They
danced
again
;
and
,
when
the
assembly
closed
,
parted
,
on
the
lady
’
s
side
at
least
,
with
a
strong
inclination
for
continuing
the
acquaintance
.
Whether
she
thought
of
him
so
much
,
while
she
drank
her
warm
wine
and
water
,
and
prepared
herself
for
bed
,
as
to
dream
of
him
when
there
,
cannot
be
ascertained
;
but
I
hope
it
was
no
more
than
in
a
slight
slumber
,
or
a
morning
doze
at
most
;
for
if
it
be
true
,
as
a
celebrated
writer
has
maintained
,
that
no
young
lady
can
be
justified
in
falling
in
love
before
the
gentleman
’
s
love
is
declared
,
*
it
must
be
very
improper
that
a
young
lady
should
dream
of
a
gentleman
before
the
gentleman
is
first
known
to
have
dreamt
of
her
.
How
proper
Mr
.
Tilney
might
be
as
a
dreamer
or
a
lover
had
not
yet
perhaps
entered
Mr
Allen
’
s
head
,
but
that
he
was
not
objectionable
as
a
common
acquaintance
for
his
young
charge
he
was
on
inquiry
satisfied
;
for
he
had
early
in
the
evening
taken
pains
to
know
who
her
partner
was
,
and
had
been
assured
of
Mr
.
Tilney
’
s
being
a
clergyman
,
and
of
a
very
respectable
family
in
Gloucestershire
.
With
more
than
usual
eagerness
did
Catherine
hasten
to
the
pump
-
room
the
next
day
,
secure
within
herself
of
seeing
Mr
.
Tilney
there
before
the
morning
were
over
,
and
ready
to
meet
him
with
a
smile
;
but
no
smile
was
demanded
—
Mr
.
Tilney
did
not
appear
.
Every
creature
in
Bath
,
except
himself
,
was
to
be
seen
in
the
room
at
different
periods
of
the
fashionable
hours
;
crowds
of
people
were
every
moment
passing
in
and
out
,
up
the
steps
and
down
;
people
whom
nobody
cared
about
,
and
nobody
wanted
to
see
;
and
he
only
was
absent
.
“
What
a
delightful
place
Bath
is
,
”
said
Mrs
.
Allen
as
they
sat
down
near
the
great
clock
,
after
parading
the
room
till
they
were
tired
;
“
and
how
pleasant
it
would
be
if
we
had
any
acquaintance
here
.
”
This
sentiment
had
been
uttered
so
often
in
vain
that
Mrs
.
Allen
had
no
particular
reason
to
hope
it
would
be
followed
with
more
advantage
now
;
but
we
are
told
to
“
despair
of
nothing
we
would
attain
,
”
as
“
unwearied
diligence
our
point
would
gain
”
;
and
the
unwearied
diligence
with
which
she
had
every
day
wished
for
the
same
thing
was
at
length
to
have
its
just
reward
,
for
hardly
had
she
been
seated
ten
minutes
before
a
lady
of
about
her
own
age
,
who
was
sitting
by
her
,
and
had
been
looking
at
her
attentively
for
several
minutes
,
addressed
her
with
great
complaisance
in
these
words
:
“
I
think
,
madam
,
I
cannot
be
mistaken
;
it
is
a
long
time
since
I
had
the
pleasure
of
seeing
you
,
but
is
not
your
name
Allen
?
”
This
question
answered
,
as
it
readily
was
,
the
stranger
pronounced
hers
to
be
Thorpe
;
and
Mrs
.
Allen
immediately
recognized
the
features
of
a
former
schoolfellow
and
intimate
,
whom
she
had
seen
only
once
since
their
respective
marriages
,
and
that
many
years
ago
.
Their
joy
on
this
meeting
was
very
great
,
as
well
it
might
,
since
they
had
been
contented
to
know
nothing
of
each
other
for
the
last
fifteen
years
.
Compliments
on
good
looks
now
passed
;
and
,
after
observing
how
time
had
slipped
away
since
they
were
last
together
,
how
little
they
had
thought
of
meeting
in
Bath
,
and
what
a
pleasure
it
was
to
see
an
old
friend
,
they
proceeded
to
make
inquiries
and
give
intelligence
as
to
their
families
,
sisters
,
and
cousins
,
talking
both
together
,
far
more
ready
to
give
than
to
receive
information
,
and
each
hearing
very
little
of
what
the
other
said
.
Mrs
.
Thorpe
,
however
,
had
one
great
advantage
as
a
talker
,
over
Mrs
.
Allen
,
in
a
family
of
children
;
and
when
she
expatiated
on
the
talents
of
her
sons
,
and
the
beauty
of
her
daughters
,
when
she
related
their
different
situations
and
views
—
that
John
was
at
Oxford
,
Edward
at
Merchant
Taylors
’
,
and
William
at
sea
—
and
all
of
them
more
beloved
and
respected
in
their
different
station
than
any
other
three
beings
ever
were
,
Mrs
.
Allen
had
no
similar
information
to
give
,
no
similar
triumphs
to
press
on
the
unwilling
and
unbelieving
ear
of
her
friend
,
and
was
forced
to
sit
and
appear
to
listen
to
all
these
maternal
effusions
,
consoling
herself
,
however
,
with
the
discovery
,
which
her
keen
eye
soon
made
,
that
the
lace
on
Mrs
.
Thorpe
’
s
pelisse
was
not
half
so
handsome
as
that
on
her
own
.
“
Here
come
my
dear
girls
,
”
cried
Mrs
.
Thorpe
,
pointing
at
three
smart
-
looking
females
who
,
arm
in
arm
,
were
then
moving
towards
her
.
“
My
dear
Mrs
.
Allen
,
I
long
to
introduce
them
;
they
will
be
so
delighted
to
see
you
:
the
tallest
is
Isabella
,
my
eldest
;
is
not
she
a
fine
young
woman
?
The
others
are
very
much
admired
too
,
but
I
believe
Isabella
is
the
handsomest
.
”
The
Miss
Thorpes
were
introduced
;
and
Miss
Morland
,
who
had
been
for
a
short
time
forgotten
,
was
introduced
likewise
.
The
name
seemed
to
strike
them
all
;
and
,
after
speaking
to
her
with
great
civility
,
the
eldest
young
lady
observed
aloud
to
the
rest
,
“
How
excessively
like
her
brother
Miss
Morland
is
!
”
“
The
very
picture
of
him
indeed
!
”
cried
the
mother
—
and
“
I
should
have
known
her
anywhere
for
his
sister
!
”
was
repeated
by
them
all
,
two
or
three
times
over
.
For
a
moment
Catherine
was
surprised
;
but
Mrs
.
Thorpe
and
her
daughters
had
scarcely
begun
the
history
of
their
acquaintance
with
Mr
.
James
Morland
,
before
she
remembered
that
her
eldest
brother
had
lately
formed
an
intimacy
with
a
young
man
of
his
own
college
,
of
the
name
of
Thorpe
;
and
that
he
had
spent
the
last
week
of
the
Christmas
vacation
with
his
family
,
near
London
.
The
whole
being
explained
,
many
obliging
things
were
said
by
the
Miss
Thorpes
of
their
wish
of
being
better
acquainted
with
her
;
of
being
considered
as
already
friends
,
through
the
friendship
of
their
brothers
,
etc
.
,
which
Catherine
heard
with
pleasure
,
and
answered
with
all
the
pretty
expressions
she
could
command
;
and
,
as
the
first
proof
of
amity
,
she
was
soon
invited
to
accept
an
arm
of
the
eldest
Miss
Thorpe
,
and
take
a
turn
with
her
about
the
room
.
