1:38:00
however wrong
this action might be.
1:38:07
Dear, might I entreat you
to put Mr. Weston's heart at ease ?
1:38:11
He's been as worried
about you as I.
1:38:13
CouId you Iet him know
how gIad you are for Frank...
1:38:16
to have found a girI
of such steady character ?
1:38:19
I do not know how steady her character
can be, engaging herseIf to a man...
1:38:22
who pretends not to be engaged,
1:38:24
and then deceives attractive
and feeIing young women.
1:38:26
[ Door Opens ]
1:38:28
Here is the Iuckiest father
in aII of EngIand !
1:38:35
Thank you.
1:38:39
- [ Door Opens ]
- Is this not the oddest news
you've ever heard about...
1:38:43
Mr. ChurchiII and Miss Fairfax ?
1:38:45
- Had you any idea of it ?
- Can you imagine that I knew...
1:38:47
when I was encouraging you
to give way to your own feeIings ?
1:38:50
Had I known,
I wouId have cautioned you.
1:38:52
Cautioned me ? Why ?
1:38:54
You do not think that I care
about Frank ChurchiII !
1:38:58
Wha-- What do you mean ?
1:39:01
- You, you said that you Ioved a man--
- I did not name him,
1:39:04
but I hope I have deveIoped better taste
than to choose Frank ChurchiII over him.
1:39:09
Frank ChurchiII.
[ Laughs ]
1:39:12
Furthermore, I wouId never
have even dreamed of him...
1:39:14
except that you toId me
he was wonderfuI.
1:39:16
Yes, but I thought
you meant--
1:39:18
That raising my thoughts to him
was a sign of my good taste.
1:39:21
- Those were your words.
- But I meant them in reference to--
1:39:24
Without having heard them,
I wouId never have dared to hope.
1:39:26
Harriet, pIease !
1:39:28
Before we can go on,
there is something that I must cIarify.
1:39:34
Is it possibIe
that you are speaking of...
1:39:38
Mr. KnightIey ?
1:39:40
To be sure.
1:39:42
But, y-you spoke of the service
that Frank had done you...
1:39:46
- in rescuing you from the gypsies.
- I never said that.
1:39:49
I recaII it
with perfect cIarity.
1:39:52
If I spoke of being rescued,
I was thinking of Mr. KnightIey's...
1:39:55
asking me to dance
after Mr. EIton snubbed me.
1:39:58
That was when I knew
how superior a man he was.
