    @@@@@ And so saying, she walked hastily out of
    @@@@@ And so saying, she walked hastily out
    of the room, leaving awkward feelings to more than one, but exciting
    small compassion in any except Fanny, who had been a quiet
    auditor of the whole, and who could not think of her as under the
    agitations of jealousy without great pity
    A short silence succeeded her leaving them; but her brother soon
    returned to business and Lovers’ Vows, and was eagerly looking over
    the play, with MrYates’s help, to ascertain what scenery would be
    necessary—while Maria and Henry Crawford conversed together
    in an under-voice, and the declaration with which she began of, “I
    am sure I would give up the part to Julia most willingly, but that
    though I shall probably do it very ill, I feel persuaded she would do
    it worse,” was doubtless receiving all the compliments it called for
    When this had lasted some time, the division of the party was
    completed by Tom Bertram and MrYates walking off together to

    Jane Austen
    consult farther in the room now beginning to be called the Theatre,
    and Miss Bertram’s resolving to go down to the Parsonage herself
    with the offer of Amelia to Miss Crawford; and Fanny remained
    alone
    The first use she made of her solitude was to take up the volume
    which had been left on the table, and begin to acquaint herself with
    the play of which she had heard so muchHer curiosity was all
    awake, and she ran through it with an eagerness which was suspended
    only by intervals of astonishment, that it could be chosen in
    the present instance, that it could be proposed and accepted in a
    private theatre! Agatha and Amelia appeared to her in their different
    ways so totally improper for home representation—the situation
    of one, and the language of the other, so unfit to be expressed
    by any woman of modesty, that she could hardly suppose her cousins
    could be aware of what they were engaging in; and longed to
    have them roused as soon as possible by the remonstrance which
    Edmund would certainly make
    122
    Mansfield Park
    CHAPTER XV
    MISS CRAWFORD accepted the part very readily; and soon after Miss
    Bertram’s return from the Parsonage, MrRushworth arrived, and
    another character was consequently castHe had the offer of Count
    Cassel and Anhalt, and at first did not know which to chuse, and
    wanted Miss Bertram to direct him; but upon being made to understand
    the different style of the characters, and which was which,
    and recollecting that he had once seen the play in London, and had
    thought Anhalt a very stupid fellow, he soon decided for the Count
    Miss Bertram approved the decision, for the less he had to learn the
    better; and though she could not sympathise in his wish that the
    Count and Agatha might be to act together, nor wait very patiently
    while he was slowly turning over the leaves with the hope of still
    discovering such a scene, she very kindly took his part in hand, and
    curtailed every speech that admitted being shortened; besides pointing
    out the necessity of his being very much dressed, and chusing
    his coloursRushworth liked the idea of his finery very well,
    though affecting to despise it; and was too much engaged with what
    his own appearance would be to think of the others, or draw any of
    those conclusions, or feel any of that displeasure which Maria had
    been half prepared for
    Thus much was settled before Edmund, who had been out all the
    morning, knew anything of the matter; but when he entered the
    drawing-room before dinner, the buzz of discussion was high between
    Tom, Maria, and MrRushworth stepped forward
    with great alacrity to tell him the agreeable news
    “We have got a play,” said he“It is to be Lovers’ Vows; and I am
    to be Count Cassel, and am to come in first with a blue dress and a
    pink satin cloak, and afterwards am to have another fine fancy suit,
    by way of a shooting-dressI do not know how I shall like it
    123
    Jane Austen
    Fanny’s eyes followed Edmund, and her heart beat for him as she
    heard this speech, and saw his look, and felt what his sensations
    must be
    “Lovers’ Vows!” in a tone of the greatest amazement, was his only
    reply to MrRushworth, and he turned towards his brother and sisters
    as if hardly doubting a contradiction“After all our debatings and difficulties, we
    find there is nothing that will suit us altogether so well, nothing so
    unexceptionable, as Lovers’ VowsThe wonder is that it should not
    have been thought of beforeMy stupidity was abominable, for here
    we have all the advantage of what I saw at Ecclesford; and it is so
    useful to have anything of a model! We have cast almost every part
    “But what do you do for women?” said Edmund gravely, and looking
    at Maria
    Maria blushed in spite of herself as she answered, “I take the part
    which Lady Ravenshaw was to have done, and” (with a bolder eye)
    “Miss Crawford is to be Amelia

