Elinor

DID

think

the

question

a

very

odd

one

,

and

her

countenance

expressed

it

,

as

she

answered

that

she

had

never

seen

Mrs

.

Ferrars

.

"

Indeed

!

"

replied

Lucy

;

"

I

wonder

at

that

,

for

I

thought

you

must

have

seen

her

at

Norland

sometimes

.

Then

,

perhaps

,

you

cannot

tell

me

what

sort

of

a

woman

she

is

?

"

"

No

,

"

returned

Elinor

,

cautious

of

giving

her

real

opinion

of

Edward

’

s

mother

,

and

not

very

desirous

of

satisfying

what

seemed

impertinent

curiosity

—

"

I

know

nothing

of

her

.

"

"

I

am

sure

you

think

me

very

strange

,

for

enquiring

about

her

in

such

a

way

,

"

said

Lucy

,

eyeing

Elinor

attentively

as

she

spoke

;

"

but

perhaps

there

may

be

reasons

—

I

wish

I

might

venture

;

but

however

I

hope

you

will

do

me

the

justice

of

believing

that

I

do

not

mean

to

be

impertinent

.

"

Elinor

made

her

a

civil

reply

,

and

they

walked

on

for

a

few

minutes

in

silence

.

It

was

broken

by

Lucy

,

who

renewed

the

subject

again

by

saying

,

with

some

hesitation

,

"

I

cannot

bear

to

have

you

think

me

impertinently

curious

.

I

am

sure

I

would

rather

do

any

thing

in

the

world

than

be

thought

so

by

a

person

whose

good

opinion

is

so

well

worth

having

as

yours

.

And

I

am

sure

I

should

not

have

the

smallest

fear

of

trusting

YOU

;

indeed

,

I

should

be

very

glad

of

your

advice

how

to

manage

in

such

an

uncomfortable

situation

as

I

am

;

but

,

however

,

there

is

no

occasion

to

trouble

YOU

.

I

am

sorry

you

do

not

happen

to

know

Mrs

.

Ferrars

.

"

"

I

am

sorry

I

do

NOT

,

"

said

Elinor

,

in

great

astonishment

,

"

if

it

could

be

of

any

use

to

YOU

to

know

my

opinion

of

her

.

But

really

I

never

understood

that

you

were

at

all

connected

with

that

family

,

and

therefore

I

am

a

little

surprised

,

I

confess

,

at

so

serious

an

inquiry

into

her

character

.

"

"

I

dare

say

you

are

,

and

I

am

sure

I

do

not

at

all

wonder

at

it

.

But

if

I

dared

tell

you

all

,

you

would

not

be

so

much

surprised

.

Mrs

.

Ferrars

is

certainly

nothing

to

me

at

present

—

but

the

time

MAY

come

—

how

soon

it

will

come

must

depend

upon

herself

—

when

we

may

be

very

intimately

connected

.

"

She

looked

down

as

she

said

this

,

amiably

bashful

,

with

only

one

side

glance

at

her

companion

to

observe

its

effect

on

her

.
