you are very silly

"Pray spare your pity, for some more deserving individual," answered Everard laughing, "I think myself the most fortunate of mortals."   "Don't come to me with your nonsense, you are very silly, and have behaved in a most dishonorable manner towards your family."   "Will you be kind enough to state in what way," replied Everard colouring, "I confess I can't see it."   "Why, in offering to that governess girl."   "You are severe."   "Oh I haven't patience with you; my sympathy is all with poor Grace, who feels quite disgraced by it."   "She cannot think so, seriously, or if she does, she ought to be ashamed.   "Hoighty, toighty, how we are coming the parson to-night."   "Pshaw," exclaimed Everard impatiently.   "I think she is justly angry and aggrieved. Of course in receiving so young and pretty a girl, as governess for your sisters, (for I allow that she is pretty.) "Oh you do," said Everard sarcastically. "Your mother" continued Lady Ashton "relied upon your honorable feelings, and good sense, but you have abused her confidence in a most cruel manner."
