12    4|      acquire. This overstretched sensibility naturally relaxes the other
13    4|           because it is by their sensibility that they obtain present
14    4|      blending happily reason and sensibility into one character.~ ~ And
15    4|        character.~ ~ And what is sensibility? 'Quickness of sensation;
16    4|         exercise of instinct and sensibility may be the step, which they
17    4|          must again repeat, that sensibility is not reason.~ ~ * The

25    4|          would not have had that sensibility, of which self is the centre,
26    4|          of momentary flashes of sensibility, but of affections. And,
27    4|          fine ladies, brimful of sensibility, and teeming with capricious
28    4|       the natural selfishness of sensibility expanded by reflection,
29    4|      been able to make, women of sensibility are the most unfit for this
30    4|          extremes that people of sensibility alternately fall into; always
31    5|    offspring of reason; but when sensibility is nurtured at the expence
32    5|       that forcibly held it; and sensibility, the play-thing of outward

37    5|          why let us then indulge sensibility, and laugh at the severity
38    5|     feelings, and that parade of sensibility which boys and girls should

42    6|        know how to work on their sensibility, whilst the modest merit
43    6|     quickly learn to despise the sensibility that had been excited and
44    7|     Modesty! Sacred offspring of sensibility and reason! - true delicacy
45    7|          which only exercise the sensibility; and the heart made to beat
46    7|       her education the slave of sensibility, is required, on the most
47    7|        occasions, to resist that sensibility. 'Can any thing,' says Knox, '

51    7| sensibility was surprised by her sensibility into folly - into vice;*
52    7|        when they merely vanquish sensibility. The real conquest is that
53    7|     affection, and not merely to sensibility, though she had her share. -

58    9|    nothing so painfully sharpens sensibility as such a fall in life.~ ~
59    9|         some worthy woman, whose sensibility has been rendered painfully
