Yes
,
sir
;
for
hours
if
you
will
.
"
"
I
ask
only
minutes
.
Jane
,
did
you
ever
hear
or
know
that
I
was
not
the
eldest
son
of
my
house
:
that
I
had
once
a
brother
older
than
I
?
"
"
I
remember
Mrs.
Fairfax
told
me
so
once
.
"
"
And
did
you
ever
hear
that
my
father
was
an
avaricious
,
grasping
man
?
"
"
I
have
understood
something
to
that
effect
.
"
"
Well
,
Jane
,
being
so
,
it
was
his
resolution
to
keep
the
property
together
;
he
could
not
bear
the
idea
of
dividing
his
estate
and
leaving
me
a
fair
portion
:
all
,
he
resolved
,
should
go
to
my
brother
,
Rowland
.
Yet
as
little
could
he
endure
that
a
son
of
his
should
be
a
poor
man
.
I
must
be
provided
for
by
a
wealthy
marriage
.
He
sought
me
a
partner
betimes
.
Mr.
Mason
,
a
West
India
planter
and
merchant
,
was
his
old
acquaintance
.
He
was
certain
his
possessions
were
real
and
vast
:
he
made
inquiries
.
Mr.
Mason
,
he
found
,
had
a
son
and
daughter
;
and
he
learned
from
him
that
he
could
and
would
give
the
latter
a
fortune
of
thirty
thousand
pounds
:
that
sufficed
.
When
I
left
college
,
I
was
sent
out
to
Jamaica
,
to
espouse
a
bride
already
courted
for
me
.
My
father
said
nothing
about
her
money
;
but
he
told
me
Miss
Mason
was
the
boast
of
Spanish
Town
for
her
beauty
:
and
this
was
no
lie
.
I
found
her
a
fine
woman
,
in
the
style
of
Blanche
Ingram
:
tall
,
dark
,
and
majestic
.
Her
family
wished
to
secure
me
because
I
was
of
a
good
race
;
and
so
did
she
.
They
showed
her
to
me
in
parties
,
splendidly
dressed
.
I
seldom
saw
her
alone
,
and
had
very
little
private
conversation
with
her
.
She
flattered
me
,
and
lavishly
displayed
for
my
pleasure
her
charms
and
accomplishments
.
All
the
men
in
her
circle
seemed
to
admire
her
and
envy
me
.
I
was
dazzled
,
stimulated
:
my
senses
were
excited
;
and
being
ignorant
,
raw
,
and
inexperienced
,
I
thought
I
loved
her
.
There
is
no
folly
so
besotted
that
the
idiotic
rivalries
of
society
,
the
prurience
,
the
rashness
,
the
blindness
of
youth
,
will
not
hurry
a
man
to
its
commission
.
Her
relatives
encouraged
me
;
competitors
piqued
me
;
she
allured
me
:
a
marriage
was
achieved
almost
before
I
knew
where
I
was
.
Oh
,
I
have
no
respect
for
myself
when
I
think
of
that
act
!
--
an
agony
of
inward
contempt
masters
me
.
I
never
loved
,
I
never
esteemed
,
I
did
not
even
know
her
.
I
was
not
sure
of
the
existence
of
one
virtue
in
her
nature
:
I
had
marked
neither
modesty
,
nor
benevolence
,
nor
candour
,
nor
refinement
in
her
mind
or
manners
--
and
,
I
married
her
:
-
gross
,
grovelling
,
mole-eyed
blockhead
that
I
was
!
With
less
sin
I
might
have
--
But
let
me
remember
to
whom
I
am
speaking
.
"
"
My
bride
's
mother
I
had
never
seen
:
I
understood
she
was
dead
.
The
honeymoon
over
,
I
learned
my
mistake
;
she
was
only
mad
,
and
shut
up
in
a
lunatic
asylum
.
There
was
a
younger
brother
,
too
--
a
complete
dumb
idiot
.
The
elder
one
,
whom
you
have
seen
(
and
whom
I
can
not
hate
,
whilst
I
abhor
all
his
kindred
,
because
he
has
some
grains
of
affection
in
his
feeble
mind
,
shown
in
the
continued
interest
he
takes
in
his
wretched
sister
,
and
also
in
a
dog-like
attachment
he
once
bore
me
)
,
will
probably
be
in
the
same
state
one
day
.
My
father
and
my
brother
Rowland
knew
all
this
;
but
they
thought
only
of
the
thirty
thousand
pounds
,
and
joined
in
the
plot
against
me
.
"
"
These
were
vile
discoveries
;
but
except
for
the
treachery
of
concealment
,
I
should
have
made
them
no
subject
of
reproach
to
my
wife
,
even
when
I
found
her
nature
wholly
alien
to
mine
,
her
tastes
obnoxious
to
me
,
her
cast
of
mind
common
,
low
,
narrow
,
and
singularly
incapable
of
being
led
to
anything
higher
,
expanded
to
anything
larger
--
when
I
found
that
I
could
not
pass
a
single
evening
,
nor
even
a
single
hour
of
the
day
with
her
in
comfort
;
that
kindly
conversation
could
not
be
sustained
between
us
,
because
whatever
topic
I
started
,
immediately
received
from
her
a
turn
at
once
coarse
and
trite
,
perverse
and
imbecile
--
when
I
perceived
that
I
should
never
have
a
quiet
or
settled
household
,
because
no
servant
would
bear
the
continued
outbreaks
of
her
violent
and
unreasonable
temper
,
or
the
vexations
of
her
absurd
,
contradictory
,
exacting
orders
--
even
then
I
restrained
myself
:
I
eschewed
upbraiding
,
I
curtailed
remonstrance
;
I
tried
to
devour
my
repentance
and
disgust
in
secret
;
I
repressed
the
deep
antipathy
I
felt
.
