  1. I have learned very little more than what was foreseen and foreplanned in my own mind.
  2. I would love to share all, but I will not repeat the details of a conversation that was heard from listening at a door.
  3. It was lucky for us that she would tell anything without being asked, for nothing would otherwise have been learned.
  4. Mrs. Jennings immediately whispered to me, "Get it all out of her my dear. She will tell you anything if you ask."
  5. I took a walk in Kensington Gardens with Mrs. Jennings. I found myself, with some surprise, accosted by Miss Steele.
  6. My heart breaks for Edward - braving his mother's threats for a woman who could not reward him.
  7. @marianne_dash I am so grateful, my dear sister, that all confidence between us has been restored to its proper state.
  8. @marianne_dash If I had not been bound to silence, perhaps nothing could have kept me entirely from openly showing that I was VERY unhappy.
  9. @marianne_dash If you can think me capable of ever feeling, surely you may suppose that I have suffered NOW.
  10. @marianne_dash I have suffered the punishment of an attachment without enjoying its advantages - and this has not been my only unhappiness
  11. @marianne_dash I have known myself to be divided from Edward forever, & have had to contend against the unkindness of his family
  12. @marianne_dash I have endeavoured to appear indifferent, so that I would not cause suspicions, or make you and Mama unhappy.
  13. @marianne_dash For four months I have had all this hanging on my mind without being at liberty to speak of it to a single creature
  14. @marianne_dash I understand you. You do not suppose that I have ever felt much.
  15. Edward will marry Lucy; & time and habit will teach him to forget that he ever thought another superior to her.
  16. @marianne_dash ...depending entirely on any particular person, it is not meant-It is not fit-it is not possible that it should be so.
  17. @marianne_dash after all that is bewitching in the idea of a single & constant attachment & all that can be said of one's happiness...
  18. @marianne_dash I would not have you suffer on my account, for I assure you I no longer suffer materially myself. I wish Edward very happy.
  19. @marianne_dash Yes. But I did not love only him; I was glad to spare my family from knowing how much I felt.
  20. @marianne_dash I felt that I was doing my duty. My promise to Lucy obliged me to be secret.
