Dear! dear! to see how gentlefolks can afford to throw away their happiness! Now, if you were poor people, there would be none of this. To talk of unworthiness, and not caring about one another, when I know there are not such a kind-hearted lady and gentleman in the whole province, not any that love one another half so well, if the truth was spoken!
—Ann Radcliff, The Mysteries of Udulpho, Vol.4, Ch.13, p.589.