    "Well, why ain't they?" Gallagher askedHe pushed his helmet farther back on his head"It's just like the bastards to have us wait up on deck where we can have our fuggin heads blown off

    The davit machinery was complicated, and a portion of it hung over the waterWhen a man was harnessed into a pack and web belt and carried a rifle and two bandoliers and several grenades, a bayonet and a helmet, he felt as if he had a Tiffany Earrings tourniquet over both shoulders and across his chestIt was hard to breathe and his limbs kept falling asleepClimbing along the beam which led out to the landing craft became an adventure not unlike walking a tightrope while wearing a suit of armor

    to cut your payOn the other hand, I couldn’t, because I don’t believe you for an instant Conklin spoke quietly, angrily“This is a setup,” he added, staring at the
    overweight analyst
    “That’s quite a balenciaga handbag statement, Alex,” countered DeSole“Would you mind explaining it?”
    “You know why I’m here, don’t you?”
    “I didn’t know you were hereIt just happened to be convenient for you to be ‘down the hall’ and ready to come in
    here
    “My office is down the hallQuite far down, I might add
    Conklin looked at the DCI“Again, very smooth, sirBring in three people womens rolex watches you figure I’ve had
    no major run-ins with outside of the system itself, three men you’ve determined I basically trust, so
    I’ll believe whatever’s said
    “That’s fundamentally accurate, MrConklin, because what you’ll hear is the truthPerhaps at this end of the table so that our former colleague can study us as we
    explain to himI understand it’s a chanel white j12 watch technique favored by field officers
    “I haven’t a damn thing to explain,” said the analyst as he headed for the chair next to Casset
    “But in light of our former colleague’s somewhat gross remarks, I’d like to study himAre you
    well, Alex?”
    “He’s well,” answered the deputy director named Valentino“He’s snarling at the wrong
    shadows but he’s spy bag fendi well
    “That information couldn’t have surfaced without the consent and cooperation of the people in
    this room!”
    “What information?” asked DeSole, looking at the DCI, suddenly widening his large eyes
    behind his glasses“Oh, the max-classified thing you asked me about this morning?”
    The director nodded, then looked at Conklin“Let’s go back to this replica cartier morning

    @@@@@ When she had spoken it, she recollected
    @@@@@
    When she had spoken it, she recollected herself, and wished it
    unsaid; but there was no need of confusion; for her brother saw her
    only as the supposed inmate of Mansfield parsonage, and replied

