ABSTRACT
While the elder brother pursued his project of re-establishing his fortune by marriage, the younger passed two days at Upwood in a state of mind such as he had never before experienced, and had not imagined possible. The scenes which he had hitherto considered as the most soothing to his taste and his imagination presented nothing now but images of his lost happiness. The charm which the presence of a beloved object had lent to them was vanished, and he no longer possessed that tranquillity which, before he had seen her among them, he had found in this lovely solitude.
