Victorian, Romance and Jane Austen

Persuasion Quote

"For a few moments her imagination and her heart were bewitched." Persuasion

I think it is this way when ever we fall in love. My heart was always bewitched and I was like Elizabeth with Darcy. I didn't read Pride and Prejudice or know anything about Jane Austen but it plays into my imagination now.

This quote is from Persuasion and Anne loves Captain Wentworth but listened to her spinster sister Elizabeth and didn't marry him. She listened to her heart and she was bewitched and chose a life with her Captain that she loved. Love conquers all and we find this in all of Jane's stories. She knew how to put a romance novel together. She had a good imagination and had fallen in love but it never worked out for her. We can appreciate the mystery of romance that she left behind.
