That
is
very
amiable
in
you
,
my
dear
Dorothea
,
"
said
Mr
.
Casaubon
,
not
in
the
least
noticing
that
she
was
hurt
;
"
but
if
you
had
a
lady
as
your
companion
,
I
could
put
you
both
under
the
care
of
a
cicerone
,
and
we
could
thus
achieve
two
purposes
in
the
same
space
of
time
.
"
"
I
beg
you
will
not
refer
to
this
again
,
"
said
Dorothea
,
rather
haughtily
.
But
immediately
she
feared
that
she
was
wrong
,
and
turning
towards
him
she
laid
her
hand
on
his
,
adding
in
a
different
tone
,
"
Pray
do
not
be
anxious
about
me
.
I
shall
have
so
much
to
think
of
when
I
am
alone
.
And
Tantripp
will
be
a
sufficient
companion
,
just
to
take
care
of
me
.
I
could
not
bear
to
have
Celia
:
she
would
be
miserable
.
"
It
was
time
to
dress
.
There
was
to
be
a
dinner
-
party
that
day
,
the
last
of
the
parties
which
were
held
at
the
Grange
as
proper
preliminaries
to
the
wedding
,
and
Dorothea
was
glad
of
a
reason
for
moving
away
at
once
on
the
sound
of
the
bell
,
as
if
she
needed
more
than
her
usual
amount
of
preparation
.
She
was
ashamed
of
being
irritated
from
some
cause
she
could
not
define
even
to
herse1f
;
for
though
she
had
no
intention
to
be
untruthful
,
her
reply
had
not
touched
the
real
hurt
within
her
.
Mr
.
Casaubon
’
s
words
had
been
quite
reasonable
,
yet
they
had
brought
a
vague
instantaneous
sense
of
aloofness
on
his
part
.
"
Surely
I
am
in
a
strangely
selfish
weak
state
of
mind
,
"
she
said
to
herself
.
"
How
can
I
have
a
husband
who
is
so
much
above
me
without
knowing
that
he
needs
me
less
than
I
need
him
?
"
Having
convinced
herself
that
Mr
.
Casaubon
was
altogether
right
,
she
recovered
her
equanimity
,
and
was
an
agreeable
image
of
serene
dignity
when
she
came
into
the
drawing
-
room
in
her
silver
-
gray
dress
—
the
simple
lines
of
her
dark
-
brown
hair
parted
over
her
brow
and
coiled
massively
behind
,
in
keeping
with
the
entire
absence
from
her
manner
and
expression
of
all
search
after
mere
effect
.
Sometimes
when
Dorothea
was
in
company
,
there
seemed
to
be
as
complete
an
air
of
repose
about
her
as
if
she
had
been
a
picture
of
Santa
Barbara
looking
out
from
her
tower
into
the
clear
air
;
but
these
intervals
of
quietude
made
the
energy
of
her
speech
and
emotion
the
more
remarked
when
some
outward
appeal
had
touched
her
.
She
was
naturally
the
subject
of
many
observations
this
evening
,
for
the
dinner
-
party
was
large
and
rather
more
miscellaneous
as
to
the
male
portion
than
any
which
had
been
held
at
the
Grange
since
Mr
.
Brooke
’
s
nieces
had
resided
with
him
,
so
that
the
talking
was
done
in
duos
and
trios
more
or
less
inharmonious
.
There
was
the
newly
elected
mayor
of
Middlemarch
,
who
happened
to
be
a
manufacturer
;
the
philanthropic
banker
his
brother
-
in
-
law
,
who
predominated
so
much
in
the
town
that
some
called
him
a
Methodist
,
others
a
hypocrite
,
according
to
the
resources
of
their
vocabulary
;
and
there
were
various
professional
men
.
In
fact
,
Mrs
.
Cadwallader
said
that
Brooke
was
beginning
to
treat
the
Middlemarchers
,
and
that
she
preferred
the
farmers
at
the
tithe
-
dinner
,
who
drank
her
health
unpretentiously
,
and
were
not
ashamed
of
their
grandfathers
’
furniture
.
For
in
that
part
of
the
country
,
before
reform
had
done
its
notable
part
in
developing
the
political
consciousness
,
there
was
a
clearer
distinction
of
ranks
and
a
dimmer
distinction
of
parties
;
so
that
Mr
.
Brooke
’
s
miscellaneous
invitations
seemed
to
belong
to
that
general
laxity
which
came
from
his
inordinate
travel
and
habit
of
taking
too
much
in
the
form
of
ideas
.
Already
,
as
Miss
Brooke
passed
out
of
the
dining
-
room
,
opportunity
was
found
for
some
interjectional
"
asides
"
"
A
fine
woman
,
Miss
Brooke
!
an
uncommonly
fine
woman
,
by
God
!
"
said
Mr
.
Standish
,
the
old
lawyer
,
who
had
been
so
long
concerned
with
the
landed
gentry
that
he
had
become
landed
himself
,
and
used
that
oath
in
a
deep
-
mouthed
manner
as
a
sort
of
armorial
bearings
,
stamping
the
speech
of
a
man
who
held
a
good
position
.
