Quotation from: Sense and Sensibility

Written by: Jane Austen


The next morning brought a farther trial of it,
in a visit from their brother, who came with a most serious
aspect to talk over the dreadful affair, and bring them
news of his wife.


"You have heard, I suppose," said he with great solemnity,
as soon as he was seated, "of the very shocking discovery
that took place under our roof yesterday."


They all looked their assent; it seemed too awful
a moment for speech.
