To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" I hope mamma," continued Marian, " will call-in Portman-square. I am dying to see Lady Jane. It is true, I assure you; so you need not look so full of wonder, child. Would you believe that such a pattern-lady could conde- scend to follow us in any thing ?" Miss Colville could not resist a look of incre- dulity. " Yes," said Marian, "she ac- tually has done so ; she has had a dress made after one of Caroline's, and a pe- lisse exactly like mine." The smile with which Frances re- ceived this im...portant information dilated into a downright fit of laughter, as she caught the countenance of her governess ; 164 for even Miss Colviile seemed to put some restraint upon herself, to guard against the error of her pupil. But the half-imploring look she directed towards Frances, as if entreating her to spare the giddy babbler, so completely deranged the mortified Marian, that, with some asperity, she inquired " what she had said that was so very ridiculous?" "I must deprecate your indulgence for Miss Austen, ma'am," said Miss Colvjlle: "her expectation was some- what raised ; and, unfortunately, the denouement , as I imagine, reminded her of a circumstance somewhat similar ; one with which we had both been greatly amused." Nothing could have been more vexa- tious than this apology ; which, to the if- ritated Marian, seemed invented to mor- tify her.
