Marianne

can

never

keep

long

from

that

instrument

you

know

,

ma

’

am

,

"

said

Elinor

,

endeavouring

to

smooth

away

the

offence

;

"

and

I

do

not

much

wonder

at

it

;

for

it

is

the

very

best

toned

piano

-

forte

I

ever

heard

.

"

The

remaining

five

were

now

to

draw

their

cards

.

"

Perhaps

,

"

continued

Elinor

,

"

if

I

should

happen

to

cut

out

,

I

may

be

of

some

use

to

Miss

Lucy

Steele

,

in

rolling

her

papers

for

her

;

and

there

is

so

much

still

to

be

done

to

the

basket

,

that

it

must

be

impossible

I

think

for

her

labour

singly

,

to

finish

it

this

evening

.

I

should

like

the

work

exceedingly

,

if

she

would

allow

me

a

share

in

it

.

"

Indeed

I

shall

be

very

much

obliged

to

you

for

your

help

,

"

cried

Lucy

,

"

for

I

find

there

is

more

to

be

done

to

it

than

I

thought

there

was

;

and

it

would

be

a

shocking

thing

to

disappoint

dear

Annamaria

after

all

"

"

Oh

!

that

would

be

terrible

,

indeed

,

"

said

Miss

Steele

—

"

Dear

little

soul

,

how

I

do

love

her

!

"

"

You

are

very

kind

,

"

said

Lady

Middleton

to

Elinor

;

"

and

as

you

really

like

the

work

,

perhaps

you

will

be

as

well

pleased

not

to

cut

in

till

another

rubber

,

or

will

you

take

your

chance

now

?

Elinor

joyfully

profited

by

the

first

of

these

proposals

,

and

thus

by

a

little

of

that

address

which

Marianne

could

never

condescend

to

practise

,

gained

her

own

end

,

and

pleased

Lady

Middleton

at

the

same

time

.

Lucy

made

room

for

her

with

ready

attention

,

and

the

two

fair

rivals

were

thus

seated

side

by

side

at

the

same

table

,

and

,

with

the

utmost

harmony

,

engaged

in

forwarding

the

same

work

.

The

pianoforte

at

which

Marianne

,

wrapped

up

in

her

own

music

and

her

own

thoughts

,

had

by

this

time

forgotten

that

any

body

was

in

the

room

besides

herself

,

was

luckily

so

near

them

that

Miss

Dashwood

now

judged

she

might

safely

,

under

the

shelter

of

its

noise

,

introduce

the

interesting

subject

,

without

any

risk

of

being

heard

at

the

card

-

table

.

In

a

firm

,

though

cautious

tone

,

Elinor

thus

began

.

"

I

should

be

undeserving

of

the

confidence

you

have

honoured

me

with

,

if

I

felt

no

desire

for

its

continuance

,

or

no

farther

curiosity

on

its

subject

.

I

will

not

apologize

therefore

for

bringing

it

forward

again

.
