ties； are not plain； they are indeed quite as pretty as Jane's daughters； the only ugly face in the young troop belongs to a fine…spirited little fellow； to whom it is of no consequence at all； as he has just discarded his petticoats for ever。 Perhaps both father and mother are pleased that such is the case； the feeling would seem to be one of those weaknesses which will linger about every parent's heart。 Yet Elinor acknowledges that she is herself a happy woman without beauty； and Harry； loving her as he does for a thousand good reasons； and inclinations； and partialities； sometimes actually believes that he loves her the better for that plain face which appeals to his more generous feelings。 Many men will always laugh at an ugly woman； and the idea of loving her； but is it an error in Hazlehurst's biographer to suppose that there are others who； placed in similar circumstances； would feel as Harry felt？
