And - pupils enlarging Written by Tracy W (10/5/2005 5:53 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Yes, sticklers for etiquette they may have been..., penned by Line

Apparently when we see something we like our pupils enlargen, an automatic reaction, not controllable except maybe by yogics and the like. And other people can pick up on this more or less consciously. Apparently Chinese jade wholesale buyers used to wear dark glasses so the sellers could not see when they were impressed by a very fine piece of jade.

Consequently even the most perfect gentleman may not be able to avoid giving some signs of admiration. Although maybe Mr Tilney could pretend the eye-widening was over the quality of her muslim rather than more personal attractions. :)
