There certainly was some great mismanagement in the education of those two young men. One has got all the goodness, and the other all the appearance of it.

I beg your pardon; one knows exactly what to think.

But one never does form a just idea of anybody beforehand. One takes up a notion and runs away with it.

Company is always cheerful.

Maria was married on Saturday. In all important preparations of mind she was complete, being prepared for matrimony by a hatred of home, by the misery of disappointed affection, and contempt of the man she was to marry. The bride was elegantly dressed and the two bridesmaids were duly inferior. Her mother stood with salts, expecting to be agitated, and her aunt tried to cry. Marriage is indeed a maneuvering business.

Ever since her being turned into a Churchill, she has out-Churchill'd them all in high and mighty claims.
