The Palmers are going to go to Cleveland, which is only a few miles from Bristol, which means that the girls should be within a day’s journey from home. Marianne initially resists this idea as it would bring them very close to Somersetshire, where Willoughby is based, but the thought of soon being home calms her down. Mrs. Jennings announces their departure to Colonel Brandon, and he then engaged Elanor in a deep conversation, which Mrs. Jennings confused to be a sort of proposal.What the two were actually talking about was very different. The Colonel asks about Edward’s current situation and mentions that he heard that Edward wanted to take orders. Elanor confirms this, and he follows it up by saying that the curacy in his area is recently vacated, and that if Edward would like it, he may have it. Elanor understands that she must be the one to deliver the news instead of the Colonel. Elanor then comes to say that he is sure that Lucy and he would love the job there, which confuses Colonel Brandon, and he asks if he is still insisting on marrying Lucy, as the salary of the curacy would never be enough to support a family…SEO stuff I don't want to do. Jane Austin's timeless classic Sense and Sensibility follows the story of two girls, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood, and their endeavors in love, marriage, and societal expectations. Love is not easy however, and Elinor finds her sense tested by her charming brother-in-law, while Marianne's sensibility brings her nothing but heartbreak.
