Sayfa 23 / 817

"I know you do: and it is that which makes the wonder. With your

good sense, to be so honestly blind to the follies and nonsense

of others! Affectation of candour is common enough; one meets

with it everywhere. But to be candid without ostentation or

design,--to take the good of everybody's character and make it

still better, and say nothing of the bad,--belongs to you alone.

And so, you like this man's sisters, too, do you? Their manners

are not equal to his."

"Certainly not, at first; but they are very pleasing women when

you converse with them. Miss Bingley is to live with her brother,

and keep his house; and I am much mistaken if we shall not find a

very charming neighbour in her."
