Indeed; 'perceiving how her eye was employed' is crucial too Written by Tom P2 (3/21/2009 5:55 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Catherine isn't being critical. It's just ..., penned by Reeba

I'd never noticed the connection, until Adrian pointed it out, between perceiving how her eye was employed and the onset of the general's competitive curiosity about the Allen's wealth. The general's a face-reader but not a mind-reader, and isn't used to visitors looking so disappointed with his elegant furniture, handsome fireplace, pretty ornaments, and clear light windows.
