@@@@@
As yet Sir Thomas had seen nothing to @@@@@ As yet Sir Thomas had seen nothing to remark in MrCrawford’s behaviour; but when the whist-table broke up at the end of the second rubber, and leaving DrNorris to dispute over their last play, he became a looker-on at the other, he found his niece the object of attentions, or rather of professions, of a somewhat pointed character Henry Crawford was in the first glow of another scheme about Thornton Lacey; and not being able to catch Edmund’s ear, was detailing it to his fair neighbour with a look of considerable earnestness His scheme was to rent the house himself the following winter, that he might have a home of his own in that neighbourhood; and it was not merely for the use of it in the hunting-season (as he was then telling her), though that consideration had certainly some weight, feeling as he did that, in spite of all DrGrant’s very great kindness, it was impossible for him and his horses to be accommodated where they now were without material inconvenience; but his attachment to that neighbourhood did not depend upon one amusement or one season of the year: he had set his heart upon having a something there that he could come to at any time, a little homestall at his command, where all the holidays of his year might be spent, and he might find himself continuing, improving, and perfecting that friendship and intimacy with the Mansfield Park family which was increasing in value to him every daySir Thomas heard and was not offendedThere was no want of respect in the young man’s address; and Fanny’s reception of it was so proper and modest, so calm and uninviting, that he had nothing to censure in herShe said little, assented only here and there, and betrayed no inclination either of appropriating any part of the compliment to herself, or of strengthening his views in favour of NorthamptonshireFinding 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, to a house nominally inhabited, and go through divine service; he 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 “I repeat again,” added Sir Thomas, “that Thornton Lacey is the only house in the neighbourhood in which I should not be happy to wait on MrCrawford bowed his th | | Saturday, December 11th, 2010 | | 8:24 pm |
