"
Is
she
not
better
then
?
"
"
She
never
spoke
but
once
,
and
I
asked
her
if
she
felt
a
little
more
easy
,
and
she
told
me
to
hold
my
stupid
tongue
.
Oh
,
Miss
B.
,
I
never
thought
to
have
seen
this
day
!
"
And
the
water-works
again
began
to
play
.
"
What
sort
of
a
person
is
this
Miss
Sharp
,
Firkin
?
I
little
thought
,
while
enjoying
my
Christmas
revels
in
the
elegant
home
of
my
firm
friends
,
the
Reverend
Lionel
Delamere
and
his
amiable
lady
,
to
find
a
stranger
had
taken
my
place
in
the
affections
of
my
dearest
,
my
still
dearest
Matilda
!
"
Miss
Briggs
,
it
will
be
seen
by
her
language
,
was
of
a
literary
and
sentimental
turn
,
and
had
once
published
a
volume
of
poems
--
"
Trills
of
the
Nightingale
"
--
by
subscription
.
"
Miss
B.
,
they
are
all
infatyated
about
that
young
woman
,
"
Firkin
replied
.
"
Sir
Pitt
would
n't
have
let
her
go
,
but
he
dared
n't
refuse
Miss
Crawley
anything
.
Mrs.
Bute
at
the
Rectory
jist
as
bad
--
never
happy
out
of
her
sight
.
The
Capting
quite
wild
about
her
.
Mr.
Crawley
mortial
jealous
.
Since
Miss
C.
was
took
ill
,
she
wo
n't
have
nobody
near
her
but
Miss
Sharp
,
I
ca
n't
tell
for
where
nor
for
why
;
and
I

bewidged
everybody

"
Rebecca
passed
that
night
in
constant
watching
upon
Miss
Crawley
;
the
next
night
the
old
lady
slept
so
comfortably
,
that
Rebecca
had
time
for
several
hours
'
comfortable
repose
herself
on
the
sofa
,
at
the
foot
of
her
patroness
's
bed
;
very
soon
,
Miss
Crawley
was
so
well
that
she
sat
up
and
laughed
heartily
at
a
perfect
imitation
of
Miss
Briggs
and
her
grief
,
which
Rebecca
described
to
her
.
Briggs
'
weeping
snuffle
,
and
her
manner
of
using
the
handkerchief
,
were
so
completely
rendered
that
Miss
Crawley
became
quite
cheerful
,
to
the
admiration
of
the
doctors
when
they
visited
her
,
who
usually
found
this
worthy
woman
of
the
world
,
when
the
least
sickness
attacked
her
,
under
the
most
abject
depression
and
terror
of
death
.
Captain
Crawley
came
every
day
,
and
received
bulletins
from
Miss
Rebecca
respecting
his
aunt
's
health
.
This
improved
so
rapidly
,
that
poor
Briggs
was
allowed
to
see
her
patroness
;
and
persons
with
tender
hearts
may
imagine
the
smothered
emotions
of
that
sentimental
female
,
and
the
affecting
nature
of
the
interview
.
Miss
Crawley
liked
to
have
Briggs
in
a
good
deal
soon
.
Rebecca
used
to
mimic
her
to
her
face
with
the
most
admirable
gravity
,
thereby
rendering
the
imitation
doubly
piquant
to
her
worthy
patroness
.
The
causes
which
had
led
to
the
deplorable
illness
of
Miss
Crawley
,
and
her
departure
from
her
brother
's
house
in
the
country
,
were
of
such
an
unromantic
nature
that
they
are
hardly
fit
to
be
explained
in
this
genteel
and
sentimental
novel
.
For
how
is
it
possible
to
hint
of
a
delicate
female
,
living
in
good
society
,
that
she
ate
and
drank
too
much
,
and
that
a
hot
supper
of
lobsters
profusely
enjoyed
at
the
Rectory
was
the
reason
of
an
indisposition
which
Miss
Crawley
herself
persisted
was
solely
attributable
to
the
dampness
of
the
weather
?
The
attack
was
so
sharp
that
Matilda
--
as
his
Reverence
expressed
it
--
was
very
nearly
"
off
the
hooks
"
;
all
the
family
were
in
a
fever
of
expectation
regarding
the
will
,
and
Rawdon
Crawley
was
making
sure
of
at
least
forty
thousand
pounds
before
the
commencement
of
the
London
season
.
Mr.
Crawley
sent
over
a
choice
parcel
of
tracts
,
to
prepare
her
for
the
change
from
Vanity
Fair
and
Park
Lane
for
another
world
;
but
a
good
doctor
from
Southampton
being
called
in
in
time
,
vanquished
the
lobster
which
was
so
nearly
fatal
to
her
,
and
gave
her
sufficient
strength
to
enable
her
to
return
to
London
.
The
Baronet
did
not
disguise
his
exceeding
mortification
at
the
turn
which
affairs
took
.
While
everybody
was
attending
on
Miss
Crawley
,
and
messengers
every
hour
from
the
Rectory
were
carrying
news
of
her
health
to
the
affectionate
folks
there
,
there
was
a
lady
in
another
part
of
the
house
,
being
exceedingly
ill
,
of
whom
no
one
took
any
notice
at
all
;
and
this
was
the
lady
of
Crawley
herself
.
