]| and deceit, ~~ espionage, and treachery? ~~ To$9$ come among 
310:399,23[A  ]| us with professions of openness and simplicity; and such 
310:399,24[A  ]| a league in$4$ secret$0$ to$9$ judge$1$ us all! ~~ Here have we been, the 
310:399,25[A  ]| whole$2$ winter and spring$0$, completely duped, fancying 
310:399,26[A  ]| ourselves all on$4$ an equal$2$ footing of truth and honour$0$, with 
310:399,27[A  ]| two people in$4$ the midst of us who$6#1$ may$1$ have been carrying 
310:399,28[A  ]| round$5$, comparing and sitting in$4$ judgment on$4$ sentiments 
310:399,29[A  ]| and words that$6#1$ were never meant for$4$ both to$9$ hear. ~~ They 
310:399,30[A  ]| must take the consequence, if they have heard each other 
310:399,31[A  ]| spoken of in$4$ a way not perfectly agreeable!" 
310:399,32[O  ]| "I am quite easy on$4$ that$6#2$ head$0$," 
310:399,32['  ]| replied $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
310:399,33[O  ]| "I am very sure that$3$ I never said any*thing of either to$4$ 
310:399,34[O  ]| the other, which$6#1$ both might not have heard." 
310:399,35[A  ]| "You are in$4$ luck. ~~ Your only blunder$0$ was confined to$4$ 
310:399,36[A  ]| my ear, when you imagined a certain friend of our's in$4$ love$0$ 
310:399,37[A  ]| with the lady." 
310:399,38[O  ]| "True. But as I have always had a thoroughly good 
310:400,01[O  ]| opinion of $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, I never could, under any blunder$0$, 
310:400,02[O  ]| have spoken ill of her; and as to$4$ speaking ill of him, 
310:400,03[O  ]| there I have been safe." 
310:400,04['  ]| At this moment $EM#N$Mr%*Weston appeared at a little distance$0$ 
310:400,05['  ]| from the window, evidently on$4$ the watch$0$. His wife gave 
310:400,06['  ]| him a look$0$ which$6#1$ invited him in$5$; and, while$3$ he was 
310:400,07['  ]| coming round$5$, added, 
310:400,07[O  ]| "Now, dearest $EM#A$Emma, let me 
310:400,08[O  ]| intreat you to$9$ say and look$1$ every*thing that$6#1$ may$1$ set$1$ his 
310:400,09[O  ]| heart at ease$0$, and incline him to$9$ be satisfied with the 
310:400,10[O  ]| match$0$. Let us make$1$ the best of it ~~ and, indeed, almost 
310:400,11[O  ]| every*thing may$1$ be fairly said in$4$ her favour$0$. It is not 
310:400,12[O  ]| a connexion to$9$ gratify; but if $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill does not feel 
310:400,13[O  ]| that$6#2$, why should we? and it may$1$ be a very fortunate 
310:400,14[O  ]| circumstance for$4$ him, for$4$ $EM#E$Frank, I mean$1$, that$3$ he should 
310:400,15[O  ]| have attached himself to$4$ a girl of such steadiness of 
310:400,16[O  ]| character and good judgment as I have always given her 
310:400,17[O  ]| credit$0$ for$4$ ~~ and still$5$ am disposed to$9$ give her credit$0$ for$4$, in$4$ 
310:400,18[O  ]| spite$8$ of this one great deviation from the strict rule of 
310:400,19[O  ]| right$0$. And how much may$1$ be said in$4$ her situation for$4$ 
310:400,20[O  ]| even$5$ that$6#2$ error!" 
310:400,21[A  ]| "Much indeed!" 
310:400,21['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, feelingly. 
310:400,21[A  ]| "If a 
310:400,22[A  ]| woman can ever be excused for$4$ thinking only of herself, it is 
310:400,23[A  ]| in$4$ a situation like$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's. ~~ Of such, one may$1$ almost 
310:400,24[A  ]| say, that$3$ 
310:400,24@z   | ""the world is not their's, nor the world's law."" " 
310:400,25['  ]| She met $EM#N$Mr%*Weston on$4$ his entrance, with a smiling 
310:400,26['  ]| countenance, exclaiming, 
310:400,27[A  ]| "A very pretty$2$ trick$0$ you have been playing me, upon$4$ 
310:400,28[A  ]| my word! This was a device, I suppose, to$9$ sport$1$ with my 
310:400,29[A  ]| curiosity, and exercise$1$ my talent of guessing. But you 
310:400,30[A  ]| really frightened me. I thought$1$ you had lost half your 
310:400,31[A  ]| property, at least. And here, instead of its being$1$ a matter 
310:400,32[A  ]| of condolence, it turns$1$ out$5$ to$9$ be one of congratulation. ~~ 
310:400,33[A  ]| I congratulate you, $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, with all my heart, on$4$ the 
310:400,34[A  ]| prospect of having one of the most lovely and accomplished 
310:400,35[A  ]| young women in$4$ England for$4$ your daughter." 
310:400,36['  ]| A glance$0$ or two between him and his wife, convinced 
310:400,37['  ]| him that$3$ all was as right$2#1$ as this speech proclaimed; and 
310:400,38['  ]| its happy effect$0$ on$4$ his spirits was immediate. His air and 
310:401,01['  ]| voice recovered their usual briskness: he shook her 
310:401,02['  ]| heartily and gratefully by$4$ the hand$0$, and entered on$4$ the 
310:401,03['  ]| subject$0$ in$4$ a manner to$9$ prove, that$3$ he now only wanted 
310:401,04['  ]| time and persuasion to$9$ think the engagement no$2$ very bad 
310:401,05['  ]| thing. His companions suggested only what could palliate 
310:401,06['  ]| imprudence, or smooth$1$ objections; and by$4$ the time they 
310:401,07['  ]| had talked it all over together, and he had talked it all 
310:401,08['  ]| over again with $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ their walk$0$ back$5$ to$4$ Hartfield, he 
310:401,09['  ]| was become perfectly reconciled, and not far from thinking 
310:401,10['  ]| it the very best thing that$6#1$ $EM#E$Frank could possibly have done. 
311:402,01@a   | "$EM#M$Harriet, poor $EM#M$Harriet!" ~~ 
311:402,01['  ]| Those were the words; 
311:402,02['  ]| in$4$ them lay$1#2$ the tormenting ideas which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma could not 
311:402,03['  ]| get rid of, and which$6#1$ constituted the real misery of the 
311:402,04['  ]| business to$4$ her. 
311:402,04@a   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had behaved very ill 
311:402,05@a   | by$4$ herself ~~ very ill in$4$ many ways, ~~ but it was not so$5#1$ 
311:402,06@a   | much \his\ behaviour as her \own$2$\, which$6#1$ made her so$5#1$ angry 
311:402,07@a   | with him. It was the scrape which$6#1$ he had drawn her into 
311:402,08@a   | on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's account$0$, that$6#1$ gave the deepest hue to$4$ his 
311:402,09@a   | offence. ~~ Poor $EM#M$Harriet! to$9$ be a second$2$ time the dupe$0$ of 
311:402,10@a   | her misconceptions and flattery. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had 
311:402,11@a   | spoken prophetically, when he once said, 
311:402,11@b   | "$EM#A$Emma, you 
311:402,12@b   | have been no$2$ friend to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith." 
311:402,12@a   | ~~ She was afraid 
311:402,13@a   | she had done her nothing but disservice. ~~ It was true that$3$ 
311:402,14@a   | she had not to$9$ charge$1$ herself, in$4$ this instance$0$ as in$4$ the 
311:402,15@a   | former, with being$1$ the sole and original author of the 
311:402,16@a   | mischief; with having suggested such feelings as might 
311:402,17@a   | otherwise never have entered $EM#M$Harriet's imagination; for$3$ 
311:402,18@a   | $EM#M$Harriet had acknowledged her admiration and preference 
311:402,19@a   | of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill before$3$ she had ever given her a hint$0$ on$4$ 
311:402,20@a   | the subject$0$; but she felt completely guilty of having 
311:402,21@a   | encouraged what she might have repressed. She might 
311:402,22@a   | have prevented the indulgence and increase$0$ of such 
311:402,23@a   | sentiments. Her influence$0$ would have been enough. And 
311:402,24@a   | now she was very conscious that$3$ she ought to$9$ have prevented 
311:402,25@a   | them. ~~ She felt that$3$ she had been risking her 
311:402,26@a   | friend's happiness on$4$ most insufficient grounds. Common$2$ 
311:402,27@a   | sense would have directed her to$9$ tell $EM#M$Harriet, that$3$ she 
311:402,28@a   | must not allow herself to$9$ think of him, and that$3$ there were 
311:402,29@a   | five hundred chances to$4$ one against his ever caring for$4$ 
311:402,30@a   | her. ~~ 
311:402,30[A  ]| "But, with common$2$ sense," 
311:402,30['  ]| she added, 
311:402,30[A  ]| "I am 
311:402,31[A  ]| afraid I have had little to$9$ do." 
311:402,32@a   | She was extremely angry with herself. If she could 
311:403,01@a   | not have been angry with $EM#E$Frank*Churchill too$5#2$, it would 
311:403,02@a   | have been dreadful. ~~ As for$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, she might at 
311:403,03@a   | least relieve her feelings from any present$2$ solicitude on$4$ her 
311:403,04@a   | account$0$. $EM#M$Harriet would be anxiety enough; she need$1$ no$2$ 
311:403,05@a   | longer be unhappy about$4$ $EM#J$Jane, whose$6#1$ troubles and whose$6#1$ 
311:403,06@a   | ill*health having, of course$8$, the same origin, must be 
311:403,07@a   | equally under cure$0$. ~~ Her days of insignificance and evil 
311:403,08@a   | were over. ~~ She would soon be well$5$, and happy, and 
311:403,09@a   | prosperous. ~~ 
311:403,09['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could now imagine why her own$2$ 
311:403,10['  ]| attentions had been slighted. 
311:403,10@a   | This discovery laid many 
311:403,11@a   | smaller matters open$2$. No$2$ doubt$0$ it had been from jealousy. 
311:403,12@a   | ~~ In$4$ $EM#J$Jane's eyes she had been a rival; and well$5$ might 
311:403,13@a   | any*thing she could offer$1$ of assistance or regard$0$ be 
311:403,14@a   | repulsed. An airing in$4$ the Hartfield carriage would have 
311:403,15@a   | been the rack, and arrow-root from the Hartfield store-room 
311:403,16@a   | must have been poison. 
311:403,16['  ]| She understood it all; and 
311:403,17['  ]| as far as her mind$0$ could disengage itself from the injustice 
311:403,18['  ]| and selfishness of angry feelings, she acknowledged that$3$ 
311:403,19@a   | $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax would have neither elevation nor happiness 
311:403,20@a   | beyond$4$ her desert$0$. But poor $EM#M$Harriet was such an engrossing 
311:403,21@a   | charge$0$! There was little sympathy to$9$ be spared for$4$ 
311:403,22@a   | any*body else. $EM#A$Emma was sadly fearful that$3$ this second$2$ 
311:403,23@a   | disappointment would be more severe than the first. 
311:403,24@a   | Considering the very superior claims of the object$0$, it 
311:403,25@a   | ought; and judging by$4$ its apparently stronger effect$0$ on$4$ 
311:403,26@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's mind$0$, producing reserve$0$ and self-command, it 
311:403,27@a   | would. ~~ She must communicate the painful truth, 
311:403,28@a   | however, and as soon as possible. An injunction of 
311:403,29@a   | secresy had been among $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's parting words. 
311:403,30[N  ]| "For$4$ the present$0#1$, the whole$2$ affair was to$9$ be completely 
311:403,31[N  ]| a secret$0$. $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill had made a point$0$ of it, as a token 
311:403,32[N  ]| of respect$0$ to$4$ the wife he had so$5#1$ very recently lost; and 
311:403,33[N  ]| everybody admitted it to$9$ be no$2$ more than due$2$ decorum." ~~ 
311:403,34['  ]| $EM#A$Emma had promised; 
311:403,34@a   | but still$5$ $EM#M$Harriet must be excepted. 
311:403,35@a   | It was her superior duty. 
311:403,36['  ]| In$4$ spite$8$ of her vexation, she could not help$1$ feeling it 
311:403,37@a   | almost ridiculous, that$3$ she should have the very same 
311:403,38@a   | distressing and delicate office to$9$ perform by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, which$6#1$ 
311:404,01@a   | $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had just$5$ gone through$5$ by$4$ herself. The 
311:404,02@a   | intelligence, which$6#1$ had been so$5#1$ anxiously announced to$4$ 
311:404,03@a   | her, she was now to$9$ be anxiously announcing to$4$ another. 
311:404,04['  ]| Her heart beat quick$2$ on$4$ hearing $EM#M$Harriet's footstep and 
311:404,05['  ]| voice; 
311:404,05@a   | so$5#2$, she supposed, had poor $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston felt when 
311:404,06@a   | \she\ was approaching Randall's. Could the event of the 
311:404,07@a   | disclosure bear$1$ an equal$2$ resemblance! ~~ But of that$6#2$, 
311:404,08@a   | unfortunately, there could be no$2$ chance$0$. 
311:404,09[M  ]| "Well$7$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse!" 
311:404,09['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet, coming 
311:404,10['  ]| eagerly into the room ~~ 
311:404,10[M  ]| "is not this the oddest news that$6#1$ 
311:404,11[M  ]| ever was?" 
311:404,12[A  ]| "What news do you mean$1$?" 
311:404,12['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma, unable 
311:404,13['  ]| to$9$ guess$1$, by$4$ look$0$ or voice, whether $EM#M$Harriet could indeed 
311:404,14['  ]| have received any hint$0$. 
311:404,15[M  ]| "About$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. Did you ever hear any*thing 
311:404,16[M  ]| so$5#1$ strange? Oh! ~~ you need$1$ not be afraid of owning it 
311:404,17[M  ]| to$4$ me, for$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston has told me himself. I met him 
311:404,18[M  ]| just$5$ now. He told me it was to$9$ be a great secret$0$; and, 
311:404,19[M  ]| therefore, I should not think of mentioning it to$4$ any*body 
311:404,20[M  ]| but you, but he said you knew it." 
311:404,21[A  ]| "What did $EM#N$Mr%*Weston tell you?" ~~ 
311:404,21['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, still$5$ 
311:404,22['  ]| perplexed. 
311:404,23[M  ]| "Oh! he told me all about$4$ it; that$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax and 
311:404,24[M  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill are to$9$ be married, and that$3$ they have 
311:404,25[M  ]| been privately engaged to$4$ one another this long while$0$. 
311:404,26[M  ]| How very odd!" 
311:404,27@a   | It was, indeed, so$5#1$ odd; 
311:404,27['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet's behaviour was so$5#1$ 
311:404,28['  ]| extremely odd, that$3$ $EM#A$Emma did not know how to$9$ understand 
311:404,29['  ]| it. 
311:404,29@a   | Her character appeared absolutely changed. 
311:404,30@a   | She seemed to$9$ propose showing no$2$ agitation, or disappointment, 
311:404,31@a   | or peculiar concern$0$ in$4$ the discovery. 
311:404,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma looked 
311:404,32['  ]| at her, quite unable to$9$ speak. 
311:404,33[M  ]| "Had you any idea," 
311:404,33['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet, 
311:404,33[M  ]| "of his being$1$ in$4$ 
311:404,34[M  ]| love$0$ with her? ~~ You, perhaps, might. ~~ You 
311:404,34['  ]| (blushing as 
311:404,35['  ]| she spoke) 
311:404,35[M  ]| who$6#1$ can see into everybody's heart; but 
311:404,36[M  ]| nobody else ~~" 
311:404,37[A  ]| "Upon$4$ my word," 
311:404,37['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
311:404,37[A  ]| "I begin to$9$ doubt$1$ my 
311:404,38[A  ]| having any such talent. Can you seriously ask me, $EM#M$Harriet, 
311:405,01[A  ]| whether I imagined him attached to$4$ another woman at 
311:405,02[A  ]| the very time that$6#1$ I was ~~ tacitly, if not openly ~~ encouraging 
311:405,03[A  ]| you to$9$ give way to$4$ your own$2$ feelings? ~~ I never 
311:405,04[A  ]| had the slightest suspicion, till within the last$2$ hour, of 
311:405,05[A  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill's having the least regard$0$ for$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. 
311:405,06[A  ]| You may$1$ be very sure that$3$ if I had, I should 
311:405,07[A  ]| have cautioned you accordingly." 
311:405,08[M  ]| "Me!" 
311:405,08['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet, colouring, and astonished. 
311:405,09[M  ]| "Why should you caution$1$ me? ~~ You do not think I care$1$ 
311:405,10[M  ]| about$4$ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill." 
311:405,11[A  ]| "I am delighted to$9$ hear you speak so$5#1$ stoutly on$4$ the 
311:405,12[A  ]| subject$0$," 
311:405,12['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma, smiling; 
311:405,12[A  ]| "but you do not mean$1$ 
311:405,13[A  ]| to$9$ deny that$3$ there was a time ~~ and not very distant either 
311:405,14[A  ]| ~~ when you gave me reason$0$ to$9$ understand that$3$ you did 
311:405,15[A  ]| care$1$ about$4$ him?" 
311:405,16[M  ]| "Him! ~~ never, never. Dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, how 
311:405,17[M  ]| could you so$5#2$ mistake$1$ me?" 
311:405,17['  ]| turning away distressed. 
311:405,18[A  ]| "$EM#M$Harriet!" 
311:405,18['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, after$4$ a moment's pause$0$ ~~ 
311:405,19[A  ]| "What do you mean$1$? ~~ Good Heaven! what do you 
311:405,20[A  ]| mean$1$? ~~ Mistake$1$ you! ~~ Am I to$9$ suppose then? ~~" 
311:405,21['  ]| She could not speak another word. ~~ Her voice was 
311:405,22['  ]| lost; and she sat down$5$, waiting in$4$ great terror till $EM#M$Harriet 
311:405,23['  ]| should answer$1$. 
311:405,24['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, who$6#1$ was standing at some distance$0$, and with 
311:405,25['  ]| face$0$ turned from her, did not immediately say any*thing; 
311:405,26['  ]| and when she did speak, it was in$4$ a voice nearly as agitated 
311:405,27['  ]| as $EM#A$Emma's. 
311:405,28[M  ]| "I should not have thought$1$ it possible," 
311:405,28['  ]| she began, 
311:405,29[M  ]| "that$3$ you could have misunderstood me! I know we 
311:405,30[M  ]| agreed never to$9$ name$1$ him ~~ but considering how infinitely 
311:405,31[M  ]| superior he is to$4$ every*body else, I should not have 
311:405,32[M  ]| thought$1$ it possible that$3$ I could be supposed to$9$ mean$1$ any 
311:405,33[M  ]| other person. $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, indeed! I do not 
311:405,34[M  ]| know who$6#1$ would ever look$1$ at him in$4$ the company of the 
311:405,35[M  ]| other. I hope$1$ I have a better taste than to$9$ think of 
311:405,36[M  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill, who$6#1$ is like$4$ nobody by$4$ his side$0$. And 
311:405,37[M  ]| that$3$ you should have been so$5#1$ mistaken, is amazing! ~~ I am 
311:405,38[M  ]| sure, but for$4$ believing that$3$ you entirely approved and 
311:406,01[M  ]| meant to$9$ encourage me in$4$ my attachment, I should have 
311:406,02[M  ]| considered it at first too$5#1$ great a presumption almost, to$9$ 
311:406,03[M  ]| dare$1#1$ to$9$ think of him. At first, if you had not told me that$3$ 
311:406,04[M  ]| more wonderful things had happened; that$3$ there had 
311:406,05[M  ]| been matches of greater disparity (those were your very 
311:406,06[M  ]| words); ~~ I should not have dared to$9$ give way to$4$ ~~ 
311:406,07[M  ]| I should not have thought$1$ it possible ~~ But if \you\, who$6#1$ 
311:406,08[M  ]| had been always acquainted with him ~~" 
311:406,09[A  ]| "$EM#M$Harriet!" 
311:406,09['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, collecting herself resolutely ~~ 
311:406,10[A  ]| "Let us understand each other now, without the possibility 
311:406,11[A  ]| of farther mistake$0$. Are you speaking of ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley?" 
311:406,12[A  ]| 
311:406,13[M  ]| "To$9$ be sure I am. I never could have an idea of any*body 
311:406,14[M  ]| else ~~ and so$3$ I thought$1$ you knew. When we talked 
311:406,15[M  ]| about$4$ him, it was clear$2$ as possible." 
311:406,16[A  ]| "Not quite," 
311:406,16['  ]| returned $EM#A$Emma, with forced calmness, 
311:406,17[A  ]| "for$3$ all that$6#1$ you then said, appeared to$4$ me to$9$ relate to$4$ 
311:406,18[A  ]| a different person. I could almost assert that$3$ you had 
311:406,19[A  ]| \named\ $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill. I am sure the service 
311:406,20[A  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill rendered you, in$4$ protecting you 
311:406,21[A  ]| from the gipsies, was spoken of." 
311:406,22[M  ]| "Oh! $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, how you do forget!" 
311:406,23[A  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#M$Harriet, I perfectly remember the substance 
311:406,24[A  ]| of what I said on$4$ the occasion$0$. I told you that$3$ I did not 
311:406,25[A  ]| wonder$1$ at your attachment; that$3$ considering the service 
311:406,26[A  ]| he had rendered you, it was extremely natural$2$: ~~ and you 
311:406,27[A  ]| agreed to$4$ it, expressing yourself very warmly as to$4$ your 
311:406,28[A  ]| sense of that$6#2$ service, and mentioning even$5$ what your 
311:406,29[A  ]| sensations had been in$4$ seeing him come forward$5$ to$4$ your 
311:406,30[A  ]| rescue$0$. ~~ The impression of it is strong on$4$ my memory." 
311:406,31[M  ]| "Oh, dear$7$," 
311:406,31['  ]| cried $EM#M$Harriet, 
311:406,31[M  ]| "now I recollect what you 
311:406,32[M  ]| mean$1$; but I was thinking of something very different at 
311:406,33[M  ]| the time. It was not the gipsies ~~ it was not $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill 
311:406,34[M  ]| that$6#1$ I meant. No$7$! 
311:406,34['  ]| (with some elevation) 
311:406,34[M  ]| I was 
311:406,35[M  ]| thinking of a much more precious circumstance ~~ of 
311:406,36[M  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's coming and asking me to$9$ dance$1$, when 
311:406,37[M  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton would not stand$1$ up$5$ with me; and when there 
311:406,38[M  ]| was no$2$ other partner in$4$ the room. That$6#2$ was the kind$2$ 
311:407,01[M  ]| action; that$6#2$ was the noble benevolence and generosity; 
311:407,02[M  ]| that$6#2$ was the service which$6#1$ made me begin to$9$ feel how 
311:407,03[M  ]| superior he was to$4$ every other being$0$ upon$4$ earth." 
311:407,04[A  ]| "Good God!" 
311:407,04['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, 
311:407,04[A  ]| "this has been a most 
311:407,05[A  ]| unfortunate ~~ most deplorable mistake$0$! ~~ What is to$9$ be 
311:407,06[A  ]| done?" 
311:407,07[M  ]| "You would not have encouraged me, then, if you had 
311:407,08[M  ]| understood me. At least, however, I cannot be worse off 
311:407,09[M  ]| than I should have been, if the other had been the person; 
311:407,10[M  ]| and now ~~ it \is\ possible ~~." 
311:407,11['  ]| She paused a few moments. $EM#A$Emma could not speak. 
311:407,12[M  ]| "I do not wonder$1$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
311:407,12['  ]| she resumed, 
311:407,13[M  ]| "that$3$ you should feel a great difference between the two, 
311:407,14[M  ]| as to$4$ me or as to$4$ anybody. You must think one five 
311:407,15[M  ]| hundred million times more above$4$ me than the other. 
311:407,16[M  ]| But I hope$1$, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, that$3$ supposing ~~ that$3$ if ~~ 
311:407,17[M  ]| strange as it may$1$ appear ~~. But you know they were 
311:407,18[M  ]| your own$2$ words, that$3$ \more\ wonderful things had happened, 
311:407,19[M  ]| matches of \greater\ disparity had taken place$0$ than between 
311:407,20[M  ]| $EM#E$Mr%*Frank*Churchill and me; and, therefore, it seems as 
311:407,21[M  ]| if such a thing even$5$ as this, may$1$ have occurred before$5$ ~~ 
311:407,22[M  ]| and if I should be so$5#1$ fortunate, beyond$4$ expression, as to$9$ ~~ 
311:407,23[M  ]| if $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley should really ~~ if \he\ does not mind$1$ the 
311:407,24[M  ]| disparity, I hope$1$, dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you will$1$ not set$1$ 
311:407,25[M  ]| yourself against it, and try to$9$ put difficulties in$4$ the way. 
311:407,26[M  ]| But you are too$5#1$ good for$4$ that$6#2$, I am sure." 
311:407,27['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was standing at one of the windows. $EM#A$Emma 
311:407,28['  ]| turned round$5$ to$9$ look$1$ at her in$4$ consternation, and hastily 
311:407,29['  ]| said, 
311:407,30[A  ]| "Have you any idea of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's returning your 
311:407,31[A  ]| affection?" 
311:407,32[M  ]| "Yes," 
311:407,32['  ]| replied $EM#M$Harriet modestly, but not fearfully ~~ 
311:407,33[M  ]| "I must say that$3$ I have." 
311:407,34['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's eyes were instantly withdrawn; and she sat 
311:407,35['  ]| silently meditating, in$4$ a fixed attitude, for$4$ a few minutes. 
311:407,36['  ]| A few minutes were sufficient for$4$ making her acquainted 
311:407,37['  ]| with her own$2$ heart. A mind$0$ like$4$ her's, once opening to$4$ 
311:407,38['  ]| suspicion, made rapid progress. She touched ~~ she 
311:408,01['  ]| admitted ~~ she acknowledged the whole$2$ truth. 
311:408,01@a   | Why was 
311:408,02@a   | it so$5#1$ much worse that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet should be in$4$ love$0$ with 
311:408,03@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, than with $EM#E$Frank*Churchill? Why was the 
311:408,04@a   | evil so$5#1$ dreadfully increased by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's having some 
311:408,05@a   | hope$0$ of a return$0$? 
311:408,05['  ]| It darted through$4$ her, with the speed 
311:408,06['  ]| of an arrow, that$3$ 
311:408,06@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley must marry no*one but 
311:408,07@a   | herself! 
311:408,08['  ]| Her own$2$ conduct$0$, as well$5$ as her own$2$ heart, was before$4$ 
311:408,09['  ]| her in$4$ the same few minutes. She saw it all with a clearness 
311:408,10['  ]| which$6#1$ had never blessed her before$5$. 
311:408,10@a   | How improperly had 
311:408,11@a   | she been acting by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet! How inconsiderate, how 
311:408,12@a   | indelicate, how irrational, how unfeeling had been her 
311:408,13@a   | conduct$0$! What blindness, what madness, had led her on$5$! 
311:408,14['  ]| It struck her with dreadful force$0$, and she was ready to$9$ give 
311:408,15['  ]| it every bad name$0$ in$4$ the world. Some portion of respect$0$ 
311:408,16['  ]| for$4$ herself, however, in$4$ spite$8$ of all these demerits ~~ some 
311:408,17['  ]| concern$0$ for$4$ her own$2$ appearance, and a strong sense of 
311:408,18['  ]| justice by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet ~~ 
311:408,18@a   | (there would be no$2$ need$0$ of \compassion\ 
311:408,19@a   | to$4$ the girl who$6#1$ believed herself loved by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley ~~ 
311:408,20@a   | but justice required that$3$ she should not be made unhappy 
311:408,21@a   | by$4$ any coldness now,) 
311:408,21['  ]| gave $EM#A$Emma the resolution to$9$ sit 
311:408,22['  ]| and endure farther with calmness, with even$5$ apparent 
311:408,23['  ]| kindness. ~~ 
311:408,23@a   | For$4$ her own$2$ advantage indeed, it was fit$2$ that$3$ 
311:408,24@a   | the utmost extent of $EM#M$Harriet's hopes$0$ should be enquired 
311:408,25@a   | into; and $EM#M$Harriet had done nothing to$9$ forfeit the regard$0$ 
311:408,26@a   | and interest$0$ which$6#1$ had been so$5#1$ voluntarily formed and 
311:408,27@a   | maintained ~~ or to$9$ deserve to$9$ be slighted by$4$ the person 
311:408,28@a   | whose$6#1$ counsels had never led her right$2#1$. ~~ 
311:408,28['  ]| Rousing from 
311:408,29['  ]| reflection, therefore, and subduing her emotion, she turned 
311:408,30['  ]| to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet again, and, in$4$ a more inviting accent, renewed 
311:408,31['  ]| the conversation; for$3$ as to$4$ the subject$0$ which$6#1$ had first 
311:408,32['  ]| introduced it, the wonderful story of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, that$6#2$ 
311:408,33['  ]| was quite sunk and lost. ~~ Neither of them thought$1$ but 
311:408,34['  ]| of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and themselves. 
311:408,35['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, who$6#1$ had been standing in$4$ no$2$ unhappy reverie, 
311:408,36['  ]| was yet very glad to$9$ be called from it, by$4$ the now encouraging 
311:408,37['  ]| manner of such a judge$0$, and such a friend as 
311:408,38['  ]| $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, and only wanted invitation, to$9$ give the 
311:409,01['  ]| history of her hopes$0$ with great, though trembling delight$0$. 
311:409,02['  ]| ~~ $EM#A$Emma's tremblings as she asked, and as she listened, 
311:409,03['  ]| were better concealed than $EM#M$Harriet's, but they were not 
311:409,04['  ]| less. Her voice was not unsteady; but her mind$0$ was in$4$ 
311:409,05['  ]| all the perturbation that$6#1$ such a developement of self, such 
311:409,06['  ]| a burst$0$ of threatening evil, such a confusion of sudden$2$ and 
311:409,07['  ]| perplexing emotions, must create. ~~ She listened with 
311:409,08['  ]| much inward suffering, but with great outward patience, 
311:409,09['  ]| to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's detail$0$. ~~ Methodical, or well$5$ arranged, or very 
311:409,10['  ]| well$5$ delivered, it could not be expected to$9$ be; but it 
311:409,11['  ]| contained, when separated from all the feebleness and 
311:409,12['  ]| tautology of the narration, a substance to$9$ sink her spirit ~~ 
311:409,13['  ]| especially with the corroborating circumstances, which$6#1$ 
311:409,14['  ]| her own$2$ memory brought in$4$ favour$0$ of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
311:409,15['  ]| most improved opinion of $EM#M$Harriet. 
311:409,16['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet had been conscious of a difference in$4$ his 
311:409,17['  ]| behaviour ever since those two decisive dances$0$. ~~ $EM#A$Emma 
311:409,18['  ]| knew that$3$ he had, on$4$ that$6#2$ occasion$0$, found her much 
311:409,19['  ]| superior to$4$ his expectation. From that$6#2$ evening, or at 
311:409,20['  ]| least from the time of $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's encouraging her 
311:409,21['  ]| to$9$ think of him, $EM#M$Harriet had begun to$9$ be sensible$2#1$ of 
311:409,21@m   | his 
311:409,22@m   | talking to$4$ her much more than he had been used to$9$ do, 
311:409,23@m   | and of his having indeed quite a different manner towards 
311:409,24@m   | her; a manner of kindness and sweetness! ~~ Latterly she 
311:409,25@m   | had been more and more aware of it. When they had been 
311:409,26@m   | all walking together, he had so$5#1$ often come and walked by$4$ 
311:409,27@m   | her, and talked so$5#1$ very delightfully! ~~ He seemed to$9$ want$1$ 
311:409,28@m   | to$9$ be acquainted with her. 
311:409,28['  ]| $EM#A$Emma knew it to$9$ have been 
311:409,29['  ]| very much the case. She had often observed the change$0$, 
311:409,30['  ]| to$4$ almost the same extent. ~~ $EM#M$Harriet repeated expressions 
311:409,31['  ]| of approbation and praise$0$ from him ~~ and $EM#A$Emma felt 
311:409,32['  ]| them to$9$ be in$4$ the closest agreement with what she had 
311:409,33['  ]| known of his opinion of $EM#M$Harriet. He praised her for$4$ being$1$ 
311:409,34['  ]| without art or affectation, for$4$ having simple$2$, honest, 
311:409,35['  ]| generous, feelings. ~~ She knew that$3$ he saw such recommendations 
311:409,36['  ]| in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet; he had dwelt on$4$ them to$4$ her 
311:409,37['  ]| more than once. ~~ Much that$6#1$ lived in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's memory, 
311:409,38['  ]| many little particulars of the notice$0$ she had received from 
311:410,01['  ]| him, a look$0$, a speech, a removal from one chair to$4$ another, 
311:410,02['  ]| a compliment$0$ implied, a preference inferred, had been 
311:410,03['  ]| unnoticed, because unsuspected by$4$ $EM#A$Emma. Circumstances 
311:410,04['  ]| that$6#1$ might swell to$4$ half an hour's relation, and contained 
311:410,05['  ]| multiplied proofs to$4$ her who$6#1$ had seen them, had passed 
311:410,06['  ]| undiscerned by$4$ her who$6#1$ now heard them; but the two 
311:410,07['  ]| latest occurrences to$9$ be mentioned, the two of strongest 
311:410,08['  ]| promise$0$ to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, were not without some degree of 
311:410,09['  ]| witness$0$ from $EM#A$Emma herself. ~~ 
311:410,09@m   | The first, was his walking 
311:410,10@m   | with her apart from the others, in$4$ the limewalk at Donwell, 
311:410,11@m   | where they had been walking some time before$3$ $EM#A$Emma 
311:410,12@m   | came, and he had taken pains 
311:410,12['  ]| (as she was convinced) 
311:410,12@m   | to$9$ 
311:410,13@m   | draw her from the rest$0#1$ to$4$ himself ~~ and at first, he had 
311:410,14@m   | talked to$4$ her in$4$ a more particular way than he had ever 
311:410,15@m   | done before$5$, in$4$ a very particular way indeed! ~~ 
311:410,15['  ]| ($EM#M$Harriet 
311:410,16['  ]| could not recall$1$ it without a blush$0$.) 
311:410,16@m   | He seemed to$9$ be 
311:410,17@m   | almost asking her, whether her affections were engaged. ~~ 
311:410,18@m   | But as soon as she ($EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse) appeared likely to$9$ 
311:410,19@m   | join them, he changed the subject$0$, and began talking 
311:410,20@m   | about$4$ farming: ~~ The second$2$, was his having sat talking 
311:410,21@m   | with her nearly half an hour before$3$ $EM#A$Emma came back$5$ 
311:410,22@m   | from her visit$0$, the very last$2$ morning of his being$1$ at Hartfield ~~ 
311:410,23@m   | though, when he first came in$5$, he had said that$3$ he 
311:410,24@m   | could not stay$1$ five minutes ~~ and his having told her, 
311:410,25@m   | during their conversation, that$3$ though he must go to$4$ 
311:410,26@m   | London, it was very much against his inclination that$3$ he 
311:410,27@m   | left home at all, 
311:410,27@a   | which$6#1$ was much more 
311:410,27['  ]| (as $EM#A$Emma felt) 
311:410,28@a   | than he had acknowledged to$4$ \her\. The superior degree 
311:410,29@a   | of confidence towards $EM#M$Harriet, which$6#1$ this one article 
311:410,30@a   | marked, gave her severe pain$0$. 
