2 My being the mother is the very reason why my feelings should not be tried.
3 Such opposition, as these feelings produced, was more than Anne could combat.
4 You, who have not a mother's feelings, are a great deal the properest person.
5 There was not a baronet from A to Z whom her feelings could have so willingly acknowledged as an equal.
6 But neither Charles Hayter's feelings, nor anybody's feelings, could interest her, till she had a little better arranged her own.
7 Anne herself would have found the mortifications of it more than she foresaw, and to Sir Walter's feelings they must have been dreadful.
8 Mary had no feelings to make her respect her sister's in a common way, but she was perfectly unsuspicious of being inflicting any peculiar wound.
9 Mary, very much gratified by this attention, was delighted to receive him, while a thousand feelings rushed on Anne, of which this was the most consoling, that it would soon be over.
10 Her feelings made her speak low; and Captain Wentworth, hearing only in part, and probably not having Dick Musgrove at all near his thoughts, looked rather in suspense, and as if waiting for more.
11 With all these circumstances, recollections and feelings, she could not hear that Captain Wentworth's sister was likely to live at Kellynch without a revival of former pain; and many a stroll, and many a sigh, were necessary to dispel the agitation of the idea.