    Jane Austen
    but to invite her in the kindest manner to his own house, and to
    claim the best right in her
    “You must give us more than half your time,” said heGrant to have an equal claim with Fanny and myself,
    for we shall both have a right in youFanny will be so truly your
    sister!”
    Mary had only to be grateful and give general assurances; but she
    was now very fully purposed to be the guest of neither brother nor
    sister many months longer
    “You will divide your year between London and
    Northamptonshire?”
    “Yes
    “That’s right; and in London, of course, a house of your own: no
    longer with the AdmiralMy dearest Henry, the advantage to you of
    getting away from the Admiral before your manners are hurt by the
    contagion of his, before you have contracted any of his foolish opinions,
    or learned to sit over your dinner as if it were the best blessing
    of life! You are not sensible of the gain, for your regard for him has
    blinded you; but, in my estimation, your marrying early may be the
    saving of youTo have seen you grow like the Admiral in word or
    deed, look or gesture, would have broken my heart
    “Well, well, we do not think quite alike hereThe Admiral has his
    faults, but he is a very good man, and has been more than a father
    to meFew fathers would have let me have my own way half so
    muchYou must not prejudice Fanny against himI must have them
    love one another
    Mary refrained from saying what she felt, that there could not be
    two persons in existence whose characters and manners were less
    accordant: time would discover it to him; but she could not help
    this reflection on the Admiral“Henry, I think so highly of Fanny
    Price, that if I could suppose the next MrsCrawford would have
    half the reason which my poor ill-used aunt had to abhor the very
    name, I would prevent the marriage, if possible; but I know you: I
    know that a wife you loved would be the happiest of women, and
    that even when you ceased to love, she would yet find in you the
    liberality and good-breeding of a gentleman
    The impossibility of not doing everything in the world to make
    258
    Mansfield Park
    Fanny Price happy, or of ceasing to love Fanny Price, was of course
    the groundwork of his eloquent answer
    “Had you seen her this morning, Mary,” he continued, “attending
    with such ineffable sweetness and patience to all the demands of
    her aunt’s stupidity, working with her, and for her, her colour beautifully
    heightened as she leant over the work, then returning to her
    seat to finish a note which she was previously engaged in writing for
    that stupid woman’s service, and all this with such unpretending
    gentleness, so much as if it were a matter of course that she was not
    to have a moment at her own command, her hair arranged as neatly
    as it always is, and one little curl falling forward as she wrote, which
    she now and then shook back, and in the midst of all this, still
    speaking at intervals to me, or listening, and as if she liked to listen,
    to what I saidHad you seen her so, Mary, you would not have
    implied the possibility of her power over my heart ever ceasing
    “My dearest Henry,” cried Mary, stopping short, and smiling in
    his face, “how glad I am to see you so much in love! It quite delights
    meRushworth and Julia say?”
    “I care neither what they say nor what they feelThey will now see
    what sort of woman it is that can attach me, that can attach a man
    of senseI wish the discovery may do them any goodAnd they will
    now see their cousin treated as she ought to be, and I wish they may
    be heartily ashamed of their own abominable neglect and unkindness
    They will be angry,” he added, after a moment’s silence, and in
    a cooler tone; “

    “What did she say, Alex?”
    “It seems your brother-in-law wanted it that wayShe didn’t elaborate, and other than sounding
    like one harried mommy, she was the perfectly normal Marie I know and love—which means she
    only wanted to hear about you
    “Which means you told her I was perfectly fine, didn’t you?”
    “Hell, yesI said you were holed up under guard going over a lot of computer printouts, sort of a

    “I don’t believe it,” said the retired intelligence officer in a quiet, doubting voiceHe even called them soldier boys, and he wasn’t memorializing them in song
    He verbally dismissed the admirals and the generals as gold-braided debutantes who wanted every

    @@@@@Finding by whom he was observed, Henry
    @@@@@Finding by
    whom he was observed, Henry Crawford addressed himself on the
    same subject to Sir Thomas, in a more everyday tone, but still with
    feeling
    “I want to be your neighbour, Sir Thomas, as you have, perhaps,
    heard me telling Miss PriceMay I hope for your acquiescence, and
    for your not influencing your son against such a tenant?”
    214
    Mansfield Park
    Sir Thomas, politely bowing, replied, “It is the only way, sir, in
    which I could not wish you established as a permanent neighbour;
    but I hope, and believe, that Edmund will occupy his own house at
    Thornton LaceyEdmund, am I saying too much?”
    Edmund, on this appeal, had first to hear what was going on; but,
    on understanding the question, was at no loss for an answer
    “Certainly, sir, I have no idea but of residenceBut, Crawford,
    though I refuse you as a tenant, come to me as a friendConsider
    the house as half your own every winter, and we will add to the
    stables on your own improved plan, and with all the improvements
    of your improved plan that may occur to you this spring
    “We shall be the losers,” continued Sir Thomas“His going, though
    only eight miles, will be an unwelcome contraction of our family
    circle; but I should have been deeply mortified if any son of mine
    could reconcile himself to doing lessIt is perfectly natural that you
    should not have thought much on the subject, MrBut a
    parish has wants and claims which can be known only by a clergyman
    constantly resident, and which no proxy can be capable of
    satisfying to the same extentEdmund might, in the common phrase,
    do the duty of Thornton, that is, he might read prayers and preach,
    without giving up Mansfield Park: he might ride over every Sunday,

    might be the clergyman of Thornton Lacey every seventh day, for
    three or four hours, if that would content himHe
    knows that human nature needs more lessons than a weekly sermon
    can convey; and that if he does not live among his parishioners, and
    prove himself, by constant attention, their well-wisher and friend,
    he does very little either for their good or his ownCrawford bowed his acquiescence

