Excerpt from Clarissa or the History of a Young Lady, Comprehending the Most Important Concerns of Private Life, and Particularly Showing the Distresses That May Attend the Mis-Conduct Both of Parents and Children in Relation to Marriage, Vol. 8 of 8
Dear madam, said your brother, be so good as to think you have more children than this ungrateful one.
Yet your sister seemed affected.
Your uncle Harlowe, wiping his eyes, O cousin, said be, if one thought the poor girl was really so ill -
She must, said your uncle Antony. This is written to her private friend. God forbid she should be quite lost!
Your uncle Harlowe wished they did not carry their resentments too far.
I begged, for God's sake, wringing my hands, and with a bended knee, that they would permit me to go up to you; engaging to give them a faithful account of the way you were in. But I was chidden by your brother ; and this occasioned some angry words between him and Mr. Morden.
I believe, sir, I believe, madam, said your sister, to her father and mother, we need not trouble my cousin to read any more. It does but grieve and disturb you. My sister Clary seems to be ill: I think, if Mrs. Norton were permitted to go up to her, it would be right.
