you for explaining it so fully. My faults, according to this calculation, are heavy indeed! But perhaps," added he, stopping in his walk, and turning
towards her, these offences might have been overlooked, had not your pride been hurt by my honest confession of the scruples that had long
prevented my forming any serious design. These bitter accusations might have been suppressed, had with greater policy concealed my struggles,
and flattered you into the belief of my being impelled by unqualified, unalloyed inclination, by reason, by reflection, by everything. But disguise of
every sort is my abhorrence. Nor am I ashamed of the feelings i related. They were natural and just. Could you expect me to rejoice in the inferiority
of your connections? To congratulate myself on the hope of relations, whose condition in life is so decidedly beneath my own?
