An affection so amiable was advancing each in the opinion of all who
had hearts to value anything good. Henry Crawford was as much struck
with it as any. He honoured the warm-hearted, blunt fondness of the
young sailor, which led him to say, with his hands stretched towards
Fanny's head, "Do you know, I begin to like that queer fashion already,
though when I first heard of such things being done in England, I could
not believe it; and when Mrs. Brown, and the other women at the
Commissioner's at Gibraltar, appeared in the same trim, I thought they
were mad; but Fanny can reconcile me to anything"; and saw, with lively
admiration, the glow of Fanny's cheek, the brightness of her eye, the
deep interest, the absorbed attention, while her brother was describing
any of the imminent hazards, or terrific scenes, which such a period at
sea must supply.
It was a picture which Henry Crawford had moral taste enough to value.
Fanny's attractions increased--increased twofold; for the sensibility
which beautified her complexion and illumined her countenance was an
attraction in itself. He was no longer in doubt of the capabilities of
her heart. She had feeling, genuine feeling. It would be something to
be loved by such a girl, to excite the first ardours of her young
unsophisticated mind! She interested him more than he had foreseen. A
fortnight was not enough. His stay became indefinite.
William was often called on by his uncle to be the talker. His
recitals were amusing in themselves to Sir Thomas, but the chief object
In seeking them was to understand the reciter, to know the young man by
his histories; and he listened to his clear, simple, spirited details
with full satisfaction, seeing in them the proof of good principles,
professional knowledge, energy, courage, and cheerfulness, everything
that could deserve or promise well. Young as he was, William had
already seen a great deal. He had been in the Mediterranean; in the
West Indies; in the Mediterranean again; had been often taken on shore
by the favour of his captain, and in the course of seven years had
known every variety of danger which sea and war together could offer.
With such means in his power he had a right to be listened to; and
though Mrs. Norris could fidget about the room, and disturb everybody
In quest of two needlefuls of thread or a second-hand shirt button, in
the midst of her nephew's account of a shipwreck or an engagement,
everybody else was attentive; and even Lady Bertram could not hear of
such horrors unmoved, or without sometimes lifting her eyes from her
work to say, "Dear me! how disagreeable! I wonder anybody can ever go
to sea."
To Henry Crawford they gave a different feeling. He longed to have
been at sea, and seen and done and suffered as much. His heart was
warmed, his fancy fired, and he felt the highest respect for a lad who,
before he was twenty, had gone through such bodily hardships and given
such proofs of mind. The glory of heroism, of usefulness, of exertion,
of endurance, made his own habits of selfish indulgence appear in
shameful contrast; and he wished he had been a William Price,
distinguishing himself and working his way to fortune and consequence
with so much self-respect and happy ardour, instead of what he was!
The wish was rather eager than lasting. He was roused from the reverie
of retrospection and regret produced by it, by some inquiry from Edmund
as to his plans for the next day's hunting; and he found it was as well
to be a man of fortune at once with horses and grooms at his command.
