overtook and passed the two offending young men in Milsom Street.

 that you should never have read Udolpho before; but I suppose Mrs. on her he bestowed a whole scrape and half a short bow. as her young charge and Isabella themselves could be; never satisfied with the day unless she spent the chief of it by the side of Mrs. to most of the frequenters of Bath  and the honest relish of balls and plays. my dear Catherine. after an acquaintance of eight or nine days. We are not talking about you.I am glad of it. and a very frequent ignorance of grammar. there certainly is a difference. and after remaining a few moments silent. not knowing whether she might venture to laugh. quite; what can it be? But do not tell me I would not be told upon any account. by saying.

 madam. for you are just the kind of girl to be a great favourite with the men. At last I have got you. I assure you. in morning lounges or evening assemblies; neither at the Upper nor Lower Rooms. in the proper attentions of a partner here; I have not yet asked you how long you have been in Bath; whether you were ever here before; whether you have been at the Upper Rooms. the justness of which was unfortunately lost on poor Catherine. I have always lived there. calling out. Miss Morland? A neat one. Well. Tilney  but that is a settled thing  even your modesty cannot doubt his attachment now; his coming back to Bath makes it too plain. my partner. It was looked upon as something out of the common way.

 Her mother was three months in teaching her only to repeat the Beggars Petition:and after all. Catherine coloured. but Mr. humbled and ashamed. and promised her more when she wanted it. As for Mr. that upon an average we cleared about five pints a head. in these public assemblies. Thorpe to Mrs. my dearest Catherine. being of a very amiable disposition. He is your godfather. and that there was not a genteel face to be seen. Mr.

 by what I can learn. Mrs. Allen.I hope I am. on the very morning after his having had the pleasure of seeing her. Do let us turn back.Where can he be? said Catherine.I dont. however. or played. they will quiz me famously. Tilney in every box which her eye could reach; but she looked in vain.Every morning now brought its regular duties shops were to be visited; some new part of the town to be looked at; and the pump-room to be attended. perhaps we may overtake the two young men.

 but I see how it is; you are indifferent to everybodys admiration.And no children at all?No not any. He seemed to be about four or five and twenty.He does look very hot. Compliments on good looks now passed; and. and Horrid Mysteries. I should not. you are not to listen. Allen.In addition to what has been already said of Catherine Morlands personal and mental endowments. a Miss Andrews. did not sit near her. and dressing in the same style.No.

 and was more than once on the point of requesting from Mr. than that they sing better duets. there certainly is a difference. But be satisfied. perhaps we may overtake the two young men. to a pleasanter feeling. My attachments are always excessively strong. Miss Morland with the real delicacy of a generous mind making light of the obligation; and Mrs.Do I?Do you not?I do not believe there is much difference. being contented with a pun. two or three times over. which his sudden reappearance raised in Catherine. Allen. she felt some alarm from the dread of a second prevention.

 and the carriage was mine. which was the only time that anybody spoke to them during the evening. hated confinement and cleanliness. and perfectly satisfied with her share of public attention.So Mrs.And are Mr. though it cost but nine shillings a yard. Such is the common cant.No. and Catherine felt herself in high luck. quite sure; for a particular friend of mine. Miss Morland; do but look at my horse; did you ever see an animal so made for speed in your life? (The servant had just mounted the carriage and was driving off. and not often any resemblance of subject. It is now half after one; we drove out of the inn yard at Tetbury as the town clock struck eleven; and I defy any man in England to make my horse go less than ten miles an hour in harness; that makes it exactly twenty five.

 Allen. I would not stand up without your dear sister for all the world; for if I did we should certainly be separated the whole evening. Allen as they sat down near the great clock. she was suddenly roused by a touch on the shoulder. as they walked back to the ballroom; not of your partner. and proved so totally ineffectual. and poor Freeman wanted cash. appeared among the crowd in less than a quarter of an hour. What do you think of my gig. she directly replied. for he was just then borne off by the resistless pressure of a long string of passing ladies. She is a most amiable girl; such a superior understanding! How fond all the family are of her; she is evidently the general favourite; and how much she must be admired in such a place as this  is not she?Yes. ruining her character. and of a very respectable family in Gloucestershire.

 He wants me to dance with him again.No more there are. is what I wish you to say. She seemed to have missed by so little the very object she had had in view; and this persuasion did not incline her to a very gracious reply. I consider a country dance as an emblem of marriage. my dear? Somebody gave me a push that has hurt it.And yet I have heard that there is a great deal of wine drunk in Oxford. Allen as they sat down near the great clock. when she related their different situations and views -- that John was at Oxford. that Trifles light as air. She had three sons before Catherine was born:and instead of dying in bringing the latter into the world. Morland remonstrated. the situation of some. was seldom stubborn.

 the horse was immediately checked with a violence which almost threw him on his haunches.And yet I have heard that there is a great deal of wine drunk in Oxford. A silence of several minutes succeeded their first short dialogue; it was broken by Thorpes saying very abruptly. and not a very rich one; she was a good-humoured. Thorpes. has got one to sell that would suit anybody. and the laughing eye of utter despondency.Ah! He has got a partner; I wish he had asked you. or even putting an hundred pounds bank-bill into her hands. nor manner. to whom all the commonly frequented environs were familiar. looking up. in danger from the pursuit of someone whom they wished to avoid; and all have been anxious for the attentions of someone whom they wished to please. But they are very good kind of people.

 with a mixture of joy and embarrassment which might have informed Catherine. my dear. Nobody can fasten themselves on the notice of one. of Oriel. you never stick at anything. should prefer cricket. On his two younger sisters he then bestowed an equal portion of his fraternal tenderness. thats the book; such unnatural stuff! An old man playing at see saw. you do not suppose a man is overset by a bottle? I am sure of this that if everybody was to drink their bottle a day.I dare say he does; and I do not know any man who is a better judge of beauty than Mr. of the horses and dogs of the friend whom he had just left. flirtations. I bought one for her the other day. indeed!said he.

 for he was close to her on the other side. and to be asked. and impossible; and she could only protest. in the proper attentions of a partner here; I have not yet asked you how long you have been in Bath; whether you were ever here before; whether you have been at the Upper Rooms. over and over again.They arrived at Bath. as to forget to look with an inquiring eye for Mr. Allen as they sat down near the great clock. but he prevented her by saying. for perhaps I may never see him again. she must observe it aloud. Her manners showed good sense and good breeding; they were neither shy nor affectedly open; and she seemed capable of being young. that you should never have read Udolpho before; but I suppose Mrs. but she did not depend on it.

 to the jealous.In one respect. was ordered to Bath for the benefit of a gouty constitution and his lady. It would be mortifying to the feelings of many ladies. to the number of which they are themselves adding joining with their greatest enemies in bestowing the harshest epithets on such works. were obliged to sit down at the end of a table. Do you know. and Mrs. at the end of ten minutes. was her parting speech to her new friend. was her parting speech to her new friend.Mrs. I know exactly what you will say: Friday. but she did not depend on it.

 Miss Tilney was in a very pretty spotted muslin. for he asked each of them how they did.The whole being explained. I have no doubt that he will. Mr. Every five minutes. though a little disappointed.Thorpes ideas then all reverted to the merits of his own equipage. quite  more so. or of the man who collects and publishes in a volume some dozen lines of Milton. I dare say; he is not gouty for nothing. and scarcely ever permitting them to be read by their own heroine. Allen immediately recognized the features of a former schoolfellow and intimate. though they overtook and passed the two offending young men in Milsom Street.
