Miss Melville was obliged to repeat, in the course of her tale, her kinsman's rude accusation against her, of entertaining a passion for Mr.Falkland; and this she did with the most bewitching simplicity and charming confusion.

Though this part of the tale was a source of real pain to her deliverer, yet it is not to be supposed but that the flattering partiality of this unhappy girl increased the interest he felt in her welfare, and the indignation he conceived against her infernal kinsman.
They arrived without accident at the house of the good lady under whose protection Emily desired to place herself.

Here Mr.Falkland willingly left her as in a place of security.

Such conspiracies as that of which she was intended to have been the victim, depend for their success upon the person against whom they are formed being out of the reach of help; and the moment they are detected, they are annihilated.

Such reasoning will, no doubt, be generally found sufficiently solid; and it appeared to Mr.Falkland perfectly applicable to the present case.
