Excerpt from A Winter in London, Vol. 2 of 3: Or, Sketches of Fashion: A Novel
Lady Emily, in her open and warm ex pressions of thanks to the preserver of her life, cbetrayed nothing more than that most noble feeling of human nature - gratitude but when, as day after day unfolded to her observation some new trait of nobleness of heart, or brought to View some new beauty of an elegant mind in this graceful youth, she, who at first had been so prodigal of thanks and praise, closed with reserve her lips, and grew cautious in the very expres sion of her eyes, at those proofs of excel lence and worth which made others cla morons in their applause, - then was it that the penetration of a judicious and excellent mother discovered the important change in the heart of her daughter, 'and' felt the conviction that gratitude was growing into love.