311:410,31['  ]| On$4$ the subject$0$ of the first of the two circumstances, she 
311:410,32['  ]| did, after$4$ a little reflection, venture the following question$0$. 
311:410,33[A  ]| "Might he not? ~~ Is it not possible, that$3$ when enquiring, 
311:410,34[A  ]| as you thought$1$, into the state$0$ of your affections, he might 
311:410,35[A  ]| be alluding to$4$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin ~~ he might have $EM#R$Mr%*Martin's 
311:410,36[A  ]| interest$0$ in$4$ view$0$?" 
311:410,36['  ]| ~~ But $EM#M$Harriet rejected the suspicion 
311:410,37['  ]| with spirit. 
311:410,38[M  ]| "$EM#R$Mr%*Martin! No$7$ indeed! ~~ There was not a hint$0$ of 
311:411,01[M  ]| $EM#R$Mr%*Martin. I hope$1$ I know better now, than to$9$ care$1$ for$4$ 
311:411,02[M  ]| $EM#R$Mr%*Martin, or to$9$ be suspected of it." 
311:411,03['  ]| When $EM#M$Harriet had closed her evidence, she appealed to$4$ 
311:411,04['  ]| her dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, to$9$ say whether she had not 
311:411,05['  ]| good ground for$4$ hope$0$. 
311:411,06[M  ]| "I never should have presumed to$9$ think of it at first," 
311:411,07['  ]| said she, 
311:411,07[M  ]| "but for$4$ you. You told me to$9$ observe him 
311:411,08[M  ]| carefully, and let his behaviour be the rule of mine$6$ ~~ and 
311:411,09[M  ]| so$5#2$ I have. But now I seem to$9$ feel that$3$ I may$1$ deserve him; 
311:411,10[M  ]| and that$3$ if he does choose me, it will$1$ not be any*thing 
311:411,11[M  ]| so$5#1$ very wonderful." 
311:411,12['  ]| The bitter feelings occasioned by$4$ this speech, the many 
311:411,13['  ]| bitter feelings, made the utmost exertion necessary on$4$ 
311:411,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's side$0$, to$9$ enable her to$9$ say in$4$ reply$0$, 
311:411,15[A  ]| "$EM#M$Harriet, I will$1$ only venture to$9$ declare, that$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
311:411,16[A  ]| is the last$2$ man in$4$ the world, who$6#1$ would intentionally 
311:411,17[A  ]| give any woman the idea of his feeling for$4$ her 
311:411,18[A  ]| more than he really does." 
311:411,19['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet seemed ready to$9$ worship her friend for$4$ a sentence 
311:411,20['  ]| so$5#1$ satisfactory; and $EM#A$Emma was only saved from raptures 
311:411,21['  ]| and fondness, which$6#1$ at that$6#2$ moment would have been 
311:411,22['  ]| dreadful penance, by$4$ the sound$0$ of her father's footsteps. 
311:411,23['  ]| He was coming through$4$ the hall. $EM#M$Harriet was too$5#1$ much 
311:411,24['  ]| agitated to$9$ encounter him. 
311:411,24[M  ]| "She could not compose 
311:411,25[M  ]| herself ~~ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse would be alarmed ~~ she had 
311:411,26[M  ]| better go;" ~~ 
311:411,26['  ]| with most ready encouragement from her 
311:411,27['  ]| friend, therefore, she passed off through$4$ another door ~~ 
311:411,28['  ]| and the moment she was gone, this was the spontaneous 
311:411,29['  ]| burst$0$ of $EM#A$Emma's feelings: 
311:411,29[A  ]| "Oh God! that$3$ I had never 
311:411,30[A  ]| seen her!" 
311:411,31['  ]| The rest$0#1$ of the day, the following night, were hardly 
311:411,32['  ]| enough for$4$ her thoughts. ~~ She was bewildered amidst the 
311:411,33['  ]| confusion of all that$6#1$ had rushed on$4$ her within the last$2$ few 
311:411,34['  ]| hours. Every moment had brought a fresh surprise$0$; and 
311:411,35['  ]| every surprise$0$ must be matter of humiliation to$4$ her. ~~ 
311:411,36@a   | How to$9$ understand it all! How to$9$ understand the 
311:411,37@a   | deceptions she had been thus practising on$4$ herself, and 
311:411,38@a   | living under! ~~ The blunders, the blindness of her own$2$ 
311:412,01@a   | head$0$ and heart! ~~
311:412,01['  ]| she sat still$2$, she walked about$5$, she 
311:412,02['  ]| tried her own$2$ room, she tried the shrubbery ~~ in$4$ every 
311:412,03['  ]| place$0$, every posture, she perceived that$3$ 
311:412,03@a   | she had acted 
311:412,04@a   | most weakly; that$3$ she had been imposed on$5$ by$4$ others 
311:412,05@a   | in$4$ a most mortifying degree; that$3$ she had been imposing 
311:412,06@a   | on$4$ herself in$4$ a degree yet more mortifying; that$3$ she 
311:412,07@a   | was wretched, and should probably find this day but the 
311:412,08@a   | beginning of wretchedness. 
311:412,09['  ]| To$9$ understand, thoroughly understand her own$2$ heart, 
311:412,10['  ]| was the first endeavour$0$. To$4$ that$6#2$ point$0$ went every leisure 
311:412,11['  ]| moment which$6#1$ her father's claims on$4$ her allowed, and 
311:412,12['  ]| every moment of involuntary absence of mind$0$. 
311:412,13@a   | How long had $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley been so$5#1$ dear$2#1$ to$4$ her, as 
311:412,14@a   | every feeling declared him now to$9$ be? When had his 
311:412,15@a   | influence$0$, such influence$0$ begun? ~~ When had he succeeded 
311:412,16@a   | to$4$ that$6#2$ place$0$ in$4$ her affection, which$6#1$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill had 
311:412,17@a   | once, for$4$ a short period, occupied? ~~ She looked back$5$; she 
311:412,18@a   | compared the two ~~ compared them, as they had always 
311:412,19@a   | stood in$4$ her estimation, from the time of the latter's 
311:412,20@a   | becoming known to$4$ her ~~ and as they must at any time 
311:412,21@a   | have been compared by$4$ her, had it ~~ oh! had it, by$4$ any 
311:412,22@a   | blessed felicity, occurred to$4$ her, to$9$ institute the comparison. ~~ 
311:412,23@a   | She saw that$3$ there never had been a time when 
311:412,24@a   | she did not consider $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley as infinitely the 
311:412,25@a   | superior, or when his regard$0$ for$4$ her had not been infinitely 
311:412,26@a   | the most dear$2#1$. She saw, that$3$ in$4$ persuading herself, in$4$ 
311:412,27@a   | fancying, in$4$ acting to$4$ the contrary, she had been entirely 
311:412,28@a   | under a delusion, totally ignorant of her own$2$ heart ~~ and, 
311:412,29@a   | in$4$ short, that$3$ she had never really cared for$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
311:412,30@a   | at all! 
311:412,31['  ]| This was the conclusion of the first series of reflection. 
311:412,32['  ]| This was the knowledge of herself, on$4$ the first question$0$ of 
311:412,33['  ]| inquiry, which$6#1$ she reached; and without being$1$ long in$4$ 
311:412,34['  ]| reaching it. ~~ 
311:412,34@a   | She was most sorrowfully indignant; 
311:412,35@a   | ashamed of every sensation$0#1$ but the one revealed to$4$ her ~~ 
311:412,36@a   | her affection for$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ Every other part$0$ of her 
311:412,37@a   | mind$0$ was disgusting. 
311:412,38@a   | With insufferable vanity had she believed herself in$4$ the 
311:413,01@a   | secret$0$ of everybody's feelings; with unpardonable 
311:413,02@a   | arrogance proposed to$9$ arrange everybody's destiny. She 
311:413,03@a   | was proved to$9$ have been universally mistaken; and she 
311:413,04@a   | had not quite done nothing ~~ for$3$ she had done mischief. 
311:413,05@a   | She had brought evil on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, on$4$ herself, and she too$5#1$ 
311:413,06@a   | much feared, on$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ Were this most unequal 
311:413,07@a   | of all connexions to$9$ take place$0$, on$4$ her must rest$1$ all the 
311:413,08@a   | reproach$0$ of having given it a beginning; for$4$ his attachment, 
311:413,09@a   | she must believe to$9$ be produced only by$4$ a consciousness 
311:413,10@a   | of $EM#M$Harriet's; ~~ and even$5$ were this not the 
311:413,11@a   | case, he would never have known $EM#M$Harriet at all but for$4$ 
311:413,12@a   | her folly. 
311:413,13@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#M$Harriet*Smith! ~~ It was an union 
311:413,14@a   | to$9$ distance$1$ every wonder$0$ of the kind$0$. ~~ The attachment 
311:413,15@a   | of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill and $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax became common-place, 
311:413,16@a   | threadbare, stale in$4$ the comparison, exciting no$2$ 
311:413,17@a   | surprise$0$, presenting no$2$ disparity, affording nothing to$9$ be 
311:413,18@a   | said or thought$1$. ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#M$Harriet*Smith! ~~ 
311:413,19@a   | Such an elevation on$4$ her side$0$! Such a debasement on$4$ his! 
311:413,20['  ]| ~~ It was horrible to$4$ $EM#A$Emma to$9$ think 
311:413,20@a   | how it must sink him 
311:413,21@a   | in$4$ the general$2$ opinion, to$9$ foresee the smiles, the sneers, 
311:413,22@a   | the merriment it would prompt$1$ at his expense; the 
311:413,23@a   | mortification and disdain$0$ of his brother, the thousand 
311:413,24@a   | inconveniences to$4$ himself. ~~ Could it be? ~~ No$7$; it was 
311:413,25@a   | impossible. And yet it was far, very far, from impossible. 
311:413,26@a   | ~~ Was it a new circumstance for$4$ a man of first-rate abilities 
311:413,27@a   | to$9$ be captivated by$4$ very inferior powers? Was it new 
311:413,28@a   | for$4$ one, perhaps too$5#1$ busy to$9$ seek, to$9$ be the prize$0$ of a girl 
311:413,29@a   | who$6#1$ would seek him? ~~ Was it new for$4$ any*thing in$4$ this 
311:413,30@a   | world to$9$ be unequal, inconsistent, incongruous ~~ or for$4$ 
311:413,31@a   | chance$0$ and circumstance (as second$2$ causes) to$9$ direct$1$ the 
311:413,32@a   | human fate? 
311:413,33@a   | Oh! had she never brought $EM#M$Harriet forward$5$! Had 
311:413,34@a   | she left her where she ought, and where he had told her 
311:413,35@a   | she ought! ~~ Had she not, with a folly which$6#1$ no$2$ tongue 
311:413,36@a   | could express$1$, prevented her marrying the unexceptionable 
311:413,37@a   | young man who$6#1$ would have made her happy and respectable 
311:413,38@a   | in$4$ the line of life to$4$ which$6#1$ she ought to$9$ belong ~~ 
311:414,01@a   | all would have been safe; none of this dreadful sequel 
311:414,02@a   | would have been. 
311:414,03@a   | How $EM#M$Harriet could ever have had the presumption to$9$ 
311:414,04@a   | raise her thoughts to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley! ~~ How she could 
311:414,05@a   | dare$1#1$ to$9$ fancy$1$ herself the chosen of such a man till actually 
311:414,06@a   | assured of it! ~~ But $EM#M$Harriet was less humble$2$, had fewer 
311:414,07@a   | scruples than formerly. ~~ Her inferiority, whether of mind$0$ 
311:414,08@a   | or situation, seemed little felt. ~~ She had seemed more 
311:414,09@a   | sensible$2#1$ of $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's being$1$ to$9$ stoop in$4$ marrying her, 
311:414,10@a   | than she now seemed of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's. ~~ Alas! was 
311:414,11@a   | not that$6#2$ her own$2$ doing too$5#2$? Who$6#2$ had been at pains to$9$ 
311:414,12@a   | give $EM#M$Harriet notions of self-consequence but herself? ~~ 
311:414,13@a   | Who$6#2$ but herself had taught her, that$3$ she was to$9$ elevate 
311:414,14@a   | herself if possible, and that$3$ her claims were great to$4$ a high 
311:414,15@a   | worldly establishment? ~~ If $EM#M$Harriet, from being$1$ humble$2$, 
311:414,16@a   | were grown vain, it was her doing too$5#2$. 
312:415,01['  ]| Till now that$3$ she was threatened with its loss, $EM#A$Emma 
312:415,02['  ]| had never known how much of her happiness depended on$4$ 
312:415,03['  ]| being$1$ \first\ with $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, first in$4$ interest$0$ and 
312:415,04['  ]| affection. ~~ Satisfied that$3$ it was so$5#2$, and feeling it her due$0$, 
312:415,05['  ]| she had enjoyed it without reflection; and only in$4$ the 
312:415,06['  ]| dread$0$ of being$1$ supplanted, found how inexpressibly important 
312:415,07['  ]| it had been. ~~ 
312:415,07@a   | Long, very long, she felt she had 
312:415,08@a   | been first; for$3$, having no$2$ female$2$ connexions of his own$2$, 
312:415,09@a   | there had been only $EM#L$Isabella whose$6#1$ claims could be compared 
312:415,10@a   | with hers, and she had always known exactly how 
312:415,11@a   | far he loved and esteemed $EM#L$Isabella. She had herself been 
312:415,12@a   | first with him for$4$ many years past$1$. She had not deserved 
312:415,13@a   | it; she had often been negligent or perverse, slighting 
312:415,14@a   | his advice, or even$5$ wilfully opposing him, insensible of 
312:415,15@a   | half his merits, and quarrelling with him because he 
312:415,16@a   | would not acknowledge her false and insolent estimate$0$ 
312:415,17@a   | of her own$2$ ~~ but still$5$, from family attachment and habit, 
312:415,18@a   | and thorough excellence of mind$0$, he had loved her, and 
312:415,19@a   | watched over her from a girl, with an endeavour$0$ to$9$ 
312:415,20@a   | improve her, and an anxiety for$4$ her doing right$2#1$, which$6#1$ 
312:415,21@a   | no$2$ other creature had at all shared. In$4$ spite$8$ of all her 
312:415,22@a   | faults, she knew she was dear$2#1$ to$4$ him; might she not say, 
312:415,23@a   | very dear$2#1$? ~~ 
312:415,23['  ]| When the suggestions of hope$0$, however, 
312:415,24['  ]| which$6#1$ must follow here, presented themselves, she could 
312:415,25['  ]| not presume to$9$ indulge them. 
312:415,25@a   | $EM#M$Harriet*Smith might think 
312:415,26@a   | herself not unworthy of being$1$ peculiarly, exclusively,

312:415,28@a   | She could not flatter herself with any idea of blindness in$4$ 
312:415,29@a   | his attachment to$4$ \her\. She had received a very recent 
312:415,30@a   | proof of its impartiality. ~~ How shocked had he been by$4$ 
312:415,31@a   | her behaviour to$4$ $EM#D$Miss*Bates! How directly, how strongly 
312:415,32@a   | had he expressed himself to$4$ her on$4$ the subject$0$! ~~ Not too$5#1$ 
312:415,33@a   | strongly for$4$ the offence ~~ but far, far too$5#1$ strongly to$9$ issue$1$ 
312:416,01@a   | from any feeling softer than upright justice and clear-sighted 
312:416,02@a   | good*will. ~~ She had no$2$ hope$0$, nothing to$9$ deserve 
312:416,03@a   | the name$0$ of hope$0$, that$3$ he could have that$6#2$ sort of affection 
312:416,04@a   | for$4$ herself which$6#1$ was now in$4$ question$0$; but there was 
312:416,05@a   | a hope$0$ 
312:416,05['  ]| (at times a slight$2$ one, at times much stronger,) 
312:416,06@a   | that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet might have deceived herself, and be over-rating 
312:416,07@a   | his regard$0$ for$4$ \her\. ~~ Wish$1$ it she must, for$4$ his sake 
312:416,08@a   | ~~ be the consequence nothing to$4$ herself, but his remaining 
312:416,09@a   | single all his life. Could she be secure$2$ of that$6#2$, indeed, of 
312:416,10@a   | his never marrying at all, she believed she should be 
312:416,11@a   | perfectly satisfied. ~~ Let him but continue the same 
312:416,12@a   | $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley to$4$ her and her father, the same $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
312:416,13@a   | to$4$ all the world; let Donwell and Hartfield lose none 
312:416,14@a   | of their precious intercourse of friendship and confidence, 
312:416,15@a   | and her peace would be fully secured. ~~ Marriage, in$4$ fact, 
312:416,16@a   | would not do for$4$ her. It would be incompatible with 
312:416,17@a   | what she owed to$4$ her father, and with what she felt for$4$ 
312:416,18@a   | him. Nothing should separate$1$ her from her father. She 
312:416,19@a   | would not marry, even$5$ if she were asked by$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
312:416,20@a   | It must be her ardent wish$0$ that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet might be 
312:416,21@a   | disappointed; and she hoped, that$3$ when able to$9$ see them 
312:416,22@a   | together again, she might at least be able to$9$ ascertain 
312:416,23@a   | what the chances for$4$ it were. ~~ She should see them henceforward

312:416,26@a   | watching, she did not know how to$9$ admit that$3$ she could 
312:416,27@a   | be blinded here. ~~ He was expected back$5$ every day. The 
312:416,28@a   | power of observation would be soon given ~~ frightfully 
312:416,29@a   | soon it appeared when her thoughts were in$4$ one course$0$. 
312:416,30@a   | In$4$ the meanwhile, she resolved against seeing $EM#M$Harriet. ~~ 
312:416,31@a   | It would do neither of them good, it would do the subject$0$ 
312:416,32@a   | no$2$ good, to$9$ be talking of it farther. ~~ She was resolved not 
312:416,33@a   | to$9$ be convinced, as long as she could doubt$1$, and yet had 
312:416,34@a   | no$2$ authority for$4$ opposing $EM#M$Harriet's confidence. To$9$ talk$1$ 
312:416,35@a   | would be only to$9$ irritate. ~~ 
312:416,35['  ]| She wrote to$4$ her, therefore, 
312:416,36['  ]| kindly, but decisively, to$9$ beg that$3$ 
312:416,36@a   | she would not, at present$0#1$, 
312:416,37@a   | come to$4$ Hartfield; acknowledging it to$9$ be her conviction,
312:416,38@a   | that$3$ all farther confidential discussion of \one\ topic 
312:417,01@a   | had better be avoided; and hoping, that$3$ if a few days 
312:417,02@a   | were allowed to$9$ pass$1$ before$3$ they met again, except in$4$ the 
312:417,03@a   | company of others ~~ she objected only to$4$ a te^te-a`-te^te ~~ 
312:417,04@a   | they might be able to$9$ act$1$ as if they had forgotten the conversation 
312:417,05@a   | of yesterday. ~~ 
312:417,05['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet submitted, and approved, 
312:417,06['  ]| and was grateful. 
312:417,07['  ]| This point$0$ was just$5$ arranged, when a visitor arrived to$9$ 
312:417,08['  ]| tear$1$ $EM#A$Emma's thoughts a little from the one subject$0$ which$6#1$ 
312:417,09['  ]| had engrossed them, sleeping or waking, the last$2$ twenty-four 
312:417,10['  ]| hours ~~ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, who$6#1$ had been calling on$4$ her 
312:417,11['  ]| daughter-in-law elect, and took Hartfield in$4$ her way 
312:417,12['  ]| home, almost as much in$4$ duty to$4$ $EM#A$Emma as in$4$ pleasure to$4$ 
312:417,13['  ]| herself, to$9$ relate all the particulars of so$5#1$ interesting an 
312:417,14['  ]| interview. 
312:417,15['  ]| $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had accompanied her to$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's, and 
312:417,16['  ]| gone through$4$ his share$0$ of this essential attention most 
312:417,17['  ]| handsomely; but she having then induced $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
312:417,18['  ]| to$9$ join her in$4$ an airing, was now returned with much more 
312:417,19['  ]| to$9$ say, and much more to$9$ say with satisfaction, than 
312:417,20['  ]| a quarter$0#1$ of an hour spent in$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's parlour, with 
312:417,21['  ]| all the incumbrance of awkward feelings, could have 
312:417,22['  ]| afforded. 
312:417,23['  ]| A little curiosity $EM#A$Emma had; and she made the most 
312:417,24['  ]| of it while$3$ her friend related. $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston had set$1$ off to$9$ 
312:417,25['  ]| pay$1$ the visit$0$ in$4$ a good deal$0$ of agitation herself; and in$4$ 
312:417,26['  ]| the first place$0$ had wished not to$9$ go at all at present$0#1$, to$9$ 
312:417,27['  ]| be allowed merely to$9$ write to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax instead, and to$9$ 
312:417,28['  ]| defer this ceremonious call$0$ till a little time had passed, 
312:417,29['  ]| and $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill could be reconciled to$4$ the engagement's 
312:417,30['  ]| becoming known; as, 
312:417,30@o   | considering every*thing, 
312:417,30['  ]| she 
312:417,31['  ]| thought$1$ 
312:417,31@o   | such a visit$0$ could not be paid without leading to$4$ 
312:417,32@o   | reports; ~~ 
312:417,32['  ]| but $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had thought$1$ differently; 
312:417,32@n   | he 
312:417,33@n   | was extremely anxious to$9$ shew$1$ his approbation to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
312:417,34@n   | and her family, and did not conceive that$3$ any 
312:417,35@n   | suspicion could be excited by$4$ it; or if it were, that$3$ it 
312:417,36@n   | would be of any consequence; 
312:417,36['  ]| for$3$ 
312:417,36[N  ]| "such things," 
312:417,36['  ]| he 
312:417,37['  ]| observed, 
312:417,37[N  ]| "always got about$5$." 
312:417,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma smiled, and felt 
312:417,38['  ]| that$3$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had very good reason$0$ for$4$ saying so$5#2$. 
312:418,01@o   | They had gone, in$4$ short ~~ and very great had been the 
312:418,02@o   | evident distress$0$ and confusion of the lady. She had hardly 
312:418,03@o   | been able to$9$ speak a word, and every look$0$ and action had 
312:418,04@o   | shown how deeply she was suffering from consciousness. 
312:418,05@o   | The quiet$2$, heartfelt satisfaction of the old lady, and the 
312:418,06@o   | rapturous delight$0$ of her daughter ~~ who$6#1$ proved even$5$ too$5#1$ 
312:418,07@o   | joyous to$9$ talk$1$ as usual, had been a gratifying, yet almost 
312:418,08@o   | an affecting, scene. They were both so$5#1$ truly respectable 
312:418,09@o   | in$4$ their happiness, so$5#1$ disinterested in$4$ every sensation$0#1$; 
312:418,10@o   | thought$1$ so$5#1$ much of $EM#J$Jane; so$5#1$ much of everybody, and so$5#1$ 
312:418,11@o   | little of themselves, that$3$ every kindly feeling was at work$0$ 
312:418,12@o   | for$4$ them. 
312:418,12['  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's recent illness had offered a fair 
312:418,13['  ]| plea for$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$9$ invite her to$4$ an airing; she had 
312:418,14['  ]| drawn back$5$ and declined at first, but on$4$ being$1$ pressed had 
312:418,15['  ]| yielded; and in$4$ the course$0$ of their drive$0$, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
312:418,16['  ]| had, by$4$ gentle encouragement, overcome so$5#1$ much of her 
312:418,17['  ]| embarrassment, as to$9$ bring her to$9$ converse on$4$ the important 
312:418,18['  ]| subject$0$. 
312:418,18@o   | Apologies for$4$ her seemingly ungracious 
312:418,19@o   | silence$0$ in$4$ their first reception, and the warmest expressions 
312:418,20@o   | of the gratitude she was always feeling towards 
312:418,21@o   | herself and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston, must necessarily open$1$ the cause; 
312:418,22@o   | but when these effusions were put by$5$, they had talked 
312:418,23@o   | a good deal$0$ of the present$2$ and of the future state$0$ of the 
312:418,24@o   | engagement. 
312:418,24['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was convinced that$3$ 
312:418,24@o   | such conversation 
312:418,25@o   | must be the greatest relief to$4$ her companion, 
312:418,26@o   | pent up$5$ within her own$2$ mind$0$ as every*thing had so$5#1$ long 
312:418,27@o   | been, and was very much pleased with all that$6#1$ she had 
312:418,28@o   | said on$4$ the subject$0$. 
312:418,29[O  ]| "On$4$ the misery of what she had suffered, during the 
312:418,30[O  ]| concealment of so$5#1$ many months," 
312:418,30['  ]| continued $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
312:418,31[O  ]| "she was energetic. This was one of her expressions. 
312:418,32@j   | ""I will$1$ not say, that$3$ since I entered into the engagement 
312:418,33@j   | I have not had some happy moments; but I can say, that$3$ 
312:418,34@j   | I have never known the blessing of one tranquil hour:"" ~~ 
312:418,35[O  ]| and the quivering lip, $EM#A$Emma, which$6#1$ uttered it, was an 
312:418,36[O  ]| attestation that$6#1$ I felt at my heart." 
312:418,37[A  ]| "Poor girl!" 
312:418,37['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
312:418,37[A  ]| "She thinks herself wrong, 
312:418,38[A  ]| then, for$4$ having consented to$4$ a private$2$ engagement?" 
312:419,01[O  ]| "Wrong! ~~ No*one, I believe, can blame$1$ her more than 
312:419,02[O  ]| she is disposed to$9$ blame$1$ herself. 
312:419,02@j   | ""The consequence,"" 
312:419,02[O  ]| said 
312:419,03[O  ]| she, 
312:419,03@j   | ""has been a state$0$ of perpetual suffering to$4$ me; and 
312:419,04@j   | so$5#2$ it ought. But after$4$ all the punishment that$6#1$ misconduct 
312:419,05@j   | can bring, it is still$5$ not less misconduct. Pain$0$ is no$2$ expiation. 
312:419,06@j   | I never can be blameless. I have been acting 
312:419,07@j   | contrary to$4$ all my sense of right$0$; and the fortunate turn$0$ 
312:419,08@j   | that$6#1$ every*thing has taken, and the kindness I am now 
312:419,09@j   | receiving, is what my conscience tells me ought not to$9$ be. 
312:419,10@j   | Do not imagine, madam,"" 
312:419,10[O  ]| she continued, 
312:419,10@j   | ""that$3$ I was 
312:419,11@j   | taught wrong. Do not let any reflection fall$1$ on$4$ the 
312:419,12@j   | principles or the care$0$ of the friends who$6#1$ brought me up$5$. 
312:419,13@j   | The error has been all my own$2$; and I do assure you that$3$, 
312:419,14@j   | with all the excuse$0$ that$6#1$ present$2$ circumstances may$1$ appear 
312:419,15@j   | to$9$ give, I shall yet dread$1$ making the story known to$4$ 
312:419,16@j   | $EM#ZC$Colonel*Campbell."" " 
312:419,17[A  ]| "Poor girl!" 
312:419,17['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma again. 
312:419,17[A  ]| "She loves him then 
312:419,18[A  ]| excessively, I suppose. It must have been from attachment 
312:419,19[A  ]| only, that$3$ she could be led to$9$ form$1$ the engagement. 
312:419,20[A  ]| Her affection must have overpowered her judgment." 
312:419,21[O  ]| "Yes, I have no$2$ doubt$0$ of her being$1$ extremely attached 
312:419,22[O  ]| to$4$ him." 
312:419,23[A  ]| "I am afraid," 
312:419,23['  ]| returned $EM#A$Emma, sighing, 
312:419,23[A  ]| "that$3$ I must 
312:419,24[A  ]| often have contributed to$9$ make$1$ her unhappy." 
312:419,25[O  ]| "On$4$ your side$0$, my love$0$, it was very innocently done. 
312:419,26[O  ]| But she probably had something of that$6#2$ in$4$ her thoughts, 
312:419,27[O  ]| when alluding to$4$ the misunderstandings which$6#1$ he had 
312:419,28[O  ]| given us hints of before$5$. 
312:419,28@j   | One natural$2$ consequence of the 
312:419,29@j   | evil she had involved herself in$4$, 
312:419,29[O  ]| she said, 
312:419,29@j   | was that$6#2$ of 
312:419,30@j   | making her \unreasonable\. The consciousness of having 
312:419,31@j   | done amiss, had exposed her to$4$ a thousand inquietudes, 
312:419,32@j   | and made her captious and irritable to$4$ a degree that$6#1$ must 
312:419,33@j   | have been ~~ that$6#1$ had been ~~ hard for$4$ him to$9$ bear$1$. 
312:419,33@j   | ""I did 
312:419,34@j   | not make$1$ the allowances,"" 
312:419,34[O  ]| said she, 
312:419,34@j   | ""which$6#1$ I ought to$9$ have 
312:419,35@j   | done, for$4$ his temper and spirits ~~ his delightful spirits, and 
312:419,36@j   | that$6#2$ gaiety, that$6#2$ playfulness of disposition, which$6#1$, under 
312:419,37@j   | any other circumstances, would, I am sure, have been as 
312:419,38@j   | constantly bewitching to$4$ me, as they were at first."" 
312:419,38[O  ]| She 
312:420,01[O  ]| then began to$9$ speak of you, and of the great kindness 
312:420,02[O  ]| you had shown her during her illness; and with a blush$0$ 
312:420,03[O  ]| which$6#1$ showed me how it was all connected, 
312:420,03@j   | desired me, 
312:420,04@j   | whenever I had an opportunity, to$9$ thank you ~~ I could not 
312:420,05@j   | thank you too$5#1$ much ~~ for$4$ every wish$0$ and every endeavour$0$ 
312:420,06@j   | to$9$ do her good. 
312:420,06[O  ]| She was sensible$2#1$ that$3$ you had never 
312:420,07[O  ]| received any proper acknowledgment from herself." 
312:420,08[A  ]| "If I did not know her to$9$ be happy now," 
312:420,08['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
312:420,09['  ]| seriously, 
312:420,09[A  ]| "which$6#1$, in$4$ spite$8$ of every little drawback from 
312:420,10[A  ]| her scrupulous conscience, she must be, I could not bear$1$ 
312:420,11[A  ]| these thanks; ~~ for$3$, oh! $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, if there were an 
312:420,12[A  ]| account$0$ drawn up$5$ of the evil and the good I have done 
312:420,13[A  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax! ~~ Well$7$, 
312:420,13['  ]| (checking herself, and trying to$9$ be 
312:420,14['  ]| more lively), 
312:420,14[A  ]| this is all to$9$ be forgotten. You are very 
312:420,15[A  ]| kind$2$ to$9$ bring me these interesting particulars. They show$1$ 
312:420,16[A  ]| her to$4$ the greatest advantage. I am sure she is very good ~~ 
312:420,17[A  ]| I hope$1$ she will$1$ be very happy. It is fit$2$ that$3$ the fortune 
312:420,18[A  ]| should be on$4$ his side$0$, for$3$ I think the merit$0$ will$1$ be all on$4$ 
312:420,19[A  ]| her's." 
312:420,20['  ]| Such a conclusion could not pass$1$ unanswered by$4$ 
312:420,21['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. She thought$1$ well$5$ of $EM#E$Frank in$4$ almost every 
312:420,22['  ]| respect$0$; and, what was more, she loved him very much, 
312:420,23['  ]| and her defence was, therefore, earnest. She talked with 
312:420,24['  ]| a great deal$0$ of reason$0$, and at least equal$2$ affection ~~ but 
312:420,25['  ]| she had too$5#1$ much to$9$ urge for$4$ $EM#A$Emma's attention; it was 
312:420,26['  ]| soon gone to$4$ Brunswick*Square or to$4$ Donwell; she forgot 
312:420,27['  ]| to$9$ attempt$0$ to$9$ listen; and when $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston ended with, 
312:420,28[O  ]| "We have not yet had the letter we are so$5#1$ anxious for$4$, 
312:420,29[O  ]| you know, but I hope$1$ it will$1$ soon come," 
312:420,29['  ]| she was obliged 
312:420,30['  ]| to$9$ pause$1$ before$3$ she answered, and at last$0$ obliged to$9$ answer$1$ 
312:420,31['  ]| at random, before$3$ she could at all recollect what letter it 
312:420,32['  ]| was which$6#1$ they were so$5#1$ anxious for$4$. 
312:420,33[O  ]| "Are you well$5$, my $EM#A$Emma?" 
312:420,33['  ]| was $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's parting 
312:420,34['  ]| question$0$. 
312:420,35[A  ]| "Oh! perfectly. I am always well$5$, you know. Be sure 
312:420,36[A  ]| to$9$ give me intelligence of the letter as soon as possible." 
312:420,37['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's communications furnished $EM#A$Emma with 
312:420,38['  ]| more food for$4$ unpleasant reflection, by$4$ increasing her 
312:421,01['  ]| esteem$0$ and compassion, and her sense of past$2$ injustice 
312:421,02['  ]| towards $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. She bitterly regretted not having 
312:421,03['  ]| sought a closer acquaintance with her, and blushed for$4$ 
312:421,04['  ]| the envious feelings which$6#1$ had certainly been, in$4$ some 
312:421,05['  ]| measure$0$, the cause. 
312:421,05@a   | Had she followed $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
312:421,06@a   | known wishes$0$, in$4$ paying that$6#2$ attention to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
312:421,07@a   | which$6#1$ was every way her due$0$; had she tried to$9$ know her 
312:421,08@a   | better; had she done her part$0$ towards intimacy; had 
312:421,09@a   | she endeavoured to$9$ find a friend there instead of in$4$ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith; 
312:421,10@a   | she must, in$4$ all probability, have been spared from 
312:421,11@a   | every pain$0$ which$6#1$ pressed on$4$ her now. ~~ Birth$0#1$, abilities, 
312:421,12@a   | and education, had been equally marking one as an 
312:421,13@a   | associate$0$ for$4$ her, to$9$ be received with gratitude; and the 
312:421,14@a   | other ~~ what was she? ~~ Supposing even$5$ that$3$ they had 
312:421,15@a   | never become intimate$2$ friends; that$3$ she had never been 
312:421,16@a   | admitted into $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's confidence on$4$ this important 
312:421,17@a   | matter ~~ which$6#1$ was most probable ~~ still$5$, in$4$ knowing her 
312:421,18@a   | as she ought, and as she might, she must have been 
312:421,19@a   | preserved from the abominable suspicions of an improper 
312:421,20@a   | attachment to$4$ $EM#ZF$Mr%*Dixon, which$6#1$ she had not only so$5#1$ 
312:421,21@a   | foolishly fashioned and harboured herself, but had so$5#1$ 
312:421,22@a   | unpardonably imparted; an idea which$6#1$ she greatly feared 
312:421,23@a   | had been made a subject$0$ of material$2$ distress$0$ to$4$ the 
312:421,24@a   | delicacy of $EM#J$Jane's feelings, by$4$ the levity or carelessness of 
312:421,25@a   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's. Of all the sources of evil surrounding 
312:421,26@a   | the former, since her coming to$4$ Highbury, she was persuaded 
312:421,27@a   | that$3$ she must herself have been the worst. She 
312:421,28@a   | must have been a perpetual enemy. They never could 
312:421,29@a   | have been all three together, without her having stabbed 
312:421,30@a   | $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's peace in$4$ a thousand instances; and on$4$ 
312:421,31@a   | Box*Hill, perhaps, it had been the agony of a mind$0$ that$6#1$ 
312:421,32@a   | would bear$1$ no$2$ more. 
