LOL lines this week   Written by Line (10/15/2005 3:54 p.m.)
Are you new?

I find there are several LOL lines in this week's chapters:

ch.14: [Mary's stay at Lyme] joined to the sense of being so very useful, had made really an agreeable fortnight.

The Musgroves came back..., bringing with them Mrs. Harville's little children, to improve the noise of Uppercross, and lessen that of Lyme.

If [Mr. Elliot] really sought to reconcile himself like a dutiful branch, he must be forgiven for having dismembered himself from the paternal tree.

ch.15: With all the state which a butler and footboy could give, Mr. Elliot was ushered into the room.

ch.16: The Bath paper one morning announced the arrival of the Dowager Viscountess Dalrymple, and her daughter, the Honourable Miss Carteret; and all the comfort of No. -- Camden Place was swept away for many days; for the Dalrymples (in Anne's opinion, most unfortunately) were cousins of the Elliots; and the agony was how to introduce themselves properly.

"Good company requires only birth, education, and manners, and with regard to education is not very nice. Birth and good manners are essential; but a little learning is by no means a dangerous thing in good company; on the contrary, it will do very well."

Would anyone care to add any more?
