Frank Churchill came back again; and if he kept his father's dinner waiting, it was not known at Hartfield; for Mrs. Weston was too anxious for his being a favourite with Mr. Woodhouse, to betray any imperfection which could be concealed2.
He came back, had had his hair cut, and laughed at himself with a very good grace, but without seeming really at all ashamed of what he had done. He had no reason to wish his hair longer, to conceal1 any confusion of face; no reason to wish the money unspent, to improve his spirits. He was quite as undaunted and as lively as ever; and, after seeing him, Emma thus moralised to herself: -
`I do not know whether it ought to be so, but certainly silly things do cease to be silly if they are done by sensible people in an impudent3 way. Wickedness is always wickedness, but folly4 is not always folly. - It depends upon the character of those who handle it. Mr. Knightley, he is not a trifling5, silly young man. If he were, he would have done this differently. He would either have gloried in the achievement, or been ashamed of it. There would have been either the ostentation6 of a coxcomb7, or the evasions8 of a mind too weak to defend its own vanities. - No, I am perfectly9 sure that he is not trifling or silly.'
With Tuesday came the agreeable prospect10 of seeing him again, and for a longer time than hitherto; of judging of his general manners, and by inference, of the meaning of his manners towards herself; of guessing how soon it might be necessary for her to throw coldness into her air; and of fancying what the observations of all those might be, who were now seeing them together for the first time.
