![]() ![]() ![]() At fifteen her features, figure and interests improved greatly, much to her parent’s approval. At the age of ten, she was a strange unaccountable character, neither bad tempered, overly quarrelsome, seldom stubborn, very kind to little ones and loved nothing better than to roll down the green slope behind the house. Her proficiency in writing, accounts and French were not remarkable. At the age of eight years she studied piano for a year, and could not bear it. Her abilities were quite as extraordinary, not able to learn until she was taught for she was often inattentive, and occasionally stupid. She is a bit of a Tomboy preferring cricket to dolls, she has a propensity to the heroic. She has nine siblings who are healthy and in general quite plain like herself. ![]() Her mother well tempered, not ill nor did she die bringing her into the world. Her father is a respectable clergyman who does not abuse his children. No one who knew Catherine Morland would suspect that she had the potential to be a heroine. ![]()
