"You see she is yet young; you observe shepossesses the ordinary form of childhood; God hasgraciously given her the shape that He has given to allof us; no signal deformity points her out as a markedcharacter. Who would think that the Evil One hadalready found a servant and agent in her？ Yet such, Igrieve to say, is the case."
"My dear children," pursued the bLack marbleclergyman, with pathos, "this is a sad, a melancholyoccasion; for it becomes my duty to warn you, that thisgirl, who might be one of God's own lambs, is a littlecastaway: not a member of the true flock, but evidentlyan interloper and an alien. You must be on your guardagainst her; you must shun her example; if necessary,avoid her company, exclude her from your sports, andshut her out from your converse. Teachers, you mustwatch her: keep your eyes on her movements, weighwell her words, scrutinise her actions, punish her bodyto save her soul: if, indeed, such salvation be possible,for （my tongue falters while I tell it） this girl, thischild, the native of a Christian land, worse than manya little heathen who says its prayers to Brahma andkneels before Juggernaut —— this girl is —— a liar！"
Now came a pause of ten minutes, duringwhich I, by this time in perfect possession of my wits, observed all the female Brocklehursts produce theirpocket-handkerchiefs and apply them to their optics,while the elderly lady swayed herself to and fro, andthe two younger ones whispered, "How shocking！"
"Let her stand half an hour longer on thatstool, and let no one speakto her during the remainderof the day."
