In
the
evening
,
as
Marianne
was
discovered
to
be
musical
,
she
was
invited
to
play
The
instrument
was
unlocked
,
every
body
prepared
to
be
charmed
,
and
Marianne
,
who
sang
very
well
,
at
their
request
went
through
the
chief
of
the
songs
which
Lady
Middleton
had
brought
into
the
family
on
her
marriage
,
and
which
perhaps
had
lain
ever
since
in
the
same
position
on
the
pianoforte
,
for
her
ladyship
had
celebrated
that
event
by
giving
up
music
,
although
by
her
mother
’
s
account
,
she
had
played
extremely
well
,
and
by
her
own
was
very
fond
of
it
.
Marianne
’
s
performance
was
highly
applauded
.
Sir
John
was
loud
in
his
admiration
at
the
end
of
every
song
,
and
as
loud
in
his
conversation
with
the
others
while
every
song
lasted
.
Lady
Middleton
frequently
called
him
to
order
,
wondered
how
any
one
’
s
attention
could
be
diverted
from
music
for
a
moment
,
and
asked
Marianne
to
sing
a
particular
song
which
Marianne
had
just
finished
.
Colonel
Brandon
alone
,
of
all
the
party
,
heard
her
without
being
in
raptures
.
He
paid
her
only
the
compliment
of
attention
;
and
she
felt
a
respect
for
him
on
the
occasion
,
which
the
others
had
reasonably
forfeited
by
their
shameless
want
of
taste
.
His
pleasure
in
music
,
though
it
amounted
not
to
that
ecstatic
delight
which
alone
could
sympathize
with
her
own
,
was
estimable
when
contrasted
against
the
horrible
insensibility
of
the
others
;
and
she
was
reasonable
enough
to
allow
that
a
man
of
five
and
thirty
might
well
have
outlived
all
acuteness
of
feeling
and
every
exquisite
power
of
enjoyment
.
She
was
perfectly
disposed
to
make
every
allowance
for
the
colonel
’
s
advanced
state
of
life
which
humanity
required
.
Mrs
.
Jennings
was
a
widow
with
an
ample
jointure
.
She
had
only
two
daughters
,
both
of
whom
she
had
lived
to
see
respectably
married
,
and
she
had
now
therefore
nothing
to
do
but
to
marry
all
the
rest
of
the
world
.
In
the
promotion
of
this
object
she
was
zealously
active
,
as
far
as
her
ability
reached
;
and
missed
no
opportunity
of
projecting
weddings
among
all
the
young
people
of
her
acquaintance
.
She
was
remarkably
quick
in
the
discovery
of
attachments
,
and
had
enjoyed
the
advantage
of
raising
the
blushes
and
the
vanity
of
many
a
young
lady
by
insinuations
of
her
power
over
such
a
young
man
;
and
this
kind
of
discernment
enabled
her
soon
after
her
arrival
at
Barton
decisively
to
pronounce
that
Colonel
Brandon
was
very
much
in
love
with
Marianne
Dashwood
.
She
rather
suspected
it
to
be
so
,
on
the
very
first
evening
of
their
being
together
,
from
his
listening
so
attentively
while
she
sang
to
them
;
and
when
the
visit
was
returned
by
the
Middletons
’
dining
at
the
cottage
,
the
fact
was
ascertained
by
his
listening
to
her
again
.
It
must
be
so
.
She
was
perfectly
convinced
of
it
.
It
would
be
an
excellent
match
,
for
HE
was
rich
,
and
SHE
was
handsome
.
Mrs
.
Jennings
had
been
anxious
to
see
Colonel
Brandon
well
married
,
ever
since
her
connection
with
Sir
John
first
brought
him
to
her
knowledge
;
and
she
was
always
anxious
to
get
a
good
husband
for
every
pretty
girl
.
The
immediate
advantage
to
herself
was
by
no
means
inconsiderable
,
for
it
supplied
her
with
endless
jokes
against
them
both
.
At
the
park
she
laughed
at
the
colonel
,
and
in
the
cottage
at
Marianne
.
To
the
former
her
raillery
was
probably
,
as
far
as
it
regarded
only
himself
,
perfectly
indifferent
;
but
to
the
latter
it
was
at
first
incomprehensible
;
and
when
its
object
was
understood
,
she
hardly
knew
whether
most
to
laugh
at
its
absurdity
,
or
censure
its
impertinence
,
for
she
considered
it
as
an
unfeeling
reflection
on
the
colonel
’
s
advanced
years
,
and
on
his
forlorn
condition
as
an
old
bachelor
.
Mrs
.
Dashwood
,
who
could
not
think
a
man
five
years
younger
than
herself
,
so
exceedingly
ancient
as
he
appeared
to
the
youthful
fancy
of
her
daughter
,
ventured
to
clear
Mrs
.
Jennings
from
the
probability
of
wishing
to
throw
ridicule
on
his
age
.
"
But
at
least
,
Mama
,
you
cannot
deny
the
absurdity
of
the
accusation
,
though
you
may
not
think
it
intentionally
ill
-
natured
.
Colonel
Brandon
is
certainly
younger
than
Mrs
.
Jennings
,
but
he
is
old
enough
to
be
MY
father
;
and
if
he
were
ever
animated
enough
to
be
in
love
,
must
have
long
outlived
every
sensation
of
the
kind
.
It
is
too
ridiculous
!
When
is
a
man
to
be
safe
from
such
wit
,
if
age
and
infirmity
will
not
protect
him
?
"
"
Infirmity
!
"
said
Elinor
,
"
do
you
call
Colonel
Brandon
infirm
?
I
can
easily
suppose
that
his
age
may
appear
much
greater
to
you
than
to
my
mother
;
but
you
can
hardly
deceive
yourself
as
to
his
having
the
use
of
his
limbs
!
"
"
Did
not
you
hear
him
complain
of
the
rheumatism
?
and
is
not
that
the
commonest
infirmity
of
declining
life
?
"