312:421,33['  ]| The evening of this day was very long, and melancholy$2$, 
312:421,34['  ]| at Hartfield. The weather added what it could of gloom. 
312:421,35['  ]| A cold$2$ stormy rain$0$ set$1$ in$5$, and nothing of July appeared 
312:421,36['  ]| but in$4$ the trees and shrubs, which$6#1$ the wind was despoiling, 
312:421,37['  ]| and the length of the day, which$6#1$ only made such cruel 
312:421,38['  ]| sights the longer visible. 
312:422,01['  ]| The weather affected $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, and he could only 
312:422,02['  ]| be kept tolerably comfortable by$4$ almost ceaseless attention 
312:422,03['  ]| on$4$ his daughter's side$0$, and by$4$ exertions which$6#1$ had never 
312:422,04['  ]| cost$1$ her half so$5#1$ much before$5$. 
312:422,04@a   | It reminded her of their 
312:422,05@a   | first forlorn te^te-a`-te^te, on$4$ the evening of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's 
312:422,06@a   | wedding-day; but $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley had walked in$5$ then, 
312:422,07@a   | soon after$4$ tea, and dissipated every melancholy$2$ fancy$0$. 
312:422,08@a   | Alas! such delightful proofs of Hartfield's attraction, as 
312:422,09@a   | those sort of visits conveyed, might shortly be over. The 
312:422,10@a   | picture$0$ which$6#1$ she had then drawn of the privations of the 
312:422,11@a   | approaching winter, had proved erroneous; no$2$ friends 
312:422,12@a   | had deserted them, no$2$ pleasures had been lost. ~~ But her 
312:422,13@a   | present$2$ forebodings she feared would experience$1$ no$2$ similar 
312:422,14@a   | contradiction. The prospect before$4$ her now, was threatening 
312:422,15@a   | to$4$ a degree that$6#1$ could not be entirely dispelled ~~ that$6#1$ 
312:422,16@a   | might not be even$5$ partially brightened. If all took place$0$ 
312:422,17@a   | that$6#1$ might take place$0$ among the circle of her friends, 
312:422,18@a   | Hartfield must be comparatively deserted; and she left 
312:422,19@a   | to$9$ cheer her father with the spirits only of ruined happiness. 
312:422,20@a   | 
312:422,21@a   | The child to$9$ be born$1#1$ at Randall's must be a tie there 
312:422,22@a   | even$5$ dearer than herself; and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's heart and 
312:422,23@a   | time would be occupied by$4$ it. They should lose her; 
312:422,24@a   | and, probably, in$4$ great measure$0$, her husband also. ~~ 
312:422,25@a   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill would return$1$ among them no$2$ more; and 
312:422,26@a   | $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, it was reasonable to$9$ suppose, would soon 
312:422,27@a   | cease to$9$ belong to$4$ Highbury. They would be married, and 
312:422,28@a   | settled either at or near$4$ Enscombe. All that$6#1$ were good 
312:422,29@a   | would be withdrawn; and if to$4$ these losses, the loss of 
312:422,30@a   | Donwell were to$9$ be added, what would remain of cheerful 
312:422,31@a   | or of rational society within their reach$0$? $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
312:422,32@a   | to$9$ be no$2$ longer coming there for$4$ his evening comfort$0$! ~~ 
312:422,33@a   | No$2$ longer walking in$5$ at all hours, as if ever willing to$9$ 
312:422,34@a   | change$1$ his own$2$ home for$4$ their's! ~~ How was it to$9$ be 
312:422,35@a   | endured? And if he were to$9$ be lost to$4$ them for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's 
312:422,36@a   | sake; if he were to$9$ be thought$1$ of hereafter, as finding in$4$ 
312:422,37@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's society all that$6#1$ he wanted; if $EM#M$Harriet were to$9$ be 
312:422,38@a   | the chosen, the first, the dearest, the friend, the wife to$4$ 
312:423,01@a   | whom$6#1$ he looked for$4$ all the best blessings of existence; 
312:423,02@a   | what could be increasing $EM#A$Emma's wretchedness but the 
312:423,03@a   | reflection never far distant from her mind$0$, that$3$ it had been 
312:423,04@a   | all her own$2$ work$0$? 
312:423,05['  ]| When it came to$4$ such a pitch as this, she was not able 
312:423,06['  ]| to$9$ refrain from a start$0$, or a heavy sigh$0$, or even$5$ from 
312:423,07['  ]| walking about$4$ the room for$4$ a few seconds ~~ and the only 
312:423,08['  ]| source whence any*thing like$4$ consolation or composure 
312:423,09['  ]| could be drawn, was in$4$ the resolution of her own$2$ better 
312:423,10['  ]| conduct$0$, and the hope$0$ that$3$, however inferior in$4$ spirit and 
312:423,11['  ]| gaiety might be the following and every future winter of 
312:423,12['  ]| her life to$4$ the past$0$, it would yet find her more rational, 
312:423,13['  ]| more acquainted with herself, and leave$1$ her less to$9$ regret$1$ 
312:423,14['  ]| when it were gone. 
313:424,01['  ]| The weather continued much the same all the following 
313:424,02['  ]| morning; and the same loneliness, and the same melancholy$0$, 
313:424,03['  ]| seemed to$9$ reign at Hartfield ~~ but in$4$ the afternoon 
313:424,04['  ]| it cleared; the wind changed into a softer quarter$0#2$; the 
313:424,05['  ]| clouds were carried off; the sun appeared; it was summer 
313:424,06['  ]| again. With all the eagerness which$6#1$ such a transition 
313:424,07['  ]| gives, $EM#A$Emma resolved to$9$ be out$5$ of doors as soon as 
313:424,08['  ]| possible. Never had the exquisite sight, smell, sensation$0#1$ 
313:424,09['  ]| of nature, tranquil, warm$2$, and brilliant after$4$ a storm$0$, 
313:424,10['  ]| been more attractive to$4$ her. She longed for$4$ the serenity 
313:424,11['  ]| they might gradually introduce; and on$4$ $EM#W$Mr%*Perry's 
313:424,12['  ]| coming in$5$ soon after$4$ dinner, with a disengaged hour to$9$ 
313:424,13['  ]| give her father, she lost no$2$ time in$4$ hurrying into the 
313:424,14['  ]| shrubbery. ~~ There, with spirits freshened, and thoughts 
313:424,15['  ]| a little relieved, she had taken a few turns$0$, when she saw 
313:424,16['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley passing through$4$ the garden door, and 
313:424,17['  ]| coming towards her. ~~ It was the first intimation of his 
313:424,18['  ]| being$1$ returned from London. She had been thinking of 
313:424,19['  ]| him the moment before$5$, as unquestionably sixteen miles 
313:424,20['  ]| distant. ~~ There was time only for$4$ the quickest arrangement 
313:424,21['  ]| of mind$0$. 
313:424,21@a   | She must be collected and calm$2$. 
313:424,21['  ]| In$4$ half 
313:424,22['  ]| a minute$0$ they were together. The 
313:424,22[Y  ]| "How d'ye do's," 
313:424,23['  ]| were quiet$2$ and constrained on$4$ each side$0$. She asked after$4$ 
313:424,24['  ]| their mutual friends: 
313:424,24@b   | they were all well$5$. ~~ 
313:424,24@a   | When had he 
313:424,25@a   | left them? ~~ 
313:424,25@b   | Only that$6#2$ morning. 
313:424,25@a   | He must have had a wet$2$ 
313:424,26@a   | ride$0$. ~~ 
313:424,26@b   | Yes. ~~ 
313:424,26['  ]| He meant to$9$ walk$1$ with her, she found. 
313:424,27@b   | "He had just$5$ looked into the dining-room, and as he was 
313:424,28@b   | not wanted there, preferred being$1$ out$5$ of doors." ~~ 
313:424,28@a   | She 
313:424,29@a   | thought$1$ he neither looked nor spoke cheerfully; and the 
313:424,30@a   | first possible cause for$4$ it, suggested by$4$ her fears, was, that$3$ 
313:424,31@a   | he had perhaps been communicating his plans to$4$ his 
313:424,32@a   | brother, and was pained by$4$ the manner in$4$ which$6#1$ they had 
313:424,33@a   | been received. 
313:425,01['  ]| They walked together. 
313:425,01@a   | He was silent. She thought$1$ he 
313:425,02@a   | was often looking at her, and trying for$4$ a fuller view$0$ of 
313:425,03@a   | her face$0$ than it suited her to$9$ give. And this belief produced 
313:425,04@a   | another dread$0$. Perhaps he wanted to$9$ speak to$4$ her, 
313:425,05@a   | of his attachment to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet; he might be watching for$4$ 
313:425,06@a   | encouragement to$9$ begin. ~~ She did not, could not, feel 
313:425,07@a   | equal$2$ to$9$ lead$1$ the way to$4$ any such subject$0$. He must do it 
313:425,08@a   | all himself. Yet she could not bear$1$ this silence$0$. With 
313:425,09@a   | him it was most unnatural. 
313:425,09['  ]| She considered ~~ resolved ~~ 
313:425,10['  ]| and, trying to$9$ smile$1$, began ~~ 
313:425,11[A  ]| "You have some news to$9$ hear, now you are come back$5$, 
313:425,12[A  ]| that$6#1$ will$1$ rather surprise$1$ you." 
313:425,13[B  ]| "Have I?" 
313:425,13['  ]| said he quietly, and looking at her; 
313:425,13[B  ]| "of 
313:425,14[B  ]| what nature?" 
313:425,15[A  ]| "Oh! the best nature in$4$ the world ~~ a wedding." 
313:425,16['  ]| After$4$ waiting a moment, as if to$9$ be sure she intended 
313:425,17['  ]| to$9$ say no$2$ more, he replied, 
313:425,18[B  ]| "If you mean$1$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax and $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, I have 
313:425,19[B  ]| heard that$6#2$ already." 
313:425,20[A  ]| "How is it possible?" 
313:425,20['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, turning her glowing 
313:425,21['  ]| cheeks towards him; for$3$ while$3$ she spoke, it occurred 
313:425,22['  ]| to$4$ her that$3$ he might have called at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's in$4$ 
313:425,23['  ]| his way. 
313:425,24[B  ]| "I had a few lines on$4$ parish business from $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
313:425,25[B  ]| this morning, and at the end$0$ of them he gave me a brief 
313:425,26[B  ]| account$0$ of what had happened." 
313:425,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was quite relieved, and could presently say, with 
313:425,28['  ]| a little more composure, 
313:425,29[A  ]| "\You\ probably have been less surprised than any of us, 
313:425,30[A  ]| for$3$ you have had your suspicions. ~~ I have not forgotten 
313:425,31[A  ]| that$3$ you once tried to$9$ give me a caution$0$. ~~ I wish$1$ I had 
313:425,32[A  ]| attended to$4$ it ~~ but ~~ 
313:425,32['  ]| (with a sinking voice and a heavy 
313:425,33['  ]| sigh$0$) 
313:425,33[A  ]| I seem to$9$ have been doomed to$4$ blindness." 
313:425,34['  ]| For$4$ a moment or two nothing was said, and 
313:425,34['  ]| she was 
313:425,35['  ]| unsuspicious of having excited any particular interest$0$, till 
313:425,36['  ]| she found her arm$0$ drawn within his, and pressed against 
313:425,37['  ]| his heart, and heard him thus saying, in$4$ a tone of great 
313:425,38['  ]| sensibility, speaking low, 
313:426,01[B  ]| "Time, my dearest $EM#A$Emma, time will$1$ heal the wound$1#2$. ~~ 
313:426,02[B  ]| Your own$2$ excellent sense ~~ your exertions for$4$ your father's 
313:426,03[B  ]| sake ~~ I know you will$1$ not allow yourself. ~~" 
313:426,03@a   | Her arm$0$ 
313:426,04@a   | was pressed again, as he added, in$4$ a more broken and 
313:426,05@a   | subdued accent, 
313:426,05[B  ]| "The feelings of the warmest friendship 
313:426,06[B  ]| ~~ Indignation ~~ Abominable scoundrel!" 
313:426,06@a   | ~~ And in$4$ a 
313:426,07@a   | louder, steadier tone, he concluded with, 
313:426,07[B  ]| "He will$1$ soon 
313:426,08[B  ]| be gone. They will$1$ soon be in$4$ Yorkshire. I am sorry for$4$ 
313:426,09[B  ]| \her\. She deserves a better fate." 
313:426,10['  ]| $EM#A$Emma understood him; and as soon as she could 
313:426,11['  ]| recover from the flutter of pleasure, excited by$4$ such tender$2$ 
313:426,12['  ]| consideration, replied, 
313:426,13[A  ]| "You are very kind$2$ ~~ but you are mistaken ~~ and 
313:426,14[A  ]| I must set$1$ you right$2#1$. ~~ I am not in$4$ want$0$ of that$6#2$ sort of 
313:426,15[A  ]| compassion. My blindness to$4$ what was going on$5$, led me 
313:426,16[A  ]| to$9$ act$1$ by$4$ them in$4$ a way that$6#1$ I must always be ashamed 
313:426,17[A  ]| of, and I was very foolishly tempted to$9$ say and do many 
313:426,18[A  ]| things which$6#1$ may$1$ well$5$ lay$1#1$ me open$2$ to$4$ unpleasant conjectures$0$, 
313:426,19[A  ]| but I have no$2$ other reason$0$ to$9$ regret$1$ that$3$ I was 
313:426,20[A  ]| not in$4$ the secret$0$ earlier." 
313:426,21[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma!" 
313:426,21['  ]| cried he, looking eagerly at her, 
313:426,21[B  ]| "are you, 
313:426,22[B  ]| indeed?" 
313:426,22['  ]| ~~but checking himself ~~ 
313:426,22[B  ]| "No$7$, no$7$, I understand 
313:426,23[B  ]| you ~~ forgive me ~~ I am pleased that$3$ you can say 
313:426,24[B  ]| even$5$ so$5#1$ much. ~~ He is no$2$ object$0$ of regret$0$, indeed! and 
313:426,25[B  ]| it will$1$ not be very long, I hope$1$, before$3$ that$6#2$ becomes the 
313:426,26[B  ]| acknowledgment of more than your reason$0$. ~~ Fortunate 
313:426,27[B  ]| that$3$ your affections were not farther entangled! ~~ I could 
313:426,28[B  ]| never, I confess, from your manners, assure myself as to$4$ 
313:426,29[B  ]| the degree of what you felt ~~ I could only be certain that$3$ 
313:426,30[B  ]| there was a preference ~~ and a preference which$6#1$ I never 
313:426,31[B  ]| believed him to$9$ deserve. ~~ He is a disgrace$0$ to$4$ the name$0$ 
313:426,32[B  ]| of man. ~~ And is he to$9$ be rewarded with that$6#2$ sweet young 
313:426,33[B  ]| woman? ~~ $EM#J$Jane, $EM#J$Jane, you will$1$ be a miserable creature." 
313:426,34[A  ]| "$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley," 
313:426,34['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, trying to$9$ be lively, but 
313:426,35['  ]| really confused ~~ 
313:426,35[A  ]| "I am in$4$ a very extraordinary situation. 
313:426,36[A  ]| I cannot let you continue in$4$ your error; and yet, perhaps, 
313:426,37[A  ]| since my manners gave such an impression, I have as 
313:426,38[A  ]| much reason$0$ to$9$ be ashamed of confessing that$3$ I never 
313:427,01[A  ]| have been at all attached to$4$ the person we are speaking of, 
313:427,02[A  ]| as it might be natural$2$ for$4$ a woman to$9$ feel in$4$ confessing 
313:427,03[A  ]| exactly the reverse. ~~ But I never have." 
313:427,04@a   | He listened in$4$ perfect$2$ silence$0$. She wished him to$9$ speak, 
313:427,05@a   | but he would not. She supposed she must say more before$3$ 
313:427,06@a   | she were entitled to$4$ his clemency; but it was a hard case 
313:427,07@a   | to$9$ be obliged still$5$ to$9$ lower$1$ herself in$4$ his opinion. 
313:427,07['  ]| She went 
313:427,08['  ]| on$5$, however. 
313:427,09[A  ]| "I have very little to$9$ say for$4$ my own$2$ conduct$0$. ~~ I was 
313:427,10[A  ]| tempted by$4$ his attentions, and allowed myself to$9$ appear 
313:427,11[A  ]| pleased. ~~ An old story, probably ~~ a common$2$ case ~~ and 
313:427,12[A  ]| no$2$ more than has happened to$4$ hundreds of my sex before$5$; 
313:427,13[A  ]| and yet it may$1$ not be the more excusable in$4$ one who$6#1$ sets 
313:427,14[A  ]| up$5$ as I do for$4$ Understanding. Many circumstances assisted 
313:427,15[A  ]| the temptation. He was the son of $EM#N$Mr%*Weston ~~ he was 
313:427,16[A  ]| continually here ~~ I always found him very pleasant ~~ and, 
313:427,17[A  ]| in$4$ short, for$3$ 
313:427,17['  ]| (with a sigh$0$) 
313:427,17[A  ]| let me swell out$5$ the causes ever 
313:427,18[A  ]| so$5#1$ ingeniously, they all centre$1$ in$4$ this at last$0$ ~~ my vanity 
313:427,19[A  ]| was flattered, and I allowed his attentions. Latterly, 
313:427,20[A  ]| however ~~ for$4$ some time, indeed ~~ I have had no$2$ idea of 
313:427,21[A  ]| their meaning any*thing. ~~ I thought$1$ them a habit, 
313:427,22[A  ]| a trick$0$, nothing that$6#1$ called for$4$ seriousness on$4$ my side$0$. 
313:427,23[A  ]| He has imposed on$4$ me, but he has not injured me. I have 
313:427,24[A  ]| never been attached to$4$ him. And now I can tolerably 
313:427,25[A  ]| comprehend his behaviour. He never wished to$9$ attach 
313:427,26[A  ]| me. It was merely a blind$0$ to$9$ conceal his real situation 
313:427,27[A  ]| with another. ~~ It was his object$0$ to$9$ blind$1$ all about$4$ him; 
313:427,28[A  ]| and no*one, I am sure, could be more effectually blinded 
313:427,29[A  ]| than myself ~~ except that$3$ I was \not\ blinded ~~ that$3$ it was 
313:427,30[A  ]| my good fortune ~~ that$3$, in$4$ short, I was somehow or other 
313:427,31[A  ]| safe from him." 
313:427,32@a   | She had hoped for$4$ an answer$0$ here ~~ for$4$ a few words to$9$ 
313:427,33@a   | say that$3$ her conduct$0$ was at least intelligible; but he was 
313:427,34@a   | silent; and, as far as she could judge$1$, deep in$4$ thought$0$. 
313:427,35@a   | At last$0$, and tolerably in$4$ his usual tone, he said, 
313:427,36[B  ]| "I have never had a high opinion of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. ~~ 
313:427,37[B  ]| I can suppose, however, that$3$ I may$1$ have under-rated him. 
313:427,38[B  ]| My acquaintance with him has been but trifling. ~~ And 
313:428,01[B  ]| even$5$ if I have not under-rated him hitherto, he may$1$ yet 
313:428,02[B  ]| turn$1$ out$5$ well$5$. ~~ With such a woman he has a chance$0$. ~~ 
313:428,03[B  ]| I have no$2$ motive for$4$ wishing him ill ~~ and for$4$ her sake, 
313:428,04[B  ]| whose$6#1$ happiness will$1$ be involved in$4$ his good character and 
313:428,05[B  ]| conduct$0$, I shall certainly wish$1$ him well$5$." 
313:428,06[A  ]| "I have no$2$ doubt$0$ of their being$1$ happy together," 
313:428,06['  ]| said 
313:428,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma; 
313:428,07[A  ]| "I believe them to$9$ be very mutually and very 
313:428,08[A  ]| sincerely attached." 
313:428,09[B  ]| "He is a most fortunate man!" 
313:428,09['  ]| returned $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
313:428,10['  ]| with energy. 
313:428,10[B  ]| "So$5#1$ early in$4$ life ~~ at three*and*twenty ~~ a 
313:428,11[B  ]| period when, if a man chooses a wife, he generally chooses 
313:428,12[B  ]| ill. At three*and*twenty to$9$ have drawn such a prize$0$! ~~ 
313:428,13[B  ]| What years of felicity that$6#2$ man, in$4$ all human calculation, 
313:428,14[B  ]| has before$4$ him! ~~ Assured of the love$0$ of such a woman ~~ 
313:428,15[B  ]| the disinterested love$0$, for$3$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's character vouches 
313:428,16[B  ]| for$4$ her disinterestedness; every*thing in$4$ his favour$0$, ~~ 
313:428,17[B  ]| equality of situation ~~ I mean$1$, as far as regards$3$ society, 
313:428,18[B  ]| and all the habits and manners that$6#1$ are important; 
313:428,19[B  ]| equality in$4$ every point$0$ but one ~~ and that$6#2$ one, since the 
313:428,20[B  ]| purity of her heart is not to$9$ be doubted, such as must 
313:428,21[B  ]| increase$1$ his felicity, for$3$ it will$1$ be his to$9$ bestow the only 
313:428,22[B  ]| advantages she wants$1$. ~~ A man would always wish$1$ to$9$ give 
313:428,23[B  ]| a woman a better home than the one he takes her from; 
313:428,24[B  ]| and he who$6#1$ can do it, where there is no$2$ doubt$0$ of \her\ regard$0$, 
313:428,25[B  ]| must, I think, be the happiest of mortals. ~~ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
313:428,26[B  ]| is, indeed, the favourite$0$ of fortune. Every*thing turns$1$ out$5$ 
313:428,27[B  ]| for$4$ his good. ~~ He meets with a young woman at a watering-place, 
313:428,28[B  ]| gains her affection, cannot even$5$ weary her by$4$ 
313:428,29[B  ]| negligent treatment ~~ and had he and all his family sought 
313:428,30[B  ]| round$4$ the world for$4$ a perfect$2$ wife for$4$ him, they could not 
313:428,31[B  ]| have found her superior. ~~ His aunt is in$4$ the way. ~~ His 
313:428,32[B  ]| aunt dies. ~~ He has only to$9$ speak. ~~ His friends are eager 
313:428,33[B  ]| to$9$ promote his happiness. ~~ He has used every*body ill ~~ 
313:428,34[B  ]| and they are all delighted to$9$ forgive him. ~~ He is a fortunate 
313:428,35[B  ]| man indeed!" 
313:428,36[A  ]| "You speak as if you envied him." 
313:428,37[B  ]| "And I do envy$1$ him, $EM#A$Emma. In$4$ one respect$0$ he is the 
313:428,38[B  ]| object$0$ of my envy$0$." 
313:429,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could say no$2$ more. 
313:429,01@a   | They seemed to$9$ be within 
313:429,02@a   | half a sentence of $EM#M$Harriet, and her immediate feeling was 
313:429,03@a   | to$9$ avert the subject$0$, if possible. She made her plan; she 
313:429,04@a   | would speak of something totally different ~~ the children 
313:429,05@a   | in$4$ Brunswick*Square; 
313:429,05['  ]| and she only waited for$4$ breath to$9$ 
313:429,06['  ]| begin, when $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley startled her, by$4$ saying, 
313:429,07[B  ]| "You will$1$ not ask me what is the point$0$ of envy$0$. ~~ 
313:429,08[B  ]| You are determined, I see, to$9$ have no$2$ curiosity. ~~ You are 
313:429,09[B  ]| wise ~~ but \I\ cannot be wise. $EM#A$Emma, I must tell what you 
313:429,10[B  ]| will$1$ not ask, though I may$1$ wish$1$ it unsaid the next moment." 
313:429,11[A  ]| "Oh! then, don't speak it, don't speak it," 
313:429,11['  ]| she eagerly 
313:429,12['  ]| cried. 
313:429,12[A  ]| "Take a little time, consider, do not commit 
313:429,13[A  ]| yourself." 
313:429,14[B  ]| "Thank you," 
313:429,14['  ]| said he, in$4$ an accent of deep mortification, 
313:429,15['  ]| and not another syllable followed. 
313:429,16['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not bear$1$ to$9$ give him pain$0$. 
313:429,16@a   | He was wishing 
313:429,17@a   | to$9$ confide in$4$ her ~~ perhaps to$9$ consult her; ~~ cost$1$ her what 
313:429,18@a   | it would, she would listen. She might assist his resolution, 
313:429,19@a   | or reconcile him to$4$ it; she might give just$2$ praise$0$ to$4$ 
313:429,20@a   | $EM#M$Harriet, or, by$4$ representing to$4$ him his own$2$ independence, 
313:429,21@a   | relieve him from that$6#2$ state$0$ of indecision, which$6#1$ must be 
313:429,22@a   | more intolerable than any alternative to$4$ such a mind$0$ as his. 
313:429,23['  ]| ~~ They had reached the house. 
313:429,24[B  ]| "You are going in$5$, I suppose," 
313:429,24['  ]| said he. 
313:429,25[A  ]| "No$7$" ~~ 
313:429,25['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma ~~ 
313:429,25@a   | quite confirmed by$4$ the depressed 
313:429,26@a   | manner in$4$ which$6#1$ he still$5$ spoke ~~ 
313:429,26[A  ]| "I should like$1$ 
313:429,27[A  ]| to$9$ take another turn$0$. $EM#W$Mr%*Perry is not gone." 
313:429,27['  ]| And, after$4$ 
313:429,28['  ]| proceeding a few steps, she added ~~ 
313:429,28[A  ]| "I stopped you ungraciously, 
313:429,29[A  ]| just$5$ now, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, and, I am afraid, gave 
313:429,30[A  ]| you pain$0$. ~~ But if you have any wish$0$ to$9$ speak openly to$4$ 
313:429,31[A  ]| me as a friend, or to$9$ ask my opinion of any*thing that$6#1$ you 
313:429,32[A  ]| may$1$ have in$4$ contemplation ~~ as a friend, indeed, you may$1$ 
313:429,33[A  ]| command$1$ me. ~~ I will$1$ hear whatever you like$1$. I will$1$ tell 
313:429,34[A  ]| you exactly what I think." 
313:429,35[B  ]| "As a friend!" 
313:429,35['  ]| ~~ repeated $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ 
313:429,35[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma, 
313:429,36[B  ]| that$6#2$ I fear$1$ is a word ~~ No$7$, I have no$2$ wish$0$ ~~ Stay$1$, yes, why 
313:429,37[B  ]| should I hesitate? ~~ I have gone too$5#1$ far already for$4$ concealment. ~~ 
313:429,38[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma, I accept your offer$0$ ~~ Extraordinary 
313:430,01[B  ]| as it may$1$ seem, I accept it, and refer myself to$4$ you as 
313:430,02[B  ]| a friend. ~~ Tell me, then, have I no$2$ chance$0$ of ever succeeding?" 
313:430,03[B  ]| 
313:430,04['  ]| He stopped in$4$ his earnestness to$9$ look$1$ the question$0$, and 
313:430,05['  ]| the expression of his eyes overpowered her. 
313:430,06[B  ]| "My dearest $EM#A$Emma," 
313:430,06['  ]| said he, 
313:430,06[B  ]| "for$3$ dearest you will$1$ 
313:430,07[B  ]| always be, whatever the event of this hour's conversation, 
313:430,08[B  ]| my dearest, most beloved $EM#A$Emma ~~ tell me at once. Say 
313:430,09[B  ]| ""No$7$,"" if it is to$9$ be said." ~~ 
313:430,09['  ]| She could really say nothing. ~~ 
313:430,10[B  ]| "You are silent," 
313:430,10['  ]| he cried, with great animation; 
313:430,10[B  ]| "absolutely 
313:430,11[B  ]| silent! at present$0#1$ I ask no$2$ more." 
313:430,12['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was almost ready to$9$ sink under the agitation of 
313:430,13['  ]| this moment. 
313:430,13@a   | The dread$0$ of being$1$ awakened from the 
313:430,14@a   | happiest dream$0$, was perhaps the most prominent feeling. 
313:430,15[B  ]| "I cannot make$1$ speeches, $EM#A$Emma:" ~~ 
313:430,15['  ]| he soon resumed; 
313:430,16@a   | and in$4$ a tone of such sincere, decided, intelligible 
313:430,17@a   | tenderness as was tolerably convincing. ~~ 
313:430,17[B  ]| "If I loved you 
313:430,18[B  ]| less, I might be able to$9$ talk$1$ about$4$ it more. But you know 
313:430,19[B  ]| what I am. ~~ You hear nothing but truth from me. ~~ 
313:430,20[B  ]| I have blamed you, and lectured you, and you have borne 
313:430,21[B  ]| it as no$2$ other woman in$4$ England would have borne it. ~~ 
313:430,22[B  ]| Bear$1$ with the truths I would tell you now, dearest $EM#A$Emma, 
313:430,23[B  ]| as well$5$ as you have borne with them. The manner, 
313:430,24[B  ]| perhaps, may$1$ have as little to$9$ recommend them. God 
313:430,25[B  ]| knows, I have been a very indifferent lover. ~~ But you 
313:430,26[B  ]| understand me. ~~ Yes, you see, you understand my 
313:430,27[B  ]| feelings ~~ and will$1$ return$1$ them if you can. At present$0#1$, 
313:430,28[B  ]| I ask only to$9$ hear, once to$9$ hear your voice." 
313:430,29['  ]| While$3$ he spoke, $EM#A$Emma's mind$0$ was most busy, and, 
313:430,30['  ]| with all the wonderful velocity of thought$0$, had been able 
313:430,31['  ]| ~~ and yet without losing a word ~~ to$9$ catch$1$ and comprehend 
313:430,32['  ]| the exact$2$ truth of the whole$0$; 
313:430,32@a   | to$9$ see that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's 
313:430,33@a   | hopes$0$ had been entirely groundless, a mistake$0$, a delusion, 
313:430,34@a   | as complete$2$ a delusion as any of her own$2$ ~~ that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet 
313:430,35@a   | was nothing; that$3$ she was every*thing herself; that$3$ 
313:430,36@a   | what she had been saying relative to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet had been all 
313:430,37@a   | taken as the language of her own$2$ feelings; and that$3$ her 
313:430,38@a   | agitation, her doubts$0$, her reluctance, her discouragement, 
313:431,01@a   | had been all received as discouragement from herself. ~~ 
313:431,02['  ]| And not only was there time for$4$ these convictions, with 
313:431,03['  ]| all their glow of attendant happiness; there was time 
313:431,04['  ]| also to$9$ rejoice that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet's secret$0$ had not escaped her, 
313:431,05['  ]| and to$9$ resolve$1$ that$3$ it need$1$ not and should not. ~~ It was 
313:431,06['  ]| all the service she could now render her poor friend; for$3$ 
313:431,07['  ]| as to$4$ any of that$6#2$ heroism of sentiment which$6#1$ might have 
313:431,08['  ]| prompted her to$9$ entreat him to$9$ transfer$1$ his affection from 
313:431,09['  ]| herself to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, as infinitely the most worthy of the two ~~ 
313:431,10['  ]| or even$5$ the more simple$2$ sublimity of resolving to$9$ refuse 
313:431,11['  ]| him at once and for*ever, without vouchsafing any motive, 
313:431,12['  ]| because he could not marry them both, $EM#A$Emma had it not. 
313:431,13['  ]| She felt for$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, with pain$0$ and with contrition; but 
313:431,14['  ]| no$2$ flight of generosity run$1$ mad, opposing all that$6#1$ could be 
313:431,15['  ]| probable or reasonable, entered her brain. 
313:431,15@a   | She had led 
313:431,16@a   | her friend astray, and it would be a reproach$0$ to$4$ her for*ever; 
313:431,17['  ]| but her judgment was as strong as her feelings, and 
313:431,18['  ]| as strong as it had ever been before$5$, in$4$ reprobating any 
313:431,19['  ]| such alliance for$4$ him, as most unequal and degrading. 
313:431,20['  ]| Her way was clear$2$, though not quite smooth$2$. ~~ She spoke 
313:431,21['  ]| then, on$4$ being$1$ so$5#1$ entreated. ~~ What did she say? ~~ Just$5$ 
313:431,22['  ]| what she ought, of course$8$. A lady always does. ~~ She 
313:431,23['  ]| said enough to$9$ show$1$ there need$1$ not be despair$0$ ~~ and to$9$ 
313:431,24['  ]| invite him to$9$ say more himself. 
313:431,24@b   | He \had\ despaired at one 
313:431,25@b   | period; he had received such an injunction to$4$ caution$0$ and 
313:431,26@b   | silence$0$, as for$4$ the time crushed every hope$0$; ~~ she had 
313:431,27@b   | begun by$4$ refusing to$9$ hear him. ~~ 
313:431,27['  ]| The change$0$ had perhaps 
313:431,28['  ]| been somewhat sudden$2$; ~~ her proposal of taking another 
313:431,29['  ]| turn$0$, her renewing the conversation which$6#1$ she had just$5$ 
313:431,30['  ]| put an end$0$ to$4$, might be a little extraordinary! ~~ She felt 
313:431,31['  ]| its inconsistency; but $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was so$5#1$ obliging 
313:431,32['  ]| as to$9$ put up$5$ with it, and seek no$2$ farther explanation. 
313:431,33['  ]| Seldom, very seldom, does complete$2$ truth belong to$4$ any 
313:431,34['  ]| human disclosure; seldom can it happen that$3$ something 
313:431,35['  ]| is not a little disguised, or a little mistaken; but where, 
313:431,36['  ]| as in$4$ this case, though the conduct$0$ is mistaken, the feelings 
313:431,37['  ]| are not, it may$1$ not be very material$2$. ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
313:431,38['  ]| could not impute to$4$ $EM#A$Emma a more relenting heart 
313:432,01['  ]| than she possessed, or a heart more disposed to$9$ accept 
313:432,02['  ]| of his. 
313:432,03['  ]| He had, in$4$ fact, been wholly unsuspicious of his own$2$ 
313:432,04['  ]| influence$0$. He had followed her into the shrubbery with 
313:432,05['  ]| no$2$ idea of trying it. He had come, in$4$ his anxiety to$9$ see 
313:432,06['  ]| how she bore$1#1$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's engagement, with no$2$ 
313:432,07['  ]| selfish view$0$, no$2$ view$0$ at all, but of endeavouring, if she 
313:432,08['  ]| allowed him an opening, to$9$ soothe or to$9$ counsel$1$ her. ~~ 
313:432,09['  ]| The rest$0#1$ had been the work$0$ of the moment, the immediate 
313:432,10['  ]| effect$0$ of what he heard, on$4$ his feelings. The delightful 
313:432,11['  ]| assurance of her total indifference towards $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, 
313:432,12['  ]| of her having a heart completely disengaged from him, 
313:432,13['  ]| had given birth$0#1$ to$4$ the hope$0$, that$3$, in$4$ time, he might gain$1$ 
313:432,14['  ]| her affection himself; ~~ but it had been no$2$ present$2$ hope$0$ ~~ 
313:432,15['  ]| he had only, in$4$ the momentary conquest of eagerness over 
313:432,16['  ]| judgment, aspired to$9$ be told that$3$ she did not forbid his 
313:432,17['  ]| attempt$0$ to$9$ attach her. ~~ The superior hopes$0$ which$6#1$ gradually 
313:432,18['  ]| opened were so$5#1$ much the more enchanting. ~~ The 
313:432,19['  ]| affection, which$6#1$ he had been asking to$9$ be allowed to$9$ 
313:432,20['  ]| create if he could, was already his! ~~ Within half an hour, 
313:432,21['  ]| he had passed from a thoroughly distressed state$0$ of mind$0$, 
313:432,22['  ]| to$4$ something so$5#1$ like$4$ perfect$2$ happiness, that$3$ it could bear$1$ 
313:432,23['  ]| no$2$ other name$0$. 