    only house in the neighbourhood in which I should not be happy to
    wait on MrCrawford bowed his thanks
    “Sir Thomas,” said Edmund, “undoubtedly understands the duty of
    a parish priestWe must hope his son may prove that he knows it too
    Whatever effect Sir Thomas’s little harangue might really produce
    on MrCrawford, it raised some awkward sensations in two of the
    215
    Jane Austen
    others, two of his most attentive listeners—Miss Crawford and
    FannyOne of whom, having never before understood that Thornton
    was so soon and so completely to be his home, was pondering with
    downcast eyes on what it would be not to see Edmund every day;
    and the other, startled from the agreeable fancies she had been previously
    indulging on the strength of her brother’s description, no
    longer able, in the picture she had been forming of a future Thornton,
    to shut out the church, sink the clergyman, and see only the respectable,
    elegant, modernised, and occasional residence of a man
    of independent fortune, was considering Sir Thomas, with decided
    ill-will, as the destroyer of all this, and suffering the more from that
    involuntary forbearance which his character and manner commanded,
    and from not daring to relieve herself by a single attempt
    at throwing ridicule on his cause
    All the agreeable of her speculation was over for that hourIt was
    time to have done with cards, if sermons prevailed; and she was glad
    to find it necessary to come to a conclusion, and be able to refresh
    her spirits by a change of place and neighbour

    @@@@@But at least in the past it had not cut
    @@@@@But at least in the past it had not cut across too many ranksA captain might argue with a major, or a major with a lieutenant colonel, but no lieutenants had been correcting colonels
    Lieutenant Hearn was aware of thatHe was aware of a great many things, but even a stupid man would have known that a second lieutenant, indeed the only second lieutenant in Combined Headquarters, did not go around picking fightsBesides, he knew he was resentedThe other officers considered it a piece of unwarranted good fortune that he should have been assigned to the General as his aide when he had joined the outfit only toward the end of the Motome campaign
    Beyond all this, Hearn had done little to make friendsHe was a big man with a shock of black hair, a heavy immobile faceHis brown eyes, imperturbable, stared out coldly above the short blunted and slightly hooked arc of his noseHis wide thin mouth was unexpressive, a top ledge to the solid mass of his chin, and his voice was sharp with a thin contemptuous quality, rather surprising in so big a manHe would have denied it at times but he liked very few people, and most men sensed it uneasily after talking to him for a few minutesHe was above all the kind of man other men love to see humiliated
    It would only be common sense for him to keep his mouth shut, and yet for the last ten minutes of the meal, the sweat had dripped steadily into his food, and his shirt had become progressively damperMore and more he had been resisting the impulse to mash the contents of his plate against the face of Lieutenant Colonel ConnFor the two weeks they had been eating in this tent, he had sat with seven other lieutenants and captains at a table adjacent to the one where Conn was talking nowAnd for two weeks he had heard Conn talk about the stupidity of Congress (with which Hearn would agree, but for different reasons), the inferiority of the Russian and British armies, the treachery and depravity of the Negro, and the terrible fact that Jew York was in the hands of foreignersOnce the first note had been sounded, Hearn had known with a suppressed desperation exactly how the rest of the symphony would followUntil now he had contented himself with glaring at his food and muttering "stupid ass," or else staring up with a look of concentrated disgust at the ridgepole of the tentBut there was a limit to what Hearn could bearWith his big body jammed against the table, the scalding fabric of the tent side only a few inches away from his head, there was no way he could avoid looking at the expressions of the six field officers, majors and colonels, at the next tableAnd their appearance never changedThey were infuriating
    There was Lieutenant Colonel Webber, a short fat Dutchman, with a perpetual stupid good-natured grin which he interrupted only to ladle some food into his mouthHe was in command of the engineer section of the division, reputedly a capable officer, but Hearn had never heard him say anything, had never seen him do anything except eat with ferocious and maddening relish whatever slop had been delivered to them that day out of the endless cans
    Across the table from Webber were the "twins," Major Binner, the Adjutant General, and Colonel Newton, the Regimental Commander of the 460t
