He
was
not
ill
-
inclined
to
obey
this
request
,
for
,
though
his
heart
was
greatly
relieved
by
such
unlooked
-
for
mildness
,
it
was
not
just
at
that
moment
in
his
power
to
say
anything
to
the
purpose
.
Returning
in
silence
to
his
seat
,
therefore
,
he
remained
for
some
minutes
most
civilly
answering
all
Mrs
.
Morland
s
common
remarks
about
the
weather
and
roads
.
Catherine
meanwhile
the
anxious
,
agitated
,
happy
,
feverish
Catherine
said
not
a
word
;
but
her
glowing
cheek
and
brightened
eye
made
her
mother
trust
that
this
good
-
natured
visit
would
at
least
set
her
heart
at
ease
for
a
time
,
and
gladly
therefore
did
she
lay
aside
the
first
volume
of
The
Mirror
for
a
future
hour
.
Desirous
of
Mr
.
Morland
s
assistance
,
as
well
in
giving
encouragement
,
as
in
finding
conversation
for
her
guest
,
whose
embarrassment
on
his
father
s
account
she
earnestly
pitied
,
Mrs
.
Morland
had
very
early
dispatched
one
of
the
children
to
summon
him
;
but
Mr
.
Morland
was
from
home
and
being
thus
without
any
support
,
at
the
end
of
a
quarter
of
an
hour
she
had
nothing
to
say
.
After
a
couple
of
minutes
unbroken
silence
,
Henry
,
turning
to
Catherine
for
the
first
time
since
her
mother
s
entrance
,
asked
her
,
with
sudden
alacrity
,
if
Mr
.
and
Mrs
.
Allen
were
now
at
Fullerton
?
And
on
developing
,
from
amidst
all
her
perplexity
of
words
in
reply
,
the
meaning
,
which
one
short
syllable
would
have
given
,
immediately
expressed
his
intention
of
paying
his
respects
to
them
,
and
,
with
a
rising
colour
,
asked
her
if
she
would
have
the
goodness
to
show
him
the
way
.
You
may
see
the
house
from
this
window
,
sir
,
was
information
on
Sarah
s
side
,
which
produced
only
a
bow
of
acknowledgment
from
the
gentleman
,
and
a
silencing
nod
from
her
mother
;
for
Mrs

Morland
,
thinking
it
probable
,
as
a
secondary
consideration
in
his
wish
of
waiting
on
their
worthy
neighbours
,
that
he
might
have
some
explanation
to
give
of
his
father
s
behaviour
,
which
it
must
be
more
pleasant
for
him
to
communicate
only
to
Catherine
,
would
not
on
any
account
prevent
her
accompanying
him
.
They
began
their
walk
,
and
Mrs
.
Morland
was
not
entirely
mistaken
in
his
object
in
wishing
it
.
Some
explanation
on
his
father
s
account
he
had
to
give
;
but
his
first
purpose
was
to
explain
himself
,
and
before
they
reached
Mr
.
Allen
s
grounds
he
had
done
it
so
well
that
Catherine
did
not
think
it
could
ever
be
repeated
too
often
.
She
was
assured
of
his
affection
;
and
that
heart
in
return
was
solicited
,
which
,
perhaps
,
they
pretty
equally
knew
was
already
entirely
his
own
;
for
,
though
Henry
was
now
sincerely
attached
to
her
,
though
he
felt
and
delighted
in
all
the
excellencies
of
her
character
and
truly
loved
her
society
,
I
must
confess
that
his
affection
originated
in
nothing
better
than
gratitude
,
or
,
in
other
words
,
that
a
persuasion
of
her
partiality
for
him
had
been
the
only
cause
of
giving
her
a
serious
thought
.
It
is
a
new
circumstance
in
romance
,
I
acknowledge
,
and
dreadfully
derogatory
of
an
heroine
s
dignity
;
but
if
it
be
as
new
in
common
life
,
the
credit
of
a
wild
imagination
will
at
least
be
all
my
own
.
A
very
short
visit
to
Mrs
.
Allen
,
in
which
Henry
talked
at
random
,
without
sense
or
connection
,
and
Catherine
,
rapt
in
the
contemplation
of
her
own
unutterable
happiness
,
scarcely
opened
her
lips
,
dismissed
them
to
the
ecstasies
of
another
tete
-
a
-
tete
;
and
before
it
was
suffered
to
close
,
she
was
enabled
to
judge
how
far
he
was
sanctioned
by
parental
authority
in
his
present
application
.
On
his
return
from
Woodston
,
two
days
before
,
he
had
been
met
near
the
abbey
by
his
impatient
father
,
hastily
informed
in
angry
terms
of
Miss
Morland
s
departure
,
and
ordered
to
think
of
her
no
more
.
