But there are certain points in regard to which I want to be set right with Miss March.

And now I wish you to understand me, Mr Keswick.

I speak to you, not only as a generous and honorable man, which I have found you to be, but as a rival.

I cannot believe that you would be willing to profit by my present disadvantages, and, as I have said two or three times before, it would certainly be for your interest, as a suitor for the lady, to have this matter settled." "Wouldn't it be better, then," said Junius, "if I were to go immediately, and speak to her for myself ?" "No," said Lawrence, "I don't think that would settle the affair at all.
From what I understand of your relations with Miss March, she knows you are her lover, and yet she neither accepts nor declines you.

If you were to go to her now, it is not likely she would give you any definite answer.
