The dean and the barrister both said what they ought.

The dean remarked that these dear parents ought not to sorrow at losing a daughter, but rejoice at finding a son.
The barrister pointed out that as the bride was only expected to move into the next house but one after her marriage, all talk of parting was really quite absurd.

The vicar did not say anything; he rarely did when his wife was present.

Then Mrs.Moore became more composed, and put a ring on her daughter's finger.

The curate did not see the ring at the moment.
