1 She had hardly spoken the words when Mr Elliot walked in.
2 She paused a moment to recover from the emotion of hearing herself so spoken of.
3 He had thought her wretchedly altered, and in the first moment of appeal, had spoken as he felt.
4 She had been at Bath the year before, and Lady Russell had heard her spoken of as a charming woman.
5 Upon the hint of having spoken disrespectfully or carelessly of the family and the family honours, he was quite indignant.
6 She had spoken it; but she trembled when it was done, conscious that her words were listened to, and daring not even to try to observe their effect.
7 Anne could think of no one so likely to have spoken with partiality of her many years ago as the Mr Wentworth of Monkford, Captain Wentworth's brother.
8 He had enquired after her, she found, particularly; had expressed his hope of Miss Elliot's not being the worse for her exertions, and had spoken of those exertions as great.
9 After listening to this full description of Mr Elliot, Anne could not but express some surprise at Mrs Smith's having spoken of him so favourably in the beginning of their conversation.
10 He had spoken to her with some degree of openness of Mrs Clay; had appeared completely to see what Mrs Clay was about, and to hold her in contempt; and yet Mrs Clay found him as agreeable as any body.
11 The disgrace of his first marriage might, perhaps, as there was no reason to suppose it perpetuated by offspring, have been got over, had he not done worse; but he had, as by the accustomary intervention of kind friends, they had been informed, spoken most disrespectfully of them all, most slightingly and contemptuously of the very blood he belonged to, and the honours which were hereafter to be his own.
