'I don't see why you shouldn't wear pretty things if you've got the money to pay for them,' said Mrs.Robert.

Mrs.
Daniel shook her head, but on the afternoon before the wedding she bought an additional ribbon.
Caldigate came over from Folking that morning attended by one John Jones, an old college friend, as his best man.

The squire was not at the wedding, but on the day before he was with Hester at The Nurseries, telling her that she should be his dear daughter, and at the same time giving her a whole set of wicked but very pretty worldly gauds.

'Upon my word, my dear, he has been very gracious,' said Mrs.Robert, when she saw them.

'I quite envy the girls being married nowadays, because they get such pretty things.' 'They are very pretty,' said Hester.
'And must have cost, I'm afraid to say how much money.' 'I suppose it means to say that he will love me, and therefore I am so glad to have them!' But the squire, though he did mean to say that he would love her, did not come to the wedding.