313:432,24['  ]| \Her\ change$0$ was equal$2$. ~~ This one half hour had given 
313:432,25['  ]| to$4$ each the same precious certainty of being$1$ beloved, had 
313:432,26['  ]| cleared from each the same degree of ignorance, jealousy, 
313:432,27['  ]| or distrust$0$. ~~ On$4$ his side$0$, there had been a long-standing 
313:432,28['  ]| jealousy, old as the arrival, or even$5$ the expectation, of 
313:432,29['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. ~~ He had been in$4$ love$0$ with $EM#A$Emma, and 
313:432,30['  ]| jealous of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, from about$4$ the same period, 
313:432,31['  ]| one sentiment having probably enlightened him as to$4$ the 
313:432,32['  ]| other. It was his jealousy of $EM#E$Frank*Churchill that$6#1$ had 
313:432,33['  ]| taken him from the country. ~~ 
313:432,33['  ]| The Box-Hill party had 
313:432,34['  ]| decided him on$4$ going away. He would save$1$ himself from 
313:432,35['  ]| witnessing again such permitted, encouraged attentions. 
313:432,36['  ]| ~~ He had gone to$9$ learn to$9$ be indifferent. ~~ But he had 
313:432,37['  ]| gone to$4$ a wrong place$0$. There was too$5#1$ much domestic$2$ 
313:432,38['  ]| happiness in$4$ his brother's house; woman wore too$5#1$ 
313:433,01['  ]| amiable a form$0$ in$4$ it; $EM#L$Isabella was too$5#1$ much like$4$ $EM#A$Emma 
313:433,02['  ]| ~~ differing only in$4$ those striking inferiorities, which$6#1$ always 
313:433,03['  ]| brought the other in$4$ brilliancy before$4$ him, for$4$ much to$9$ 
313:433,04['  ]| have been done, even$5$ had his time been longer. ~~ He had 
313:433,05['  ]| staid on$5$, however, vigorously, day after$4$ day ~~ till this 
313:433,06['  ]| very morning's post had conveyed the history of $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax. ~~ 
313:433,07['  ]| Then, with the gladness which$6#1$ must be felt, 
313:433,08['  ]| nay, which$6#1$ he did not scruple$1$ to$9$ feel, having never believed 
313:433,09['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill to$9$ be at all deserving $EM#A$Emma, was 
313:433,10['  ]| there so$5#1$ much fond solicitude, so$5#1$ much keen anxiety for$4$ 
313:433,11['  ]| her, that$3$ he could stay$1$ no$2$ longer. He had ridden home 
313:433,12['  ]| through$4$ the rain$0$; and had walked up$5$ directly after$4$ 
313:433,13['  ]| dinner, to$9$ see how this sweetest and best of all creatures, 
313:433,14['  ]| faultless in$4$ spite$8$ of all her faults, bore$1#1$ the discovery. 
313:433,15['  ]| He had found her agitated and low. 
313:433,15@b   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
313:433,16@b   | was a villain. ~~ 
313:433,16['  ]| He heard her declare that$3$ she had never 
313:433,17['  ]| loved him. 
313:433,17@b   | $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's character was not desperate. 
313:433,18['  ]| ~~ She was his own$2$ $EM#A$Emma, by$4$ hand$0$ and word, when they 
313:433,19['  ]| returned into the house; and if he could have thought$1$ of 
313:433,20['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill then, he might have deemed him a very 
313:433,21['  ]| good sort of fellow. 
314:434,01['  ]| What totally different feelings did $EM#A$Emma take back$5$ 
314:434,02['  ]| into the house from what she had brought out$5$! ~~ she had 
314:434,03['  ]| then been only daring to$9$ hope$1$ for$4$ a little respite of suffering; ~~ 
314:434,04['  ]| she was now in$4$ an exquisite flutter of happiness, and 
314:434,05['  ]| such happiness moreover as she believed must still$5$ be 
314:434,06['  ]| greater when the flutter should have passed away. 
314:434,07['  ]| They sat down$5$ to$4$ tea ~~ the same party round$4$ the same 
314:434,08['  ]| table ~~ 
314:434,08@a   | how often it had been collected! ~~ and how often 
314:434,09@a   | had her eyes fallen on$4$ the same shrubs in$4$ the lawn, and 
314:434,10@a   | observed the same beautiful effect$0$ of the western sun! ~~ 
314:434,11@a   | But never in$4$ such a state$0$ of spirits, never in$4$ anything 
314:434,12@a   | like$4$ it; 
314:434,12['  ]| and it was with difficulty that$3$ she could summon 
314:434,13['  ]| enough of her usual self to$9$ be the attentive lady of the 
314:434,14['  ]| house, or even$5$ the attentive daughter. 
314:434,15['  ]| Poor $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse little suspected what was plotting 
314:434,16['  ]| against him in$4$ the breast of that$6#2$ man whom$6#1$ he was so$5#1$ 
314:434,17['  ]| cordially welcoming, and so$5#1$ anxiously hoping might not 
314:434,18['  ]| have taken cold$0$ from his ride$0$. ~~ Could he have seen the 
314:434,19['  ]| heart, he would have cared very little for$4$ the lungs; but 
314:434,20['  ]| without the most distant imagination of the impending 
314:434,21['  ]| evil, without the slightest perception of anything extraordinary 
314:434,22['  ]| in$4$ the looks$0$ or ways of either, he repeated to$4$ 
314:434,23['  ]| them very comfortably all the articles of news he had 
314:434,24['  ]| received from $EM#W$Mr%*Perry, and talked on$5$ with much self-contentment, 
314:434,25['  ]| totally unsuspicious of what they could have 
314:434,26['  ]| told him in$4$ return$0$. 
314:434,27['  ]| As long as $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley remained with them, $EM#A$Emma's 
314:434,28['  ]| fever continued; but when he was gone, she began to$9$ be 
314:434,29['  ]| a little tranquillized and subdued ~~ and in$4$ the course$0$ of the 
314:434,30['  ]| sleepless night, which$6#1$ was the tax$0$ for$4$ such an evening, 
314:434,31['  ]| she found one or two such very serious$2$ points to$9$ consider, 
314:434,32['  ]| as made her feel, that$3$ even$5$ her happiness must have some 
314:434,33['  ]| alloy. Her father ~~ and $EM#M$Harriet. She could not be alone 
314:435,01['  ]| without feeling the full weight of their separate$2$ claims; and 
314:435,02['  ]| how to$9$ guard$1$ the comfort$0$ of both to$4$ the utmost, was the 
314:435,03['  ]| question$0$. With respect$0$ to$4$ her father, it was a question$0$ 
314:435,04['  ]| soon answered. She hardly knew yet what $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
314:435,05['  ]| would ask; but a very short parley with her own$2$ heart 
314:435,06['  ]| produced the most solemn resolution of never quitting her 
314:435,07['  ]| father. ~~ She even$5$ wept over the idea of it, as a sin of 
314:435,08['  ]| thought$1$. 
314:435,08@a   | While$3$ he lived, it must be only an engagement; 
314:435,09@a   | but she flattered herself, that$3$ if divested of the danger 
314:435,10@a   | of drawing her away, it might become an increase$0$ of 
314:435,11@a   | comfort$0$ to$4$ him. ~~ How to$9$ do her best by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet, was of 
314:435,12@a   | more difficult decision; ~~ how to$9$ spare$1$ her from any 
314:435,13@a   | unnecessary pain$0$; how to$9$ make$1$ her any possible atonement; 
314:435,14@a   | how to$9$ appear least her enemy? ~~ 
314:435,14['  ]| On$4$ these 
314:435,15['  ]| subjects, her perplexity and distress$0$ were very great ~~ 
314:435,16['  ]| and her mind$0$ had to$9$ pass$1$ again and again through$4$ every 
314:435,17['  ]| bitter reproach$0$ and sorrowful regret$0$ that$3$ had ever surrounded 
314:435,18['  ]| it. ~~ She could only resolve$1$ at last$0$, that$3$ 
314:435,18@a   | she would 
314:435,19@a   | still$5$ avoid a meeting with her, and communicate all that$6#1$ 
314:435,20@a   | need$1$ be told by$4$ letter; that$3$ it would be inexpressibly 
314:435,21@a   | desirable to$9$ have her removed just$5$ now for$4$ a time from 
314:435,22@a   | Highbury, and ~~ 
314:435,22['  ]| indulging in$4$ one scheme$0$ more ~~ 
314:435,22@a   | nearly 
314:435,23@a   | resolve$1$, that$3$ it might be practicable to$9$ get an invitation 
314:435,24@a   | for$4$ her to$4$ Brunswick*Square. ~~ $EM#L$Isabella had been pleased 
314:435,25@a   | with $EM#M$Harriet; and a few weeks spent in$4$ London must 
314:435,26@a   | give her some amusement. ~~ She did not think it in$4$ 
314:435,27@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's nature to$9$ escape$1$ being$1$ benefited by$4$ novelty and 
314:435,28@a   | variety, by$4$ the streets, the shops, and the children. ~~ At 
314:435,29@a   | any rate$0$, it would be a proof of attention and kindness in$4$ 
314:435,30@a   | herself, from whom$6#1$ every*thing was due$2$; a separation 
314:435,31@a   | for$4$ the present$0#1$; an averting of the evil day, when they 
314:435,32@a   | must all be together again. 
314:435,33['  ]| She rose$1$ early, and wrote her letter to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet; an 
314:435,34['  ]| employment which$6#1$ left her so$5#1$ very serious$2$, so$5#1$ nearly sad, 
314:435,35['  ]| that$3$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, in$4$ walking up$5$ to$4$ Hartfield to$4$ breakfast$0$, 
314:435,36['  ]| did not arrive at all too$5#1$ soon; and half an hour 
314:435,37['  ]| stolen afterwards to$9$ go over the same ground again with 
314:435,38['  ]| him, literally and figuratively, was quite necessary to$9$ 
314:436,01['  ]| reinstate her in$4$ a proper share$0$ of the happiness of the 
314:436,02['  ]| evening before$5$. 
314:436,03['  ]| He had not left her long, by$4$ no$2$ means$0$ long enough for$4$ 
314:436,04['  ]| her to$9$ have the slightest inclination for$4$ thinking of anybody 
314:436,05['  ]| else, when a letter was brought her from Randall's 
314:436,06['  ]| ~~ a very thick letter; ~~ she guessed what it must contain, 
314:436,07['  ]| and deprecated the necessity of reading it. ~~ 
314:436,07@a   | She was now 
314:436,08@a   | in$4$ perfect$2$ charity with $EM#E$Frank*Churchill; she wanted no$2$ 
314:436,09@a   | explanations, she wanted only to$9$ have her thoughts to$4$ 
314:436,10@a   | herself ~~ and as for$4$ understanding any*thing he wrote, she 
314:436,11@a   | was sure she was incapable of it. ~~ It must be waded 
314:436,12@a   | through$5$, however. 
314:436,12['  ]| She opened the packet; 
314:436,12@a   | it was too$5#1$ 
314:436,13@a   | surely so$5#2$; ~~ a note$0$ from $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston to$4$ herself, ushered 
314:436,14@a   | in$4$ the letter from $EM#E$Frank to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
314:436,15[O  ]| "I have the greatest pleasure, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ 
314:436,16[O  ]| forwarding to$4$ you the enclosed. I know what thorough 
314:436,17[O  ]| justice you will$1$ do it, and have scarcely a doubt$0$ of its 
314:436,18[O  ]| happy effect$0$. ~~ I think we shall never materially disagree 
314:436,19[O  ]| about$4$ the writer again; but I will$1$ not delay$1$ you by$4$ a long 
314:436,20[O  ]| preface. ~~ We are quite well$5$. ~~ This letter has been the 
314:436,21[O  ]| cure$0$ of all the little nervousness I have been feeling lately. 
314:436,22[O  ]| ~~ I did not quite like$1$ your looks$0$ on$4$ Tuesday, but it was 
314:436,23[O  ]| an ungenial morning; and though you will$1$ never own$1$ 
314:436,24[O  ]| being$1$ affected by$4$ weather, I think every*body feels 
314:436,25[O  ]| a north-east wind. ~~ I felt for$4$ your dear$2#1$ father very much 
314:436,26[O  ]| in$4$ the storm$0$ of Tuesday afternoon and yesterday morning, 
314:436,27[O  ]| but had the comfort$0$ of hearing last$2$ night, by$4$ $EM#W$Mr%*Perry, 
314:436,28[O  ]| that$3$ it had not made him ill. 
314:436,29[O  ]| "Your's ever, 
314:436,30[O  ]| "$EM#O$A%*W%" 
314:436,31['  ]| \{To$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston.}\ 
314:436,32[E  ]| Windsor ~~ July. 
314:436,33[E  ]| MY DEAR$2#1$ MADAM, 
314:436,34[E  ]| "If I made myself intelligible yesterday, this letter will$1$ 
314:436,35[E  ]| be expected; but expected or not, I know it will$1$ be read 
314:436,36[E  ]| with candour and indulgence. ~~ You are all goodness, and 
314:436,37[E  ]| I believe there will$1$ be need$0$ of even$5$ all your goodness to$9$ 
314:436,38[E  ]| allow for$4$ some parts of my past$2$ conduct$0$. ~~ But I have been 
314:437,01[E  ]| forgiven by$4$ one who$6#1$ had still$5$ more to$9$ resent. My courage 
314:437,02[E  ]| rises while$3$ I write. It is very difficult for$4$ the prosperous 
314:437,03[E  ]| to$9$ be humble$2$. I have already met with such success in$4$ 
314:437,04[E  ]| two applications for$4$ pardon$0$, that$3$ I may$1$ be in$4$ danger of 
314:437,05[E  ]| thinking myself too$5#1$ sure of your's, and of those among 
314:437,06[E  ]| your friends who$6#1$ have had any ground of offence. ~~ You 
314:437,07[E  ]| must all endeavour$1$ to$9$ comprehend the exact$2$ nature of 
314:437,08[E  ]| my situation when I first arrived at Randall's; you must 
314:437,09[E  ]| consider me as having a secret$0$ which$6#1$ was to$9$ be kept at all 
314:437,10[E  ]| hazards. This was the fact. My right$0$ to$9$ place$1$ myself in$4$ 
314:437,11[E  ]| a situation requiring such concealment, is another question$0$. 
314:437,12[E  ]| I shall not discuss it here. For$4$ my temptation to$9$ \think\ 
314:437,13[E  ]| it a right$0$, I refer every caviller to$4$ a brick house, sashed 
314:437,14[E  ]| windows below, and casements above$5$, in$4$ Highbury. 
314:437,15[E  ]| I dared not address$1$ her openly; my difficulties in$4$ the 
314:437,16[E  ]| then state$0$ of Enscombe must be too$5#1$ well$5$ known to$9$ require 
314:437,17[E  ]| definition; and I was fortunate enough to$9$ prevail, before$3$ 
314:437,18[E  ]| we parted at Weymouth, and to$9$ induce the most upright 
314:437,19[E  ]| female$2$ mind$0$ in$4$ the creation to$9$ stoop in$4$ charity to$4$ a secret$2$ 
314:437,20[E  ]| engagement. ~~ Had she refused, I should have gone mad. 
314:437,21[E  ]| ~~ But you will$1$ be ready to$9$ say, what was your hope$0$ in$4$ 
314:437,22[E  ]| doing this? ~~ What did you look$1$ forward$5$ to$4$? ~~ To$4$ any*thing, 
314:437,23[E  ]| every*thing ~~ to$4$ time, chance$0$, circumstance, slow 
314:437,24[E  ]| effects, sudden$2$ bursts, perseverance and weariness, health 
314:437,25[E  ]| and sickness. Every possibility of good was before$4$ me, 
314:437,26[E  ]| and the first of blessings secured, in$4$ obtaining her promises$0$ 
314:437,27[E  ]| of faith and correspondence. If you need$1$ farther explanation, 
314:437,28[E  ]| I have the honour$0$, my dear$2#1$ madam, of being$1$ 
314:437,29[E  ]| your husband's son, and the advantage of inheriting a disposition 
314:437,30[E  ]| to$9$ hope$1$ for$4$ good, which$6#1$ no$2$ inheritance of houses 
314:437,31[E  ]| or lands can ever equal$1$ the value$0$ of. ~~ See me, then, 
314:437,32[E  ]| under these circumstances, arriving on$4$ my first visit$0$ to$4$ 
314:437,33[E  ]| Randall's; ~~ and here I am conscious of wrong, for$3$ that$6#2$ 
314:437,34[E  ]| visit$0$ might have been sooner paid. You will$1$ look$1$ back$5$ 
314:437,35[E  ]| and see that$3$ I did not come till $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax was in$4$ 
314:437,36[E  ]| Highbury; and as \you\ were the person slighted, you will$1$ 
314:437,37[E  ]| forgive me instantly; but I must work$1$ on$4$ my father's 
314:437,38[E  ]| compassion, by$4$ reminding him, that$3$ so$5#1$ long as I absented 
314:438,01[E  ]| myself from his house, so$5#1$ long I lost the blessing of knowing 
314:438,02[E  ]| you. My behaviour, during the very happy fortnight 
314:438,03[E  ]| which$6#1$ I spent with you, did not, I hope$1$, lay$1#1$ me open$2$ to$4$ 
314:438,04[E  ]| reprehension, excepting on$4$ one point$0$. And now I come 
314:438,05[E  ]| to$4$ the principal$2$, the only important part$0$ of my conduct$0$ 
314:438,06[E  ]| while$4$ belonging to$4$ you, which$6#1$ excites my own$2$ anxiety, 
314:438,07[E  ]| or requires very solicitous explanation. With the greatest 
314:438,08[E  ]| respect$0$, and the warmest friendship, do I mention$1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse; 
314:438,09[E  ]| my father perhaps will$1$ think I ought to$9$ 
314:438,10[E  ]| add, with the deepest humiliation. ~~ A few words which$6#1$ 
314:438,11[E  ]| dropped from him yesterday spoke his opinion, and some 
314:438,12[E  ]| censure$0$ I acknowledge myself liable to$4$. ~~ My behaviour 
314:438,13[E  ]| to$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse indicated, I believe, more than it 
314:438,14[E  ]| ought. ~~ In$4$ order to$9$ assist a concealment so$5#1$ essential to$4$ me, 
314:438,15[E  ]| I was led on$5$ to$9$ make$1$ more than an allowable use$0$ of the 
314:438,16[E  ]| sort of intimacy into which$6#1$ we were immediately thrown. 
314:438,17[E  ]| ~~ I cannot deny that$3$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse was my ostensible 
314:438,18[E  ]| object$0$ ~~ but I am sure you will$1$ believe the declaration, 
314:438,19[E  ]| that$3$ had I not been convinced of her indifference, I would 
314:438,20[E  ]| not have been induced by$4$ any selfish views to$9$ go on$5$. ~~ 
314:438,21[E  ]| Amiable and delightful as $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse is, she never 
314:438,22[E  ]| gave me the idea of a young woman likely to$9$ be attached; 
314:438,23[E  ]| and that$3$ she was perfectly free from any tendency to$9$ 
314:438,24[E  ]| being$1$ attached to$4$ me, was as much my conviction as my 
314:438,25[E  ]| wish$0$. ~~ She received my attentions with an easy, friendly, 
314:438,26[E  ]| goodhumoured playfulness, which$6#1$ exactly suited me. We 
314:438,27[E  ]| seemed to$9$ understand each other. From our relative 
314:438,28[E  ]| situation, those attentions were her due$0$, and were felt to$9$ 
314:438,29[E  ]| be so$5#2$. ~~ Whether $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse began really to$9$ understand 
314:438,30[E  ]| me before$4$ the expiration of that$6#2$ fortnight, I cannot 
314:438,31[E  ]| say; ~~ when I called to$9$ take leave$0$ of her, I remember that$3$ 
314:438,32[E  ]| I was within a moment of confessing the truth, and I then 
314:438,33[E  ]| fancied she was not without suspicion; but I have no$2$ 
314:438,34[E  ]| doubt$0$ of her having since detected me, at least in$4$ some 
314:438,35[E  ]| degree. ~~ She may$1$ not have surmised the whole$0$, but her 
314:438,36[E  ]| quickness must have penetrated a part$0$. I cannot doubt$1$ it. 
314:438,37[E  ]| You will$1$ find, whenever the subject$0$ becomes freed from 
314:438,38[E  ]| its present$2$ restraints, that$3$ it did not take her wholly 
314:439,01[E  ]| by$4$ surprise$0$. She frequently gave me hints of it. I remember 
314:439,02[E  ]| her telling me at the ball$0#2$, that$3$ I owed $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton 
314:439,03[E  ]| gratitude for$4$ her attentions to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. ~~ I hope$1$ this 
314:439,04[E  ]| history of my conduct$0$ towards her will$1$ be admitted by$4$ 
314:439,05[E  ]| you and my father as great extenuation of what you saw 
314:439,06[E  ]| amiss. While$3$ you considered me as having sinned against 
314:439,07[E  ]| $EM#A$Emma*Woodhouse, I could deserve nothing from either. 
314:439,08[E  ]| Acquit me here, and procure for$4$ me, when it is allowable, 
314:439,09[E  ]| the acquittal and good wishes$0$ of that$6#2$ said $EM#A$Emma*Woodhouse, 
314:439,10[E  ]| whom$6#1$ I regard$1$ with so$5#1$ much brotherly affection, 
314:439,11[E  ]| as to$9$ long to$9$ have her as deeply and as happily in$4$ love$0$ as 
314:439,12[E  ]| myself. ~~ Whatever strange things I said or did during 
314:439,13[E  ]| that$6#2$ fortnight, you have now a key to$4$. My heart was in$4$ 
314:439,14[E  ]| Highbury, and my business was to$9$ get my body thither 
314:439,15[E  ]| as often as might be, and with the least suspicion. If you 
314:439,16[E  ]| remember any queerness, set$1$ them all to$4$ the right$2#1$ 
314:439,17[E  ]| account$0$. ~~ Of the pianoforte= so$5#1$ much talked of, I feel it 
314:439,18[E  ]| only necessary to$9$ say, that$3$ its being$1$ ordered was absolutely 
314:439,19[E  ]| unknown to$4$ $EM#J$Miss%*F**, who$6#1$ would never have allowed 
314:439,20[E  ]| me to$9$ send it, had any choice$0$ been given her. ~~ The 
314:439,21[E  ]| delicacy of her mind$0$ throughout the whole$2$ engagement, 
314:439,22[E  ]| my dear$2#1$ madam, is much beyond$4$ my power of doing 
314:439,23[E  ]| justice to$4$. You will$1$ soon, I earnestly hope$1$, know her 
314:439,24[E  ]| thoroughly yourself. ~~ No$2$ description can describe her. 
314:439,25[E  ]| She must tell you herself what she is ~~ yet not by$4$ word, 
314:439,26[E  ]| for$3$ never was there a human creature who$6#1$ would so$5#1$ 
314:439,27[E  ]| designedly suppress her own$2$ merit$0$. ~~ Since I began this 
314:439,28[E  ]| letter, which$6#1$ will$1$ be longer than I foresaw, I have heard 
314:439,29[E  ]| from her. ~~ She gives a good account$0$ of her own$2$ health; 
314:439,30[E  ]| but as she never complains, I dare$1#2$ not depend. I want$1$ 
314:439,31[E  ]| to$9$ have your opinion of her looks$0$. I know you will$1$ soon 
314:439,32[E  ]| call$1$ on$4$ her; she is living in$4$ dread$0$ of the visit$0$. Perhaps 
314:439,33[E  ]| it is paid already. Let me hear from you without delay$0$; 
314:439,34[E  ]| I am impatient for$4$ a thousand particulars. Remember 
314:439,35[E  ]| how few minutes I was at Randall's, and in$4$ how bewildered, 
314:439,36[E  ]| how mad a state$0$: and I am not much better 
314:439,37[E  ]| yet; still$5$ insane either from happiness or misery. When 
314:439,38[E  ]| I think of the kindness and favour$0$ I have met with, of 
314:440,01[E  ]| her excellence and patience, and my uncle's generosity, 
314:440,02[E  ]| I am mad with joy: but when I recollect all the uneasiness 
314:440,03[E  ]| I occasioned her, and how little I deserve to$9$ be 
314:440,04[E  ]| forgiven, I am mad with anger$0$. If I could but see her 
314:440,05[E  ]| again! ~~ But I must not propose it yet. My uncle has 
314:440,06[E  ]| been too$5#1$ good for$4$ me to$9$ encroach. ~~ I must still$5$ add to$4$ 
314:440,07[E  ]| this long letter. You have not heard all that$6#1$ you ought 
314:440,08[E  ]| to$9$ hear. I could not give any connected detail$0$ yesterday; 
314:440,09[E  ]| but the suddenness, and, in$4$ one light$0$, the unseasonableness, 
314:440,10[E  ]| with which$6#1$ the affair burst$1$ out$5$, needs explanation; 
314:440,11[E  ]| for$3$ though the event of the 26th ult%, as you will$1$ conclude, 
314:440,12[E  ]| immediately opened to$4$ me the happiest prospects, I should 
314:440,13[E  ]| not have presumed on$4$ such early measures, but from the 
314:440,14[E  ]| very particular circumstances, which$6#1$ left me not an hour 
314:440,15[E  ]| to$9$ lose. I should myself have shrunk from any*thing so$5#1$ 
314:440,16[E  ]| hasty, and she would have felt every scruple$0$ of mine$6$ with 
314:440,17[E  ]| multiplied strength and refinement. ~~ But I had no$2$ 
314:440,18[E  ]| choice$0$. The hasty engagement she had entered into with 
314:440,19[E  ]| that$6#2$ woman ~~ Here, my dear$2#1$ madam, I was obliged to$9$ 
314:440,20[E  ]| leave$1$ off abruptly, to$9$ recollect and compose myself. ~~ 
314:440,21[E  ]| I have been walking over the country, and am now, 
314:440,22[E  ]| I hope$1$, rational enough to$9$ make$1$ the rest$0#1$ of my letter 
314:440,23[E  ]| what it ought to$9$ be. ~~ It is, in$4$ fact, a most mortifying 
314:440,24[E  ]| retrospect for$4$ me. I behaved shamefully. And here 
314:440,25[E  ]| I can admit, that$3$ my manners to$4$ $EM#A$Miss*W%, in$4$ being$1$ unpleasant 
314:440,26[E  ]| to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*F%, were highly blamable. \She\ disapproved 
314:440,27[E  ]| them, which$6#1$ ought to$9$ have been enough. ~~ My 
314:440,28[E  ]| plea of concealing the truth she did not think sufficient. 
314:440,29[E  ]| ~~ She was displeased; I thought$1$ unreasonably so$5#2$; 
314:440,30[E  ]| I thought$1$ her, on$4$ a thousand occasions, unnecessarily 
314:440,31[E  ]| scrupulous and cautious: I thought$1$ her even$5$ cold$2$. But 
314:440,32[E  ]| she was always right$2#1$. If I had followed her judgment, and 
314:440,33[E  ]| subdued my spirits to$4$ the level of what she deemed proper, 
314:440,34[E  ]| I should have escaped the greatest unhappiness I have 
314:440,35[E  ]| ever known. ~~ We quarrelled. ~~ Do you remember the 
314:440,36[E  ]| morning spent at Donwell? ~~ \There\ every little dissatisfaction 
314:440,37[E  ]| that$6#1$ had occurred before$5$ came to$4$ a crisis. I was 
314:440,38[E  ]| late; I met her walking home by$4$ herself, and wanted to$9$ 
314:441,01[E  ]| walk$1$ with her, but she would not suffer it. She absolutely 
314:441,02[E  ]| refused to$9$ allow me, which$6#1$ I then thought$1$ most unreasonable. 
314:441,03[E  ]| Now, however, I see nothing in$4$ it but a very 
314:441,04[E  ]| natural$2$ and consistent degree of discretion. While$3$ I, to$9$ 
314:441,05[E  ]| blind$1$ the world to$4$ our engagement, was behaving one 
314:441,06[E  ]| hour with objectionable particularity to$4$ another woman, 
314:441,07[E  ]| was she to$9$ be consenting the next to$4$ a proposal which$6#1$ 
314:441,08[E  ]| might have made every previous caution$0$ useless? ~~ Had 
314:441,09[E  ]| we been met walking together between Donwell and 
314:441,10[E  ]| Highbury, the truth must have been suspected. ~~ I was 
314:441,11[E  ]| mad enough, however, to$9$ resent. ~~ I doubted her affection. 
314:441,12[E  ]| I doubted it more the next day on$4$ Box-Hill; when, 
314:441,13[E  ]| provoked by$4$ such conduct$0$ on$4$ my side$0$, such shameful, 
314:441,14[E  ]| insolent neglect$0$ of her, and such apparent devotion to$4$ 
314:441,15[E  ]| $EM#A$Miss*W%, as it would have been impossible for$4$ any woman 
314:441,16[E  ]| of sense to$9$ endure, she spoke her resentment in$4$ a form$0$ of 
314:441,17[E  ]| words perfectly intelligible to$4$ me. ~~ In$4$ short, my dear$2#1$ 
314:441,18[E  ]| madam, it was a quarrel$0$ blameless on$4$ her side$0$, abominable 
314:441,19[E  ]| on$4$ mine$6$; and I returned the same evening to$4$ Richmond, 
314:441,20[E  ]| though I might have staid with you till the next morning, 
314:441,21[E  ]| merely because I would be as angry with her as possible. 
314:441,22[E  ]| Even$5$ then, I was not such a fool as not to$9$ mean$1$ to$9$ be 
314:441,23[E  ]| reconciled in$4$ time; but I was the injured person, injured 
314:441,24[E  ]| by$4$ her coldness, and I went away determined that$3$ she 
314:441,25[E  ]| should make$1$ the first advances$0$. ~~ I shall always congratulate 
314:441,26[E  ]| myself that$3$ you were not of the Box-Hill party. 
314:441,27[E  ]| Had you witnessed my behaviour there, I can hardly 
314:441,28[E  ]| suppose you would ever have thought$1$ well$5$ of me again. 
314:441,29[E  ]| Its effect$0$ upon$4$ her appears in$4$ the immediate resolution it 
314:441,30[E  ]| produced: as soon as she found I was really gone from 
314:441,31[E  ]| Randall's, she closed with the offer$0$ of that$6#2$ officious 
314:441,32[E  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton; the whole$2$ system of whose$6#1$ treatment of her, 
314:441,33[E  ]| by*the*bye, has ever filled me with indignation and hatred. 
314:441,34[E  ]| I must not quarrel$1$ with a spirit of forbearance which$6#1$ has 
314:441,35[E  ]| been so$5#1$ richly extended towards myself; but, otherwise, 
314:441,36[E  ]| I should loudly protest against the share$0$ of it which$6#1$ that$6#2$ 
314:441,37[E  ]| woman has known. ~~ 
314:441,37@i   | ""$EM#J$Jane,"" 
314:441,37[E  ]| indeed! ~~ You will$1$ observe 
314:441,38[E  ]| that$3$ I have not yet indulged myself in$4$ calling her by$4$ that$6#2$ 
314:442,01[E  ]| name$0$, even$5$ to$4$ you. Think, then, what I must have endured 
314:442,02[E  ]| in$4$ hearing it bandied between the $EM#H1$Eltons with all 
314:442,03[E  ]| the vulgarity of needless repetition, and all the insolence 
314:442,04[E  ]| of imaginary superiority. Have patience with me, I shall 
314:442,05[E  ]| soon have done. ~~ She closed with this offer$0$, resolving to$9$ 
314:442,06[E  ]| break with me entirely, and wrote the next day to$9$ tell me 
314:442,07[E  ]| that$3$ we never were to$9$ meet$1$ again. ~~ 
314:442,07@j   | \She\ \felt\ \the\ \engagement\ 
314:442,08@j   | \to$9$\ \be\ \a\ \source\ \of\ \repentance\ \and\ \misery\ \to$4$\ \each\: \she\

314:442,09[E  ]| This letter reached me on$4$ the very morning of my 
314:442,10[E  ]| poor aunt's death. I answered it within an hour; but 
314:442,11[E  ]| from the confusion of my mind$0$, and the multiplicity of 
314:442,12[E  ]| business falling on$4$ me at once, my answer$0$, instead of being$1$ 
314:442,13[E  ]| sent with all the many other letters of that$6#2$ day, was 
314:442,14[E  ]| locked up$5$ in$4$ my writing-desk; and I, trusting that$3$ I had 
314:442,15[E  ]| written enough, though but a few lines, to$9$ satisfy her, 
314:442,16[E  ]| remained without any uneasiness. ~~ I was rather disappointed 
314:442,17[E  ]| that$3$ I did not hear from her again speedily; 
314:442,18[E  ]| but I made excuses for$4$ her, and was too$5#1$ busy, and ~~ may$1$ 
314:442,19[E  ]| I add? ~~ too$5#1$ cheerful in$4$ my views to$9$ be captious. ~~ We 
314:442,20[E  ]| removed to$4$ Windsor; and two days afterwards I received 
314:442,21[E  ]| a parcel from her, my own$2$ letters all returned! ~~ and 
314:442,22[E  ]| a few lines at the same time by$4$ the post, stating her 
314:442,23[E  ]| extreme$2$ surprise$0$ at not having had the smallest reply$0$ to$4$ 
314:442,24[E  ]| her last$0$; and adding, that$3$ as silence$0$ on$4$ such a point$0$ could 
314:442,25[E  ]| not be misconstrued, and as it must be equally desirable 
314:442,26[E  ]| to$4$ both to$9$ have every subordinate arrangement concluded 
314:442,27[E  ]| as soon as possible, she now sent me, by$4$ a safe conveyance, 
314:442,28[E  ]| all my letters, and requested, that$3$ if I could not directly 
314:442,29[E  ]| command$1$ her's, so$3$ as to$9$ send them to$4$ Highbury within 
314:442,30[E  ]| a week, I would forward$1$ them after$4$ that$6#2$ period to$4$ her at 
314:442,31[E  ]| **** : in$4$ short, the full direction to$4$ $EM#ZM$Mr%*Smallridge's, 
314:442,32[E  ]| near$4$ Bristol, stared me in$4$ the face$0$. I knew the name$0$, 
314:442,33[E  ]| the place$0$, I knew all about$4$ it, and instantly saw what she 
314:442,34[E  ]| had been doing. It was perfectly accordant with that$6#2$ 
314:442,35[E  ]| resolution of character which$6#1$ I knew her to$9$ possess; and 
314:442,36[E  ]| the secrecy she had maintained, as to$4$ any such design$0$ in$4$ 
314:442,37[E  ]| her former letter, was equally descriptive of its anxious 
314:442,38[E  ]| delicacy. For$4$ the world would not she have seemed to$9$ 
314:443,01[E  ]| threaten me. ~~ Imagine the shock$0$; imagine how, till 
314:443,02[E  ]| I had actually detected my own$2$ blunder$0$, I raved at the 
314:443,03[E  ]| blunders of the post. ~~ What was to$9$ be done? ~~ One thing 
314:443,04[E  ]| only. ~~ I must speak to$4$ my uncle. Without his sanction 
314:443,05[E  ]| I could not hope$1$ to$9$ be listened to$4$ again. ~~ I spoke; circumstances 
314:443,06[E  ]| were in$4$ my favour$0$; the late event had 
314:443,07[E  ]| softened away his pride, and he was, earlier than I could 
314:443,08[E  ]| have anticipated, wholly reconciled and complying; and 
314:443,09[E  ]| could say at last$0$, poor man! with a deep sigh$0$, that$3$ he 
314:443,10[E  ]| wished I might find as much happiness in$4$ the marriage 
314:443,11[E  ]| state$0$ as he had done. ~~ I felt that$3$ it would be of a different 
314:443,12[E  ]| sort. ~~ Are you disposed to$9$ pity$1$ me for$4$ what I must have 
314:443,13[E  ]| suffered in$4$ opening the cause to$4$ him, for$4$ my suspense 
314:443,14[E  ]| while$3$ all was at stake$0$? ~~ No$7$; do not pity$1$ me till I reached 
314:443,15[E  ]| Highbury, and saw how ill I had made her. Do not pity$1$ 
314:443,16[E  ]| me till I saw her wan, sick looks$0$. ~~ I reached Highbury at 
314:443,17[E  ]| the time of day when, from my knowledge of their late 
314:443,18[E  ]| breakfast$0$ hour, I was certain of a good chance$0$ of finding 
314:443,19[E  ]| her alone. ~~ I was not disappointed; and at last$0$ I was 
314:443,20[E  ]| not disappointed either in$4$ the object$0$ of my journey. 
