from Richmond, he would have been glad to see MrsAll that followed was the result of her imprudence; and he
went off with her at last, because he could not help it, regretting
Fanny even at the moment, but regretting her infinitely more when
all the bustle of the intrigue was over, and a very few months had
taught him, by the force of contrast, to place a yet higher value on
the sweetness of her temper, the purity of her mind, and the excellence
of her principles
That punishment, the public punishment of disgrace, should in a
just measure attend his share of the offence is, we know, not one of
the barriers which society gives to virtueIn this world the penalty is
less equal than could be wished; but without presuming to look
forward to a juster appointment hereafter, we may fairly consider a

man of sense, like Henry Crawford, to be providing for himself no
small portion of vexation and regret: vexation that must rise sometimes
to self-reproach, and regret to wretchedness, in having so requited
hospitality, so injured family peace, so forfeited his best, most
estimable, and endeared acquaintance, and so lost the woman whom
he had rationally as well as passionately loved
After what had passed to wound and alienate the two families, the
continuance of the Bertrams and Grants in such close neighbourhood
would have been most distressing; but the absence of the latter, for
some months purposely lengthened, ended very fortunately in the
necessity, or at least the practicability, of a permanent removal
Grant, through an interest on which he had almost ceased to form
hopes, succeeded to a stall in Westminster, which, as affording an
occasion for leaving Mansfield, an excuse for residence in London,
and an increase of income to answer the expenses of the change,
was highly acceptable to those who went and those who staidGrant, with a temper to love and be loved, must have gone
with some regret from the scenes and people she had been used to;
but the same happiness of disposition must in any place, and any
society, secure her a great deal to enjoy, and she had again a home to
offer Mary; and Mary had rolex submariner 50th anniversary had enough of her own friends, enough
of vanity, ambition, love, and disappointment in the course of the
last half-year, to be in need of the true kindness of her sister?s heart,
and the rational tranquillity of her waysThey lived together; and
when DrGrant had brought on apoplexy and death, by three great
institutionary dinners in one week, they still lived together; for Mary,
though perfectly resolved against ever attaching herself to a younger
brother again, was long in finding among the dashing representatives,
or idle heir-apparents, who were at the command of her beauty, and
her 20,000, any one who could satisfy the better taste she had acquired
at Mansfield, whose character and manners could authorise a
hope of the domestic happiness she had there learned to estimate, or
put Edmund Bertram sufficiently out of her head
Edmund had greatly the advantage of her in this respectHe had
not to wait and wish with vacant affections for an object worthy to
succeed her in themScarcely had he done regretting Mary Crawford,
and observing to Fanny how impossible it was that he should ever

