　　"It is as well, perhaps, that I have not had the possibility. Had you not been surrounded by other friends, I might have been tempted to introduce a subject, to ask questions, to speak more openly than might have been strictly correct.——I feel that I should certainly have been impertinent."

　　"Oh!" cried Jane, with a blush and an hesitation which Emma thought infinitely more becoming to her than all the elegance of all her usual composure——"there would have been no danger. The danger would have been of my wearying you. You could not have gratified me more than by expressing an interest——. Indeed, Miss Woodhouse, (speaking more collectedly,) with the consciousness which I have of misconduct, very great misconduct, it is particularly consoling to me to know that those of my friends, whose good opinion is most worth preserving, are not disgusted to such a degree as to——I have not time for half that I could wish to say. I long to make apologies, excuses, to urge something for myself. I feel it so very due. But, unfortunately——in short, if your compassion does not stand my friend——"

　　"Oh! you are too scrupulous, indeed you are," cried Emma warmly, and taking her hand. "You owe me no apologies; and every body to whom you might be supposed to owe them, is so perfectly satisfied, so delighted even——"

　　"You are very kind, but I know what my manners were to you.—— So cold and artificial!——I had always a part to act.——It was a life of deceit!——I know that I must have disgusted you."

　　"Pray say no more. I feel that all the apologies should be on my side. Let us forgive each other at once. We must do whatever is to be done quickest, and I think our feelings will lose no time there. I hope you have pleasant accounts from Windsor?"

　　"Very."

　　"And the next news, I suppose, will be, that we are to lose you—— just as I begin to know you."
