Cadwallader
inquire
into
the
comprehensiveness
of
her
own
beautiful
views
,
and
be
quite
sure
that
they
afford
accommodation
for
all
the
lives
which
have
the
honor
to
coexist
with
hers
.
With
such
a
mind
,
active
as
phosphorus
,
biting
everything
that
came
near
into
the
form
that
suited
it
,
how
could
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
feel
that
the
Miss
Brookes
and
their
matrimonial
prospects
were
alien
to
her
?
especially
as
it
had
been
the
habit
of
years
for
her
to
scold
Mr
.
Brooke
with
the
friendliest
frankness
,
and
let
him
know
in
confidence
that
she
thought
him
a
poor
creature
.
From
the
first
arrival
of
the
young
ladies
in
Tipton
she
had
prearranged
Dorothea
’
s
marriage
with
Sir
James
,
and
if
it
had
taken
place
would
have
been
quite
sure
that
it
was
her
doing
:
that
it
should
not
take
place
after
she
had
preconceived
it
,
caused
her
an
irritation
which
every
thinker
will
sympathize
with
.
She
was
the
diplomatist
of
Tipton
and
Freshitt
,
and
for
anything
to
happen
in
spite
of
her
was
an
offensive
irregularity
.
As
to
freaks
like
this
of
Miss
Brooke
’
s
,
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
had
no
patience
with
them
,
and
now
saw
that
her
opinion
of
this
girl
had
been
infected
with
some
of
her
husband
’
s
weak
charitableness
:
those
Methodistical
whims
,
that
air
of
being
more
religious
than
the
rector
and
curate
together
,
came
from
a
deeper
and
more
constitutional
disease
than
she
had
been
willing
to
believe
.
"
However
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
,
first
to
herself
and
afterwards
to
her
husband
,
"
I
throw
her
over
:
there
was
a
chance
,
if
she
had
married
Sir
James
,
of
her
becoming
a
sane
,
sensible
woman
.
He
would
never
have
contradicted
her
,
and
when
a
woman
is
not
contradicted
,
she
has
no
motive
for
obstinacy
in
her
absurdities
.
But
now
I
wish
her
joy
of
her
hair
shirt
.
"
It
followed
that
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
must
decide
on
another
match
for
Sir
James
,
and
having
made
up
her
mind
that
it
was
to
be
the
younger
Miss
Brooke
,
there
could
not
have
been
a
more
skilful
move
towards
the
success
of
her
plan
than
her
hint
to
the
baronet
that
he
had
made
an
impression
on
Celia
’
s
heart
.
For
he
was
not
one
of
those
gentlemen
who
languish
after
the
unattainable
Sappho
’
s
apple
that
laughs
from
the
topmost
bough
—
the
charms
which
"
Smile
like
the
knot
of
cowslips
on
the
cliff
,
Not
to
be
come
at
by
the
willing
hand
.
"
He
had
no
sonnets
to
write
,
and
it
could
not
strike
him
agreeably
that
he
was
not
an
object
of
preference
to
the
woman
whom
he
had
preferred
.
Already
the
knowledge
that
Dorothea
had
chosen
Mr
.
Casaubon
had
bruised
his
attachment
and
relaxed
its
hold
.
Although
Sir
James
was
a
sportsman
,
he
had
some
other
feelings
towards
women
than
towards
grouse
and
foxes
,
and
did
not
regard
his
future
wife
in
the
light
of
prey
,
valuable
chiefly
for
the
excitements
of
the
chase
.
Neither
was
he
so
well
acquainted
with
the
habits
of
primitive
races
as
to
feel
that
an
ideal
combat
for
her
,
tomahawk
in
hand
,
so
to
speak
,
was
necessary
to
the
historical
continuity
of
the
marriage
-
tie
.
On
the
contrary
,
having
the
amiable
vanity
which
knits
us
to
those
who
are
fond
of
us
,
and
disinclines
us
to
those
who
are
indifferent
,
and
also
a
good
grateful
nature
,
the
mere
idea
that
a
woman
had
a
kindness
towards
him
spun
little
threads
of
tenderness
from
out
his
heart
towards
hers
.
Thus
it
happened
,
that
after
Sir
James
had
ridden
rather
fast
for
half
an
hour
in
a
direction
away
from
Tipton
Grange
,
he
slackened
his
pace
,
and
at
last
turned
into
a
road
which
would
lead
him
back
by
a
shorter
cut
.
Various
feelings
wrought
in
him
the
determination
after
all
to
go
to
the
Grange
to
-
day
as
if
nothing
new
had
happened
.
He
could
not
help
rejoicing
that
he
had
never
made
the
offer
and
been
rejected
;
mere
friendly
politeness
required
that
he
should
call
to
see
Dorothea
about
the
cottages
,
and
now
happily
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
had
prepared
him
to
offer
his
congratulations
,
if
necessary
,
without
showing
too
much
awkwardness
.
He
really
did
not
like
it
:
giving
up
Dorothea
was
very
painful
to
him
;
but
there
was
something
in
the
resolve
to
make
this
visit
forthwith
and
conquer
all
show
of
feeling
,
which
was
a
sort
of
file
-
biting
and
counter
-
irritant
.
And
without
his
distinctly
recognizing
the
impulse
,
there
certainly
was
present
in
him
the
sense
that
Celia
would
be
there
,
and
that
he
should
pay
her
more
attention
than
he
had
done
before
We
mortals
,
men
and
women
,
devour
many
a
disappointment
between
breakfast
and
dinner
-
time
;
keep
back
the
tears
and
look
a
little
pale
about
the
lips
,
and
in
answer
to
inquiries
say
,
"
Oh
,
nothing
!
"
Pride
helps
us
;
and
pride
is
not
a
bad
thing
when
it
only
urges
us
to
hide
our
own
hurts
—
not
to
hurt
others
.
