But
,
my
dear
Chettam
,
why
should
I
use
my
influence
to
Casaubon
’
s
disadvantage
,
unless
I
were
much
surer
than
I
am
that
I
should
be
acting
for
the
advantage
of
Miss
Brooke
?
I
know
no
harm
of
Casaubon
.
I
don
’
t
care
about
his
Xisuthrus
and
Fee
-
fo
-
fum
and
the
rest
;
but
then
he
doesn
’
t
care
about
my
fishing
-
tackle
.
As
to
the
line
he
took
on
the
Catholic
Question
,
that
was
unexpected
;
but
he
has
always
been
civil
to
me
,
and
I
don
’
t
see
why
I
should
spoil
his
sport
.
For
anything
I
can
tell
,
Miss
Brooke
may
be
happier
with
him
than
she
would
be
with
any
other
man
.
"
"
Humphrey
!
I
have
no
patience
with
you
.
You
know
you
would
rather
dine
under
the
hedge
than
with
Casaubon
alone
.
You
have
nothing
to
say
to
each
other
.
"
"
What
has
that
to
do
with
Miss
Brooke
’
s
marrying
him
?
She
does
not
do
it
for
my
amusement
.
"
"
He
has
got
no
good
red
blood
in
his
body
,
"
said
Sir
James
.
"
No
.
Somebody
put
a
drop
under
a
magnifying
-
glass
and
it
was
all
semicolons
and
parentheses
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
.
"
Why
does
he
not
bring
out
his
book
,
instead
of
marrying
,
"
said
Sir
James
,
with
a
disgust
which
he
held
warranted
by
the
sound
feeling
of
an
English
layman
.
"
Oh
,
he
dreams
footnotes
,
and
they
run
away
with
all
his
brains
.
They
say
,
when
he
was
a
little
boy
,
he
made
an
abstract
of
‘
Hop
o
’
my
Thumb
,
’
and
he
has
been
making
abstracts
ever
since
.
Ugh
!
And
that
is
the
man
Humphrey
goes
on
saying
that
a
woman
may
be
happy
with
.
"
"
Well
,
he
is
what
Miss
Brooke
likes
,
"
said
the
Rector
.
"
I
don
’
t
profess
to
understand
every
young
lady
’
s
taste
.
"
"
But
if
she
were
your
own
daughter
?
"
said
Sir
James
.
