Jane Austen’s handwritten manuscript of Persuasion
a transcript of what she crossed out:
anne and the captain had not seen each other in like forever. to break the ice, the captain disrobed completely upon entering the small sitting room. this made anne feel anxious and grip the chair and feel as if the room were filled with voices and faces. she saw him. ALL of him. it was done. frederick, in vanna white fashion, kept emphasizing the place where his breeches once had been to let anne know what she had been missing out on. and anne was all, ‘le sigh.’
the lost nude scene of Persuasion. wish she had left it in.

“…a thousand feelings rushed on Anne, of which this was the most consoling, that it would soon be over. And it was soon over. In two minutes after Charles’s preparation, the others appeared; they were in the drawing-room. Her eye half met Captain Wentworth’s, a bow, a curtsey passed; she heard his voice; he talked to Mary, said all that was right; said something to the Miss Musgroves, enough to mark an easy footing; the room seemed full, full of persons and voices, but a few minutes ended it. Charles shewed himself at the window, all was ready, their visitor had bowed and was gone, the Miss Musgroves were gone too, suddenly resolving to walk to the end of the village with the sportsmen: the room was cleared, and Anne might finish her breakfast as she could.
“It is over! it is over!” she repeated to herself again, and again, in nervous gratitude. “The worst is over!”
Mary talked, but she could not attend. She had seen him. They had met. They had been once more in the same room.”

Then: “I am not fond of the idea of my shrubberies being always approachable.”
Now: “Keep your hands off my junk.”
I’m determined to believe that Sir Watler’s shrubberies and Elizabeth’s flower garden are metaphors for their cold, unsexed hearts and crotchal regions.
Jane Austen and junk: DISCUSS.
