章節(jié)摘錄

　　concluding with the arms and motto:‘Principal seat, Kellynch Hall, in thecounty of Somerset, and Sir Waiters handwriting again in this finale:‘Heir presumptive, William Walter Elliot, Esq., great grandson of thesecond Sir Walter.Vanity was the beginning and the end of Sir Walter Elliots character;vanity of person and of situation. He had been remarkably handsome inhis youth; and, at fifty-four, was still a very fine man. Few women couldthink more of their personal appearance than he did; nor could the valetof any new-made lord be more delighted with the place he held in society.He considered the blessing of beauty as inferior only to the blessing ofa baronetcy; and the Sir Walter Elliot, who united these gifts, was theconstant object of his warmest respect and devotion.　　His good looks and his rank had one fair claim on his attachment;since to them he must have owed a wife of very superior character toanything deserved by his own. Lady Elliot had been an excellent woman,sensible and amiable; whose judgment and conduct, if they might bepardoned the youthful infatuation which made her Lady Elliot, had neverrequired indulgence afterwards. ——She had humoured, or softened, orconcealed his failings, and promoted his real respectability for seventeenyears; and though not the very happiest being in the world herself, hadfound enough in her duties, her friends, and her children, to attach her to life, and make it no matter of indifference to her when she was called on toquit them. ——Three girls, the two eldest sixteen and fourteen, was an awfullegacy for a mother to bequeath; an awful charge rather, to confide to theauthority and guidance of a conceited, silly father. She had, however, one very intimate friend, a sensible, deserving woman, who had been brought,by strong attachment to herself, to settle close by her, in the village ofKellynch; and on her kindness and advice, Lady Elliot mainly relied for thebest help and maintenance of the good principles and instruction which shehad been anxiously giving her daughters.　　This friend, and Sir Walter, did not marry, whatever might have beenanticipated on that head by their acquaintance.——Thirteen years had passedaway since Lady Elliots death, and they were still near neighbours andintimate friends; and one remained a widower, the other a widow.
