Excerpt from The Spitfire, Vol. 3 of 3: A Tale of the Sea

It sounds strangely in my ears, the re quest that I should marry your father, and you yourself are a mother you might call me your child's grandmother; and that, said Laura, archly, would make me look a young and inte resting bride.

Although, my dear Laura, that might sound strangely, as you say, divest it of all imagination, and the difference is really nothing very alarming. My father married when he was only twenty, and, at this moment, I am not yet that, age you are nineteen - so that all the immense difference is only twenty years.
