Mrs Harville says her husband feels a good deal on his poor sister's account; but, however, Louisa is a great favourite with both.

Indeed, Mrs Harville and I quite agree that we love her the better for having nursed her.

Charles wonders what Captain Wentworth will say; but if you remember, I never thought him attached to Louisa; I never could see anything of it.

And this is the end, you see, of Captain Benwick's being supposed to be an admirer of yours.

How Charles could take such a thing into his head was always incomprehensible to me.
