There, Mrs. Grant, you see how he dwells on one word, and only look at his smile. I assure you he is very detestable; the Admirals lessons have quite spoiled him. I pay very little regard, said Mrs. Grant, to what any young person says on the subject of marriage. If they profess a disinclination for it, I only set it down that they have not yet seen the right person. Dr. Grant laughingly congratulated Miss Crawford on feeling no disinclination to the state herself. Oh yes! I am not at all ashamed of it. I would have everybody marry if they can do it properly: I do not like to have people throw themselves away; but everybody should marry as soon as they can do it to advantage. Uploaded July 11, 1994 Mansfield Park (1814) by Jane Austen |
