I felt a conscientious solicitude for Adele's welfare and progress, and a quiet liking for her little self: just as I cherished towards Mrs. Fairfax a thankfulness for her kindness, and a pleasure in her society proportionate to the tranquil regard she had for me, and the moderation of her mind and character.
Lelkiismeretesen neveltem és tanítottam Adèle-t, és, mondom, ha nem is viharosan, de szerettem a kislányt. Szerettem Mrs. Fairfaxet is, hálás voltam jóságáért, és örültem, ha együtt lehettem vele.
