But he must never, never know that I ever realised it, for he is so good that it would distress him. I must just go on in my foolish way with him until I can get away.

"About Dido, sir?" "My dear Maurice, how can you possibly do that, when you refuse to tell my mother of our engagement?" She had Elinor in her arms, to everyone's great amazement, and Elinor, far from being reluctant, was as responsive as though Miss Jinny were her own mother. CHAPTER XXIV. A FINAL SURPRISE..
