《纯爱英文馆：诺桑觉寺（英文）》与其他五部奥斯丁的长篇不同，采用了公开的叙述者和外露的作者型的叙述声音，展现了作者权威。它是奥斯丁打算出版的第一部小说，定稿完成于1797年左右，即奥斯丁大概22岁的时候。在这部小说中，作者初露锋芒，文风初步成形，就是以“一个村镇上的三、四户人家”为生活背景，以极具讽刺的笔法叙述一个婚嫁故事。
‘Ah， Catherine! Were it settled so， it would be some-what less intolerable， though in such common attentions you would have received but half what you ought. But -how can I tell you? -Tomorrow morning is fixed for your leaving us， and not even the hour is left to your choice; the very carriage is ordered， and will be here at seven o'clock， and no servant will be offered you. ' Catherine sat down， breathless and speechless.'I could hardly believe my senses， when I heard it; -and no dis-pleasure， no resentment that you can feel at this moment，however justly great， can be more than I myself -but I must not talk of what I felt. Oh ! that I could suggest any-thing in extenuation! Good God! What will your father and mother say ! After courting you from the protect:ion of real friends to this - almost double distance from your home， to have you driven out of the house， without the considerations even of decent avility ! Dear， dear Cather-ine， in being the bearer of such a message， I seem guilty myself of all its insult; yet， I trust you will acquit me， for you must have been long enough in this house to see that I am but a nominal mistress of it， that my real power is nothing. ' ' Have I offended the General?' said Catherine in a fal-tering voice. 'Alas ! for my feelings as a daughter， all that I know，all that I answer for is， that you can have given him no just cause of offence. He certainly is greatly， very geatly discomposed; I have seldom seen him more so. His tem-per is not happy， and something has now occurred to ruf-fle it in an uncommon degree; some disappointment，some vexation， which just at this moment seems impor-tant; but which I can hardly suppose you to have any concern in， for how is it possible?' It was with pain that Catherine could speak at all; and it was only for Eleanor's sake that she attempted it.I am sure，' said she， 61 am very sorry ifl have offended him. It was the last thing I would willingly have done. But do not be unhappy， Eleanor. An engagement you know must be kept. I am only sorry it was not recollected soon-er， that I might have written home. But it is of very little consequence. ' 'I hope， I earnestly hope that to your real safety it will be of none; but to everything else it is of the greatest con-sequence; to comfort， appearance， propriety， to your family， to the world. Were your friends， the Allens， still in Bath， you might go to them with comparative ease; a few hours would take you there; but a journey of seventy miles， to be taken post by you， at your age， alone， unat-tended !
