When theunhappy Williams, above-mentioned, has been used in vain by Olivia, andthe squire has not declared himself, and she is on the point of keepingher word to Williams by marrying him, the Vicar creates a situation outof it all that takes the reader roundly by surprise: "I frequentlyapplauded her resolution in preferring happiness to ostentation. " Thegood Goldsmi...th! Here is Olivia perfectly frank with her father as to herexceedingly sincere preference for ostentation, and as to her stratagemto try to obtain it at the expense of honour and of neighbour Williams;her mind is as well known to her father as her father's mind is known toOliver Goldsmith, and as Oliver Goldsmith's, Dr. Primrose's, and Olivia'sminds are known to the reader.
