Chapter 22 "Anne," cried Mary, still at her window, "there is Mrs. Clay, I am sure, standing under the colonnade, and a gentleman with her. I saw them turn the corner from Bath Street just now. They seem deep in talk. Who is it? Come, and tell me. Good heavens! I recollect. It is Mr. Elliot himself." |
Chapter 22 "Oh dear! very true. Only think, Miss Elliot, to my great surprise I met with Mr. Elliot in Bath Street! I was never more astonished. He turned back and walked with me to the Pump Yard. He had been prevented setting off for Thornberry, but I really forget by what; for I was in a hurry, and could not much attend, and I can only answer for his being determined not to be delayed in his return. He wanted to know how early he might be admitted to-morrow. He was full of "to-morrow," and it is very evident that I have been full of it too, ever since I entered the house and learnt the extension of your plan, and all that had happened, or my seeing him could never have gone so entirely out of my head." |
