Austen Book vs. Movie Quotes I: Edward Ferrars’s proposal

Sense and Sensibility (1995), screenplay by Emma Thompson:

I have come here with no expectations, only to profess, now that I am at liberty to do so, that my heart is, and always will be, yours.

Sense and Sensibility (2008), screenplay by Andrew Davies:

I loved you at Norland, almost from our first encounter. (…) Every day since I first saw you, my love for you has grown. Elinor, I know I have no right to hope, but I must ask: Can you forgive me? Can you love me? Will you marry me?

Sense and Sensibility (1811), Jane Austen:

His errand at Barton, in fact, was a simple one. It was only to ask Elinor to marry him. (…) In what manner he expressed himself, and how he was received, need not be particularly told.
