奥斯丁全集

章节摘录

版权页：   On quitting the Cobb, they allwent in-doors with their new friends, and found rooms so small as none but those who invite from the heart could think capable of accommodating so many.Anne had a moment's astonishment on the subject herself; but it was soon lost in the pleasanter feelings which sprang from the sight of aLI the ingenious contrivances andnice arrangements of Captain Harville, to turn the actual space to the best account, to supply the deFiciencies oflodging-house furniture, and defend the windows and doors against the winter storms to be expected.The varieties in the fitting-up of the rooms, where the common necessaries provided by the owner, in the common indifferent plight, were contrasted with some few articles of a rare species ofwood, excellently worked up, and with something curious and valuable from all the distant countries Captain Harville had visited, were more than amusing to Anne; connected as it allwas with his profession, the fruit ofits labours, the effect ofits influence on his habits, the picture ofrepose and domestic happiness it presented, made it to her a something more, or less, than gratification. Captain Harville was no reader; but he had contrived excellent accommodations, and fashioned very pretty shelves, for a tolerable collection of well-bound volumes, the property of Captain Benwick.His Iameness prevented him from taking much exercise; but a mind of usefulness and ingenuity seemed to furnish him with constant employment within.He drew, he varnished, he carpentered, he glued; he made toys for the children;he fashioned new netting-needles and pins with improvements; and if everything else was done, sat down to his large fishing-net at one corner of the room. Anne thought she left great happiness behind her when they quitted the house; and Louisa, by whom she found herself walking, burst forth into raptures of admiration and delight on the character of the navy; their friendliness, their brotherliness, their openness, their uprightness; protesting that she was convinced of sailors having more worth and warmth than any other set of men in England; that they only knew how to live, and they only deserved to be respected and loved.
