"I am so glad there was no one but you here. Please do not tell anybody." "But do you know, child, that you are still as pale as ever you can be? And they are coming back from the river.

Out of these the individual selects his specialties in admiration, according to his nature and training.

She was their earliest visitor in their settled life; and Captain Wentworth, by putting her in the way of recovering her husband's property in the West Indies, by writing for her, acting for her, and seeing her through all the petty difficulties of the case with the activity and exertion of a fearless man and a determined friend, fully requited the services which she had rendered, or ever meant to render, to his wife.
