About
"...noble bust, the sloping shoulders, the graceful neck, the dark eyes and [brown] ringlets were all there;-but her face? Her face was like her mother's: a youthful unfurrowed likeness: the same low brow, the same high features, the same pride."" She was very showy, but she was not genuine: she had a fine person, may brilliant attainments; but her mind was poor, her heart barren by nature: nothing bloomed spontaneously on that soil; no unforced nature delighted by its freshness. She was not good; she was not original: she used to repeat sounding phrases from books: she never offered, nor had, an opinion of her own. She advocated a high tone of sentiments, but she did not know the sensations of sympathy and pity; tenderness and truth were not in her."
"...he was going to marry her, for family, perhaps political reasons, because of her rank and connections suited him...he had not given her his love, and that her qualifications were ill adapted to win from him that treasure. This was the point-this was where the nerve was touched and teased-this was where the fever was sustained and fed: She could not charm him."
"Surely she could not like him, or like him with true affection! If she did, she need not coin her smiles so lavishly, flash her glances so unremittingly, manufacture airs so elaborate, graces so multitudinous. It seemed to me that she might, by merely sitting quietly at his side, saying little and looking less, get nigher is heart."
