it led. Susan was only acting on the same truths
and pursuing the same systemwhich her own judgment
acknowledgedbut which her more supine and yielding temper
would have shrunk from asserting. Susan tried to be usefulwhere
she could only have gone away and cried; and that Susan was
useful she could perceive; that thingsbad as they werewould
have been worse but for such interpositionand that both her
mother and Betsey were restrained from some excesses of very
offensive indulgence and vulgarity.
In every argument with her motherSusan had in point of
reason the advantageand never was there any maternal
tenderness to buy her off. The blind fondness which was for ever
producing evil around her
she had never known. There was no
gratitude for affection past or present to make her better bear with
its excesses to the others.
All this became gradually evidentand gradually placed Susan
before her sister as an object of mingled compassion and respect.
That her manner was wronghoweverat times very wrong��her
measures often ill-chosen and ill-timedand her looks and
language very often indefensibleFanny could not cease to feel;
but she began to hope they might be rectified.
