'Indeed, said Mrs. Dusautoy, anxious to console and encourage, as well as to talk the young step-mother out of her self-reproach, 'I do not think that if I had been my good aunt's own child, she would have been more likely to find out that anything was amiss.
"She may bring up and cut away her masts," said Jack, with a deep sigh; "it is her only chance." "The holding-ground may be better than we suppose," observed Higson, wishing to console him; "or there may be some opening up the bay which we could not discern; he has probably surveyed it."

Bonaparte's character presents many unaccountable incongruities.
