Persuasion - Austen, Jane ยท 67 words
Vanity was the beginning and the end of Sir Walter Elliots character; vanity of person and of situation. He had been remarkably handsome in his youth; and, at fifty four, was still a very fine man. Few women could think more of their personal appearance than he did, nor could the valet of any new made lord be more delighted with the place he held in society.
