 them civilly enough. This was why he had such good--though possibly such rather colourless--manners; this was why, above all, he could regard himself, in a greedy world, as decently--as in fact perhaps even a little sublimely--unselfish. Our point is accordingly that he valued this character quite sufficiently to measure his present danger of letting it lapse, against which he promised himself to be much on his guard. He was quite ready, none the less, to be selfish just a little, since surely no more charming occasion for it had come to him. "Just a little," in a word, was just as much as Miss Bartram, taking one day with another, would let him. He never would be in the least coercive, and would keep well before him the lines on which consideration for her--the very highest--ought to proceed. He would thoroughly establish the heads under which her affairs, her requirements, her peculiarities--he went so far as to give them the latitude of that name--would come into their intercourse. FOR HIM TO MAKE THEM AND HE LISTENED TO THEM CIVILLY ENOUGH THIS IS WHY HE HAD SUCH GOOD THOUGH POSSIBLY SUCH RATHER COLORLESS MANNERS THIS WAS WHY ABOVE ALL HE COULD REGARD HIMSELF IN A GREEDY WORLD AS DECENTLY AS IN FACT PERHAPS EVEN A LITTLE SUBLIMELY UNSELFISH OUR POINT IS ACCORDINGLY THAT HE VALUED THIS CHARACTER QUITE SUFFICIENTLY TO MEASURE HIS PRESENT DANGER OF LETTING IT LAPSE AGAINST WHICH HE PROMISED HIMSELF TO BE MUCH ON HIS GUARD HE WAS QUITE READY NONE THE LESS TO BE SELFISH JUST A LITTLE SINCE SURELY NO MORE CHARMING OCCASION FOR IT HAD COME TO HIM JUST A LITTLE IN A WORD WAS JUST AS MUCH AS MISS BARTRAM TAKING ONE DAY WITH ANOTHER WOULD LET HIM HE NEVER WOULD BE IN THE LEAST COERCIVE AND WOULD KEEP WELL BEFORE HIM THE LINES ON WHICH CONSIDERATION FOR HER THE VERY HIGHEST OUGHT TO PROCEED HE WOULD THOROUGHLY ESTABLISH THE HEADS UNDER WHICH HER AFFAIRS HER REQUIREMENTS HER PECULIARITIES HE WENT SO FAR AS TO GIVE THEM LATITUDE OF THAT NAME WOULD COME INTO THEIR INTERCOURSE