Jane Austen
meet with such another woman, before it began to strike him whether
a very different kind of woman might not do just as well, or a great
deal better: whether Fanny herself were not growing as dear, as important
to him in all her smiles and all her ways, as Mary Crawford
had ever been; and whether it might not be a possible, an hopeful
undertaking to persuade her that her warm and sisterly regard for
him would be foundation enough for wedded love
I purposely abstain from dates on this occasion, that every one
may be at liberty to fix their own, aware that the cure of unconquerable
passions, and the transfer of unchanging attachments, must
vary much as to time in different peopleI only entreat everybody
to believe that exactly at the time when it was quite natural that it
should be so, and not a week earlier, Edmund did cease to care
about Miss Crawford, and became as anxious to marry Fanny as
Fanny herself could desire
With such a regard for her, indeed, as his had long been, a regard
founded on the most endearing claims of innocence and helplessness,
and completed by every coco chanel designer recommendation of growing worth,
what could be more natural than the change? Loving, guiding, protecting
her, as he had been doing ever since her being ten years old,
her mind in so great a degree formed by his care, and her comfort
depending on his kindness, an object to him of such close and peculiar
interest, dearer by all his own importance with her than any
one else at Mansfield, what was there now to add, but that he should
learn to prefer soft light eyes to sparkling dark onesAnd being
always with her, and always talking confidentially, and his feelings
exactly in that favourable state which a recent disappointment gives,
those soft light eyes could not be very long in obtaining the preeminence
Having once set out, and felt that he had done so on this road to
happiness, there was nothing on the side of prudence to stop him or
make his progress slow; no doubts of her deserving, no fears of opposition
of taste, no need of drawing new hopes of happiness from
dissimilarity of temperHer mind, disposition, opinions, and habits
wanted no half-concealment, no self-deception on the present,
no reliance on future improvementEven in the midst of his late
infatuation, he had acknowledged Fanny?s mental superiorityWhat
412
Mansfield Park
must be his sense of it now, therefore? She was of course only too
good for him; but as nobody minds having what is too good for
them, he was very steadily earnest in the pursuit of the blessing, and
it was not possible that encouragement from her should be long
wantingTimid, anxious, doubting as she was, it was still impossible
that such tenderness as hers should not, at times, hold out the
strongest hope of success, though it remained for a later period to
tell him the whole delightful and astonishing truthHis happiness
in knowing himself to have been so long the beloved of such a heart,
must have been great enough to warrant any strength of language in
which he could clothe it to her or to himself; it must have been a
delightful happinessBut there was happiness elsewhere which no
description can reachLet no one presume to give the feelings of a
young woman on receiving the assurance of that affection of which
she has scarcely allowed herself to sac dolce gabana entertain a hope
Their own inclinations ascertained, there were no difficulties behind,
no drawback of poverty or parentIt was a match which Sir
Thomas?s wishes had even forestalledSick of ambitious and mercenary
connexions, prizing more and more the sterling good of principle
and temper, and chiefly anxious to bind by the strongest securities
all that remained to him of domestic felicity, he had pondered
with genuine satisfaction on the more than possibility of the two
young friends finding their natural consolation in each other for all
that had occurred of disappointment to either; and the joyful consent
which met Edmund?s application, the high sense of having
realised a great acquisition in the promise of Fanny for a daughter,
formed just such a contrast with his early opinion on the subject
when the poor little girl?s coming had been first agitated, as time is
for ever producing between the plans and decisions of mortals, for
their own instruction, and their neighbours? entertainment
Fanny was indeed the daughter that he wantedHis charitable
kindness had been rearing a prime comfort for himselfHis liberality
had a rich repayment, and the general goodness of his intentions
by her deserved itHe might have made her childhood happier; but
it had been an error of judgment only which had given him the
appearance of harshness, and deprived him of her early love; and

came very strongAfter settling her at Thornton Lacey with every
kind attention to her comfort, the object of almost every day was to
see her there, or to get her away from it
Selfishly dear as she had long been to Lady Bertram, she could
not be parted with willingly by herNo happiness of son or niece
could make her wish the marriageBut it was possible to part with
her, because Susan remained to supply her placeSusan became the
stationary niece, delighted to be so; and equally well adapted for it
by a readiness of mind, and an inclination for usefulness, as Fanny
had been by sweetness of temper, and strong feelings of gratitude
Susan could never be sparedFirst as a comfort to Fanny, then as an
auxiliary, and last as her substitute, she white ceramic chanel watch was established at Mansfield,
with every appearance of equal permanencyHer more fearless disposition
and happier nerves made everything easy to her thereWith
quickness in understanding the tempers of those she had to deal
with, and no natural timidity to restrain any consequent wishes, she
was soon welcome and useful to all; and after Fanny?s removal succeeded
so naturally to her influence over the hourly comfort of her
aunt, as gradually to become, perhaps, the most beloved of the two
In her usefulness, in Fanny?s excellence, in William?s continued good
conduct and rising fame, and in the general well-doing and success
of the other members of the family, all assisting to advance each
other, and doing credit to his countenance and aid, Sir Thomas saw
repeated, and for ever repeated, reason to rejoice in what he had
done for them all, and acknowledge the advantages of early hardship
and discipline, and the consciousness of being born to struggle
and endure
With so much true merit and true love, and no want of fortune
and friends, the happiness of the married cousins must appear as
secure as earthly happiness can beEqually formed for domestic
life, and attached to country pleasures, their home was the home of
affection and comfort; and to complete the picture of good, the
acquisition of Mansfield living, by the death of DrGrant, occurred
just after they had been married long enough to begin to want an
increase of income, and feel their distance from the paternal abode
an inconvenience
On that event they removed to Mansfield; and the Parsonage there,

