Read the passage.
Elinor, this eldest daughter, whose advice was so effectual, possessed a strength of understanding, and coolness of judgment, which
qualified her, though only nineteen, to be the counsellor of her mother, and enabled her frequently to counteract, to the advantage of them all, that
eagerness of mind in Mrs. Dashwood which must generally have led to imprudence. She had an excellent heart:-her disposition was affectionate,
and her feelings were strong: but she knew how to govern them: it was a knowledge which her mother had yet to learn and which one of her
sisters had resolved never to be taught.
Marianne's abilities were, in many respects, quite equal to Elinor's. She was sensible and clever; but eager in everything her sorrows, her
joys, could have no moderation. She was
generous, amiable, interesting: she was
everything but prudent. The resemblance between her and her
mother was strikingly great.
Elinor saw, with concern, the excess of her sister's sensibility, but by Mrs. Dashwood it was valued and cherished. They encouraged each
other now in the violence of their affliction. The agony of grief which overpowered them at first, was voluntarily renewed, was sought for, was
created again and again. They gave themselves up wholly to their sorrow, seeking increase of wretchedness in every reflection that could afford it,
and resolved against ever admitting consolation in future.
