The
Miss
Steeles
,
as
she
expected
,
had
now
all
the
benefit
of
these
jokes
,
and
in
the
eldest
of
them
they
raised
a
curiosity
to
know
the
name
of
the
gentleman
alluded
to
,
which
,
though
often
impertinently
expressed
,
was
perfectly
of
a
piece
with
her
general
inquisitiveness
into
the
concerns
of
their
family
752
But
Sir
John
did
not
sport
long
with
the
curiosity
which
he
delighted
to
raise
,
for
he
had
at
least
as
much
pleasure
in
telling
the
name
,
as
Miss
Steele
had
in
hearing
it
.
753
"
His
name
is
Ferrars
,
"
said
he
,
in
a
very
audible
whisper
;
"
but
pray
do
not
tell
it
,
for
it
s
a
great
secret
.

"
Ferrars
!
"
repeated
Miss
Steele
;
"
Mr
.
Ferrars
is
the
happy
man
,
is
he
?
What
!
your
sister
-
in
-
law
s
brother
,
Miss
Dashwood
?
a
very
agreeable
young
man
to
be
sure
;
I
know
him
very
well
.
"
755
"
How
can
you
say
so
,
Anne
?
"
cried
Lucy
,
who
generally
made
an
amendment
to
all
her
sister
s
assertions
.
"
Though
we
have
seen
him
once
or
twice
at
my
uncle
s
,
it
is
rather
too
much
to
pretend
to
know
him
very
well
.
"
756
Elinor
heard
all
this
with
attention
and
surprise
.
"
And
who
was
this
uncle
?
Where
did
he
live
?
How
came
they
acquainted
?
"
She
wished
very
much
to
have
the
subject
continued
,
though
she
did
not
chuse
to
join
in
it
herself
;
but
nothing
more
of
it
was
said
,
and
for
the
first
time
in
her
life
,
she
thought
Mrs
.
Jennings
deficient
either
in
curiosity
after
petty
information
,
or
in
a
disposition
to
communicate
it
.
The
manner
in
which
Miss
Steele
had
spoken
of
Edward
,
increased
her
curiosity
;
for
it
struck
her
as
being
rather
ill
-
natured
,
and
suggested
the
suspicion
of
that
lady
s
knowing
,
or
fancying
herself
to
know
something
to
his
disadvantage
.
But
her
curiosity
was
unavailing
,
for
no
farther
notice
was
taken
of
Mr
.
Ferrars
s
name
by
Miss
Steele
when
alluded
to
,
or
even
openly
mentioned
by
Sir
John
.
757
Marianne
,
who
had
never
much
toleration
for
any
thing
like
impertinence
,
vulgarity
,
inferiority
of
parts
,
or
even
difference
of
taste
from
herself
,
was
at
this
time
particularly
ill
-
disposed
,
from
the
state
of
her
spirits
,
to
be
pleased
with
the
Miss
Steeles
,
or
to
encourage
their
advances
;
and
to
the
invariable
coldness
of
her
behaviour
towards
them
,
which
checked
every
endeavour
at
intimacy
on
their
side
,
Elinor
principally
attributed
that
preference
of
herself
which
soon
became
evident
in
the
manners
of
both
,
but
especially
of
Lucy
,
who
missed
no
opportunity
of
engaging
her
in
conversation
,
or
of
striving
to
improve
their
acquaintance
by
an
easy
and
frank
communication
of
her
sentiments
.

Lucy
was
naturally
clever
;
her
remarks
were
often
just
and
amusing
;
and
as
a
companion
for
half
an
hour
Elinor
frequently
found
her
agreeable
;
but
her
powers
had
received
no
aid
from
education
:
she
was
ignorant
and
illiterate
;
and
her
deficiency
of
all
mental
improvement
,
her
want
of
information
in
the
most
common
particulars
,
could
not
be
concealed
from
Miss
Dashwood
,
in
spite
of
her
constant
endeavour
to
appear
to
advantage
.
759
Elinor
saw
,
and
pitied
her
for
,
the
neglect
of
abilities
which
education
might
have
rendered
so
respectable
;
but
she
saw
,
with
less
tenderness
of
feeling
,
the
thorough
want
of
delicacy
,
of
rectitude
,
and
integrity
of
mind
,
which
her
attentions
,
her
assiduities
,
her
flatteries
at
the
Park
betrayed
;
and
she
could
have
no
lasting
satisfaction
in
the
company
of
a
person
who
joined
insincerity
with
ignorance
;
whose
want
of
instruction
prevented
their
meeting
in
conversation
on
terms
of
equality
,
and
whose
conduct
toward
others
made
every
shew
of
attention
and
deference
towards
herself
perfectly
valueless
.
760
"
You
will
think
my
question
an
odd
one
,
I
dare
say
,
"
said
Lucy
to
her
one
day
,
as
they
were
walking
together
from
the
park
to
the
cottage
"
but
pray
,
are
you
personally
acquainted
with
your
sister
-
in
-
law
s
mother
,
Mrs
.
Ferrars
?