Such
was
the
permission
upon
which
he
had
now
offered
her
his
hand
.
The
affrighted
Catherine
,
amidst
all
the
terrors
of
expectation
,
as
she
listened
to
this
account
,
could
not
but
rejoice
in
the
kind
caution
with
which
Henry
had
saved
her
from
the
necessity
of
a
conscientious
rejection
,
by
engaging
her
faith
before
he
mentioned
the
subject
;
and
as
he
proceeded
to
give
the
particulars
,
and
explain
the
motives
of
his
father
s
conduct
,
her
feelings
soon
hardened
into
even
a
triumphant
delight
.
The
general
had
had
nothing
to
accuse
her
of
,
nothing
to
lay
to
her
charge
,
but
her
being
the
involuntary
,
unconscious
object
of
a
deception
which
his
pride
could
not
pardon
,
and
which
a
better
pride
would
have
been
ashamed
to
own
.
She
was
guilty
only
of
being
less
rich
than
he
had
supposed
her
to
be
.
Under
a
mistaken
persuasion
of
her
possessions
and
claims
,
he
had
courted
her
acquaintance
in
Bath
,
solicited
her
company
at
Northanger
,
and
designed
her
for
his
daughter
-
in
-
law
.

On
discovering
his
error
,
to
turn
her
from
the
house
seemed
the
best
,
though
to
his
feelings
an
inadequate
proof
of
his
resentment
towards
herself
,
and
his
contempt
of
her
family
.
John
Thorpe
had
first
misled
him
.
The
general
,
perceiving
his
son
one
night
at
the
theatre
to
be
paying
considerable
attention
to
Miss
Morland
,
had
accidentally
inquired
of
Thorpe
if
he
knew
more
of
her
than
her
name
.
Thorpe
,
most
happy
to
be
on
speaking
terms
with
a
man
of
General
Tilney
s
importance
,
had
been
joyfully
and
proudly
communicative
;
and
being
at
that
time
not
only
in
daily
expectation
of
Morland
s
engaging
Isabella
,
but
likewise
pretty
well
resolved
upon
marrying
Catherine
himself
,
his
vanity
induced
him
to
represent
the
family
as
yet
more
wealthy
than
his
vanity
and
avarice
had
made
him
believe
them
.
With
whomsoever
he
was
,
or
was
likely
to
be
connected
,
his
own
consequence
always
required
that
theirs
should
be
great
,
and
as
his
intimacy
with
any
acquaintance
grew
,
so
regularly
grew
their
fortune
.
The
expectations
of
his
friend
Morland
,
therefore
,
from
the
first
overrated
,
had
ever
since
his
introduction
to
Isabella
been
gradually
increasing
;
and
by
merely
adding
twice
as
much
for
the
grandeur
of
the
moment
,
by
doubling
what
he
chose
to
think
the
amount
of
Mr
.
Morland
s
preferment
,
trebling
his
private
fortune
,
bestowing
a
rich
aunt
,
and
sinking
half
the
children
,
he
was
able
to
represent
the
whole
family
to
the
general
in
a
most
respectable
light
.
For
Catherine
,
however
,
the
peculiar
object
of
the
general
s
curiosity
,
and
his
own
speculations
,
he
had
yet
something
more
in
reserve
,
and
the
ten
or
fifteen
thousand
pounds
which
her
father
could
give
her
would
be
a
pretty
addition
to
Mr
.
Allen
s
estate
.
Her
intimacy
there
had
made
him
seriously
determine
on
her
being
handsomely
legacied
hereafter
;
and
to
speak
of
her
therefore
as
the
almost
acknowledged
future
heiress
of
Fullerton
naturally
followed
.
Upon
such
intelligence
the
general
had
proceeded
;
for
never
had
it
occurred
to
him
to
doubt
its
authority
.
Thorpe
s
interest
in
the
family
,
by
his
sister
s
approaching
connection
with
one
of
its
members
,
and
his
own
views
on
another
(
circumstances
of
which
he
boasted
with
almost
equal
openness
)
,
seemed
sufficient
vouchers
for
his
truth
;
and
to
these
were
added
the
absolute
facts
of
the
Allens
being
wealthy
and
childless
,
of
Miss
Morland
s
being
under
their
care
,
and
as
soon
as
his
acquaintance
allowed
him
to
judge
of
their
treating
her
with
parental
kindness
.
His
resolution
was
soon
formed
.
Already
had
he
discerned
a
liking
towards
Miss
Morland
in
the
countenance
of
his
son
;
and
thankful
for
Mr
.
Thorpe
s
communication
,
he
almost
instantly
determined
to
spare
no
pains
in
weakening
his
boasted
interest
and
ruining
his
dearest
hopes
.
Catherine
herself
could
not
be
more
ignorant
at
the
time
of
all
this
,
than
his
own
children
.
