Pathetic, perhaps. Can you imagine the conversations when/if he is married to the Lady Rosamund (especially after she has fathomed his nature).
"I have transgressed. You must chastise me." "No." "Please correct me!" "No."
And, if he remains true to his nature, he could not raise a finger to make her do so.
I foresee a continued income stream for Mrs O'C; and a life with the consequence she so clearly deserves for Lady Rosamund (plus the education she so badly needs from Lady T.)
Will felicity be maximised by such a match? Not for Lady T., I fear.
