1Anne was obliged to turn away, to rise, to walk to a distant table, and, leaning there in pretended employment, try to
2subdue the feelings this picture excited. For a few moments her imagination and her heart were bewitched. The idea of
3becoming what her mother had been; of having the precious name of "Lady Elliot" first revived in herself; of being
4restored to Kellynch, calling it her home again, her home for ever, was a charm which she could not immediately resist.
5Lady Russell said not another word, willing to leave the matter to its own operation; and believing that, could Mr
6Elliot at that moment with propriety have spoken for himself!--she believed, in short, what Anne did not believe. The
7same image of Mr Elliot speaking for himself brought Anne to composure again. The charm of Kellynch and of "Lady Elliot"
8all faded away. She never could accept him. And it was not only that her feelings were still adverse to any man save
9one; her judgement, on a serious consideration of the possibilities of such a case, was against Mr Elliot. Though they
10had now been acquainted a month, she could not be satisfied that she really knew his character. That he was a sensible
11man, an agreeable man, that he talked well, professed good opinions, seemed to judge properly and as a man of principle,
12this was all clear enough. He certainly knew what was right, nor could she fix on any one article of moral duty
13evidently transgressed; but yet she would have been afraid to answer for his conduct. She distrusted the past, if not
14the present. The names which occasionally dropt of former associates, the allusions to former practices and pursuits,
15suggested suspicions not favourable of what he had been. She saw that there had been bad habits; that Sunday travelling
16had been a common thing; that there had been a period of his life (and probably not a short one) when he had been, at
17least, careless in all serious matters; and, though he might now think very differently, who could answer for the true
18sentiments of a clever, cautious man, grown old enough to appreciate a fair character? How could it ever be ascertained
19that his mind was truly cleansed? Mr Elliot was rational, discreet, polished, but he was not open. There was never any
20burst of feeling, any warmth of indignation or delight, at the evil or good of others. This, to Anne, was a decided
21imperfection. Her early impressions were incurable. She prized the frank, the open-hearted, the eager character beyond
22all others. Warmth and enthusiasm did captivate her still. She felt that she could so much more depend upon the
23sincerity of those who sometimes looked or said a careless or a hasty thing, than of those whose presence of mind never
24varied, whose tongue never slipped. Mr Elliot was too generally agreeable. Various as were the tempers in her father's
25house, he pleased them all. He endured too well, stood too well with every body. He had spoken to her with some degree
26of openness of Mrs Clay; had appeared completely to see what Mrs Clay was about, and to hold her in contempt; and yet
27Mrs Clay found him as agreeable as any body. Lady Russell saw either less or more than her young friend, for she saw
28nothing to excite distrust. She could not imagine a man more exactly what he ought to be than Mr Elliot; nor did she
29ever enjoy a sweeter feeling than the hope of seeing him receive the hand of her beloved Anne in Kellynch church, in the
30course of the following autumn.