314:443,21[E  ]| A great deal$0$ of very reasonable, very just$2$ displeasure 
314:443,22[E  ]| I had to$9$ persuade away. But it is done; we are reconciled, 
314:443,23[E  ]| dearer, much dearer, than ever, and no$2$ moment's 
314:443,24[E  ]| uneasiness can ever occur between us again. Now, my 
314:443,25[E  ]| dear$2#1$ madam, I will$1$ release$1$ you; but I could not conclude 
314:443,26[E  ]| before$5$. A thousand and a thousand thanks for$4$ all the 
314:443,27[E  ]| kindness you have ever shown me, and ten thousand for$4$ 
314:443,28[E  ]| the attentions your heart will$1$ dictate$1$ towards her. ~~ 
314:443,29[E  ]| If you think me in$4$ a way to$9$ be happier than I deserve, 
314:443,30[E  ]| I am quite of your opinion. ~~ $EM#A$Miss*W% calls$1$ me the child 
314:443,31[E  ]| of good fortune. I hope$1$ she is right$2#1$. ~~ In$4$ one respect$0$, my 
314:443,32[E  ]| good fortune is undoubted, that$6#2$ of being$1$ able to$9$ subscribe 
314:443,33[E  ]| myself, 
314:443,34[E  ]| Your obliged and affectionate Son, 
314:443,35[E  ]| $EM#E$F%*C%*WESTON*CHURCHILL. 
315:444,01['  ]| This letter must make$1$ its way to$4$ $EM#A$Emma's feelings. 
315:444,02['  ]| She was obliged, in$4$ spite$8$ of her previous determination to$4$ 
315:444,03['  ]| the contrary, to$9$ do it all the justice that$6#1$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
315:444,04['  ]| foretold. As soon as she came to$4$ her own$2$ name$0$, it was 
315:444,05['  ]| irresistible; every line relating to$4$ herself was interesting, 
315:444,06['  ]| and almost every line agreeable; and when this charm$0$ 
315:444,07['  ]| ceased, the subject$0$ could still$5$ maintain itself, by$4$ the 
315:444,08['  ]| natural$2$ return$0$ of her former regard$0$ for$4$ the writer, and the 
315:444,09['  ]| very strong attraction which$6#1$ any picture$0$ of love$0$ must 
315:444,10['  ]| have for$4$ her at that$6#2$ moment. She never stopt till she had 
315:444,11['  ]| gone through$4$ the whole$0$; 
315:444,11@a   | and though it was impossible 
315:444,12@a   | not to$9$ feel that$3$ he had been wrong, yet he had been less 
315:444,13@a   | wrong than she had supposed ~~ and he had suffered, and 
315:444,14@a   | was very sorry ~~ and he was so$5#1$ grateful to$4$ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, 
315:444,15@a   | and so$5#1$ much in$4$ love$0$ with $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, and she was so$5#1$ 
315:444,16@a   | happy herself, that$3$ there was no$2$ being$1$ severe; and could 
315:444,17@a   | he have entered the room, she must have shaken hands 
315:444,18@a   | with him as heartily as ever. 
315:444,19['  ]| She thought$1$ so$5#1$ well$5$ of the letter, that$3$ when $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
315:444,20['  ]| came again, she desired him to$9$ read it. She was sure 
315:444,21['  ]| of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's wishing it to$9$ be communicated; especially 
315:444,22['  ]| to$4$ one, who$6#1$, like$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, had seen so$5#1$ much to$9$ 
315:444,23['  ]| blame$1$ in$4$ his conduct$0$. 
315:444,24[B  ]| "I shall be very glad to$9$ look$1$ it over," 
315:444,24['  ]| said he, 
315:444,24[B  ]| "but it 
315:444,25[B  ]| seems long. I will$1$ take it home with me at night." 
315:444,26['  ]| But that$6#2$ would not do. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston was to$9$ call$1$ in$4$ the 
315:444,27['  ]| evening, and she must return$1$ it by$4$ him. 
315:444,28[B  ]| "I would rather be talking to$4$ you," 
315:444,28['  ]| he replied; 
315:444,28[B  ]| "but 
315:444,29[B  ]| as it seems a matter of justice, it shall be done." 
315:444,30['  ]| He began ~~ stopping, however, almost directly to$9$ say, 
315:444,31[B  ]| "Had I been offered the sight of one of this gentleman's 
315:444,32[B  ]| letters to$4$ his mother-in-law a few months ago, $EM#A$Emma, it 
315:444,33[B  ]| would not have been taken with such indifference." 
315:445,01['  ]| He proceeded a little farther, reading to$4$ himself; and 
315:445,02['  ]| then, with a smile$0$, observed, 
315:445,02[B  ]| "Humph! ~~ a fine complimentary 
315:445,03[B  ]| opening: ~~ But it is his way. One man's style 
315:445,04[B  ]| must not be the rule of another's. We will$1$ not be severe." 
315:445,05[B  ]| "It will$1$ be natural$2$ for$4$ me," 
315:445,05['  ]| he added shortly afterwards, 
315:445,06[B  ]| "to$9$ speak my opinion aloud as I read. By$4$ doing 
315:445,07[B  ]| it, I shall feel that$3$ I am near$4$ you. It will$1$ not be so$5#1$ great 
315:445,08[B  ]| a loss of time: but if you dislike$1$ it ~~" 
315:445,09[A  ]| "Not at all. I should wish$1$ it." 
315:445,10['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley returned to$4$ his reading with greater 
315:445,11['  ]| alacrity. 
315:445,12[B  ]| "He trifles here," 
315:445,12['  ]| said he, 
315:445,12[B  ]| "as to$4$ the temptation. He 
315:445,13[B  ]| knows he is wrong, and has nothing rational to$9$ urge. ~~ 
315:445,14[B  ]| Bad. ~~ He ought not to$9$ have formed the engagement. ~~ 
315:445,15@e   | ""His father's disposition:"" 
315:445,15[B  ]| ~~ he is unjust, however, to$4$ his 
315:445,16[B  ]| father. $EM#N$Mr%*Weston's sanguine temper was a blessing on$4$ 
315:445,17[B  ]| all his upright and honourable exertions; but $EM#N$Mr%*Weston 
315:445,18[B  ]| earned every present$2$ comfort$0$ before$3$ he endeavoured to$9$ 
315:445,19[B  ]| gain$1$ it. ~~ Very true; he did not come till $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
315:445,20[B  ]| was here." 
315:445,21[A  ]| "And I have not forgotten," 
315:445,21['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
315:445,21[A  ]| "how sure 
315:445,22[A  ]| you were that$3$ he might have come sooner if he would. 
315:445,23[A  ]| You pass$1$ it over very handsomely ~~ but you were perfectly 
315:445,24[A  ]| right$2#1$." 
315:445,25[B  ]| "I was not quite impartial in$4$ my judgment, $EM#A$Emma: ~~ 
315:445,26[B  ]| but yet, I think ~~ had \you\ not been in$4$ the case ~~ I should 
315:445,27[B  ]| still$5$ have distrusted him." 
315:445,28['  ]| When he came to$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, he was obliged to$9$ 
315:445,29['  ]| read the whole$0$ of it aloud ~~ all that$6#1$ related to$4$ her, with 
315:445,30['  ]| a smile$0$; a look$0$; a shake$0$ of the head$0$; a word or two of 
315:445,31['  ]| assent, or disapprobation; or merely of love$0$, as the 
315:445,32['  ]| subject$0$ required; concluding, however, seriously, and, 
315:445,33['  ]| after$4$ steady reflection, thus ~~ 
315:445,34[B  ]| "Very bad ~~ though it might have been worse. ~~ 
315:445,35[B  ]| Playing a most dangerous game. Too$5#1$ much indebted to$4$ 
315:445,36[B  ]| the event for$4$ his acquittal. ~~ No$2$ judge$0$ of his own$2$ manners 
315:445,37[B  ]| by$4$ you. ~~ Always deceived in$4$ fact by$4$ his own$2$ wishes$0$, and 
315:445,38[B  ]| regardless of little besides his own$2$ convenience. ~~ Fancying 
315:446,01[B  ]| you to$9$ have fathomed his secret$0$. Natural$2$ enough! ~~ his 
315:446,02[B  ]| own$2$ mind$0$ full of intrigue, that$3$ he should suspect it in$4$ 
315:446,03[B  ]| others. ~~ Mystery; Finesse ~~ how they pervert the understanding! 
315:446,04[B  ]| My $EM#A$Emma, does not every*thing serve to$9$ 
315:446,05[B  ]| prove more and more the beauty of truth and sincerity in$4$ 
315:446,06[B  ]| all our dealings with each other?" 
315:446,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma agreed to$4$ it, and with a blush$0$ of sensibility on$4$ 
315:446,08['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet's account$0$, which$6#1$ she could not give any sincere 
315:446,09['  ]| explanation of. 
315:446,10[A  ]| "You had better go on$5$," 
315:446,10['  ]| said she. 
315:446,11['  ]| He did so$5#2$, but very soon stopt again to$9$ say, 
315:446,11[B  ]| "the piano-forte=! 
315:446,12[B  ]| Ah! That$6#2$ was the act$0$ of a very, very young man, 
315:446,13[B  ]| one too$5#1$ young to$9$ consider whether the inconvenience of it 
315:446,14[B  ]| might not very much exceed the pleasure. A boyish 
315:446,15[B  ]| scheme$0$, indeed! ~~ I cannot comprehend a man's wishing 
315:446,16[B  ]| to$9$ give a woman any proof of affection which$6#1$ he knows 
315:446,17[B  ]| she would rather dispense with; and he did know that$3$ 
315:446,18[B  ]| she would have prevented the instrument's coming if she 
315:446,19[B  ]| could." 
315:446,20['  ]| After$4$ this, he made some progress without any pause$0$. 
315:446,21['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill's confession of having behaved shamefully 
315:446,22['  ]| was the first thing to$9$ call$1$ for$4$ more than a word in$4$ 
315:446,23['  ]| passing. 
315:446,24[B  ]| "I perfectly agree with you, sir," ~~ 
315:446,24['  ]| was then his remark$0$. 
315:446,25[B  ]| "You did behave very shamefully. You never wrote 
315:446,26[B  ]| a truer line." 
315:446,26['  ]| And having gone through$4$ what immediately 
315:446,27['  ]| followed of the basis of their disagreement, and his persisting 
315:446,28['  ]| to$9$ act$1$ in$4$ direct$2$ opposition to$4$ $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax's sense 
315:446,29['  ]| of right$0$, he made a fuller pause$0$ to$9$ say, 
315:446,29[B  ]| "This is very bad. 
315:446,30[B  ]| ~~ He had induced her to$9$ place$1$ herself, for$4$ his sake, in$4$ 
315:446,31[B  ]| a situation of extreme$2$ difficulty and uneasiness, and it 
315:446,32[B  ]| should have been his first object$0$ to$9$ prevent her from 
315:446,33[B  ]| suffering unnecessarily. ~~ She must have had much more 
315:446,34[B  ]| to$9$ contend with, in$4$ carrying on$5$ the correspondence, than 
315:446,35[B  ]| he could. He should have respected even$5$ unreasonable 
315:446,36[B  ]| scruples, had there been such; but her's were all reasonable. 
315:446,37[B  ]| We must look$1$ to$4$ her one fault, and remember that$3$ 
315:446,38[B  ]| she had done a wrong thing in$4$ consenting to$4$ the engagement, 
315:447,01[B  ]| to$9$ bear$1$ that$3$ she should have been in$4$ such a state$0$ 
315:447,02[B  ]| of punishment." 
315:447,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma knew that$3$ he was now getting to$4$ the Box-Hill 
315:447,04['  ]| party, and grew uncomfortable. 
315:447,04@a   | Her own$2$ behaviour had 
315:447,05@a   | been so$5#1$ very improper! She was deeply ashamed, and 
315:447,06@a   | a little afraid of his next look$0$. It was all read, however, 
315:447,07@a   | steadily, attentively, and without the smallest remark$0$; 
315:447,08@a   | and, excepting one momentary glance$0$ at her, instantly 
315:447,09@a   | withdrawn, in$4$ the fear$0$ of giving pain$0$ ~~ no$2$ remembrance of 
315:447,10@a   | Box-Hill seemed to$9$ exist. 
315:447,11[B  ]| "There is no$2$ saying much for$4$ the delicacy of our good 
315:447,12[B  ]| friends, the $EM#H1$Eltons," 
315:447,12['  ]| was his next observation. ~~ 
315:447,12[B  ]| "His 
315:447,13[B  ]| feelings are natural$2$. ~~ What! actually to$9$ resolve$1$ to$9$ break 
315:447,14[B  ]| with him entirely! ~~ She felt the engagement to$9$ be a source 
315:447,15[B  ]| of repentance and misery to$4$ each ~~ she dissolved it. ~~ 
315:447,16[B  ]| What a view$0$ this gives of her sense of his behaviour! ~~ 
315:447,17[B  ]| Well$7$, he must be a most extraordinary ~~" 
315:447,18[A  ]| "Nay, nay, read on$5$. ~~ You will$1$ find how very much he 
315:447,19[A  ]| suffers." 
315:447,20[B  ]| "I hope$1$ he does," 
315:447,20['  ]| replied $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley coolly, and 
315:447,21['  ]| resuming the letter. ~~ 
315:447,21@e   | ""$EM#ZM1$Smallridge!"" ~~ 
315:447,21[B  ]| "What does this 
315:447,22[B  ]| mean$1$? What is all this?" 
315:447,23[A  ]| "She had engaged to$9$ go as governess to$4$ $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*Smallridge's 
315:447,24[A  ]| children ~~ a dear$2#1$ friend of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's ~~ a neighbour 
315:447,25[A  ]| of Maple*Grove; and, by*the*bye, I wonder$1$ how 
315:447,26[A  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton bears the disappointment." 
315:447,27[B  ]| "Say nothing, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, while$3$ you oblige me to$9$ 
315:447,28[B  ]| read ~~ not even$5$ of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton. Only one page more. 
315:447,29[B  ]| I shall soon have done. What a letter the man writes!" 
315:447,30[A  ]| "I wish$1$ you would read it with a kinder spirit towards 
315:447,31[A  ]| him." 
315:447,32[B  ]| "Well$7$, there \is\ feeling here. ~~ He does seem to$9$ have 
315:447,33[B  ]| suffered in$4$ finding her ill. ~~ Certainly, I can have no$2$ doubt$0$ 
315:447,34[B  ]| of his being$1$ fond of her. 
315:447,34@e   | ""Dearer, much dearer than ever."" 
315:447,35[B  ]| I hope$1$ he may$1$ long continue to$9$ feel all the value$0$ of such 
315:447,36[B  ]| a reconciliation. ~~ He is a very liberal thanker, with his 
315:447,37[B  ]| thousands and tens of thousands. ~~ 
315:447,37@e   | ""Happier than I deserve."" 
315:447,38[B  ]| Come, he knows himself there. 
315:447,38@e   | ""$EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse 
315:448,01@e   | calls$1$ me the child of good fortune."" ~~ 
315:448,01[B  ]| Those were $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse's 
315:448,02[B  ]| words, were they? ~~ And a fine ending ~~ 
315:448,03[B  ]| and there is the letter. The child of good fortune! That$6#2$ 
315:448,04[B  ]| was your name$0$ for$4$ him, was it?" 
315:448,05[A  ]| "You do not appear so$5#1$ well$5$ satisfied with his letter as 
315:448,06[A  ]| I am; but still$5$ you must, at least I hope$1$ you must, think 
315:448,07[A  ]| the better of him for$4$ it. I hope$1$ it does him some service 
315:448,08[A  ]| with you." 
315:448,09[B  ]| "Yes, certainly it does. He has had great faults, faults 
315:448,10[B  ]| of inconsideration and thoughtlessness; and I am very 
315:448,11[B  ]| much of his opinion in$4$ thinking him likely to$9$ be happier 
315:448,12[B  ]| than he deserves: but still$5$ as he is, beyond$4$ a doubt$0$, 
315:448,13[B  ]| really attached to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, and will$1$ soon, it may$1$ be 
315:448,14[B  ]| hoped, have the advantage of being$1$ constantly with her. 
315:448,15[B  ]| I am very ready to$9$ believe his character will$1$ improve, 
315:448,16[B  ]| and acquire from her's the steadiness and delicacy of 
315:448,17[B  ]| principle that$6#1$ it wants$1$. And now, let me talk$1$ to$4$ you of 
315:448,18[B  ]| something else. I have another person's interest$0$ at present$0#1$ 
315:448,19[B  ]| so$5#1$ much at heart, that$3$ I cannot think any longer about$4$ 
315:448,20[B  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill. Ever since I left you this morning, 
315:448,21[B  ]| $EM#A$Emma, my mind$0$ has been hard at work$0$ on$4$ one subject$0$." 
315:448,22['  ]| The subject$0$ followed; it was in$4$ plain, unaffected, 
315:448,23['  ]| gentleman-like English such as $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley used even$5$ 
315:448,24['  ]| to$4$ the woman he was in$4$ love$0$ with, how to$9$ be able to$9$ ask 
315:448,25['  ]| her to$9$ marry him, without attacking the happiness of her 
315:448,26['  ]| father. $EM#A$Emma's answer$0$ was ready at the first word. 
315:448,27[A  ]| "While$3$ her dear$2#1$ father lived, any change$0$ of condition$0$ 
315:448,28[A  ]| must be impossible for$4$ her. She could never quit him." 
315:448,29['  ]| Part$0$ only of this answer$0$, however, was admitted. The 
315:448,30['  ]| impossibility of her quitting her father, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
315:448,31['  ]| felt as strongly as herself; 
315:448,31@b   | but the inadmissibility of any 
315:448,32@b   | other change$0$, he could not agree to$4$. He had been thinking 
315:448,33@b   | it over most deeply, most intently; he had at first hoped 
315:448,34@b   | to$9$ induce $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse to$9$ remove$1$ with her to$4$ Donwell; 
315:448,35@b   | he had wanted to$9$ believe it feasible, but his knowledge of 
315:448,36@b   | $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse would not suffer him to$9$ deceive himself 
315:448,37@b   | long; and now he confessed his persuasion, that$3$ such 
315:448,38@b   | a transplantation would be a risk$0$ of her father's comfort$0$, 
315:449,01@b   | perhaps even$5$ of his life, which$6#1$ must not be hazarded. 
315:449,02@b   | $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse taken from Hartfield! ~~ No$7$, he felt that$3$ 
315:449,03@b   | it ought not to$9$ be attempted. But the plan which$6#1$ had 
315:449,04@b   | arisen on$4$ the sacrifice$0$ of this, he trusted his dearest $EM#A$Emma 
315:449,05@b   | would not find in$4$ any respect$0$ objectionable; it was, that$3$ 
315:449,06@b   | he should be received at Hartfield; that$3$ so$5#1$ long as her 
315:449,07@b   | father's happiness ~~ in$4$ other words his life ~~ required Hartfield 
315:449,08@b   | to$9$ continue her home, it should be his likewise. 
315:449,09['  ]| Of their all removing to$4$ Donwell, $EM#A$Emma had already 
315:449,10['  ]| had her own$2$ passing thoughts. Like$4$ him, she had tried 
315:449,11['  ]| the scheme$0$ and rejected it; but such an alternative as 
315:449,12['  ]| this had not occurred to$4$ her. 
315:449,12@a   | She was sensible$2#1$ of all the 
315:449,13@a   | affection it evinced. She felt that$3$, in$4$ quitting Donwell, 
315:449,14@a   | he must be sacrificing a great deal$0$ of independence of 
315:449,15@a   | hours and habits; that$3$ in$4$ living constantly with her 
315:449,16@a   | father, and in$4$ no$2$ house of his own$2$, there would be much, 
315:449,17@a   | very much, to$9$ be borne with. 
315:449,17['  ]| She promised to$9$ think of it, 
315:449,18['  ]| and advised him to$9$ think of it more; but he was fully 
315:449,19['  ]| convinced, that$3$ no$2$ reflection could alter his wishes$0$ or his 
315:449,20['  ]| opinion on$4$ the subject$0$. 
315:449,20@b   | He had given it, he could assure 
315:449,21@b   | her, very long and calm$2$ consideration; he had been 
315:449,22@b   | walking away from $EM#W$William*Larkins the whole$2$ morning, 
315:449,23@b   | to$9$ have his thoughts to$4$ himself. 
315:449,24[A  ]| "Ah! there is one difficulty unprovided for$5$," 
315:449,24['  ]| cried 
315:449,25['  ]| $EM#A$Emma. 
315:449,25[A  ]| "I am sure $EM#W$William*Larkins will$1$ not like$1$ it. You 
315:449,26[A  ]| must get his consent$0$ before$3$ you ask mine$6$." 
315:449,27['  ]| She promised, however, to$9$ think of it; and pretty$5$ 
315:449,28['  ]| nearly promised, moreover, to$9$ think of it, with the intention 
315:449,29['  ]| of finding it a very good scheme$0$. 
315:449,30['  ]| It is remarkable, that$3$ $EM#A$Emma, in$4$ the many, very many, 
315:449,31['  ]| points of view$0$ in$4$ which$6#1$ she was now beginning to$9$ consider 
315:449,32['  ]| Donwell*Abbey, was never struck with any sense of injury 
315:449,33['  ]| to$4$ her nephew $EM#L1$Henry, whose$6#1$ rights as heir expectant had 
315:449,34['  ]| formerly been so$5#1$ tenaciously regarded. Think she must 
315:449,35['  ]| of the possible difference to$4$ the poor little boy; and yet 
315:449,36['  ]| she only gave herself a saucy conscious smile$0$ about$4$ it, and 
315:449,37['  ]| found amusement in$4$ detecting the real cause of that$6#2$ violent 
315:449,38['  ]| dislike$0$ of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's marrying $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax, or any*body 
315:450,01['  ]| else, which$6#1$ at the time she had wholly imputed to$4$ 
315:450,02['  ]| the amiable solicitude of the sister and the aunt. 
315:450,03@a   | This proposal of his, this plan of marrying and continuing 
315:450,04@a   | at Hartfield ~~ the more she contemplated it, the more 
315:450,05@a   | pleasing it became. His evils seemed to$9$ lessen, her own$2$ 
315:450,06@a   | advantages to$9$ increase$1$, their mutual good to$9$ outweigh 
315:450,07@a   | every drawback. Such a companion for$4$ herself in$4$ the 
315:450,08@a   | periods of anxiety and cheerlessness before$4$ her! ~~ Such 
315:450,09@a   | a partner in$4$ all those duties and cares$0$ to$4$ which$6#1$ time must 
315:450,10@a   | be giving increase$0$ of melancholy$0$! 
315:450,11@a   | She would have been too$5#1$ happy but for$4$ poor $EM#M$Harriet; 
315:450,12@a   | but every blessing of her own$2$ seemed to$9$ involve and 
315:450,13@a   | advance$1$ the sufferings of her friend, who$6#1$ must now be 
315:450,14@a   | even$5$ excluded from Hartfield. The delightful family-party 
315:450,15@a   | which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma was securing for$4$ herself, poor $EM#M$Harriet 
315:450,16@a   | must, in$4$ mere charitable caution$0$, be kept at a distance$0$ 
315:450,17@a   | from. She would be a loser in$4$ every way. 
315:450,17['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could 
315:450,18['  ]| not deplore her future absence as any deduction from her 
315:450,19['  ]| own$2$ enjoyment. 
315:450,19@a   | In$4$ such a party, $EM#M$Harriet would be rather 
315:450,20@a   | a dead weight than otherwise; but for$4$ the poor girl herself, 
315:450,21@a   | it seemed a peculiarly cruel necessity that$6#1$ was to$9$ be 
315:450,22@a   | placing her in$4$ such a state$0$ of unmerited punishment. 
315:450,23@a   | In$4$ time, of course$8$, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley would be forgotten, 
315:450,24@a   | that$6#2$ is, supplanted; but this could not be expected to$9$ 
315:450,25@a   | happen very early. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley himself would be doing 
315:450,26@a   | nothing to$9$ assist the cure$0$; ~~ not like$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
315:450,27@a   | always so$5#1$ kind$2$, so$5#1$ feeling, so$5#1$ truly considerate 
315:450,28@a   | for$4$ every*body, would never deserve to$9$ be less worshipped 
315:450,29@a   | than now; and it really was too$5#1$ much to$9$ hope$1$ even$5$ of 
315:450,30@a   | $EM#M$Harriet, that$3$ she could be in$4$ love$0$ with more than \three\ 
315:450,31@a   | men in$4$ one year. 
316:451,01['  ]| It was a very great relief to$4$ $EM#A$Emma to$9$ find $EM#M$Harriet as 
316:451,02['  ]| desirous as herself to$9$ avoid a meeting. 
316:451,02@a   | Their intercourse 
316:451,03@a   | was painful enough by$4$ letter. How much worse, had they 
316:451,04@a   | been obliged to$9$ meet$1$! 
316:451,05['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet expressed herself very much as might be 
316:451,06['  ]| supposed, without reproaches, or apparent sense of ill*usage; 
316:451,07['  ]| and yet $EM#A$Emma fancied there was a something of 
316:451,08['  ]| resentment, a something bordering on$4$ it in$4$ her style, 
316:451,09['  ]| which$6#1$ increased the desirableness of their being$1$ separate$2$. 
316:451,10@a   | ~~ It might be only her own$2$ consciousness; but it seemed 
316:451,11@a   | as if an angel only could have been quite without resentment 
316:451,12@a   | under such a stroke. 
316:451,13['  ]| She had no$2$ difficulty in$4$ procuring $EM#L$Isabella's invitation; 
316:451,14['  ]| and she was fortunate in$4$ having a sufficient reason$0$ for$4$ 
316:451,15['  ]| asking it, without resorting to$4$ invention. ~~ There was 
316:451,16['  ]| a tooth amiss. $EM#M$Harriet really wished, and had wished 
316:451,17['  ]| some time, to$9$ consult a dentist. $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley 
316:451,18['  ]| was delighted to$9$ be of use$0$; any*thing of ill-health was 
316:451,19['  ]| a recommendation to$4$ her ~~ and though not so$5#1$ fond of 
316:451,20['  ]| a dentist as of a $EM#ZZR$Mr%*Wingfield, she was quite eager to$9$ have 
316:451,21['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet under her care$0$. ~~ When it was thus settled on$4$ her 
316:451,22['  ]| sister's side$0$, $EM#A$Emma proposed it to$4$ her friend, and found 
316:451,23['  ]| her very persuadable. ~~ $EM#M$Harriet was to$9$ go; she was invited 
316:451,24['  ]| for$4$ at least a fortnight; she was to$9$ be conveyed in$4$ 
316:451,25['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's carriage. ~~ It was all arranged, it was 
316:451,26['  ]| all completed, and $EM#M$Harriet was safe in$4$ Brunswick*Square. 
316:451,27['  ]| Now $EM#A$Emma could, indeed, enjoy $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's visits; 
316:451,28['  ]| now she could talk$1$, and she could listen with true happiness, 
316:451,29['  ]| unchecked by$4$ that$6#2$ sense of injustice, of guilt, of 
316:451,30['  ]| something most painful, which$6#1$ had haunted her when 
316:451,31['  ]| remembering 
316:451,31@a   | how disappointed a heart was near$4$ her, how 
316:451,32@a   | much might at that$6#2$ moment, and at a little distance$0$, be 
316:451,33@a   | enduring by$4$ the feelings which$6#1$ she had led astray herself. 
316:452,01['  ]| The difference of $EM#M$Harriet at $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard's, or in$4$ 
316:452,02['  ]| London, made perhaps an unreasonable difference in$4$ 
316:452,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's sensations; but she could not think of her in$4$ 
316:452,04['  ]| London without objects$0$ of curiosity and employment, 
316:452,05['  ]| which$6#1$ must be averting the past$0$, and carrying her out$5$ of 
316:452,06['  ]| herself. 
316:452,07['  ]| She would not allow any other anxiety to$9$ succeed 
316:452,08['  ]| directly to$4$ the place$0$ in$4$ her mind$0$ which$6#1$ $EM#M$Harriet had occupied. 
316:452,09['  ]| There was a communication before$4$ her, one which$6#1$ 
316:452,10['  ]| \she\ only could be competent to$9$ make$1$ ~~ the confession of 
316:452,11['  ]| her engagement to$4$ her father; but she would have nothing 
316:452,12['  ]| to$9$ do with it at present$0#1$. ~~ She had resolved to$9$ defer the 
316:452,13['  ]| disclosure till $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston were safe and well$5$. 
316:452,13@a   | No$7$ 
316:452,14@a   | additional agitation should be thrown at this period among 
316:452,15@a   | those she loved ~~ and the evil should not act$1$ on$4$ herself by$4$ 
316:452,16@a   | anticipation before$4$ the appointed time. ~~ A fortnight, at 
316:452,17@a   | least, of leisure and peace of mind$0$, to$9$ crown$1$ every warmer, 
316:452,18@a   | but more agitating, delight$0$, should be her's. 
316:452,19['  ]| She soon resolved, equally as a duty and a pleasure, to$9$ 
316:452,20['  ]| employ half an hour of this holiday of spirits in$4$ calling on$4$ 
316:452,21['  ]| $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax. ~~ 
316:452,21@a   | She ought to$9$ go ~~ and she was longing to$9$ 
316:452,22@a   | see her; 
316:452,22['  ]| the resemblance of their present$2$ situations increasing 
316:452,23['  ]| every other motive of good*will. 
316:452,23@a   | It would be 
316:452,24@a   | a \secret$2$\ satisfaction; but the consciousness of a similarity 
316:452,25@a   | of prospect would certainly add to$4$ the interest$0$ with which$6#1$ 
316:452,26@a   | she should attend to$4$ any*thing $EM#J$Jane might communicate. 
316:452,27['  ]| She went ~~ she had driven once unsuccessfully to$4$ the 
316:452,28['  ]| door, but had not been into the house since the morning 
316:452,29['  ]| after$4$ Box-Hill, when poor $EM#J$Jane had been in$4$ such distress$0$ 
316:452,30['  ]| as had filled her with compassion, though all the worst of 
316:452,31['  ]| her sufferings had been unsuspected. ~~ The fear$0$ of being$1$ 
316:452,32['  ]| still$5$ unwelcome, determined her, though assured of their 
316:452,33['  ]| being$1$ at home, to$9$ wait in$4$ the passage, and send up$5$ her 
316:452,34['  ]| name$0$. ~~ She heard $EM#V$Patty announcing it; but no$2$ such 
316:452,35['  ]| bustle$0$ succeeded as poor $EM#D$Miss*Bates had before$5$ made so$5#1$ 
316:452,36['  ]| happily intelligible. ~~ 
316:452,36@a   | No$7$; she heard nothing but the 
316:452,37@a   | instant$2$ reply$0$ of, 
316:452,37[C  ]| "Beg her to$9$ walk$1$ up$5$;" 
316:452,37['  ]| ~~ and a moment 
316:452,38['  ]| afterwards she was met on$4$ the stairs by$4$ $EM#J$Jane herself, 
316:453,01['  ]| coming eagerly forward$5$, as if no$2$ other reception of her 
316:453,02['  ]| were felt sufficient. ~~ $EM#A$Emma had never seen her look$1$ so$5#1$ 
316:453,03['  ]| well$5$, so$5#1$ lovely, so$5#1$ engaging. 
316:453,03@a   | There was consciousness, 
316:453,04@a   | animation, and warmth; there was every*thing which$6#1$ her 
316:453,05@a   | countenance or manner could ever have wanted. ~~ 
316:453,05['  ]| She 
316:453,06['  ]| came forward$5$ with an offered hand$0$; and said, in$4$ a low, 
316:453,07['  ]| but very feeling tone, 
316:453,08[J  ]| "This is most kind$2$, indeed! ~~ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, it is 
316:453,09[J  ]| impossible for$4$ me to$9$ express$1$ ~~ I hope$1$ you will$1$ believe 
316:453,10[J  ]| ~~ Excuse$1$ me for$4$ being$1$ so$5#1$ entirely without words." 
316:453,11['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was gratified, and would soon have shown 
316:453,12['  ]| no$2$ want$0$ of words, if the sound$0$ of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's voice 
316:453,13['  ]| from the sitting-room had not checked her, and made 
316:453,14['  ]| it expedient$2$ to$9$ compress all her friendly and all her 
316:453,15['  ]| congratulatory sensations into a very, very earnest shake$0$ 
316:453,16['  ]| of the hand$0$. 
316:453,17['  ]| $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton were together. $EM#D$Miss*Bates 
316:453,18['  ]| was out$5$, which$6#1$ accounted for$4$ the previous tranquillity. 
316:453,19['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could have wished $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton elsewhere; but she 
316:453,20['  ]| was in$4$ a humour to$9$ have patience with every*body; and 
316:453,21['  ]| as $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton met her with unusual graciousness, she 
316:453,22['  ]| hoped the rencontre would do them no$2$ harm$0$. 