Even your constant little heart need not take fright at such a
nominal changeYou will have the same walks to frequent, the same
library to choose from, the same people to look at, the same horse
to rideYes, dear old grey pony! Ah! cousin, when I remember
how much I used to dread riding, what terrors it gave me to hear it
talked of as likely to do me good (oh! how I have trembled at my
uncle?s opening his lips if horses were talked of ), and then think of
the kind pains you took to reason and persuade me out of my fears,
and convince me that I should like it after a little while, and feel
how right you proved to be, I am inclined to hope you may always
prophesy as well
?And I am quite convinced that your being with MrsNorris will be
as good for your mind as riding has been for your health, and as
much for your ultimate happiness too
So ended their discourse, which, for any very appropriate service
it could render Fanny, might as well have been spared, for Mrs
Norris had not the smallest intention of taking herIt had quilted chanel purse never
occurred to her, on the present occasion, but as a thing to be carefully
avoidedTo prevent its being expected, she had fixed on the
smallest habitation which could rank as genteel among the buildings
of Mansfield parish, the White House being only just large
enough to receive herself and her servants, and allow a spare room
for a friend, of which she made a very particular pointThe spare
rooms at the Parsonage had never been wanted, but the absolute
necessity of a spare room for a friend was now never forgottenNot
all her precautions, however, could save her from being suspected of
something better; or, perhaps, her very display of the importance of
a spare room might have misled Sir Thomas to suppose it really
intended for FannyLady Bertram soon brought the matter to a
certainty by carelessly observing to MrsNorris?

widow, unfit for anything, my spirits quite broke down; what could
I do with a girl at her time of life? A girl of fifteen! the very age of all
others to need most attention and care, and put the cheerfullest
spirits to the test! Sure Sir Thomas could not seriously expect such a
thing! Sir Thomas is too much my friendNobody that wishes me
well, I am sure, would propose itHow came Sir Thomas to speak to
you about it??
?Indeed, I do not knowI suppose he thought it best
?But what did he say? He could not say he wished me to take

?No; he only said he thought it very likely; and I thought so too
We both thought it would be a comfort to youBut if you do not

?Dear sister, if you consider my unhappy state, how can she be
any comfort to me? Here am I, a poor desolate widow, deprived of
the best of husbands, my health gone in attending and nursing him,
my spirits still worse, all my peace in this world destroyed, with
hardly enough to support me in the rank of a gentlewoman, and
enable me to live so as not to disgrace the memory of the dear departed?

upon me as Fanny? If I could wish it for my own sake, I would not

Coming as he did from such a purport
fulfilled as had taken him away, he would have expected anything
rather than a look of satisfaction, and words of simple, pleasant
meaningIt was enough to set his heart in a glow, and to bring
him home in the properest state for feeling the full value of the
other joyful surprises at hand
William?s promotion, with all its particulars, he was soon master
of; and with such a secret provision of comfort within his own breast
to help the joy, he found in it a source of most gratifying sensation
and unvarying cheerfulness all dinner-time
After dinner, when he and his father were alone, he had Fanny?s
history; and then all the great events of the last fortnight, and the
present situation of matters at Mansfield were known to him
Fanny suspected what was going onThey sat so much longer
than usual in the dining-parlour, that she was sure they must be
290
Mansfield Park
talking of her; and when tea at last brought them away, and she was
to be seen by Edmund again, she felt dreadfully guiltyHe came to
her, sat down by her, took her hand, and pressed it kindly; and at
that moment she thought that, but for the occupation and the scene
which the tea-things afforded, she must have betrayed her emotion
in some unpardonable excess
He was not intending, however, by such action, to be conveying
to her that unqualified approbation and encouragement which her
hopes drew from itIt was designed only to express his participation
in all that interested her, and to tell her black chanel handbags that he had been hearing
what quickened every feeling of affectionHe was, in fact, entirely
on his father?s side of the questionHis surprise was not so great as
his father?s at her refusing Crawford, because, so far from supposing
her to consider him with anything like a preference, he had always
believed it to be rather the reverse, and could imagine her to be
taken perfectly unprepared, but Sir Thomas could not regard the
connexion as more desirable than he didIt had every recommendation
to him; and while honouring her for what she had done
under the influence of her present indifference, honouring her in
rather stronger terms than Sir Thomas could quite echo, he was
most earnest in hoping, and sanguine in believing, that it would be
a match at last, and that, united by mutual affection, it would appear
that their dispositions were as exactly fitted to make them blessed
in each other, as he was now beginning seriously to consider them
Crawford had been too precipitateHe had not given her time to
attach herselfHe had begun at the wrong endWith such powers
as his, however, and such a disposition as hers, Edmund trusted that
everything would work out a happy conclusionMeanwhile, he saw
enough of Fanny?s embarrassment to make him scrupulously guard
against exciting it a second time, by any word, or look, or movement
Crawford called the next day, and on the score of Edmund?s return,
Sir Thomas felt himself more than licensed to ask him to stay
dinner; it was really a necessary complimentHe staid omega deville watch of course,
and Edmund had then ample opportunity for observing how he
sped with Fanny, and what degree of immediate encouragement for
him might be extracted from her manners; and it was so little, so

