Tom
understood
his
father
’
s
thoughts
,
and
heartily
wishing
he
might
be
always
as
well
disposed
to
give
them
but
partial
expression
,
began
to
see
,
more
clearly
than
he
had
ever
done
before
,
that
there
might
be
some
ground
of
offence
,
that
there
might
be
some
reason
for
the
glance
his
father
gave
towards
the
ceiling
and
stucco
of
the
room
;
and
that
when
he
inquired
with
mild
gravity
after
the
fate
of
the
billiard
-
table
,
he
was
not
proceeding
beyond
a
very
allowable
curiosity
.
A
few
minutes
were
enough
for
such
unsatisfactory
sensations
on
each
side
;
and
Sir
Thomas
having
exerted
himself
so
far
as
to
speak
a
few
words
of
calm
approbation
in
reply
to
an
eager
appeal
of
Mr
.
Yates
,
as
to
the
happiness
of
the
arrangement
,
the
three
gentlemen
returned
to
the
drawing
-
room
together
,
Sir
Thomas
with
an
increase
of
gravity
which
was
not
lost
on
all
.
972
“
I
come
from
your
theatre
,
”
said
he
composedly
,
as
he
sat
down
;
“
I
found
myself
in
it
rather
unexpectedly
.
Its
vicinity
to
my
own
room
—
but
in
every
respect
,
indeed
,
it
took
me
by
surprise
,
as
I
had
not
the
smallest
suspicion
of
your
acting
having
assumed
so
serious
a
character
.
It
appears
a
neat
job
,
however
,
as
far
as
I
could
judge
by
candlelight
,
and
does
my
friend
Christopher
Jackson
credit
.
”
And
then
he
would
have
changed
the
subject
,
and
sipped
his
coffee
in
peace
over
domestic
matters
of
a
calmer
hue
;
but
Mr
.
Yates
,
without
discernment
to
catch
Sir
Thomas
’
s
meaning
,
or
diffidence
,
or
delicacy
,
or
discretion
enough
to
allow
him
to
lead
the
discourse
while
he
mingled
among
the
others
with
the
least
obtrusiveness
himself
,
would
keep
him
on
the
topic
of
the
theatre
,
would
torment
him
with
questions
and
remarks
relative
to
it
,
and
finally
would
make
him
hear
the
whole
history
of
his
disappointment
at
Ecclesford
.
Sir
Thomas
listened
most
politely
,
but
found
much
to
offend
his
ideas
of
decorum
,
and
confirm
his
ill
-
opinion
of
Mr
.
Yates
’
s
habits
of
thinking
,
from
the
beginning
to
the
end
of
the
story
;
and
when
it
was
over
,
could
give
him
no
other
assurance
of
sympathy
than
what
a
slight
bow
conveyed
.
973
“
This
was
,
in
fact
,
the
origin
of
our
acting
,
”
said
Tom
,
after
a
moment
’
s
thought
.
“
My
friend
Yates
brought
the
infection
from
Ecclesford
,
and
it
spread
—
as
those
things
always
spread
,
you
know
,
sir
—
the
faster
,
probably
,
from
your
having
so
often
encouraged
the
sort
of
thing
in
us
formerly
.
It
was
like
treading
old
ground
again
.

Mr

975
Yates
took
the
subject
from
his
friend
as
soon
as
possible
,
and
immediately
gave
Sir
Thomas
an
account
of
what
they
had
done
and
were
doing
:
told
him
of
the
gradual
increase
of
their
views
,
the
happy
conclusion
of
their
first
difficulties
,
and
present
promising
state
of
affairs
;
relating
everything
with
so
blind
an
interest
as
made
him
not
only
totally
unconscious
of
the
uneasy
movements
of
many
of
his
friends
as
they
sat
,
the
change
of
countenance
,
the
fidget
,
the
hem
!
of
unquietness
,
but
prevented
him
even
from
seeing
the
expression
of
the
face
on
which
his
own
eyes
were
fixed
—
from
seeing
Sir
Thomas
’
s
dark
brow
contract
as
he
looked
with
inquiring
earnestness
at
his
daughters
and
Edmund
,
dwelling
particularly
on
the
latter
,
and
speaking
a
language
,
a
remonstrance
,
a
reproof
,
which
he
felt
at
his
heart
.
Not
less
acutely
was
it
felt
by
Fanny
,
who
had
edged
back
her
chair
behind
her
aunt
’
s
end
of
the
sofa
,
and
,
screened
from
notice
herself
,
saw
all
that
was
passing
before
her
.
Such
a
look
of
reproach
at
Edmund
from
his
father
she
could
never
have
expected
to
witness
;
and
to
feel
that
it
was
in
any
degree
deserved
was
an
aggravation
indeed
.
Sir
Thomas
’
s
look
implied
,
“
On
your
judgment
,
Edmund
,
I
depended
;
what
have
you
been
about
?
”
She
knelt
in
spirit
to
her
uncle
,
and
her
bosom
swelled
to
utter
,
“
Oh
,
not
to
him
!
Look
so
to
all
the
others
,
but
not
to
him
!
”
976
Mr
.
Yates
was
still
talking
.
“
To
own
the
truth
,
Sir
Thomas
,
we
were
in
the
middle
of
a
rehearsal
when
you
arrived
this
evening
.
We
were
going
through
the
three
first
acts
,
and
not
unsuccessfully
upon
the
whole
.
977
Our
company
is
now
so
dispersed
,
from
the
Crawfords
being
gone
home
,
that
nothing
more
can
be
done
to
-
night
;
but
if
you
will
give
us
the
honour
of
your
company
to
-
morrow
evening
,
I
should
not
be
afraid
of
the
result
.
We
bespeak
your
indulgence
,
you
understand
,
as
young
performers
;
we
bespeak
your
indulgence
.
”

“
My
indulgence
shall
be
given
,
sir
,
”
replied
Sir
Thomas
gravely
,
“
but
without
any
other
rehearsal
.
”
And
with
a
relenting
smile
,
he
added
,
“
I
come
home
to
be
happy
and
indulgent
.
”
Then
turning
away
towards
any
or
all
of
the
rest
,
he
tranquilly
said
,
“
Mr
.
and
Miss
Crawford
were
mentioned
in
my
last
letters
from
Mansfield
.
Do
you
find
them
agreeable
acquaintance
?
”
979
Tom
was
the
only
one
at
all
ready
with
an
answer
,
but
he
being
entirely
without
particular
regard
for
either
,
without
jealousy
either
in
love
or
acting
,
could
speak
very
handsomely
of
both
.
“
Mr
.
Crawford
was
a
most
pleasant
,
gentleman
-
like
man
;
his
sister
a
sweet
,
pretty
,
elegant
,
lively
girl
.
”
980
Mr
.
Rushworth
could
be
silent
no
longer
.
“
I
do
not
say
he
is
not
gentleman
-
like
,
considering
;
but
you
should
tell
your
father
he
is
not
above
five
feet
eight
,
or
he
will
be
expecting
a
well
-
looking
man
.
