The gentleman on his side too had a daughter, who in the sweetness of temper and carriage was the exact likeness of her own mother, whose death he had so much lamented, and whose tender care of the little girl he was in hopes to see replaced by that of his new bride. Indeed, in temper and behavior, they perfectly resembled their mother they did not love their books, and would not learn to work in short, they were disliked by everybody. These she brought up to be proud and idle. She had two daughters with a former husband. Unfortunately, however, the lady he chanced to fix upon was the proudest and most haughty woman ever known she was always out of humor with everyone nobody could please her, and she returned the civilities of those about her with the most affronting disdain. Finding himself quite unhappy about her loss, he resolved to marry a second time, thinking by this means he should be as happy as before. There was once a very rich gentleman who lost his wife and having loved her exceedingly, he was very sorry when she died.
