6 But surely you may put off this old lady till to-morrow: she is not so near her end, I presume, but that she may hope to see another day.
7 It was Mary's hope and belief that he had received a positive dismissal from Henrietta, and her husband lived under the constant dependence of seeing him to-morrow.
8 He had enquired after her, she found, particularly; had expressed his hope of Miss Elliot's not being the worse for her exertions, and had spoken of those exertions as great.
