young Lady at the other end of the Bench was doing Penance�察�was 

indubitable。   The   difference   in   Miss   Denham¨s   countenance�察  �the 

change      from     Miss    Denham       sitting   in  cold    Grandeur      in   Mrs。 

Parker¨s   Drawing´room   to   be   kept   from   silence   by   the   efforts   of 

others�察  �to  Miss   D。   at  Lady  D。¨s   Elbow�察  �listening   and   talking   with 

smiling   attention   or   solicitous   eagerness�察  �was   very   striking!and 

very    amusing!or         very    melancholy�察     �just   as  Satire    or   Morality 

might  prevail。   Miss   Denham¨s Character  was  pretty  well   decided 

with     Charlotte。    Sir   Edward¨s      required     longer    Observation。       He 

surprised   her   by   quitting   Clara   immediately   on   their   all   joining 

and agreeing to walk�察�and by addressing his attentions entirely to 

herself。!Stationing   himself   close   by   her�察  �he   seemed   to   mean   to 

detach her as much as possible from the rest of the Party and   to 

give   her   the   whole   of   his   Conversation。   He   began�察  �in   a   tone   of 

great Taste and Feeling�察�to talk of the Sea and the Sea shore!and 

ran with Energy through all the usual Phrases employed in praise 

of their Sublimity�察  �and descriptive   of  the undescribable  Emotions 

they   excite   in   the   Mind   of   Sensibility。!The   terrific   Grandeur   of 

the Ocean in a Storm�察�its glassy surface in a calm�察�its Gulls and its 

Samphire�察       �and    the    deep     fathoms     of   its   Abysses�察    �its   quick 

vicissitudes�察     �its  direful   Deceptions�察     �its  Mariners     tempting      it  in 

Sunshine       and    overwhelmed        by   the   sudden     Tempest�察     �All   were 

eagerly and fluently touched�察�rather commonplace perhaps!but 

doing   very   well   from   the   Lips   of   a   handsome   Sir   Edward�察�and 

she   could   not   but   think   him   a   Man   of   Feeling!till   he   began   to 

stagger       her    by    the    number       of   his    Quotations�察      �and     the 

bewilderment of some of his sentences。!`Do you remember�察� said

the   beginning   at   this   moment!But!you   cannot   have   forgotten

Delicious�     �Delicious� �Had        he   written   nothing     more�察   �he  would

address to Parental affection!

But while we are on the subject of Poetry�察�what think you Miss H。

one� �If      ever    there    was    a  Man     who   felt�察  �it   was    Burns。! 

Montgomery has all the   Fire   of  Poetry�察  �Wordsworth  has   the   true 

soul   of   it!Campbell   in   his   pleasures      of  Hope    has  touched   the 

extreme      of  our   Sensations!^Like          Angel¨s    visits�察 �few   and   far

Scott   has   a  fault�察  �it  is  the  want    of  Passion。    Tender�察    �Elegant�察�

Descriptive!but  Tame。!The   Man   who   cannot   do   justice   to   the 

attributes of Woman is my contempt。!Sometimes indeed a   flash 

of   feeling    seems    to  irradiate    him!as      in   the   Lines   we    were

delight�察� said Charlotte as soon as she had time to speak�察 �but I am 

not   poetic   enough   to   separate   a   Man¨s   Poetry   entirely   from   his 

Character�察�and           poor     Burns¨s     known       Irregularities�察    �greatly 

interrupt      my    enjoyment       of   his   Lines。!I      have    difficulty    in 

depending on the Truth of his Feelings as a Lover。 I have not faith 

in the sincerity of the affections of a Man of his Description。 He felt

Susceptibilities might lead him into some Aberrations!But who is
