Pagina 111 - So far, so good. I shall never rest till I have discovered, in the first place, where the dear creature puts her letters ; and in the next till I have got her to a play, to a concert, or to take an airing with me out of town for a day or two.

Pagina 262 - with me: and appealed by Dorcas to his behaviour to me last night; as if, as I sent him word by her, he thought he had a merit in being unexceptionable. However, I repeated my promise to meet him as early as he pleased in the morning, or to breakfast with him.
Pagina 199 - NOT one word will I reply to such an abandoned wretch, as thou hast shewn thyself to be in thine of last night. I will leave the lady to the protection of that Power who only can work miracles; and to her own merits. Still I have hopes that these will save her.
Pagina 141 - so well what she did ; and who could look so far into consequences, that we thought she would have died rather than have done as she has done ! Her known character for prudence leaves her absolutely without excuse. How then can I offer to plead for her, if, through motherly indulgence, I would forgive her