316:453,23['  ]| She soon believed herself to$9$ penetrate $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's 
316:453,24['  ]| thoughts, and understand why she was, like$4$ herself, in$4$ 
316:453,25['  ]| happy spirits; it was being$1$ in$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's confidence, 
316:453,26['  ]| and fancying herself acquainted with what was still$5$ 
316:453,27['  ]| a secret$0$ to$4$ other people. $EM#A$Emma saw symptoms of it 
316:453,28['  ]| immediately in$4$ the expression of her face$0$; and while$4$ 
316:453,29['  ]| paying her own$2$ compliments to$4$ $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates, and appearing 
316:453,30['  ]| to$9$ attend to$4$ the good old lady's replies$0$, she saw her with 
316:453,31['  ]| a sort of anxious parade$0$ of mystery fold up$5$ a letter which$6#1$ 
316:453,32['  ]| she had apparently been reading aloud to$4$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax, 
316:453,33['  ]| and return$1$ it into the purple and gold ridicule$0#2$ by$4$ her side$0$, 
316:453,34['  ]| saying, with significant nods, 
316:453,35[I  ]| "We can finish$1$ this some other time, you know. You 
316:453,36[I  ]| and I shall not want$1$ opportunities. And, in$4$ fact, you 
316:453,37[I  ]| have heard all the essential already. I only wanted to$9$ 
316:453,38[I  ]| prove to$4$ you that$3$ $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*S% admits our apology, and is not 
316:454,01[I  ]| offended. You see how delightfully she writes. Oh! she 
316:454,02[I  ]| is a sweet creature! You would have doated on$4$ her, had 
316:454,03[I  ]| you gone. ~~ But not a word more. Let us be discreet ~~ 
316:454,04[I  ]| quite on$4$ our good behaviour. ~~ Hush! ~~ You remember 
316:454,05[I  ]| those lines ~~ I forget the poem at this moment: 
316:454,06@z   | ""For$3$ when a lady's in$4$ the case, 
316:454,07@z   | ""You know all other things give place$0$."" 
316:454,08[I  ]| Now I say, my dear$2#1$, in$4$ \our\ case, for$4$ \lady\, read ~~ mum! 
316:454,09[I  ]| a word to$4$ the wise. ~~ I am in$4$ a fine flow$0$ of spirits, an't I? 
316:454,10[I  ]| But I want$1$ to$9$ set$1$ your heart at ease$0$ as to$4$ $EM#ZM1$Mrs%*S%. ~~ \My\ 
316:454,11[I  ]| representation, you see, has quite appeased her." 
316:454,12['  ]| And again, on$4$ $EM#A$Emma's merely turning her head$0$ to$9$ look$1$ 
316:454,13['  ]| at $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates's knitting, she added, in$4$ a half whisper$0$, 
316:454,14[I  ]| "I mentioned no$2$ \names\, you will$1$ observe. ~~ Oh! no$7$; 
316:454,15[I  ]| cautious as a minister of state$0$. I managed it extremely 
316:454,16[I  ]| well$5$." 
316:454,17['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not doubt$1$. 
316:454,17@a   | It was a palpable display$0$, 
316:454,18@a   | repeated on$4$ every possible occasion$0$. When they had all 
316:454,19@a   | talked a little while$0$ in$4$ harmony of the weather and 
316:454,20@a   | $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, she found herself abruptly addressed with, 
316:454,21[I  ]| "Do not you think, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, our saucy little 
316:454,22[I  ]| friend here is charmingly recovered? ~~ Do not you think 
316:454,23[I  ]| her cure$0$ does $EM#W$Perry the highest credit$0$? ~~ 
316:454,23['  ]| (here was 
316:454,24['  ]| a side-glance of great meaning at $EM#J$Jane.) 
316:454,24[I  ]| Upon$4$ my word, 
316:454,25[I  ]| $EM#W$Perry has restored her in$4$ a wonderful short time! ~~ Oh! 
316:454,26[I  ]| if you had seen her, as I did, when she was at the worst!" 
316:454,27['  ]| ~~ And when $EM#C$Mrs%*Bates was saying something to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, 
316:454,28['  ]| whispered farther, 
316:454,28[I  ]| "We do not say a word of any \assistance\ 
316:454,29[I  ]| that$6#1$ $EM#W$Perry might have; not a word of a certain young 
316:454,30[I  ]| physician from Windsor. ~~ Oh! no$7$; $EM#W$Perry shall have all 
316:454,31[I  ]| the credit$0$." 
316:454,32[I  ]| "I have scarce had the pleasure of seeing you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse," 
316:454,33['  ]| she shortly afterwards began, 
316:454,33[I  ]| "since the 
316:454,34[I  ]| party to$4$ Box-Hill. Very pleasant party. But yet I think 
316:454,35[I  ]| there was something wanting. Things did not seem ~~ that$6#2$ 
316:454,36[I  ]| is, there seemed a little cloud$0$ upon$4$ the spirits of some. ~~ So$5#2$ 
316:454,37[I  ]| it appeared to$4$ me at least, but I might be mistaken. However, 
316:454,38[I  ]| I think it answered so$5#1$ far as to$9$ tempt one to$9$ go again. 
316:455,01[I  ]| what say you both to$4$ our collecting the same party, and 
316:455,02[I  ]| exploring to$4$ Box-Hill again, while$3$ the fine weather lasts? 
316:455,03[I  ]| ~~ It must be the same party, you know, quite the same 
316:455,04[I  ]| party, not \one\ exception." 
316:455,05['  ]| Soon after$4$ this $EM#D$Miss*Bates came in$5$, and $EM#A$Emma could 
316:455,06['  ]| not help$1$ being$1$ diverted by$4$ the perplexity of her first 
316:455,07['  ]| answer$0$ to$4$ herself, resulting, she supposed, from doubt$0$ of 
316:455,08['  ]| what might be said, and impatience to$9$ say every*thing. 
316:455,09[D  ]| "Thank you, dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, you are all kindness. ~~ 
316:455,10[D  ]| It is impossible to$9$ say ~~ Yes, indeed, I quite understand ~~ 
316:455,11[D  ]| dearest $EM#J$Jane's prospects ~~ that$6#2$ is, I do not mean$1$. ~~ 
316:455,12[D  ]| But she is charmingly recovered. ~~ How is $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse? ~~ 
316:455,13[D  ]| I am so$5#1$ glad. ~~ Quite out$5$ of my power. ~~ Such 
316:455,14[D  ]| a happy little circle as you find us here. ~~ Yes, indeed. ~~ 
316:455,15[D  ]| Charming young man! ~~ that$6#2$ is ~~ so$5#1$ very friendly; I mean$1$ 
316:455,16[D  ]| good $EM#W$Mr%*Perry! ~~ such attention to$4$ $EM#J$Jane!" ~~ 
316:455,16['  ]| And from 
316:455,17['  ]| her great, her more than commonly thankful delight$0$ 
316:455,18['  ]| towards $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton for$4$ being$1$ there, $EM#A$Emma guessed that$3$ 
316:455,19['  ]| there had been a little show$0$ of resentment towards $EM#J$Jane, 
316:455,20['  ]| from the vicarage quarter$0#2$, which$6#1$ was now graciously overcome. ~~ 
316:455,21['  ]| After$4$ a few whispers, indeed, which$6#1$ placed it 
316:455,22['  ]| beyond$4$ a guess$0$, $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, speaking louder, said, 
316:455,23[I  ]| "Yes, here I am, my good friend; and here I have 
316:455,24[I  ]| been so$5#1$ long, that$3$ anywhere else I should think it necessary 
316:455,25[I  ]| to$9$ apologize: but the truth is, that$3$ I am waiting for$4$ my 
316:455,26[I  ]| lord$0$ and master. He promised to$9$ join me here, and pay$1$ 
316:455,27[I  ]| his respects to$4$ you." 
316:455,28[D  ]| "What! are we to$9$ have the pleasure of a call$0$ from 
316:455,29[D  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton? ~~ That$6#2$ will$1$ be a favour$0$ indeed! for$3$ I know 
316:455,30[D  ]| gentlemen do not like$1$ morning visits, and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton's 
316:455,31[D  ]| time is so$5#1$ engaged." 
316:455,32[I  ]| "Upon$4$ my word it is, $EM#D$Miss*Bates. ~~ He really is engaged 
316:455,33[I  ]| from morning to$4$ night. ~~ There is no$2$ end$0$ of people's 
316:455,34[I  ]| coming to$4$ him, on$4$ some pretence or other. ~~ The magistrates, 
316:455,35[I  ]| and overseers, and churchwardens, are always 
316:455,36[I  ]| wanting his opinion. They seem not able to$9$ do any*thing 
316:455,37[I  ]| without him. ~~ ""Upon$4$ my word, $EM#H$Mr%*E%, I often say,rather 
316:455,38[I  ]| you than I. ~~ I do not know what would become of my 
316:456,01[I  ]| crayons and my instrument, if I had half so$5#1$ many 
316:456,02[I  ]| applicants."" ~~ Bad enough as it is, for$3$ I absolutely neglect$1$ 
316:456,03[I  ]| them both to$4$ an unpardonable degree. ~~ I believe I have 
316:456,04[I  ]| not played a bar this fortnight. ~~ However, he is coming, 
316:456,05[I  ]| I assure you: yes, indeed, on$4$ purpose to$9$ wait on$4$ you all." 
316:456,06['  ]| ~~ And putting up$5$ her hand$0$ to$9$ screen her words from 
316:456,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma ~~ 
316:456,07[I  ]| "A congratulatory visit$0$, you know. ~~ Oh! yes, 
316:456,08[I  ]| quite indispensable." 
316:456,09['  ]| $EM#D$Miss*Bates looked about$4$ her, so$5#1$ happily! ~~ 
316:456,10[I  ]| "He promised to$9$ come to$4$ me as soon as he could disengage 
316:456,11[I  ]| himself from $EM#B$Knightley; but he and $EM#B$Knightley 
316:456,12[I  ]| are shut up$5$ together in$4$ deep consultation. ~~ $EM#H$Mr%*E% is 
316:456,13[I  ]| $EM#B$Knightley's right$2#2$ hand$0$." 
316:456,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma would not have smiled for$4$ the world, and only 
316:456,15['  ]| said, 
316:456,15[A  ]| "Is $EM#H$Mr%*Elton gone on$4$ foot to$4$ Donwell? ~~ He will$1$ 
316:456,16[A  ]| have a hot walk$0$." 
316:456,17[I  ]| "Oh! no$7$, it is a meeting at the Crown$0#1$, a regular 
316:456,18[I  ]| meeting. $EM#N$Weston and $EM#F$Cole will$1$ be there too$5#2$; but one is 
316:456,19[I  ]| apt to$9$ speak only of those who$6#1$ lead$1$. ~~ I fancy$1$ $EM#H$Mr%*E% and 
316:456,20[I  ]| $EM#B$Knightley have every*thing their own$2$ way." 
316:456,21[A  ]| "Have not you mistaken the day?" 
316:456,21['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma, 
316:456,22[A  ]| "I am almost certain that$3$ the meeting at the Crown$0#1$ is not 
316:456,23[A  ]| till to-morrow. ~~ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was at Hartfield yesterday, 
316:456,24[A  ]| and spoke of it as for$4$ Saturday." 
316:456,25[I  ]| "Oh! no$7$; the meeting is certainly to-day," 
316:456,25['  ]| was the 
316:456,26['  ]| abrupt answer$0$, which$6#1$ denoted the impossibility of any 
316:456,27['  ]| blunder$0$ on$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton's side$0$. ~~ 
316:456,27[I  ]| "I do believe," 
316:456,27['  ]| she continued, 
316:456,28[I  ]| "this is the most troublesome parish that$6#1$ ever 
316:456,29[I  ]| was. We never heard of such things at Maple*Grove." 
316:456,30[J  ]| "Your parish there was small," 
316:456,30['  ]| said $EM#J$Jane. 
316:456,31[I  ]| "Upon$4$ my word, my dear$2#1$, I do not know, for$3$ I never 
316:456,32[I  ]| heard the subject$0$ talked of." 
316:456,33[J  ]| "But it is proved by$4$ the smallness of the school, which$6#1$ 
316:456,34[J  ]| I have heard you speak of, as under the patronage of your 
316:456,35[J  ]| sister and $EM#ZB1$Mrs%*Bragge; the only school, and not more 
316:456,36[J  ]| than five-and-twenty children." 
316:456,37[I  ]| "Ah! you clever creature, that's very true. What 
316:456,38[I  ]| a thinking brain you have! I say, $EM#J$Jane, what a perfect$2$ 
316:457,01[I  ]| character you and I should make$1$, if we could be shaken 
316:457,02[I  ]| together. My liveliness and your solidity would produce 
316:457,03[I  ]| perfection. ~~ Not that$3$ I presume to$9$ insinuate, however, 
316:457,04[I  ]| that$3$ \some\ people may$1$ not think \you\ perfection already. ~~ 
316:457,05[I  ]| But hush! ~~ not a word, if you please." 
316:457,06['  ]| It seemed an unnecessary caution$0$; $EM#J$Jane was wanting 
316:457,07['  ]| to$9$ give her words, not to$4$ $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, but to$4$ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
316:457,08['  ]| as the latter plainly saw. 
316:457,08@a   | The wish$0$ of distinguishing 
316:457,09@a   | her, as far as civility permitted, was very evident, though 
316:457,10@a   | it could not often proceed beyond$4$ a look$0$. 
316:457,11['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton made his appearance. His lady greeted him 
316:457,12['  ]| with some of her sparkling vivacity. 
316:457,13[I  ]| "Very pretty$2$, sir, upon$4$ my word; to$9$ send me on$5$ here, 
316:457,14[I  ]| to$9$ be an encumbrance to$4$ my friends, so$5#1$ long before$3$ you 
316:457,15[I  ]| vouchsafe to$9$ come! ~~ But you knew what a dutiful 
316:457,16[I  ]| creature you had to$9$ deal$1$ with. You knew I should not 
316:457,17[I  ]| stir till my lord$0$ and master appeared. ~~ Here have I been 
316:457,18[I  ]| sitting this hour, giving these young ladies a sample of 
316:457,19[I  ]| true conjugal obedience ~~ for$3$ who$6#2$ can say, you know, how 
316:457,20[I  ]| soon it may$1$ be wanted?" 
316:457,21['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was so$5#1$ hot and tired, that$3$ all this wit seemed 
316:457,22['  ]| thrown away. His civilities to$4$ the other ladies must be 
316:457,23['  ]| paid; but his subsequent object$0$ was to$9$ lament over himself 
316:457,24['  ]| for$4$ the heat$0$ he was suffering, and the walk$0$ he had had 
316:457,25['  ]| for$4$ nothing. 
316:457,26[H  ]| "When I got to$4$ Donwell," 
316:457,26['  ]| said he, 
316:457,26[H  ]| "$EM#B$Knightley could 
316:457,27[H  ]| not be found. Very odd! very unaccountable! after$4$ the 
316:457,28[H  ]| note$0$ I sent him this morning, and the message he returned, 
316:457,29[H  ]| that$3$ he should certainly be at home till one." 
316:457,30[I  ]| "Donwell!" 
316:457,30['  ]| cried his wife ~~ 
316:457,30[I  ]| "My dear$2#1$ $EM#H$Mr%*E%, you 
316:457,31[I  ]| have not been to$4$ Donwell! ~~ You mean$1$ the Crown$0#1$; you 
316:457,32[I  ]| come from the meeting at the Crown$0#1$." 
316:457,33[H  ]| "No$7$, no$7$, that's to-morrow; and I particularly wanted 
316:457,34[H  ]| to$9$ see $EM#B$Knightley to-day on$4$ that$6#2$ very account$0$. ~~ Such 
316:457,35[H  ]| a dreadful broiling morning! ~~ I went over the fields too$5#2$ 
316:457,36['  ]| ~~ (speaking in$4$ a tone of great ill*usage,) 
316:457,36[H  ]| which$6#1$ made it so$5#1$ 
316:457,37[H  ]| much the worse. And then not to$9$ find him at home! 
316:457,38[H  ]| I assure you I am not at all pleased. And no$2$ apology left, 
316:458,01[H  ]| no$2$ message for$4$ me. The housekeeper declared she knew 
316:458,02[H  ]| nothing of my being$1$ expected. ~~ Very extraordinary! ~~ 
316:458,03[H  ]| And nobody knew at all which$6#1$ way he was gone. Perhaps 
316:458,04[H  ]| to$4$ Hartfield, perhaps to$4$ the Abbey*Mill, perhaps into his 
316:458,05[H  ]| woods. ~~ $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, this is not like$4$ our friend 
316:458,06[H  ]| $EM#B$Knightley. ~~ Can you explain it?" 
316:458,07['  ]| $EM#A$Emma amused herself by$4$ protesting that$3$ 
316:458,07@a   | it was very 
316:458,08@a   | extraordinary indeed, and that$3$ she had not a syllable to$9$ 
316:458,09@a   | say for$4$ him. 
316:458,10[I  ]| "I cannot imagine," 
316:458,10['  ]| cried $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, (feeling the 
316:458,11['  ]| indignity as a wife ought to$9$ do,) 
316:458,11[I  ]| "I cannot imagine how 
316:458,12[I  ]| he could do such a thing by$4$ you, of all people in$4$ the world! 
316:458,13[I  ]| The very last$2$ person whom$6#1$ one should expect to$9$ be forgotten! ~~ 
316:458,14[I  ]| My dear$2#1$ $EM#H$Mr%*E%, he must have left a message for$4$ 
316:458,15[I  ]| you, I am sure he must. ~~ Not even$5$ $EM#B$Knightley could be 
316:458,16[I  ]| so$5#1$ very eccentric; ~~ and his servants forgot it. Depend 
316:458,17[I  ]| upon$4$ it, that$6#2$ was the case: and very likely to$9$ happen 
316:458,18[I  ]| with the Donwell servants, who$6#1$ are all, I have often 
316:458,19[I  ]| observed, extremely awkward and remiss. ~~ I am sure 
316:458,20[I  ]| I would not have such a creature as his $EM#ZZF$Harry stand$1$ at 
316:458,21[I  ]| our sideboard for$4$ any consideration. And as for$4$ $EM#ZZI$Mrs%*Hodges, 
316:458,22[I  ]| $EM#ZZS$Wright holds her very cheap indeed. ~~ She 
316:458,23[I  ]| promised $EM#ZZS$Wright a receipt, and never sent it." 
316:458,24[H  ]| "I met $EM#W$William*Larkins," 
316:458,24['  ]| continued $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, 
316:458,24[H  ]| "as 
316:458,25[H  ]| I got near$4$ the house, and he told me I should not find his 
316:458,26[H  ]| master at home, but I did not believe him. ~~ $EM#W$William 
316:458,27[H  ]| seemed rather out$5$ of humour. 
316:458,27@w   | He did not know what 
316:458,28@w   | was come to$4$ his master lately, 
316:458,28[H  ]| he said, 
316:458,28@w   | but he could 
316:458,29@w   | hardly ever get the speech of him. 
316:458,29[H  ]| I have nothing to$9$ do 
316:458,30[H  ]| with $EM#W$William's wants$0$, but it really is of very great importance 
316:458,31[H  ]| that$3$ \I\ should see $EM#B$Knightley to*day; and it 
316:458,32[H  ]| becomes a matter, therefore, of very serious$2$ inconvenience 
316:458,33[H  ]| that$3$ I should have had this hot walk$0$ to$4$ no$2$ purpose." 
316:458,34['  ]| $EM#A$Emma felt that$3$ she could not do better than go home 
316:458,35['  ]| directly. 
316:458,35@a   | In$4$ all probability she was at this very time 
316:458,36@a   | waited for$4$ there; and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley might be preserved 
316:458,37@a   | from sinking deeper in$4$ aggression towards $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, if 
316:458,38@a   | not towards $EM#W$William*Larkins. 
316:459,01@a   | She was pleased, on$4$ taking leave$0$, to$9$ find $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax 
316:459,02@a   | determined to$9$ attend her out$5$ of the room, to$9$ go with her 
316:459,03@a   | even$5$ down*stairs; 
316:459,03['  ]| it gave her an opportunity which$6#1$ she 
316:459,04['  ]| immediately made use$0$ of, to$9$ say, 
316:459,05[A  ]| "It is as well$5$, perhaps, that$3$ I have not had the possibility. 
316:459,06[A  ]| Had you not been surrounded by$4$ other friends, 
316:459,07[A  ]| I might have been tempted to$9$ introduce a subject$0$, to$9$ ask 
316:459,08[A  ]| questions, to$9$ speak more openly than might have been 
316:459,09[A  ]| strictly correct$2$. ~~ I feel that$3$ I should certainly have been 
316:459,10[A  ]| impertinent." 
316:459,11[J  ]| "Oh!" 
316:459,11['  ]| cried $EM#J$Jane, with a blush$0$ and an hesitation 
316:459,12['  ]| which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma thought$1$ 
316:459,12@a   | infinitely more becoming to$4$ her than 
316:459,13@a   | all the elegance of all her usual composure ~~ 
316:459,13[J  ]| "there would 
316:459,14[J  ]| have been no$2$ danger. The danger would have been of my 
316:459,15[J  ]| wearying you. You could not have gratified me more 
316:459,16[J  ]| than by$4$ expressing an interest$0$ ~~. Indeed, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, 
316:459,17['  ]| (speaking more collectedly,) 
316:459,17[J  ]| with the consciousness 
316:459,18[J  ]| which$6#1$ I have of misconduct, very great misconduct, it is 
316:459,19[J  ]| particularly consoling to$4$ me to$9$ know that$3$ those of my 
316:459,20[J  ]| friends, whose$6#1$ good opinion is most worth preserving, are 
316:459,21[J  ]| not disgusted to$4$ such a degree as to$9$ ~~ I have not time for$4$ 
316:459,22[J  ]| half that$6#1$ I could wish$1$ to$9$ say. I long to$9$ make$1$ apologies, 
316:459,23[J  ]| excuses, to$9$ urge something for$4$ myself. I feel it so$5#1$ very 
316:459,24[J  ]| due$2$. But, unfortunately ~~ in$4$ short, if your compassion 
316:459,25[J  ]| does not stand$1$ my friend ~~" 
316:459,26[A  ]| "Oh! you are too$5#1$ scrupulous, indeed you are," 
316:459,26['  ]| cried 
316:459,27['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, warmly, and taking her hand$0$. 
316:459,27[A  ]| "You owe me no$2$ 
316:459,28[A  ]| apologies; and every*body to$4$ whom$6#1$ you might be supposed 
316:459,29[A  ]| to$9$ owe them, is so$5#1$ perfectly satisfied, so$5#1$ delighted even$5$ ~~" 
316:459,30[J  ]| "You are very kind$2$, but I know what my manners 
316:459,31[J  ]| were to$4$ you. ~~ So$5#1$ cold$2$ and artificial! ~~ I had always a part$0$ 
316:459,32[J  ]| to$9$ act$1$. ~~ It was a life of deceit! ~~ I know that$3$ I must have 
316:459,33[J  ]| disgusted you." 
316:459,34[A  ]| "Pray say no$2$ more. I feel that$3$ all the apologies should 
316:459,35[A  ]| be on$4$ my side$0$. Let us forgive each other at once. We 
316:459,36[A  ]| must do whatever is to$9$ be done quickest, and I think our 
316:459,37[A  ]| feelings will$1$ lose no$2$ time there. I hope$1$ you have pleasant 
316:459,38[A  ]| accounts from Windsor?" 
316:460,01[J  ]| "Very." 
316:460,02[A  ]| "And the next news, I suppose, will$1$ be, that$3$ we are to$9$ 
316:460,03[A  ]| lose you ~~ just$5$ as I begin to$9$ know you." 
316:460,04[J  ]| "Oh! as to$4$ all that$6#2$, of course$8$ nothing can be thought$1$ 
316:460,05[J  ]| of yet. I am here till claimed by$4$ $EM#ZC$Colonel and $EM#ZC1$Mrs%*Campbell." 
316:460,06[J  ]| 
316:460,07[A  ]| "Nothing can be actually settled yet, perhaps," 
316:460,07['  ]| replied 
316:460,08['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, smiling ~~ 
316:460,08[A  ]| "but, excuse$1$ me, it must be thought$1$ of." 
316:460,09['  ]| The smile$0$ was returned as $EM#J$Jane answered, 
316:460,10[J  ]| "You are very right$2#1$; it has been thought$1$ of. And 
316:460,11[J  ]| I will$1$ own$1$ to$4$ you, (I am sure it will$1$ be safe), that$3$ so$5#1$ far 
316:460,12[J  ]| as our living with $EM#W$Mr%*Churchill at Enscombe, it is settled. 
316:460,13[J  ]| There must be three months, at least, of deep mourning; 
316:460,14[J  ]| but when they are over, I imagine there will$1$ be nothing 
316:460,15[J  ]| more to$9$ wait for$4$." 
316:460,16[A  ]| "Thank you, thank you. ~~ This is just$5$ what I wanted 
316:460,17[A  ]| to$9$ be assured of. ~~ Oh! if you knew how much I love$1$ 
316:460,18[A  ]| every*thing that$6#1$ is decided and open$2$! ~~ Good*bye, good*bye." 
317:461,01['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's friends were all made happy by$4$ her 
317:461,02['  ]| safety; and if the satisfaction of her well-doing could be 
317:461,03['  ]| increased to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, it was by$4$ knowing her to$9$ be the 
317:461,04['  ]| mother of a little girl. She had been decided in$4$ wishing 
317:461,05['  ]| for$4$ a $EM#O1$Miss*Weston. She would not acknowledge that$3$ it 
317:461,06['  ]| was with any view$0$ of making a match$0$ for$4$ her, hereafter, 
317:461,07['  ]| with either of $EM#L$Isabella's sons; but she was convinced 
317:461,08['  ]| that$3$ 
317:461,08@a   | a daughter would suit$1$ both father and mother best. 
317:461,09@a   | It would be a great comfort$0$ to$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston as he grew older 
317:461,10@a   | ~~ and even$5$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston might be growing older ten years 
317:461,11@a   | hence ~~ to$9$ have his fireside enlivened by$4$ the sports$0$ and the 
317:461,12@a   | nonsense, the freaks and the fancies$0$ of a child never 
317:461,13@a   | banished from home; and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston ~~ no*one could 
317:461,14@a   | doubt$0$ that$3$ a daughter would be most to$4$ her; and it 
317:461,15@a   | would be quite a pity$0$ that$3$ any*one who$6#1$ so$5#1$ well$5$ knew how 
317:461,16@a   | to$9$ teach, should not have their powers in$4$ exercise$0$ again. 
317:461,17[A  ]| "She has had the advantage, you know, of practising 
317:461,18[A  ]| on$4$ me," 
317:461,18['  ]| she continued ~~ 
317:461,18[A  ]| "like$4$ $EM#Z2$La*Baronne*d'Almane on$4$ 
317:461,19[A  ]| $EM#Z2$La*Comtesse*d'Ostalis', in$4$ $EM#Z1$Madame*de*Genlis' Adelaide*and*Theodore, 
317:461,20[A  ]| and we shall now see her own$2$ little $EM#Z2$Adelaide 
317:461,21[A  ]| educated on$4$ a more perfect$2$ plan." 
317:461,22[B  ]| "That$6#2$ is," 
317:461,22['  ]| replied $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
317:461,22[B  ]| "she will$1$ indulge 
317:461,23[B  ]| her even$5$ more than she did you, and believe that$3$ she does 
317:461,24[B  ]| not indulge her at all. It will$1$ be the only difference." 
317:461,25[A  ]| "Poor child!" 
317:461,25['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma; 
317:461,25[A  ]| "at that$6#2$ rate$0$, what will$1$ 
317:461,26[A  ]| become of her?" 
317:461,27[B  ]| "Nothing very bad. ~~ The fate of thousands. She will$1$ 
317:461,28[B  ]| be disagreeable in$4$ infancy, and correct$2$ herself as she grows 
317:461,29[B  ]| older. I am losing all my bitterness against spoilt children, 
317:461,30[B  ]| my dearest $EM#A$Emma. I, who$6#1$ am owing all my happiness 
317:461,31[B  ]| to$4$ \you\, would not it be horrible ingratitude in$4$ me to$9$ be 
317:461,32[B  ]| severe on$4$ them?" 
317:462,01['  ]| $EM#A$Emma laughed, and replied: 
317:462,01[A  ]| "But I had the assistance 
317:462,02[A  ]| of all your endeavours$0$ to$9$ counteract the indulgence of other 
317:462,03[A  ]| people. I doubt$1$ whether my own$2$ sense would have 
317:462,04[A  ]| corrected me without it." 
317:462,05[B  ]| "Do you? ~~ I have no$2$ doubt$0$. Nature gave you understanding: ~~ 
317:462,06[B  ]| $EM#O$Miss*Taylor gave you principles. You must 
317:462,07[B  ]| have done well$5$. My interference was quite as likely to$9$ do 
317:462,08[B  ]| harm$0$ as good. It was very natural$2$ for$4$ you to$9$ say, what 
317:462,09[B  ]| right$0$ has he to$9$ lecture me? ~~ and I am afraid very natural$2$ 
317:462,10[B  ]| for$4$ you to$9$ feel that$3$ it was done in$4$ a disagreeable manner. 
317:462,11[B  ]| I do not believe I did you any good. The good was all to$4$ 
317:462,12[B  ]| myself, by$4$ making you an object$0$ of the tenderest affection 
317:462,13[B  ]| to$4$ me. I could not think about$4$ you so$5#1$ much without 
317:462,14[B  ]| doating on$4$ you, faults and all; and by$4$ dint of fancying 
317:462,15[B  ]| so$5#1$ many errors, have been in$4$ love$0$ with you ever since you 
317:462,16[B  ]| were thirteen at least." 
317:462,17[A  ]| "I am sure you were of use$0$ to$4$ me," 
317:462,17['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma. 
317:462,18[A  ]| "I was very often influenced rightly by$4$ you ~~ oftener than 
317:462,19[A  ]| I would own$1$ at the time. I am very sure you did me good. 
317:462,20[A  ]| And if poor little $EM#O1$Anna*Weston is to$9$ be spoiled, it will$1$ be 
317:462,21[A  ]| the greatest humanity in$4$ you to$9$ do as much for$4$ her as you 
317:462,22[A  ]| have done for$4$ me, except falling in$4$ love$0$ with her when 
317:462,23[A  ]| she is thirteen." 
317:462,24[B  ]| "How often, when you were a girl, have you said to$4$ me, 
317:462,25[B  ]| with one of your saucy looks$0$ ~~ 
317:462,25@a   | ""$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, I am going 
317:462,26@a   | to$9$ do so$5#2$ and so$5#2$; papa says I may$1$, or, I have $EM#O$Miss*Taylor's 
317:462,27@a   | leave$0$"" ~~ 
317:462,27[B  ]| something which$6#1$, you knew, I did not approve. 
317:462,28[B  ]| In$4$ such cases my interference was giving you two bad 
317:462,29[B  ]| feelings instead of one." 
317:462,30[A  ]| "What an amiable creature I was! ~~ No$2$ wonder$0$ you 
317:462,31[A  ]| should hold$1$ my speeches in$4$ such affectionate remembrance." 
317:462,32[A  ]| 
317:462,33@a   | ""$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley."" ~~ 
317:462,33[B  ]| You always called me, 
317:462,33@a   | ""$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley;"" 
317:462,34[B  ]| and, from habit, it has not so$5#1$ very formal a sound$0$. 
317:462,35[B  ]| ~~ And yet it is formal. I want$1$ you to$9$ call$1$ me something 
317:462,36[B  ]| else, but I do not know what." 
317:462,37[A  ]| "I remember once calling you ""$EM#B$George,"" in$4$ one of my 
317:462,38[A  ]| amiable fits, about$4$ ten years ago. I did it because 
317:463,01[A  ]| I thought$1$ it would offend you; but, as you made no$2$ 
317:463,02[A  ]| objection, I never did it again." 
317:463,03[B  ]| "And cannot you call$1$ me ""$EM#B$George"" now?" 
317:463,04[A  ]| "Impossible! ~~ I never can call$1$ you any*thing but 
317:463,05[A  ]| ""$EM#B$Mr%*Knightley."" I will$1$ not promise$1$ even$5$ to$9$ equal$1$ the 
317:463,06[A  ]| elegant terseness of $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, by$4$ calling you $EM#B$Mr%*K% ~~ 
317:463,07[A  ]| But I will$1$ promise$1$," 
317:463,07['  ]| she added presently, laughing and 
317:463,08['  ]| blushing ~~ 
317:463,08[A  ]| "I will$1$ promise$1$ to$9$ call$1$ you once by$4$ your 
317:463,09[A  ]| Christian name$0$. I do not say when, but perhaps you may$1$ 
317:463,10[A  ]| guess$1$ where; ~~ in$4$ the building in$4$ which$6#1$ N% takes M% for$4$ 
317:463,11[A  ]| better, for$4$ worse." 
317:463,12['  ]| $EM#A$Emma grieved that$3$ 
317:463,12@a   | she could not be more openly just$2$ 
317:463,13@a   | to$4$ one important service which$6#1$ his better sense would 
317:463,14@a   | have rendered her, to$4$ the advice which$6#1$ would have saved 
317:463,15@a   | her from the worst of all her womanly follies ~~ her wilful 
317:463,16@a   | intimacy with $EM#M$Harriet*Smith; but it was too$5#1$ tender$2$ 
317:463,17@a   | a subject$0$. ~~ She could not enter on$4$ it. ~~ $EM#M$Harriet was very 
317:463,18@a   | seldom mentioned between them. This, on$4$ his side$0$, might 
317:463,19@a   | merely proceed from her not being$1$ thought$1$ of; but $EM#A$Emma 
317:463,20@a   | was rather inclined to$9$ attribute it to$4$ delicacy, and a suspicion, 
317:463,21@a   | from some appearances, that$3$ their friendship were 
317:463,22@a   | declining. She was aware herself, that$3$, parting under any 
317:463,23@a   | other circumstances, they certainly should have corresponded 
317:463,24@a   | more, and that$3$ her intelligence would not have 
317:463,25@a   | rested, as it now almost wholly did, on$4$ $EM#L$Isabella's letters. 
317:463,26@a   | He might observe that$3$ it was so$5#2$. The pain$0$ of being$1$ 
317:463,27@a   | obliged to$9$ practise concealment towards him, was very 
317:463,28@a   | little inferior to$4$ the pain$0$ of having made $EM#M$Harriet unhappy. 
317:463,29@a   | $EM#L$Isabella sent quite as good an account$0$ of her visitor as 
317:463,30@a   | could be expected; on$4$ her first arrival she had thought$1$ 
317:463,31@a   | her out$5$ of spirits, which$6#1$ appeared perfectly natural$2$, as 
317:463,32@a   | there was a dentist to$9$ be consulted; but, since that$6#2$ 
317:463,33@a   | business had been over, she did not appear to$9$ find $EM#M$Harriet 
317:463,34@a   | different from what she had known her before$5$. ~~ $EM#L$Isabella, 
317:463,35@a   | to$9$ be sure, was no$2$ very quick$2$ observer; yet if $EM#M$Harriet had 
317:463,36@a   | not been equal$2$ to$4$ playing with the children, it would not 
317:463,37@a   | have escaped her. 
317:463,37['  ]| $EM#A$Emma's comforts and hopes$0$ were most 
317:463,38['  ]| agreeably carried on$5$, by$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's being$1$ to$9$ stay$1$ longer; 
317:464,01['  ]| her fortnight was likely to$9$ be a month at least. $EM#K$Mr% and 
317:464,02['  ]| $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley were to$9$ come down$5$ in$4$ August, and 
317:464,03['  ]| she was invited to$9$ remain till they could bring her back$5$. 
