Anne herself would have found the mortifications of it more than she foresaw, and to Sir Walter's feelings they must have been dreadful.

And with regard to Anne's dislike of Bath, she considered it as a prejudice and mistake arising, first, from the circumstance of her having been three years at school there, after her mother's death; and secondly, from her happening to be not in perfectly good spirits the only winter which she had afterwards spent there with herself.
Lady Russell was fond of Bath, in short, and disposed to think it must suit them all; and as to her young friend's health, by passing all the warm months with her at Kellynch Lodge, every danger would be avoided; and it was in fact, a change which must do both health and spirits good.

Anne had been too little from home, too little seen.

Her spirits were not high.

A larger society would improve them.
