Metaphor in Context
MAR.
'Tis true, he does, but appearances are oft deceitful--I confess Wilville raised emotions in my breast, I had till then been a stranger to--The confusion I was in, the danger he rescued me from, attended with such a tender, respectful behaviour, beyond what I had ever seen or imagined, made too deep an impression on me ever to be erased.
