1 My dear little creature, do not stay at Portsmouth to lose your pretty looks.
2 She was an altered creature, quieted, stupefied, indifferent to everything that passed.
3 Could she have been at home, she might have been of service to every creature in the house.
4 You have qualities which I had not before supposed to exist in such a degree in any human creature.
5 She must have been a happy creature in spite of all that she felt, or thought she felt, for the distress of those around her.
6 You see her every day, and therefore do not notice it; but I assure you she is quite a different creature from what she was in the autumn.
7 She said it must be such an amusement to me, as she understood I lived quite alone, to have a few living creatures of that sort; and so to be sure it will.

13 Sir Thomas was preparing to act upon this letter, without communicating its contents to any creature at Mansfield, when it was followed by another, sent express from the same friend, to break to him the almost desperate situation in which affairs then stood with the young people.
14 Henry, overjoyed to have her go, bowed and watched her off, and without losing another moment, turned instantly to Fanny, and, taking out some letters, said, with a most animated look, "I must acknowledge myself infinitely obliged to any creature who gives me such an opportunity of seeing you alone: I have been wishing it more than you can have any idea."