317:464,04[B  ]| "$EM#K$John does not even$5$ mention$1$ your friend," 
317:464,04['  ]| said 
317:464,05['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
317:464,05[B  ]| "Here is his answer$0$, if you like$1$ to$9$ see it." 
317:464,06['  ]| It was the answer$0$ to$4$ the communication of his intended 
317:464,07['  ]| marriage. $EM#A$Emma accepted it with a very eager hand$0$, with 
317:464,08['  ]| an impatience all alive to$9$ know what he would say about$4$ it, 
317:464,09['  ]| and not at all checked by$4$ hearing that$3$ her friend was unmentioned. 
317,464,10['  ]| 
317:464,11[B  ]| "$EM#K$John enters like$4$ a brother into my happiness," 
317:464,11['  ]| continued 
317:464,12['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
317:464,12[B  ]| "but he is no$2$ complimenter; and 
317:464,13[B  ]| though I well$5$ know him to$9$ have, likewise, a most brotherly 
317:464,14[B  ]| affection for$4$ you, he is so$5#1$ far from making flourishes, that$3$ 
317:464,15[B  ]| any other young woman might think him rather cool$2$ in$4$ her 
317:464,16[B  ]| praise$0$. But I am not afraid of your seeing what he 
317:464,17[B  ]| writes." 
317:464,18[A  ]| "He writes like$4$ a sensible$2#2$ man," 
317:464,18['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma, when 
317:464,19['  ]| she had read the letter. 
317:464,19[A  ]| "I honour$1$ his sincerity. It is 
317:464,20[A  ]| very plain that$3$ he considers the good fortune of the 
317:464,21[A  ]| engagement as all on$4$ my side$0$, but that$3$ he is not without 
317:464,22[A  ]| hope$0$ of my growing, in$4$ time, as worthy of your affection, 
317:464,23[A  ]| as you think me already. Had he said any*thing to$9$ bear$1$ 
317:464,24[A  ]| a different construction, I should not have believed him." 
317:464,25[B  ]| "My $EM#A$Emma, he means$1$ no$2$ such thing. He only means$1$ 
317:464,26[B  ]| ~~ " 
317:464,27[A  ]| "He and I should differ very little in$4$ our estimation of 
317:464,28[A  ]| the two," 
317:464,28['  ]| ~~ interrupted she, with a sort of serious$2$ smile$0$ 
317:464,29[A  ]| ~~ "much less, perhaps, than he is aware of, if we could 
317:464,30[A  ]| enter without ceremony or reserve$0$ on$4$ the subject$0$." 
317:464,31[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma ~~" 
317:464,32[A  ]| "Oh!" 
317:464,32['  ]| she cried with more thorough gaiety, 
317:464,32[A  ]| "if you 
317:464,33[A  ]| fancy$1$ your brother does not do me justice, only wait till 
317:464,34[A  ]| my dear$2#1$ father is in$4$ the secret$0$, and hear his opinion. 
317:464,35[A  ]| Depend upon$4$ it, he will$1$ be much farther from doing \you\ 
317:464,36[A  ]| justice. He will$1$ think all the happiness, all the advantage, 
317:464,37[A  ]| on$4$ your side$0$ of the question$0$; all the merit$0$ on$4$ mine$6$. 
317:464,38[A  ]| I wish$1$ I may$1$ not sink into ""poor $EM#A$Emma"" with him at once. 
317:465,01[A  ]| ~~ His tender$2$ compassion towards oppressed worth can go 
317:465,02[A  ]| no$2$ farther." 
317:465,03[B  ]| "Ah!" 
317:465,03['  ]| he cried, 
317:465,03[B  ]| "I wish$1$ your father might be half as 
317:465,04[B  ]| easily convinced as $EM#K$John will$1$ be, of our having every right$0$ 
317:465,05[B  ]| that$6#1$ equal$2$ worth can give, to$9$ be happy together. I am 
317:465,06[B  ]| amused by$4$ one part$0$ of $EM#K$John's letter ~~ did you notice$1$ it? ~~ 
317:465,07[B  ]| where he says, that$3$ my information did not take him 
317:465,08[B  ]| wholly by$4$ surprise$0$, that$3$ he was rather in$4$ expectation of 
317:465,09[B  ]| hearing something of the kind$0$." 
317:465,10[A  ]| "If I understand your brother, he only means$1$ so$5#1$ far 
317:465,11[A  ]| as your having some thoughts of marrying. He had no$2$ 
317:465,12[A  ]| idea of me. He seems perfectly unprepared for$4$ that$6#2$." 
317:465,13[B  ]| "Yes, yes ~~ but I am amused that$3$ he should have seen 
317:465,14[B  ]| so$5#1$ far into my feelings. What has he been judging by$4$? ~~ 
317:465,15[B  ]| I am not conscious of any difference in$4$ my spirits or conversation 
317:465,16[B  ]| that$6#1$ could prepare him at this time for$4$ my 
317:465,17[B  ]| marrying any more than at another. ~~ But it was so$5#2$, 
317:465,18[B  ]| I suppose. I dare$1#2$ say there was a difference when I was 
317:465,19[B  ]| staying with them the other day. I believe I did not play$1$ 
317:465,20[B  ]| with the children quite so$5#1$ much as usual. I remember one 
317:465,21[B  ]| evening the poor boys saying, 
317:465,21@y   | ""Uncle seems always tired 
317:465,22@y   | now."" " 
317:465,23['  ]| The time was coming when the news must be spread 
317:465,24['  ]| farther, and other persons' reception of it tried. As soon 
317:465,25['  ]| as $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was sufficiently recovered to$9$ admit 
317:465,26['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's visits, $EM#A$Emma having it in$4$ view$0$ that$3$ 
317:465,27['  ]| her gentle reasonings should be employed in$4$ the cause, 
317:465,28['  ]| resolved first to$9$ announce it at home, and then at Randall's. 
317:465,29@a   | ~~ But how to$9$ break it to$4$ her father at last$0$! ~~ 
317:465,29['  ]| She had 
317:465,30['  ]| bound herself to$9$ do it, in$4$ such an hour of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's 
317:465,31['  ]| absence, or when it came to$4$ the point$0$ her heart would 
317:465,32['  ]| have failed her, and she must have put it off; but 
317:465,33['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley was to$9$ come at such a time, and follow up$5$ 
317:465,34['  ]| the beginning she was to$9$ make$1$. ~~ She was forced to$9$ speak, 
317:465,35['  ]| and to$9$ speak cheerfully too$5#2$. 
317:465,35@a   | She must not make$1$ it 
317:465,36@a   | a more decided subject$0$ of misery to$4$ him, by$4$ a melancholy$2$ 
317:465,37@a   | tone herself. She must not appear to$9$ think it a misfortune. 
317:465,38['  ]| ~~ With all the spirits she could command$1$, she prepared 
317:466,01['  ]| him first for$4$ something strange, and then, in$4$ few words, 
317:466,02['  ]| said, that$3$ 
317:466,02@a   | if his consent$0$ and approbation could be obtained 
317:466,03@a   | ~~ which$6#1$, she trusted, would be attended with no$2$ difficulty, 
317:466,04@a   | since it was a plan to$9$ promote the happiness of all ~~ she 
317:466,05@a   | and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley meant to$9$ marry; by$4$ which$6#1$ means$0$ 
317:466,06@a   | Hartfield would receive the constant addition of that$6#2$ 
317:466,07@a   | person's company whom$6#1$ she knew he loved, next to$4$ his 
317:466,08@a   | daughters and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, best in$4$ the world. 
317:466,09['  ]| Poor man! ~~ it was at first a considerable shock$0$ to$4$ him, 
317:466,10['  ]| and he tried earnestly to$9$ dissuade her from it. She was 
317:466,11['  ]| reminded, more than once, of 
317:466,11@p   | her having always said she 
317:466,12@p   | would never marry, 
317:466,12['  ]| and assured that$3$ 
317:466,12@p   | it would be a great 
317:466,13@p   | deal$0$ better for$4$ her to$9$ remain single; 
317:466,13['  ]| and told of 
317:466,13@p   | poor 
317:466,14@p   | $EM#L$Isabella, and poor $EM#O$Miss*Taylor. 
317:466,14['  ]| ~~ But it would not do. 
317:466,15['  ]| $EM#A$Emma hung about$4$ him affectionately, and smiled, and 
317:466,16['  ]| said 
317:466,16@a   | it must be so$5#2$; and that$3$ he must not class$1$ her with 
317:466,17@a   | $EM#L$Isabella and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, whose$6#1$ marriages taking them 
317:466,18@a   | from Hartfield, had, indeed, made a melancholy$2$ change$0$: 
317:466,19@a   | but she was not going from Hartfield; she should 
317:466,20@a   | be always there; she was introducing no$2$ change$0$ in$4$ 
317:466,21@a   | their numbers or their comforts but for$4$ the better; 
317:466,22@a   | and she was very sure that$3$ he would be a great deal$0$ 
317:466,23@a   | the happier for$4$ having $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley always at hand$0$, 
317:466,24@a   | when he were once got used to$4$ the idea. ~~ Did not he 
317:466,25@a   | love$1$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley very much? ~~ He would not deny that$3$ 
317:466,26@a   | he did, she was sure. ~~ Whom$6#2$ did he ever want$1$ to$9$ consult 
317:466,27@a   | on$4$ business but $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley? ~~ Who$6#2$ was so$5#1$ useful to$4$ 
317:466,28@a   | him, who$6#2$ so$5#1$ ready to$9$ write his letters, who$6#2$ so$5#1$ glad to$9$ 
assist 
317:466,29@a   | him? ~~ Who$6#2$ so$5#1$ cheerful, so$5#1$ attentive, so$5#1$ attached to$4$ him? 
317:466,30@a   | ~~ Would not he like$1$ to$9$ have him always on$4$ the spot? ~~ 
317:466,31@p   | Yes. That$6#2$ was all very true. $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley could not be 
317:466,32@p   | there too$5#1$ often; he should be glad to$9$ see him every day; ~~ 
317:466,33@p   | but they did see him every day as it was. ~~ Why could not 
317:466,34@p   | they go on$5$ as they had done? 
317:466,35['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse could not be soon reconciled; but the 
317:466,36['  ]| worst was overcome, the idea was given; time and 
317:466,37['  ]| continual repetition must do the rest$0#1$. ~~ To$4$ $EM#A$Emma's entreaties 
317:466,38['  ]| and assurances succeeded $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's, whose$6#1$ 
317:467,01['  ]| fond praise$0$ of her gave the subject$0$ even$5$ a kind$2$ of welcome$0$; 
317:467,02['  ]| and he was soon used to$9$ be talked to$5$ by$4$ each, on$4$ every 
317:467,03['  ]| fair occasion$0$. ~~ They had all the assistance which$6#1$ $EM#L$Isabella 
317:467,04['  ]| could give, by$4$ letters of the strongest approbation; and 
317:467,05['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was ready, on$4$ the first meeting, to$9$ consider 
317:467,06['  ]| the subject$0$ in$4$ the most serviceable light$0$ ~~ first, as a settled, 
317:467,07['  ]| and secondly, as a good one ~~ well$5$ aware of the nearly 
317:467,08['  ]| equal$2$ importance of the two recommendations to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's 
317:467,09['  ]| mind$0$. ~~ It was agreed upon$5$, as what was to$9$ 
317:467,10['  ]| be; and every*body by$4$ whom$6#1$ he was used to$9$ be guided 
317:467,11['  ]| assuring him that$3$ it would be for$4$ his happiness; and 
317:467,12['  ]| having some feelings himself which$6#1$ almost admitted it, he 
317:467,13['  ]| began to$9$ think that$3$ 
317:467,13@p   | some time or other ~~ in$4$ another year 
317:467,14@p   | or two, perhaps ~~ it might not be so$5#1$ very bad if the 
317:467,15@p   | marriage did take place$0$. 
317:467,16['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was acting no$2$ part$0$, feigning no$2$ feelings in$4$ 
317:467,17['  ]| all that$6#1$ she said to$4$ him in$4$ favour$0$ of the event. ~~ She had 
317:467,18['  ]| been extremely surprised, never more so$5#2$, than when 
317:467,19['  ]| $EM#A$Emma first opened the affair to$4$ her; but she saw in$4$ it 
317:467,20['  ]| only increase$0$ of happiness to$4$ all, and had no$2$ scruple$0$ in$4$ 
317:467,21['  ]| urging him to$4$ the utmost. ~~ 
317:467,21@o   | She had such a regard$0$ for$4$

317:467,23@o   | $EM#A$Emma; and it was in$4$ every respect$0$ so$5#1$ proper, suitable, 
317:467,24@o   | and unexceptionable a connexion, and in$4$ one respect$0$, one 
317:467,25@o   | point$0$ of the highest importance, so$5#1$ peculiarly eligible, so$5#1$ 
317:467,26@o   | singularly fortunate, that$3$ now it seemed as if $EM#A$Emma could 
317:467,27@o   | not safely have attached herself to$4$ any other creature, and 
317:467,28@o   | that$3$ she had herself been the stupidest of beings in$4$ not 
317:467,29@o   | having thought$1$ of it, and wished it long ago. ~~ How very 
317:467,30@o   | few of those men in$4$ a rank$0$ of life to$9$ address$1$ $EM#A$Emma would 
317:467,31@o   | have renounced their own$2$ home for$4$ Hartfield! And who$6#2$ 
317:467,32@o   | but $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley could know and bear$1$ with $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, 
317:467,33@o   | so$3$ as to$9$ make$1$ such an arrangement desirable! 
317:467,34@o   | The difficulty of disposing of poor $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse had 
317:467,35@o   | been always felt in$4$ her husband's plans and her own$2$, for$4$ 
317:467,36@o   | a marriage between $EM#E$Frank and $EM#A$Emma. How to$9$ settle the 
317:467,37@o   | claims of Enscombe and Hartfield had been a continual 
317:467,38@o   | impediment ~~ less acknowledged by$4$ $EM#N$Mr%*Weston than by$4$ 
317:468,01@o   | herself ~~ but even$5$ he had never been able to$9$ finish$1$ the 
317:468,02@o   | subject$0$ better than by$4$ saying ~~ 
317:468,02@n   | "Those matters will$1$ take 
317:468,03@n   | care$0$ of themselves; the young people will$1$ find a way." ~~ 
317:468,04@o   | But here there was nothing to$9$ be shifted off in$4$ a wild 
317:468,05@o   | speculation on$4$ the future. It was all right$2#1$, all open$2$, all 
317:468,06@o   | equal$2$. No$2$ sacrifice$0$ on$4$ any side$0$ worth the name$0$. It was 
317:468,07@o   | a union of the highest promise$0$ of felicity in$4$ itself, and 
317:468,08@o   | without one real, rational difficulty to$9$ oppose or delay$1$ it. 
317:468,09['  ]| $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston, with her baby on$4$ her knee, indulging in$4$ 
317:468,10['  ]| such reflections as these, was one of the happiest women in$4$ 
317:468,11['  ]| the world. If any*thing could increase$1$ her delight$0$, it was 
317:468,12['  ]| perceiving that$3$ the baby would soon have outgrown its 
317:468,13['  ]| first set$0$ of caps. 
317:468,14['  ]| The news was universally a surprise$0$ wherever it spread; 
317:468,15['  ]| and $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had his five minutes share$0$ of it; but five 
317:468,16['  ]| minutes were enough to$9$ familiarize the idea to$4$ his quickness 
317:468,17['  ]| of mind$0$. ~~ He saw the advantages of the match$0$, and 
317:468,18['  ]| rejoiced in$4$ them with all the constancy of his wife; but 
317:468,19['  ]| the wonder$0$ of it was very soon nothing; and by$4$ the end$0$ 
317:468,20['  ]| of an hour he was not far from believing that$3$ he had 
317:468,21['  ]| always foreseen it. 
317:468,22[N  ]| "It is to$9$ be a secret$0$, I conclude," 
317:468,22['  ]| said he. 
317:468,22[N  ]| "These 
317:468,23[N  ]| matters are always a secret$0$, till it is found out$5$ that$3$ every*body 
317:468,24[N  ]| knows them. Only let me be told when I may$1$ 
317:468,25[N  ]| speak out$5$. ~~ I wonder$1$ whether $EM#J$Jane has any suspicion." 
317:468,26['  ]| He went to$4$ Highbury the next morning, and satisfied 
317:468,27['  ]| himself on$4$ that$6#2$ point$0$. He told her the news. 
317:468,27@n   | Was not 
317:468,28@n   | she like$4$ a daughter, his eldest daughter? ~~ he must tell 
317:468,29@n   | her; 
317:468,29['  ]| and $EM#D$Miss*Bates being$1$ present$5$, it passed, of course$8$, to$4$ 
317:468,30['  ]| $EM#G$Mrs%*Cole, $EM#V1$Mrs%*Perry, and $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, immediately afterwards. 
317:468,31['  ]| It was no$2$ more than the principals were prepared 
317:468,32['  ]| for$5$; they had calculated from the time of its being$1$ known 
317:468,33['  ]| at Randall's, how soon it would be over Highbury; and 
317:468,34['  ]| were thinking of themselves, as the evening wonder$0$ in$4$ 
317:468,35['  ]| many a family circle, with great sagacity. 
317:468,36['  ]| In$4$ general$0$, it was a very well$5$ approved match$0$. Some 
317:468,37['  ]| might think him, and others might think her, the most 
317:468,38['  ]| in$4$ luck. One set$0$ might recommend their all removing to$4$ 
317:469,01['  ]| Donwell, and leaving Hartfield for$4$ the $EM#K1$John*Knightleys; 
317:469,02['  ]| and another might predict disagreements among their 
317:469,03['  ]| servants; but yet, upon$4$ the whole$0$, there was no$2$ serious$2$ 
317:469,04['  ]| objection raised, except in$4$ one habitation, the vicarage. 
317:469,05['  ]| ~~ There, the surprise$0$ was not softened by$4$ any satisfaction. 
317:469,06['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton cared little about$4$ it, compared with his wife; 
317:469,07['  ]| he only hoped 
317:469,07[H  ]| "the young lady's pride would now be 
317:469,08[H  ]| contented;" 
317:469,08['  ]| and supposed 
317:469,08[H  ]| "she had always meant to$9$ 
317:469,09[H  ]| catch$1$ $EM#B$Knightley if she could;" 
317:469,09['  ]| and, on$4$ the point$0$ of living 
317:469,10['  ]| at Hartfield, could daringly exclaim, 
317:469,10[H  ]| "Rather he than I!" 
317:469,11['  ]| ~~ But $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton was very much discomposed indeed. ~~ 
317:469,12[I  ]| "Poor $EM#B$Knightley! poor fellow! ~~ sad business for$4$ him. ~~ 
317:469,13[I  ]| She was extremely concerned; for$3$, though very eccentric, 
317:469,14[I  ]| he had a thousand good qualities. ~~ How could he be so$5#1$ 
317:469,15[I  ]| taken in$5$? ~~ Did not think him at all in$4$ love$0$ ~~ not in$4$ the 
317:469,16[I  ]| least. ~~ Poor $EM#B$Knightley! ~~ There would be an end$0$ of all 
317:469,17[I  ]| pleasant intercourse with him. ~~ How happy he had been 
317:469,18[I  ]| to$9$ come and dine with them whenever they asked him! 
317:469,19[I  ]| But that$6#2$ would be all over now. ~~ Poor fellow! ~~ No$2$ more 
317:469,20[I  ]| exploring parties to$4$ Donwell made for$4$ \her\. Oh! no$7$; 
317:469,21[I  ]| there would be a $EM#A$Mrs%*Knightley to$9$ throw$1$ cold$2$ water on$4$ 
317:469,22[I  ]| every*thing. ~~ Extremely disagreeable! But she was not 
317:469,23[I  ]| at all sorry that$3$ she had abused the housekeeper the other 
317:469,24[I  ]| day. ~~ Shocking plan, living together. It would never do. 
317:469,25[I  ]| She knew a family near$4$ Maple*Grove who$6#1$ had tried it, and 
317:469,26[I  ]| been obliged to$9$ separate$1$ before$4$ the end$0$ of the first quarter$0#1$. 
318:470,01['  ]| Time passed on$5$. A few more to-morrows, and the 
318:470,02['  ]| party from London would be arriving. It was an alarming 
318:470,03['  ]| change$0$; and $EM#A$Emma was thinking of it one morning as 
318:470,04['  ]| what must bring a great deal$0$ to$9$ agitate and grieve her, 
318:470,05['  ]| when $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley came in$5$, and distressing thoughts 
318:470,06['  ]| were put by$5$. After$4$ the first chat$0$ of pleasure he was silent; 
318:470,07['  ]| and then, in$4$ a graver tone, began with, 
318:470,08[B  ]| "I have something to$9$ tell you, $EM#A$Emma; some news." 
318:470,09[A  ]| "Good or bad?" 
318:470,09['  ]| said she, quickly, looking up$5$ in$4$ his 
318:470,10['  ]| face$0$. 
318:470,11[B  ]| "I do not know which$6#1$ it ought to$9$ be called." 
318:470,12[A  ]| "Oh! good I am sure. ~~ I see it in$4$ your countenance. 
318:470,13[A  ]| You are trying not to$9$ smile$1$." 
318:470,14[B  ]| "I am afraid," 
318:470,14['  ]| said he, composing his features, 
318:470,14[B  ]| "I am 
318:470,15[B  ]| very much afraid, my dear$2#1$ $EM#A$Emma, that$3$ you will$1$ not smile$1$ 
318:470,16[B  ]| when you hear it." 
318:470,17[A  ]| "Indeed! but why so$5#2$? ~~ I can hardly imagine that$3$ 
318:470,18[A  ]| any*thing which$6#1$ pleases or amuses you, should not please 
318:470,19[A  ]| and amuse me too$5#2$." 
318:470,20[B  ]| "There is one subject$0$," 
318:470,20['  ]| he replied, 
318:470,20[B  ]| "I hope$1$ but one, 
318:470,21[B  ]| on$4$ which$6#1$ we do not think alike." 
318:470,21['  ]| He paused a moment, 
318:470,22['  ]| again smiling, with his eyes fixed on$4$ her face$0$. 
318:470,22[B  ]| "Does 
318:470,23[B  ]| nothing occur to$4$ you? ~~ Do not you recollect? ~~ $EM#M$Harriet*Smith." 
318:470,24['  ]| Her cheeks flushed at the name$0$, and she felt afraid of 
318:470,25['  ]| something, though she knew not what. 
318:470,26[B  ]| "Have you heard from her yourself this morning?" 
318:470,27['  ]| cried he. 
318:470,27[B  ]| "You have, I believe, and know the whole$0$." 
318:470,28[A  ]| "No$7$, I have not; I know nothing; pray tell me." 
318:470,29[B  ]| "You are prepared for$4$ the worst, I see ~~ and very bad 
318:470,30[B  ]| it is. $EM#M$Harriet*Smith marries $EM#R$Robert*Martin." 
318:470,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma gave a start$0$, which$6#1$ did not seem like$4$ being$1$ 
318:471,01['  ]| prepared ~~ and her eyes, in$4$ eager gaze, said, 
318:471,01@a   | "No$7$, this is 
318:471,02@a   | impossible!" 
318:471,02['  ]| but her lips were closed. 
318:471,03[B  ]| "It is so$5#2$, indeed," 
318:471,03['  ]| continued $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; 
318:471,03[B  ]| "I have 
318:471,04[B  ]| it from $EM#R$Robert*Martin himself. He left me not half an 
318:471,05[B  ]| hour ago." 
318:471,06['  ]| She was still$5$ looking at him with the most speaking 
318:471,07['  ]| amazement. 
318:471,08[B  ]| "You like$1$ it, my $EM#A$Emma, as little as I feared. ~~ I wish$1$ 
318:471,09[B  ]| our opinions were the same. But in$4$ time they will$1$. Time, 
318:471,10[B  ]| you may$1$ be very sure, will$1$ make$1$ one or the other of us 
318:471,11[B  ]| think differently; and, in$4$ the meanwhile, we need$1$ not talk$1$ 
318:471,12[B  ]| much on$4$ the subject$0$." 
318:471,13[A  ]| "You mistake$1$ me, you quite mistake$1$ me," 
318:471,13['  ]| she replied, 
318:471,14['  ]| exerting herself. 
318:471,14[A  ]| "It is not that$3$ such a circumstance 
318:471,15[A  ]| would now make$1$ me unhappy, but I cannot believe it. 
318:471,16[A  ]| It seems an impossibility! ~~ You cannot mean$1$ to$9$ say, that$3$ 
318:471,17[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet*Smith has accepted $EM#R$Robert*Martin. You cannot 
318:471,18[A  ]| mean$1$ that$3$ he has even$5$ proposed to$4$ her again ~~ yet. You 
318:471,19[A  ]| only mean$1$, that$3$ he intends it." 
318:471,20[B  ]| "I mean$1$ that$3$ he has done it," 
318:471,20['  ]| answered $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
318:471,21['  ]| with smiling but determined decision, 
318:471,21[B  ]| "and been accepted." 
318,471,22[B  ]| 
318:471,23[A  ]| "Good God!" 
318:471,23['  ]| she cried. ~~ 
318:471,23[A  ]| "Well$7$!" ~~ 
318:471,23['  ]| Then having 
318:471,24['  ]| recourse to$4$ her workbasket, in$4$ excuse$0$ for$4$ leaning down$5$ 
318:471,25['  ]| her face$0$, and concealing all the exquisite feelings of delight$0$ 
318:471,26['  ]| and entertainment which$6#1$ she knew she must be expressing, 
318:471,27['  ]| she added, 
318:471,27[A  ]| "Well$7$, now tell me every*thing; make$1$ this 
318:471,28[A  ]| intelligible to$4$ me. How, where, when? ~~ Let me know it 
318:471,29[A  ]| all. I never was more surprised ~~ but it does not make$1$ 
318:471,30[A  ]| me unhappy, I assure you. ~~ How ~~ how has it been possible?" 
318,471,31[A  ]| 
318:471,32[B  ]| "It is a very simple$2$ story. He went to$4$ town on$4$ 
318:471,33[B  ]| business three days ago, and I got him to$9$ take charge$0$ of 
318:471,34[B  ]| some papers which$6#1$ I was wanting to$9$ send to$4$ $EM#K$John. ~~ He 
318:471,35[B  ]| delivered these papers to$4$ $EM#K$John, at his chambers, and was 
318:471,36[B  ]| asked by$4$ him to$9$ join their party the same evening to$4$ 
318:471,37[B  ]| $EM#Z1$Astley's. They were going to$9$ take the two eldest boys 
318:471,38[B  ]| to$4$ $EM#Z1$Astley's. The party was to$9$ be our brother and sister, 
318:472,01[B  ]| $EM#L1$Henry, $EM#L2$John ~~ and $EM#M$Miss*Smith. My friend $EM#R$Robert could 
318:472,02[B  ]| not resist. They called for$4$ him in$4$ their way; were all 
318:472,03[B  ]| extremely amused; and my brother asked him to$9$ dine 
318:472,04[B  ]| with them the next day ~~ which$6#1$ he did ~~ and in$4$ the course$0$ 
318:472,05[B  ]| of that$6#2$ visit$0$ (as I understand) he found an opportunity of 
318:472,06[B  ]| speaking to$4$ $EM#M$Harriet; and certainly did not speak in$4$ vain. 
318:472,07[B  ]| ~~ She made him, by$4$ her acceptance, as happy even$5$ as he 
318:472,08[B  ]| is deserving. He came down$5$ by$4$ yesterday's coach, and 
318:472,09[B  ]| was with me this morning immediately after$4$ breakfast$0$, 
318:472,10[B  ]| to$9$ report$1$ his proceedings, first on$4$ my affairs, and then on$4$ 
318:472,11[B  ]| his own$2$. This is all that$6#1$ I can relate of the how, where, 
318:472,12[B  ]| and when. Your friend $EM#M$Harriet will$1$ make$1$ a much longer 
318:472,13[B  ]| history when you see her. ~~ She will$1$ give you all the 
318:472,14[B  ]| minute$2$ particulars, which$6#1$ only woman's language can 
318:472,15[B  ]| make$1$ interesting. ~~ In$4$ our communications we deal$1$ only 
318:472,16[B  ]| in$4$ the great. ~~ However, I must say that$3$ $EM#R$Robert*Martin's 
318:472,17[B  ]| heart seemed for$4$ \him\, and to$4$ \me\, very overflowing; and 
318:472,18[B  ]| that$3$ he did mention$1$, without its being$1$ much to$4$ the purpose, 
318:472,19[B  ]| that$3$ on$4$ quitting their box at $EM#Z1$Astley's, my brother 
318:472,20[B  ]| took charge$0$ of $EM#L$Mrs%*John*Knightley and little $EM#L2$John, and 
318:472,21[B  ]| he followed with $EM#M$Miss*Smith and $EM#L1$Henry; and that$3$ at one 
318:472,22[B  ]| time they were in$4$ such a crowd, as to$9$ make$1$ $EM#M$Miss*Smith 
318:472,23[B  ]| rather uneasy." 
318:472,24['  ]| He stopped. ~~ $EM#A$Emma dared not attempt$1$ any immediate 
318:472,25['  ]| reply$0$. 
318:472,25@a   | To$9$ speak, she was sure would be to$9$ betray a most 
318:472,26@a   | unreasonable degree of happiness. She must wait a 
318:472,27@a   | moment, or he would think her mad. 
318:472,27['  ]| Her silence$0$ disturbed 
318:472,28['  ]| him; and after$4$ observing her a little while$0$, he 
318:472,29['  ]| added, 
318:472,30[B  ]| "$EM#A$Emma, my love$0$, you said that$3$ this circumstance 
318:472,31[B  ]| would not now make$1$ you unhappy; but I am afraid it 
318:472,32[B  ]| gives you more pain$0$ than you expected. His situation is 
318:472,33[B  ]| an evil ~~ but you must consider it as what satisfies your 
318:472,34[B  ]| friend; and I will$1$ answer$1$ for$4$ your thinking better and 
318:472,35[B  ]| better of him as you know him more. His good sense and 
318:472,36[B  ]| good principles would delight$1$ you. ~~ As far as the man is 
318:472,37[B  ]| concerned, you could not wish$1$ your friend in$4$ better hands. 
318:472,38[B  ]| His rank$0$ in$4$ society I would alter if I could; which$6#1$ is saying 
318:473,01[B  ]| a great deal$0$ I assure you, $EM#A$Emma. ~~ You laugh$1$ at me about$4$ 
318:473,02[B  ]| $EM#W$William*Larkins; but I could quite as ill spare$1$ $EM#R$Robert*Martin." 
318,473,03[B  ]| 
318:473,04['  ]| He wanted her to$9$ look$1$ up$5$ and smile$1$; and having now 
318:473,05['  ]| brought herself not to$9$ smile$1$ too$5#1$ broadly ~~ she did ~~ cheerfully 
318:473,06['  ]| answering, 
318:473,07[A  ]| "You need$1$ not be at any pains to$9$ reconcile me to$4$ the 
318:473,08[A  ]| match$0$. I think $EM#M$Harriet is doing extremely well$5$. \Her\ 
318:473,09[A  ]| connexions may$1$ be worse than \his\. In$4$ respectability of 
318:473,10[A  ]| character, there can be no$2$ doubt$0$ that$3$ they are. I have 
318:473,11[A  ]| been silent from surprise$0$ merely, excessive surprise$0$. You 
318:473,12[A  ]| cannot imagine how suddenly it has come on$4$ me! how 
318:473,13[A  ]| peculiarly unprepared I was! ~~ for$3$ I had reason$0$ to$9$ believe 
318:473,14[A  ]| her very lately more determined against him, much more, 
318:473,15[A  ]| than she was before$5$." 
318:473,16[B  ]| "You ought to$9$ know your friend best," 
318:473,16['  ]| replied 
318:473,17['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley; 
318:473,17[B  ]| "but I should say she was a good-tempered, 
318:473,18[B  ]| soft-hearted girl, not likely to$9$ be very, very determined 
318:473,19[B  ]| against any young man who$6#1$ told her he loved her." 
318:473,20['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not help$1$ laughing as she answered, 
318:473,20[A  ]| "Upon$4$ 
318:473,21[A  ]| my word, I believe you know her quite as well$5$ as I do. ~~ 
318:473,22[A  ]| But, $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, are you perfectly sure that$3$ she has 
318:473,23[A  ]| absolutely and downright \accepted\ him. ~~ I could suppose 
318:473,24[A  ]| she might in$4$ time ~~ but can she already? ~~ Did not you 
318:473,25[A  ]| misunderstand him? ~~ You were both talking of other 
318:473,26[A  ]| things; of business, shows$0$ of cattle, or new drills ~~ and 
318:473,27[A  ]| might not you, in$4$ the confusion of so$5#1$ many subjects, 
318:473,28[A  ]| mistake$1$ him? ~~ It was not $EM#M$Harriet's hand$0$ that$6#1$ he was 
318:473,29[A  ]| certain of ~~ it was the dimensions of some famous ox." 
318:473,30['  ]| The contrast between the countenance and air of 
318:473,31['  ]| $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#R$Robert*Martin was, at this moment, 
318:473,32['  ]| so$5#1$ strong to$4$ $EM#A$Emma's feelings, and so$5#1$ strong was the 
318:473,33['  ]| recollection of all that$6#1$ had so$5#1$ recently passed on$4$ $EM#M$Harriet's 
318:473,34['  ]| side$0$, so$5#1$ fresh the sound$0$ of those words, spoken with such 
318:473,35['  ]| emphasis, 
318:473,35@m   | "No$7$, I hope$1$ I know better than to$9$ think of 
318:473,36@m   | $EM#R$Robert*Martin," 
318:473,36['  ]| that$3$ she was really expecting the intelligence 
318:473,37['  ]| to$9$ prove, in$4$ some measure$0$, premature. 
318:473,37@a   | It could 
318:473,38@a   | not be otherwise. 
318:474,01[B  ]| "Do you dare$1#1$ say this?" 
318:474,01['  ]| cried $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. 
318:474,01[B  ]| "Do 
318:474,02[B  ]| you dare$1#1$ to$9$ suppose me so$5#1$ great a blockhead, as not to$9$ 
318:474,03[B  ]| know what a man is talking of? ~~ What do you deserve?" 
318:474,04[A  ]| "Oh! I always deserve the best treatment, because 
318:474,05[A  ]| I never put up$5$ with any other; and, therefore, you must 
318:474,06[A  ]| give me a plain, direct$2$ answer$0$. Are you quite sure that$3$ 
318:474,07[A  ]| you understand the terms on$4$ which$6#1$ $EM#R$Mr%*Martin and 
318:474,08[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet now are?" 
318:474,09[B  ]| "I am quite sure," 
318:474,09['  ]| he replied, speaking very distinctly, 
318:474,10[B  ]| "that$3$ he told me she had accepted him; and that$3$ there 
318:474,11[B  ]| was no$2$ obscurity, nothing doubtful, in$4$ the words he used; 
318:474,12[B  ]| and I think I can give you a proof that$3$ it must be so$5#2$. 
