Sense and Sensibility Chapter XXIII

from The Austen Library · host Jane Austen

In which we observe the gentle fortitude of a young lady who, upon discovering unwelcome truths, resolves to maintain a composed exterior while navigating the delicate intricacies of honour and feeling amidst society’s tender attentions. Amidst the genteel distractions of a modest assembly, she artfully seeks an opportunity for a private discourse, betwixt the trifling amusements and the piano’s soft murmurs, to confront a matter of the heart with quiet dignity.
