2 Of her two sisters, Mrs. Price very much more resembled Lady Bertram than Mrs. Norris.
3 The instinct of nature was soon satisfied, and Mrs. Price's attachment had no other source.

6 To save herself from useless remonstrance, Mrs. Price never wrote to her family on the subject till actually married.
7 They talked of William, a subject on which Mrs. Price could never tire; and Mr. Crawford was as warm in his commendation as even her heart could wish.
8 Mrs. Price, it appeared, scarcely ever stirred out of doors, except of a Sunday; she owned she could seldom, with her large family, find time for a walk.
9 By the end of eleven years, however, Mrs. Price could no longer afford to cherish pride or resentment, or to lose one connexion that might possibly assist her.