318:474,13[B  ]| He asked my opinion as to$4$ 
318:474,13@r   | what he was now to$9$ do. He 
318:474,14@r   | knew of no*one but $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard to$4$ whom$6#1$ he could apply 
318:474,15@r   | for$4$ information of her relations or friends. Could I mention$1$ 
318:474,16@r   | any*thing more fit$2$ to$9$ be done, than to$9$ go to$4$ $EM#ZZD$Mrs%*Goddard? 
318:474,17[B  ]| I assured him that$3$ I could not. 
318:474,17@r   | Then, 
318:474,17[B  ]| he said, 
318:474,17@r   | he 
318:474,18@r   | would endeavour$1$ to$9$ see her in$4$ the course$0$ of this day." 
318:474,19[A  ]| "I am perfectly satisfied," 
318:474,19['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma, with the 
318:474,20['  ]| brightest smiles, 
318:474,20[A  ]| "and most sincerely wish$1$ them happy." 
318:474,21[B  ]| "You are materially changed since we talked on$4$ this 
318:474,22[B  ]| subject$0$ before$5$." 
318:474,23[A  ]| "I hope$1$ so$5#2$ ~~ for$3$ at that$6#2$ time I was a fool." 
318:474,24[B  ]| "And I am changed also; for$3$ I am now very willing 
318:474,25[B  ]| to$9$ grant you all $EM#M$Harriet's good qualities. I have taken 
318:474,26[B  ]| some pains for$4$ your sake, and for$4$ $EM#R$Robert*Martin's sake, 
318:474,27[B  ]| (whom$6#1$ I have always had reason$0$ to$9$ believe as much in$4$ love$0$ 
318:474,28[B  ]| with her as ever,) to$9$ get acquainted with her. I have often 
318:474,29[B  ]| talked to$4$ her a good deal$0$. You must have seen that$3$ I did. 
318:474,30[B  ]| Sometimes, indeed, I have thought$1$ you were half suspecting 
318:474,31[B  ]| me of pleading poor $EM#R$Martin's cause, which$6#1$ was 
318:474,32[B  ]| never the case: but, from all my observations, I am 
318:474,33[B  ]| convinced of her being$1$ an artless, amiable girl, with very 
318:474,34[B  ]| good notions, very seriously good principles, and placing 
318:474,35[B  ]| her happiness in$4$ the affections and utility of domestic$2$ life. 
318:474,36[B  ]| ~~ Much of this, I have no$2$ doubt$0$, she may$1$ thank you for$4$." 
318:474,37[A  ]| "Me!" 
318:474,37['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, shaking her head$0$. ~~ 
318:474,37[A  ]| "Ah! poor 
318:474,38[A  ]| $EM#M$Harriet!" 
318:475,01['  ]| She checked herself, however, and submitted quietly to$4$ 
318:475,02['  ]| a little more praise$0$ than she deserved. 
318:475,03['  ]| Their conversation was soon afterwards closed by$4$ the 
318:475,04['  ]| entrance of her father. 
318:475,04@a   | She was not sorry. She wanted 
318:475,05@a   | to$9$ be alone. 
318:475,05['  ]| Her mind$0$ was in$4$ a state$0$ of flutter and 
318:475,06['  ]| wonder$0$, which$6#1$ made it impossible for$4$ her to$9$ be collected. 
318:475,07['  ]| She was in$4$ dancing, singing, exclaiming spirits; and till 
318:475,08['  ]| she had moved about$5$, and talked to$4$ herself, and laughed 
318:475,09['  ]| and reflected, she could be fit$2$ for$4$ nothing rational. 
318:475,10['  ]| Her father's business was to$9$ announce $EM#ZI$James's being$1$ 
318:475,11['  ]| gone out$5$ to$9$ put the horses to$5$, preparatory to$4$ their now 
318:475,12['  ]| daily drive$0$ to$4$ Randall's; and she had, therefore, an 
318:475,13['  ]| immediate excuse$0$ for$4$ disappearing. 
318:475,14['  ]| The joy, the gratitude, the exquisite delight$0$ of her sensations 
318:475,15['  ]| may$1$ be imagined. The sole grievance and alloy 
318:475,16['  ]| thus removed in$4$ the prospect of $EM#M$Harriet's welfare, she was 
318:475,17['  ]| really in$4$ danger of becoming too$5#1$ happy for$4$ security. ~~ 
318:475,18@a   | What had she to$9$ wish$1$ for$4$? Nothing, but to$9$ grow more 
318:475,19@a   | worthy of him, whose$6#1$ intentions and judgment had been 
318:475,20@a   | ever so$5#1$ superior to$4$ her own$2$. Nothing, but that$3$ the lessons 
318:475,21@a   | of her past$2$ folly might teach her humility and circumspection 
318:475,22@a   | in$4$ future. 
318:475,23['  ]| Serious$2$ she was, very serious$2$ in$4$ her thankfulness, and 
318:475,24['  ]| in$4$ her resolutions; and yet there was no$2$ preventing 
318:475,25['  ]| a laugh$0$, sometimes in$4$ the very midst of them. 
318:475,25@a   | She must 
318:475,26@a   | laugh$1$ at such a close$0$! Such an end$0$ of the doleful disappointment 
318:475,27@a   | of five weeks back$5$! Such a heart ~~ such 
318:475,28@a   | a $EM#M$Harriet! 
318:475,29@a   | Now there would be pleasure in$4$ her returning. ~~ Every*thing 
318:475,30@a   | would be a pleasure. It would be a great pleasure 
318:475,31@a   | to$9$ know $EM#R$Robert*Martin. 
318:475,32['  ]| High in$4$ the rank$0$ of her most serious$2$ and heartfelt 
318:475,33['  ]| felicities, was the reflection that$3$ all necessity of concealment 
318:475,34['  ]| from $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley would soon be over. The disguise, 
318:475,35['  ]| equivocation, mystery, so$5#1$ hateful to$4$ her to$9$ practise, 
318:475,36['  ]| might soon be over. She could now look$1$ forward$5$ to$4$ giving 
318:475,37['  ]| him that$6#2$ full and perfect$2$ confidence which$6#1$ her disposition 
318:475,38['  ]| was most ready to$9$ welcome$1$ as a duty. 
318:476,01['  ]| In$4$ the gayest and happiest spirits she set$1$ forward$5$ with 
318:476,02['  ]| her father; not always listening, but always agreeing to$4$ 
318:476,03['  ]| what he said; and, whether in$4$ speech or silence$0$, conniving 
318:476,04['  ]| at the comfortable persuasion of his being$1$ obliged to$9$ go to$4$ 
318:476,05['  ]| Randall's every day, or poor $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston would be 
318:476,06['  ]| disappointed. 
318:476,07['  ]| They arrived. ~~ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston was alone in$4$ the drawing-room: ~~ 
318:476,08['  ]| but hardly had they been told of the baby, and 
318:476,09['  ]| $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse received the thanks for$4$ coming, which$6#1$ he 
318:476,10['  ]| asked for$4$, when a glimpse was caught through$4$ the blind$0$, 
318:476,11['  ]| of two figures$0$ passing near$4$ the window. 
318:476,12[O  ]| "It is $EM#E$Frank and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax," 
318:476,12['  ]| said $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston. 
318:476,13[O  ]| "I was just$5$ going to$9$ tell you of our agreeable surprise$0$ in$4$ 
318:476,14[O  ]| seeing him arrive this morning. He stays till to-morrow, 
318:476,15[O  ]| and $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax has been persuaded to$9$ spend the day 
318:476,16[O  ]| with us. ~~ They are coming in$5$, I hope$1$." 
318:476,17['  ]| In$4$ half a minute$0$ they were in$4$ the room. $EM#A$Emma was 
318:476,18['  ]| extremely glad to$9$ see him ~~ but there was a degree of confusion ~~ 
318:476,19['  ]| a number of embarrassing recollections on$4$ each 
318:476,20['  ]| side$0$. They met readily and smiling, but with a consciousness 
318:476,21['  ]| which$6#1$ at first allowed little to$9$ be said; and having 
318:476,22['  ]| all sat down$5$ again, there was for$4$ some time such a blank$0$ 
318:476,23['  ]| in$4$ the circle, that$3$ $EM#A$Emma began to$9$ doubt$1$ whether the wish$0$ 
318:476,24['  ]| now indulged, which$6#1$ she had long felt, of seeing $EM#E$Frank*Churchill 
318:476,25['  ]| once more, and of seeing him with $EM#J$Jane, would 
318:476,26['  ]| yield its proportion of pleasure. When $EM#N$Mr%*Weston joined 
318:476,27['  ]| the party, however, and when the baby was fetched, there 
318:476,28['  ]| was no$2$ longer a want$0$ of subject$0$ or animation ~~ or of 
318:476,29['  ]| courage and opportunity for$4$ $EM#E$Frank*Churchill to$9$ draw near$4$ 
318:476,30['  ]| her and say, 
318:476,31[E  ]| "I have to$9$ thank you, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse, for$4$ a very kind$2$ 
318:476,32[E  ]| forgiving message in$4$ one of $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's letters. I hope$1$ 
318:476,33[E  ]| time has not made you less willing to$9$ pardon$1$. I hope$1$ you 
318:476,34[E  ]| do not retract what you then said." 
318:476,35[A  ]| "No$7$, indeed," 
318:476,35['  ]| cried $EM#A$Emma, most happy to$9$ begin, 
318:476,35[A  ]| "not 
318:476,36[A  ]| in$4$ the least. I am particularly glad to$9$ see and shake$1$ 
318:476,37[A  ]| hands with you ~~ and to$9$ give you joy in$4$ person." 
318:476,38['  ]| He thanked her with all his heart, and continued some 
318:477,01['  ]| time to$9$ speak with serious$2$ feeling of his gratitude and 
318:477,02['  ]| happiness. 
318:477,03[E  ]| "Is not she looking well$5$?" 
318:477,03['  ]| said he, turning his eyes 
318:477,04['  ]| towards $EM#J$Jane. 
318:477,04[E  ]| "Better than she ever used to$9$ do? ~~ You 
318:477,05[E  ]| see how my father and $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston doat upon$4$ her." 
318:477,06['  ]| But his spirits were soon rising again, and with laughing 
318:477,07['  ]| eyes, after$4$ mentioning the expected return$0$ of the $EM#ZC2$Campbells, 
318:477,08['  ]| he named the name$0$ of $EM#ZF$Dixon, ~~ $EM#A$Emma blushed, and 
318:477,09['  ]| forbad its being$1$ pronounced in$4$ her hearing. 
318:477,10[A  ]| "I can never think of it," 
318:477,10['  ]| she cried, 
318:477,10[A  ]| "without extreme$2$ 
318:477,11[A  ]| shame$0$." 
318:477,12[E  ]| "The shame$0$," 
318:477,12['  ]| he answered, 
318:477,12[E  ]| "is all mine$6$, or ought to$9$ be. 
318:477,13[E  ]| But is it possible that$3$ you had no$2$ suspicion? ~~ I mean$1$ of 
318:477,14[E  ]| late. Early, I know you had none." 
318:477,15[A  ]| "I never had the smallest, I assure you." 
318:477,16[E  ]| "That$6#2$ appears quite wonderful. I was once very near$4$ 
318:477,17[E  ]| ~~ and I wish$1$ I had ~~ it would have been better. But 
318:477,18[E  ]| though I was always doing wrong things, they were very 
318:477,19[E  ]| \bad\ wrong things, and such as did me no$2$ service. ~~ It 
318:477,20[E  ]| would have been a much better transgression had I broken 
318:477,21[E  ]| the bond of secrecy and told you every*thing." 
318:477,22[A  ]| "It is not now worth a regret$0$," 
318:477,22['  ]| said $EM#A$Emma. 
318:477,23[E  ]| "I have some hope$0$," 
318:477,23['  ]| resumed he, 
318:477,23[E  ]| "of my uncle's being$1$ 
318:477,24[E  ]| persuaded to$9$ pay$1$ a visit$0$ at Randall's; he wants$1$ to$9$ be 
318:477,25[E  ]| introduced to$4$ her. When the $EM#ZC2$Campbells are returned, we 
318:477,26[E  ]| shall meet$1$ them in$4$ London, and continue there, I trust$1$, 
318:477,27[E  ]| till we may$1$ carry her northward. ~~ But now, I am at such 
318:477,28[E  ]| a distance$0$ from her ~~ is not it hard, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse? ~~ 
318:477,29[E  ]| Till this morning, we have not once met since the day of 
318:477,30[E  ]| reconciliation. Do not you pity$1$ me?" 
318:477,31['  ]| $EM#A$Emma spoke her pity$0$ so$5#1$ very kindly, that$3$, with a sudden$2$ 
318:477,32['  ]| accession of gay thought$0$, he cried, 
318:477,33[E  ]| "Ah! by*the*bye," ~~ 
318:477,33['  ]| then sinking his voice, and looking 
318:477,34['  ]| demure for$4$ the moment ~~ 
318:477,34[E  ]| "I hope$1$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley is well$5$?" 
318:477,35['  ]| He paused. ~~ She coloured and laughed. ~~ 
318:477,35[E  ]| "I know you 
318:477,36[E  ]| saw my letter, and think you may$1$ remember my wish$0$ in$4$ 
318:477,37[E  ]| your favour$0$. Let me return$1$ your congratulations. ~~ 
318:477,38[E  ]| I assure you that$3$ I have heard the news with the warmest 
318:478,01[E  ]| interest$0$ and satisfaction. ~~ He is a man whom$6#1$ I cannot 
318:478,02[E  ]| presume to$9$ praise$1$." 
318:478,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma was delighted, and only wanted him to$9$ go on$5$ in$4$ 
318:478,04['  ]| the same style; but his mind$0$ was the next moment in$4$ his 
318:478,05['  ]| own$2$ concerns$0$ and with his own$2$ $EM#J$Jane, and his next words 
318:478,06['  ]| were, 
318:478,07[E  ]| "Did you ever see such a skin? ~~ such smoothness! 
318:478,08[E  ]| such delicacy! ~~ and yet without being$1$ actually fair. ~~ 
318:478,09[E  ]| One cannot call$1$ her fair. It is a most uncommon complexion, 
318:478,10[E  ]| with her dark$2$ eye-lashes and hair ~~ a most distinguishing 
318:478,11[E  ]| complexion! ~~ So$5#1$ peculiarly the lady in$4$ it. ~~ 
318:478,12[E  ]| Just$5$ colour enough for$4$ beauty." 
318:478,13[A  ]| "I have always admired her complexion," 
318:478,13['  ]| replied 
318:478,14['  ]| $EM#A$Emma, archly; 
318:478,14[A  ]| "but do not I remember the time when 
318:478,15[A  ]| you found fault with her for$4$ being$1$ so$5#1$ pale? ~~ When we 
318:478,16[A  ]| first began to$9$ talk$1$ of her. ~~ Have you quite forgotten?" 
318:478,17[E  ]| "Oh! no$7$ ~~ what an impudent dog I was! ~~ How could 
318:478,18[E  ]| I dare$1#1$ ~~" 
318:478,19['  ]| But he laughed so$5#1$ heartily at the recollection, that$3$ 
318:478,20['  ]| $EM#A$Emma could not help$1$ saying, 
318:478,21[A  ]| "I do suspect that$3$ in$4$ the midst of your perplexities at 
318:478,22[A  ]| that$6#2$ time, you had very great amusement in$4$ tricking us 
318:478,23[A  ]| all. ~~ I am sure you had. ~~ I am sure it was a consolation 
318:478,24[A  ]| to$4$ you." 
318:478,25[E  ]| "Oh! no$7$, no$7$, no$7$ ~~ how can you suspect me of such 
318:478,26[E  ]| a thing? ~~ I was the most miserable wretch!" 
318:478,27[A  ]| "Not quite so$5#1$ miserable as to$9$ be insensible to$4$ mirth. 
318:478,28[A  ]| I am sure it was a source of high entertainment to$4$ you, to$9$ 
318:478,29[A  ]| feel that$3$ you were taking us all in$5$. ~~ Perhaps I am the 
318:478,30[A  ]| readier to$9$ suspect, because, to$9$ tell you the truth, I think 
318:478,31[A  ]| it might have been some amusement to$4$ myself in$4$ the 
318:478,32[A  ]| same situation. I think there is a little likeness between 
318:478,33[A  ]| us." 
318:478,34['  ]| He bowed. 
318:478,35[A  ]| "If not in$4$ our dispositions," 
318:478,35['  ]| she presently added, with 
318:478,36['  ]| a look$0$ of true sensibility, 
318:478,36[A  ]| "there is a likeness in$4$ our 
318:478,37[A  ]| destiny; the destiny which$6#1$ bids fair to$9$ connect us with 
318:478,38[A  ]| two characters so$5#1$ much superior to$4$ our own$2$." 
318:479,01[E  ]| "True, true," 
318:479,01['  ]| he answered, warmly. 
318:479,01[E  ]| "No$7$, not true on$4$ 
318:479,02[E  ]| your side$0$. You can have no$2$ superior, but most true on$4$ 
318:479,03[E  ]| mine$6$. ~~ She is a complete$2$ angel. Look$1$ at her. Is not she 
318:479,04[E  ]| an angel in$4$ every gesture? Observe the turn$0$ of her 
318:479,05[E  ]| throat. Observe her eyes, as she is looking up$5$ at my 
318:479,06[E  ]| father. ~~ You will$1$ be glad to$9$ hear 
318:479,06['  ]| (inclining his head$0$, and 
318:479,07['  ]| whispering seriously) 
318:479,07[E  ]| that$3$ my uncle means$1$ to$9$ give her all 
318:479,08[E  ]| my aunt's jewels. They are to$9$ be new set$1$. I am resolved 
318:479,09[E  ]| to$9$ have some in$4$ an ornament for$4$ the head$0$. Will$1$ not it be 
318:479,10[E  ]| beautiful in$4$ her dark$2$ hair?" 
318:479,11[A  ]| "Very beautiful, indeed," 
318:479,11['  ]| replied $EM#A$Emma: and she 
318:479,12['  ]| spoke so$5#1$ kindly, that$3$ he gratefully burst$1$ out$5$, 
318:479,13[E  ]| "How delighted I am to$9$ see you again! and to$9$ see you 
318:479,14[E  ]| in$4$ such excellent looks$0$! ~~ I would not have missed this 
318:479,15[E  ]| meeting for$4$ the world. I should certainly have called at 
318:479,16[E  ]| Hartfield, had you failed to$9$ come." 
318:479,17['  ]| The others had been talking of the child, $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston 
318:479,18['  ]| giving an account$0$ of a little alarm$0$ she had been under, the 
318:479,19['  ]| evening before$5$, from the infant's appearing not quite well$5$. 
318:479,20@o   | She believed she had been foolish, but it had alarmed her, 
318:479,21@o   | and she had been within half a minute$0$ of sending for$4$ 
318:479,22@o   | $EM#W$Mr%*Perry. Perhaps she ought to$9$ be ashamed, but 
318:479,23@o   | $EM#N$Mr%*Weston had been almost as uneasy as herself. ~~ In$4$ 
318:479,24@o   | ten minutes, however, the child had been perfectly well$5$ 
318:479,25@o   | again. 
318:479,25['  ]| This was her history; and particularly interesting 
318:479,26['  ]| it was to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse, who$6#1$ commended her very much 
318:479,27['  ]| for$4$ thinking of sending for$4$ $EM#W$Perry, and only regretted that$3$ 
318:479,28['  ]| she had not done it. 
318:479,28[P  ]| "She should always send for$4$ $EM#W$Perry, if 
318:479,29[P  ]| the child appeared in$4$ the slightest degree disordered, were 
318:479,30[P  ]| it only for$4$ a moment. She could not be too$5#1$ soon alarmed, 
318:479,31[P  ]| nor send for$4$ $EM#W$Perry too$5#1$ often. It was a pity$0$, perhaps, that$3$ 
318:479,32[P  ]| he had not come last$2$ night; for$3$, though the child seemed 
318:479,33[P  ]| well$5$ now, very well$5$ considering, it would probably have 
318:479,34[P  ]| been better if $EM#W$Perry had seen it." 
318:479,35['  ]| $EM#E$Frank*Churchill caught the name$0$. 
318:479,36[E  ]| "$EM#W$Perry!" 
318:479,36['  ]| said he to$4$ $EM#A$Emma, and trying, as he spoke, 
318:479,37['  ]| to$9$ catch$1$ $EM#J$Miss*Fairfax's eye. 
318:479,37[E  ]| "My friend $EM#W$Mr%*Perry! 
318:479,38[E  ]| What are they saying about$4$ $EM#W$Mr%*Perry? ~~ Has he been 
318:480,01[E  ]| here this morning? ~~ And how does he travel now? ~~ 
318:480,02[E  ]| Has he set$1$ up$5$ his carriage?" 
318:480,03['  ]| $EM#A$Emma soon recollected, and understood him; and 
318:480,04['  ]| while$3$ she joined in$4$ the laugh$0$, it was evident from $EM#J$Jane's 
318:480,05['  ]| countenance that$3$ she too$5#2$ was really hearing him, though 
318:480,06['  ]| trying to$9$ seem deaf. 
318:480,07[E  ]| "Such an extraordinary dream$0$ of mine$6$!" 
318:480,07['  ]| he cried. 
318:480,08[E  ]| "I can never think of it without laughing. ~~ She hears us, 
318:480,09[E  ]| she hears us, $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. I see it in$4$ her cheek, her 
318:480,10[E  ]| smile$0$, her vain attempt$0$ to$9$ frown$1$. Look$1$ at her. Do not 
318:480,11[E  ]| you see that$3$, at this instant$0$, the very passage of her own$2$ 
318:480,12[E  ]| letter, which$6#1$ sent me the report$0$, is passing under her eye 
318:480,13[E  ]| ~~ that$3$ the whole$2$ blunder$0$ is spread before$4$ her ~~ that$3$ she 
318:480,14[E  ]| can attend to$4$ nothing else, though pretending to$9$ listen 
318:480,15[E  ]| to$4$ the others?" 
318:480,16['  ]| $EM#J$Jane was forced to$9$ smile$1$ completely, for$4$ a moment; 
318:480,17['  ]| and the smile$0$ partly remained as she turned towards him, 
318:480,18['  ]| and said in$4$ a conscious, low, yet steady voice, 
318:480,19[J  ]| "How you can bear$1$ such recollections, is astonishing to$4$ 
318:480,20[J  ]| me! ~~ They \will$1$\ sometimes obtrude ~~ but how you can 
318:480,21[J  ]| \court$1$\ them!" 
318:480,22['  ]| He had a great deal$0$ to$9$ say in$4$ return$0$, and very entertainingly; 
318:480,23['  ]| but $EM#A$Emma's feelings were chiefly with $EM#J$Jane, 
318:480,24['  ]| in$4$ the argument; and on$4$ leaving Randall's, and falling 
318:480,25['  ]| naturally into a comparison of the two men, she felt, that$3$ 
318:480,26@a   | pleased as she had been to$9$ see $EM#E$Frank*Churchill, and really 
318:480,27@a   | regarding him as she did with friendship, she had never 
318:480,28@a   | been more sensible$2#1$ of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley's high superiority 
318:480,29@a   | of character. 
318:480,29['  ]| The happiness of this most happy day, 
318:480,30['  ]| received its completion, in$4$ the animated contemplation 
318:480,31['  ]| of his worth which$6#1$ this comparison produced. 
319:481,01['  ]| If $EM#A$Emma had still$5$, at intervals, an anxious feeling for$4$ 
319:481,02['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, a momentary doubt$0$ of its being$1$ possible for$4$ her 
319:481,03['  ]| to$9$ be really cured of her attachment to$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, and 
319:481,04['  ]| really able to$9$ accept another man from unbiassed inclination, 
319:481,05['  ]| it was not long that$3$ she had to$9$ suffer from the recurrence 
319:481,06['  ]| of any such uncertainty. A very few days 
319:481,07['  ]| brought the party from London, and she had no$2$ sooner 
319:481,08['  ]| an opportunity of being$1$ one hour alone with $EM#M$Harriet, than 
319:481,09['  ]| she became perfectly satisfied ~~ unaccountable as it was! ~~ 
319:481,10['  ]| that$3$ $EM#R$Robert*Martin had thoroughly supplanted $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley, 
319:481,11['  ]| and was now forming all her views of happiness. 
319:481,12['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet was a little distressed ~~ did look$1$ a little foolish 
319:481,13['  ]| at first; but having once owned that$3$ she had been presumptuous 
319:481,14['  ]| and silly, and self-deceived, before$5$, her pain$0$ 
319:481,15['  ]| and confusion seemed to$9$ die$1$ away with the words, and 
319:481,16['  ]| leave$1$ her without a care$0$ for$4$ the past$0$, and with the fullest 
319:481,17['  ]| exultation in$4$ the present$0#1$ and future; for$3$, as to$4$ her friend's 
319:481,18['  ]| approbation, $EM#A$Emma had instantly removed every fear$0$ of 
319:481,19['  ]| that$6#2$ nature, by$4$ meeting her with the most unqualified 
319:481,20['  ]| congratulations. ~~ $EM#M$Harriet was most happy to$9$ give every 
319:481,21['  ]| particular of the evening at $EM#Z1$Astley's, and the dinner the 
319:481,22['  ]| next day; she could dwell on$4$ it all with the utmost 
319:481,23['  ]| delight$0$. But what did such particulars explain? ~~ The 
319:481,24['  ]| fact was, as $EM#A$Emma could now acknowledge, that$3$ $EM#M$Harriet 
319:481,25['  ]| had always liked $EM#R$Robert*Martin; and that$3$ his continuing 
319:481,26['  ]| to$9$ love$1$ her had been irresistible. ~~ Beyond$4$ this, it must 
319:481,27['  ]| ever be unintelligible to$4$ $EM#A$Emma. 
319:481,28['  ]| The event, however, was most joyful, and every day was 
319:481,29['  ]| giving her fresh reason$0$ for$4$ thinking so$5#2$. ~~ $EM#M$Harriet's parentage 
319:481,30['  ]| became known. She proved to$9$ be the daughter of 
319:481,31['  ]| a tradesman, rich enough to$9$ afford her the comfortable 
319:481,32['  ]| maintenance which$6#1$ had ever been her's, and decent 
319:482,01['  ]| enough to$9$ have always wished for$4$ concealment. ~~Such 
319:482,02['  ]| was the blood of gentility which$6#1$ $EM#A$Emma had formerly 
319:482,03['  ]| been so$5#1$ ready to$9$ vouch for$4$! ~~ 
319:482,03@a   | It was likely to$9$ be as untainted, 
319:482,04@a   | perhaps, as the blood of many a gentleman: but 
319:482,05@a   | what a connexion had she been preparing for$4$ $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley 
319:482,06@a   | ~~ or for$4$ the $EM#W$Churchills ~~ or even$5$ for$4$ $EM#H$Mr%*Elton! ~~ The 
319:482,07@a   | stain of illegitimacy, unbleached by$4$ nobility or wealth, 
319:482,08@a   | would have been a stain indeed. 
319:482,09['  ]| No$2$ objection was raised on$4$ the father's side$0$; the young 
319:482,10['  ]| man was treated liberally; it was all as it should be: and 
319:482,11['  ]| as $EM#A$Emma became acquainted with $EM#R$Robert*Martin, who$6#1$ 
319:482,12['  ]| was now introduced at Hartfield, she fully acknowledged 
319:482,13['  ]| in$4$ him all the appearance of sense and worth which$6#1$ could 
319:482,14['  ]| bid fairest for$4$ her little friend. 
319:482,14@a   | She had no$2$ doubt$0$ of 
319:482,15@a   | $EM#M$Harriet's happiness with any good*tempered man; but 
319:482,16@a   | with him, and in$4$ the home he offered, there would be the 
319:482,17@a   | hope$0$ of more, of security, stability, and improvement. 
319:482,18@a   | She would be placed in$4$ the midst of those who$6#1$ loved her, 
319:482,19@a   | and who$6#1$ had better sense than herself; retired enough 
319:482,20@a   | for$4$ safety, and occupied enough for$4$ cheerfulness. She 
319:482,21@a   | would be never led into temptation, nor left for$4$ it to$9$ find 
319:482,22@a   | her out$5$. She would be respectable and happy; and 
319:482,23@a   | $EM#A$Emma admitted her to$9$ be the luckiest creature in$4$ the 
319:482,24@a   | world, to$9$ have created so$5#1$ steady and persevering an 
319:482,25@a   | affection in$4$ such a man; ~~ or, if not quite the luckiest, to$9$ 
319:482,26@a   | yield only to$4$ herself. 
319:482,27['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet, necessarily drawn away by$4$ her engagements 
319:482,28['  ]| with the $EM#R1$Martins, was less and less at Hartfield; which$6#1$ 
319:482,29['  ]| was not to$9$ be regretted. ~~ The intimacy between her and 
319:482,30['  ]| $EM#A$Emma must sink; their friendship must change$1$ into 
319:482,31['  ]| a calmer sort of goodwill; and, fortunately, what ought 
319:482,32['  ]| to$9$ be, and must be, seemed already beginning, and in$4$ the 
319:482,33['  ]| most gradual, natural$2$ manner. 
319:482,34['  ]| Before$4$ the end$0$ of September, $EM#A$Emma attended $EM#M$Harriet 
319:482,35['  ]| to$4$ church, and saw her hand$0$ bestowed on$4$ $EM#R$Robert*Martin 
319:482,36['  ]| with so$5#1$ complete$2$ a satisfaction, as no$2$ remembrances, even$5$ 
319:482,37['  ]| connected with $EM#H$Mr%*Elton as he stood before$4$ them, could 
319:482,38['  ]| impair. ~~ Perhaps, indeed, at that$6#2$ time she scarcely saw 
319:483,01['  ]| $EM#H$Mr%*Elton, but as the clergyman whose$6#1$ blessing at the 
319:483,02['  ]| altar might next fall$1$ on$4$ herself. ~~ $EM#R$Robert*Martin and 
319:483,03['  ]| $EM#M$Harriet*Smith, the latest couple engaged of the three, 
319:483,04['  ]| were the first to$9$ be married. 
319:483,05['  ]| $EM#J$Jane*Fairfax had already quitted Highbury, and was 
319:483,06['  ]| restored to$4$ the comforts of her beloved home with the 
319:483,07['  ]| $EM#ZC2$Campbells. ~~ The $EM#W$Mr%*Churchills were also in$4$ town; and 
319:483,08['  ]| they were only waiting for$4$ November. 
319:483,09['  ]| The intermediate month was the one fixed on$5$, as far as 
319:483,10['  ]| they dared, by$4$ $EM#A$Emma and $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley. ~~ They had 
319:483,11['  ]| determined that$3$ their marriage ought to$9$ be concluded 
319:483,12['  ]| while$3$ $EM#K$John and $EM#L$Isabella were still$5$ at Hartfield, to$9$ allow 
319:483,13['  ]| them the fortnight's absence in$4$ a tour to$4$ the sea-side, 
319:483,14['  ]| which$6#1$ was the plan. ~~ $EM#K$John and $EM#L$Isabella, and every other 
319:483,15['  ]| friend, were agreed in$4$ approving it. But $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse 
319:483,16['  ]| ~~ how was $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse to$9$ be induced to$9$ consent$1$? ~~ 
319:483,17['  ]| he, who$6#1$ had never yet alluded to$4$ their marriage but as 
319:483,18['  ]| a distant event. 
319:483,19['  ]| When first sounded on$4$ the subject$0$, he was so$5#1$ miserable, 
319:483,20['  ]| that$3$ they were almost hopeless. ~~ A second$2$ allusion, indeed, 
319:483,21['  ]| gave less pain$0$. ~~ He began to$9$ think it was to$9$ be, and 
319:483,22['  ]| that$3$ he could not prevent it ~~ a very promising step$0$ of 
319:483,23['  ]| the mind$0$ on$4$ its way to$4$ resignation. Still$5$, however, he 
319:483,24['  ]| was not happy. Nay, he appeared so$5#1$ much otherwise, 
319:483,25['  ]| that$3$ his daughter's courage failed. She could not bear$1$ to$9$ 
319:483,26['  ]| see him suffering, to$9$ know him fancying himself neglected; 
319:483,27['  ]| and though her understanding almost acquiesced in$4$ the 
319:483,28['  ]| assurance of both the $EM#B1$Mr%*Knightleys, that$3$ when once the 
319:483,29['  ]| event was over, his distress$0$ would be soon over too$5#2$, she 
319:483,30['  ]| hesitated ~~ she could not proceed. 
319:483,31['  ]| In$4$ this state$0$ of suspense they were befriended, not by$4$ 
319:483,32['  ]| any sudden$2$ illumination of $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's mind$0$, or 
319:483,33['  ]| any wonderful change$0$ of his nervous system, but by$4$ the 
319:483,34['  ]| operation of the same system in$4$ another way. ~~ $EM#O$Mrs%*Weston's 
319:483,35['  ]| poultry-house was robbed one night of all her 
319:483,36['  ]| turkies ~~ evidently by$4$ the ingenuity of man. Other 
319:483,37['  ]| poultry-yards in$4$ the neighbourhood also suffered. ~~ Pilfering 
319:483,38['  ]| was \housebreaking\ to$4$ $EM#P$Mr%*Woodhouse's fears. ~~ He was 
319:484,01['  ]| very uneasy; and but for$4$ the sense of his son-in-law's 
319:484,02['  ]| protection, would have been under wretched alarm$0$ every 
319:484,03['  ]| night of his life. The strength, resolution, and presence of 
319:484,04['  ]| mind$0$ of the $EM#B1$Mr%*Knightleys, commanded his fullest dependance. 
319:484,05['  ]| While$3$ either of them protected him and his, 
319:484,06['  ]| Hartfield was safe. ~~ But $EM#K$Mr%*John*Knightley must be in$4$ 
319:484,07['  ]| London again by$4$ the end$0$ of the first week in$4$ November. 
319:484,08['  ]| The result$0$ of this distress$0$ was, that$3$, with a much more 
319:484,09['  ]| voluntary, cheerful consent$0$ than his daughter had ever 
319:484,10['  ]| presumed to$9$ hope$1$ for$4$ at the moment, she was able to$9$ fix 
319:484,11['  ]| her wedding-day ~~ and $EM#H$Mr%*Elton was called on$5$, within 
319:484,12['  ]| a month from the marriage of $EM#R$Mr% and $EM#M$Mrs%*Robert*Martin, 
319:484,13['  ]| to$9$ join the hands of $EM#B$Mr%*Knightley and $EM#A$Miss*Woodhouse. 
319:484,14['  ]| The wedding was very much like$4$ other weddings, where 
319:484,15['  ]| the parties have no$2$ taste for$4$ finery or parade$0$; and 
319:484,16['  ]| $EM#I$Mrs%*Elton, from the particulars detailed by$4$ her husband, 
319:484,17['  ]| thought$1$ it all extremely shabby, and very inferior to$4$ her 
319:484,18['  ]| own$2$. ~~ 
319:484,18[I  ]| "Very little white satin, very few lace$0$ veils; 
319:484,19[I  ]| a most pitiful business! ~~ $EM#V$Selina would stare when she 
319:484,20[I  ]| heard of it." 
319:484,20['  ]| ~~ But, in$4$ spite$8$ of these deficiencies, the 
319:484,21['  ]| wishes$0$, the hopes$0$, the confidence, the predictions of the 
319:484,22['  ]| small band of true friends who$6#1$ witnessed the ceremony, 
319:484,23['  ]| were fully answered in$4$ the perfect$2$ happiness of the union.
