The Quiet Tenour In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

Elizabeth continues to follow her crying with “what delight!” constituting to the idea that she is ecstatic and weeping for joy, not for sadness. The word rapturously, in summary, means being overjoyed.
“She had also to anticipate how her visit would pass, the quiet tenour of their usual employments, the vexatious interruptions of Mr. Collins, and the gaieties of their intercourse with Rosings,” (Austen 158).
Elizabeth was wondering how the visit go and deciphered the usual occurrences that went on. The quiet tenour can be defined as the quiet tone or course of their day to day formalities based on the context of Chapter 5.
“ She seems perfectly happy, however, and in a prudential light it is certainly a very good match for her,” (Austen 177).
