6:58 pm	@@@@@With hasty indignation, therefore, and @@@@@With hasty indignation, therefore, and a tremulous voice, she said to him, “You do not seem afraid of not keeping your countenance when I come in with a basket of provisions— though one might have supposed—but it is only as Agatha that I was to be so overpowering!” She stopped—Henry Crawford looked rather foolish, and as if he did not know what to sayTom Bertram began again— “Miss Crawford must be AmeliaShe will be an excellent Amelia “Do not be afraid of my wanting the character,” cried Julia, with angry quickness: “I am not to be Agatha, and I am sure I will do nothing else; and as to Amelia, it is of all parts in the world the most disgusting to meAn odious, little, pert, unnatural, impudent girlI have always protested against comedy, and this is comedy in its worst form And so saying, she walked hastily out of the room, leaving awkward feelings to more than one, but exciting small compassion in any except Fanny, who had been a quiet auditor of the whole, and who could not think of her as under the agitations of jealousy without great pity A short silence succeeded her leaving them; but her brother soon returned to business and Lovers’ Vows, and was eagerly looking over the play, with MrYates’s help, to ascertain what scenery would be necessary—while Maria and Henry Crawford conversed together in an under-voice, and the declaration with which she began of, “I am sure I would give up the part to Julia most willingly, but that though I shall probably do it very ill, I feel persuaded she would do it worse,” was doubtless receiving all the compliments it called for When this had lasted some time, the division of the party was completed by Tom Bertram and MrYates walking off together to 121 Jane Austen consult farther in the room now beginning to be called the Theatre, and Miss Bertram’s resolving to go down to the Parsonage herself with the offer of Amelia to Miss Crawford; and Fanny remained alone The first use she made of her solitude was to take up the volume which had been left on the table, and begin to acquaint herself with the play of which she had heard so muchHer curiosity was all awake, and she ran through it with an eagerness which was suspended only by intervals of astonishment, that it could be chosen in the present instance, that it could be proposed and accepted in a private theatre! Agatha and Amelia appeared to her in their different ways so totally improper for home representation—the situation of one, and the language of the other, so unfit to be expressed by any woman of modesty, that she could hardly suppose her cousins could be aware of what they were engaging in; and longed to have them roused as soon as possible by the remonstrance which Edmund would certainly make 122 Mansfield Park CHAPTER XV MISS CRAWFORD accepted the part very readily; and soon after Miss Bertram’s return from the Parsonage, MrRushworth arrived, and another character was consequently castHe had the offer of Count Cassel and Anhalt, and at first did not know which to chuse, and wanted Miss Bertram to direct him; but upon being made to understand the different style of the characters, and which was which, and recollecting that he had once seen the play in London, and had thought Anhalt a very stupid fellow, he soon decided for the Count Miss Bertram approved the decision, for the less he had to learn the better; and though she could not sympathise in his wish that the Count and Agatha might be to act together, nor wait very patiently while he was slowly turning over the leaves with the hope of still discovering such a scene, she very kindly took his part in hand, and curtailed every speech that admitted being shortened; besides pointing out the necessity of his being very much dressed, and chusing his coloursRushworth liked the idea of his finery very well, though affecting to despise it; and was too much engaged with what his own appearance would be to think of the others, or draw any of those conclusions, or feel any of that displeasure which Maria had been half prepared for Thus much was settled before Edmund, who had been out all the morning, knew anything of the matter; but when he entered the drawing-room before dinner, the buzz of discussion was high between Tom, Maria, and MrRushworth stepped forward with great alacrity to tell him the agreeable news “We have got a play,” said he“It is to be Lovers’ Vows; and I am to be Count Cassel, and am to come in first with a blue dress and a pink satin cloak, and afterwards am to have another fine fancy suit, by way of a shooting-dressI do not know how I shall like it 123 Jane Austen Fanny’s eyes followed Edmund, and her heart beat for him as she heard this speech, and saw his look, and felt what his sensations must be “Lovers’ Vows!” in a tone of the greatest amazement, was his only reply to Mr (Comment on this)

6:58 pm	@@@@@“Don’t forget the bank check at the Boston @@@@@“Don’t forget the bank check at the Boston Five in the morning?” “My word, can you imagine what the attorney general would say just knowing that you’d even consorted with me? Good-bye, Counselor Randolph Gates slammed the door and ran into the bedroom, to the bedside telephoneThe smaller enclosure was reassuring, as it removed him from the exposure to scrutiny inherent in larger areas—the room was more private, more personal, less open to invasionThe call he had to make so unnerved him he could not understand the pull-out flap of instructions for overseas connectionsInstead, in his anxiety, he dialed the operator “I want to place a call to Paris,” he said Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 52 6 Bourne’s eyes were tired, the strain painful as he studied the results of the computer printouts spread across the coffee table in front of the couchSitting forward, he had analyzed them for nearly four hours, forgetting time, forgetting that his “control” was to have reached him by then, concerned only with a link to the Jackal at the Mayflower hotel The first group, which he temporarily put aside, was the foreign nationals, a mix of British, Italian, Swedish, West German, Japanese and TaiwaneseEach of them had been extensively examined with respect to authentic credentials and fully substantiated business or personal reasons for entering the countryThe State Department and the Central Intelligence Agency had done their homeworkEach person was professionally and personally vouched for by a minimum of five reputable individuals or companies; all had long-standing communications with such people and firms in the Washington area; none had a false or questionable statement on recordIf the Jackal’s man was among them—and he might well be—it would take far more information than was to be found in the printouts before Jason could refine the listIt might be necessary to go back to this group, but for the moment he had to keep readingThere was so little time! Of the remaining five hundred or so American guests at the hotel, two hundred and twelve had entries in one or more of the intelligence data banks, the majority because they had business with the governmentHowever, seventy-eight had raw-file negative evaluationsThirty-one were Internal Revenue Service matters, which meant they were suspected of destroying or falsifying financial records and/or had tax havens in Swiss or Cayman Island accountsThey were zero, nothing, merely rich and not very bright thieves, and, further, the sort of “messengers” Carlos would avoid like lepers That left forty-seven possiblesMen and women—in eleven cases ostensibly husbands and wives—with extensive connections in Europe, in the main with technological firms and related nuclear and aerospace industries, all under intelligence microscopes for possibly selling classified information to brokers of the Eastern bloc and therefore to MoscowOf these forty-seven possibles, including two of the eleven couples, an even dozen had made recent trips to the Soviet Union— scratch all of themThe Komitet Gosudarstvennoi Bezopasnosti, otherwise known as the KGB, had less use for the Jackal than the PopeIlich Ramirez Sanchez, later Carlos the assassin, had been trained in the American compound of Novgorod, where the streets were lined with American gas stations and grocery stores, boutiques and Burger Kings, and everyone spoke American English with diverse dialects—no Russian was allowed—and only those who passed the course were permitted to proceed to the next level of infiltratorsThe Jackal had, indeed, passed, but when the Komitet discovered that the young Venezuelan revolutionary’s solution for all things disagreeable was to eliminate them violently, it was too much for even the inheritors of the brutal (Comment on this)