very, very little?every chance, every possibility of it, resting upon
her embarrassment only; if there was not hope in her confusion,
there was hope in nothing else?that he was almost ready to wonder
at his friend?s perseveranceFanny was worth it all; he held her
to be worth every effort of patience, every exertion of mind, but he
did not think he could have gone on himself with any woman breathing,
without something more to warm his courage than his eyes
could discern in hersHe was very willing to hope that Crawford
saw clearer, and this was the most comfortable conclusion for his
friend that he could come to from all that he observed to pass before,
and at, and after dinner
In the evening a few circumstances occurred which he thought
more promisingWhen he and Crawford walked into the drawingroom,
his mother and Fanny were sitting as intently and silently at
work as if there were nothing else to care forEdmund could not
help noticing their apparently deep tranquillity
?We have not been so silent all the time,? replied his mother
?Fanny has been reading to me, and only put the book down upon
hearing you coming And sure enough there was a book on the
table which had the air of being very recently closed: a volume of
Shakespeare?She often reads to me out of those books; and chanel pearl necklace she
was in the middle of a very fine speech of that man?s?what?s his
name, Fanny??when we heard your footsteps
Crawford took the volume?Let me have the pleasure of finishing
that speech to your ladyship,? said he?I shall find it immediately
And by carefully giving way to the inclination of the leaves, he did
find it, or within a page or two, quite near enough to satisfy Lady
Bertram, who assured him, as soon as he mentioned the name of
Cardinal Wolsey, that he had got the very speechNot a look or an
offer of help had Fanny given; not a syllable for or againstAll her
attention was for her workShe seemed determined to be interested
by nothing elseBut taste was too strong in herShe could not abstract
her mind five minutes: she was forced to listen; his reading
was capital, and her pleasure in good reading extremeTo good reading,
however, she had been long used: her uncle read well, her cousins
all, Edmund very well, but in MrCrawford?s reading there was
a variety of excellence beyond what she had ever met withThe

King, the Queen, Buckingham, Wolsey, Cromwell, all were given
in turn; for with the happiest knack, the happiest power of jumping
and guessing, he could always alight at will on the best scene, or the
best speeches of each; and whether it were dignity, or pride, or tenderness,
or remorse, or whatever were to be expressed, he could do
it with equal beautyIt was truly dramaticHis acting had first taught
Fanny what pleasure a play might give, and his reading brought chanel classic bags all
his acting before her again; nay, perhaps with greater enjoyment,
for it came unexpectedly, and with no such drawback as she had
been used to suffer in seeing him on the stage with Miss Bertram
Edmund watched the progress of her attention, and was amused
and gratified by seeing how she gradually slackened in the needlework,
which at the beginning seemed to occupy her totally: how it
fell from her hand while she sat motionless over it, and at last, how
the eyes which had appeared so studiously to avoid him throughout
the day were turned and fixed on Crawford?fixed on him for minutes,
fixed on him, in short, till the attraction drew Crawford?s upon
her, and the book was closed, and the charm was brokenThen she
was shrinking again into herself, and blushing and working as hard
as ever; but it had been enough to give Edmund encouragement for
his friend, and as he cordially thanked him, he hoped to be expressing
Fanny?s secret feelings too
?That play must be a favourite with you,? said he; ?you read as if
you knew it well
?It will be a favourite, I believe, from this hour,? replied Crawford;
?but I do not think I have had a volume of Shakespeare in my hand
before since I was fifteenI once saw Henry the Eighth acted, or I
have heard of it from somebody who did, I am not certain which
